125. Television
As night falls, the lights come on.
The night view here in Yangcheng is good, not to mention the neon brightness, but at a glance, there are lights everywhere, and there will be no dark and gloomy feeling.
And the citizens seem to be bolder, the current law and order here is impossible to be good, but there are really a lot of pedestrians on the streets.
Guo Yongkun carried a bag and gifts, all the way along the main road, groping to the destination of this trip.
Maple Hill Community.
A semi-new residential area, which is better than the happy community where his home is located, is also a tube building, with five floors.
The neighborhood is more lively than the streets outside, and the people here seem to be more accustomed to coming out at night, so it's no wonder that it will become the first city that never sleeps in China.
There are uncles and aunts chatting together, and the bear children are playing in groups of three or five, and the living atmosphere is very strong.
Ouyang's house is in the 13th building, and Guo Yongkun took advantage of the light of the dim street lamp to look for the door number.
It's even more lively when you're close to the bottom floor.
A large group of people were sitting on small horses, watching TV in front of a house on the first floor.
The same 9-inch black-and-white TV as Uncle Hao's house, with a broken desk underneath and a small square coffee table on it, is placed high.
There are too many main audiences, Wuyangyang, Guo Yongkun estimates that half of the people in the building have arrived, and the people behind them can't see it at all.
A series was playing on TV, and Guo Yongkun fixed his eyes and was also a little interested.
The main TV series is too popular, and after the introduction of CCTV, it can really be described as an empty alley.
The plot is super sadistic and sensational, so that the Chinese people who are used to the template of the model drama are almost immune.
The beautiful heroine and handsome male protagonist in it have also become popular in China and have become household names.
This TV series is "Blood Suspicion".
If Guo Yongkun remembers correctly, Hedong was introduced relatively early, just this summer.
"Woo woo woo ......"
Guo Yongkun was also drunk, and the small TV screen covered with snowflakes really made the audience involved in it, and many people wiped their tears while watching.
Of course, it's none of his business.
His goal was the third floor.
Just as he was about to walk through the crowd, a shout made him pause again.
"Ouyang, you kid lower your head, I can't even look at it!"
"Blame me, who made you so short?"
"Then let's switch places. ”
"Don't even think about it. I'll finish a bowl of rice in ten seconds, and I'll give it to you?"
"Okay, okay, you two boys, don't argue, I can't hear the sound......"
Although they speak Cantonese, Guo Yongkun has traveled from south to north in his previous life, and he can still understand it.
His gaze instantly fixed on the young man who was called "Ouyang".
You must know that Ouyang's compound surname is extremely rare, and often you can't find two households in a city, let alone a building?
He could almost conclude that this tall boy was Ouyang Xiao's junior, and it was very likely that he was his son.
The main Ouyang Xiao is how old he is, Guo Yongkun also doesn't know.
There was also a middle-aged woman sitting next to the young man, holding his hand at the moment, signaling him not to make noise.
More than ninety percent of the people who can behave so intimately are his mother, and more than eighty percent are Ouyang Xiao's wives.
It doesn't take any effort to get there, and you don't even have to enter the house.
It's just that seeing them so fascinated, Guo Yongkun hesitated and didn't want to come forward to disturb.
In case it delays their elegance and leaves a bad impression, it is better not to come this time.
So I had no choice but to retreat, to the wall of another building, to hide in the darkness, to light a cigarette, and to wait patiently.
Anyway, everyone was fully engaged, and no one paid attention to him.
Guo Yongkun originally thought that he would have to wait for a while, because it was still early, and the TV series should generally just start playing.
But before I finished a cigarette, the TV suddenly went black.
It's not a power outage.
So if it's not broken, someone has unplugged the power strip.
No one was next to the TV that touched it.
The scene was suddenly noisy.
"Lao Chen, why don't you put the TV on?"
"That's right, Lao Chen, it's gone!"
"Hurry up and get it!"
Many people were already anxious to stand up.
It's exciting to watch!
At this time, from the porter behind the TV, a middle-aged man with kind eyebrows walked out, and said with an embarrassed smile: "I'm really sorry everyone, my sister-in-law came over just now and said that something happened to my mother-in-law's family, let's go over immediately, I can't see it today." ”
"Huh?"
"Lao Chen, then you go, leave the TV for us to see first!"
"That's it, Lao Chen, hurry up and open it!"
"This ......" Lao Chen was puzzled for a while: "But we may not come back tonight." ”
"That's fine, you lock the door, I'll take the TV to my house later, and I'll move back when you get back." ”
Lao Chen scratched his head and thought about it, it seemed that this was okay.
Seeing that he didn't object, everyone hurriedly plugged in the wires.
"Ouyang, you go!" an adult instructed.
Because among the group of bear children on the scene, Ouyang was the largest.
"Okay!"
He smiled, his heart was tickled by the plot, for fear of delay, as soon as he heard this, he rushed to the house, but he just arrived at the door......
"What are you doing?!"
An unceremonious female voice came.
"Plug in the wire. ”
"Who told you to plug it?!"
"They ......"
"They told you to plug it in, did I agree?"
Ouyang was scolded speechlessly, and tears rushed out.
"Qiu Zhen, you...... If you have something to say, why are you scolding children?"
Lao Chen was a good person, stepped forward and patted Ouyang on the shoulder, signaling him to hurry up.
"What's wrong with me scolding two sentences, the child is disobedient, and he can't be taught? You still have the face to say, think about it yourself, after buying a TV at home, what has become of it, every day at the door is like singing a big opera, do I buy a TV for myself, or for others to see?!"
Lao Chen's daughter-in-law is obviously not a good-tempered person, and this breath is estimated to have been held back for a while, and today happened to be in an emergency situation at home, and it completely broke out.
"Why can't we get our own TV back, there is such a truth in the world?"
When the neighbors heard this, although they were not very comfortable, they could not say anything, so they shook their heads, picked up their horses and scattered.
"Okay, okay, stop crying. ”
Ouyang Xiao and his daughter-in-law kept comforting their son, and they were also uncomfortable.
If you don't show it, you won't see it, what kind of anger will you make with his son?
If this were something else, she would definitely have to quarrel with the other party, but there was no way about it, they were indeed stained with other people's light.
"Mom, let's buy a TV at home, I won't come to her house to watch it in the future!"
Children's hearts are actually quite sensitive, and adults usually have something to do, and the interval time has passed, but children may remember it for a lifetime.
"Okay, okay, when your dad comes back, I'll discuss it with him. ”
Although Ouyang Xiao and his daughter-in-law said this, there was obviously some bitterness on her face.
She doesn't have a job, only with her husband's salary of dozens of yuan a month, except for subsidizing the family, there is nothing left, how can she have spare money to buy such a big TV set?
If he really had money, he wouldn't have been looking for research funds outside since the end of last year.
And the conversation between the two, including the expressions on their faces, Guo Yongkun saw it all in his eyes through the light spilled from the building.
Seeing them walk into the corridor with the little Mazha, Guo Yongkun thought about it and didn't follow.
He came here today to find an advantage from the rear, and it was obvious that the Ouyang family lacked a TV.
You said that he would send a TV to the door now, don't mention it first, does that kid Ouyang want it?
He was also twelve or thirteen years old, somewhat assertive, and judging by his mother's love for him, he should still have a certain say in the family.
Guo Yongkun felt that this was a good opportunity, and the gifts in his hand were a stepping stone, and he didn't expect them to achieve any purpose, and the amount was not enough.
And a television set ...... It's more appropriate.
It also happens to be a bit of a charcoal in the snow.
Just in his heart!
......
After returning to the hotel, Guo Yongkun washed an apple and sat on the edge of the bed with a low brow and pondered while nibbling on it.
After all, the TV set in these years is not something that can be bought if you buy it, you must first have bills, and then talk about money.
Naturally, he was not short of money.
But who would bring a TV ticket on a business trip?
Besides, you can't use it if you bring it, and the food stamps are available throughout the country, but there is no such thing.
So where do you have to go to get one.
If this is okay to say in Hedong, don't mention the ghost brother, he himself arranged for the prince to force them to collect it, and he will definitely be able to receive it.
It's nothing more than a matter of more money and less money.
But here in Yangcheng, the main people are not familiar with the place.
"This side of Yangcheng...... There must already be a cabaret, right?"
Suddenly, Guo Yongkun's eyes lit up.
He remembered reading a report before that after the reform and opening up, probably in 1979, the first music café in the country appeared in Yangcheng.
In fact, it's a dance hall, with a different name.
And this kind of land is mixed with fish and eyes, and it is a gathering place for local snakes, as long as you can find this kind of person, you are not afraid of not being able to get a TV ticket.
There are natural risks, not to mention anything else, even if it is not safe to go out at night, but the risks and benefits are always proportional.
People who mix in the mall, if they are afraid of taking risks, it is better not to mix.
Thinking about it, Guo Yongkun ran downstairs to the front desk and borrowed a sewing kit.
When he returned to his room, he took out a black jacket from his canvas bag and began to tear his clothes.
Since he was going to a dance hall, it was not appropriate to carry a backpack, and he definitely had to carry the money with him.
It took more than half an hour to sew 20,000 yuan into the inner lining of the jacket, and after wearing it, the waist circumference was larger.
Fortunately, he has a good figure, and at first glance, as long as he doesn't reach out to touch it, he can't see anything greasy.
After waiting in front of the hotel for several minutes, I finally stopped a taxi.
There is no mistake
