Ever since Xu Damao started working in the factory, he has been very good at communicating with people, so he has been doing well in the publicity department.
He was very entertaining, and would meet up with colleagues in the department for a drink whenever he had something to do. Over time, everyone got on better terms with him.
On this day, after Xu Damao went to work, he received a screening assignment to Niujiawan, put on his bicycle, put on the screening equipment, and started riding to Niujiawan.
The captain of Niujiawan Commune is Niu Dali. He had been waiting at the entrance of the village with the commune cadres early in the morning. Now he wanted a projectionist to come to his corps to show a movie. Without connections, he usually wouldn't be able to get in.
"Village chief, look if the person riding the bicycle over there is a projectionist from the city." The sharp-eyed young cadre pointed into the distance.
"It seems to be true. Come on, let's go greet him."
Niu Dali led several brigade cadres and hurried towards Xu Damao's direction.
"Hello, hello, you are the projectionist from the city, welcome, welcome to our Niujiawan Commune, I am the team leader Niu Dali."
Xu Damao got off the bicycle, and several cadres rushed forward to help support the bicycle.
Seeing someone helping the car, Xu Damao hurriedly stretched out his hands to shake hands with the cow.
"Hello, hello, Captain Niu, I am a projectionist from the city, how can I let you greet me in person?"
"It's okay, it's okay. You've had a hard time coming here. Come to the village quickly. I've arranged for someone to kill a hare and stew it."
"How can this be so embarrassing?" Xu Damao thought to himself that his colleague had indeed not lied to him, as long as he went to the countryside to show movies, there would be benefits.
Soon the group arrived at the brigade headquarters of Niujiawan Commune.
"I still don't know the name of the projectionist."
"Look at my brain, Captain Niu, my name is Xu Damao, you can just call me Xiao Xu as projectionist." Xu Damao introduced himself hurriedly.
"Okay, little projectionist Xu, come and sit down. The hare is almost ready. Let's eat first. Movies can't be shown during the day. After dinner, my boy will take you to the village."
Soon, the director of the village Women's Federation came out with hare meat and white steamed buns.
Under the warm hospitality of the captain and others, Xu Damao ate with his mouth full of oil.
"How about it, Projectionist Xiao Xu? Comrade Niu Ailan, director of our Women's Federation, is pretty good at it, right?"
"It's delicious. Director Niu's skills are such that he can go to the city to cook." Xu Damao praised without hesitation.
"Haha, Xiao Xu, the projectionist, was joking. We know what our level is, and I am definitely not as good as the chefs in your city," Niu Ailan, director of the Women's Federation, said with a smile.
"Hey, Director Niu said this, what do we mean by city people? We are all ordinary people, regardless of whether we are in the city or in the countryside."
"Yes, yes, yes, look at projectionist Xiao Xu's realization."
After they chatted for a while, Niu Dali called his boy, 10-year-old Niu Goudan.
"Goudan, this is your Uncle Da Mao. I'm taking your Uncle Da Mao around the village."
"No, Captain Niu, just call me brother, just call me brother."
Soon, Goudan took Xu Damao around the village.
"Goudan, who are you bringing?"
"Goudan, come here and let me touch whether the doggie's eggs are growing."
"Goudan..."
"Uncle Niu, if you touch my calf again, I will tell my father." Goudan looked at Uncle Niu who was blocking the road, and hurriedly covered his crotch with his hands, looking at Uncle Niu with a vigilant expression.
"Haha, okay, I won't tease you anymore, who are you bringing?" Uncle Niu said, showing his big yellow teeth caused by smoking cigarettes for decades.
"This is a projectionist from the city. Movies are shown in the commune in the evening. My dad asked me to take him around the village."
"What, there's a movie going on tonight." The women around him hurriedly gathered around.
"Hey, hey, aunt, please don't squeeze me, I can't breathe anymore."
Xu Damao swallowed in fear as he looked at the female comrades who surrounded him instantly.
"Projectionist, are there movies tonight?"
"Yes, yes, let's play the movie." Xu Damao replied hurriedly.
After finally getting out of the circle surrounded by a group of women, when passing by the field, I saw a charming woman busy in the field.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, Xu Damao was immediately fascinated when he looked at it.
"Brother Damao, Brother Damao."
Xu Damao came back to his senses when he heard Goudan calling him.
"Goudan, who is that person?"
"Aunt Ma, let me tell you, you can't tell others." Goudan said mysteriously.
Xu Damao became excited when he heard this.
"People in the village say that Aunt Ma Kefu killed her men, so no one in the village dared to get too close to her." After Goudan finished speaking, he looked around nervously, for fear that what he said would be heard by others. .
"That's it. Okay, Goudan, you can go play and I'll go around by myself."
Goudan, who had long wanted to run away, ran away as soon as he heard this.
Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Damao walked along Tianliang.
"Um, hello, I'm the projectionist at the Red Star Rolling Mill. What are you doing?"
"Hey, what are you, a projectionist, doing out in the fields?" Widow Ma said.
"No, it's still early for the movie. I just want to see the scenery in the village. I saw the beautiful scenery not far away, so I couldn't help but come over and get to know you."
"Pfft~"
Widow Ma had never experienced this before, and she immediately blushed at Xu Damao's seductive words.
Xu Damao was immediately fascinated by what he saw.
"What are you looking at?" Following Xu Damao's gaze, he realized that he thought he was wearing loose clothes for work, and his clothes were wet with sweat at some point, and a large piece of snow-white chest was exposed.
"rogue."
"Ah, I'm not a gangster, I can't talk nonsense."
The two of them just started chatting.
After chatting, Xu Damao learned that Widow Ma had just been married. Within half a year, her husband fell to his death while going hunting in the mountains, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law also died one after another within a year.
She was left alone with a pregnant belly, so the villagers said she was their nemesis.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been lonely for too long, or maybe someone finally listens to my complaints.
Widow Ma couldn't help but started crying, and Xu Damao hurriedly comforted her. He didn't know how to comfort her, so he held Widow Ma in his arms.
It took a while for Widow Ma to react, and she hurriedly pushed Xu Damao away with a red face.
"You should leave quickly, it will be time to gossip later when people see you."
"Then you take the kids to watch a movie tonight."
"knew."
In the evening, Widow Ma came over to watch a movie with her 6-year-old son. Xu Damao saw her in the crowd at a glance.
The moment the two looked at each other, Widow Ma immediately lowered her head.
There was originally one movie to show, but because of Captain Niu's warm reception, Xu Damao showed another one.
After the movie ended, the villagers reluctantly left, discussing the plot.
Captain Niu sent someone to help Xu Damao pack his things, and then arranged accommodation for Xu Damao. It was a coincidence.
It was actually arranged in the yard next to Widow Ma’s house.
"Ma Qiaoling, wait a minute, you happened to be taking little projectionist Xu along the way. Show him the house next door to your house." Niu Dali said to Widow Ma after handing the key to Xu Damao.
