MTL - Accidentally born in the ’60s-Chapter 41
Ming Bei looked up and saw Zhen Zhen's gloomy smile, and then looked at Mao Ni, who was all over the floor and trembled in fear. This old Li family’s favorite food is Zhen Zhen. Although Mingnan and Mingbei are also thinking about eating all day long, they are usually greedy for meat. Any kind of chicken, rabbit meat, roe deer meat is good as long as it is meat. It's big fat pork, one bowl every day will not get tired of it. Zhen Zhen is different. Although she also likes to eat meat, she can't eat much. She prefers snacks like pine nuts, hazelnuts, and wild fruits. She can't wait to eat these things as meals all day long.
In Mingbei's impression, when Zhen Zhen was more than one year old, she was always in the hands of all kinds of wild fruits and dried fruits. Several brothers in the family usually tease her and make trouble with her. Dare to harm her snacks, Zhen Zhen designated to bring her family to Hao, and then watched with schadenfreude as Nian smoked them with a cigarette bag and pot.
It was because Mrs. Li saw that Zhen Zhen liked to eat, so she deliberately found some seeds and planted a dozen or so trees on the edge of her yard. In all, she didn't harvest many melon seeds in autumn. I tried to fry a handful, I ate it for almost a year and there were still more than two or two left. Zhen Zhen thought about watching a movie today, so she specially asked my sister-in-law to fry and bring it, but all of them fell to the ground without eating.
"Should I pick it up and wash it for you before you eat it?" Ming Bei also felt distressed when he saw the melon seeds all over the ground, but the melon seeds were covered with soil, and it was estimated that Zhen Zhen would not be able to pick them up. Eat, this little girl loves to be clean.
Zhen Zhen's swish eyes and knives frightened Ming Bei to hold on to the bicycle and dare not move, just like when he met Rhubarb that day, it looked too scary. Gritting his teeth, Ming Bei reluctantly took out a dime: "If I give you a dime, you can buy something delicious."
Zhen Zhen glanced at the dime and disliked it very much: "What's the use, melon seeds are only two or two per person during the festival, I don't even have a ticket with a dime, I can do it for what?"
Mingbei looked at the 40 cents left in his hand distressedly: "The movie ticket is 17 cents, you can give me some leftovers."
Zhen Zhen looked at Ming Bei: "Okay, I don't want a penny. When I get home, I'll tell my father and my milk that you dropped me on a bicycle."
"Give it, I'll give it." Mingbei looked at the gross ticket in his hand tangled, and after thinking for a long time, he stuffed it with a dime: "I'll give you another cent, the movie ticket is myself. Put four cents on it, that's it."
Zhen Zhen stretched out her hand and took the two cents and put it in her pocket, patted the car seat happily: "It's okay, if you fall on me again, I can tell my father to go. "
Ming Bei shrank his neck when he heard it: "Don't tell my father, in his eyes, this bicycle is more kissable than my own son."
Zhen Zhen rolled her eyes at him: "What nonsense is telling the truth!"
"Puchi..." A crisp laughter came, Ming Bei and Zhen Zhen followed the sound and looked to the side, it turned out that the little girl in red was watching the two of them happily.
Seeing the two of them turn their heads, the little girl was a little embarrassed: "The sound of your fall was so loud just now that I was startled, and when I was about to come over to help you, the two of you started bickering. , I'm embarrassed to interrupt you, are you all right?"
Mingbei smirked twice, scratched his head, didn't know what to say, his ears and neck were red.
Zhen Zhen really didn't understand what this sentence didn't mean to blush, but seeing Ming Bei's appearance, her mind was probably blank, she hurriedly greeted the little girl: " Hello, sister, I'm sorry I scared you just now."
"It's alright, it's good that you didn't break." The little girl touched her braids and smiled: "You guys are going to the movies? You have to hurry up, the movie starts at 9:30 , it's probably nine o'clock."
Zhen Zhen didn't have a watch and didn't know the time, but it was almost 8:30 when they went out, so it would be past 9:00 anyway. Ming Bei came back to his senses, pulled out a rag from under the seat to wipe the dirt off the car body, straightened the handlebars, and hurriedly called Zhen Zhen to get in the car: "Hurry up, or we'll be late."
Zhen Zhen looked back at Ming Bei, and quickly asked the girl: "Miss, do you go to the movies too? Or you can sit on the back seat of the bicycle and let my brother take us with you. , or you'll be late."
The girl gave Li Mingbei a blushing look, and waved her hands again and again: "No need, hurry up, it's not far away, and I have a ready-made ticket to go in and watch it. "
Zhen Zhen glanced at the girl regretfully: "Okay, let's see you later." Ming Bei blushed at the girl, and quickly said "goodbye" as he rode his car and jumped out.
Zhen Zhen didn't pay attention, Ming Bei had already ridden seven or eight meters away, and Zhen Zhen jumped on the spot in anger: "Li Mingbei, do you dare to ride faster."
Only then did Mingbei realize that he had forgotten about Zhen Zhen, and hurriedly braked and waited for Zhen Zhen to jump on the back seat and started running again, two kilometers away, Li Mingbei was stunned to ride it in five minutes, Zhen Zhen patted Ming Bei's back with a puzzled face: "Why are you riding so fast?"
Mingbei smiled stupidly: "I'm a little embarrassed."
Zhen Zhen stared at him speechlessly, not knowing what to say, Ming Bei found a shady place to lock the bicycle, and bought two movie tickets with the money, hurriedly brought Zhen Zhen went in.
The movie that the Hydrolysis Factory Cinema recently showed was "Mine Wars". The Beicha area is far away, and the new movie was released later than other places. I heard Mingdong say that the movie theater in Bingcheng last summer "Mine Warfare" has just started, but Beicha has only been shown here for two months.
Although there are several rows and several seats on the movie ticket, they basically sit casually. Mingbei and Zhen Zhen came a little late, and the cinema was almost full. Ming Bei stretched his neck and saw that there were still a few seats in the first row, he pulled Zhen Zhen and was about to go forward. Zhen Zhen pulled him over with all her might and led him directly to the last row to sit down.
Ming Bei grinned and rubbed his arms: "Why are you so energetic, old girl, I never dragged you just now."
"Natural, otherwise rhubarb can listen to me like that." Zhen Zhen opened her cloth bag in the eyes of Ming Bei's worship, took out the water bottle and took a sip of honey water, then took out another He put the small boxy garbage box he folded on his lap, grabbed a handful of pine nuts from the cloth bag, and ate it.
In order to make it easier to eat pine nuts and hazelnuts while watching a movie, Zhen Zhen used her powers to make a slit in these pine nuts and hazelnuts when she was at home. Throwing a pine nut in her mouth, Zhen Zhen looked at everything around her curiously, this cinema has only one auditorium, which can accommodate about a hundred people, with a simple movie curtain hanging on the stage, and most of the people watching the movie are around. Some children, chatteringly discussing the plot of the movie.
The two teenage children sitting in front of Zhen Zhen seemed to have watched it more than once. If anyone loses, please take a look."
"Okay, let's compare, I've seen it seven times, I'll lose to you if I don't believe it."
Zhen Zhen's face was black, seven times a movie was not enough, and she was preparing for the eighth brush, just like the tap water of the 1960s.
The movie is about to start, and people are coming in one after another, but at this time, people like to squeeze forward to watch movies, and there are still a few vacancies in the last row.
Suddenly a red figure came in from the exit, and Mingbei's eyes, who had been absent-minded, immediately lit up. He stood up and seemed to wave to others, but suddenly remembered something, and sat down a little embarrassed. .
Zhen Zhen pursed her lips while eating pine nuts, the girl looked around and didn't seem to find a good place, so she walked towards the last row. Ming Bei stared at her nervously swallowing saliva, turned his head to the other side in a panic, and pretended not to see it.
Zhen Zhen was amused by Mingbei's cramped look, when Mingbei didn't know what to do, the lights suddenly went out, a ray of light hit the movie curtain, Mingbei subconsciously twisted He glanced to the side and saw the girl sitting next to him through the faint light of the curtain.
Although Zhen Zhen watched many old anti-Japanese movies when she was a child, she was impressed by "Tunnel Warfare" and could hum the theme song in it. The clips are basically unimpressive, so from the beginning of the movie, Zhen Zhen was attracted, except for the pine nuts that were kept peeling with her hands, her eyes never left the screen.
Mingbei can’t watch a movie all year round, this time, he still followed Zhen Zhen, but he couldn’t concentrate at this time, when he thought of sitting next to a man in red clothes beautiful girl, his palms were sweating.
Zhen Zhen was completely immersed in the movie at this time, she didn't even eat pine nuts, she held her water bottle and laughed like chickens and pigs for a while, and the noisy Mingbei couldn't help it Focus on watching. After the movie was over, the lights turned on again, and Mingbei finally came to his senses. When he thought of a girl sitting next to him, he wanted to stick himself on a chair, and he was so nervous that he didn't even dare to move his head.
Zhen Zhen wiped the tears from her laughter, wrapped the pine nut shell she had eaten, turned her head and said hello to the girl next to her: "Hello, Miss, we meet again."
"Hello." The girl saw Zhen Zhen's long white and tender like a doll, and was very enthusiastic to her: "You are not from the hydrolysis factory, you look raw."
"Well, my father is a grain depot, and my family lives on the south side of the railway." Zhen Zhen handed her own cloth bag to Ming Bei, and quickly introduced herself: "This is my brother's name Li Ming. Bei, my name is Li Mingzhen."
"My name is Yu Wanqiu." Seeing someone coming to clear the field, Yu Wanqiu quickly stood up, and didn't forget to call Zhen Zhen, "Let's go out and talk."
Following the flow of people to the outside of the cinema, Li Mingbei hurriedly pushed his bicycle, Zhen Zhen pulled Yu Wanqiu and said, "Sister Wanqiu, I used to go to the hydrolysis factory to go to the bath, other I haven't visited the place well, is there anything interesting here in your factory?"
"Yes, we are the boss of the supply and marketing agency. Shopping is a little looser than outside. You don't need a ticket for small bits and pieces. Would you like me to take you to take a look?" Yu Wanqiuyi It looks like she has a hearty and enthusiastic temperament, and she doesn't think that Zhen Zhen is young, the two people who talk to her can talk.
The Hydrolysis Plant Supply and Marketing Cooperative is not far from the cinema, it is only a ten-meter walk away. There are also things that come in to watch the fun. Yu Wanqiu was afraid that Zhen Zhen would be crowded, so she eagerly took her hand and looked at each counter.
Everything that has passed through life has to use tickets, but needles and threads, face and hands, notebook erasers, etc. are more loose. Zhen Zhen also had 70 cents in her pocket, 50 cents was secretly stuffed by Mrs. Li, and the remaining 20 cents came from Mingbei. In this day and age, 70 cents is a lot of money, Zhen Zhen Zhen touched her pocket, she really wanted to spend the money.
Walking around the supply and marketing agency, Zhen Zhen's eyes fixed on the high-end candies and high-end pastries in the glass cabinet. The biscuits and fruit candies she usually eat at home are bought with tickets. Therefore, I can't buy much, I can have a pack of cookies or a few pieces of candy a month. In addition, there is also a kind of high-grade milk candy and egg cake on the counter that can be bought without a ticket, which does not require a certificate and is unlimited.
Zhen Zhen pointed to the milk candy and asked the salesperson: "Auntie, how do you sell the milk candy?"
The salesperson looked her up and down, and when she saw that she was neatly dressed, she smiled a little: "Two cents a dollar."
“How much is that pastry?” Zhen Zhen asked again.
"Egg cake, a dime."
Zhen Zhen looked at Ming Bei and blinked her eyes seriously: "But I want to try it." Although this thing is not necessarily better than later generations, but it has been worn in this era. If I don't try everything, I always feel bad.
Mingbei reluctantly pulled out of his pocket, only to find out five cents: "I only have enough to buy you two pieces of candy."
Zhen Zhen smiled and glanced at him, then turned around: "I have money." Then she took out seventy cents from her pocket and handed it to the salesman: "Auntie, I have money. I want six cakes and five milk candies."
The salesperson wrote a ticket and asked Zhen Zhen to pay the money, here she helped her wrap the cake and milk candy, Mingbei looked at Zhen Zhen without blinking and spent seven The dime, distressed and straight pumped: "You can buy one piece and try it, and you also buy six yuan, oh, it's a waste of money."
Zhen Zhen smiled and put the cake in the cloth bag, and handed a piece of milk candy to Ming Bei: "I bought it back for my milk, mother, sister-in-law, and meat buns to taste, we're good It’s easy to come out, so you have to be one person at a time.”
Mingbei waved his hand while holding the milk candy: "I don't want to eat it. If I eat so badly that I can't sleep at night, I'll leave it to you."
Zhen Zhen looked at Mingbei Zhile and took out another piece of land for Yu Wanqiu: "Sister Wanqiu, please have some candy."
Yu Wanqiu quickly waved his hand and said, "You can keep it for yourself, I'll buy it if I want."
"I don't care what you bought yourself, this is what I invited you." Zhen Zhen couldn't help but put the milk candy into her hand: "Next time I come to the hydrolysis factory, I want to play with you Well, do you dislike me for being young and don't want to take care of me so you don't eat my candy?"
Yu Wanqiu was amused by Zhen Zhen, she took the milk candy, peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in her mouth: "Thank you for the candy."
I watched a movie and went shopping, then went to noon, Zhen Zhen was afraid of waiting for them to eat at home, so she didn't dare to delay any more, after saying goodbye to Yu Wanqiu, she quickly let Ming Bei ride car home.
As soon as she entered the yard, Zhen Zhen jumped up from the back seat of the bicycle and ran into the house while shouting: "Mother, Mom, I'll buy you something delicious."
The meat bun heard the voice and stood up from the kang, stretched his neck and looked out: "What did Auntie buy?"
Zhen Zhen took out an oiled paper bag from the cloth bag and opened it carefully: "The cake is made of egg white noodles and sugar, you can smell it or not."
The meat bun lay on the top and smelled it lightly. She couldn't help but opened her mouth and took a bite, her eyes lit up instantly: "Delicious!"
"It's delicious, isn't it!" Zhen Zhen pinched the chubby face of the meat bun, and pointed to the one he had bitten: "This is yours, aunt didn't wash your hands and you took it yourself. "
The meat bun picked up one and looked at the other reluctantly: "I want to eat two meat buns."
"No, each person can only eat one." Zhen Zhen washed her hands and put it into Mrs. Li's mouth: "Milk, try the cake I bought."
Mr. Li hid back in a hurry: "I don't eat it, what an expensive thing, you can keep it for yourself."
"One piece per person, you can try it. If you don't eat it, I won't eat it either." Carefully took a small bite, and hurriedly handed the rest to Zhen Zhen: "Just take a bite of milk and taste it, it's a waste if you eat too much."
When they arrived at Wang Sufen and Osmanthus, the two of them were reluctant to even try it. Zhen Zhen was a little frustrated with the small cake. She had several boxes of gold bars on the mountain. It would be nice if there was any way I could get more food to use. Looking down at her body, Zhen Zhen sighed in frustration, she was still too young, she really wanted to grow up quickly.
Zhen Zhen wrapped the rest of the cake and put it on the cabinet, then took out two pieces of milk candy from her pocket and gave it to the meat bun, the meat bun took the milk candy and was facing Zhen Zhenle, Suddenly, a roar from the courtyard startled them both.
"Li Mingbei, get out of here!" Li Muwu, standing in front of his beloved bicycle, was furious with a tape measure.
Li Mingbei squatted behind the door and shivered, pretending to be calm and sticking out half of his head: "What... what..."
"Did you drop the car for me?" Li Muwu's distressed face turned green: "The handlebar deviates one centimeter to the left, you must have fallen to the right."
Li Mingbei was almost scared to pee. He had never seen a ruler who could measure the energy after riding a bicycle. How could the energy of this thing deviate by one centimeter? He obviously checked it several times before entering the door!
Zhen Zhen's five-body attitude to Li Muwu's clothes, in front of his beloved bicycle, Li Muwu's IQ and intuition are simply possessed by Conan!
The author has something to say: My mother was a child of a hydrolysis plant when she was a child. Her favorite thing when she was a child was watching movies, but movie tickets were also very expensive. My friends are full of tricks, such as picking up the torn ticket stubs and sticking them up. Next time, let the ticket inspector tear the other side when there are too many people, or hide it in the toilet. There will always be one or two times out of ten times when you forget to clear the venue. If you succeed, or go directly to the screening room, they are all neighbors, and they won't push her when they see her, so my mother's strongest record is watching four repetitive movies a day, and she kneels!
I remember the price of the candy very clearly because my grandmother once told me that my mother cried very much when she was a child, and she had to give candy to coax her. A piece of candy is two cents, give two cents to stop crying, I suspect she is just crying~~
