Exciting 1979!

Chapter 191 A Teapot and Four Cups (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

"Blow?"

Wei Ming quickly pulled sister-in-law Mu Rong aside and asked her to elaborate.

Mu Rong was happy: "Why are you so obviously happy?"

Wei Ming looked worried: "Really? I feel really sorry for Sister Lin!"

Mu Rong curled her lips and then told her what she had learned from her former colleague.

"In fact, they had already decided to get married on National Day this year before the Lunar New Year. After all, they are not young anymore. However, Sister Lin was filming a drama and they were separated for half a year. They even rarely communicated with each other. The man started to get suspicious. After all, the male actors in the drama are all good-looking. He suspected that Sister Lin had fallen in love with him because of the drama."

Wei Ming: "There are no emotional scenes in her play."

"But he doesn't know. Although he has doubts, he didn't say he doesn't want to talk about it anymore. He just asked to get married in advance and get the certificate."

Wei Ming: "Sister Lin didn't agree?"

"No, she said she wants to take the acting class at the Film Academy."

This year, Beijing Film Academy began recruiting amateur actors for advanced performance classes. Zhu Lin also got the news from Ma Jingwu. She hopes to transform from an amateur to a professional.

Mu Rong said, "When the man heard this, he got anxious. He actually didn't want Sister Lin to continue being an actress, but Sister Lin was very insistent. Then they broke up after arguing for a while."

Wei Ming fell into deep thought. Zhu Lin also filmed "Traitor" in his previous life, and then he started a family and was admitted to the amateur acting class of Beijing Film Academy.

But the same experience in this life turned out like this, and the biggest variable should be him.

Maybe I used my extra energy to write letters to myself and didn't consider my fiancé's feelings.

As the saying goes, it is better to demolish a temple than to ruin a marriage. How can I compensate Sister Lin?

Mu Rong added, "Because of this incident, Sister Lin and her family are very unhappy. Now she has moved to the company dormitory, which is where I used to live."

"Ah!" It turned out to be so serious.

But it's normal to think about it. A girl who is almost 30 years old and is finally going to get married and start a family, but she is obsessed with being an actress and going to school.

I guess her parents must have suspected that something was going on with their daughter on the set.

Wei Ming shook his head. Sister Lin was too pitiful now. He should go to her for help later.

The message had been conveyed, and Mu Rong continued to go to the kitchen to help Lu Xiaoyan.

The two of them were washing vegetables when they discovered a problem.

"You don't even have any bowls, chopsticks or plates in your house, how are you going to cook and eat?" Mu Rong said.

Wei Ming: "I used to have some, but I didn't want to use other people's food, so I just threw it away."

Aunt Xiaoyan immediately scolded him for spending money.

But these will be there. After a while, Zhao Debiao and Mei Wenhua came back, carrying two stacks of plates, bowls, and chopsticks, all brand new.

They bought these with their own money, and they considered them as gifts for Brother Ming's new house.

Aunt Xiaoyan took a look and praised: "Great, there is a "囍" character on the plate."

Mei Wenhua said mischievously: "This style is quite expensive. We thought that if we buy it now, we won't have to buy it when Brother Ming gets married in the future."

Lu Xiaoyan laughed and said, "You guys are thinking too far ahead."

Not long after, Liu Zhenyun also arrived. He not only brought his girlfriend Guo Jianmei, but also Liang Zuo.

The fat boy Liang Zuo wanted to eat for free, but he also showed his sincerity and brought Wei Ming a color TV ticket that his family didn't need as a gift.

As expected of the eldest son of the deputy editor-in-chief of People's Daily, he is very generous!

Although Wei Ming has no money to buy a color TV now, this gift is still very precious. Otherwise, he will have to exchange it for foreign exchange coupons and buy it at the Friendship Store in the future.

Liang Zuo looked at Wei Ming's new home. It was awesome. It was really awesome! It was not much different from his home. He would have to tell his mother about it. She was also a novelist. How could the difference in their income be so big?

Liu Zhenyun joked, "Brother Liang's gift is a color TV ticket, and my gift is Brother Liang, it's quite substantial, right?"

Guo Jianmei pinched him, then took out the real gift for the couple from the door.

Guo Jianmei bought a pair of bright red thermoses. The festive red color matches the plates very well, so she won’t have to buy more when she gets married in the future.

Liu Zhenyun bought a set of teapots and four teacups. He felt that for a contemporary celebrity like Wei Ming, drinking tea was a must.

This reminded Wei Ming of Gu Hongming's famous remarks about men and women being like teapots and teacups.

But four teacups are a bit too few, as there are so many guests coming today.

After Liu Zhenyun and his group, Liu Rulong also came. He was holding a large box and said, "The security guards here are really responsible. They even checked what I brought with me."

"Then what exactly did you bring? It's not a TV, is it?!" Biaozi asked. He saw that the box was square.

Aaron: "How can I afford that? And I don't have a ticket."

Liang Zuo: “I have.”

Aaron: "..."

Wei Ming opened the box himself, and it turned out to be a wood sculpture, a wood sculpture of Black Cat Sheriff, and Black Cat Sheriff was riding a motorcycle, which was the same model as his own.

"I spent more than two months making this thing in my spare time." Aaron said. He originally wanted to give it to Wei Ming, the father of Black Cat Sheriff, on his birthday after he finished it.

It happened to be Wei Ming's housewarming celebration today, so I gave it to him in advance. Because it was a bit rushed, it hasn't been painted yet, and the eyes haven't been dotted, but the shape is very lifelike, especially the details of the motorcycle are very outstanding. A Long said, "I'll give it to you today, and I'll take it away when I leave. I'll give it to you after it's painted, polished, and polished."

Wei Ming liked this gift very much, but the one who appreciated this work the most was Xizi, the number one fan of Black Cat Sheriff. He began to pester Brother A Long to make one for him.

"I don't want such a big one, a smaller one will do."

Aaron spread his hands and said, "But I didn't bring any wood or a knife. Maybe next time. I'll definitely do it next time."

"I brought it!" Xizi took out a plastic bag from his mother's bag, which contained a large lump of clay.

There is no wood, but there is clay, which can be molded with hands. This is not a problem for Aaron. He can't help with cooking, so he can help take care of the children.

So he and his two children started making clay figures in the bathroom.

Because I have two children, I can't favor one over the other, so in addition to making a Black Cat Sheriff for Xizi, I also want to make an Egg Boy for Lele.

Lele is very disgusted. Dansheng looks like Xizi, so she doesn't want him. She would rather have little Nezha.

While Aaron was taking care of the baby, Wei Ming and the others were discussing who would be the head chef. In the end, they decided that everyone who could cook should show off their skills and each person should serve a specialty dish, so that everyone would feel involved.

In addition, the cooked food such as pork elbows, pork heads, sausages, etc. bought by Wei Ming would be enough.

Liu Zhenyun said with some regret: "My specialty is carp noodles, but you don't have any carp, which limits my ability. So I'll just make stewed noodles."

Guo Jianmei: "Then I can make scrambled eggs with tomatoes."

Liang Zuo thought, oh no, someone else has already cooked the only dish he knows how to cook, but it doesn't bother him: "Then I'll make fried eggs with tomatoes."

Mei Wenhua: "Cold cucumber salad."

Biaozi: "Cold shredded potatoes."

It can be seen that these two are experts in making cold dishes.

Wei Ming: "I'll make the Mapo Tofu that my mother taught me. Since you can't eat spicy food, I'll make it slightly spicy."

Mu Rong said: "Don't worry, just add as much as you want, I can eat spicy food especially now."

Lu Xiaoyan joked, "Sour boy, spicy girl. You couldn't eat spicy food before. It looks like you're going to give birth to a little girl this time."

Speaking of this, Qiao Feng behind the group sighed slightly. Although he felt that his daughter would love her very much, he and his wife both wanted to have a son to carry on the family line. This concept was deeply rooted in their minds.

At this time, someone knocked on the door again. Guessing that it was the leader, Qiao Feng hurriedly opened the door, and it was indeed Wei Ping'an.

"Xiao Qiao, come and help." There were two people behind Wei Ping'an. They were carrying an extra-large piece of furniture, a bookshelf!
Wei Ping'an came late to do this. He went to several trust stores before buying this antique bookshelf, which was a housewarming gift for his nephew.

How can a great writer not have a decent bookshelf at home?

This bookshelf has a nice shape, large capacity, and is well maintained. Although it is old, it only looks old and not broken, and instead looks elegant and majestic.

Fortunately, the door of Wei Ming's house was relatively high, so the bookshelf could be pushed in. Wei Ping'an had estimated the height of the door frame when he came here before, and the bookshelf he bought was just right.

Wei Ming hurried over to take a look, touched the bookshelf carefully, and liked it very much.

"It looks like it's made of rosewood. Uncle, this thing is not cheap!"

Wei Pingan waved his hand: "I bought it from a trust store. The seller was in a hurry to sell it, so the price was lowered several times. It's nothing."

Wei Ming saw that there were words on it. Although they were a little blurry, he could still vaguely recognize them. According to his understanding, this was at least an ancient artifact from the Qing Dynasty.

It seems that trust stores still have good stuff. As long as you go there a few more times and get familiar with their managers, you will always be able to get good stuff.

Wei Ming has a relatively calm attitude towards collecting, but who doesn’t like to have some beautiful things at home?

The appearance of this bookshelf immediately elevates this empty big house to a higher level. In the future, I will definitely get some furniture, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings of the same level to match it.

Several men were discussing the bookshelf when Lele's voice suddenly came from the bathroom.

It turned out that Xizi accidentally knocked her Nezha off, and his face fell to the ground, now Nezha has a round face. A Long is trying to remedy the situation, but no matter how hard he tries, the child is still ugly and cute.

Wei Ping'an quickly picked up his daughter and comforted her. A Long lamented that the clay sculpture was still unstable, so he went back to make her a wooden one.

After working for half a day, dinner was finally served at six o'clock.

Including the two children, there are 13 people in total. If there is a long table, we can cosplay "The Last Supper".

Fortunately, the round table they bought was big enough so that everyone could barely sit down. However, Aunt Xiaoyan, Sister-in-law Mu Rong, and Guo Jianmei finished their meal early and took the two children to play in another room, allowing the men to drink, smoke and chat to their heart's content.

At first, Biaozi and Xiaomei were a little reserved when facing school leaders like Wei Ping'an, but after a few drinks they relaxed and talked about their experiences in the south in great detail.

As a half-Cantonese, Aaron did not steal their limelight. He stood next to Wei Ming and told him quietly.

"We have completed the first part of 'Heroes of Ancient Times Emerge from Youth' and have brought you the draft. You can take a look at it later."

"Okay, if that's okay, stay and I'll vote for you."

Anyway, Sister Xue is going back to Shanghai, so just let her take it back; it will be safer.

These drawings are the result of a month's hard work by several big boys and are worth hundreds of dollars.

At around eight o'clock, when the old men and big boys finished their last glass of wine, the warm pot banquet came to an end. Wei Ming turned off the soft music playing on the tape recorder, and the music ended, and everyone dispersed, expecting to meet again another day.

Everyone left, and Wei Ming was left alone to clean up the mess at home. Only then did he feel how lonely the house was, and how much it needed a woman.

Should I look for Sister Xue first tomorrow, or should I look for Sister Lin first?
