Although all the movie tickets at Duge Township Cinema were sold out on the first day of the Lunar New Year, many people who bought the tickets did not watch the movie.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Hu Mingchen, Hu Mingyi and Tong Bailiang resumed normal business operations of the cinema.

When the loudspeaker of the cinema sounded, although the unpleasant incident happened on the first day of the new year, it still could not stop the enthusiasm of the local people during the New Year. Soon many people gathered in front of the Duge Township Cinema.

In order to avoid learning from the past, Hu Mingchen approached Qin Hu and asked him to find two auxiliary police officers to help here and maintain order. Qin Hu was very considerate and actually arranged for two people to come over.

To arrange the police force, you have to say hello to the director. When Qin Hu vaguely mentioned the matter to Song Qiaoshan, Song Qiaoshan not only agreed, but also praised Qin Hu, saying that he knew how to do the work ahead and was a comrade with ideas.

.

Qin Hu was left wondering, how could something special turn into a good thing when he met Hu Mingchen?

Although there were still a lot of people on this day, the order was much better than on New Year's Day. On the one hand, there were two uniformed police officers present, which had a little bit of a deterrent effect. On the other hand, on New Year's Day,

The tragedy still sounded the alarm for many people.

There were still a lot of people buying tickets to watch the movie, but Hu Mingchen told Tong Bailiang that only 180 tickets were sold for each show, and 20 tickets had to be left empty.

Does Hu Mingchen want to reward people and show it to some people he knows?

Of course not, those empty seats were reserved by Hu Mingchen for ordinary people who bought tickets on New Year's Day but didn't show up. Since people have spent money, no matter what happens, they can't let their money go to waste.

Sure enough, there were people who came to watch every movie with movie tickets for the first day of the new year. For these people, Hu Mingchen and Hu Mingyi all let them go.

The method adopted by Hu Mingchen has received unanimous praise. Even if some people lost their movie tickets, they were not stopped. This allowed the reputation of Duge Township Cinema to be restored as quickly as possible.

From the Spring Festival to the 15th day of the Lunar New Year, the movies played in the Duge Township Cinema every day were almost full. During the entire New Year period, the Duge Township Cinema not only became the most talked-about place for the people of Duge Township, but also attracted the attention of people in surrounding towns and villages.

In their minds, this place has also become a fashionable place. Many people take motorcycles or even walk two hours to experience the excitement of the movie during the Chinese New Year.

If the business is good, the income will naturally be high. In just over ten days, Duge Township Cinema sold a total of more than 20,000 yuan in tickets.

At this time, Hu Jianqiang and Hu Jianjun's injuries were basically healed, at least outwardly, they were back to more than 80% of their previous appearance.

On the fifteenth day, after the last movie was shown, two adults, Hu Mingchen, Hu Mingyi, and Tong Bailiang, went home with flashlights. Although the work was not physical work, it was still very hard to receive so many people in one day, just talking.

It can make your mouth dry.

During the entire Chinese New Year period, for ordinary people, there are two most important meals. One is the New Year's Eve dinner, and the other is the dinner on the Lantern Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which represents the end of the New Year.

It's just that Hu Mingchen and the three of them were busy working at the movie theater on the street, and it was impossible to sit down at the table and have a good meal. For lunch, they had lunch boxes sent by Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao.

Regarding their hard work, especially Hu Mingyi and Tong Bailiang, Hu Mingchen's family did not forget them with peace of mind. When they returned home in the evening, Jiang Yucai had prepared a table of meals waiting for them, and the family did not eat in advance.

When they arrived at Hu Mingchen's house, Tong Bailiang and Hu Mingyi wanted to go home separately, but it was Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai who persuaded them to stay alive, so they were allowed to stay.

"Actually, you don't need to wait at all. It's already 10:40. Xiaochen invited us to eat on the street. We're not hungry at all." Tong Bailiang sat down on a chair and said.

"I think so. Every one of our families has prepared meals today. Even if you are hungry, you can just go back and eat. There is no need to go to such trouble." Hu Mingyi, who sat down next to Tong Bailiang, followed.

Since their attitude was to help in vain, in addition to eating the lunch sent by Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao at noon, they also avoided eating at Hu Jianjun's house in the evening. Even if they were thirsty on the street, they would even

Most of the time, I would drink the tea I brought in the morning and refuse the drinks provided by Hu Mingchen.

"Normally, we don't dare to force you to stay when you go back, but today is the Lantern Festival. If you are so busy and come back so late, you can just make do with it here. Why bother them when you go back? Letting you have a meal is also a way to express your gratitude.

With our thanks, come on, let's serve it to the table. There's no special preparation, it's just an ordinary dish." Hu Jianjun said.

Although there is no special preparation, this meal still includes a chicken, and there are also drinks. It is basically the same as the New Year’s Eve dinner on New Year’s Eve. The difference is that this meal is eaten later and is ordered.

Performed with candles.

"This is already a table full of food. In fact, there is no need to say thank you or not. We are all from the same family. We live close to each other. It's okay to help each other." Tong Bailiang said politely.

"Second uncle, that's what I say, but how many people can be truly selfless? Our family will never forget your kindness and kindness." Hu Mingchen picked up the wine bottle and gave it to Tong Bailiang and Hu Mingyi.

He poured a glass of wine and put it in front of him, and then poured another glass for his third uncle Hu Jianqiang who had not yet arrived.

Hu Yujiao had already called Hu Jianqiang with a flashlight. Although he had already eaten dinner, Hu Jianjun did not forget him and sent Hu Yujiao to ask him to come and sit with him.

As soon as the wine was poured, Hu Jianqiang came.

"Second brother and Mingyi are back. We had a hard day today." Hu Jianqiang greeted him first as soon as he entered the room.

"It's nothing hard, Third Uncle. It seems that you are recovering well. Come on, sit down and have a drink. It's okay." Hu Mingchen moved his position and gave up an empty seat to Hu Jianqiang.

"It's no problem if you can sit down without having to move a glass of wine. In fact, I've been fine for a long time. If my family hadn't stopped me, I would have gone to help you a week ago." Hu Jianqiang pulled a bench and sat down next to Hu Mingyi.

What Hu Jianqiang meant by being blocked at home was Zhong Ying. Zhong Ying kept asking him to get well before he could go out.

Zhong Ying didn't think it was embarrassing for Hu Jianqiang to go out with a bruised face. He just felt that since there were two people willing to help for free, there was no need for him to join in the fun.

Hu Jianqiang made this statement clear, a bit like he wanted to relieve his suspicion.

"It's good to get some more rest. I'll start school in two days. If you're here, it's just in time to catch up." Tong Bailiang said.

"Come, come, come, let's have a drink first, and then chat while we eat." Hu Jianjun sat down at the top of the table, raised his glass and invited him.

Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao did not put the meal on the table today. Instead, they each made a bowl of chicken soup, picked up some vegetables and ate by themselves.

In local rural areas, children and women are generally not allowed to sit on the table when outsiders are around, especially girls. This is not a rule, it is just a custom.

Usually this kind of rule is not implemented in Hu Mingchen's family. Hu Yujiao and Hu Yandie can go to the table, but they can't pick up food randomly, especially they can't stretch their chopsticks to the other side of the table to pick up food. They can only eat the few in front of them.

You can't just flip the plate or the food in the bowl. To a certain extent, this is due to the patriarchal mentality.

But today they were going to drink. Jiang Yucai greeted Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao first, so that Hu Mingchen could sit at the same table as Hu Jianjun and the others.

At the dinner table, Hu Jianjun toasted first, and then Hu Jianqiang followed suit, all saying words of thanks. Naturally, Tong Bailiang and Hu Mingyi were always humble and polite.

Hu Mingchen accompanied him with a glass of drink.

Maybe they felt it was strange that the two of them hadn't gone home yet when the time was almost up. After a while, Li Xiumei took her son Tong Zhiwei, and Long Cui'e took Hu Xiaomin to find Hu Mingchen's house.

Jiang Yucai and Hu Jianjun persuaded them to have a meal, but of course they declined as they had already had dinner. Accompanied by Jiang Yucai, they sat and chatted by themselves while listening to Hu Jianjun and the others talking at the wine table.

Relatives and friends do not visit each other on New Year's Eve, but there is no such taboo during the Lantern Festival. On the contrary, some people with good relationships will visit each other after dinner to sit down and talk, talk about New Year's plans, etc.

"Actually, to be honest, the two of us are not as important as Xiaochen. Although he is young, he has great ideas, and he is basically the one who controls the machine that plays the movie. The two of us just use our hands. I

After teaching in primary schools for so many years, I have never seen a child who is as sensible as Xiaochen and knows as much knowledge." Tong Bailiang put down his wine glass, took a cigarette from Hu Jianjun, lit it, pointed at Hu Mingchen and sighed.

"I didn't think much of it before, but after doing this every day for the past ten years, I also feel that Xiaochen is really not simple. You see, my Hu Dehua is two years older than him, but when it comes to doing things, he is far worse than Xiaochen.

Already." Hu Mingyi pointed at Hu Dehua, who was holding a glass of drink behind him and drinking.

Hu Dehua refused to eat when he was asked to eat, but when he saw Hu Mingchen drinking a drink, he still wanted to drink, so Hu Mingchen poured a few cups and distributed them to several children.

Hu Mingchen said to himself that the other dolls you met were not reborn. If they were like him, they would not say that.

It's just that it was impossible for Hu Mingchen to say such words, he could only say a few words shyly and modestly.

"I also know that if it weren't for the support of you two adults, he wouldn't be able to do anything even if he wanted to do it. Anyway, I really want to thank you for this time. After today, Jianqiang and I

I can pick you up now. Bai Liang has to go to work, Mingyi also has things to do, and Xiaochen is about to start school." Hu Jianjun said a little embarrassed later.

Now I want to ask someone to leave, but of course it’s hard to say anything.
