Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

"Hey, what are you doing! If you have something to say, just talk it out. We are strangers who don't know each other well. There's no need to do this!" When Zhou Zhigang saw that the misunderstanding was resolved and the chef apologized, he did not hold on to him, but quickly supported Sun Erhei.

"Okay, your problem is solved! Erhei, quickly clean up the store! Master Zhou, do you have any other requests? If not, I'll go back! After all, I have to go back to work!" Zhao Cheng looked at the two people who were fighting just now and were now being polite to each other, and quickly stopped them from flattering each other.

"Comrade police officer, I hear your accent is from Northeast China? Where are you from?" Zhou Zhigang asked quickly when he saw Zhao Cheng was about to leave.

"Haha, listen to my accent, where is it from?" Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

"I guess it's either from Jichun or Siping Street!" Zhou Zhigang guessed.

"Well, you guessed right, I'm from Jichun too! I came to Peking before liberation! Now I'm the director of Xizhimen Police Station!" Zhao Cheng took the initiative to extend his hand.

"Oh, we are real fellow villagers! What a fate! My family is from Jichun! I work in the provincial construction! When you have time to go back, you must come to my home and visit!" When Zhou Zhigang heard that Zhao Cheng's hometown was also Jichun, his enthusiasm increased!

"No problem, Brother Zhou, please write down your home address for me! If I return to Jichun, I will definitely visit your house!" Zhao Cheng also responded enthusiastically.

After all, Zhou Zhigang can be said to be a friend who is truly worthy of deep friendship! Zhao Cheng is also very willing to make friends with such a person.

The two of them walked outside while talking. Sun Erhei watched the two people walking out of the restaurant from behind and could only sigh helplessly. After thinking about it, he slapped himself in the face again. What a stinky mouth!

After Zhao Cheng left, he said goodbye to Zhou Zhigang. After all, he had to go back to the institute. Zhao Cheng also knew that Zhou Zhigang came to Peiping to attend a meeting. As a senior worker in the unit, Zhou Zhigang had a very high technical level, so the unit sent him to attend the meeting with the leaders.

After making an appointment to meet again, Zhao Chengji returned to his workplace. It was time to get off work, so he rode his three-wheeled vehicle home.

The next day, Zhao Cheng had been sitting at the unit for a while when Zhou Zhigang came to see him.

"Oh, Brother Zhou, why are you here suddenly?" Zhao Cheng was very surprised to see Zhou Zhigang coming.

"Director Zhao, I'm leaving this afternoon. I thought you've been in Peking for several years and you must be missing the food from your hometown. Look, I brought a lot of food from our hometown with me when I came here, and I thought I'd send it to you so you can try it.

As he spoke, Zhou Zhigang opened the bag he brought, and inside were some wild delicacies from the Northeast, including hazelnuts, walnuts, melon seeds, and popcorn, but not the big-flowered kind, but the old-fashioned dumb beans!

Zhao Cheng felt a warm feeling in his heart as he looked at the things Zhou Zhigang had brought. In the TV series, Zhou Zhigang was portrayed as a warm-hearted man. No one in the entire Guangzi film could say anything against him. Throughout the Guangzi film, Zhou Zhigang was truly respected and virtuous, a testament to his conduct and actions.

And Zhou Zhigang is indeed the man who can raise a filial and good child like Zhou Bingkun. A father's words and deeds are really important.

Just from knowing each other for one day, Zhou Zhigang could tell that Zhao Cheng hadn't eaten his parents' food in the few years since he came to Peking, and it was obvious from the fact that he came directly to bring these good things to Zhao Cheng.

"Brother Zhou, how can we accept this? You can sell these things for a lot of money even if you don't take them back! Everyone's life is difficult now, this is not appropriate!" Zhao Cheng felt warm in his heart, but he couldn't accept it. After all, these things were already a considerable fortune for Zhou Zhigang's family.

"Oh, Brother Zhao Cheng, what you said is not right. We are fellow villagers. You haven't been back for so many years. I just happen to have some food from your hometown. Why are you being so formal with me? Do you look down on me as your brother?" Zhou Zhigang said with a serious expression as soon as he saw that Zhao Cheng didn't want it.

"But this, this thing is really expensive! If you want to buy these things in Beiping City, it will cost at least more than ten yuan!" Zhao Cheng really didn't want to add burden to Zhou Zhigang.

These things must have been brought by Zhou Zhigang to exchange for something. How could Zhao Cheng accept them?

"What? Director Zhao, do you look down on me? These things don't cost a dollar in total. Most of the popcorn was fried by your sister-in-law herself, so she didn't spend any money!" Zhou Zhigang said with a stern face.

Zhao Cheng saw that if he didn't accept it, Old Zhou would probably get anxious, so he had to accept it and think of a way to make it up to him later!

"How can that be? I'm just a small director. How can I look down on you, Brother Zhou? I'll take this thing! I can take it home and let the children taste something from my hometown!" said Zhao Cheng.

"Oh, that's right! Take the things back and let the children try them! It can't be that a person from Northeast China has never tasted these Northeast specialties, right?" Zhou Zhigang smiled happily when he heard that Zhao Cheng accepted his things.

The two chatted in the office for a while, and then Zhou Zhigang said goodbye, saying he had to go to the station to catch the train back soon. Zhao Cheng wanted to take him there on a tricycle, but Zhou Zhigang refused.

In the end, Zhao Cheng couldn't resist any more and had to give up.

Zhao Cheng stood at the entrance of the police station, watching Zhou Zhigang walk away, and felt deeply moved: this is a true Northeastern man! Enthusiastic, responsible, and loyal!

When Zhao Cheng took these things home that night, he was seen by Yan Fugui at the door, who asked Zhao Cheng curiously what he was taking.

Zhao Cheng said a fellow villager he knew had brought him some local specialties. However, Yan Fugui didn't bother asking about it, and didn't want to take advantage of Zhao Cheng. After all, Yan Fugui still had some dignity left, and when hard times came, Yan Fugui probably wouldn't be so easy to talk to. Zhao Cheng had to take out a handful of popcorn.

"Brother Cheng, what did you bring back?" Pingping took the bag from Zhao Cheng's hand and found that it was quite heavy, so she asked curiously.

"Do you remember Zhou Zhigang I told you about yesterday? He came to the police station to find me today. After hearing that I hadn't been back to my hometown for five or six years, he specially gave me some local specialties that he had brought to exchange for things to try." Zhao Cheng took off his coat and hung it on the hanger.

Pingping opened the bag and found a lot of hazelnuts and walnuts inside, and a lot of corn kernels underneath.

"I know hazelnuts and walnuts, but what's the name of these corn kernels? Are they edible too?" Pingping grabbed a handful of popcorn and asked Zhao Cheng.

"This is popcorn, a snack in our area. But it's not the kind that pops out of a popcorn machine. Instead, it's the kind that doesn't pop out but is fried in a large pot with fine sand. We call it dumb beans! Although it's a bit hard to eat, it's very fragrant! It tastes completely different from the kind that pops out." Zhao Cheng said as he grabbed a handful and stuffed it in his mouth. He bit into it hard and it was crispy, with a mouthful of corn aroma.

Seeing Zhao Cheng's intoxicated face, Pingping also took one and put it in her mouth to chew, and found that it was just as Zhao Cheng said, very fragrant.

"Hey, you know what, it's really delicious! It smells so good!" Pingping couldn't help but eat some more.

"Mom, what are you and Dad eating? Why does it smell so good?" Wei Hong came out from the inner room at this time, followed by Wei Dong and Wei Jun, who were also looking at their mother eagerly.

Pingping took some popcorn and fed one to each of the three children.

Because this kind of popcorn is very crispy and breaks into pieces when you bite it, so children can also eat it.

Several children were immediately attracted by this special popcorn and scrambled to eat it.

"Okay, don't eat too much, or you'll be too full to eat later! Ask your mother to put it away and eat it tomorrow!" Zhao Cheng stopped them quickly when he saw that several children wanted to eat more.

It’s time to eat soon. What’s the point of eating if you eat too much of this?

Wei Hong immediately looked unhappy, but when she saw that her father still refused to give in, she had no choice but to endure it and not eat.

As usual, after dinner, Zhao Cheng coaxed the three children to sleep. After returning to the room, Zhao Cheng hugged Pingping and whispered to her.

"Brother Cheng, what do you think we should give to the Zhou family? After all, as you said, their life doesn't seem to be very good and it's still very difficult!" Pingping said with a flushed face.

"I'll buy some specialties from Peking and mail them over one day. After all, we can't just give them money directly, or we'll become enemies!" Zhao Cheng said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, let's buy more. After all, our conditions are definitely better than theirs. We may not lack that little bit, but it may be a lot for them! We can't add to their burden!" Pingping said.

"I know. Do I need you to teach me? Just wait and see how I deal with you!" After saying that, Zhao Cheng started playing a small game with Pingping.
