Chapter 107: Watching a Movie
Evening
Hearing that the machine repair factory was going to show a movie, the whole area became lively.
Every household hurried to eat, preparing to go join in the fun.
In this era, entertainment activities were scarce, and watching a movie was a rare form of entertainment.
"Watching a movie!"
"Mom! Is dinner ready! The movie is about to start!"
"Husband, hurry up!"
"Where did the stool go?"
A group of children in the courtyard cheered and rushed out, and the adults were also anxious.
Cao Cao Weiguo led Song Song Yulan to the outside of the machine repair factory.
The crowd was as dense as porridge.
Song Song Yulan grabbed Cao Cao Weiguo's arm nervously: "Husband, there are too many people here!"
Cao Cao Weiguo smiled: "Don't be afraid of many people, Brother Xu saved us seats."
Passing through the dense crowd, Cao Cao Weiguo took Song Song Yulan straight to the location of the projector.
"Cao Weiguo! Wife!"
"Come, sit here!"
Xu Xu Damao saw the couple and immediately welcomed them enthusiastically.
He took the couple to the best viewing position, where a few empty benches were left.
Xu Xu Damao wiped the bench with his sleeve: "Sit! This position is the most comfortable for watching movies!"
Cao Cao Weiguo and Song Song Yulan sat down amidst the envious gazes of the crowd.
Song Song Yulan said happily: "Thank you, Brother Xu."
It was her first time watching a movie from such a good position.
Before in the village, she could only watch from afar, or watch from a haystack.
She couldn't see clearly, couldn't hear clearly, and could only vaguely see people moving back and forth.
Xu Xu Damao smiled: "What kind of relationship do I have with Cao Weiguo, don't be polite with me, sister-in-law."
Cao Cao Weiguo grabbed a few pieces of coconut candy from his pocket and stuffed them to Xu Xu Damao:
"Brother Xu, have a few while showing the movie."
Xu Xu Damao smiled: "Coconut candy, this is a rare thing."
The two were talking when Qin Qin Huairu came over with Banggen on her back.
"Qin Qin Huairu, you can't sit here!"
Xu Xu Damao said urgently: "These are seats I saved for the leaders!"
Qin Qin Huairu said pitifully: "Xu Damao, have pity on Banggen, he can't stand for a long time with this leg."
If it were anything else, Xu Xu Damao would definitely please Qin Qin Huairu.
But these seats were for him to please and flatter the leaders, which related to his human relations and future.
Xu Xu Damao said: "Sister Qin, these seats really won't work, I already talked to the leaders, I can't let myself lose credibility with the leaders."
If these stools were let Banggen and his mother sit, what would happen when the leaders came?
Without the leaders' seats, how would he mix in the future?
Although this Qin widow was very beautiful, her future was more important!
He weighed the importance in his heart.
Banggen pointed at Cao Cao Weiguo and his wife unhappily: "Then why can they sit?"
Cao Cao Weiguo's eyes turned cold immediately: "Who are you pointing at? Do you believe I'll break your hand!"
Banggen was scared and hurriedly put his hand down.
Qin Qin Huairu said angrily: "Cao Cao Weiguo, Banggen is still a child, how can you be like this!"
Cao Cao Weiguo said coldly: "Children should be strictly disciplined, let him know what politeness is."
Seeing this, Xu Xu Damao hurriedly said: "Sister Qin, take Banggen somewhere else, the leaders will be here soon, don't make it difficult for me."
Banggen said unconvinced: "They can sit here, I want to sit here too."
Xu Xu Damao glared at Banggen: "What are you! Get out of here!"
Qin Qin Huairu said angrily: "Xu Xu Damao, say that again!"
She didn't care about herself!
But she couldn't let her son be bullied!
Xu Xu Damao threatened with an ugly expression: "Qin Qin Huairu, don't force me to turn over old accounts!"
This sentence made Qin Qin Huairu timid in her heart.
She had taken advantage of Xu Xu Damao quite a bit, and there were quite a few filthy transactions.
Although the transactions weren't completed, if Xu Xu Damao turned them over.
She wouldn't be able to be a person!
"Go then! Who cares about sitting here."
Qin Qin Huairu left, supporting Banggen with a face full of unhappiness.
Banggen glared at Xu Xu Damao and Cao Cao Weiguo with hatred.
In a short while, several cadres from the rolling mill and machine repair factory arrived here.
"Director Cao! You came so early!"
"Director Liu!"
"Director Cao, who is this?"
"This is my wife, Song Song Yulan."
"So that's sister-in-law, you see this is our first meeting, and I didn't bring a gift."
"Hahaha... Director Liu is too polite."
Cao Cao Weiguo chatted with several cadres, and Song Song Yulan sat on the side, feeling a bit cramped.
She rarely went out since she married over.
It was her first time seeing so many people, so she couldn't help but be a bit shy.
Fortunately, there weren't many leaders watching the movie, and their attitudes were very kind.
The Second Master, standing in the crowd, looked at Cao Cao Weiguo with jealousy.
He dreamed of chatting and laughing with a group of cadres!
Cao Cao Weiguo took a handful of coconut candy from his pocket: "Come, try this coconut candy."
Several cadres each took a piece, and everyone could taste something fresh.
"Coconut candy!"
"This is a specialty from the south!"
"Hey! This taste is really fragrant."
Eating the coconut candy, several cadres were both curious and happy.
Director Feng said: "Brother Cao is capable, being able to get such rare things."
Cao Cao Weiguo smiled: "A friend gave it to me, let me taste something fresh."
Section Chief Guo of the security section came over: "Director Cao, I want to ask you for a favor."
Cao Cao Weiguo said: "Section Chief Guo, why be polite, just say it if you have something, I will definitely help if I can."
Section Chief Guo said: "My younger brother is getting married, he wants to buy a bicycle, but he's worried about not being able to get a ticket. Can you exchange the ticket the factory rewarded you with for me? Don't worry, I definitely won't let you down."
Cao Cao Weiguo laughed heartily: "Hey, I thought it was something else, just take this ticket as my gift."
Saying that, Cao Cao Weiguo took out the bicycle ticket from his pocket and handed it to Section Chief Guo.
Section Chief Guo retreated quickly: "This won't do, this gift is too valuable."
Cao Cao Weiguo grabbed Section Chief Guo's hand and stuffed the bicycle ticket into it.
"Is Section Chief Guo being polite with me? Or looking down on me?"
Section Chief Guo held the bicycle ticket and said quickly: "Director Cao, what are you saying, I'm not being polite, and I wouldn't dare look down on Director Cao, it's just that this bicycle ticket is too valuable."
Cao Cao Weiguo said: "Since Section Chief Guo says so, then accept the ticket, call me brother in the future, this ticket is the wedding gift I give to our brother."
Section Chief Guo said: "Brother is righteous! I'll keep this favor in my heart!"
Director Feng laughed loudly: "Hahaha... you brothers, stop being polite here, let's find a good place for our brothers to have a good drink in the future."
Section Chief Guo said generously: "Don't wait for the future, tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, I'll invite the brothers to Donglaishun to eat hot pot and drink good wine."
Cao Cao Weiguo smiled: "Then I'm in for a treat!"
Director Feng gave a thumbs up: "Section Chief Guo is generous!"
Other directors and deputy directors also flattered and cheered.
While talking, the movie started.
A group of people chatted and laughed while watching "Little Soldier Zhang Ga."
Song Song Yulan watched this movie for the first time, watching intently, and occasionally laughed at the interesting plot.
Because she was too fascinated, she didn't even have time to eat the melon seeds sent by Xu Xu Damao.
Cao Cao Weiguo watched for a few moments and then chatted with several directors while eating melon seeds.
Talking about various interesting things inside and outside the factory.
