Siheyuan: The Rebirth of the Silly Pillar in the 50s

Xu Damao's first day as an apprentice with He Yuzhu.

"Brother Zhuzi, why do you think my dad wants me to learn this? I won't be doing hard work in the future!"

He Yuzhu glanced at him helplessly.

Xu Damao, who has not been baptized by society, is really innocent and cute sometimes.

"Is working as a coolie the same as being a carpenter? Carpentry is a technical job. Take this bench as an example. They provide the wood themselves, and I provide the craftsmanship, and I earn him [-] yuan. If you work as a coolie, you can carry a sack. There aren’t ten thousand!”

Xu Damao scratched his head.

"makes sense."

"Your father asked you to learn from me, so you should study hard. One more skill will open up another path. Will learning more things make you suffer?"

Xu Damao looked at the wood on the ground and fell into deep thought.

It's not just that he's not interested in this stuff.

The main reason is that I haven’t learned it after studying for a long time. To be honest, I feel a little frustrated.

He couldn't even saw wood neatly.

There are many ways to learn carpentry, but is it too difficult?

How long does it take for him to learn?

"Brother Zhuzi!"

Xu Damao shouted again.

"what happened again?"

He Yuzhu turned back with a very impatient expression.

"Do you think there is a job in this world that can make you a lot of money without putting in a lot of effort?"

"I think the boy is daydreaming!"

He Yuzhu went up and gave Xu Damao a big neck slide.

I don't know what's going on in this kid's head.

He had a lot of hardships in the past when he learned to play movies from others.

It has nothing to do with him going to the countryside with others, riding in front of him and behind the horse, and the things given by the fellow villagers belong to the master.

He also daydreams, thinking that money can fall from the sky!

"I was just asking..."

Xu Damao was beaten and said aggrievedly: "It would be great if there really was such a job in the world. Then I wouldn't have to do anything in the future. Money would go into my pocket as soon as I open my eyes. It's wonderful to think about it." .”

"Do you want to learn or not?"

He Yuzhu curled his lips.

It seems that this kid really has no interest in learning carpentry.

Xu Damao didn't dare to tell the truth and could only remain silent.

"It's just the two of us, so you don't have to be afraid. If you really don't want to learn, I can explain it to your father. I won't betray you about our relationship."

"Don't tell my dad..."

Xu Damao quickly stopped him and said: "I can learn, but I think it is too slow to learn this thing. And what can I do after I finish learning? Can I work as a carpenter on the streets? What if my skills are not good? There’s no business!”

This guy is not stupid at all!

He Yuzhu smiled.

He still understands Xu Damao's nature.

This kid thinks about how to make more money with less work all day long. It is best to make money while lying down.

I can't bear any loss and I am too lazy to do hard work.

Regardless of such people, what the Chinese are best at is finding useless troubles for themselves, eating them again and again, and accomplishing nothing in the end.

People like this who know what they want and work hard to do it will live a good life.

"Forget it. I don't think you are interested in this either. Just tell me if you are interested, and I will take you there as long as you can tell."

"Agreed?"

"It's a word."

"Then I want to go to the movies!"

Xu Damao said that his eyes were filled with light when watching the movie.

"Let's go!"

He Yuzhu directly pulled Xu Damao up with a wave of his hand.

Xu Damao hasn't reacted yet.

He didn't expect He Yuzhu to be so kind to him.

He said it himself, and he actually took him there.

The two of them got on a bicycle, and Xu Damao was embarrassed to hold He Yuzhu even though he was a man.

"You act like a big girl! If you don't hold me tight, your father and I won't be able to explain it to you if you fall!"

Xu Damao no longer hesitated and grabbed the corner of He Yuzhu's clothes.

The two rode all the way to the cinema.

In the 50s, Beijing was much more developed than other cities, and entertainment facilities such as movie theaters have been retained from the Republic of China.

There weren't many movies shown.

Basically, they are all movies related to liberation.

The one currently being screened is "Longxugou".

Xu Damao fell in love with it at first sight and pointed at the movie pictorial to name this one.

When it came time to pay, he was ahead of He Yuzhu.

"Let me ask you to take a look, Brother Zhuzhu. After all, it was me who suggested it."

He Yuzhu smiled.

This kid is quite sensible.

"Where did you get the money?"

"My dad asked me to be an apprentice and gave me money to buy you popsicles."

No wonder in his previous life, Xu Damao was the most popular with women and also flattered his leaders.

Co-authoring these are all words and deeds.

On this point, Xu Wood is indeed better than He Daqing.

He Daqing himself often couldn't carry it clearly, let alone teaching children.

"Since you respect your master, I won't be polite to you."

He Yuzhu smiled and led Xu Damao into the cinema.

As soon as we entered, the movie started playing.

When Xu Damao went back to the cinema for the first time, he was so curious that he looked around.

He turned around and saw that there was a large window in the last row, and he could see the projector inside.

As soon as the lights in the cinema dimmed, the projector's beam hit the big screen, and the movie was played.

Xu Damao couldn't figure out this principle and curiously asked He Yuzhu: "How on earth was this movie released?"

"Projector, didn't you see it?"

"Why can a projector play a movie?"

"There's film reels."

"What's a movie reel?"

"Why do you have so many questions? Do you still want to watch a movie?"

He Yuzhu said fiercely.

Xu Damao shut up sarcastically, but his mind was not on the movie. He was always thinking about the projector and film.

From these two magical things, he thought of the movie staff.

He just observed that this theater shows two movies a day.

A movie is only two hours long at most.

You only work four hours a day. If you work four hours a day and earn about the same as a worker in a steel rolling mill...

Then isn’t this the work of a fairy?

Basically, you just go there and get the money without doing anything!

At this time, there was a sudden scream in the cinema.

"Ah! There are thieves!"

A swipe!

The cinema lights are on!

He Yuzhu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young man stealing a woman's bag.

There should be a few accomplices around.

The security guard held a flashlight and shouted: "You guys stop!"

"What's the use of just shouting!"

He Yuzhu couldn't help but complain.

Without saying a word, he stepped over Xu Damao's body and caught the leader of this gang of underage men in just a few steps.

"You're such a nosy person!"

"I really don't care today!"

He Yuzhu went up and punched him!
