Susie followed into the house, found a pair of scissors, and when the arbor put down the cardboard box, she went over and cut the packing tape.

Then open the carton and you'll see white bubble wrap.

When the bubble wrap is opened, the TV inside is revealed.

Xu Laohan said: "This is not small. ”

Susie bought a 20-inch TV, which is big and thick, and to be honest, it's pretty heavy.

Qiao Mu and Xu Laohan took out the TV together and put it on the table.

Xu Laohan said: "How do you turn on this TV?" Can you see this? Like watching a movie? ”

Seeing Xu Laohan excitedly circling around the TV, Susie pursed her lips and smiled, the old man is really like a child sometimes.

She patiently explained to Xu Laohan, "I can't see it yet, I have to install the antenna first, and when the antenna is installed, I will tell you how to open it." ”

Qiao Mu opened the cardboard box with the antenna next to him, took out the manual and read it.

Susie handed the instruction manual of the TV to Xu Laohan, and went to the side of the arbor to read the installation instructions of the antenna.

Qiao Mu watched as he assembled the antenna with his hands.

Susie was beside her: "Let's be in this col, I'm afraid the signal is not good, where is this antenna frame suitable?" ”

Giethoorn is shaped like a sheep's horn, and the whole village is in a long and narrow gorge, so most of the houses are built against the mountain.

There is also a mountain behind the Xu family, Qiao Mu thought for a while, "I'm afraid that the antenna will be set up on the mountain." ”

He looked at the thread in the box, "The thread must be short, you have to buy the thread." ”

Susie said, "Then I'll go to the county to buy wire." She said and walked out.

Qiao Mu hurriedly followed, "I'll go with you." ”

The old lady looked at the backs of the two and smiled, how did she think these two people were a good match.

Qiao Mu first parked the tractor to the barnyard, walked to the side of the road and waited with Susie for a while, and then waited for a bus.

When they arrived at the county seat, the two found Wujiaohua Company and told the salesman that they wanted to buy antennas.

When the salesman heard that he was asking for a TV antenna, he was a little awe-inspired.

As far as he knows, there should be no more than ten television sets in the entire Sibei County.

There are two of the best rooms in the guest house of the county party committee, and there are also several leaders in the county, and he helped install and debug the antenna of one of them in the past.

The salesman searched for a long time in the counter, but he didn't find the antenna, and no one usually buys this thing, so he said: "I remember that there are still ones, you wait, I'll go to the back warehouse to adjust." ”

Susie and Qiao Mu waited for a while, and the salesman came over with a large roll of antennas, "How many meters do you want?" ”

Qiao Mu quickly estimated and said a number, and the salesman was a little surprised, "So much?" ”

Susie nodded, "We're afraid that the signal will not be good, so we're going to set up the antenna higher." ”

The salesman said: "There is a TV differential turntable in Huijiang City, and our county is connected to the signal from Huijiang City, we are actually very close to Huijiang City, but the mountain road is a little winding, so the signal is usually quite good." ”

The effect of debugging the leader last time was very good.

Susie said: "It's better to buy more, I'm afraid that if the signal is not good, then the TV will be bought in vain." ”

The salesman didn't say anything more, opened the ticket, Susie paid the money, Qiao Mu carried the coil, and the two took the bus back.

Qiao Mu is bent on installing the antenna today, so that Susie, the old lady and Xu Laohan can see the TV as soon as possible.

When he got home, he went up the back hill to see where the antenna was suitable.

The antenna can't be set up to the top of the mountain, even though the mountain is not high, but it is too far away.

Susie also stood by and watched, and she looked up to see a particularly tall tree not too far above, "Is it okay to erect it over there?" ”

Qiao Mu nodded, "It's good, it's tall enough, but I'm afraid that the branches and leaves on the top of the tree will have to be cut off a little." ”

He went back to the stove house and got a woodcutter, and then climbed up the hill.

Susie stood on the side and watched, grandma's side is not like the collective household side where you can go up the hill, this side is a bit steep, there is no road, and it is a little difficult to go up.

Qiao Mu stuck the woodcutter in his waist and climbed up with his hands and feet, Susie was a little worried, "You be careful, if it doesn't work, let's put it on the roof." ”

The arbor quickly climbed near the tree, and then quickly climbed the tree.

When he was about to climb to the top of the tree, the arbor stopped, rode on a tree, and began to cut off some of the branches and leaves.

Susie was looking up, and the old lady also came to the back, she saw Susie looking up and following up, and was startled when she saw it, "Oh, what are you doing when the arbor climbs so high, don't fall." ”

Qiao Mu said on it: "Auntie, it's okay, don't worry." ”

He quickly cut off some of the branches and leaves around the trunk, and Susie shouted below, "Alright, don't cut it." ”

If she cut it again, she was really worried that the arbor would cut off the tree that she was riding.

Qiao Mu pinned the machete to the waistband of his trousers again, and soon climbed down again.

The old lady and Susie went to the stove house to cook, and Qiao Mu found a wooden stick to fix the antenna on it, as long as the wooden stick was tied to the trunk, it was installed.

Susie came over to see him carrying the antenna and walked back, and hurriedly said: "Don't pretend now, there is nothing to see if you pretend, and you have to climb up and debug it at night." ”

Qiao Mu is what Susie said he listened, he nodded and put the antenna down.

In the afternoon, the old lady and Xu Laohan were restless around the TV.

After eating dinner, Qiao Mu saw that it was already six o'clock, and he said to Susie: "I'll go and install the wires, and there will be a signal at half past six in a while." ”

Susie nodded and brought out a canvas bag from the house, "The tools are all in there and hung around the neck to make it easy to climb trees." ”

"By the way, how do you get this antenna?"

Xu Laohan said beside him: "I'll just hand it up." ”

Zhao Tingting washed dishes in the stove house, and the rest of the people moved to the back of the house.

Qiao Mu climbed the mountain first with the antenna, and then Xu Laohan also climbed up.

Xu Laohan has been in the mountains all the year round, and Susie sees that he is agile, and he is not even lost to Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu climbed to the tree again, Xu Laohan lifted the antenna tied to the wooden pole, and as soon as Qiao Mu bent down, he caught it.

Next, several people could only look up, Qiao Mu first tied the antenna with a rope, and then nailed the wooden pole to the tree with a nail, seeing that the antenna was almost fixed, Susie looked at the following table, it was half past six, she walked into the house, "I'll go see if there is a signal." ”

Back in the house, turning on the TV and a snowflake, Susie walked to the window, pushed open the window behind the house and shouted, "No signal, the antenna turns." ”

Qiao Mu turned the antenna, and Susie looked back, and now it turned into colorful vertical stripes.

She shouted at the window again, "Turn again." ”

The arbor turned at an angle of about fifteen degrees.

Susie looked back and saw a circle, there were some color blocks in it, and there was still time, she shouted in surprise: "There is, there is a signal, adjust it a little more, it's not very clear." ”
