English materials are extremely scarce at present, and Tian Tian also wants them to listen to more English and know how authentic English is spoken, so that their oral English skills can be improved.
The radio was originally pieced together by Gu Zhao using various discarded materials during class. Although it was usable, it was indeed quite ugly.
Moreover, Tian Tian has been using it for so many years, and some of the radio functions are indeed not very easy to use, so she simply plans to buy a new one for the people in her family.
"You don't have to worry about that. He will definitely have it." He already has a TV and a washing machine. A mere radio must be sold out in their black market!
Long before, when Gu Zhao was still hanging around in the black market, they had no shortage of radios. Now that so many years have passed, they can’t lack them even more.
"Then please tell him for me that I am buying a radio for my family and ask him to keep one for me. You don't have to pay him. When buying things for the family, I have to pay for it." Tian Tian said.
Gu Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, I'll tell him when the time comes and ask him to give us a cheaper price!"
"Do you still want a watch? When you start working in the future, it will be inconvenient to buy a watch. Having a watch can also help you check the time, so that you don't end up being late for class!" Gu Zhao joked.
He just asked about the things his friend had here, and the prices were so low that he was tempted. If they didn't have to take the train back home after the Chinese New Year, Gu Zhao would even want to buy some more things here to take back.
Although it is convenient for him to buy things in the provincial capital, the prices are definitely not as low as here, and he doesn't even need a ticket.
"I want it!" Tian Tian nodded immediately.
She had wanted to buy a watch for a long time. The clocks in her space had been used for more than ten years, and now the hands were a little inaccurate. However, to buy a watch, she needed both an industrial ticket and a watch ticket.
Tiantian has no shortage of money, but tickets are really hard to get.
She had wanted Li Jiuniang to help her get tickets or a watch, but buying a watch required a lot of industrial tickets. But Tian Tian always felt unsafe when sending the tickets. She was also afraid that the watch would be lost or broken on the way.
In the end, I never told Li Jiuniang about this matter.
There are cheap watches now, and you can get them directly. If there is any problem with the watch, just tell people. Tian Tian will definitely not let it go.
"Do you want to talk to him now?" Tian Tian asked impatiently.
"No, I mainly came out to accompany you today. As for the matter of the watch and the radio, I can just find a time after the New Year to come and tell him. He has plenty of things here, and I can take the things home directly after telling him!" said Gu Zhao.
It's almost the New Year, and there are a lot of people coming to his place to get things. He is very busy, and Gu Zhao doesn't want to disturb them.
Tian Tian didn't urge Gu Zhao to speak after hearing this, but took Gu Zhao's hand and asked, "Where are we going this afternoon?"
"Let's go watch a movie! I see there are quite a few people outside the cinema!" said Gu Zhao.
It was Chinese New Year and the cinema was playing movies all day, so not too many people were waiting for the movie start time. They lined up early, and Tian Tian and Gu Zhao bought the movie tickets and went in to sit down and watch the movie.
It was very cold outside. Tian Tian and Gu Zhao didn't want to go out and freeze, so they watched a movie in the cinema for the whole afternoon.
Movies nowadays are really strange. The plots are obviously the same, but Tian Tian never gets tired of watching them no matter how many times she watches them. And it's not just a few movies, but all of them. Basically, it's a rotation of movies. She watches whichever one is her turn, and she enjoys watching them all.
When the last bus in the evening came, Gu Zhao and Tian Tian hurriedly took their things and rushed home.
The few days before the New Year were already extremely busy, with cleaning and making all kinds of delicious food. Now that Gu Zhao was here, Lin Meiyu prepared to make even more things to show her importance to Gu Zhao, so the day became even busier.
Only when he had time at night did Gu Zhao talk to Lin Meiyu about his marriage arrangements with Tian Tian.
The issue of Tian Tian's marriage has always been a big problem in Lin Meiyu's mind. It has almost become a concern for their whole family. When Lin Meiyu heard Gu Zhao take the initiative to talk about marriage, she was so happy.
But as the woman, Lin Meiyu said that she would be more reserved, so she asked Gu Zhao what the Gu family thought about their marriage.
Although Tian Tian said that Gu Zhao's family seemed to treat Tian Tian very well, Lin Meiyu still wanted to see the attitude of Gu Zhao's family. If Gu Zhao's family really cared about Tian Tian, Lin Meiyu would feel relieved.
If Gu Zhao's family was like Fang Siwen's parents, and refused to come and discuss the marriage, no matter how anxious Lin Meiyu was, she would never let Tian Tian marry him.
"My mother doesn't have time before the New Year. If you are willing, they will come to discuss our marriage with you after the New Year." Gu Zhao said.
His mother originally wanted to come with them, but when he left, Ge Huiyun had a bad cold and couldn't even get up from the kang.
Gu Xingshu said it would be better not to come here before the Chinese New Year, as it would not be nice to spend the Chinese New Year at someone else's place, so his family decided to wait until after the Chinese New Year to come here.
Lin Meiyu nodded after hearing this. "Tell me when your parents are going to come over. I will prepare some more things at home and entertain them well!"
"My dad and his family should be here on the fifth day of the New Year. Mom, you don't have to prepare anything. Just home-cooked meals will be fine. My parents are not picky about food!" said Gu Zhao.
Every time Lin Meiyu heard what Gu Zhao said next, she only heard Gu Zhao say that his in-laws would come on the fifth day of the New Year. She began to think silently in her heart about what to cook at that time.
That being said, she certainly can't just cook home-cooked meals, she must take it more seriously.
Before going to bed at night, Lin Meiyu pulled Tian Tian into the house after she finished washing up, and asked her, "Do you have any idea about getting married?"
"I don't have any ideas?" Tian Tian said.
"Have you two discussed marriage before?"
"We have discussed it. We are thinking of holding a wedding there this summer, but this place is considered a wedding party. Let's let you decide whether to hold this wedding party or not?"
"Of course we have to do it! When your brother got married, nothing was done. Think about all the gifts our family has paid out over the years. We may never get them back. We must have a big wedding this time, at least to get some of the gifts back!" Lin Meiyu said without hesitation.
After hearing this, Tian Tian felt that this idea was very simple and unpretentious, and it really convinced Tian Tian.
"I will be working in a high school in the provincial capital in the future, so I can come back during the winter and summer vacations, but he doesn't have so many holidays. We thought we could hold this wedding party before he comes home for work! And it can also help you." Tian Tian said.
This time, Gu Zhao’s holiday will last until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but they must go home a few days in advance.
