Chapter Fifty-Four Watching Movies

  Ever since she knew that they would be watching a movie at night, Song Jie was particularly excited. She had never experienced this before and had never watched an outdoor movie either.

  After the two played and returned home, they told the old man about it. The old man shook his fan and thought for a while: "Let's go, we'll all go."

  At night, there must be an adult next to the child. Besides, he hasn't gone out with his wife for a long time, and it's good to take a walk and exercise his old arms and legs.

  I heard that we can go, two small ones cheered, who cares about the adults going or not, the excitement is truly beyond words.

  When it was time for dinner, Wang Yiran was also there. As soon as the old man mentioned it, he immediately got the collective consent of the whole family. Chinese people love to join in the fun, watching movies is one of the best ways to pass the time, how can they not go? Zhao Tong was even more excited.

  After dinner, everyone set off. If you don't go early, you won't be able to get a good spot and will end up at the back where you can't see anything. The weather is getting cooler, so it's still necessary to bring long-sleeved clothes.

  Five people in a row, carrying their bedding and wearing long-sleeved shirts, marched out of the door in an imposing manner.

  Song Jie has arrived in Beijing and hasn't gone out yet, now the sky is dark, it really feels like visiting relatives during Chinese New Year in Xiao Zhang Village.

  She took a deep breath of the air, the cold gas rushed into her lungs, and the refreshing feeling swept to her heart, even the tree shadows by the road seemed to be joyful.

  Following behind the adults, Song Jie pulled on Zhao Mu's hand, skipping and jumping as she went. She was still young now, not needing to hide her emotions at all, and her behavior became more and more childish.

  Along the way, I also met many acquaintances, it seems like everyone's news is very well-informed.

  Arriving at the park, the lights had already been turned on, shining as brightly as daylight. The throngs of people and the cacophony of sounds formed a stark contrast to the quiet streets just before, making it seem as if one had entered another world.

  Someone had already taken a small stool and occupied the seat, it seems that they are very anxious about their family.

  A large white cloth stood upright on a vacant lot, with staff busy at work, occasionally testing the effect.

  There are mischievous little kids, holding their hands in front of the curtain, making various movements, and immediately all sorts of small animals appear on the screen. Some go in and out, and a human figure appears and disappears on the screen.

  It's really interesting, this is even more lively than the temple fair, Song Jie secretly sighed in her heart. Infected by the atmosphere, her mood also fluttered slightly, always wanting to find something to vent.

  Zhao's mother took out 50 cents from her pocket and handed it to Wang Yiran: "Xiao Ran, take it, go buy some melon seeds. Make sure Ni Ni doesn't wander off too far. We'll sit down here, don't get lost on your way back."

  Wang Yiran didn't hesitate either. Although his mom had given him some pocket money, it was clearly meant for his sister now, so he took it anyway.

  "Then let's go buy something to eat."

  "Go ahead, don't bump into people, be careful."

  Two little ones held hands and walked out of the crowded crowd. As soon as they came out, it was much better, not as noisy as before.

  On the edge of the crowd, there were already small vendors who had taken up positions and set out their wares for sale. Some were stir-frying melons, others were selling snacks, some were selling soda water, and still others were selling cigarettes.

  There were already many children gathered in front of the stall, and some uneasy adults followed behind. After all, there were too many people, who could say for sure that there weren't any kidnappers among them? How could one be at ease?

  Wang Yiran said there were friends here, so Zhao's mother and others felt at ease letting the two of them go.

  Two people came to the stall, and the flat stall was filled with snacks. Song Jie walked from head to toe but couldn't make up her mind, really didn't know which one tasted good, could only look at Wang Yiran with eager eyes.

  Wang Yiran was taken aback, he walked to the stall and picked up a bag of dried plums, as well as several bags of sour plum powder. This sour plum powder is sour when you eat it, but finally turns sweet, very popular among children.

  Arriving at the place where melon seeds are sold, a large machine is constantly rotating, and the melon seeds inside gradually emit waves of fragrance, enticing people's appetites to come out.

  In front of the stall, there were also fried fragrant melon seeds piled together, two cents for a big bag, and also five cents, one cent. But there was only one flavor. Song Jie felt a little sorry, she loved to eat salty melon seeds the most, but they didn't sell them, what a pity!

  Wang Yiran bought five packs for one yuan and handed one pack to Song Jie. He took a pack himself and started smoking.

  Song Jie took out a melon seed and ate it, the taste was indeed very good, all natural, with a strong fragrance, leaving a lingering aftertaste in her mouth, she couldn't stop eating one after another.

  Being dragged by Wang Yiran, Song Jie stumbled forward while eating melon seeds, her attention all focused on eating.

  When they arrived at Zhao Fu's place, Wang Yi Ran took out the melon seeds and gave each person a packet. Upon looking around, Zhao Tong was nowhere to be found.

  Song Jie asked: "Grandma, where did my little uncle go?"

  "Your little brother-in-law saw his classmates and went to play with them," replied Zhao's mother.

  "Oh" Song Jie nodded to indicate she understood.

  The movie has not started yet, and it's still early. People are moving around everywhere. Wang Yiran suggested going to find Sun Wei and others, and Song Jie also had nothing else to do, so she nodded in agreement.

  Two people were weaving in and out of the crowd, sometimes bumping into others, but no one held it against them. The two were searching everywhere for Sun Tai and his companions.

  They were found in front of the snack stand, and as expected, every child who came here would dig into the snack stand. Song Jie secretly smiled.

  Wang Yiran walked over and gave Sun Tao a hard slap on the back, scaring him so much that he quickly turned around to see who it was. Seeing that it was this kid, he punched Wang Yiran, and both of them burst out laughing at the same time.

  Sun Tao hastily bought something, this time following him were only two people, Song Jie had seen them before.

  Boys are just so weird, they don't eat what's in their own hands, but always want to swap and eat. Actually, the melon seeds are all the same, the taste is the same, where's the difference?

  A few people gathered together, nothing special, just hanging out and joining in the fun. Song Jie found that this little boy named Sun Tao had a very wide social circle, wherever he went, there were people he knew, and someone always greeted him.

  Wang Yiran followed closely behind Song Jie, pointing out who was who, and didn't think for a moment that Song Jie wouldn't understand. Song Jie also made an impression on many people because of this, which would be very beneficial for future social interactions.

  Everywhere on the square were running children, rushing adults, and a noisy hubbub.

  "Movie is starting!" Someone shouted from afar, and everyone rushed to the big screen, no longer playing around. The attraction of the movie was very strong at that time, no less than the TV at that time.

  Wang Yiran bid farewell to Sun Wei and walked towards where Zhao Mu and others were, tightly holding Song Jie's hand.

  Song Jie's footsteps were very close behind her, but when she turned around, it was as if she saw her own little uncle, standing next to him was a woman, a woman?!
