Yun Muye rode a bicycle and took Gu Zhinian to the street. Gu Zhinian put one arm around his waist, rested his cheek on his broad back, closed his eyes and stayed quietly.
"Zhi Nian, shall we go to the movies?"
Gu Zhinian curled his lips and smiled slightly, his voice sounding coquettish.
"Okay, the child is three years old, and you've never taken me to the movies."
Yun Muye tilted his head slightly, looked at her tenderly, and freed his big hand to hold her hand on her waist.
"It's my fault. I'm taking you there today. What else do you want to do? I'll accompany you."
Gu Zhinian hugged his waist tightly with both hands, and covered his slender big hands with her slender and soft hands, and said slowly:
"No rush, for the rest of my life, you can slowly accompany me to do what I want to do."
"good."
A breeze blew, and Gu Zhinian's white floral dress fluttered in the wind. She pressed her bag on the skirt, lowered her head, and the centipede braid of her hair hung down and fell on her left shoulder. A few strands of hair were scattered casually in front of her forehead, adding a bit of softness and charm to her.
The bicycle was parked at the entrance of the cinema. Yun Muye locked the bicycle and walked into the cinema holding her hand. Today was Saturday and there were many people watching the movie. Most of them were men and women who came on dates. The boys were queuing up to buy tickets, and the girls were waiting at the door. The boys were dressed very smartly, and the girls were either coquettish or cute, all looking like they were in love.
Yun Muye brought her to an open space and said, "Wait for me. I'll go buy a ticket and be back soon."
"good."
Gu Zhinian waited for him obediently with her bag on her shoulder. A beautifully dressed girl next to her started talking to her.
"Is that man your boyfriend?"
Gu Zhinian turned his head and smiled politely.
"He's my husband, legally."
The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly. "Ah? Your husband? You two have such a good relationship. You still come to the movies after getting married?"
Gu Zhinian casually said, "I have children at home, so I can't leave normally. Today, someone happens to be looking after the children, so we came out to play."
The girl was stunned again, looking her up and down.
"Are you a mother?"
"right!"
The girl showed envy in her eyes and replied sourly,
"You don't look like a mother at all. You're even prettier than us unmarried girls."
Gu Zhinian smiled sweetly, "My husband raised her well."
The sweet look made the girl next to her envious and yearning. The boy the girl was waiting for also bought a ticket and came over to hand her a ticket.
"A movie ticket is twenty cents. Give me twenty cents."
The girl showed a surprised expression and angrily scolded him, "Why are you so stingy? We're on a date, and you treat me to a movie and still want to pay me 20 cents?"
The boy was also very confident, "You also said that we are dating. If we become successful in the future, I will give you this money. If not, I will have wasted my money!"
"You..." The girl was furious. Everyone around them was pointing at them, making her feel extremely embarrassed. Her face turned red with embarrassment.
"I won't watch it anymore, go in and see for yourself!"
The girl turned and ran away, and the boy was at a loss with two movie tickets in his hand.
Gu Zhinian looked at the boy speechlessly. A man like this would never find a wife in this life, let alone the next. He deserved to be single.
Yun Muye came over with the ticket, smiled and held out his big hand to her, "Let's go."
"Here I am!" Gu Zhinian went up to him, took his hand, and interlocked their fingers.
"What movie is playing today?"
Gu Zhinian leaned over to look at the movie ticket in his hand. Yun Muye put the ticket in front of her. The two leaned together, lowered their heads and whispered.
The boy looked at the two people's backs with envy as they left. He didn't understand why other people were so sweet while watching a movie, but he was so noisy and quarrelsome. His mother was right, the girl wanted to spend his money in the name of a date.
The cinema was dark, with only a faint light on the screen. Yun Muye held her hand, walked to the back row, and found an empty seat to sit down.
There was a love movie playing on the screen. A seventeen-year-old educated youth went to the countryside and fell in love with a man from the same village. The ambiguous feelings in the movie made the young men and women watching the movie feel shy and expectant.
This kind of pure love did not arouse Gu Zhinian's emotions at all. She had seen countless movies that were bolder and more straightforward than this. After watching a movie, she was so sleepy that she yawned and hid in Yun Muye's arms, lazily half-closing her eyes.
Yun Muye looked down at her and whispered softly in her ear,
"Are you sleepy?"
"A little." Gu Zhinian found a comfortable position in his arms and continued to sleep.
"You continue watching, I'll sleep a little longer."
Yun Muye patted her gently and looked at the big screen expressionlessly. He didn't like watching this kind of love movie and thought his wife liked it. As a result, he started to feel sleepy as soon as he came in.
As Yun Muye watched, his eyelids began to twitch. He held his wife in one hand and slowly closed his eyes. The two of them slept well in the cinema until the movie ended and everyone got up to leave. Yun Muye was awakened and looked around. No one had left. He rubbed his face with his big hands and woke up Gu Zhinian in his arms.
"Zhi Nian, wake up, the movie is over."
Gu Zhinian opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.
"We're done, let's go."
Yun Muye helped her walk out. Gu Zhinian pulled his wrist and looked at his watch.
"It's almost eleven o'clock. I'm hungry. Let's go eat!"
"Okay, what do you want to eat?"
Gu Zhinian bit her lip and thought for a moment, "I want to go to a roadside stall to eat some snacks."
"good."
Everyone who went out with them had red eyes and was talking about the story in the movie. Gu Zhinian approached him and asked in a puzzled whisper,
"Aren't we watching a romantic movie? Why are everyone so sad?"
Yun Muye shook his head.
"I don't know. I haven't really watched it."
Gu Zhinian smiled and said, "So we're paying to sleep in the cinema."
Yun Muye was amused. After a nap, both of them were full of energy. They rode their bicycles to the street where various snacks were sold. As soon as they got close, the fragrance wafted over. Gu Zhinian put his arm around Yun Muye's waist and looked forward sideways.
The grandmother selling fried buns was busy in front of the big pot, and the uncle frying oil cakes next to her was also crowing loudly. Looking all the way, there were fried cakes, spicy skewers, roujiamo, and fried cakes...
Gu Zhinian swallowed her saliva. They were all her favorite foods. Yun Muye parked the car and took her over. They ordered a few skewers of spicy food first. Gu Zhinian held a string of fried tofu in her hand, which was covered with a lot of sauce. She took a bite and it was so delicious.
Yun Muye was holding a bag of fried skewers and buying a bag of fried buns at the fried bun stall. Gu Zhinian wanted to drink orange-flavored soda. They ate while walking to a small restaurant. There was a refrigerator at the door with soda on it. Gu Zhinian tugged at his sleeve.
"I want to drink it from the refrigerator, cold."
Yun Muye frowned and advised her gently, "No, it's too cold. Your period will come in a few days and you will have a stomachache."
Gu Zhinian curled his lips, looking a little unhappy, but didn't say anything. He took the constant temperature soda handed to him by Yun Muye and took a sip.
