Li Xiangnan, who was holding a heavy TV, was really confused when he heard Ma Ying's words!

Is this TV a wedding gift for me?

Li Xiangnan was stunned at first, and his brain went blank for a few seconds.

He raised his head and looked at Cui Xingjian, Sun Jie, Yang Weidong, Tao Zhengtie and Wang Defa who were walking down the stairs, and then he realized that what Ma Ying said was not a joke!

This is real!

The TV is really something I bought for myself!

Wang Defa and these guys came here to queue up day and night, just to get the qualification to buy the TV as soon as possible!

At this moment, Li Xiangnan was somewhat moved.

It turned out that I had completely misunderstood them just now. I thought these guys came to line up before dawn just to get a TV for themselves!

No wonder when I went to ask Cui Xingjian just now, this guy looked embarrassed and spoke hesitantly. It seemed like he was too embarrassed to talk to me for a long time!

Only after he got the TV did he admit that he bought it for himself!

A TV for 430 yuan!

This would take ten months of saving without eating or drinking to buy this!

Not to mention that things are now in great demand and the price has risen to 450 yuan!

How could Li Xiangnan be worthy of such a valuable gift?

"I do not want!"

Li Xiangnan thought about how hard it was for these people to earn money, and immediately returned the big box in his arms to Ma Ying. He shook his head like a rattle and shouted, "No merit, no reward. I've made you all so tired by getting married. I can't repay this favor. It's too valuable! Good man, this is such an expensive thing, return it immediately!"

"Back off!"

Wang Defa jumped down the stairs and hurriedly grabbed his arm.

Ma Ying also stepped back hastily, shaking his hands as fast as he could, "We fought so hard to get this for you, you can't give it back! Just accept it, it's a token of our love! If you don't accept it, it will disappoint everyone!"

Cui Xingjian and his companions went down the stairs, took the big box, and pretended to tie a rope to the back seat of Xiao Li's bicycle with Sun Jie.

"That's right. This TV is a gift for your wedding! It's a token of our love! There's no reason for us to ask for something back once we give it away!" Cui Xingjian said with a pout.

Sun Jie said happily, "Xiao Li, don't feel burdened! This is all from us! If we share it among everyone, it won't cost much!"

"You guys got together?"

Li Xiangnan was even more surprised.

His eyes swept across these faces, feeling distressed, helpless, and even a little moved.

"Yes!" Ma Ying smiled at this time and said, "Xiao Wang, Xiao Cui, Xiao Yang, and Xiao Tao each contributed 85 yuan, and Xiao Sun and Dean Yao were both in a better condition, so they each contributed yuan. We have finally made up the total!"

Li Xiangnan was speechless and didn't know what to say.

But he also found that Ma Ying was not talking about himself!

He looked at Section Chief Ma with an aggressive look, feeling that the other party was deliberately ignoring his role.

Sun Jie was very perceptive and said, "Section Chief Ma actually contributed the most. He exchanged all the 80 kilograms of food coupons he saved this year for a TV ticket for you! Otherwise, we would have no place to spend our money!"

"..." Hearing this, Li Xiangnan felt as if his throat was blocked by cotton, and he couldn't express the gratitude in his heart no matter what.

"Hey, I have a classmate who works in a textile factory and lives in the same courtyard as me. He happened to be issued a TV ticket at the end of the year, but he couldn't use it! So I gave it to him instead! I have a small family and can't use up all those ration coupons! Isn't it just right to give it to you!"

Ma Ying scratched his head.

"Section Chief Ma..." Li Xiangnan opened his mouth, looked at him and his companions standing around, and was very moved. He felt a strong warmth flowing among everyone.

Getting married now is not the same as in the future!

When giving a gift money to a wedding, people with an average relationship would casually give three to five hundred yuan, while those with a better relationship would give one to two thousand yuan.

It is 79 now. What is given as a wedding gift?

Two cans of canned yellow peaches, two boxes of peach cakes, a large box of White Rabbit milk candy, a box of malted milk, and a box of milk powder, that's a huge favor to be given out!

Even if it's just giving money, two or three dollars, or three or five kilograms of food coupons, it means they really think highly of you!

The guys like Defa actually collected at least 70 yuan!

Two months’ salary for an average person!

This means that I work for free for two months out of a year, because I am working for Li Xiangnan!

How could he not be moved and touched by this!

Like Section Chief Ma, he actually took out the food coupons in his family to exchange for TV and plane tickets. Eighty kilograms of food coupons were enough for the whole family to eat for several months!

"Old Sun, have you made an appointment with the installer? When will he come to our house to install the electrical wiring?" Wang Defa saw that Li Xiangnan couldn't say a word for a long time, and knew that he was feeling "uncomfortable", so he quickly interrupted him.

"We've made an appointment. I've left my address. Come after lunch this afternoon!" Sun Jie called out.

"Let's go! We're the aircraft protection team, lead the way!" Wang Defa rang the bell, bringing Li Xiangnan back to his senses.

"Let's go! Let's go home. Your grandma is at home. She must be very happy! This TV is a rare thing!" Ma Ying pinched Li Xiangnan's shoulder and pulled him towards Nanluoguxiang.

"Chief Ma, thank you! And you too!"

Only then did Li Xiangnan utter a word of gratitude.

"Why are you thanking me?" Wang Defa waved his hands. "Don't be disgusted by me going to your house to watch TV every day!"

Cui Xingjian joked: "I think Xiao Li will definitely chase us away later! Xiao Qin is married, Xiao Li will be busy making a concubine! We will be chased away after watching the news broadcast!"

"Haha!" Everyone burst into laughter.

Yang Weidong enviously said, "Xiao Li, the policies and technology are so good now. You are the first one among our hospital employees to buy a TV! Ask Lao Cui and the others. Section Chief Ma doesn't even have one at home. It's so rare!"

Ma Ying pushed the cart and said with a smile: "Anyway, my home is close to Nanluoguxiang, so we can go there for a walk and see what the news broadcast says every day! Haha!"

Li Xiangnan couldn't help laughing and said, "Welcome to my house to watch TV. After all, this TV has a bit of the surname Ma in it!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing.

The group played and joked around, and had breakfast in Liangguochang Hutong. Then they headed to Nanluoguxiang in a mighty procession, with the TV in front of them.

It was only about 7:15, the time when the neighbors in the courtyard were getting up. Suddenly, they saw six or seven people guarding a large box into the yard, and they were all very curious.

Yuan Zhencheng, who was brushing his teeth at the door, spat out toothpaste foam and asked with a smile: "Doctor Li, what did you buy? Why is it wrapped in three layers inside and outside? Do you want to get these people to follow you? Is there gold?"

The neighbors in the front yard smiled when they heard this.

Wang Defa twisted his mouth and shouted, "Hey, that's more precious than gold! An advanced thing! Have you seen a black and white TV?"

"Is this true? Oh my god, Doctor Li bought a TV?"

This exclamation directly blew up the sky of the courtyard!

I could hear the sound of pots and pans colliding, the rapid stirring of enamel pots and toothbrushes, the dragging of cotton slippers, the clattering of tables and chairs, and the creaking of doors opening...

For a moment, the courtyard, which had been quiet early in the morning, seemed to come alive all of a sudden. It was immediately filled with noise and noise, and a huge crowd of people surrounded the aircraft protection team.
