Chapter 27: Leave of Absence (1/2)



Chapter 27 Leave of Absence

Arriving at the cinema, Qiao Qinglu looked at the movie posters hanging outside the courtyard and finally understood why she felt that Xiao Qinyun's smile was a little strange just now.

During this period, films from overseas and Hong Kong could not be imported, and most of them were films adapted from model operas. Well, let's see what kind of films there are.

I walked to the ticket window and saw that the movies showing in the afternoon were "Sha Jia Bang", "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy", "The Harbor", "Heroic Sons and Daughters", "Sunny Days" and "Qingsongling".

Qiao Qinglu's eyes lit up, "Let's watch 'Heroic Sons and Daughters'!"

She remembered that this movie was about the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, a classic anti-Japanese war film in China.

Xiao Qinyun didn't expect that the Tiantian Cinema would have this movie, "Okay."

He went to the ticket window and bought two tickets for the movie "Heroic Sons and Daughters". There was still half an hour before the movie started, so they could only walk around the neighborhood first.

Fortunately, there is a department store nearby, and Qiao Qinglu can withdraw money and tickets from the space at any time, and the two of them began to go shopping.

"Qinglu, the second goose yellow blouse and the fourth beige floral blouse hanging on it look nice. Do you like them?" Xiao Qinyun noticed several spring dresses with his sharp eyes.

Qiao Qinglu looked at the two skirts and found them to be elegant in style and bright in color. They were indeed nice.

She nodded. "All reactionaries are paper tigers. 䀲志, could you please take off these two braids so I can compare their sizes?"

Nowadays, you can’t even try on clothes when you buy them in shopping malls, and some sales clerks will even give you a cold shoulder. Anyway, the goods in shopping malls are always selling well.

The round-faced salesperson had a nice attitude and quickly took down the two skirts and handed them to Qiao Qinglu.

Qiao Qinglu compared them briefly. The light yellow skirt was an inch below the knee, with eight-length sleeves and a slightly loose waist. It was made of pure cotton and looked pretty good. The other beige floral skirt was about the same length, with nine-length sleeves and also a slightly loose waist. It was made of Dacron.

As soon as she finished comparing, Xiao Qinyun had the salesperson issue the ticket. It turned out that she only wanted to buy a skirt. After all, spring in Yanjing is short and a skirt can only be worn for a few days. However, Xiao Qinyun was impatient and did not play by the rules.

She took out the money and ticket and handed them to the salesperson, but was stopped by Xiao Qinyun.

He took the ticket from her hand and pushed her hand holding the money away. "I'll pay for Bragi. I wanted to buy it for you a few days ago. I just happened to see you today. Don't try to snatch it from me!"

Okay, it’s natural for men to spend money on women, but we can’t discourage their enthusiasm.

Qiao Qinglu happily accepted the money, and Xiao Qinyun walked side by side with her, carrying the paper bag containing the silk.

The two of them bought some soda and then left the mall.

While no one was paying attention, Qiao Qinglu took the skirt and put it into the space.

It was almost time, so the two returned to the cinema, checked their tickets and entered.

The seats for two are in the middle of row 12. This position is the best for watching movies, but it is inconvenient to get in and out.

Fortunately, there were not many people watching the movie. Besides the two of them, there were only two pairs of young men and women in the row of spectators.

The movie started. It was a black film. The first scene emphasized time. If we waited until 5 p.m. that day, victory on the entire battlefield would be guaranteed.

The battle was in full swing, and the most classic scene of the film was about to come - on the battlefield filled with gunpowder, Wang Cheng risked his life to defend the position, jumped out of the enemy's encirclement with a blasting tube in hand, and he shouted through the walkie-talkie: "For victory, fire at me..."

Like other audience members, Qiao Qinglu shed tears of emotion, and bursts of suppressed crying were heard in the theater.

Later, when the song "The wind and smoke roll in singing the heroes, the green mountains on all sides listen attentively..." sounded, everyone sang along. The lyrics and music of this "Heroes Hymn" were well written, expressing everyone's voice and inspiring generations of people.

The movie ended, but Qiao Qinglu's heart could not calm down for a long time. These most lovely people used their lives to fight for us and their youth to defend our country. It was because of them that we could usher in this great era.

After calming down, the two of them rode their bikes to the textile factory compound.

Xiao Qinyun knocked on the door and it was Fu's sister who opened the door. She looked around and closed the door.

At this time, Qiao Zhenguo and Fu Xialing were offering tea to Fu's parents and Qiao's father and mother respectively. After the offering, Fu's parents gave red envelopes to Qiao Ge, and Qiao's father and mother gave red envelopes to Fu Xialing.

Qiao Qinglu was a little puzzled as to why tea was not offered to both sets of parents during the wedding ceremony at noon, but was served behind closed doors at this time.

Xiao Qinyun gently squeezed her palm and whispered in her ear, "The custom of offering tea and giving red envelopes is so frustrating, I'm afraid someone might tell others about it..."

Well, it’s easy to forget the uniqueness of this generation, so we still need to pay more attention to it.

The ceremony was over, and after chatting for a while it was almost time for the workers to get off work, so the group walked towards the cafeteria.
