Chapter 153 Let's Show a Movie

So, on the day Fang Mingche signed up, Fang's father, Fang's mother, Yanyan and Kangkang all went. It was still Master He's car, and they were all taken there.

Fang's mother said, "It would be convenient to go to school in this small car. It only takes more than ten minutes to get to the dormitory."

Fang Mingche said, "I dare not do that. I will be criticized later. It's more convenient for me to ride a 28-bar bicycle."

However, a small rattan chair had to be taken down. Otherwise, he would have to show his name again.

While it was still early, Fang Mingche planned to take them to the dormitory first, and then take them around the campus. The registration procedures for the next semester of the university school year were much simpler. When he signed up, he asked them to sit on the long bench outside.

Then he took them to continue to walk around and take pictures. They went to the cafeteria to have lunch at noon and then went back.

Fang's father and mother took taking pictures at the university where their son was studying seriously. They would definitely take them back to show the whole village in the future.

Walking to the teaching building of the English Department, Fang Mingche went in to register. Fang's father was holding the camera. He was wearing his son's newly bought clothes from top to bottom, which looked quite decent. Fang's father must be good to have a son of Fang Mingche's height and appearance. He was fifty years old, with a straight back and looked quite elegant.

He had a Seagull camera hanging around his neck, for fear of accidentally dropping it. Hanging it around his neck and holding it with his hands, it was an extra layer of insurance. Many people passing by looked at the four of them.

Those who knew said, "They are the parents of Fang Mingche from Class X of the English Department. I heard that he and others opened a foreign travel agency, and some people in our class went to work part-time for a few days during the winter vacation. They pay five yuan a day, which is not bad!" "

Oh, the one with a child seat on the crossbar of the bicycle?"

"Yes, that's him. I heard that his business is doing well and he has connections above him."

Zhu Wenjuan also came to register with her roommate at this time, and saw Fang's father and mother rushing over to say hello. Her roommate had accompanied her to the small courtyard for a BBQ before, and she also came over with a smile.

Zhu Wenjuan had been to the compound two days ago to give away local specialties brought from home. At that time, Grandpa Gu introduced this to Fang's father and mother, saying that this was his daughter-in-law who was about to marry into the family.

At that time, Fang's mother even grumbled in her heart that other people's daughters-in-law had a bachelor's degree, while their daughter-in-law was only a junior college student.

Fang Mingche also told her about introducing Zhu Wenjuan to Wang Fang as an English tutor. Zhu Wenjuan was very happy to go. She would be charged by the class hours, and she could also make friends with the powerful. If she had something to do in the future, at least she would have a place to ask for help.

If Fang Mingche had not made friends with the children of the powerful by chance, he would not have been able to open that foreign travel agency no matter how capable he was. Only now did they realize that when Fang Mingche took them to the Forbidden City to play, he was probably already prepared to open a foreign travel agency. He really sees farther than others.

Of course, the Wang family will definitely test her. There are many people who are willing to be tutors, and she is just a backup.

At this moment, the two of them are very enthusiastic about Fang's father and mother. Fang Mingche is good at dealing with people and is generous. He is popular in the class, especially in the dormitory.

Zhu Wenjuan said, "Are you waiting for Xiao Fang?"

Fang's mother smiled and said, "Yes, classmate Zhu, let's take a break. You should sign up quickly. Mingche will be out soon."

"Okay, we will go in first. Yanyan, little brother, goodbye!"

Yanyan waved, "Goodbye, two aunts!"

Kang Kang also waved with her, "Auntie, goodbye."

After the people walked away, Fang's mother whispered, "I see that Kang Kang has been in the capital for more than ten days, and he looks completely different."

Fang's father said, "Then you stay?"

Given the situation of the second child's family, if Kang Kang is to stay, an adult must stay to take care of him.

"Let's talk about it in a few years." Fang's mother said.

After Fang Mingche came out, he said to them, "I'm going to visit Grandpa Wang's health doctor, Dr. Liu. The older generation often said that the best doctor is to treat illness before it occurs. I'm going to ask him to feel my pulse and see if there's anything I need to pay attention to recently. Mom and Dad should go see him too, since they're off duty today."

The old man was very stubborn. If he asked them to go, he would definitely say that he was not sick and there was no need to bother.

Father Fang hesitated and said, "Will it be too much trouble for them?"

"No, I'm very close to the Wang family now."

Mother Fang said, "Then you should take Ah Yan to see her."

"Dr. Liu is not an obstetrician and gynecologist. He specializes in maintenance. As for Ah Yan, Military Doctor Yang came to see her before, and the prenatal checkup was all normal."

Father Fang said, "Maintenance?" He came to his senses a little.

The second child is only 25 years old, how can he need maintenance? Forget it, it's hard for him to ask someone for help and find such an excuse. Let him go.

Doctor Liu also lives in the expert building in the dormitory area of ​​301 Hospital. So when Wang Dexian said that, Fang Mingche knew how to go. He pointed the way to Master He in the passenger seat and asked him to drive over.

"Master He, don't wait for us. Wang Dexian will take us back later." After getting off the car at the gate of the compound, Fang Mingche bent down and said to the car.

Master He nodded and went straight to solicit other business. Just then, someone came out from inside, so he drove over to ask. Then the other party opened the door and got in the car.

Fang Mingche and others watched the car drive away. Fang's mother said, "Didn't Master He say that it's hard to attract business? And he also said that few people are willing to spend money to take a car these days."

Fang Mingche said, "That depends on where you are."

Fang's mother nodded. That's true. The people living here and the people living in the Overseas Chinese Apartment should be willing to take a taxi if they don't drive themselves.

This time when she came to Beijing, thanks to her youngest son, she met all the rich and noble people. But the old man warned her not to show off when she returned. Some things, if made public, will attract jealousy and may cause unnecessary trouble.

Wang Dexian estimated the time to come downstairs from Yang's house and meet them at the door. Then he led them to Dr. Liu's house.

Fang Mingche had asked him to bring the thank-you gift to Dr. Liu.

It was not a valuable thing, just a local specialty from Dr. Liu's wife's hometown. It was said that there were not many people in the old lady's family, so no one sent it to her. He always missed her, but he had no time to go back to his hometown.

Fang Mingche asked Sister Cui to ask an acquaintance in the black market to get it, and it immediately touched Dr. Liu's heart.

Wang Dexian said with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, come this way!"

Fang's father said: "Xiao Wang, thank you for your help!"

"No trouble, just a matter of convenience. Xiao Fang knows that my girlfriend's family lives here."

Fang's father smiled and said nothing more. The chief's health doctor, in ancient times, must have a rank. Can he be easily invited?

Oh, no, he also has a rank now. This is one of the reasons why he followed suit and followed very obediently. There is

another reason, he is a little repulsive to Western medicine. He doesn't like people holding equipment on his body to look and listen to him. But he believes in the traditional Chinese medicine of looking, smelling, asking and touching.

Dr. Liu's house is quite big, about 120 square meters. But Wang Dexian said it is still smaller than Yangmei's grandfather's. The allocation of houses also depends on qualifications and ranks.

Dr. Liu is in his early fifties and is very kind. After greeting and sitting down, he took out the pulse pillow and said to Fang's father, "Put your hand there."

The two children were invited by Dr. Liu's wife to sit on the sofa and watch TV, and then they were given snacks to eat.

Fang Kang followed his cousin in everything. This was taught by his grandfather. When he was away from home and didn't know how to do it, he learned from his second sister.

Fang Mingche and Wang Dexian also sat down. Fang Mingche whispered to Wang Dexian, "Are you going to use that big single room in the tube building as your wedding room?"

Wang Dexian said, "It's quite good to have such a single room these days. There are also people who live in such a big house with three generations living together."

You think everyone is like you, who can buy a small courtyard with a single door and a single family by chance.

When he got married, the old man said that he had no cash on hand, so he was responsible for hosting the wedding banquet at the military district's small kitchen, and he couldn't take care of the housing. There are so many grandchildren, why would he take care of them all? Let him look at the dividend of one twelfth of the travel agency's shares, and he was thirsty.

He even joked, "When you have two cars, each one costs more than 800 yuan, and you will become a millionaire in one year. Now you are going to add another car soon, and it is estimated that you can earn 15,000 yuan a year."

15,000 yuan is really just a wishful thinking, and you can't get a penny. Xiao Fang said that he would buy three commercial vehicles this year, and then see if there is any money in the account at the end of the year. If there is, he must first arrange for someone to go abroad in London or Paris. Then he will distribute dividends as appropriate

. What can he say? Xiao Fang himself didn't take a penny. He didn't have money to repair the house where someone was hanged, so he could only make do for now.

Oh, he also borrowed 7,000 yuan to buy a car. According to Gao Xiang, the money in the scrap yard was almost drained. Although it was only used for one month, it was also given 70 yuan in interest. But how can you just take it out?

Boss Cui didn't dare to invest more, after all, he borrowed 5,000 yuan. Only Lao Zhou was anxious to get more money, and probably wanted to exchange some dollars at the travel agency to send his daughter abroad, so he agreed to take 3,000 yuan.

It is definitely more cost-effective to exchange dollars at a travel agency than on the black market. Even if the exchange rate is higher than that of the central bank, it is definitely lower than that of the black market. And he doesn't have to take any risks.

As for his father, with his stepmother by his side, he will definitely not be very generous to him. It is quite good to pay the three transfers, one ring and 400 betrothal gifts. He also muttered that he is actually the richest person in the family besides the old man. If the travel agency had not distributed dividends, the money should have been paid by himself. He also hinted that he should be more generous to the family when he can get dividends in the future.

And he himself, the 400 he saved in the past has been paid to Xiao Fang as a reward. The 200 he saved this year was spent on dating. If he is not generous when dating, it will definitely not work.

Then where can he live if he doesn't live in the single room in the tube building allocated by the unit after marriage? Yangmei hasn't been allocated a room yet. The unit is short of housing, and her father is noble and asks her not to compete with colleagues from other places and live at home.

"But he is used to living in the expert building. It's a bit unfair for him to live in the tube building with you, right? Also, the doctor is so busy, who will cook and do housework? There are many practical problems in marriage."

Fang Mingche said with the tone of an experienced person, and stood up and stood behind his father to listen to what Dr. Liu said. What Wang Dexian wanted to say was stuck in his throat and couldn't be said.

Dr. Liu carefully felt Fang's father's pulse, and then said: "It's nothing serious. It's mainly due to long-term fatigue and malnutrition. Just pay attention to recuperation in the future. No need to take medicine specifically, I will prescribe some food supplements for you. Food supplements are not as good as medicine supplements!"

Fang's father smiled and said: "Doctor Liu, my second son is too nervous and has caused you trouble."

Doctor Liu said: "It's a good thing to know how to worry about your parents."

Fang Mingche was relieved. It seems that the old man is not sick yet and is healthy. Then try to let him have a thorough physical examination every six months.

Then Dr. Liu took Fang's mother's pulse again, and the same situation occurred. Nowadays, Chinese people are thin and muscular, and the problems of these two people are also common. He specially picked relatively affordable dishes so that he wouldn't feel too much pressure to eat them daily for a long time.

When leaving, Fang Mingche took the diet menu and said, "Thank you, Dr. Liu, for your trouble."

"You're welcome, it's just a small favor."

He would naturally do his best for the people that Chief Wang values. Besides, his wife likes the gifts so much. Besides, it's really not a big deal. It only took about ten minutes.

After going downstairs, Wang Dexian drove them back to the small side courtyard. He had said goodbye before leaving Yang's house.

Fang's mother said, "Xiao Wang, please take us home."

"You're welcome, aunt. I was going to see my mother too."

There is another troublesome thing today. His father hopes that his mother will not appear as the mother of the groom at the wedding, so as to avoid the guests from talking about it. This should be the stepmother's idea, but his father probably thinks the same way. After all, when the disaster came, his mother chose to fly away separately.

But he was raised by his mother, so he is in a dilemma now. After sending the Fang family back to the small courtyard, he did not rush into the alley, but smoked and talked with Fang Mingche under the tree.

Fang Mingche frowned. This situation was indeed embarrassing.

"If your mother doesn't show up, should your stepmother show up? Otherwise, it will hurt your mother's heart! After all, she is a good mother. Your stepmother is not without a son anyway. She may not want to show up. Arranging a marriage is still tiring."

Fang Mingche was speaking the truth. No matter how Wang Dexian's mother is as a wife, she is a very good mother.

Wang Dexian nodded, "That's right. Let the two of them, no, all four of them, come to the table. But let my dad show up alone. The arrangements for the wedding banquet will be entrusted to my grandfather's secretary."

By then, all the guests will be from the Wang family, so let's do it.

Fang Mingche patted his shoulder. You can be smooth and sophisticated when you are around. But you still have to recognize your biological mother. Even if she really did something wrong, a son will never dislike his mother.

Wang Dexian figured it out, and said, "Fortunately, you asked me to run this foreign travel agency together. In this way, I don't have to be controlled by my father everywhere. Otherwise, that aunt whispers in his ear all day long, which is really bad."

He now relies on the old man's appreciation to gain a foothold in the Wang family.

Fang Mingche said, "Don't, opening a foreign travel agency can't be done without you, and I don't know how long it will be postponed! By that time, I'm afraid there will be no room for an ordinary person like me to enter. Or even if it is done well, I can't protect it. There are people everywhere who can reach out!"

Wang Dexian thought about what he said before that he couldn't hold it, and smiled.

"I'm going in!"

Fang Mingche nodded, and then said, "By the way, Zhu Wenjuan agreed to be your cousin's tutor. When is the right time to arrange for her to come for an interview?"

"Oh, I'll ask my aunt first, and I'll call you when the time comes."

"Okay!"

Then, Fang Mingche and Yanyan went to school, and Lin Yan was pregnant again.

He found a part-time tour guide for a one-day tour, took Master He's car, and took turns to take his parents and nephew to continue to go out. He also went to Tianjin to take a look.

The tour guide for a one-day tour still paid five yuan a day in addition to reimbursement of actual expenses. The part-time poor students who didn't have classes were still very happy.

At this time, Fang Mingche really experienced what it meant to say "Problems that can be solved with money are not problems!"

That afternoon, Fang's father and others came back from Tianjin by train. As soon as they entered the door, they asked Fang Mingche, "Second brother, we heard on the train that Hebei is quite chaotic?"

It's not cost-effective to take Master He's black car from the capital to Tianjin. The part-time tour guide took them there by train. On the train, people say all kinds of things.

Fang Mingche nodded, "Yes, the Cleaver Gang in Tangshan, Hebei is very rampant."

Fang's father said, "How could this be?"

He farmed in his hometown, and had been visiting scenic spots in the capital some time ago, but he really didn't feel that the public security was bad.

"Nowadays, many educated youth who have returned to the city can't find jobs, and there are already many unemployed young people in society. Without a stable life, some people take risks. As for Tangshan, Hebei, it is also related to the previous major earthquake. Many people were displaced and their families were broken up."

For this major earthquake, the country certainly doesn't have the money to provide the rescue, reconstruction and compensation efforts that were done in Sichuan, Qinghai and other places in the future. As the saying goes, the treasury is empty! Even a good cook cannot cook without rice.

Fang Mingche continued, "So, I told you to take the sleeper berths. Nowadays, many people also rob trains. But the security forces in the sleeper berths should be concentrated. There are too many hard-seat carriages, and facing the random robbers, the train police are often exhausted and unable to take care of one thing while focusing on another. Moreover, although those people know that the people in the sleeper berths will have more money, they are also afraid of offending people who should not be offended. They often target the hard seats!"

Fang's father and mother were shocked, "Then you take Yanyan on the way to Beijing."

"It's Brother Mingfeng. It was much safer to drive to Guangzhou a year ago than it is now. But don't worry, the police have been arresting people all the time."

In two years, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be retired from the army, and then the rule of law will be implemented, the country will be built according to law, and illegal activities in society will be eradicated.

Fang's father was silent for a long time and said, "Fortunately, Beijing is still quite safe."

Fang's mother said, "The village is also very safe."

Fang Mingche said, "Half of the people in the village have the surname Fang, and they live together. How can it not be safe?"

After class on Saturday, Lao Cheng, Xiao Xu, Zheng Xing and others said to Fang Mingche, "We want to go to your travel agency to have a look." Everyone was very curious about the Overseas Chinese Apartment.

Zheng Xing was not curious, as he had been to the Overseas Chinese Apartment a long time ago. But he liked to join in the fun of group activities. Moreover, he had only been to the households, not the office.

When his grandfather heard that it was his college roommate who opened a foreign travel agency with the Wang family, he asked a few questions with interest. He also told him to learn from Fang Mingche's vision and courage.

Fang Mingche said, "Tonight or tomorrow?"

Tonight was the first time a foreign language movie was shown, and the people in the travel agency said they wanted to stay and watch it. Even his family was very curious and prepared to go and join in the fun. If he wanted to bring his classmates with him, he would have to put the projection equipment in the living room and dining room. Moreover, so many desks would probably have to be pushed aside to accommodate so many people.

"Tomorrow during the day, it won't interfere with your normal work."

Fang Mingche nodded, "Okay, how about you go there by yourself tomorrow?"

It's much easier to arrange it in two days. Besides, students in the English Department will have plenty of opportunities to watch the original soundtrack in the future.

"Let's go by ourselves. In the afternoon, everyone go home first. After watching in the afternoon, go back to school together." This way, both sides will not be delayed.

"Okay!"

Qiu Yin had come here in Master He's black taxi in the morning and took back all the film reels that Fang Mingche rented. At this time, it is estimated that the projection equipment has been bought back by Gao Xiang. He is also responsible for learning how to show movies.

As a college student, Gao Xiang should have no problem learning this. But this job will definitely be handed over to Wei You in the long run.

In the evening, Fang Mingche returned to the small side courtyard, and Liu Qingfeng, Geng Shan, Hu Yong and others came over. These people all watched TV in the small side courtyard at night. They heard Yanyan and Fang Kang say that there would be a movie showing in the office tonight, so they wanted to go and see it.

The second sister went to school, and Fang Kang felt that it was not very fun on weekdays. They had visited almost all the scenic spots, even the Great Wall. He was thinking about going home.

Father Fang likes to stroll around Tiananmen Square when he has nothing to do. This time, he will go back and tell all the young and old men in the village that he strolls around Tiananmen Square when he has nothing to do after dinner. They will be so jealous!

At this moment, Fang Mingche looked at Liu Qingfeng and the other six people, "Okay, let's go together later. But there are not so many seats in the business car, I'm afraid you will all have to stand. "

The chassis of the business car has a strong load-bearing capacity. It is not a problem for some people to stand.

"No problem, no problem!"

"Also, it's all in English. I played it for the people in the travel agency to stimulate their enthusiasm for learning foreign languages."

Hu Yong said, "Didn't Yanyan say that there is Chinese downstairs?"

Fang Mingche nodded, "Okay, we'll set off when my brother-in-law and his wife arrive. They're already on the way."

Naturally, Han Mei heard about this and encouraged Lin Yi to come along. Let's go back together after reading it, anyway, tomorrow is Sunday.

Han Mei borrowed the novel "Gone with the Wind" to read, and she loved it! So when my mother-in-law told me that this movie was going to be shown tonight, I was very excited to go.

Fang Mingche remembered something else, "Oh, right. The movie is nearly four hours long. If we go there now, it will be almost over at eleven o'clock."

When he heard that his brother-in-law and his wife were coming to watch a movie, he always asked them to take the bus. He would then send them back at night.

Everyone was shocked, "It's so long?"

Movies are usually 100 minutes long, and the longest ones are only more than two hours.

"Yes, it's that long! If only the first part is shown, I guess many people won't do it."

In the end, Liu Qingfeng and others decided to go. As I said, tomorrow is Sunday!

Fang Mingche thought of the basic contradiction of socialism: the contradiction between the people's growing material and cultural needs and the backward social productivity!

Nowadays, someone can walk twenty miles to watch a movie. Well, their village is that far from the county town. When "The Flower Girl" was shown a few years ago, many young people in the village walked together to watch it. Just to save the 60 cents round-trip fare.

Now, several acquaintances from the nearby compound are going together, and there is a car to pick them up. Tomorrow is Sunday again, so even more people want to go. Of course, most of them are young people, and they bring their own benches.

When Lin Yi and Han Mei appeared at the door, everyone had already boarded the bus and sat down. A business car was packed to the brim.

Lingzi stuck her head out, "Hurry up, we're waiting for you two. Go into the house and bring two benches, we're leaving now!"

Fang Mingche's parents each held a child and sat down, and Aunt Yuan, Wang Dexian's mother, and Qin Hua also sat down. Lingzi's parents had seats because of the phone and borrowing money, and the same was true for Boss Cui and Sister Cui. There were also two tour guides from the travel agency who had been out all day. The rest of the people in the office and the neighbors who followed had to stand. Teacher Gao and Xiao Xie also stood.

Well, Fang Mingche drove! With so many people, he didn't dare to hand over the steering wheel to Lingzi, who had just passed the driving school test a few days ago.

Lin Yan and Lin's mother were not going. The movie was nearly four hours long, and Lin Yan, a pregnant woman, couldn't stand it. If it was 100 minutes, she might have gone along.

Seeing how lively the car was, Lin Yi and Han Mei went into the house and got a bench and squeezed in. Their faces were almost pressed against the car window glass, and they couldn't help laughing.

Lin Yan said, "It's not surprising. After watching model operas for ten years, everyone is very rare for good movies." Lin

's mother nodded and said, "That's right, even an old lady like Aunt Yuan went along."

Aunt Yuan was naturally invited by Fang Mingche. Anyway, he said that if they didn't like it, he would send a car back halfway. His parents and two children definitely couldn't watch for four hours and had to come back halfway.

Aunt Yuan thought, then just go along and have some foreign food.

"Don't say that about her, Aunt Yuan is actually very flexible." Lin Yan smiled.

A car drove over in a hurry. Because the license plate number was registered, the car drove in directly.

Everyone took the elevator upstairs, all with a look of surprise on their faces. This is the legendary Overseas Chinese Apartment! Apart from anything else, this elevator is also very rare in Beijing.

The conference room is about 30 square meters. After all, it is a large apartment with an area of ​​240 square meters, and each room is not small. It is empty inside, and there is no money to buy it. If we need to have a meeting, everyone can carry their own stools in. Save as much as possible! It is convenient to use it as an audio-visual room at the moment.

The children and young people who carried the small stools sat in the front. There were only four children in total, after all, there was limited space in the car. In addition to Yanyan and Kangkang, only Niuniu and Song Chi came with them. They were accompanied by Aunt Yuan and Qin Hua. Then Fang's father, Fang's mother and others directly carried the high stools in the office and sat in the back row.

"Who put it down?" Looking at the curtain hanging in front, everyone asked. No one moved.

Fang Mingche said, "Gao Xiang. He went to get the machine this afternoon and learned how to play movies."

Everyone looked around, "Where is Mr. Gao?"

Someone said, "The elevator is full, he and Xiao Xie are in the next group."

Aunt Yuan said, "Then you have to give them two seats. They are still waiting for them to put them in. Xiao Fang, I'll take a look at your office. I've heard about the Overseas Chinese Apartment for 18 years, and today I have the opportunity to come in and take a look."

The neighbors also scattered and went to visit everywhere. In addition to those who have already seen it, only Wang Dexian's mother can stay. As the daughter-in-law of a high-ranking official, she has seen better houses.

If you ask her if she regrets what happened back then, she will definitely say that she doesn't regret it even if she grits her teeth. It's impossible to regret it! However, she remarried after the divorce, and her life is indeed not bad. Moreover, as long as her son is promising, she will definitely live a good life in the future. So, she won't look back. Lao Qin treats her well, so she lives with him steadily and educates Qin Hua well. She can't help her son much, but she will never hold him back.

Soon, Gao Xiang, Xiao Xie and the second group of people came up. He immediately started to tinker with the machine and called Wei You to come over and watch.

Tomorrow is Sunday. Wei You, who usually goes home to read after watching the "News Broadcast", wants to indulge himself today.

"Let's start, let's start--"

The people who were visiting all around came back. At this time, everyone has taken off their outer coats. There is no room for the hangers at the door, so they put them on the desk.

A large group of people started watching. Foreign films are rarely watched, but at least there are Chinese subtitles. People these days don't play with electronic products, and there are very few nearsighted people, so they can all see the subtitles clearly.

Fang Mingche noticed that his father was actually quite devoted to watching. Then he quickly realized that his father could understand Scarlett and her father's love for Tara Manor and the land. He probably empathized with the plantation owners in the southern United States.

His mother was also very interested in watching the love and hatred between Scarlett, Rhett Butler, Melanie, and Ashley Wilkes.

As for the young men in the compound, their eyes lit up when they saw Scarlett O'Hara and the other girls in big puffy skirts. This was completely different from what they saw everyday.

The four kids were the only ones who were not interested. They just watched the bright colors and the excitement.

After a while, Yanyan looked at her father and whispered, "Dad, I don't understand." They had waited for so long in vain, and today was even more exciting for nothing.

Fang Mingche thought to himself: It would be strange if you could understand it.

"Okay, I'll drive you kids back. Is there anyone else who wants to go back?"

No one paid any attention to him, as they were all absorbed in watching. Tomorrow is Sunday, and everyone has nothing to do.

Fang Mingche looked at Gao Xiang and handed him the door key.

Gao Xiang was shocked and whispered, "You don't want to watch it?" He thought that Xiao Fang would drive over again after sending the kids back.

Fang Mingche thought to himself: I don't know how many times I've seen it.

The three drivers also wanted to watch it very much, but no one stood up and said that they could just make a trip themselves. After work, Chinese people still value their own time outside of the eight hours. It's okay, it's okay to work overtime. But I really want to see it now!

Fang Mingche smiled and said, "Forget it, I'll go watch it again with Ayan later." Then he said, "Let's go."

The four children followed Fang Mingche out with regret.

For the first group of five people, Fang Mingche drove very slowly, fearing that the children would not be able to sit steadily. Fortunately, there are few cars now, and it's cold, so not many people are out and about.

There is another car at the travel agency, and Lingzi will take everyone back later. Fang Mingche doesn't have to drive there again. But he has to drive there early tomorrow morning, otherwise it will delay the normal operation of the travel agency.

Before leaving, Fang Mingche reminded Lingzi to be careful when driving. She was watching the show with great interest, and quickly nodded in agreement.

The four children had no idea how cautious Fang Mingche was when driving. Yanyan and Niuniu were discussing Scarlett O'Hara's and the others' beautiful skirts. This was the only thing they were interested in. The two little girls even gestured with their hands, saying that the hem of the skirt was so big!

Fang Mingche wondered if the Friendship Store had Barbie dolls for sale. If there were, he could buy one for Yanyan, and buy her a dozen outfits to replace the dolls. Little girls would definitely like these. Well, he could buy one for Fang Tong as well. With a beautiful doll, who would want to play in the mud and hold an "aunt's banquet"?

Song Chi and Fang Kang just had no interest at all. They were too lazy to talk. The higher their hopes were before, the more disappointed they were now.

After arriving home, Fang Mingche asked his mother-in-law to take care of Yanyan and Kangkang's washing and brushing, and he sent Niuniu and Song Chi back to the compound and handed them over to their parents.

Their parents laughed and said, "I told you it's an English movie, and it's for adults, how can you understand it? And Uncle Fang even bothered to send you back."

Fang Mingche said, "It's okay, my Yanyan is the same as them. If we don't let them go, they will definitely feel guilty. Once they go, they will know that it's really not suitable for them to watch by themselves." Next time, he wouldn't think about going with them to watch it.

Song Quan and Fang Mingche said, "We have a young leader transferred from another handicraft cooperative. I have also mentioned Comrade Wang's suggestion of trying to increase revenue and reduce expenditure to the leader. When the new young leader came, he wanted us to give half of the storefront to the cooperative he worked for before. This caused resistance from everyone. I took the opportunity to suggest that we use the consignment method instead."

Their biggest advantage now is that they took the initiative and built a storefront in Dashilan. How could they give it to others for no reason?

Fang Mingche said, "Well, in the future, you should just focus on improving your skills and don't worry about other things. Among the twelve zodiac signs, you should focus on practicing the dragon. This is the most distinctive and you can tell at a glance that it represents China."

Pandas are not yet acceptable. They are not national treasures yet. We have to wait until the star giant panda Bass who can ride a bicycle, shoot basketballs, and walk on a balance beam comes out. Only then will the status of the panda as a national treasure be confirmed. Well, Bass is the prototype of the panda Panpan, the mascot of the 1990 Asian Games.

Song Quan pondered and said, "Dragon?" It is difficult to make it up well.

"Yes, you try. After you make it up, the travel agency can place an order with you and give it as a souvenir to foreign tourists."

"I'll try."

Then Fang Mingche went to Gao's house and talked to Gao Xiang's mother.

"Aunt Gao, Gao Xiang and Xiao Xie will probably be back after eleven o'clock. You should go to bed early."

Gao's mother said, "Speaking of watching movies, I was also so concerned when I was young. Let them be young people! I will go to bed early."

Xiao Xie's family status has risen significantly since he started to support himself. If Gao Xiang had to ask for money to buy a needle before, Gao's mother would not be so easy to talk to. And every move had to be taken care of by her. But in fact, she could do some things slowly by herself.

Now, she seemed more reasonable.

Fang Mingche said goodbye quickly. His parents were not back, so he let Kang Kang sleep next to Yan Yan. Anyway, both of them were short, and sleeping at one end would not take up much space.

Then he settled Lin Yan to sleep, and he lay on the outside of the bed with his clothes on to read. His back blocked the light, but it did not affect Lin Yan's sleep.

Fang Mingche was reading a book on business management borrowed from the library. He had never learned relevant theoretical knowledge in his two lives, and now he was catching up. Unfortunately, he was too busy now. After the second child was born and life returned to normal, he could try to audit the School of Economics and Management. He could even go to the predecessor of the famous Peking University Guanghua School to take classes.

Lin Yan got up to go to the toilet twice, and Fang Mingche accompanied her. Once her leg cramped, he helped to deal with it with experience. He

kept reading the book until after eleven o'clock, and then heard the sound of the business car coming back. So many people went there, and he would not be able to sleep until he saw that they all returned safely.

He walked out with a flashlight. Everyone had just watched a movie and discussed it all the way, and they were still a little excited.

The focus of the discussion was whether Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler could still be together in the future. There was controversy about this! But everyone said that Melanie's death was a pity. And Scarlett's little daughter, she must not be allowed to do dangerous things in the future.

Fang Mingche said, "Aunt Yuan, I'll take you guys back. Old Cui, Teacher Qiu, you can arrange it yourself."

Boss Cui and Qiu Yin also took out flashlights, "Yes, we have prepared everything."

Xiao Fang said in advance that he would be back at this time, so they must have brought flashlights. Nowadays, not every street lamp is good and bright, so you must prepare it yourself. Before returning, everyone went to enjoy the flush toilet.

The lights in the small side courtyard were already on when he just came out, so Fang's father and mother could walk back to the main house very conveniently.

Fang Mingche said, "Kang Kang is fast asleep, but he is not sleeping peacefully. I will wrap him in a quilt and carry him over later."

If he sleeps peacefully, he will sleep on their bed for the night. But if he doesn't sleep peacefully, I am afraid that he will kick his mother's belly. It's okay when he is watching by himself, but it will be difficult to do when he is sleeping.

Father Fang nodded, "Okay."

They also had to go back to the room to wash up and get ready for bed.

Aunt Yuan said, "Xiao Fang, there's no need to see me off. I will go over with Hu Yong and the others. We brought flashlights. I have to say, this foreign film is really good to watch."

"Yeah, it's a classic."

After they left, the rest of the people were still watching it with great concentration. The whole process was seamless, and everyone lined up to go to the toilet until Gao Xiang changed the film.
