Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 37: Toothache

Many people came to watch movies on National Day, and there were many young people and families at the entrance.

At the entrance, Chu Xia saw Brother Bang and the kids. They are no longer selling ice cream, but now they sell sunflower seeds, peanuts, and soda, and there are many customers.

Chu Xia and Cen Zhengnian didn't go over there, but An'an ran to talk to them alone. Since the film hadn't started yet, he helped the kids sell their stuff for a while.

When he came back, he was holding a paper bag of melon seeds and peanuts and handed it directly to Chu Xia: "Mom, you eat."

Chu Xia took it without any politeness and asked Cen Huai'an, "Did you pay for it?"

"Brother Bang didn't want it; he said it's for us."

"Then you have to give it." Chu Xia asked An'an to send the money back. She didn't know what he said to Brother Bang; she only saw Brother Bang frowning at her and taking the money.

Inside the movie cinema, Cen Huai'an held Chu Xia's hand tightly, his eyes curious as he looked around.

He's never been inside a cinema before, and it's amazing how big it can be and how many chairs can be put down!

How is the film played? What is that big white cloth in the middle for?

There were many questions in his mind, but he didn't ask anything; he just guessed in his own head.

After Chu Xia and Cen Zhengnian brought him to his seat, he sat in his own seat, but he couldn't help but turn his head back and forth to look at the film, touching his hand here and there on the chair.

Sensing his excitement, Chu Xia grabbed his hands and pointed to the big white cloth facing the family of three and said, "When the film starts, the picture will appear on it, similar to watching TV at home, only the film screen is bigger."

As she speaks, Cen Huai'an's attention has already been drawn to the white cloth, his eyes revealing a desire to find out more.

Chu Xia is about to say a few words about the principles of film projection when Cen Zhengnian suddenly opens his mouth from the side and asks, "An'an, do you want to know how the film is shown?"

Cen Huai'an immediately turned his head to look at him and hesitantly let out a "hmm".

When Cen Zhengnian heard this, a smile appeared on his face as he stood up from the chair, and in the process, he pulled An'an up as well and said, "Then let's go and see how the film was played."

Cen Huai'an's eyes reveal a bright light, and he turns his head to look at Chu Xia, his eyes expressing only one thing: he wants to see it.

Chu Xia waved her hand. "You guys, go ahead."

Cen Zhengnian also extends his hand towards Chu Xia: "Let's go together."

Chu Xia shakes her head. "I'm not going; there are too many people, and the projectionist will not be happy."

Cen Zhengnian sees that she really doesn't want to go and doesn't insist anymore; he pulls Cen Huai An's hand out of the seat and walks towards the projectionist in the middle.

At this time of the year, movies were shown with a projectionist sitting in the middle of the cinema at more than head height, manipulating a projector.

When Cen Zhengnian and Cen Huai'an went over, there were a number of small children gathered there, all curious about the projector and the film being shown.

When Cen Zhengnian asked about it, the projectionist said, "Look, look, look. You can only see it; you can't touch it."

This projectionist was good-tempered; otherwise, there wouldn't be so many children around. If the projectionist had a bad temper, he wouldn't let people get close to him.
