Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 88 The Rabbit and the Ostrich Girl

Mao Chunhua's mother is Wen Guizhen, a worker in the workshop of Ping County Woolen Mill.

"From what you said, this young man is really capable." After hearing her husband's introduction, Wen Guizhen let go of her worries a lot, and was quite satisfied with He Ping's situation.

"Then the child you mentioned has been living with Xiao He from now on?" After all, she is a mother, no matter how enlightened she is, she is still a little worried about the son-in-law who is a fool.

"Probably, no one can say for sure, maybe someone's own father will come to the door in the future. You have to look at everything on both sides. Being able to treat a child with no blood relationship like this also shows He Ping's character. .” Director Mao reassured.

"That's true, that's..." Wen Guizhen didn't continue. Director Mao understood what she meant. Her daughter is a big girl, and she will be a mother when she enters the house. It's hard to say.

"Children have their own blessings, as long as the festival is not bad, leave the rest to God."

Director Mao is very open about this matter. The most important criterion for him to find a son-in-law is character, followed by ability. He Ping has both. The rest of the shortcomings are just nitpicking. After all, the daughter's happiness is the most important thing. , otherwise all this is just wishing for something.

He Ping entered the movie theater with Mao Chunhua, and it was the first time he entered a movie theater in this era.In later generations, the movie theaters in the small county town of his hometown were demolished very early, and the movie theaters in the shopping malls built later were completely different from the previous movie theaters.

Movie theaters in this era do not have the exquisite decorations of later generations, nor do they have snacks or human-shaped signboards. There is only one ticket seller and one ticket checker at the entrance.

He Ping and the others came relatively late, the auditorium was almost full, and the two finally found two vacant seats in the corner of the back row.

"There are quite a lot of people." He Ping said, looking at the dark heads ahead.

"The movie theater is like this, no matter when there are so many people." Mao Chunhua said as usual.

In this era, people's entertainment content is still relatively scarce. For young people who go to work, movies are one of the more common and cheap ways, and they are also one of the most important means of dating. There is also a well-known means of entertainment that everyone should know. I've heard - rolling the road.

The movie hasn't started yet, but the lights in the auditorium have gone out, and it's so dark that you can't see anything clearly.

He Ping touched the chair under him. This is much better than showing movies in the open air. At the very least, there is a chair with a back, so that the wind and rain can’t catch it. The most important thing is that it’s warm to watch movies indoors in this weather. ah!
As for other hardware conditions, it is basically fine to play movies in the open air, with the same curtain and the same sound.

After waiting for a few minutes, the movie began to show, the subtitles came out, and people's voices gradually decreased until they disappeared. Watching movies is still a relatively sacred thing these days. Everyone is more involved in watching movies, for fear of missing a part of the plot.

Today's movie is "Youth", directed by Xie Jin. He Ping also knew it from the subtitles. This is the first time He Ping has watched the work of this famous director who only exists in the news.

The plot of "Youth" is quite simple. A farmer's daughter who grew up in Emerald Ridge has been deaf and dumb for 13 years. The PLA medical team came to the village to support and cure the dumb girl's deafness. The dumb girl is grateful to dang and ** ***, put on the military uniform and joined the army, contributing youth to the revolution.

He Ping has never seen this movie, but the first time he saw it, it felt good. At least it was better than those of the younger generation and youth. It would be better if there was less preaching. He Ping also found a familiar face in it—Chen Chong, At that time, Chen Chong and He Ping were completely two people in the impression, their faces were full of collagen.

He Ping's gratitude was a little miraculous, but also a little inexplicably sad. Chen Chong was still the same Chen Chong, but he could never go back.

Since the beginning of the movie, Mao Chunhua's attention has not been on the movie, all her attention has been focused on He Ping, and her mind is full of what Liu Aixia said when she gave her the movie ticket, what "men chase women across the mountain" , women chasing men's interlayer gauze", "good men are afraid of pestering women", bah, I don't know where I learned these nonsense.

Although he spurned his friend in his heart, Mao Chunhua looked at He Ping with disappointment.She looked carefully, and saw his shining eyes in the darkness, staring at the screen with full concentration, not paying attention to the reactions of the people around him at all, and there seemed to be a little sadness in his eyes.

"It's really engaging! Did you think of something sad? Why are you frowning." Mao Chunhua thought to himself.

At this time, there was a rustling sound from the corner of the last row. Mao Chunhua listened carefully, as if she was smacking her lips, and then she seemed to realize something, her cheeks became hot, and she gave a bah, cursing inwardly. Face.

He Ping, who was immersed in the plot, was also brought back to his senses by the sound coming from behind, and he understood what was going on as soon as he heard it.

This restless youth!
He Ping turned his head to look at Mao Chunhua beside him, his eyes met each other in the darkness, Mao Chunhua shyly avoided his eyes.

The ancients always said that looking at beauties under the light, in fact, seeing beauties in a movie theater has a different flavor. He Ping seemed to be able to see Mao Chunhua's blushing cheeks and ears through the dim light, and a sudden impulse surged in his heart. After groping for two seconds, he tightly grasped a pair of catkins.

Mao Chunhua, who was already nervous, almost jumped up when He Ping grabbed her hand, but she immediately suppressed the impulse, and felt the man's generous and powerful big hand tightly holding her little hand. , There is a sense of dizziness.

Seeing Mao Chunhua's shortness of breath, He Ping almost turned his head 360 degrees. He was extremely shy.

He understood her nervousness and let go of her hand, wrapping his arms around her shoulders and drawing her closer to him.

At this time, Mao Chunhua had no intention of resisting at all, just like an ostrich, he buried his head in He Ping's arms and remained motionless.

He Ping hugged the beauty, and he was very grateful to the buddies in the back row. If you want to say it, you have to be a young man. Let alone the firepower, the key is to be shameless. The movie theater is full of people, and they dare to kiss me in public. I.Now that people have done a good job for He Ping, he can't be cowardly, everyone is young.

In the second half of the movie, Mao Chunhua only remembered the sound. In fact, she didn't really watch the first half of the movie. She focused all her attention on He Ping. How could she care about watching a movie?

By the end of the movie, everyone had almost left, she slowly raised her head from He Ping's arms, and looked at He Ping timidly.

He Ping looked at those eyes like autumn water, and couldn't help pecking lightly.

"Oh!" This time Mao Chunhua stopped pretending to be an ostrich, and ran away like a frightened rabbit.
