After scanning the aquarium with those bright, clear and curious eyes, he lowered his head and saw a group of small turtles in the basin.
He reached out and quickly grabbed a small turtle, stuffed it into his pocket, then ran over and picked up a fish tank...
The reflection of the sun on the glass swept across the store as he dodged, and all the tropical fish flashed brightly;
The little turtles in the enamel basin were so frightened that they all shrank their limbs; one or two customers looked back unconsciously.
At the same moment, the big-eared cow Luo Jiner disappeared outside the store...
There was a background sound in the screening room, accompanied by the voice: "FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE! FIRE!"
The joyful and cheerful melody of "Danoon" suddenly sounded.
The big-eared cow's little head, wearing the glass jar, ran home excitedly like an astronaut landing on the moon.
Accompanied by Danoon's music, Luo Jin Er walked on the street with his hands open and wearing a fish tank.
Brazil was huddled in the pocket of his school uniform, rising and falling with the steps of the big-eared cow, stumbling, with a confused look on his face.
"We'll be danoon we'll dance on the moon.
"Its' gonna happen very soon It's gonna happen very soon..."
Along with the singing, the streets of old Hong Kong Island continued to swim to both sides through the fisheye-like glass tank, like a set of rippling scenery, printed on the face of the big-eared cow. The big-eared cow ran happily, he
Holding the Brazilian turtle in his little hand, it flew high and low in front of the glass tank, like a navigator. The little turtle was in mid-air, subconsciously stretching out its head and limbs, ready to land at any time. It was both cute and pitiful...
The camera suddenly became clear, the store sign "Luoji Leather Shoes" appeared, the cheerful music stopped abruptly, and the big-eared cow's body trembled and stopped.
He took off the glass jar, put it behind him, shouted: "Dad", and walked into the store.
Father Luo was busy with his back to him and asked casually: "Little brother, what did you teach in school today?"
"Chinese and English." The big-eared cow sat down carefully and answered.
"What do we teach in Chinese?" Luo's father asked again as his hands were busy and he was not reincarnated.
"Chinese!"
"What about English?"
"English!
"
"Yeah!" Father Luo didn't even have any doubts about this answer.
Many viewers in the theater couldn't help laughing.
Meng Qiguang's eyes turned red involuntarily as he watched the father and son's bizarre questions and answers on the big screen.
These two lines are what he wrote in his memoirs.
For a moment, he seemed to have returned to his childhood.
The melody of the music suddenly became interesting.
The camera showed a close-up of the big-eared cow's face.
"This is my dad, he is very busy!"
Along with Big Ear Niu's narration, the camera showed Luo's father's work, where he was nailing the soles of his shoes.
"I keep my head down all day, and the cat is working behind the shoes. Sometimes he rushes to deliver goods, and I don't see him for several days."
Father Luo was wearing an old pilling sweatshirt and was peeling the soles of his shoes. Due to his long-term work habits, the handle of the knife used to shovel the soles of his shoes was pressed against it. There was a hole in his chest, and there was another hole inside.
A circular scar caused by years of work.
"But don't be afraid. Every time I see him, he is still my dad!"
There was a burst of drama from the radio, and Father Luo's face appeared in front of the camera. He had indeed been making shoes with his head down, but he was still humming along with the voice on the radio.
An adult came outside with three children to buy shoes: "Hey, let's buy shoes!"
The character played by Luo Xian seems a bit not very smart.
Father Luo didn't even raise his head, and continued his work while shouting: "Buying shoes! Hello!"
A nimble and cheerful woman walked quickly from the simple kitchen stove in the alley. She was the mother of the big-eared cow.
"Buy shoes, come right away!"
"These three pairs are the treasures of our store. You look so cool when you put these shoes on, kids!"
Mother Luo's next operation explains what is called tongue-splitting lotus.
The first shoe size was too big, and she said it was suitable because of "wide shoes and tight socks".
The second shoe size was too small. She also said that it was American precious pigskin, which had good elasticity and would be more comfortable as it wore on.
The third one is neither big nor small, so it is naturally the most suitable.
Although not very smart customers also raised their own doubts: "Loose is suitable, tight is suitable, and suitable is suitable?"
"So, they are all suitable. I bought all three pairs, right? It's a total of eighteen and a half yuan. They all belong to my neighbors. I count you eighteen!"
Successfully sold three pairs of leather shoes. Although the customer played by Luo Xian was a little confused, he still bought three pairs of shoes.
"This is my mother. She has the most powerful talk. She can do anything from waiting in line at the hospital to jumping in line to get water or bargaining with the bus driver. Once she gets involved, she can do anything!" Big-eared Cow watched her mother sell.
He looked like coaxing the children with his shoes, grinning and the narration sounded as promised.
"That's why my mother has a nickname, Mrs. Luo!"
These two paragraphs of introduction to parents are told through the innocent voice of a seven-year-old child, and the things happening around him are viewed from the perspective of a child like Big Eared Cow.
Seven years old also has a moral meaning, using a child without any worries to look at everything happening around him with a nihilistic attitude. The advantage of this is that it can make it easier for the audience to integrate into the movie, and use a child without any position or attitude.
Look at the whole story from a different perspective.
Because there is no preset position in the world of children, they always look at the world with innocent eyes.
In the eyes of the younger brother, his father always kept his head down and did his work. Sometimes he liked to listen to old dramas that he didn't understand. In that era when machine production gradually replaced the handicraft industry, his father still worked purely by hand.
In his father's body, his father always retained the shadow of the era when mainlanders worked hard and stuck to their duties. Compared with his old-fashioned father, he felt that his mother was a smart, capable and righteous "Mrs. Luo".
Maintain an optimistic and uplifting spirit in everything, one step is difficult, the other is better; one must always believe in life. This is not only Mrs. Luo's philosophy as a person, but also the spiritual philosophy of mainlanders of that era who went to Hong Kong Island to work hard.
It can be said that for many viewers in the theater at this moment, Father Luo and Mother Luo not only represent themselves, but also represent people of an era.
Because many people who came to Hong Kong Island from the mainland at that time had similar characteristics and spirits.
They all started from scratch, worked hard, and stuck to their duties. This is the spirit that many Hong Kong residents from the lowest level to even some big shots once had.
