Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 12
Lu Yan nibbled at the seeds and looked up at the sky. Occasionally, he glanced at the woman beside him. Seeing her pretty cheeks bulging slightly when she was chewing, why did he think…this little pepper was sweet?
It was in the strange atmosphere that the movie began.
After the two sat down, Qin Rou raised her head to watch the old black and white movie, and then looked at the handsome officer sitting next to her, this bear, oh no, the quick tempered but beautiful man.
It was dark all around, and the light on the screen hit his face, making his facial features more three-dimensional. His nose was really high and straight. His jaw was sharp and angular, giving people a natural sense of justice.
Looking at his face, it made people think that he should be a police officer or soldier with a magnificent image.
Director Sun seemed to have said that he was from Jiaodao, Shandong Province.
Qin Rou nodded secretly. As long as he didn’t stand up, she felt very safe sitting next to him.
The two of them sitting together with such a style of appearance were actually very fascinating.
Qin Rou also knew that she was too beautiful and charming. She had an enchanting face and the man next to her had a righteous face. What did they look like together?
Like a goblin and a justice priest? Both were natural enemies.
If someone walked to Lu Yan, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “Are you here to collect demons?”
Qin Rou had to explain to people that she, an innocent vixen, was really passing by.
Sometimes Qin Rou also admired her own brain, and blamed herself for having these eyes. Since she was a child, she was accustomed to being nicknamed as little fox, and now she had assumed the identity of a fox spirit, so she didn’t find it strange.
Just when Qin Rou was thinking about it, the movie started playing.
Most of the black-and-white movies of the era were famous movies of the past. Although they were black-and-white, they were made with great care. Qin Rou watched and was fascinated by it.
She had another characteristic, that was, she was easily moved and cried.
Seeing the scene of sacrifice, tears streamed down her cheeks, but she couldn’t restrain herself.
Qin Rou raised her hand to wipe her tears several times. The back of her hand was wet, she tried her best to hold back her tears and snot.
The actors of the era acted very carefully, and the soundtrack was even more tear-jerking. Coupled with the black and white, the simple dress, and the simple language, her tears could not be held back.
The person next to her handed her a tissue.
“Thank you…”
Qin Rou gratefully took it. Although she didn’t know where Lu Yan got the tissue, she really needed it now.
After she had the tissue in her hand, Qin Rou simply indulged herself even more.
She didn’t hold back her tears until the movie ended and most of the people next to her had left.
Wiping away the tears on her face, Qin Rou calmly realized that she still had a companion. She was now full of ugliness, but it didn’t matter. Fortunately, it was the first and probably the last time they met.
After thinking about it, she didn’t feel embarrassed anymore.
For Qin Rou, after she finished crying, she would have a very comfortable and calm feeling.
She walked out of the cinema with Lu Yan, and didn’t care much about her image, so she decided to say goodbye to Lu Yan.
Two or three hours had passed since the movie, and they could go back.
“Comrade Lu, it’s my pleasure getting along with you. It’s late, so I’ll go back, bye,” Qin Rou smiled at him, her voice still a little hoarse from crying.
She was secretly proud of herself.
Lu Yan nodded. He looked at Qin Rou’s red fox’s eyes, which seemed to be filled with water. The water reflected his face, and the tip of her nose, which was upturned at the bottom, was dyed a little red. Suddenly, his mouth was dry. Trembling in the bottom of his heart, he said, “I’ll drop you off.”
“No, look, the bus is already parked there, I’ll get on the bus!” Before he could answer, Qin Rou turned around and trotted to the bus, she waved forward, signaling the driver to wait for her.
When it was time to get on the bus, Qin Rou couldn’t help but look back at him.
Lu Yan’s figure appeared in her line of sight, and it had to be said that his appearance and figure were her ideal type.
It was just that she was “Lord Ye loves dragon”, and it was not a loss to watch a movie with the dragon.
Qin Rou smiled and waved to him, then turned to get on the bus.
Maybe there would be no chance to meet him again in the future.
Lu Yan stood on the street and watched the bus disappear from sight. Even if she left, the corners of her eyes and brows were still in front of his eyes, especially her smile, which was like a little fox .
He turned his head to look at the cinema, looking at the place where the two of them were eating melon seeds together, a little smile appeared in his eyes.
She said it was a pleasure getting along with him.
Lu Yan nodded secretly, it seemed that his first battle plan was successful.

Miao note:
Lord Ye Loved Dragons: meaning that someone loves a certain thing outwardly, but not sincerely. Here Qin Rou likes strong muscular men but not with sincerity as she also feared them.
Story Lord Ye had a particular love for dragons. His house was “covered” in dragon designs, paintings, carvings – whether on his weapons, bed linen, chairs or walls. On hearing about his passion for dragons, a celestial dragon was so moved that it decided to honor Ye by paying him a visit. So, it descended to earth into Ye’s bedroom. But Ye, the dragon lover, was so frightened by the dragon’s visit that he ran away as fast as he could.
What Lord Ye loved was not the real dragon, but something that merely looked like a dragon.
