1983 year

"Brother, a little to the left!"

"Brother, no, it's a little on the right, hurry up!"

With Cheng Jianghai, who was impatient and scratching his ears and cheeks, like a pendulum, he ran back and forth in the corridor, making a burst of rushing sounds.

Standing on the roof of the building, Cheng Jianghe was holding a long wooden pole, with a piece of antenna tied to the top, and with the instructions transmitted by Cheng Jianghai, he kept adjusting the direction, and his face was also eager.

It stands to reason that if the days are tight, who will have extra spare money at that time? The steamed bun can be eaten with spicy seeds, and it can be eaten beautifully for two days.

This year, the Cheng family and his wife, who were finally more relaxed, discussed for two nights with their fingers, and finally made up their minds and made a lot of extravagance.

As a result, the Cheng family has a 16-inch Venus brand TV.

It is not black and white, but under Cheng Jia'an's careful consideration, he gave a color one step at a time. Although Li Xiulan couldn't sleep for several nights, the smiling mouths of the whole family never closed.

That's because this color TV is the only one in the family area.

As Cheng Jia'an said that day, when he entered the city, the face and lining of the people in the city will gradually be there. Needless to say, there is no need to say much about it, and it is hanging in the household register.

This bright and unique "big color TV" is a proper "face" for people in the city. Now, there is a house, a complete set of furniture, and even a TV is settled.

What is not content, contentment is the happiest!

With the call of Cheng Jia'an debugging the TV in the back room, it was first transmitted to Li Xiulan who was standing in the outhouse, and then Li Xiulan passed the message to Cheng Jianghai who was waiting anxiously in the corridor, and Cheng Jianghai ran to the stairwell to pass it to Cheng Jianghe on the roof. Passing the word like a relay like this, he remotely controlled Cheng Jianghe, who was standing on the roof of the building at the moment and turning the TV antenna.

"A little to the left!" Cheng Jia'an spoke.

"Quick, your dad said a little to the left." Li Xiulan said to Cheng Jianghai, who was standing at the door, staring at her with burning eyes.

Cheng Jianghai let go of the girl, ran to the entrance of the building in two steps, and yelled at the sky: "Brother, Dad said, a little to the left!" ”

Although he couldn't see Cheng Jianghe's head, he could faintly hear the echo: "Oh, oh, what about this, is there one?" ”

Cheng Jianghai then ran back: "Mom, my brother asked if there is anything now?" ”

Li Xiulan anxiously rushed to Cheng Jia'an and asked, "Oh, my son asked, did you come out?" ”

Under the contemptuous eyes of his wife and the impatient urging, Cheng Jiaan was already sweating profusely.

These things with scientific and technological content are really a bit difficult for him to serve with clay legs, but he can't lose face in front of his wife and children.

So while carefully checking the manual, he was chattering with various knobs, but there was no ghost on the TV screen except for a snowflake. He scratched his head in confusion and said very puzzledly: "Still not, turn left and look!" ”

"Oh, really, why is it so troublesome to watch TV."

Li Xiulan patted her thigh, impatient, and waved her hand: "Jiang Hai, let your brother turn to the left again." ”

"Oh, oh, brother, Mom said you have to turn left."

"Oh, well, yes, now?"

The family tossed and choked over and over again, and finally the TV clicked, and the image flashed out reluctantly, Cheng Jia'an wiped the sweat on his head, and said weakly: "Alas, it's coming, let's see, isn't this there." ”

"Oh, there really is!"

Li Xiulan hurriedly stepped forward, happily looked at the images on the screen, stretched out her hand to touch but was reluctant to touch the rare look, and said happily: "Oh, it's good, our family can also watch TV." ”

"Ah, it's out, it's out!"

Cheng Jianghai rushed in excitedly, looked at the TV screen and screamed in surprise, and then asked his father anxiously with wide eyes: "Dad, how many TVs can we receive?" ”

"How many stations?"

Cheng Jia'an was stunned, lowered his head and studied the manual, then rotated the button, and muttered: "Don't worry, I'll take a look." ”

With Cheng Jia'an's movements, the TV kept switching pictures, and suddenly a touching tune came: ask the world, is this mountain the highest, or is there another high place higher than the sky......

"Wow!"

Cheng Jianghai on the side let out a strange scream, danced excitedly, and danced with his hands: "Don't move, don't move!" That's it, that's it, that's it! ”

This year, the well-known TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which was produced by Hong Kong TVB, was introduced to the mainland, which caused a sensational scene of thousands of empty alleys at that time, and was talked about.

This is Cheng Jianghai's favorite and most sought after TV series, in order to chase the drama, he followed his little friend's ass to rub the TV everywhere, so most of the toys in his hand were sent out, bribing those friends who have TVs at home.

Film and television are always a little infectious, which quickly planted a great martial arts dream in Cheng Jianghai's mind. I look forward to the day when I can be like Guo Jing, from an inconspicuous little person to a hero with peerless martial arts, and has swept the rivers and lakes since then.

For this reason, he endured the pain a lot, punched and kicked Xiao Shuya, and practiced "peerless" martial arts.

Li Xiulan, who had not watched the TV series on the side, stared at the TV in a daze and asked, "What is this?" ”

Cheng Jianghai's eyes never left the screen for a moment, and he chirped: "The Legend of the Condor Heroes, it's beautiful." ”

"Huh!"

Cheng Jia'an smiled at his wife and explained: "It's a Hong Kong martial arts movie, and children love to watch it." ”

Li Xiulan stared carefully for a while, looking at the swords and swords, fists and feet, and shook her eyes, so she pouted disdainfully and said: "I said, fight and kill, no wonder Jiang Hai is so happy." ”

Although she is not very interested in TV dramas, looking at the luxurious color TV in front of her, Li Xiulan still has an irrepressible excitement in her heart: "Hehe, his father, do you think we are entering a well-off society?" Look at it, we were the first people in the family home to buy a TV! ”

Seeing his wife's overjoyed appearance, Cheng Jia'an also looked proud, and said with a foil: "Hehe, it's okay to say so." ”

Li Xiulan took a step forward, gently stroked the portrait of Qiao Chunmei next to the TV, and said sadly: "But our mother didn't catch up, and she left before she could enjoy her happiness, and she only moved into the city for a few years." ”

Yes, less than two years have passed since Qiao Chunmei moved into the city, and she hasn't enjoyed the blessings brought by her eldest daughter, and the illness accumulated in the years of hardship suddenly broke out, and it didn't take long for her to die, which has also become a big regret in the hearts of the Cheng family and his wife.

Cheng Jia'an's expression darkened, he stepped forward and patted his wife's shoulder gently, and comforted: "Our mother was seventy-one when she left, which is considered a long life, which is also a blessing, don't be too sad." ”

Li Xiulan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and felt that this time was really not suitable for sentimentality, nodded and said with a smile: "Well, it's a blessing, it's a blessing, in the future, we have to continue this blessing!" ”

Cheng Jia'an smiled with relief and said, "It's not! ”

The couple who were full of joy and sorrow and the Cheng Jianghai who had long forgotten themselves seemed to have forgotten at the moment, and there was still an anxious Cheng Jianghe on the roof of the building.

Holding on to the mast for a long time to no avail, he really couldn't wait for any response, and yelled anxiously: "Is it out in the end, give me a sound......"

From this moment on, the Cheng family began to become lively.

After dinner, the upstairs and downstairs neighbors used the lame excuse of chatting to rub the TV.
