Chapter 716: The Water Leaks
But whatever it is, if it makes her family happy, she's satisfied.
"TV is TV, head flower is head flower, and they will definitely be very happy when they receive the gift you brought back for them." Qu Guangming smiled and reassured.
When Grandma Li looked at Qu Guangming and looked at Li Ying, her eyes were full of tenderness, and her voice was unconsciously gentle, as if she was treating her daughter, and nodded very happily.
She felt that Li Ying had found a good object, and she would be able to rest assured in the future.
And because of the propaganda of Li Kang and others along the way, before they went to the captain's house to invite the electrician, there were many people at home, and their purpose was only one, to see what the TV looked like.
Of course, let's take a look at what the son-in-law in the city who can buy a TV for the Li family looks like, how can he be so rich?
Li Ying saw that Qu Guangming was surrounded by a group of men, women and children in the village, and looked very uncomfortable, and after smiling secretly, he helped to relieve the siege and said: "You go to the captain's house to see if my mother has found an electrician, and you can also help a little when the electricity is pulled." ”
"Okay, then I'll go first." Qu Guangming said as if relieved.
He still felt very uncomfortable being watched in the middle like a monkey by a group of people.
"Auntie, your grandson-in-law is really a talent, and you are really a good match for your Li Ying."
"That's it, you can buy a TV for your family when you meet for the first time, and then you get married, and when you wait for the next ceremony, maybe even the supply and marketing cooperatives can move you over, your family really found a good son-in-law."
"I said a long time ago that Li Yingchang's face is blessed, and the future will definitely be no worse, look, I'm not wrong."
A group of people thought that after the Li family was electrified, they would definitely put on the TV, so they didn't leave, just stayed at the Li family, ready to watch TV later.
Of course, during this period, the nice words kept coming out as if they didn't want money, and Grandma Li was overjoyed.
Because everyone is in a hurry to watch TV, when the electrician pulls the electricity, there is no need for the Li family to speak, and a group of people are supervising and helping behind, and the efficiency is much higher than before.
After Li Ying bought the light bulbs and sockets from the sales point in the brigade and installed them, everyone stuck their heads out and waited for the TV to be played.
The people standing outside even harder pressed the door into the house, for fear of missing a second.
And those who can't see it behind jump up and down, hoping to take a look when they jump to a high place.
Li Ying saw that there were so many people in the village, there were several floors inside and out, and there were no stays in the house at all, so he said to Li's mother: "Mother, why don't you watch TV in the yard, although it is cold, but then everyone can see it." ”
"It's so cold outside, what if the TV freezes over? I think it's better to put it in the house, and it's not good to freeze everyone outside? Mother Li said disagreeably.
"It's okay, it's okay, we're carrying the cold, not afraid of the cold."
"That's it, we're dressed thickly, you see I've been standing in your yard for two hours, and it's not as warm as ever."
In order to watch TV, a group of people also fought hard, even if they were shivering from the cold, they still pretended not to be cold and said.
"Mother, this TV is not human, it can't be frozen." Li Ying explained out loud.
Then she whispered to Li's mother: "So many people are waiting to watch TV, if you put it in the house, the number of people who come in is limited, so you can only let some people wait outside, take turns to watch, so that the time will be extended, and the electricity consumption will be much more, it is better to watch it outside together, if you are afraid of the cold, stay in the house with grandma, and wait for them to leave, let's move into the house again, warm and warm." ”
"Okay then, let's look outside." Just as Li Ying thought, Li's mother was very distressed about the electricity bill, so she nodded and agreed.
Then he asked Li Kang to move a table out of the house, put the TV in the yard, and everyone watched it together.
"Isn't this tunnel warfare? I've seen this film in the commune, and it's good. ”
"I've seen it, I've seen it, but I didn't expect this TV to really be like a movie, to see people."
As soon as Qu Guangming turned on the TV and saw that a movie was playing inside, everyone immediately talked about it.
Then, everyone's eyes were attracted by the TV in front of them, and they stretched out their heads and watched them with all their attention.
As time went by, more and more people gathered, and it didn't take long for the Li family's courtyard to be surrounded by water.
After waiting for more than an hour, it was dark for a while, and everyone remained where they were, unwilling to leave, and wanted to continue to see the others.
"Okay, okay, it's over, it's not too early, let's all go back and cook." Mother Li saw that a group of people were unwilling to leave, so she said out loud.
After watching it for so long, she didn't know how much electricity it consumed, and she was almost heartbroken, and now when she saw that the movie was over, she hurried to catch up.
For fear that something else would come out on the TV later, this group of people was even more reluctant to leave.
"Kang Kang, you just go cook, don't worry about us, just let us continue to watch, we old men, don't have to cook."
"That's it, don't worry, we won't eat at your house."
"Such a good-looking TV, what kind of food are you eating, I won't eat it tonight, just to save food."
Some people were reluctant to leave, so they spoke out one after another.
"Okay, it's so late, and I've been disturbing their house for so long, let's go back to their respective homes, the TV won't run with long legs, and I'll watch it again when I'm free in the future, the Li family still has guests." Although the captain was also a little reluctant to leave, he still stood up from the stool and said loudly.
"Alright then, damn Kangkang, we'll come back tomorrow morning."
"I'll come over tomorrow morning, I'll come as soon as I'm done with breakfast, Kang Kang's mother don't forget to move the TV out in advance."
Everyone said reluctantly.
"My family is going to catch up with the market tomorrow, and I'm not at home, so I'll watch it later when I have time." If it starts early tomorrow morning, these people may be able to see the night all the time, then her family really can't pay the electricity bill, so Mother Li can only refuse with a stiff smile.
"Your mother-in-law shouldn't go, as long as there are people in the house, we can watch it, you don't want everyone to see it, right?" Ding Fusheng's daughter-in-law Song Jin said loudly.
Although the two families don't deal with each other, their family is still cheeky to watch such a rare thing as watching TV.
"I won't let everyone see it, and it won't consume too much electricity, but my mother-in-law won't put it, so let's wait for us to come back from the market, and then let the light show it for everyone." Mother Li hated it so much, but it was not good to offend the people of a village, so she could only say it euphemistically.
"It's okay, when your son-in-law turned on the TV just now, I learned it, I'll just show it to everyone tomorrow." Ding Fusheng's son said cheekily.
"It's about to end the New Year, your family doesn't rush to buy New Year's goods, even if your family is not busy, the Li family has to prepare New Year's goods, how can I have time to watch TV for you every day, everyone is scattered."
The captain now puts the Li family in the first position in the village, so when he saw that Ding Fusheng's family wanted to embarrass the Li family, he said with a black face.
The captain said so, and they couldn't say it anymore, and a group of people could only reluctantly leave.
"If everyone comes every day in the future, they don't know how much electricity they will use, and if they knew this, it would be better not to have a TV." After everyone left, while cooking in the kitchen, Li's mother whispered to Li Ying.
"The TV belongs to our family, if you don't let them watch it, they can still rush to watch it, and this TV is a piece of Guangming's father-in-law's heart, if you let Guangming hear this, how sad it should be, if he doesn't buy anything for the family in the future, see how you regret it." Li Ying knew her mother's temper and had to follow it, so she said softly.
"I'm just talking to you, how can I talk to the light, I'm not stupid." Mother Li glared at Li Ying and muttered quietly.
"But when you went to college, there was no travel money, and many people in the village donated money, if you don't let them see it, maybe someone will scold us for being ungrateful, which is really embarrassing if we don't let us see it." Mother Li said worriedly again.
"In this case, then whoever watches it will let whoever pays for the electricity bill, and our family has such a precious TV, so there is no need to pay for electricity." Li Ying said with an idea.
"Neighbors, just watch a TV, how embarrassed to let people pay for electricity, and the length of time each person watches is different, and it is not easy to charge. Forget it and talk about it later. Mother Li sighed and said, and then began to continue cooking.
After eating, Li Kang wanted to watch TV again, plus there were more people this afternoon, and it was relatively cold outside, Grandma Li took a few glances and went back to the house, and didn't see it much, and Qu Guangming was also there, Mother Li was not too stingy, so she agreed to let everyone watch TV.
"Li Hua, you go to your Aunt Wang's house to see if they want to watch TV, if they want to watch it, just come over, but you must be careful, don't let others see it, otherwise, there will be people in the courtyard again."
The relationship between his family and the Wang family is good, they live close, and adding a few more people will not consume more electricity, so Li's mother is still very willing to invite their family to come over to watch TV together.
Moreover, with the father and son of the Wang family, it also saves Qu Guangming from being with a room of women and children, and he will feel uncomfortable.
The Wang family listened to Li Hua's words, and of course they were very willing.
His little grandson has been clamoring to go to Li's house to watch TV since he just finished eating, if it weren't for Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang feeling embarrassed, I'm afraid this child would have come over a long time ago.
However, in order to prevent the villagers from hearing the sound and running over, when they watched TV, they closed the doors and windows tightly, and the sound was not loud, watching TV like thieves.
Fortunately, they did, knowing that while they were watching TV, I don't know how many people from the village walked by in front of the gate.
