Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

Chapter 57 I owe Huo Chunliang a movie ticket (3)

I remember the last time I walked into a place like a movie theater was many years ago.

Once upon a time, Lin Erhua was also an urban beauty who loved watching movies. Of course, more often she went to watch the new works of her lover Huo Chunliang.

At that time, the audience around her were all amazed at the movie, but they didn't know that the high-spirited man on the screen was in love with her, which made her feel extremely good from the bottom of her heart.

However, after 'that incident' happened many years ago, she never went to a movie theater again.

Maybe it was also related to the fact that every time she entered the cinema, she would involuntarily think of Huo Chunliang. She would think of his face staring at her and ask herself why.

This feeling became even stronger as my marriage life became increasingly unhappy.

Another reason is that I am busy with life and don’t have time to engage in those youthful activities.

Today is the first time in many years.

This was not the first time that her son suggested taking him to the movies during the holidays, but Lin Erhua had always found various reasons to refuse.

This time, for some unknown reason, she agreed to her son's proposal.

However, when everyone around her was watching the movie seriously, she was the only one who couldn't watch it at all. She didn't know if it was because of the movie or some other problem, she always felt uneasy.

She only knew that this story was about a love story in the Republic of China period, about a poor rural girl who met a young marshal, and they walked together through ups and downs, as well as separations in wars, but they still stayed together.

“I don’t know what’s so good about these movies.”

The husband next to her was chattering incessantly, wearing big shorts and a vest, swaying with his legs crossed.

"In my opinion, this group of actors is nothing more than a group of actors. Actors are so heartless and heartless. In ancient times, they were low-class people and inferior goods. What's so good about them? Why not give the money to others and do something else? In my opinion, these actors should all be banned. They have taken away the money of the people and caused a huge imbalance in social wealth."

As he spoke, he sniffed and spat on the ground.

The noise was very loud.

Lin Erhua had already noticed that some of the spectators around were looking at them with dissatisfaction.

"Okay, can you please say less? The child is here, and there are so many people here, don't affect others." Lin Erhua reminded in a low voice.

However, it would have been better if Lin Erhua hadn't said anything. Once she said it, her husband became even more excited. It was as if he had been poked in the back of his head. His voice immediately rose by two tones: "What? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Lin Erhua opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but this time she suddenly felt that she had lost the desire and motivation to speak.

A feeling of tiredness suddenly came over me.

She simply stopped talking.

Her husband then snorted: "You women don't know anything."

This was followed by a long speech of self-awareness, which he spoke for a long time before stopping.

She was not in the mood to watch a movie in the first place, and with this interruption, she was even less interested.

After watching the movie, Lin Erhua felt that there was something wrong with the way the audience members looked at them before leaving.

It was not until we walked out of the cinema that the son said, "Mom and Dad, let's go out to eat. I want to eat a hamburger today. I haven't eaten a hamburger in a year."

"What burgers are you eating? What good is this foreign garbage?"

However, before Lin Erhua could say anything, her husband spoke first, "It's expensive and tastes bad. Why spend this money? Do you have too much money and you're anxious to burn it? These are all put in by the foreigners to corrupt your minds. Haven't you seen all the reports? You've become stupid from eating hamburgers, and you can't study well. Your top priority now is to study. Don't put your mind on these things that mess up your mind. You've been admitted to university, and there's a 20 yuan reward from the clan. Your parents have raised you for so many years, you should repay them, right?"

Go home and eat, everything at home is good, don't waste this money."

"Okay." The son nodded somewhat depressed.

"Let's go back! What are you still looking at?" My husband shouted in the direction of Lin Erhua.

Lin Erhua suddenly felt tired of explaining and didn't want to deal with anyone anymore.

She just shook her head: "You guys go back and eat first, the food is ready, just heat it up, I have something else to do."

"What can you do? If I have to come over to cook for you, then what's the point of marrying you?" Her husband scolded her, "You're not home every day. You're running around outside during the New Year. Are you looking for some strange man outside? Come back here right now!"

"Didn't you understand what I said?!" Lin Erhua suddenly felt that the threshold of her heart had been reached and she could no longer endure it: "If you really want to think so, then you can think whatever you want. It's unreasonable!" After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

Yet her hand was caught.

The man raised his hand and was about to hit her.

Lin Erhua would usually defend him, but this time she stood up and said, "Come on, hit me, hit me here. Apart from being good at hitting women, what other skills do you have? You complain about everything every day. You don't make much money, but you drink a lot every day. Do you still feel good about yourself? Do you really think that you are the only sober person in the world when everyone else is drunk? Don't forget how you begged me when we got married. Did I ask you to contribute a penny to the house? Did I ask you to contribute a penny to the car?

You want face but you have no ability. If you don't defeat me today, I won't consider you a man!"

"Lin Erhua you!" The man was furious, but when he looked around and saw everyone's eyes were on him, and many even took out their phones to take pictures, he still stopped.

"Mom and Dad, stop arguing and let's go back to eat, okay?"

The son tried to persuade them in a panic.

The man just pushed the child away impatiently.

"Don't come back!" He said, turning around and walking away: "Bitch!"

The child looked at Lin Erhua, lowered his head, turned around and followed.

The people around then shifted their gaze.

Lin Erhua clenched her fists, feeling extremely aggrieved.

All the frustrations from the past few years came flooding back to my mind.

She turned and looked at the cinema behind her.

There were no posters, but she saw a familiar name on the scrolling information bar at the front desk.

【. "Ghost Hotel" invites you to share; Director Xia Yuan's work "Master" is released during the Spring Festival, starring veteran martial artist Huo Chunliang, telling you about the past of Tianjin Jianghu.】

She emptied her mind and walked uncontrollably to the front desk. She looked at the ticket girl and said, "Hello, please give me a ticket for "Master", the closest one."

"Okay, would you like a popcorn and cola combo? We have package A and package B here." The ticket girl said with a professional smile.

"No, thank you." Lin Erhua shook her head.

Soon, the movie tickets were issued, and it was for a show that allowed direct admission to a medium-sized theater located at the innermost end.

Compared with the theater where they watched "Youth" earlier, the theater was very quiet. Including her, there were only four people in total.

This made Lin Erhua feel a little touched.

She thought back to twenty years ago.

Whenever a movie with Huo Chunliang's name on it was released, the venue would always be filled to capacity by at least two-thirds of the audience, and more often than not, the house was full and tickets were hard to come by.

现在
She sat down in her seat silently.

Watch a movie by yourself, watch his movie.

Just like twenty years ago.

It’s just that a lot of things have changed. The cinema is still the cinema, but everything else is different.

When the opening credits disappeared and that familiar figure appeared on the screen, she suddenly felt something touched in her heart.

Familiar face, familiar figure, but compared with twenty years ago, the man on the screen now is wearing a suit, sitting firmly in the seat, watching the graceful dance of the blond foreign girl, with a cigar in his mouth.

There are many more wrinkles on his face, just like the marks left by time.

There is also a beard and a weathered look in the eyes.

He no longer has the heroic appearance of the jade-faced warrior of the past.

It's him, he's changed
