Mother's dedication to the family is no matter the cost, no matter how many things at home, no matter how heavy the work, she never opens her mouth to her father, who is always dressed in a straight tunic, neatly goes to work and gets off work, including how much selfless dedication of the mother, and deep love for the family.

Pay hard and pay richly, family harmony, husband and wife respect and love each other, decades as a day, never quarrel with each other, become a beautiful talk. The family is well-off, the clothes and food are obviously better than others, and the bicycles and televisions are the first to be purchased in the village.

The first time I saw TV in my memory was when I was seven or eight years old, it should have just been reformed and opened up, and it was purchased by the production brigade in the name of the collective. There are only black and white, and they are called black and white televisions. The black-and-white TV was small, nine or twelve, and I can't remember it now.

Anyway, it is very small, square, and the brigade has also specially made a TV cabinet, the feet of the cabinet are made quite high, and the TV is placed high in the top cabinet, so as to ensure that more people can see it. The brigade also specially designated someone to keep it, and it was usually locked as a treasure, and it was only opened when everyone came to see it.

When this black-and-white TV was first bought, it caused a sensation in the eight villages, and at night the villagers came home from working in the fields, and rushed to the brigade hall with small stools, and sat around to watch TV, which was more lively than watching a movie.

Some old people can't figure it out, how can there be so many things in a small box, how can someone move. I still remember that they curiously circled around the TV, trying to figure out if someone was hiding behind the show, and when they couldn't find it, they muttered, whispered, and sat down to watch.

The location of the brigade is in Shixiang, three or four miles away from our home, and it is also the location of our primary school. I can't remember how many times I took a small stool to watch the little black and white TV in the moonlight, and sometimes when it rained, I had to go all the way through the mud with an umbrella, and it was really rain or shine.

Three or four miles of road, half of the field is flat through, half is around the foot of a mountain, at the foot of the mountain is farmland on one side, on the other side is the slope of the dug road, there are ancient tombs dug out of the hillside, a hole is connected to a hole, ignorant childhood, when going to school together, there are often friends into it, showing off their bravery.

Maybe he was worried about our safety, maybe he was worried about our hard work, but it seemed that a year or two later, my father bought back a 14-inch black and white TV. Larger than the brigade's TV, it also seems to be the first in a nearby family to buy it.

Since then, at night, my house is full of neighbors watching TV, and villagers from several nearby villages don't have to go to the brigade to watch TV, the distance is much shorter, so they often gather together. It is quite a matter of pride, at a young age, vanity is most satisfied.

My parents were generous, and whenever I came to watch TV, they would warmly welcome them, and when the weather was good, my father would move the TV to the outside barnyard, which we called the "threshing field", which was specially developed for drying rice. The "harvest field" in front of the house and the door has become extremely lively because of this.

At that time, watching TV was not like now, now there are closed routes, and there are remote controls, there are many channels and rich programs, you can watch whichever station you want, you can watch which program you want, just lie on the sofa and use the remote control to control it.

If you want to watch a TV program, you first have to set up an antenna outside the house, which is specially made and bought back with the TV. In addition to the antennas outside the house, the TV itself also has two antennas on the roof.

The antenna outside the house is not feasible to be erected casually, and the angle must be adjusted. The built-in antenna can be retracted and rotated, and it should also be adjusted to the appropriate length and orientation. The two antennas work together to see a clear picture and hear a clear sound.

I don't know if it's because there are mountains in the mountains to obstruct or interfere, or because the signal itself is weak, often looking at it, there will be blurred pictures and unclear sounds, and in my impression, it is rare to be able to watch a night of TV completely and clearly.

Whenever this happens, you need to adjust the two antennas on the top of the machine, and be very careful when adjusting, because small differences in azimuth height may affect the strength of signal reception.

Because of frequent adjustments, the antenna on the top of the machine rotates loosely and cannot be fixed, and it is necessary to use something to help support and fix. The antenna is set in sections, because it is often stretched and adjusted, and it often falls off, and it has to be tied with tape to help tie it.

In most cases, adjusting the antenna on the top of the machine alone may not work, so you need to adjust the antenna outside the house. The antenna outside the house is erected with a slender bamboo pole, so the bamboo pole should be installed in a rotatable state, and when the signal reception is not good, it is convenient to rotate and adjust.

Sometimes this rotation adjustment is not enough, it is necessary to adjust the antenna on the top of the bamboo pole, the bamboo pole is too high and often has to climb with the help of a ladder, and then the TV set generally enters the ordinary family, and the antenna outside the house is often set up on the balcony outside the house, which is convenient for adjustment.

Black-and-white television sets have existed in the countryside for a long time, probably more than a decade, until the late nineties, when color television sets appeared, and closed-circuit television appeared. For more than a decade, rural families struggled with television signals.

Television reception signal,It is also related to the human body,Often the hand on the antenna on the picture is clear,In order to watch a program,Or to the wonderful place of TV,Rural families often have people willing to hold the antenna,Until the TV is finished。

The first TV that the family bought,The quality is quite good,Parents have moved several times,From Phoenix Mountain to Yuxia Middle School,And then to live in the county,It has never been left behind,I have always been able to watch programs。 It wasn't until a few years ago that I lent my aunt and children to play games, but they used it up and sold it as scrap.

At the beginning of the reform and opening up, the merchants were still very kind, and the quality of the things produced was good. A desktop electric fan, which was purchased almost at the same time as this black-and-white TV, has been used for a longer period of time, and it is still used by my parents, and the effect is still quite good.
