Reborn in the red era, I will take action

Chapter 16 Watching a movie, Yan Jiecheng is back from the hospital

As soon as these weird words came out of his mouth, Yi Zhonghai's face turned green, and he turned to look at Cao Weiguo: "Shut up!"

"Hahaha..." The laughter of Yan Lao Er and Yan Lao San came from Lao Yan's house.

What's even more amazing is that Jia Zhang actually looked at Yi Zhonghai with some weirdness and suspicion. Could it be that Lao Yi really thought so?

Yi Zhonghai's face turned charcoal black, he didn't care and left immediately.

He was afraid that if he didn't leave, the Cao boy would say something that would piss him off to death.

"We must find a way to drive the Cao family boy out of the courtyard. This is a disaster!" Yi Zhonghai thought to himself.

"Ms. Jia Zhang, let me tell you something that makes you heartbroken. Last night, you ran to the toilet because of diarrhea, and the uncle decided to pay me 10 yuan for your Jia family. This is considered as repayment for the bowl that Bangge stole. Braised pork.”

"You are a good man, fair and just. If you steal someone's things, you should pay ten times the compensation."

"I just don't know if the 10 yuan that my uncle compensated me was to help your Jia family compensate, or if it was lent to your Jia family. Will I ask your Jia family to pay back the money in the future?"

.........

After Yi Zhonghai left, Cao Weiguo said again, sowing dissension openly and openly.

"What? You little beast of the Cao family, you..." Jia Zhang's vision went dark and she almost fell down. She felt distressed and anxious, as if someone was cutting her flesh.

No longer caring about cursing Yan Bugui, Jia Zhang turned around and chased towards the middle courtyard: "Yi Zhonghai, stop here you wicked thing. Old Jia, open your eyes and take a look. Even that old Yi Zhonghai is here." You bullied our Jia family, this is the master you found for Dongxu!"

Yan Bugui finally breathed a sigh of relief, but still didn't dare to open the door.

After Cao Weiguo waited for a while, He Yuyu came out of the central courtyard.

This little girl also knows how to love beauty. She is wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket and a white scarf. She also has a faint fragrance on her body. It seems that she has been rubbed with clam oil.

Materials are really scarce these days, and there are also cosmetics and the like, but they are luxuries among luxuries that ordinary people have never seen.

It would be nice to occasionally find a piece of red paper and use it to pout your lips as lipstick.

Speaking of which, in the past two years, I can still wear colorful clothes as I like. Girls still prefer bright and beautiful clothes, and there are many styles and colors to choose from.

Wait a few years for the trend to pick up, and regardless of men or women, there will be almost only one color and one style of clothing left.

Cao Weiguo thought to himself that if he had time, he could use his mood points to buy a few bottles of cream from the system mall.

If you gave a girl a bottle of cream in this era, it would probably be more expensive than buying a girl a Hermès bag in later generations.

"Brother Wei Guo, you are so bad. Grandma Jia is making trouble in the middle courtyard and smashes the door of the first master's house angrily."

"The uncle has already said that he gave you the 10 yuan on behalf of the Jia family, and you don't want the Jia family to pay it back."

"Grandma Jia still refused to give up. She said that the elder brother made the decision without the consent of the Jia family and wanted the elder uncle to pay compensation. The elder mother was so angry that she cursed."

…………

He Yuyu rolled his eyes at Cao Weiguo, a little bit blaming.

Cao Weiguo and He Yuyu left the courtyard and went to have breakfast first.

Each person had a bowl of Yangchun noodles, and Cao Weiguo also added a few steamed buns.

After eating, He Yuyu was going to the Red Star Cinema.

Red Star Cinema is located in the Wangfujing and Dongsi area, which is the most prosperous place in Sijiu City in this era.

There are not only Red Star Cinema, but also Changhong Cinema, Dahua Cinema and so on.

"Don't worry, isn't there still more than an hour before the movie starts? Let's go shopping at Wangfujing Department Store first." Cao Weiguo suggested.

When going to the movies these days, you don’t buy tickets on the spot, but many days in advance.

Tickets cost 10 cents for students and 20 cents for adults. The seats are divided into good and bad ones and the prices are different.

Movies are also divided into newly released movies and movies that have been played many times, and the prices are also different.

There are quite a few movies that you can choose to watch in recent years. It's not like there will be basically only one type of movie left after the popularity becomes popular in a few years.

To be honest, Cao Weiguo is quite interested in the movies of this era. It is said that there are many classic domestic films and imported Soviet films.

Oh, by the way, these days movies are also shown in the morning, and the two tickets for Yuyu are for the morning screening.

"Ah? Going to Wangfujing Department Store?" He Yuyu was a little nervous.

Wangfujing Department Store opened a few years ago. It is a large department store that sells a wide variety of items, but they are also expensive. Children in alleys generally do not go there to shop.

"Go and have a look. If it's too expensive, don't buy it." Cao Weiguo said casually.

He had money in his hand, but not many tickets. He only had those tickets returned by Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu, which were mainly food stamps, meat stamps and cloth stamps. He went to Wangfujing Department Store to take a look first.

"Yes." He Yuyu nodded, and then became happy and expectant again.

In all her life, she has never been to Wangfujing Department Store.

Entering Wangfujing Department Store, Cao Weiguo looked up and down, looking for the iconic words "No hitting or scolding customers."

Don't tell me, I actually found it.

A few salespersons are really aloof and don't talk to anyone.

He Yuyu was so excited that he was dazzled by the various daily necessities such as calendars, pots and pans, and kettles.

There are also shoes, cloth, etc., as well as some high-end silks, satins, woolen goods, and genuine goods.

As for ready-made clothes, they are mainly detachable standard cotton-padded jackets, military casual clothes and woolen coats.

From the perspective of Cao Weiguo's later generations, these clothes were just like that and not fashionable at all.

But in He Yuyu's eyes, these are too popular.

Soon, she fell in love with a pink woolen coat.

Of course, she didn't say it out loud, just a few furtive glances betrayed her.

"Sister, take out that woolen coat and let her try it on." Cao Weiguo pointed.

"Brother Wei Guo, it's too expensive, I can't afford it." He Yuyu stopped him quickly, his face turned a little pale.

The saleswoman didn't have a good attitude: "Do you really want to buy it? If you don't want to buy it, don't try it randomly!"

Cao Weiguo is not angry. The salespersons these days are like this, which is a characteristic of the times: "Sister, let's try it on. If it fits, I will definitely buy it."

In the end, the saleswoman agreed because Cao Weiguo, a young man, looked good-looking.

He Yuyu couldn't stand Cao Weiguo's tough attitude and had no choice but to change clothes.

She made up her mind to just give it a try. If the price was very cheap, she could bite the bullet and use her own pocket money to borrow at least a little money from Cao Weiguo, and then take it.

If it's expensive, forget it.

Soon, she appeared in front of Cao Weiguo wearing a brand new pink Nizi coat.

Don't tell me, it is indeed much prettier than a floral cotton-padded jacket.

He Yuyu naturally liked it very much and asked cautiously: "Sister, how much does it cost?"

"It's 23 yuan, and I still need to post a ticket."

He Yuyu's face turned even paler, and he panicked and quickly took it off.

She now eats at school when she goes to school and eats at home on weekends.

Although I have pocket money every month, it is only about 1 yuan.

Even if I didn't spend a penny of my pocket money, I would have to save up for two years to afford this woolen coat.

"Wear it, it's beautiful and suits you." Cao Weiguo smiled and stopped He Yuyu from taking it off and paid directly.

The saleswoman's attitude was a little better: "This young comrade is right, little girl, you still look good in it, and you can be considered a "colonel"."

In this era, girls' looks are evaluated on a hierarchical basis.

Mainly boys give girls nicknames and even ratings.

There are many levels, such as colonel, senior colonel, captain, etc.

The rank of colonel is quite high. As for the rank of "general", it is extremely rare.

Yuyu's face turned a little red, and he glanced at Cao Weiguo shyly.

Cao Weiguo didn't dare to respond. Yu Yu was only 17, and he was still a few months away from turning 18.

Soon, Cao Weiguo forcibly paid the money and cloth stamps, but Yuyu refused to agree and almost cried.

It was Cao Weiguo who said that if she didn't accept the woolen coat, he would ignore her in the future, so she reluctantly agreed.

At this point, she repeatedly emphasized that the money was borrowed from Cao Weiguo and that she would save the money and pay it back slowly.

Girls of this era are quite simple.

After buying the woolen coat, although He Yuyu felt a little distressed, he was still in a good mood.

She wanted to take it back and put it away until the New Year, but Cao Weiguo asked her to wear it now. She listened to Cao Weiguo and put it on.

After leaving Wangfujing Department Store, He Yuyu kept asking whether the pockets here and there on this woolen coat were good-looking. So excited.

Cao Weiguo responded with a smile and touched her little head from time to time.

He would definitely be willing to spend money on this girl. Just because of the friendship between those two warm eggs, I would be willing to buy eight out of ten of them.

Besides, with the system in place, he is not short of money.

However, there is a lack of tickets.

I have to find a time to go to the pigeon market to get some tickets.

The movie was about to start, and the two hurried to the Red Star Cinema.

When you walk into the cinema, there are so many people. Find your seat and sit down.

It has a very contemporary feel and is a wooden chair with a reversible seat.

In fact, at this stage, there are also a few movie theaters that use brown-gray folding hard seats made of plastic.

But only a few.

After all, these days, the country's industrial strength is not good enough, and chemical plastics are very expensive.

Anyone who collects junk collects plastic.

In fact, the cow bone toothbrush used to brush teeth in the morning is far less expensive than plastic toothbrushes, which is exactly the opposite of later generations.

When watching movies, everyone basically behaves.

The young lovers stared closely at the movie screen, but there was no such thing as the later trend of young lovers actually finding a corner to start making out while watching a movie.

These days, even if we are photographing the mother-in-law, we only need to say a few words to each other, or talk about movies and literature together.

The most open-minded people make an appointment to go skating in Shichahai together.

The movie I watched this time was a domestic product, and it was quite exciting.

After watching it, Yu Yu was still full of emotions and discussed the plot with Cao Weiguo.

"You like watching movies, come see it next time, let's go and find a restaurant to have a meal." Cao Weiguo was looking forward to lunch.

Lao Mo is the first choice.

But if I'm afraid of being frightened by the rain, I'd better go to another hotel.

There are quite a few restaurants in Wangfujing, such as Donglaishun, Cuihua Tower, Dongxing Tower, Wufangzhai, etc.

In the middle of winter, even though it hasn’t snowed heavily outside, my first choice is to go to Donglaishun to eat hotpot mutton.

Walking into Donglaishun, the layout is similar to that of later generations.

After the charcoal copper pot is served, add onions, ginger and other seasonings to the water.

After the sesame sauce was mixed, I ordered 5 plates of hand-cut mutton for 3 cents each, and 5 sesame cakes for 4 cents each.

Food stamps are something else.

"Brother Wei Guo, it's delicious, but too expensive." Yu Yu's mouth bulged after eating it.

"If it tastes good, eat more and gain some fat. You're a bit thin."

"Yes." He Yuyu nodded with a red face.

She also felt that she was a little thin, so much so that Xiong Da was not as big as Haitang. She should add some influence so that she could grow up.

Cao Weiguo didn't know what He Yuyu was thinking about?
  He ordered a bottle of wine, sipped the wine and ate the meat, feeling very happy.

The meal cost a total of 4 yuan.

It may seem inexpensive, but in fact, the monthly living expenses for an ordinary family is only about 5 yuan.

Especially in these two years of famine, it is rare and rare for people who can afford to eat meat, let alone go to restaurants.

After lunch, Cao Weiguo took He Yuyu back.

"Brother Wei Guo, you can't spend money like this next time. You have to save money to marry a wife." On the way, Yu Yu whispered.

When the word "wife" was mentioned, she took another look at Cao Weiguo.

The meaning behind the words, ahem...

Cao Weiguo directly changed the topic.

Unexpectedly, while walking, she unexpectedly met her classmates on the road.

"rainwater!"

"Begonia..."

He Yuyu held Yu Haitang's hand, feeling a little excited.

The two are best friends, but that doesn't stop Rain from showing off.

She told Yu Haitang everything about watching a movie, eating boiled mutton, and buying a woolen coat today.

When the two were chatting, Yu Haitang would look at Cao Weiguo.

Cao Weiguo was speechless. This girl Yuyu was indeed simple-minded.

You and your besties show off who you like.

Aren't you afraid that your best friend will poach you?

Yu Haitang looks pretty good, after all, she is known as a factory flower.

When I saw Qin Man in my previous life, I always felt that Yu Haitang was not pretty.

But being in Qinman, five years ahead of schedule, I saw with my own eyes that Yu Haitang was still okay.

A girl is seventeen or eighteen years old, her skin is fair, and she knows how to dress up. What's not good about her?
  However, Yu Haitang's character, how can I put it, is strong-minded, worships money, and has no brains.

It's definitely not possible to marry her back as a daughter-in-law.

It’s not bad to keep them small.

The premise is that Cao Weiguo can always be rich and awesome.

He has a system, that's for sure.

In fact, Cao Weiguo is more interested in Haitang's sister Yu Li.

Yu Li is pretty, with an oval face and a bit charming.

Moreover, Yu Li is capable and neat, and is good at housework and other things.

Although she is calculating and cunning in the play, that was after marrying into Lao Yan's family.

The old Yan family tradition was there, and she was assimilated.

If she didn't marry the old Yan family, to be fair, Yu Li could be an alternative wife.

"Brother Wei Guo, I am Yu Haitang's best friend. We will know each other from now on."

Yu Haitang stepped forward and said openly.

"Hello, Comrade Haitang." Cao Weiguo nodded, not showing much interest in Haitang.

No need!
  With Yu Haitang's character, if you really want to mess with her, the more you lick the dog, the more counterproductive it will be.

Instead, he ignored her, but inadvertently revealed his strength. She was 100% unable to bear it and wanted to catch up.

Oh, by the way, Yu Haitang is 18 years old this year, one year older than Yu Yu, and is the most beautiful age.

"Brother Wei Guo, I heard from Yu Yu that you are a buyer. If I don't get enough New Year's goods at the end of the year, I will be in trouble for Brother Wei Guo."

Yu Haitang was a familiar person, and he wanted to take advantage of her when they first met, which Cao Weiguo knew well.

"Okay, then you can just go to the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluogu Lane to find me." Cao Weiguo did not shirk and asked casually: "Are you in a relationship with Yang Weimin?"

"Brother Wei Guo, do you know Yang Weimin?" Yu Haitang was surprised.

Yu Yu was also surprised. Yang Weimin was her classmate. How did Brother Wei Guo know that Yang Weiming was pursuing Haitang? I couldn't help but take another look at Cao Weiguo, and I always felt that Brother Wei Guo was different.

"He pursued me, but I didn't agree. I don't want to fall in love now." Yu Haitang said quickly.

After chatting for a while, Cao Weiguo and Yuyu left.

Yu Haitang looked at the backs of the two people, especially the tall and big Cao Weiguo, his eyes flickered slightly, wondering what he was thinking?
  Return to the courtyard.

Before he even entered the house, he saw Yan Jiecheng limping back.

Yan Jiecheng's face was still covered with blue nose and swollen eyes, and there was yellow-red liquid smeared on his face, which must be medicine.

One arm is also in a cast, which looks a bit funny.

"Xie Cheng, are you okay?" Cao Weiguo asked with concern.

"It's okay." Yan Jiecheng didn't have a good tone and asked casually: "Last night there was a general meeting of the hospital. How much compensation did Silly Zhu pay?"

Yan Jiecheng asked Yan Bugui before, but Yan Bugui didn't say anything. He had a bad feeling in his heart.

Can Cao Weiguo hide it?

The key point is that in order to get the compensation himself, Yan Laoji would rather let Shazhu change the compensation from 15 yuan to 10 yuan.
