Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days
Chapter 180 Buy a TV
The three children, Baolin, Yaoyao and Zhuzhu, complained bitterly that she was biased!
Zhang Xiuhua said confidently, "You don't like ship and sky models! Going to Russia is just a waste of time. Think about what you like. After you finish your high school entrance exam, I will take you there!"
Baolin and Yaoyao don't really have any favorites. The main reason is that the two children have seen too little of the world and don't have a deep understanding of it.
Zhuzhu thought of one, and she raised her hand, "Mom! I want to see what TV looks like!"
"Hurry up! I've asked your dad to get the tickets. They'll be available soon. You can watch TV at home then."
Baolin and Yaoyao didn't have time to think. They jumped up when they heard this, "Really? TVs are so expensive! My classmate has one!"
"Don't worry. I'll buy it for you no matter how expensive it is!" Zhang Xiuhua was wealthy and generous, and the three children giggled at her bold words.
Since she had promised her child, Zhang Xiuhua went to the railway station in the county town to ask how to apply for a passport. The procedure was simple, but the review was very strict.
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye and Li Jianguo came back.
I don't know where he borrowed the bicycle from, but there was a big thing on the back. The children were clamoring for gifts.
Li Jianguo really didn't buy it this time, and the children were very disappointed.
Li Jianguo smiled at them and said, "Your mother asked me to buy a TV, and I spent all the money I had."
When they heard there was a TV, the children immediately gathered around and asked, "Where is it?"
Li Jianguo took the boxes down from the back seat and the children gathered around him, watching him unpack the boxes.
When he finished dismantling it and the TV was exposed, Baolin said happily, "It's just like in the book."
I moved the TV to the coffee table in the living room and plugged it into a power source, but all I could hear was snow.
"What's the matter? Is it broken?" Baolin was a little disappointed, and so was Yaoyao.
Jidong asked them to wait a little longer, "The TV needs to be connected to the signal. My uncle is setting up the antenna outside."
Li Jianguo found a wooden stick from the firewood pile, climbed onto the roof, and asked Jidong and Youcai to climb up to help.
Youcai moved very quickly and climbed onto the roof in no time. Jidong had never done such a job before and climbed for a long time but couldn't get up.
It was Guoxiang who came to play with Youcai, and disliked his slowness, so he climbed over the wall and onto the roof for him.
Three people were fiddling with the antenna, and a kid below was helping to watch. "The picture is coming out! Oops, it's gone again!"
The signal was very unstable at this time and the picture was jumping.
After finally setting up the tripod, Li Jianguo adjusted it several times before the picture finally stopped flickering.
"That's it! Very good! Don't move anymore!"
Li Jianguo actually bought a color TV. You should know that a black and white TV only costs 21 yuan now, but a color TV is a -inch Venus brand TV, which costs yuan.
Zhang Xiuhua didn't expect color TVs to be so expensive nowadays.
Li Jianguo's family bought a TV, and all the villagers came to watch the fun.
Everyone was amazed when they saw the scene coming out.
"How did this person fit into the box? How did he get recorded in there?"
"Camera!" Jidong replied.
“How much is this TV?”
Li Jianguo quoted the price, and the members all gasped. Three thousand six, not three hundred and sixty, it's a steal! So expensive! "I didn't want to buy a color TV originally, it's too expensive, but our leader happened to have a ticket for a TV and said he wanted to transfer it. This ticket is very difficult to get, and I finally came across it, so I had no choice but to take it. But when I got to the mall, the cheaper ones were all picked up by others, and only this one was left!"
In fact, he had his eyes on the TV, but in order to prevent the members from being jealous of his family, he had to say it in a more submissive way.
"Jianguo, your family makes so much money from raising chickens?!"
"You all know how much I earn!" Li Jianguo explained, "I also asked my boss for an advance of half a year's salary, and my colleagues also lent me a few hundred yuan. It took a lot of effort to get the money together."
The members felt better, but 3,600 yuan was still very expensive.
Huahua, who went to school with Zhuzhu, pulled her mother's sleeve and said, "Mom, can we buy a TV too?"
Other children also looked forward to watching their parents.
Parents shook their heads and said, "It's too expensive, we can't afford it!"
Some parents are more irritable and will directly scold, "Why buy a TV! It's not appropriate to eat or drink!"
Some people asked if all TVs were this expensive.
Li Jianguo explained, "In fact, there are black and white TVs. Not color, just black and white, and 400 yuan is enough."
The members thought that 3600 was not a good idea, but 400 was still something they could consider. When they had enough money, they would buy a black and white TV.
Zhang Xiuhua originally bought a TV to give her children a childhood and watch cartoons. She didn't expect them to be so addicted. They would stand in front of the TV every day.
The children would sit in front of the TV from the moment the signal came on at noon, and they even watched the commercials with gusto.
What made her even more speechless was that all the children in the village came to her house.
Her living room was originally quite large, but no matter how big the room was, it couldn't accommodate so many children. Especially since it was summer vacation, children of all ages were on vacation.
Even an adult like Zhang Xiuhua can only squeeze in the yard.
Seeing that the house was full of children, Xu Chunying felt sorry for her. "How much will the electricity bill be? You will suffer when you pay the bill later!"
Zhang Xiuhua was not worried about the electricity bill, but she felt that she could not go on like this.
Except for the no-shows from 12:15 to 23:, they watch TV almost all the time from : in the morning to : at night. Homework has long been thrown out of the window. Even Youcai doesn't like to cook anymore. If this continues, what's the point of buying a TV in the first place?
That afternoon, Zhang Xiuhua did nothing but let them go hungry and hid all the snacks in the house.
Other parents had already called their children home for dinner, but their children were the only ones still watching the TV with great interest.
Zhang Xiuhua didn't care about them. After filling her stomach in the kitchen, she washed the dishes.
Finally it was 20 p.m., their stomachs growling with hunger, and they rummaged through drawers and cabinets looking for food.
But there was nothing to eat.
Zhang Xiuhua was feeding chickens at the chicken farm. The children were not allowed to go in, so they could only stand at the door and shout, "Mom! Where's the key to the cabinet at home?! I'm hungry!"
"If you're hungry, go find the TV! Aren't you immortals?!" Zhang Xiuhua won't tolerate their bad habits!
She fed a row of chickens and suddenly heard a clucking sound, which was a sign of good news that the chicken had laid an egg. Zhang Xiuhua looked in the direction of the sound and saw an egg sliding down from above. Ah! It laid an egg!
She happily put the eggs in the basin, and then observed whether other chickens had laid eggs.
After walking around, I found that four more chickens had laid eggs.
This was the first day, and not many chickens were laying eggs, but it was a good start. After she fed the chickens, she adjusted the direction of the electric fan.
The weather was hot, and with so many chickens crowded together, the temperature in the chicken farm was very high. Worried that the chickens would die of heat, she bought four electric fans to fan the chickens!
Fortunately, the highest temperature in Northeast China in summer is only over 30 degrees, and only during the noon period.
The problem is the big temperature difference. After using the fan for two hours at noon, you have to turn it off because the temperature may only be 20 degrees at night.
She changed her clothes and came out with some eggs, meeting the pitiful eyes of the six children.
Li Jianguo came back from outside and saw them standing at the door. "What's wrong?"
"Have you eaten?" Zhang Xiuhua ignored these naughty kids.
"I have eaten." Li Jianguo went to several other villages and asked them what kind of chickens they would raise next year. The leader of a village invited him to have dinner at his home. He couldn't refuse and agreed.
