Chapter 80: A Pleasant Weekend

When Li Manman rode to the door of Xinhua Bookstore, everyone was basically there, and when he saw Li Manman coming, Cai Yuanyuan waited for Li Manman to park the car, and said: "Manman, you are late!" I've been waiting for a long time! ā€

"No? Didn't you say half past nine? You see, it's only 9:25! Li Manman stretched out his wrist with the watch in front of Cai Yuanyuan and said with the pointer. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"You listen to her, she's not as early as me!" Zhang Zhicheng stabbed the knife.

"You're all here so early!" Li Manman glanced at these new friends strangely, a little strange.

"Isn't it the first time I've come out to play, I'm a little excited!" Gao Jun explained.

"Let's go, let's go buy books first, there is a new film in the county theater today, after buying books, let's go watch a movie, how about it?" Shao Yunyang asked everyone as he walked towards the door of the bookstore.

"What movie?" Li Manman asked curiously, she was very curious about the movies shown in the county cinema in this era, she had never seen it before, and the first time she watched a movie in the cinema was a sophomore in high school, it seemed to be "The First Blood", and then she watched "Mission Impossible".

"It's an American film, I heard my brother say that this is the first time I've shown it, it seems to be called "The Godfather"!" Shao Yunyang replied.

Wow, since I can see such a blockbuster in this small county town in this era, it's really lucky! My Al. Pacino, my Malone. Brando! Li Manman cheered in his heart, since returning to this era, Li Manman hasn't seen these classic blockbusters for a long time!

"Is it a foreign film?" Cai Yuanyuan said with a disgusted tone that children in this era have an instinctive dislike for foreign films, Li Manman didn't like to watch those translated films when he was a child, and felt that foreigners all looked the same, couldn't tell who was who, and spoke strangely.

"I love films like "Shaolin Temple"!" Zhang Zhicheng said, "Jueyuan is so powerful! ā€

"It's flawless and beautiful!" Cai Yuanyuan took the words, with a look of a fan girl on her face.

"I've heard of this film, and it seems to have won an Oscar!" Li Manman felt that if he didn't speak, he wouldn't be able to watch this film if it didn't work well.

"What's Oscar?" Zhang Zhicheng asked curiously.

"The Oscar is the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Awards, referred to as the Academy Awards, which is equivalent to the Hundred Flowers Award and the Golden Rooster Award for Chinese films!" Zhou Fan explained.

Li Manman glanced at this boy who had always been silent in surprise, he didn't expect him to be so clear about this question, anyway, Li Manman only knew Oscar, but he didn't know what its full name was!

"Wow, it's so high-end, let's go check it out!" Cai Yuanyuan hurriedly said.

A few people entered the bookstore, and Li Manman bought a copy of "Selected Mathematics Learning Problems" and a copy of "Refinement of Physics Basics", and then transferred to the shelves of other books to linger, wanting to find some books of interest to read.

"Manman, what books did you buy?" Cai Yuanyuan took three reference books, saw a stack of seven or eight books in front of Li Manman, asked curiously, lowered her head and looked carefully at the spine of the book in Li Manman's hand, "Montaigne Essays", "The Castle", "The Pursuit of Excellence", "Aesthetic Walk", "Blue Bloods", "Selected Mathematics Problems" and "Refinement of Physics Basics". Manman, how did you buy these books, can you read them? ā€

"It's alright!" Li Manman smiled and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to go to the checkout!" Oh, by the way, Yuanyuan, I want to order some periodicals in the bookstore, are you interested? ā€

"What journal?" Cai Yuanyuan looked at the large stack of books that Li Manman was holding, and felt a little unmotivated, and felt a little inferior.

"Reader", "Youth Digest", "Overseas Digest", "English Pictorial", "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry for Middle School Students" and so on." Li Manman explained, "If you want to order, we can partner a few times, and one person can order one, and exchange it, how about it?" ā€

"Okay, wait for a few of them to come over, let's discuss!" Cai Yuanyuan nodded.

"Now, then, let's go and see the postage codes of those books!" Li Manman took Cai Yuanyuan to the place where the magazine was ordered.

As a result, the six of them subscribed to seven or eight magazines, Li Manman subscribed to "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry for Junior High School Students" and "Reader's Digest", Cai Yuanyuan subscribed to "Youth Digest", Shao Yunyang subscribed to "English Weekly" and "World Military", Zhang Zhicheng subscribed to "Liaoning Youth", Zhou Fan subscribed to "Film Pictorial", and Gao Jun was a good boy, and he ordered "Excellent Essays for Middle School Students".

I took the book out of the bookstore, put it in the front basket of the bicycle, locked it up, and headed for the cinema. It's not far from the bookstore to the cinema, in fact, it's not far from anywhere in this small county, after all, it's that big.

I bought a ticket and entered the theater, there is no problem of clearing the movie theater in the county, basically a film is put on for a day, and it is screened in a loop, as long as you have time, you can spend a whole day in this dark movie theater.

When a few people entered, there was a fierce shootout on the movie, ping pong, and there was a chaotic noise. Pacino held a gun like a killing god, handsome! Li Manman immediately entered the state.

Coming out of the movie theater, it was already a little faster, Li Manman was hungry, eager to find something to eliminate the bursts of empty city singing. Several boys were quite emotional, discussing the plot with great interest, and they had no awareness of going to dinner at all.

"Where to eat? Aren't you hungry? Li Manman shook the bell of the bicycle and asked.

"I'm starving! Have you figured it out? Cai Yuanyuan rubbed her stomach and said to a few boys.

"Huh? It's noon, huh? Shao Yunyang looked at the sky, the sun was already slightly west, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and the people in the shops looked leisurely, and the air was warm and drowsy.

"It's all a little bit! It's still noon? It's long gone! Cai Yuanyuan said angrily.

"Let's go eat the beef noodles from the Dongcai Market!" Shao Yunyang thought for a moment and suggested.

"Yes, yes! I'm asking him to put more chili peppers! Zhang Zhicheng pursed his lips and exclaimed.

"Gao Jun, Zhou Fan, what do you see?" Shao Yunyang asked.

"I don't care, I can eat anything!" Zhou Fan said with a smile.

"Me too, not everyone is like Ah Cheng!" Gao Jun quipped.

"What do you like to eat? Confucius once said, 'Eat color, sex also!' ’。 Zhang Zhicheng said disapprehantly.

"Let's go! I'm almost hungry! Li Manman got on his bicycle and ran forward.

A team of people rushed to Dongcai Market, because it is not the peak season, so it is usually overcrowded, and it takes a long time to have a place in the beef noodle restaurant, and now there are many vacant seats. Six people occupied two tables, and each asked for a large bowl of beef noodles and a pancake. His family not only makes good noodles, but also baked cakes, this baked cake is the size of a medium-sized stainless steel basin, not like the thin layer in later generations, but has four layers, the outside is the front and back two layers of baked yellow fragrant skin, the middle is two layers of stuffing with meat puree and green onions, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the more you chew, the more fragrant.

Probably hungry, a few people didn't speak, buried their heads in eating for a while, Li Manman ate half a bowl of noodles, half a piece of cake, only then did he feel that there was something in his stomach, breathed a sigh of relief, and began to chew slowly to taste this century-old food.

"Good boys, these kids can eat this!" The old lady who had been sitting next to her and pulling with the boss looked at Li Manman and the others for a long time, and sighed when she saw that they had almost solved a big bowl of noodles and a piece of bread.

"Isn't it as the saying goes: Half the size eats the old man!" The boss took over and said.

"No! My grandson is too, just like he can't get enough to eat, and he just wants to touch something and put it in his mouth! The old lady remembered her hungry wolf-like grandson, and looked at the boss again, "How is your eldest son?" Promised? ā€

"Don't tell me about that dead child, stubborn like a donkey, what's wrong with learning a craft from me? I have to go out and run, I have passed on the craft for several generations, how can I go to him and break the inheritance! No, I came back the day before yesterday and said I was going to Shenzhen, but I didn't agree, I quarreled, and I ran away again! "The boss hates the complaint.

Li Manman remembered that in his last life, when Huaidong City counted famous snacks, someone mentioned this Dongcai City beef noodles on the Internet, but at that time, there was no trace of this restaurant, probably the boss did not resist his son, and the craft was broken.
