Chapter 59 I bought the melon seeds for free



When Song Wei Zheng returned home in the evening, Song Rulan heard the sound, put on her coat and walked out of the house.

Song Rulan: "Why are you so late today? The food is warm in the pot for you, just help yourself and eat some."

Song Weizheng poured himself a bowl of water, drank a few sips, and then said, "There was a lot of stuff, so I had to run a few more times to get it all out."

Song Rulan couldn't help showing a bit of worry on her face: "Shouldn't you be more low-key recently? Why are you doing more and more? Have you heard about the incident with Suishun's cousin? She was caught doing private transactions, but luckily she was released in the end without any harm. She didn't succeed, but you are different. What if..."

Song Weizheng: "It's okay, don't worry. If there is any risk, I will be the first to withdraw."

He turned and went into the kitchen, took the food out of the pot, and ate it hastily with his head buried.

Song Rulan continued to persuade him, "As long as we have enough money, it's fine. We can't rely on this to become rich and powerful."

Song Wei Zheng took the time to say while eating: "I know what's going on."

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, Song Rulan sighed and changed the subject, "Shunshun waited for you for a while last night. I told her that you would be back after dinner. Who knew you would be so late today?"

Song Weizheng paused, raised his eyes, and asked, "She was waiting for me? Did she say what it was?"

Song Rulan: "You are always out and about, and you don't know what's going on in the village. Today, someone said that they are going to show a movie in our village in a few days, and Sunsun came to ask if you want to go."

Song Weizheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Play a movie?"

Song Rulan continued, "Yes, Xiaoxue wants to go too. You took her to see the movie last year and she couldn't forget it. Today she came back and talked to me about the movie for a long time. I thought that since I've been feeling much better recently, I could go with you."

Song Weizheng had no objection to this: "Okay, I'll go with you guys then."

Song Rulan smiled when she heard this: "I'll take care of Xiaoxue, and you can be with Shunshun. People always say that watching a movie is the best time to develop a relationship."

Song Weizheng shook his head and smiled: "You'll know when you actually go and see it. There are so many people huddled together, how can there be any kind of relationship?"

On the day of the movie showing, Jiang Suinsui got home from work, washed her face and changed her clothes. She heard people outside calling for friends to go watch a movie, and she couldn't help but rush out.

"Sui Sui! You forgot to bring a bench!" Grandma Jiang picked up a bench and chased after her, calling her.

Jiang Suisui quickly turned around to take the small stool and asked, "Grandma, you really aren't going?"

Grandma Jiang smiled and said, "No, I'm too old to move. Your grandpa and I watched this movie a few times a few years ago. You can go and tell me what's in it when you come back."

Jiang Suisui: "Okay! Grandma, I promise I can remember the plot clearly and can perform it again for you later."

"Okay, okay, I think my Suisui might be a good movie star in the future." Grandma Jiang pushed her with a smile, "Hurry up, aren't you afraid you won't be able to catch up?"

"I can make it in time, but people say we should go early to grab a good seat." Jiang Suishun ran out and turned back to shout, "Grandma, I'm leaving now. You should go to bed early and don't have to wait for me!"

Grandma Jiang: "Come back after you finish watching, you hear me? Don't play outside after dark! If you don't know the way, just follow someone else!"

Jiang Suinsui ran in a hurry and left Grandma Jiang's instructions behind.

When she passed by Song Weizheng's house, she stopped, knocked on the door and called out, "Auntie Lan, Xiaoxue! Are you guys gone?"

A hurried footstep was heard, the gate opened, and Song Rulan walked out holding Song Yuxue's hand. She locked the door and said, "Just about to leave, let's go together."

Jiang Suisui couldn't help but get anxious: "Auntie Lan, let me go grab a seat first. I'll also reserve a seat for you guys, and you guys just walk slowly behind me."

Song Rulan couldn't help but chuckle and shook her head, "Don't worry, A Zheng has already gone."

"Ah?" Jiang Suenshun was surprised, "I thought he would come later. He didn't go out today?"

Song Rulan: "We agreed to go to the movies, so he didn't go out today. He finished his work in the field and went to reserve a seat."

Song Yuxue held one child at a time and said happily, "Brother will go and grab it, and Sister Sunshun, come with us and walk slowly."

Jiang Suisui smiled and said, "Okay, let your brother take the lead, and we will comfortably enjoy the fruits of victory in the back."

The sundeck is some distance away from the villagers’ homes. One needs to cross a long field before reaching an empty flat area. It was used to dry rice during the harvest season, but now it is used for screenings.

When Jiang Suisui and the other two walked over slowly, chatting and laughing, it was still early in the day. It had just gotten dark and was still a little white. The projection team was not ready yet, but the show venue was already full of people, and there was even a lot of noise.

Song Yuxue was short and couldn't see the end of the girl. She anxiously looked around and asked, "Where is my brother?"

Jiang Suinsui stood on tiptoe and looked over the crowd. Somehow, she saw Song Weizheng sitting upright in the middle of the first row.

He was seen sitting alone, across a long bench, with an imposing manner. From time to time, people passed by and looked at the seat beside him covetously, but because of his imposing manner, they left with hesitation and were hesitant to speak.

Jiang Suisui pointed and said, "Good job, your brother is in the front. Let's go around and look for him!"

Jiang Suisui pulled Song Yuxue and jogged in front. Song Rulan looked at the two of them with a smile and followed them.

Song Weizheng sat on the bench with a frown on his face. He could hear the constant noise of voices, some loud and some sharp. From time to time, someone would come to ask if he could give up his seat, but they would be scared away by his eyes.

It had been a long time since Song Wei Zheng had sat in a crowd for so long. Last year, when he took Song Yuxue to see a movie, he just stood at the back of the crowd and let Song Yuxue sit on his shoulders to watch.

At this moment, his line of sight was suddenly blocked by someone again. He looked up with a frown on his face, and then his frown suddenly relaxed. His attitude was so gentle that it was completely different from before. He moved to the edge and made room for someone else: "Are you all here? Sit down."

Jiang Suinsui was just about to push Song Yuxue over to sit down, but Song Yuxue snatched the small stool from her hands first and said obediently, "I can just sit on the small stool in the front, it won't take up any space, Sister Suinsui, you sit next to your brother, and mommy sits next to Sister Suinsui."

Jiang Suisui was stunned, but then couldn't help laughing: "Good fellow, you have already arranged the seats?"

Song Rulan smiled and sat down first, leaving the seat next to Song Weizheng vacant, and then pulled Song Yuxue in front of her: "Xiaoxue, you can sit on the small stool or lean on me, it's all fine, Suishun, you sit in the middle."

Jiang Suisui looked at the middle seat and suddenly felt a little dazed. She suddenly had the middle seat in the front row? How many people would be jealous of her!

Song Weizheng: "Please sit down. The movie is about to start."

Since the people who have taken up seats have spoken, she won’t be polite either, hehe.

Jiang Suinsui sat down happily, then turned her head to look at Song Weizheng and whispered, "Thank you!"

Song Weizheng smiled slightly: "You're welcome."

After sitting for a while, the projection team finally arrived and started to fiddle with the machine, preparing to show the movie. The crowd became more and more lively, as if it was a big gathering.

Jiang Suinsui turned her head curiously and looked left and right. Everything was new to her.

Song Weizheng noticed that her eyes were darting around, thought for a moment, and whispered in her ear, "Sit still, I'll be gone for a while."

"Hmm? Okay!" Jiang Suinsui responded with a blink, then watched him stand up and leave lightly, turning around and walking back, disappearing into the crowd.

The sky gets dark very quickly in April. It was completely dark now, with a hazy night atmosphere. The projector started to run, the screen lit up, the showroom was lit up again, and the crowd began to get restless.

Jiang Suisui quickly turned around and sat down, ready to watch the movie that was about to begin.

When the projector started playing, images began to appear on the screen, and the sound rang out, the crowd suddenly became quiet for a moment, and then began to rustle up and down with a restrained excitement, which made Jiang Suisui particularly look forward to it.

When she was staring at the curtain in front of her with great interest, she suddenly felt something sinking beside her. Jiang Sunshun turned her head and saw that Song Weizheng had sat back down.

Jiang Suishun asked in a low voice: "Where have you been?"

Song Weizheng didn't answer, but raised his hand and handed the thing in his hand to Jiang Suisui: "Take it."

"?" Jiang Suishun took it with a bewildered look on her face and found that it was old newspaper rolled into a cone shape, and inside it was...

"Pumpkin seeds?!" Jiang Suisui asked happily, "Where did you get them?"

Song Weizheng handed the remaining packages to Song Rulan and Song Yuxue, and said, "I bought it later."

Jiang Suinsui quickly turned her head to look back, but it was too dark and the heads of people behind her were moving, so she couldn't see clearly. However, she could see people coming and going from time to time.

Jiang Suisui picked up the roll of melon seeds and looked at it curiously: "I didn't notice it when I came here, but there are actually things for sale."

Song Yuxue turned her head and said, "Sister Suishun, peanuts and sunflower seeds are sold every time a movie is shown. My brother didn't buy any for me last time, so he bought them this time because you came."

Song Wei Zheng reached out and pushed her head straight, saying, "Watch your movie and don't talk."

Jiang Suinsui smiled secretly, then said seriously: "How much? I'll pay you back later."

"..." Song Weizheng lowered his voice, seeming a little helpless, "I bought it, it's free, continue watching the movie and don't say anything."

Jiang Suinsui was cracking melon seeds while grinning, and suddenly felt that the melon seeds in her hand were more fragrant than those fried during the Chinese New Year.

The movie was slowly playing on the screen. Although the picture was crude and simple, Jiang Sui Sui was inexplicably immersed in it and watched it with great concentration. She even forgot to crack melon seeds at the end. Every time the crowd behind her cheered along with the plot, she was also excited.

After the movie ended, Jiang Suinsui was still immersed in the plot and excitedly discussed it with Song Wei Zheng. Song Wei Zheng had a smile on his face and looked at her tenderly in the night.
