Song Tang didn't want to see his pair of beautiful but useless hands at all.
She glared at him in embarrassment and quickly got out of the car.
Lu Jinyan didn't get out of the car immediately.
He took the coat beside him and covered himself with it, then sat in the car for a few more minutes before getting out uncomfortably.
The cinema was very lively.
At that time, there was no reform and opening up yet.
But there were small vendors selling things in the ticket hall.
It was the first time that Song Tang saw a movie theater in the 1970s, and everything he saw seemed new and interesting to him.
Lu Jinyan was not idle either.
He bought almost everything on the stall.
It was the first time for him to invite a little girl to the movies, and he wasn't quite sure what to prepare.
But he thought that since there were people selling things outside the cinema, he should just buy something.
When he walked back to Song Tang, Song Tang was stunned when he saw the large and small bags in his arms!
Why did he buy so many things?
Is he here to watch a movie or to eat?
Many people like to eat melon seeds while watching movies.
The most popular item sold by the vendors here is melon seeds.
Basically, you can roll up the newspaper into a point and pour the melon seeds inside.
The kind that costs one cent each.
There are also more expensive ones, wrapped in oil paper, and cost 30 cents each.
Lu Jinyan doesn't choose the right one, he only chooses the expensive one.
What he bought was the kind that cost 30 cents a piece.
In the 1970s, there were people selling popcorn outside cinemas.
However, the popcorn sold in this era was not the super sweet kind sold in movie theaters in later generations. Instead, it was made from rice or corn with sugar added. It was fragrant, crispy, and not overly sweet.
Lu Jinyan bought a bag of each kind of popcorn.
He also bought various snacks and sodas.
It was the first time that Song Tang had seen this kind of red shrimp crisps. They tasted particularly crispy and fragrant. She couldn't help but eat a piece before entering the cinema.
What surprised Song Tang the most was that he actually bought a bag of Tang Monk's meat.
In his previous life, Song Tang once heard his father say that his favorite food when he was a child was Tang Monk’s meat.
A small bag costs one cent, it is fragrant and sweet, and contains real meat. It is very delicious.
When she went back to her hometown in the countryside as a child, she also went to the convenience store in the village primary school and spent two cents to buy a bag of Tang Monk's meat.
But at that time, Tang Seng's meat was no longer real meat, but was replaced by soy products with various spices added.
She didn't expect that after traveling into this period novel, she would be able to eat the meat of Monk Tang, her father's favorite when he was a child.
The meat that Lu Jinyan bought was also the kind wrapped in oil paper.
Fifty cents a bag.
There are a lot of meat chunks in it, and the portion is quite large. It feels heavy in your hand and you feel very satisfied when you take a bite.
Feng Yingying also came to watch a movie tonight with her boyfriend, Ke Jue.
Song Tang and Lu Jinyan were both very outstanding in appearance, and even though they were quite far away, she could still spot them at a glance.
There's a romance film showing in the cinema tonight.
Most of the people who came to watch the movie were young couples.
In this era of material scarcity, for people who came to the movies, being able to buy a packet of melon seeds for ten cents was already a luxury.
Lu Jinyan was holding so many things in his hands, it would be strange if he wasn't conspicuous.
Ke Jue's family is well off.
Feng Yingying doesn't want to be outdone by Song Tang, so she wants Ke Jue to buy more things for her!
She hooked her fingers around his and said coquettishly, "Ke Jue, can we buy some melon seeds and eat them inside?"
Ke Jue's face darkened.
His family has some background and some money.
But he was idle and had no proper job. He had no income and spent all the money given by his parents.
His parents give him 30 yuan pocket money a month, which is almost equivalent to an average person's monthly salary, so he is quite well off.
However, he lost a lot of money playing cards a few days ago and owed several hundred yuan in foreign debt.
After Feng Yingying started dating him, they would go to state-owned restaurants for meals.
After dinner, I have to go to the state-owned supermarket to buy things.
Every now and then, I have to buy clothes, bags and watch movies.
He couldn't pay back the money now and was worried sick. He couldn't even bear to buy her popsicles at two cents each, so how could he have the money to buy her melon seeds?
"Ah!! Ke Jue, I want to eat more!"
"Their red shrimp cakes are delicious, and the Tang Monk meat smells delicious... Can we buy some red shrimp cakes and Tang Monk meat?"
"Eat, eat, eat! All you do all day is eat!"
Seeing that Feng Yingying wanted more and more things, Ke Jue completely lost his patience.
He originally wanted to just abandon Feng Yingying and leave.
But thinking about the movie ticket in his hand, which he bought with ten cents, he felt bad about throwing it away, so he shook off her hand and angrily went into the cinema first.
Feng Yingying's eyes were red.
She also hated Song Tang very much.
Why is Lu Jinyan so generous to Song Tang, but her boyfriend is reluctant to buy her even a dime worth of melon seeds?
This is not fair!
She was now filled with anger and had no place to vent it, but she was very proud and it would be too embarrassing to quarrel with Ke Jue in public.
She kicked the wall hard and still entered the cinema.
Song Tang, a good-for-nothing bumpkin, doesn't deserve a partner as outstanding as Lu Jinyan.
She will let Lu Jinyan kick Song Tang tonight!
