Chapter 1064 Zhou Mingxuan’s Invitation
Zhou Mingxuan could hear Liu Jingxue's annoyance, and when he heard her ask if they had prepared the lights and firecrackers, he hurriedly comforted her.
"Xiaoxue, don't worry, we have prepared your light bulbs for you.
We had heard about the supply and marketing cooperative's light bulbs being out of stock a long time ago, but we had no intention of doing so.
I haven't heard you mention buying light bulbs for a while, so I guess you forgot about it, so I prepared yours."
Putting down the hoe on his shoulder, Zhou Mingxuan patiently explained,
“We had already asked a friend to help us get the light bulbs, and they probably have already been obtained.
We have four here and you have three, a total of seven, all 25 watts.
The current maximum power of light bulbs is 45 watts, but in order to save electricity, there are regulations that prohibit the maximum power consumption of lighting in the home, and the maximum power consumption can only be 25 watts, so the light bulbs we ordered are all 25 watts. "
Liu Jingxue had no objection to the wattage, but she was a little curious as to why this person prepared two more.
"I only have two rooms here, and you only have three rooms. Why do you have to prepare one more?"
Zhou Mingxuan looked at her suspiciously, "Xiaoxue, you haven't used electricity for a few years, and you forgot that light bulbs can easily burn out.
If light bulbs weren't in such short supply here, I would have wanted to get a few more as backup."
"But it doesn't matter. After a while, when light bulbs are not so in short supply here, I can get a few more as backup."
Well, in modern times, Liu Jingxue doesn’t need to replace light bulbs for several years, and she really forgot that light bulbs are consumables.
Fearing that she would arouse the man's suspicion, she quickly explained, "I haven't used electricity for a few years, and I really forgot about it.
You have to have one or two as spares.”
"We're going to have electricity the day after tomorrow, so we might have to get it back tomorrow. Are you going to town tomorrow?"
Zhou Mingxuan rolled his eyes, "Xiaoxue, are you going to town tomorrow?
You have to send those things of Uncle Liu and the others over.
I see that you go to work in the morning and stay at home in the afternoon, and never go out to play. How about we go to town to play for a day and send a package at the same time tomorrow?"
“I went to town a few days ago and heard that there were two new films that were very good, ‘Sunny Days’ and ‘The Trumpet Player’.
Why don’t we go and take a look.
You've been here for a few years, haven't you seen a movie yet?"
Not to mention, after Liu Jingxue came to this era, she has never been to a movie theater or watched a movie.
She has no idea how many movies, TV shows, and variety shows she has watched in her space, and she no longer wants to watch them.
After hearing what Zhou Mingxuan said, she was actually quite bored and wanted to go and see what the differences were between movies of that era and modern ones.
Seeing Liu Jingxue's intention, Zhou Mingxuan continued to persuade her.
"It's already July, and in less than two months it will be the autumn harvest. By then we'll be working every day and won't have time to rest.
Later it was freezing cold and we had to stay indoors for the winter, so we didn’t want to go out anymore.
Why don't you take advantage of this time to have more fun. There isn't much work in the fields now anyway, and you're not short of work points, so go out and have more fun.
Don't stay at home all day like a retired old man or old woman."
Thinking of Zhao Junhao's complaints about Liu Jingxue, Zhou Mingxuan couldn't help but say,
"Saying that you are a retired old man or old woman is really overestimating you.
Other people at least go for a walk, play chess or chat with others. But you, apart from going to the fields or mountains, just stay at home and don't communicate with anyone at all.
I really don’t know how you got through the years.”
Liu Jingxue really wants to say that in modern times, as long as there are computers and mobile phones, there are plenty of otakus and otaku girls like her.
You see me staying at home every day, but actually I have been all over the world.
I don’t even know how many times I’ve visited the Japanese country.
But unfortunately, she couldn't say this to anyone.
"Master, didn't you promise me that you would integrate into this era and stop being so lonely in the future? How about starting now?
I am tired of watching those movies and TV shows in the space, why don’t you go watch some movies from this era and give me some experience.”
“You don’t have to practice specially now, and I’ve made enough medicine in the past few months. It’s time to take a break.
Why not go out and have some fun? "
Liu Jingxue was somewhat tempted, and with Tuanzi's persuasion, she had some ideas in her mind.
But after looking at Zhou Mingxuan standing in front of her, she shook her head and said, "Let's talk about watching a movie later."
Zhou Mingxuan was a little puzzled. This man was obviously tempted, so why would he insist on not going?
But he didn't expect to convince this person in one go, so he thought of looking for another opportunity later.
"Oh well.
I will go to town tomorrow to get the light bulbs and send them to you later."
Liu Jingxue nodded, "Tell me how much money you want when the time comes, and I'll give it to you."
"no problem."
After separating from Zhou Mingxuan, Liu Jingxue rode her bicycle and continued walking out.
"Master, you are obviously excited and want to go to the movies, so why didn't you agree to Zhou Mingxuan's invitation just now?" Tuanzi said puzzledly.
"Tuanzi, are you stupid?
You don’t even think about the fact that this is not the modern era.
In this day and age, relationships between men and women have to be extremely careful. Going to the movies with the opposite sex may be seen by others as dating. "
"You guys are so familiar with each other and have eaten together so many times. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Liu Jingxue shook her head, "That won't work either.
When you are eating, there are elders around and you are at home, so it’s naturally okay.
But it’s better to be careful when going to public places like movie theaters.
It would be terrible if someone we know saw us and thought we were dating. "
If Zhou Mingxuan heard what Liu Jingxue said, he would probably cry to death.
Tuanzi was a little disappointed, "It's a pity that we can't watch movies from this era anymore."
Liu Jingxue's voice sounded somewhat disappointed.
“Tuanzi, are you stupid? Not going with him doesn’t mean we can’t go to the movies.
Why don't we just go there secretly?"
"Don't you think about it? It's July, it's so hot, and there's no air conditioning.
If you go to the movies at this time, in a closed environment, you will be hot to death and suffocated by the stench of people's sweat.
Why should we go there openly and suffer this punishment?
Going secretly, without squeezing with those sweaty people, and without spending money on tickets, is much more comfortable."
Tuanzi's teasing voice sounded, "Master, you are a wealthy woman now, why are you so stingy?
Even the small amount of money for watching movies should be saved.”
Liu Jingxue coughed twice in embarrassment, "No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it's still meat, right?
Besides, do you want me to be crowded with so many people and smell their sweat? "
"Besides, if we go secretly, we can get the best seats and watch several games."
When Tuanzi heard this, he immediately stopped objecting and asked, "When are we going?"
Liu Jingxue thought for a moment and said, "Maybe in two days.
They are going to the town to get light bulbs tomorrow. If we go to the town, we will inevitably run into them.
The day after tomorrow the production team will have electricity, and electricity will be brought into every household. I will definitely have to stay at home.
After we finish these two things, we will go to town."
Tuanzi naturally agreed readily.
