In September this year, the radio began to report that our country's own TV sets were finally successfully manufactured.

In fact, TVs have appeared in China a few years ago, but they were all imported from abroad. The number was very small, and the TV industry was not developed at that time. Even if you have a TV at home, you can't watch any programs, and there is no TV signal. It's just a decoration.

Now that the country finally has its own TV set, and the related TV industry has begun to be established, the acceptance level of the Chinese people for the new thing TV is not yet high. First, very few people know about televisions, and even fewer people have come into contact with them. In the eyes of most people, having a radio means that the family is in good condition. What is a television?

After all, the four most important items for marriage in this era are sewing machines, radios, bicycles, and watches. It can be seen that radio now occupies a position in the hearts of the people.

Tang Xin still remembered looking at the photos of her parents when they were getting married in her previous life. One of them was a photo of her mother with a cassette player. Mom said that at that time, it would be a big deal if anyone had a cassette player at home. It was definitely worth showing off, so I took a lot of photos with the tape recorder. My mother also said that her family was among the first to buy a TV. She and her father both worked in a factory, and they were two-income people. They only bought a black and white TV in 83. That was rare in factories at that time. Tang Xin still remembers that when she was a child, her house would be full of people after dinner, waiting to watch the news broadcast and Legend of the Condor Heroes. When did that happen?

It turns out that there is a TV now. For Tang Xin, who has not watched TV for a long time, she really wants one.

She discussed with her father to buy a TV set at home. As a good father who loves his daughter, Dad Tang naturally does everything he deserves. My daughter has never taken the initiative to make any requests, and this must be met. So I went to discuss it with Tang Ma.

Tang’s mother disagreed at first. No matter how much you pamper your daughter, there must be a limit. “Let’s not talk about the price of this TV. It’s definitely not easy to buy when it comes out, and you need industrial coupons. The most important thing now is not money. How many things can you buy with coupons, especially industrial coupons? You must know that industrial coupons are usually only issued to employees of state-owned enterprises, and ordinary people are not eligible to get them."

Father Tang didn't want his daughter to be disappointed, so he continued to persuade: "Didn't our family save a lot of industrial coupons before? Besides, our school also distributes them, so let's just ask around. If we really need too many, we won't buy them." .”

Unable to stand Tang's father's pestering, Tang's mother just relented and agreed to ask.

Of course, the couple's conversation was not told to Tang Xin. She didn't know that her mother didn't agree to buy a TV.

On the weekend, I made an appointment with my grandma and the others to go to Xiangshan to enjoy the red leaves. While the weather was fine, I took a few elderly people out to walk around, see the scenery, and exercise more. Save it when the weather gets cold and it is inconvenient for the elderly to go out.

Uncle Gu drove over early in the morning to pick up the family and took them to the Tang family's old house. Since the Tang family was near Xiangshan, it was a short walk from there to Xiangshan Park, and everyone made an appointment to gather there.

Although I have seen Fragrant Mountain in autumn many times, Tang Xin is still shocked by the scenery in front of me every autumn. The red leaves all over the mountains and plains are like nature’s paintbrushes, sketching out a colorful picture in autumn. Red and yellow spread from the front to the distance, dyeing the entire mountain into a golden ocean.

"No wonder Du Mu wrote about parking his car and sitting in the maple forest at night, with frost leaves red as the flowers in February. This is such an apt description." Dad Tang sighed with emotion.

For today's trip, Tang's father specially brought his uncle's new camera to leave the best memories for the family.

This outing was really enjoyable. Since we had to take care of several elderly people, we didn't go far. We just walked around the park, took photos, and found a chair to sit for a while when we were tired. It was quite relaxing. In fact, Tang Xin thinks that this is the best way to travel. Slowing down can better appreciate the surrounding scenery. Instead of traveling like in the previous life, that is, sleeping in the car and taking pictures after getting off the car. After a trip, all that is left are check-in photos, which completely loses the meaning of travel.

Tang Xin was very excited. Her father took a lot of beautiful photos. She and her brother picked up a lot of beautiful leaves. They planned to make specimens when they go back and put them in books or use them as bookmarks.

It was noon, and everyone had been playing for more than three hours. Dad Tang looked at the time and it was time to go back for dinner.

"Zhan Bo, Tang Xin, it's time to go home." Tang's father shouted to the two people who were picking up leaves in the distance.

"Okay, got it." Zhan Bo replied, and then took his sister with him. Went home with the large army.

When I got home, Sister Wu had just finished cooking the meal. She had calculated the time and it was just right. "I guess you guys will be back soon. I've just finished cooking this meal."

"Sister Wu, you are really amazing. You have just the right timing. I exercised a lot this morning and I'm really hungry." Zhan Bo said to Sister Wu and quickly washed his hands.

Sister Wu habitually turns on the radio when eating, three times every morning, noon and evening. Listening to the radio while eating has become a habit at home.

Seeing Sister Wu turn on the radio, Tang Xin thought about the TV again, so she asked in a low voice: "Dad, has Mom agreed to the TV?"

"What did you promise?" Zhan Bo, who was sitting next to Tang Xin, heard Tang Xin's words with his sharp ears.

With this sudden sound, the entire table's attention was focused on her. Tang Xin didn't know what to say for a moment. It was Father Tang who spoke first.

"It's nothing. Your sister just heard from the news that TV sets have started to be sold in our country. She also wants to buy one at home. Your mother and I are discussing this."

"Really? That's great. Let's buy one for our family. I haven't watched TV yet." Zhan Bo was very happy when he heard it. What child is not interested in new things.

"Your dad and I haven't decided whether to buy it yet. Why are you so excited? Hurry up and eat." Tang's mother ruthlessly interrupted her son's thoughts.

"Oh, why? Wouldn't it be better for our family to buy a TV? That would be the first of its kind in our area." Zhan Bo felt a little resentful.

"What's so good about the first one? Besides, the TV has just come out, and I don't know how to buy it. Let's not talk about the price. I will definitely need industrial coupons. I don't know how many industrial coupons are needed. I really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. You Do you know how many things you can buy with industrial coupons?" Tang's mother educated her son.

Tang Xin was also very embarrassed after hearing this. She just wanted a TV and had forgotten about this. It’s like starting over again, and I’m living more and more like a real child.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't think about it so much. We won't buy that TV, that's all I said." Tang Xin quickly expressed her position to her mother, it really doesn't matter whether she buys it or not.

Seeing that her daughter was so sensible, Tang's mother hesitated. Hey, what should I do if I suddenly want to meet my daughter’s request?
