Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

This afternoon.

When Deng Yuntai came back from the tile factory, he took his wife into the room, then took out a wad of money and handed it over. He said with a smile: "Mei Ping, the tile factory has paid your wages today, take it and save it."

Zhang Xiuping happily took the money and asked with a smile: "Brother Tai, how much did you get paid this month?"

Deng Yuntai said proudly: "232."

Zhang Xiuping leaned over, kissed him, and praised: "Brother Tai, you are so awesome!"

Deng Yuntai chuckled, then hugged his wife and kissed her for a while, and then said with satisfaction: "Then I'll go out first. You can quickly save the money and go out for dinner."

Zhang Xiuping responded, and when her husband went out, she took the key to open her dowry box, lifted up a corner of the cloth in the box, and saw that it was filled with large sums of money and various loose bills, which were given by her father-in-law. Her bottom box of money and the wages her husband gave her.

The total amount is close to 1,000 yuan. Now adding the 232 yuan, her deposit exceeds 1,200 yuan.

Only four months after getting married, she already had a savings of 1,200 yuan. If this news spread, I'm afraid it would cause a huge sensation in the village.

The fact that she was able to save so much money and her father-in-law and husband trusted her was really beyond words.

After putting the money away and locking the box, Zhang Xiuping went out to have dinner with a smile on her face.

In addition to the fried pork and a few vegetables, there was also a soybean and pig's trotters soup specially stewed in a clay pot for her.

Ever since Zhang Xiuping became pregnant, her father-in-law said that she would make soup for her every day, but that was not just talk.

From the day we found out she was pregnant, there was a fresh stew every day at home, including old hen soup, duck and male soup, mutton soup, peanut and pork bone soup, soybean and pig's trotters soup, etc. All kinds of delicious soups were given to her in rotation. Stewing made Zhang Xiuping feel full of happiness.

She didn't know if any of the well-off young wives in the city had such treatment. Anyway, she had never heard of any pregnant woman in the countryside receiving such treatment.

Originally, while enjoying this super high treatment, she was a little worried that her father-in-law and husband would be unhappy if the baby in her belly was not a son but a daughter. But after she learned about Ah Zhang Qi, her worries became clearer. Swept away.

After all, my father-in-law has made it very clear that a woman is just a piece of land, and what kind of seeds a man sows on it will grow. Therefore, the decision to have a boy or a girl is not decided by the woman, but by the man.

Zhang Xiuping really feels so lucky to have such an open-minded father-in-law!

…

The next day.

After school was over at noon, Deng Yunhua ran back panting, and then shouted with excitement: "The team is going to show a movie tonight!"

Deng Yunzhen's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she quickly asked: "Xiaohua, who did you hear this from? Is it true?"

Deng Yunhua kept breathing heavily and said: "Many people are talking about this in the brigade now. What I heard when I came back from school must be true."

Deng Yunzhen said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, we can go to the movies tonight!"

Zhang Xiuping couldn't help but get excited after hearing this.

In this era, from the elderly to children, there are really not many people who can resist the temptation of watching movies.

However, before Zhang Xiuping could express her position, Deng Shirong immediately took over and said, "Azhen, your sister-in-law is pregnant now and cannot go to the movies. It is too dangerous to be crowded with people at night."

Only then did Deng Yunzhen react and said with some annoyance: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I even forgot that you were pregnant."

Zhang Xiuping couldn't help but laugh and said: "Don't talk about you, even I forgot that I was pregnant when I heard the news that the team was showing a movie."

For Deng Shirong, who has experienced the bombardment of later movies and short videos, he is really not interested in the movies of this era, but he also understands how attractive watching movies is to people of this era.

In order not to disappoint his eldest daughter-in-law, Deng Shirong made a promise: "Sister A Ping, this time you are pregnant, it is really difficult to squeeze in with others. When the baby is born and we make full-moon wine, I will specially invite someone to come to my house." Play the movie for three nights in a row and you will definitely enjoy it.”

Zhang Xiuping was surprised and happy to hear her father-in-law's words, but she still shook her head and said, "Dad, that will cost a lot of money. It's not necessary."

Deng Shirong smiled and said: "Why is it not necessary? This is my first grandson, so I must celebrate it well."

Zhang Xiuping reached out and touched her belly, which was not yet pregnant. She couldn't hide the smile on her face no matter how hard she tried.

While they were talking, Deng Yunzhu, Deng Yunsong and Deng Yunheng also came back. They had obviously heard the news that the team was going to show a movie tonight, and they were all very excited.

Similar scenes also played out in different families.

In just a few hours, the news that the brigade was showing a movie in the evening spread throughout the Bunji brigade.

In this era of extreme lack of entertainment, watching a movie is really as good as celebrating the New Year for rural people.

So, on this day, families who planned to go to the movies did not drink porridge at home, but cooked rice.

Drinking porridge makes you urinate more. In this era, people are crowded when watching movies. It is not easy to squeeze out to go to the toilet. Therefore, experienced villagers know that if you want to watch a movie well, you must have dinner. Cook and eat.

As for today's dinner, every household had it very early.

Although the movie was only shown in the evening, people came with stools early to occupy seats.

Deng Shirong's family also had dinner very early today.

After dinner, when he saw his children getting stools and preparing to grab seats, Deng Shirong said to his fourth son: "Xiaohua, do you have money to buy tickets?"

In this era, movies are not only charged if you go to the cinema, but also if you watch them in the village.

If you want to watch free movies, it’s only when someone else’s family has a happy event, such as a wedding, a child’s full moon, or a birthday, and then they pay people to come over and show a movie to celebrate, so that everyone can watch free movies.

There is also a situation where a certain production team pays people to come to the village to show a movie, and then people from other villages come to watch it. For people in other villages, watching the movie is free.

Today's movie is not paid for by any production team, so tickets are required.

Of course, the tickets are not expensive, only a few cents, and most people can afford it, it just depends on whether they are willing to part with it or not.

Deng Yunhua's grades were not good, and he never received a study reward from his father. However, he got a lot of red envelopes during the Chinese New Year, and from time to time he tried to trick the rich man Lao Wu, so he still had some money left. Then he nodded and said, "Dad, I have money to buy a ticket."

Deng Shirong hummed, and then told the eldest son and daughter: "Azhen, keep an eye on them."

"Got it, Dad!"
