Chapter 468 The Runaway Little Sister
Because it was during the Spring Festival, the cinema in Qingshui County was almost full, and most of them were young people and students who came in groups to play.
Anyone who watched movies in the 1980s knows that if the audience in a movie theater were mainly small groups of a dozen or so people who knew each other, then the movie-watching environment would be "buzzing" and not very good.
This is indeed the case. When the movie first started, the buzzing chatter made Li Ye feel a little uncomfortable, but soon no one spoke.
Because "Garland Under the Mountain" seems to be a war movie, but it is filled with a lot of plots about human nature. The wonderful plot and the performances of excellent actors quickly aroused psychological resonance among ordinary audiences.
"Why doesn't Deputy Company Commander Jin even approve third-class merit?"
"."
"There is no violation of discipline. I agree to cutting sugar cane on the battlefield."
"."
"I want to leapfrog the reaction, react to XX, react to the capital."
Looking at Zhao Mengsheng on the screen who was suppressing his anger because his deputy company commander was suppressed from judging his merits, Li Ye had to sigh that good literary works will never be buried.
When filming "The Lonely Soldier" and "Spring Goes and Spring Comes Back Again", Li Ye did not specify that Lao Xie must be the director. It was the Shanghai Film Studio that decided that Lao Xie was the most suitable.
However, under the interference of Li Ye, the filming unit of "Garland Under the Mountain" was changed from Shanghai Film Factory to Bayi Film Studio.
But even though Li Ye disrupted the trajectory of history, this film still managed to correct itself on the original path. It was very classic, very beautiful, and very bold.
The original author was bold in writing the novel, and the director was also bold in making the movie.
The starring role is still a handsome actor surnamed Tang, because he was originally an actor in the Bayi Film Studio, and with his performance in this movie, he successfully took off his hat as a little boy.
Especially in the section after the war, he performed very well, and his behavior, words and lines all touched the hearts of the audience.
However, Li Ye thinks that the best and most touching things in the whole drama are the supporting characters.
Little BJ, Commander Lei, the families of Deputy Company Commander Jin, and Liang Sanxi’s mother and daughter-in-law
When the movie showed company commander Liang Sanxi's old mother and family members selling the family's big fat pig to pay off debts, Li Ye, who had written novels and knew all kinds of sensationalism, couldn't help but My nose is sore and my eyes are uncomfortable.
In this era of "debts are wiped out upon death", the family of a martyr sold the big fat pig immediately after receiving the notice of death in battle, and took the money to come all the way to pay off the debt for the martyr. , what kind of moral quality is this?
The problem is, this plot still has a real prototype.
It is said that when the original author was communicating with the filming crew, he strongly requested that this paragraph not be deleted, even if it was criticized for treating the martyrs harshly.
This is what Li Ye admires the most. The original author did reflect some negative things in his works, but what he wanted to show most was the "greatness of ordinary people", rather than seizing the darkness of human nature and trying to discredit it. .
And this kind of greatness of ordinary people has indeed infected all audiences.
When the movie ended, many viewers around Li Ye had wet eyes, and his two little sisters even had their noses red from crying, and they didn't even bother to eat the fried melon seeds in their hands.
The little sister wiped her tears and said: "Why did you let little BJ die? Why do so many adults let the youngest him build a bunker?"
Sister Li Ying wiped her nose: "You are the youngest and don't build bunkers anymore? You are the youngest in the family and you are not used to doing any kind of work."
"."
After the movie ended, everyone crowded in the aisle and walked slowly out, discussing the various unwillingnesses in the movie as they walked.
Among them, the role of Little BJ is the most discussed by middle school students of Li Juan and Li Ying's age.
They are so close in age and it hurts so much.
"Brother, do you think the medal little BJ got is first-class merit?"
"."
Li Ye was silent for a moment and said in a low voice: "In principle, injured soldiers are eligible for third-class merit, disabled soldiers are second-class, and dead soldiers are eligible for first-class merit. But as a family member, I never want to be judged for myself. My relatives are going to get first-class merit.”
In his previous life, Li Ye happened to pass by a small town on the border of Yunnan Province around the Qingming Festival. As a result, when he stayed at night, there was not an empty bed in the dozens of hotels in the county, all of which came to commemorate the martyrs.
After a little questioning, I found out that most of the people who came to visit the graves were the parents of the martyrs, and most of their sons were young, very young, when they sacrificed their lives.
So even though Li Ye was passing by in a hurry and didn't see the rows of tombstones on the hillside, he knew that there were countless children like little BJ buried in the mountains around the county.
Following the crowd, the three brothers and sisters finally left the cinema, and the entrance of the cinema was already crowded with audiences waiting for the next show.
"Brother, there is a candied haws shop selling candied haws. It's only two skewers for a dime. It's so sweet to take a bite. Just wait for me and I'll buy it for you."
Ever since Li Ye asked Li Ying to learn to "speak sweetly" that day, this little girl listened, but she only talked sweetly to Li Ye, because it was useless to talk sweetly to others, and she might even lose money.
How could Li Ye ask his sister to buy it? He immediately said, "I'll buy it! Just stand here and don't move!"
"Oh, let's not move. Brother, when you buy it, choose carefully. There are big ones and small ones. If you don't choose them, just give them to the small ones."
"."
Li Ye smiled and went over to spend 50 cents to buy a large handful of candied haws, planning to take them back for his family to try. Although grandma is not very greedy as she gets older, who doesn't like to taste something sweet?
But when Li Ye came back from buying candied haws, he saw a middle-aged man and a little boy standing in front of his two sisters.
"Xiaojuan, Xiaoying, you two are watching a movie again!"
"."
Li Ye took a look at the middle-aged man in front of him and recalled it carefully. He must have never seen him before.
But this person's tone of voice was very strange, and he didn't mean anything at all. And what do you mean by "watching a movie again?"
Do you care?
Just when Li Ye was about to ask who the other party was, Li Juan took Li Ying's hand, turned around and walked to the right.
Li Ye's eyes narrowed, because the two sisters looked like they were "hiding away."
"Where are you two going?"
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand to stop Li Juan and Li Ying with some embarrassment, but suddenly felt that the back collar of his cotton-padded jacket was grabbed and dragged back violently, which made his throat feel uncomfortable.
Li Ye grabbed the middle-aged man, twisted his head, and asked coldly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
The middle-aged man turned around and saw that Li Ye was a young man, and said angrily: "Hey, what are you doing? What are you going to do, you brat?"
"Zaizi" is a curse word used by Dongshan people. Generally, when adults scold minors or newly grown children, they will habitually blurt out "Zaizi".
But Li Ye doesn't care if it's just a habit. It's inconvenient to hold the candied haws in your right hand. He grabs the other person's collar with his left hand, stretches out his right leg to pin the other person's calf, and stumbles and pulls.
"Plop~"
The middle-aged man fell hard to the ground, and then Li Ye stepped on his knees, making him unable to get up.
"Wow~, why did you hit my dad? Why did you hit my dad?"
The little boy following the middle-aged man cried, grabbing Li Ye's trouser legs and beating him again and again.
"Let's go~, let's go~"
"If you hit my father, I will fight with you~"
"."
Li Ye frowned, things were a little tricky.
The little boy in front of him weighed only fifty or sixty pounds. Li Ye could kick him ten meters away, but he did not dare to lift his foot.
Poor Li Ye, a well-known fool in Qingshui County, a street warrior who beat ten men, was unable to fight back when faced with the beatings of a weak little boy.
But just when the little boy grabbed Li Ye's leg and rubbed his nose and tears on his pants, the little sister Li Ying rushed over and kicked on the little boy's body.
"Fuck you mother~"
"."
Although Li Ying occasionally quarreled or even got physical with her sister, she rarely cursed because scolding could easily lead to more violent blows from the other party.
At a young age, she knew how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. You wonder what she went through in the past few years.
But today she not only hit people, but also cursed them. She was obviously extremely angry.
And the middle-aged man's next words made Li Ye angry.
"What are you doing? Why are you beating your brother? Why are you so cruel? That's your brother."
"Come on, come on, you beat me, you beat your father to death, you beat your own father to death."
"."
Li Ye finally knew who the middle-aged man in front of him was.
Han Chunmei’s ex-husband, Bi Hongwei.
Li Ye had only heard of this man but never seen him. After all, before Han Chunmei married Li Kaijian, he had kicked Han Chunmei and her daughter out for many years.
However, people around him didn't know that Bi Hongwei drove Han Chunmei and her daughter out of the house. After hearing Bi Hongwei's words, they all said anything.
"Hey, my daughter beats her own father. Isn't this like thunder?"
"Do they look alike to you? Look at the cotton-padded jacket that the father is wearing, and look at the fur that the little girl is wearing. Do they look like a family?"
"But why didn't those two little girls talk back? Can you not talk back about this kind of thing? If someone said it was your father, wouldn't you talk back?"
"Bah, how dare you? I'll knock out all his teeth."
"."
The chatter and gossip of the people around him seemed to have given Bi Hongwei a shot in the arm while he was lying on the ground, making him more arrogant and provocative towards his little sister Li Ying.
"Xiaojuan, Xiaoying, come here and help me take the candied haws, and let's go."
Li Ye handed the candied haws to his sister and let them hold it, then let go of the middle-aged man at his feet, glanced at him coldly, and wanted to leave without stepping on this stinking shit.
But Bi Hongwei got excited, lying on the ground and kept shouting things like "Come and trample your father to death".
Li Ye couldn't bear it anymore and turned around to step on him again.
But the little sister Li Ying got ahead of Li Ye, jumped over and gave Bi Hongwei a hard kick.
