Chapter 273: Color TV (2)

After covering this plastic plate, Bao Qingtian on TV obviously has a black face, but he has become a flower face!

What is even more unacceptable is that the white-faced Zhanzhao, who is regarded as an idol by countless girls, has also turned into a flower face! There is also a thin Gongsun Ce, whose eyes are either red or blue, gloomy, like a ghost who has climbed up from hell.

Chunlan watched the "modified" color TV for two days, and couldn't stand the weird picture, so she tore off the plastic sheet and threw it into the garbage heap in a huff.

Zhenhua listened to his sister's meaning, smiled and said, "I understand your feelings, but my father definitely disagrees." Color TV, more than 2,000 yuan!"

Chunlan pouted: "Dad has said, wrap my lotus leaves in my rice dumplings, no matter how much the Wu family gives, he will not deduct a penny, and buy me a dowry." Anyway, it's for me, can't I call the shots?"

Zhenhua asked: "Wu Xuan's family, how much dowry do you plan to give?"

Wu Xuan said that his father's meaning was two thousand six hundred and eight. ”

"It's not much, your sister-in-law and I were three thousand eight hundred and eight years old. But also, your sister-in-law brought back 2,000 yuan in cash, and she also married a sewing machine, a sofa, and ......," Zhenhua said.

"I've calculated that the TV set is 2,000 yuan, and the rest will buy some small things, which is enough. Chunlan said.

"Let me ask Daddy for you. Zhenhua said.

Chunlan was happy, thanked her for her kindness, hugged her brother's arm and coquettishly, and couldn't wait to shout thank you to the lord Longen.

After dinner, Zhenhua chatted with his father and tentatively said what his sister meant.

"No, absolutely not!" Zhao Chenghai did not hesitate and refused.

Zhenhua smiled and said: "Dad, Chunlan is also obedient, she has earned thousands of dollars in two years of part-time work, and this time she can be regarded as finding a good in-law and giving you a long face." She doesn't have any other requirements, just a color TV, or just follow her wishes, right?"

"If I say no, I can't do it!" Zhao Chenghai straightened his face and told his son:

"The Wu family has a total of more than 2,000 yuan in dowry, how to buy a color TV? We have to prepare at least ten quilts for Chunlan, and each quilt is 100 yuan. There are also more than 300 sewing machines, and hundreds of bits and pieces, which are all destined to be accompanied. There are still a few tables of banquets at home, and the 'big gifts' and the return to the door are combined, about seven or eight tables of guests, which costs one or two thousand. If I buy a color TV again, don't I have to put two or three thousand yuan on it?"

Zhenhua thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Dad didn't deduct the Wu family's bride price this time, and he was already enlightened. But let him marry his daughter and pay for it, he definitely can't accept it. Even if the family has money, Dad won't agree!

Zhao Chenghai said again: "Children are not sensible, buy a color TV, can you become an immortal after watching it?"

Zhenhua smiled bitterly: "I'm just afraid that Chunlan will be unhappy." ”

Zhao Chenghai glared: "Don't worry about her!"

Chunlan was really unhappy, and very unhappy, and from then on she was sullen and rarely saw smiling faces. Especially when facing her father, Chunlan either hurriedly dodged, or lowered her head and remained silent, and did not speak if she could.

Zhenhua was worried that Chunlan would be in a bad mood and would cause trouble, so he discussed it with his mother.

Mother also sighed: "Alas, it stands to reason that Chunlan can't ask for a color TV, but what your father said also makes sense." On the day of Chunlan's wedding, dozens of relatives on our side also went to send relatives and dowries. At that time, dozens of people carried a TV set, and we didn't have any face. Changing to a black-and-white TV, you can save money to buy a sofa, buy a sewing machine, buy a few suitcases, and it seems that the dowry is more, which is also the explanation of our parents to the outside......"

Zhenhua smiled bitterly: "Mom and Dad want face, and Chunlan also wants face." However, Chunlan thinks that buying a color TV can catch up with the new trend, which is the most face-saving, and your idea is completely different. ”

The mother still sighed: "I can't say anything about your father, Chunlan, this girl is tough again, she told me last night that she is not getting married, let me go and withdraw from the marriage." If she gets married, let her be in charge of her own house and use the bride price money to buy a color TV!"

"Mom, don't worry, I'll persuade Dad and Chunlan again. Zhenhua said.

This is a crisis, and Zhenhua is worried that his father and sister will not give in, which will cause accidents.

However, Zhenhua's father didn't give an inch, and Chunlan was also determined to buy a color TV, otherwise she wouldn't marry.

Chunlan didn't speak all day, her father kept a straight face all day, and the atmosphere at home was very depressing.

Zhenhua's head is as big as a bucket, and he discussed with Yilan.

Yilan has the style of a general, she can afford to put it down, and said: "What's so troublesome about this? Since Chunlan insisted, she would rely on her." The girl who got married spilled the water, and Daddy is in charge of her now, will he be able to take care of her in a few months?"

"You're right, Yilan, go tell me about my father. Zhenhua suddenly remembered Xiulian.

That's how Xiulian is. Her marriage was forcibly decided by her parents. But after getting married, Xiulian just didn't go back to her parents' house, and his parents couldn't care about her anymore.

Dad's insistence is actually meaningless.

Zhuo Yilan said: "Now that your parents are still in charge, I can't dare to say it, lest they say that I can't wait to take power." ”

People who are daughters-in-law in the countryside also have many difficulties. The sister-in-law's marriage generally has no right to speak. Except, of course, for particularly strong sisters-in-law.

Zhenhua had no choice but to tell his father what Yilan meant.

Dad still shook his head: "This is not Chunlan's own business, it is a major event in our family." A tree lives a skin, a person lives a face, I can't let Chunlan get married, a bunch of relatives in the family send a dowry, just send a TV set!"

Zhenhua was silent, entangled for two days, and at Yilan's suggestion, went to find Wu Xuan's father.

The conflict at home can't be solved, so Zhenhua tries to start from the outside to see if he can resolve the crisis.

When Lao Wu saw Zhenhua coming, he was naturally polite and poured tea with cigarettes.

Zhenhua didn't hide it, and said directly: "Uncle Wu, Chunlan wants to buy a color TV as a dowry, but my father doesn't agree." In the past two days, Chunlan, the girl, has lost her temper at home. I'm just here to discuss, let Wu Xuan talk to Chunlan, and change to a black and white TV. ”

Lao Wu frowned slightly and said with a smile: "Chunlan...... I have already told Wu Xuan's mother that when the time comes, I will marry a color TV and not buy anything else. Wu Xuan's mother also asked her if she could call the shots, and she said...... She is in charge of her own business. ”

Zhenhua was surprised: "Chunlan said that?"

Lao Wu nodded: "Yes, Chunlan said so." ”

"I'll go home and ask again. Zhenhua smiled bitterly and said goodbye and went home.

Along the way, Zhenhua was thinking, Chunlan, this girl is also a little bolder, don't you know that her father is in charge? Chunlan, this girl, alas!

Back at home, Zhenhua discussed with his father: "Dad, I think it's better to forget it, Chunlan is such a tendon, let's not care about her, buy her a color TV, marry and pull it out!"

Zhao Chenghai had no room for negotiation, and glared: "If I say no, I can't do it!"

Zhenhua sighed: "But Chunlan has already told Wu Xuan's parents that she is in charge of her affairs, so she will buy a color TV!"

"What? This dead girl actually told someone!?" Zhao Chenghai was furious, waved his hand, and swept the teapot on the table to the ground!

Zhenhua hurriedly opened his hand to stop, but he was a step too late.

The teapot fell to the ground with a thud and shattered. Read the latest chapter of "Hidden Farmers in the Field Paw Book House" for free for the first time.
