On his day off, Lu Weiguo took Shi Tingyu to the Xinhua Bookstore in the city.
The Xinhua Bookstore in Jinling is not a small one. It is a two-story building. There is a four-character Xinhua Bookstore sign on the outside of the first floor, and a big red five-pointed star on the outer wall of the second floor.
The two walked in, and the people around them breathed a lot lighter.
This combination of beauty and murderer is truly amazing.
Lu Weiguo was used to this kind of sight.
Shi Tingyu looked at his expressionless face and tugged on his sleeve.
Lu Weiguo turned around and she gave him a sweet smile.
The corners of Lu Weiguo's lips curled up slightly. It didn't matter what others thought of him, as long as his wife didn't dislike him.
Inside Xinhua Bookstore, there are rows of trapezoid-like glass counters, and on the wall behind the glass counters are rows of tall wooden bookcases.
The glass counter is filled with all kinds of books, and the wooden bookcases behind it are also filled with books.
In addition to books, there are also many New Year pictures hanging on the walls.
Most of them are portraits of great people.
Lu Weiguo saw "The Loyal Dog" in the trapezoidal glass counter. Its colors were harmonious and bright, and it looked better than some of the miniature books next to it.
"Comrade, I want a copy of this." Lu Weiguo called to the salesperson and pointed to the comic strip on the counter.
The salesperson took a look at the other person's military uniform and took out "Loyal Dog".
"This is the newest one. It costs fifty cents a piece."
Lu Weiguo paid the money happily.
Shi Tingyu glanced at him and wanted to say that he didn't need to buy it, he had it at home, but he saw the man holding the book and didn't say anything.
Lu Weiguo flipped through the book in his hand, which was the same as what he saw at home.
Putting the book in his arms, Lu Weiguo asked: "Comrade, is this new book selling well?"
The salesperson couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "This is the latest comic book published by the publishing house in Beijing. Did you see the counter next to me? It has been sold out for a long time."
Lu Weiguo looked at the counter next to him, and sure enough, the space where "Loyal Dog" was placed on the counter was empty.
The salesperson was afraid that they wouldn't believe it, so he continued: "I can't lie to you about this. Not many copies of this book were printed, and by the time it arrives in our store, there won't be many left. If you come here a day later, there's no chance it will be gone." .”
"And both children and adults like it. You will definitely not lose money if you buy it back. After you finish reading it, you can show it to your children."
Lu Weiguo didn't know why he replied out of nowhere: "We just got married and we don't have any children yet."
The salesperson looked like this, "No wonder."
The person looks too fierce, even if he is a soldier, it is difficult to find a partner, and he is too old.
I just don’t know how such a beautiful lesbian next to me could fall in love with each other.
Seeing that they had almost inquired about everything that needed to be asked, Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo went back.
After leaving the door of Xinhua Bookstore, Shi Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief.
She felt relieved if the picture book sales were good.
Although she has received the money, she still hopes to get more money.
"Let's go back." Shi Tingyu said.
Lu Weiguo said, "It's hard to come to the city. How about we go watch a movie?"
The movies produced in the past two years are not only the eight major model dramas, but also introduced some movies from North Korea.
When a new movie first comes out, people have to queue up for a long time to buy tickets.
Shi Tingyu had never seen a movie theater in this era, so he agreed.
Lu Weiguo looked happy.
He and Shi Tingyu met and got married after being introduced by someone. When they were pressed for time, there was no process of getting married.
He is also busy on weekdays, and he always feels that he is indebted to her.
This time he also wanted to take her to experience what others would do when they were with someone.
There are many people watching movies in the evening, so this time period is not bad.
The two bought tickets at the ticket office, about two green movie tickets about the size of stamps, for a dime each.
The movie is a North Korean film called "Flower Girl".
Lu Weiguo also bought Shi Tingyu a pack of fried melon seeds and a bottle of soda.
It was also the first time for Shi Tingyu to eat melon seeds wrapped in paper, and the experience was quite novel.
Today's movie theaters are incomparable to those of later generations, but they also have a different flavor in this era.
After watching for a while, I saw some half-grown children nearby, ducking and hiding.
Seeing her confusion, Lu Weiguo explained in his ear: "Many of these children have old movie tickets and sneaked in when the ticket check was busy. Someone should be checking the tickets now."
This was the first time Shi Tingyu knew of such an operation.
Sure enough, after a while, the person checking the tickets came to the two of them, looked at the tickets and walked away.
When Shi Tingyu ate melon seeds, Lu Weiguo held a paper bag for her and spread her handkerchief on his lap to put the melon seed shells for his wife.
When the movie showed the scene where the landlord's wife was scalding her eyes blind with medicine dregs, there were bursts of sobs in the cinema.
Shi Tingyu also cried silently while watching.
Lu Weiguo was better. He had seen a lot of death on the battlefield, so he could still endure such a plot. He just looked at Shi Tingyu's tear-stained little face and secretly regretted it in his heart.
I should have watched another movie if I had known earlier.
He raised his hand to wipe the tears from her face, but his fingertips were thickly calloused due to years of firearms training, which made Shi Tingyu's fair and tender face a little painful.
Lu Weiguo didn't know what to do for a moment, but suddenly saw the soda in his hand, and handed the soda to her mouth, "Drink the soda."
Shi Tingyu was still in a mood, but his words about drinking soda ruined the mood.
But she didn't care too much.
Lu Weiguo's performance is already very good, which is much better than that of later generations when women watch TV series and are so moved that the men next to them say it's all fake.
Seeing that his wife finally stopped crying, Lu Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that he was happy too early. Not long after, the tear-jerking scene came and Shi Tingyu's tears burst out again.
Finally, he glanced around, put his arms around her head, leaned on his shoulder, and said something that made Shi Tingyu vomit blood.
Lu Weiguo said: "This movie was made by people and is fake."
Shi Tingyu got up from his shoulders and sat upright in his seat.
Lu Weiguo looked at his empty arms and didn't know what was wrong.
A worker comrade at the back couldn't stand it anymore. He patted Lu Weiguo on the shoulder and said, "Comrade soldier, please be a good boy. When a lesbian is watching a movie, you can hand her a handkerchief, but you can't say that the stuff inside is fake." of."
Lu Weiguo turned around and wanted to ask why.
The man wearing the work clothes of a certain machinery factory met his ferocious eyebrows, leaned back immediately, and said repeatedly: "I'm sorry, sorry, sorry."
Lu Weiguo:......
He turned back silently, forget it.
Because the handkerchief held the melon seed shell, when Ting Yu started crying again later, he gave it to his hand.
As for the military uniform on his body, it is not easy to use it to wipe his wife's tears.
Shi Tingyu seemed to have forgotten what happened just now, and leaned back on his shoulder again.
Lu Weiguo turned around in surprise and wanted to ask the worker brother behind him if he had any tricks. He felt that his trick was useful.
Unexpectedly, the seat behind him was already empty.
Lu Weiguo:......
