…
Zhao Mai and Wang Dahai were shocked in different ways, but it didn't matter, he wouldn't ask.
cough!
Wang Zhaozhao cleared her throat and began to introduce the device she had just used to make calls to her family - a mobile phone.
"No wonder you didn't come back for several months after you left, and there wasn't even a letter. Did you and Yanni and the others make this phone? It's amazing..."
After trying hard to digest it, Xie Ailian murmured.
Wang Zhaozhao shook his head. "It wasn't us who made it. We just contributed a little."
"If they contributed, then doesn't that mean you guys contributed too? Rounding it off, it's you who did it..."
"Grandma, this thing can't be rounded up, and you can't go out and talk about it."
Wang Zhaozhao corrected and reminded seriously.
Before Xie Ailian could react, Wang Dahai glared at her and nudged her with his elbow.
"I know! I don't like to brag anymore."
"My grandma is just very aware. Well, her awareness is getting higher and higher." Wang Zhaozhao immediately clapped her hands.
“Hehe!”
Xie Ailian snorted twice and curled her lips.
Wang Zhaozhao just smiled and continued, "By the end of the month at the latest, it will be announced that Beijing will have cellular network signals. There will be hundreds of trial spots available throughout the city, and those who are qualified can apply to purchase them.
By the end of the year at the latest, mobile signals will be available in several major cities across China, and those who have the conditions will be able to use their mobile phones... I believe that it won't be long before all the people in our country can use them."
It’s so beautiful just thinking about it.
Wang Sibing asked, "Niece, if that's what you said, can we also apply to purchase it and have priority to try it out?"
"Sure." Wang Zhaozhao nodded, then smiled slyly, "But, Fourth Uncle, you shouldn't apply..."
Wang Sibing: “……!”
"Isn't this a bit too much? Niece, your fourth uncle may disappoint you. I'm not that aware."
This mobile phone is so convenient, he can afford it...The only thing missing is his household registration, which is in Hebian Village.
Wang Zhaozhao bared his teeth and his eyes narrowed into a line with a smile.
"Fourth Uncle, I just took a breath, why did you say so much? Even bringing up enlightenment?"
"Um?"
"The senior leader of our research center is so kind that he can give one of us a relative's phone when we apply for a mobile phone for our spouse.
So, Fourth Uncle, don't apply for the subscription anymore and give the opportunity to others."
“…”
Wang Sibing was speechless for a moment, "You're breathing so hard!"
Everyone was shocked. How could such a good thing happen?
Wang Dahai suddenly sighed, "It's a pity that I can't go back to Hebian Village, otherwise..."
This really brings honor to the family. If I go back to Hebian Village, let alone burning paper and offering sacrifices at the graves, I can even open a clan temple to announce it to all the ancestors.
He was very careful, but because he thought of Zhao Mai's presence, he didn't say anything.
Zhao Mai didn't think too much about it. "Grandpa, since Comrade Xiao Wang didn't go home for the New Year last year and hasn't had a vacation for seven consecutive months, if you want to go back, I can make arrangements."
Ah...this?
"Don't bother, Comrade Xiao Zhao, we actually just came back from our hometown." Wang Sibing was sober and quickly answered for Wang Dahai.
He knew very well what his father wanted to do when he returned.
Asking them to arrange a trip back home just to worship their ancestors? This is too much, not to mention that Zhao Mai has to go along.
Wang Zhaozhao nodded. "Yes, that's fine. I don't know why we need guards, but I'll try not to run around so as not to increase your workload."
Zhao Mai misunderstood and explained, "Comrade Xiao Wang, you don't have to be like this. I was sent here to ensure your safety, not to restrict your freedom."
"I know, but I don't usually like to go out. Most of the time I stay at home reading and studying. Occasionally I go shopping with friends. Oh, and sometimes I go to the vegetable market with my grandma and the others."
"Well...anyway, just do what you normally do. Don't worry. If you go out, I won't follow you too closely and disturb you."
"good."
Wang Zhaozhao nodded, hesitated for a moment, and didn't say anything about Zhao Mai always using the word "you".
I feel that it will not only be useless, but will also cause people to have to explain themselves.
It's true that she doesn't like going out and spends most of her time studying at home.
Her friends are none other than Xu Yanni and others.
When it comes to friends, Xu Yanni is the same as her, but she has many relatives, including brothers and sisters, both close and distant.
There are also some relatives...
Oh, she only cares about the ones she is close to, most of the others are not close to her, and there are only a few who are okay.
So, just one day later, Wang Zhaozhao's phone rang again.
Xu Yanni asked her to go shopping, mainly because she knew about a very popular cold drink shop and wanted to make an appointment there.
Wang Zhaozhao readily agreed.
She was still very interested in eating delicious food, and she also wanted to buy something.
Before leaving, she rejected Zhao Mai's offer to drive.
Going shopping in a jeep? That's too ostentatious.
The combined use of buses and subways is super convenient.
When Xu Yanni and Wang Zhaozhao arrived at the agreed location, they even spoke on the phone.
It attracted a lot of attention.
"I also made an appointment with Peipei and Zhao Shinan, but Zhao Shinan has to go to work, so Peipei is free." Xu Yanni said as soon as they met.
"Well, I haven't seen her for a long time. I miss her a lot."
"When everyone has a mobile phone, it will be easier to communicate."
"Haha, yes."
Wang Zhaozhao laughed.
Come to think of it, they themselves are also talking about their phones every three sentences.
After a few minutes, Chen Pei arrived. The three of them hugged each other excitedly and almost cried with joy.
Along the way, the chattering never stopped.
After arriving at the restaurant, we found a seat and put our heads together to study the menu and discuss what to order.
Wang Zhaozhao noticed that Zhao Mai and a male comrade came in a few steps late and tried to choose a seat closer to their table.
It feels strange and difficult for others...
"I want this angular salty ice." Xu Yanni made her choice.
"Then I want yogurt and ice jelly." Wang Zhaozhao pointed out two items on the menu.
"I'm going to have some shaved ice. Hehe, it's better to order different ones so we can share." Chen Pei said happily.
Eating ice cream and chatting casually is very pleasant.
However, Wang Zhaozhao discussed with them that they would not go to clothing stores or bookstores today...
Xu Yanni and Chen Pei, "So, what are we shopping for?"
"Do you know where there's an electronics market?"
"Clam?"
