Chapter 377 Watching a Movie for the First Time
Seeing that what those people said was becoming more and more outrageous, Yang Tao began to lose his patience.
"What are you talking about?"
"Is it because Brother Tan Chen's parents don't allow them to go to the capital?"
"That's because Sister Ruoting and Brother Tan Chen are reluctant to leave here. Didn't you see? Brother Tan Chen's grandfather and mother are here to accompany them."
In fact, after Yang Tao said this, many people have already agreed with what she said.
Tan Chen's family built several greenhouses here. I don't know about other things, but the one for growing mushrooms can produce a batch in less than a month, and I can see the big trucks from the city transporting them out one after another.
With such a lucrative business, who would be willing to leave?
However, some people still felt embarrassed to be scolded by such a little girl.
"Yang Tao, you're just a little girl, why are you mentioned everywhere when adults are talking?"
Yang Tao was unconvinced: "Why? Do you think what I said makes sense and you feel ashamed?"
"You...how did a little girl like you learn to be so sharp-tongued?"
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen were originally focusing on the two electrical appliances that Xiao Li brought. When they heard the noise outside, they looked in the direction of the sound.
Shang Ruoting knew that Yang Tao was speaking for her family, and was afraid that she would suffer, so she quickly asked Tan Chen to go out and stop those people.
Tan Chen was too lazy to argue with those who liked to gossip, so he glared at them fiercely.
When those people saw Tan Chen's fierce aura, they shut up instantly.
Tan Chen invited Yang Tao and himself into the yard, and at the same time closed the gate.
Yang Tao looked at their TV and washing machine with envy, and took the eel he brought to the kitchen.
If Sister Ruoting had new electrical appliances at home, people would definitely be busy with them. The little girl was tactful and left after saying a few words.
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen both knew their parents' good intentions, especially Tan Chen, who had truly felt the feeling of being cared for and protected by his loved ones.
Tan Chen had seen people in the city install an antenna outside their homes after buying a TV. The antenna was placed high up, and was usually tied to the chimney of their house.
He did the same thing and made his own outdoor TV antenna.
At present, the television can receive programs from three TV stations: the national station, the provincial station and the municipal station.
The TV is placed in the center of the living room so everyone can watch it at any time.
Shang Ruoting felt that this TV was her savior.
Tan Chen usually watched her and didn't let her do anything. Apart from taking a few walks every day between her home and the wasteland, she would just hold her high school textbooks to pass the time. She had almost torn those books apart.
However, this is the way of the times. There are no entertainment activities. People only work, eat and sleep. Their lives are very monotonous.
Now that she has this TV, Shang Ruoting finally doesn't have to flip through textbooks all day.
Although there are only three TV stations and the content broadcast on them is very simple, Shang Ruoting is already very satisfied.
She also found that the televisions and movies of this era were very realistic, and there were no commercials interrupting the viewing process, so it was still very enjoyable to watch.
At least you can watch a movie from beginning to end, even if you watch the same one every few days.
It was the first time that Tan Chen discovered that his wife actually had a hobby of watching movies.
As far as she knew, many city people would go to the movies when they were dating. But thinking about herself, she had never taken her wife to see a movie.
So, on a sunny morning, Tan Chen took Shang Ruoting to Zhuang City to watch their first movie.
Shang Ruoting also prepared some popcorn and juice in the space with a sense of ceremony.
This period was different from later generations, as films were played repeatedly.
The two of them came to watch a movie on a whim. The movie being shown in the cinema today was "The Red Star."
Shang Ruoting had heard of this movie in her previous life, but unfortunately it was too old for her and she had never seen it. However, she was very absorbed in watching it and even felt sentimental from time to time.
The couple's life is getting smoother and smoother. At the same time, Shang Ruoting's belly is getting bigger and bigger. Now she is one month pregnant and looks about the same as others who are six or seven months pregnant.
Especially the lower abdomen and sides of the waist, which were not spared from the bulging patterns.
After seeing this, Tan Chen felt so distressed that he wished he could get pregnant instead of his wife.
A few days later, Li Jiasheng received a summons from the capital. Thanks to Mr. Tan's personal letter, his fate of going to jail was indeed avoided. However, his military status was completely revoked and he was given a disciplinary warning.
To put it bluntly, this punishment means that you will not receive corresponding treatment and arrangements after leaving the army.
Li Jiasheng had been mentally prepared for these things. As long as he didn't go to jail, everything could start over.
