Chapter 85 Watching a movie in the factory
The night was completely dark, and the cold wind was blowing in the courtyard.
Xu Qing and his three little ones finished their dinner on the hot Kang in the house, put away the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, then turned back to the front room, asked their younger brothers and sisters to get dressed, and then set off to watch a movie in the factory.
The three little guys were very happy about this, with excitement on their faces. They stood in front of the Kang edge, took the initiative to wrap up their scarves, held the bench and the horse, waiting for the eldest brother's order to go out of the house.
Xu Qing also wrapped a scarf around his neck at this time, took the key to the next door house, rummaged for the flashlight his parents bought when he was in school, and then left the house with the little ones.

In the courtyard outside the house, the second uncle's family also walked out of their own home, each carrying a maza in their hands.
At this time, Silly Zhu from the middle courtyard came to the backyard with a flashlight and He Yuyu, preparing to go to the factory with Xu Qing.
Similarly, Silly Zhu and He Yuyu also held benches.
Today, so many people went to the factory to watch a movie. There were only a lot of people in the courtyard. The original mats and benches in the factory were not enough, so everyone brought their own.
This was always the case, and no one found it troublesome.
When the little girl saw He Yuyu, she ran over holding the small stool in her hand, grinned and said sweetly:
"Sister Yuyu, my eldest brother will take us to a movie, will you go?"
He Yuyu touched the little girl's head, lowered his head and said: "Go, sister will go with you!"
When it comes to watching movies, young people won’t go, let alone the second uncle, who is over 40 years old, still holding a mat and wanting to see it.
It’s just that the old lady is old and has bad legs and feet, so she doesn’t want to go.
On the one hand, it was winter and it was still night, and her body couldn't bear it. On the other hand, as she got older, she liked quietness and lost interest in lively things.
Xu Qing asked the three little guys to follow the second uncle and Silly Zhu to the front yard first, while he held a flashlight and went to Xu Damao's house to help Xu Damao get the flashlight.
Xu Aiguo was not in a hurry to go with Shazhu and the others, but stood at the door of Xu Damao's house, waiting for his eldest brother Xu Qing.
After seeing his elder brother come out, he followed Xu Qing to the middle courtyard.
In the middle courtyard, Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu, Xiao Dang, the first uncle and the first aunt from the Jia family were just walking into the front yard with the second uncle and the others.
As for Bangge, he actually wanted to go, but he broke his leg while skating and couldn't follow. He could only lie on the window and complain.
The man and his family in the front yard were all out.
Although Yan Jiekuang fell and fractured his arm while sweeping snow, fortunately it was an arm and it did not affect his walking.
All of a sudden, a large group of people in the compound walked along the dark alley towards the factory, talking and laughing.
Xu Qing and Sha Zhu used flashlights to illuminate it. The second uncle, first uncle, and third uncle also brought them with them. However, these three uncles all put the flashlights under their armpits in unison.<
/p>
Of course Qin Huairu also took it, but because Jia Zhang secretly poked her and refused to let her open it, there were only two flashlights that illuminated it.
Batteries are not cheap these days. Who wouldn’t want to use them sparingly? Why use your own when you can use them against others?
Xu Qing was mainly afraid that the three little ones would fall while walking at night, so he turned on the spare flashlight.
The one he used to call frequently was lent to Ma Jiefang when he came to the courtyard last time.
These days, Xu Qing has been busy at work and has no time to go to Ma Jiefang's house to get it.
We can only wait until next time when Ma Jiefang comes to return it.
Silly Zhu doesn't care about this. It's not his character to worry about everything.
A group of people entered the factory chatting leisurely.
At this time, many people had already sat down in the factory.
Some people were eating melon seeds in twos and threes and sitting around chatting.
If you don’t have anything to eat, you will put your hands in the sleeves of your cotton-padded jacket, or put your hands into the pockets of your cotton-padded jacket or trouser pockets, chatting and waiting for the movie to start.
Xu Damao stood in front of the white curtain, holding a cigarette from the corner of his mouth, turning on the projector from time to time for debugging.
Xu Qing went over and gave the flashlight he had brought to Xu Damao.
Xu Damao turned off the projector and raised his hand to point to the empty space left in the second row:
"Qingzi, just sit over there with your brothers and sisters!"
Xu Qing thanked him and walked towards the second row with the three little guys.
Seeing this, Silly Zhu quickly called out to his sister He Yuyu and asked him to follow Xu Qing and sit in front.
Although the space left could only accommodate four people, Silly Zhu had a way and took the initiative to walk up to Xu Qing and said:
"Qingzi, let my sister sit next to you and hold the little girl in her arms."
Xu Qing didn't mind. Anyway, it was so late at night, and the little girl could be kept warm by the rain.
When the little girl heard what Sha Zhu said, she reached out and took He Yuyu's hand:
"Sister Yuyu, let's sit and watch together!"
Xu Damao caught a glimpse of it while standing in front of the projection machine, but said nothing. He and Silly Zhu always quarreled, but he and He Yuyu never got along.
If Si Zhu shamelessly sat in the second row, then Xu Damao would have something to say.
As for the first, second, and third uncles, as well as Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu, and Xiao Dang, they could only sit in the back.
Soon, the factory was filled with people who came to watch the movie. There were hundreds of people in a large area, and it was as far as the eye could see.
The cadres from the first platoon also came.
When Xu Damao saw that almost all the people had arrived, mainly the cadres, he immediately started showing the movie.
As the movie started, the people who were noisy just now suddenly became silent.
Everyone is staring at the screen attentively.
........
The security department in the factory is having a relatively hard time today.
It was late at night, and there were so many people. As the section chief, Ma Guohua couldn't sit down and watch a movie. He was standing around with everyone in the security section to maintain order.
Ma Jiefang, his fifth sister and his mother are also sitting in the middle of the crowd at this moment.
However, there were too many people, and Ma Jiefang couldn't find Xu Qing for a while, and it was even harder to find him this late at night.
Ma Jinghong stretched out her hand to pinch Ma Jiefang and whispered:
"Didn't you say that Xu Qing will definitely come, where is the person?"
Ma Jiefang looked in pain. The fifth sister Ma Jinghong pinched him just now. Even though he was separated by a cotton-padded jacket, his arm still hurt.
Ma Jiefang lowered his head and whispered: "Fifth sister, there are so many people, how can I find them? I haven't returned the flashlight yet."
"Then why don't you go out and look for it?" Ma Jinghong pushed Ma Jiefang, "Didn't our dad ask you to come to the factory next year and train with him? Isn't today an opportunity?"
Ma Jiefang had a sad face. He bent down helplessly, squeezed through the crowd, and walked out. At the same time, he felt very aggrieved. He felt that his fifth sister treated his biological brother like this just to say a few words to Xu Qing.
If I get married in the future, wouldn’t it be...
