Chapter 312 Taking turns to visit
Qiao Mu first turned a little to the left and shouted: "Is the signal good or bad?"
Susie quickly looked back and said, "Oh no, turn to the other side."
Qiao Mu turned sideways again. Susie kept turning her head and staring at the TV, and suddenly shouted: "Okay, okay!"
The circle in the middle is particularly clear now and the color is very bright.
She shouted again, "Come down and be careful."
The old lady and old man Xu quickly walked into the house. When they reached the main room, they were dumbfounded when they saw the circles.
The old lady asked: "What is this acting for?"
Susie couldn't help it anymore and laughed, "Grandma, there is no TV at the moment. This seems to be a test signal."
Old Man Xu said: "There are still words on it, Huijiang City TV Station, and there is still time."
The old lady asked: "When will this show on TV?"
Su Qian knew that Old Man Xu wanted to go out and show off, and that was all he had fun with.
The old lady got up, fetched water, washed her feet and then went back to the house to sleep.
Old man Xu answered the questions again about how much a TV costs.
Susie also wanted to sleep. She went to the kitchen room to wash up and then came back and winked at Qiao Mu.
Old man Xu quickly agreed.
The old lady started to yawn at half past nine. She had always lived a very regular life and had to go to bed at half past nine.
After breakfast, everyone went to work.
Old man Xu was a little depressed. "I went to bed late and woke up early in the morning. I was a little sleepy. I wanted to sleep for a while but couldn't fall asleep."
Old man Xu nodded, "Well, as we get older, we really can't stay up late anymore."
Everyone watching the TV was shocked. Xu Chengcai’s father said: “Then it would cost us several thousand dollars?”
Alas, forget it, a few thousand dollars, I won't be able to afford it even if I work till the day I die.
Liu Hongying didn't even know what a TV was. When Xu Changgui shouted, she thought she was watching something exciting and hurried out.
Old man Xu was also a bit cautious. He first ran to Xu's house next door to chat with Xu Changgui. When he saw that the clock in the main room of Xu Changgui's house was almost seven o'clock, he stood up slowly and said, "I have to go home and watch TV. Sissi bought it from Hong Kong City
Come back with a color TV."
Several people moved to the next door and entered the yard when they heard the old lady's excited voice, "Yes, yes! Oh, this color TV is so beautiful!"
Xu Chengcai's father asked: "Uncle, how much does this TV cost?"
Xu Chengcai's father gave up in an instant. He couldn't afford even a few hundred yuan, let alone thousands. The family had saved more than a hundred yuan, which was reserved for Chengcai to find a wife.
Xu Changgui became interested, "Let's take a look."
If a few more people came, she would be too busy moving chairs and pouring tea.
Qiao Mu nodded towards her, Susie smiled and went back to the house with confidence.
The old lady also came in at this time, "From now on, no matter how good the TV is, if it doesn't go past ten o'clock, you must go to bed."
Then he got up and went to pour tea.
In the morning, Su Qian and Zhao Tingting were cooking porridge in the kitchen house. Qiao Mu came in carrying water. Su Qian asked him in a low voice, "When did you go to bed last night?"
The main room in the courtyard of the Xu family was suddenly filled with people, and everyone gathered around the TV set on the table to look at it.
Old man Xu smiled: "Okay, why not?"
It's much better than the black and white TV at my boss's house.
Xu Changgui was shocked, "TV?"
Old man Xu hurriedly entered the door and saw a man sitting upright on the TV screen, talking about something.
Someone shouted: "Uncle Xu, why doesn't this TV show movies?"
Qiao Mu turned around while pouring water and said, "I saw that there were no TV programs before I went to bed, probably around eleven o'clock."
Susie took the opportunity to say: "Grandpa, don't watch TV too late in the future. You have to go to bed when you should, otherwise your body will be damaged."
After so many years, Mr. Xu has developed his own biological clock and wakes up at five o'clock every morning.
If it was cheap, he would buy one and take it home to look at.
Old man Xu said: "I'll call Changgui to come and see."
Xu Changgui's youngest daughter-in-law Liu Li is an educated youth from the city. She has seen it several times in other people's homes before. She excitedly picked up her son and said, "Come on, let's watch TV."
Just as he finished speaking, Old Man Xu came in carrying a basket of firewood.
Susie went back into the house, closed the door, and went to bed.
Susie feels that people watching TV don't seem to care what TV program is playing, as long as there are images and sounds, they feel satisfied.
After pouring the tea, Susie quickly went out and closed the courtyard door.
The news ended shortly after, and then began to play a documentary recording wheat harvesting in the countryside.
Someone next to me interrupted, "What is the Hong Kong dollar?"
The villagers nearby were even more stunned, thousands of them!
That's a number they never dare to think about in their lifetime.
Old Man Xu's face glowed red and he said loudly: "There is no program now, it won't be until seven o'clock in the evening."
The sound of the TV kept coming, and Susie fell asleep in the sound.
I signaled him to turn off the TV for a while, but Grandpa seemed not to be able to turn it off yet.
He did not forget to shout into the room, "Hongying, go next door and watch TV."
Everyone talked for a while and watched the excitement for a while, then went home to eat.
Old Man Xu explained: "The money in Hong Kong City is much more valuable than our money."
Xu Changgui, Old Man Xu and Liu Li all couldn't help but talk about watching TV last night. Liu Li also emphasized again and again: "Color TV, it's a color TV, it's just like watching a movie." You must know that she has watched everything before.
It's a black and white TV.
Old man Xu nodded proudly.
This thing is a legend to him. He has heard of it, but has never seen it.
Susie smiled and asked: "Grandpa, did you sleep well last night?"
Everyone in the room was watching TV attentively. Even Xinyu, who was not yet four years old, did not cry or fuss. He sat obediently in Liu Li's arms with his big eyes unblinking.
Old man Xu smiled and said in a loud voice: "My granddaughter Xixi bought it in Hong Kong City for two thousand Hong Kong dollars!"
Everyone has seen the movie. Usually after the autumn harvest, the county cinema will organize staff to go to the countryside to show movies.
After work in the evening, another wave of people who got the news came to visit the house.
Old man Xu had his hands behind his back, followed by a string of tails.
Su Qian quickly moved chairs for Xu Changgui and the others to sit.
If anyone has a hundred yuan, they can walk around in the village.
Susie looked at her watch and said, "It's almost time. There should be TV at seven o'clock."
Everyone was excited when they heard that they could watch movies at home. They got off work at noon, and many people didn't go home and headed towards Xu's house.
Everyone gathered around the TV and watched and touched it. Some said, "Uncle Xu, would you like to come to your house to watch TV in the evening?"
When it was time to have dinner, almost every household in the village was talking about this matter at the dinner table.
Xu Chengcai's family is no exception. Chengcai's father said: "How can you make so much money as a government official? Old man Xu said that the TV set costs thousands!"
Xu Chengcai shook his head, "I heard it was all Su Zhiqing's money."
"It seems that there are some relatives of theirs in Hong Kong City who gave Su Zhiqing a lot of money."
