It was raining at the open-air movie, and the rice flower held up a romantic umbrella for me
One of the most enjoyable things after educated youth go to the countryside is the ** movie. When there is a movie in the evening, the atmosphere of the whole village comes alive. After a tiring day, everyone couldn't wait to finish dinner, and then hurriedly moved the stools and competed for a good spot.
I was assigned to join the queue in Luojia Village, and the screen of the movie was hung on the wall of Luohegen's house. Luo Hegen's daughter Mihua, 18 years old, often has matchmakers come to the door to propose. She was a year older than me, so I respectfully called her my sister.
Once, when the production team was about to show a movie, Mi Hua said to me: "Xiao Tang, you don't have to move a stool tonight, my house is near, let's move an extra bench out." I politely declined her kindness, thinking that moving a bench would not be a hassle and that there was no need to trouble her.
Before the movie began, the whole village had gathered in front of the screen, and the noise continued. As soon as the movie began, the whole venue suddenly fell silent. Just as everyone was watching the movie with great interest, suddenly the power went out and people started talking noisily again.
At that time, there were frequent power outages in the countryside, but fortunately, the master who showed the movie was prepared and brought a small generator. Soon, the film continued to be screened, and the atmosphere returned to normal again.
Halfway through the movie, the sky is not beautiful, and it is drizzling. Although the master did not stop working, everyone still watched the movie in the rain.
Gradually, the rain intensified and drenched my hair. The master held up a large umbrella and tried to continue the screening, but he realized that the rain was increasing and was worried about the damage to the machine, so he said into the microphone: "Folks, the rain is a bit heavy, in order to protect the equipment, we will not let it go, let's leave." ”
After that, the rain was not very heavy. "There were loud voices against it, and everyone was reluctant to leave.
Seeing that the situation was not optimistic, the master insisted on continuing the screening. At this time, an umbrella was blocking my head, and I turned my head to see that it was Mihua standing beside me, holding an umbrella. I smiled and thanked her, but at this moment someone shouted: "Don't open an umbrella, don't open an umbrella, the people behind can't see it." ”
In order not to disturb other people's viewing, I told Mihua to put away the umbrella. She followed my advice, tugged at my sleeve with her hand, and motioned for me to step aside. I walked a few steps with her, observed the situation behind me, and confirmed that playing the umbrella would not interfere with others watching the movie, so I said, "Sister Mihua, you can open the umbrella now." ”
Mihua opened the oil-paper umbrella in her hand, I took her umbrella, and we stood together in the ** movie. Everyone was watching the movie intently, and no one seemed to notice that the two of us were sharing an umbrella.
Sitting next to Mihua, I felt a little fluctuating in my heart. Even if it's just watching the movie, I'm a little absent-minded. I glanced sideways at Rice Flower, she didn't seem to notice, her eyes were focused on the screen, I thought maybe I was too careful.
Movies always have a wonderful storyline, and there are always some romantic heroes and heroines. The movie of that night was no exception, the hero and heroine spent time together, with deep emotions and infected every audience.
I can't help but wonder how a girl like Mihua would feel when she watched a movie like thisGirl Huaichun, wouldn't she think of that?I think it's almost impossible, unless she's really a wooden person.
Eventually, I noticed that she was glancing at me out of the corner of her eye, and I pretended to watch the movie intently.
When I switched from left hand to right hand to hold the umbrella, my hanging right hand inadvertently touched her left hand, and she took my hand and then let go.
At that moment, I really felt it, but I didn't know if she did it intentionally or unintentionally. Judging by the way she quickly lets go of her hand, she must have been unintentional, an unconscious action influenced by the storyline in the movie.
When I deliberately put the back of my hand against the back of her hand, she didn't avoid it and didn't come to shake my hand again. This was somewhat disappointing to me.
The storyline in the movie reaches its climax, and the hero and heroine are facing life and death. Everyone present was immersed in the heroine's sadness, and some even wiped their tears. Mihua has also been infected by the fate of the heroine, and her eyes are shining with tears. She took a handkerchief from her pocket, wiped her eyes, and continued watching the movie.
People who shed tears when watching movies are kinder, and rice flowers are one of them. At this time, she must have compared herself to the heroine, and she must have felt very uncomfortable. I decided to shake her hand as well, pretending to be an unconscious action caused by the storyline in the movie.
There is no time to lose. I fixed my eyes on the screen, mustered up the courage, and grabbed her hand. She still had a handkerchief in her hand, and I grabbed her fist.
Originally, I wanted to grab a few more seconds, but she looked at me with her eyes, and I had to quickly let go of my hand. If I still grab her fist, it is not an unconscious act, but a conscious intention.
The rain stopped, the movie ended, and the two big words "the end of the play" appeared on the screen, everyone got up one after another, and the crowd gradually dispersed.
Sister Mihua, thank you for the umbrella. I said to Mihua with a smile.
You're welcome. She smiled too, took my umbrella and walked to her door.
In the days that followed, Rice Flower and I were still as usual, as if nothing had happened that night. However, I always feel that she likes me a little, and I like her a little, not very strongly, but vaguely.
When the production team showed the movie again, it didn't rain, and I didn't have the opportunity to hold an umbrella with Mihua again.
Before Mihua got engaged, she didn't show me any attachment expression, let alone say that she liked me. She shook my hand that night, was it purely influenced by the storyline in the movie?So why did she go out of her way to make an umbrella for me?I really can't figure it out, I can't figure it out.
Soon after getting engaged, Mi Hua got married and left Luojia Village.
A year later, she gave birth to a child, and when the moon was over, she took the child back to her parents' house to live for a few days.
She has children, and that little feeling in my heart should have vanished, but I still want to figure out whether she shook my hand consciously or unconsciously.
When she was holding her baby in her arms and lingering in a place where she often watched movies, I walked over, looked at the child in her arms and said, "Oops, it looks like you, it's so beautiful!".She was very satisfied with my praise of her child, and said to the child: "Baby, uncle is praising you, praising you for being beautiful, happy, hehe......hee."”
Now, she is focused on her own child, and I don't need to figure out whether she is conscious or unconscious, however, I still said a superfluous sentence: "Sister Mihua, do you remember that time to watch the movie?".It was raining, and we hid under an umbrella. ”
Remember, oh......She looked at me and smiled, her face flushed as if she understood something, but she didn't say much.
Forget it, everyone is a person with children, and I secretly scolded myself: "I didn't have the courage at the time, but now I want to figure it out, isn't this the performance of a coward?"”
Now, looking back on the past, I have another insight: when youth is sentimental, it is not a good thing to leave some beautiful imagination, if everything falls into place, but it is not interesting, life will be boring.
