Siheyuan: Xu Damao, I want to go to the moon

Chapter 6 Chorus "Playing My Beloved Pipa"

From a distance, I saw that it was Qin Dahe and Qin Jingru walking towards the foot of the mountain, greeting them as they walked.

Xu Damao then realized that it was time for dinner again. Does time pass so quickly in the countryside?

On the way back to the brigade headquarters, Qin Dahe kept ordering Qin Jingru to apologize to Xu Damao.

Without the secretary and the village chief, Qin Jingru lost her temper: "Dad! I told you, he fell because he was timid! It's none of my business! I didn't hit him."

"On the contrary, it was because of him that you beat me up, Dad. In my opinion, he should apologize to me! It's his fault for not explaining it clearly at the time! Humph!"

"Bad guy! Apologize to me!"

Having said that, Qin Jingru glared at Xu Damao fiercely, as angry as a little female leopard.

She felt wronged. What was wrong with her coming out to ask about a stranger in the village? Instead, she was beaten by her father and lost face in front of those younger brothers.

Now that the secretary and the village chief are not here, this bad guy must apologize to me!

"Jingru! How did you talk to Xu Fangying?!" Qin Dahe was furious. This girl was just trying to make trouble with Xu Fangying today, right? Not to mention that she had to beg Xu Fangying to show the movie, but she had kidnapped Xu Fangying today. If she really wanted to make a fuss, do you think you could run away?

This is really ungrateful!

Xu Damao couldn't help but feel playful. He also spread his hands like Qin Jingru and said, "But it was your father who beat you. I didn't call him s---."

"So it's none of my business. What can I do?"

Qin Jingru hadn't figured it out yet, and she was still asking stupidly, "What do you mean?"

Xu Damao rolled his eyes at her

"I didn't hit you, nor did I ask anyone to hit you. If you want to apologize, go find your father and the secretary." Xu Damao pointed at Qin Dahe jokingly, but Qin Jingru turned to Qin Dahe and said, "Dad——"

"Get lost!" Qin Dahe's face turned black. Do you really want me and the secretary to apologize to you? You're the one who's doing it?

"Hmph! Get out of here if you want!" Qin Jingru looked reluctant. What else could she do if her father didn't agree?

Looking at her angry expression, Xu Damao was trying to hold back his laughter. He was just bored and wanted to tease this little Lolita. It's not against the law to tease his future wife, right?

Not to mention Qin Jingru at that time, her face was rosy and she looked silly and cute, very adorable.

But just as she turned around and prepared to leave, she suddenly turned back and stepped hard on Xu Damao's shoes.

"Hmph! Bad guy!"

Then he ran away without a trace after a while? !

"Ow!"

Xu Damao jumped on one foot in pain, looking at Qin Dahe with a frustrated look on his face: "Is your daughter usually so brave?"

In fact, it didn't hurt at all. Xu Damao was just reacting instinctively. But as soon as he lifted his foot, he realized something was wrong. If he put it down at this time, was it really painful, or was he pretending not to hurt?

Just continue pretending to be in pain.

Qin Dahe wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, so he could only say intermittently: "Xu Yingying, I'm sorry, this girl's temper has been spoiled by her brothers, and she is the only daughter in the family..."

"When you came to show the movie last year, she happened to be at her grandpa's house, so she didn't recognize you."

"You won't argue with a child, will you?"

Xu Damao pointed at Qin Dahe helplessly - you old cunning guy, now that you've said this, how the hell can I still get angry?

[Nima! I can bear it! ]

[I will deal with her properly in a few years! ]

As usual, dinner was eaten in the main hall of the brigade headquarters, accompanied by the secretary, the village chief, and Qin Dahe. Xu Damao then realized that the secretary was afraid that he would go into the mountains, so he had arranged for Qin Dahe to wait at the foot of the mountain in the afternoon so that he could call him if anything happened. Because there was a movie to be shown in the evening, there was no drinking at dinner.

At about 7 o'clock, Xu Damao began to set up the arrangements in the open space in front of the brigade office.

Screens are too troublesome and not big enough, so when showing movies in the countryside, people just want to be lazy and project the film directly onto the wall.

The largest wall in the village is the old house used as the brigade headquarters. Even though it has been painted, it is not a pure white wall. There are traces of water stains, mold and blackening under the eaves. Some of the wall paint has fallen off in the corners, revealing the bricks inside. The most troublesome thing is that there are slogans written on some of the walls.

But it was great to have a movie in the village, and the villagers had no objection. After all, if a screen was used, only the people in the front could see it. Now it was projected onto the wall, and although it was a little dark and blurry, the picture was big after all! The villagers in the back could also see it clearly.

After all, it wasn't just the villagers of Qinjiatun who came to watch the movie. Many people from two or three nearby villages also came, filling up the flat ground in front of the brigade headquarters where they held meetings and dried grain. With so many people, Xu Damao was really worried that there might be a stampede.

So, we must show them enough!

Today Xu Damao screened the old film "Railway Guerrillas" from 56 and the new film "The Eternal Waves" from 58. The original task was to only screen one film, but the villagers killed all the laying hens to make soup for him. It was really enthusiastic.

So Xu Damao was not stingy and showed both films back-to-back so that everyone could watch them all at once! The villagers were delighted.

Xu Damao also found a good seat, ate melon seeds and walnuts handed to him by the villagers, smoked a cigarette, and watched the two films patiently.

As a later generation, Xu Damao actually watched these two movies in elementary school, but he has no impression of them. But as Xu Damao 2.0 who has all the memories, he has almost memorized the lines of these two movies. The new and old mentality makes him very curious, so he also wants to watch them again in full.

The plot, shooting techniques, scenery, makeup, lighting, camera, actors' performances... It can be said that in the eyes of Xu Damao of later generations, there was nothing desirable about them. After all, the times were different and the perspectives were different.

But when the song "Play My Beloved Pipa" sounded, not only Xu Damao, but even the villagers became excited!

Regardless of whether they can sing or not, they all hum along, but in a very low voice, as if they were afraid of being laughed at if they don't sing well. It's like watching a celebrity concert!

Xu Damao was also infected by this atmosphere. He was responsible for explaining and guiding the audience, so he cleared his throat and led everyone to sing loudly.

"The sun is about to set in the west, and Weishan Lake is quiet."

In the past, he didn't take this song seriously and didn't remember the lyrics. But at this moment, Xu Damao's DNA as a Chinese started to move!

"I play my beloved pipa and sing the touching ballad..."

In the crowd at the back, Qin Jingru blushed as she looked at Xu Damao, who was standing in the front and leading everyone in singing. She muttered to herself: [This bad guy sings quite well...]

Seeing the villagers who were as enthusiastic as if it was Chinese New Year, and Xu Damao who was standing in front of them waving his hands and directing everyone to sing, the village head and the secretary looked at each other happily. Although this year was not very smooth due to the drought, this incident before the Chinese New Year has dissipated a lot of the resentment in everyone's hearts.

[This projectionist Xu is much more generous than last year! This person is very approachable! ]

----------------

The movie was played until 11 o'clock, and the crowd dispersed when the clock struck . Xu Damao had been tossing and turning all night, and his throat was dry. After packing up his equipment, he stayed in the brigade headquarters.

He was originally arranged to stay at the secretary's home, but the brigade headquarters had a room in the village that was specially used to receive leaders. Not to mention that it was clean and hygienic, the most convenient thing for Xu Damao was that after the movie was finished, he could just put the equipment away directly in the room.

It's too late today. If we move the equipment to the secretary's house in the dark, it might break on the way, which would be counterproductive.

Moreover, for Xu Damao now, it is safe and comfortable for him to live alone, and he can even go to the moon at night!

As for the problem of cold winter, not to mention that the quilts in the brigade were thick enough, the stove was also burned. With Xu Damao's current heat and cold resistance, he was afraid of nothing!

I dare to run naked on the moon! This little bit of cold is nothing to me!

But as soon as he took off his clothes and got into bed, Xu Damao got furious!

The bed is fucking hot!

There's a naked person inside! ?

What's going on here?

Are there more villains who want to harm me? !
