Chapter 382: Surprise
It's like a busy sound like a sudden short circuit in a high-voltage line, and the sound is not too loud, but it always gives people the illusion of tinnitus, which is very uncomfortable.
Wei Lan shuddered, and the goosebumps on his arms stood up under his clothes.
Rubbing it uncomfortably, Wei Lan poked his head into the room, "Brother Chao? What do you do? ”
There was a ping-pong sound in the room.
Wei Lan and Grandma Gu glanced at each other, got up and went to the house together.
Youlan didn't know why, so she followed her into the house.
Gu Chaogang pulled the electric switch, and he was in Wei Lan's room, holding scissors in his hands, stepping on a chair under his feet, and gesturing with a green line on the wall.
"Y-What are you doing?" Grandma Gu was shocked, this wire has just been brought back for less than a month, and it is about to be cut?
"Okay, if you don't use it, you won't use it, what are you going to do with it?"
Wei Lan's eyes were sharp, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw a big ass TV lying quietly on the bed.
"Ahh Wei Lan screamed excitedly, ran over in small steps, and touched the TV with her little hand, "Brother Chao, you bought the TV!" ”
Only then did Grandma Gu notice that there was a big iron bump on the bed, "TV? What is TV? ”
The ancestors of the Gu family have some money, and Grandma Gu is also a girl from a big family, she has worn gold and silver, and she has really not used electrical appliances much.
When the family pulled the wires to install the lights before, Grandma Gu said that she was afraid of wasting electricity, so she didn't let Youlan turn it on casually, but in fact, it was rare for a while in private.
When there is no one at home, Grandma Gu will also turn on the light from time to time, shaking her head left and right to stare at the light bulb.
I want to see how this lamp, which does not need kerosene or wax, is lit.
Grandma Gu hasn't figured it out yet, and there is another TV at home.
She approached the bed, next to Wei Lan and reached out to touch it on the TV.
The plates are neat, like an iron box on three sides, but the front is a gray glass screen, faintly reflecting the figure.
Grandma Gu twisted her eyebrows and squinted for a while, and couldn't help but turn around and take Wei Lan's hand and continue to ask: "Wei Lan, what is this, what is this TV for?" ”
The glass looks quite smooth, but it doesn't look like a mirror.
"Ah-TV, TV, TV, ......" Wei Lan came back from the surprise, thought for a while and then explained with a smile: "You can watch programs and listen to the news on TV!" ”
Afraid that Grandma Gu wouldn't understand, Wei Lan changed her mouth and changed her way: "Didn't someone sing on the stage in the old days?" It can also be seen on TV, but now that the times are changing, it is not singing, but more red stories about the expedition and the War of Resistance of our revolutionary comrades! ”
Wei Lan's words, Grandma Gu didn't believe it very much.
Grandma Gu's mouth pursed into a straight line, the wrinkles on her face trembled, and she turned her head to continue watching TV on the bed.
How big is the stage? Is this TV a little more?
Not to mention an adult who sings, even a child can't get in, how can the show be arranged?
Grandma Gu had doubts in her heart but didn't say anything, just watched Gu Chao and Wei Lan toss from the sidelines.
The TV is boxy, ginger shell, on the left is a 14-inch screen, and there are two rotatable buttons in the upper row on the right, one is to change the channel, the other is to pick the volume, and the bottom is the TV amplification device.
It's very old-fashioned.
Wei Lan stared at Gu Chao, knowing that this TV was definitely not cheap, and Grandma Gu was on the side, so Wei Lan didn't say much.
Gu Chao slowly groped for the physics book, basically knew how to connect the line, and was about to put down the scissors, Wei Lan suddenly said, "Are you planning to install the TV in my house?" ”
Gu Chao looked sideways at Wei Lan and nodded slightly.
Wei Lan was almost laughed at, but she puffed up a small face, got up, pulled Gu Chao from the chair, and pushed him towards the hall.
Wei Lan muttered in a low voice: "Usually Grandma and Youlan are afraid of disturbing me, so they don't come to my house easily, what do you pretend to be in my house?" I'm watching alone? ”
Gu Chao wanted to say that the TV was bought for you, but when he thought about it, he leaned over and held Wei Lan's little hand, "Then you say, what should I do?" ”
Wei Lan's peach blossom eyes turned, and her brain flashed.
"Let's decorate the house!" She trotted to the hall and gestured with her hand, "Isn't there a long table in the corner of your room that is empty and useless?" Moved over and put it against this wall, and when we turned around, the TV was placed here, and we sat on the bamboo bed. ”
Except for the educated youth who come back occasionally, there is no one else in the family, and they are not afraid of being seen.
And this way, everyone can watch TV without worrying about who is arguing.
Gu Chao bowed his head slightly, "Listen to you." ”
The wires in the hall were nailed a little high at the beginning, Gu Chao brought the ladder again, and as soon as he climbed up, Wei Lan came over to hold the ladder.
Wei Lan looked up at him, "The electric brakes have been pulled, right?" ”
"Pulled." Gu Chao held the scissors in his mouth, and the hook on the back of the small hammer in his hand neatly pulled out the nail.
He handed the hammer to Wei Lan and carefully cut the skin of the wire with scissors.
Gu Chao had already dealt with the skin at the top of the bolt wire, and when the two wires were connected together, Gu Chao was afraid that something would go wrong, so he took the physics textbook and read it for a long time before starting.
Although the textbook knowledge talks about the line, it is still a little troublesome to operate in reality.
Gu rolled towards the Adam's apple, and his heart was bottomless.
There was no kind of isolation tape wrapped around the wires at home, Gu Chao took it and went to pull the electric switch one after another, afraid that the leakage would hurt Wei Lan, so he asked Wei Lan to retreat a little farther before pushing the electric switch up.
The electric switch was pushed up without the uncomfortable sound of pulling it down.
Gu Chao stared at the terminal for a while, and when he saw that there was no spark, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Try turning on the lights in the hall and it will still come on.
Wei Lan blinked his eyes: "Brother Chao, is this done?" ”
"I don't know yet." Gu Chao said lightly, and sat down on the bamboo bed according to Wei Lan, "Just wait here, I'll try to move the table." ”
After all, he was afraid that Wei Lan would not be honest, so Gu Chao pulled down the electric switch again before leaving.
Still with a "hum" sound, Wei Lan shook it, looking at Gu Chao's back complainingly, her hair almost stood up.
Gu Chao turned around and disappeared, Wei Lan turned his head and glared at the electric gate with resentment.
Gu Chao quickly moved the long table, set it up according to the position Wei Lan said, and found a linen cloth to wipe the dust off before moving the TV.
Plug in the socket and turn it on again, Gu Chao studied how to turn it on, Wei Lan had already flipped through the manual, and accurately touched the button behind the TV, only to hear the sound of "stab".
The TV screen flickered, accompanied by an endless "stinging" sound, and the screen was full of snowflakes.
Gu Chao and Wei Lan were both stunned, and the two of them put their heads against their heads, studying the palm-sized manual.
Wei Lan patted his head and said, "I remembered!" You have to have an antenna to receive the signal! ”
Wei Lan has never experienced this time, but before the crossing, he watched a TV series in the seventies and eighties on TV, and it was mentioned that the TV reception signal in this era had to erect a long bamboo pole outside the door, and the top of the bamboo pole was tied to the antenna that received the signal.
