"Speaking of this, go home, I have something to give you." When Sikong Ling heard Chen Xi's words, he suddenly remembered that the Chen family's financial situation was not very good now.
As a son-in-law living with the Chen family, I should also contribute a little.
"What is it?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"Something you will like." Sikong Ling chose to remain mysterious.
Chen Xi looked at Sikong Ling with a troubled expression, "What's going on? You're so mysterious."
Although he said this, his body still followed honestly.
There was no way, she was really curious.
During the process, I also thought about what it could be. After thinking about it, I came up with a possibility. Could the other party want to give me a passbook?
According to Sikong Ling's personality, it is most likely a passbook.
"Oh? Old man, is this a TV? The kind that you can watch movies at home?" As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard his grandmother's voice coming from inside. Chen Xi's smile froze on his face instantly.
TV set?
What did she hear?
"A Ling is a filial son. He insisted on getting us a TV, saying that we two old ladies and an old man were bored at home." Grandpa said this, but the laughter after he finished speaking was obviously very hearty.
"You must be kidding! What kind of fate does that woman Chen Xi have? How could she marry such a good man?" Chen Wei's sarcastic voice came.
Chen Xi couldn't help but clench his fists, and he felt like hitting someone.
However, just as Chen Wei finished speaking, he heard his screams. It was obvious that someone inside was teaching him a lesson.
"Wow, this son-in-law is rich! This thing is so valuable! He also wants a TV and plane tickets. He is so awesome!" Chen Dashan's voice came from the house.
"Let me turn on the power and see." Liu Qinglan said quickly.
The whole family was busy and having fun inside.
"It seems that I can't hide it anymore. I'll go inside to help them install the antenna and adjust the channel." Sikong Ling didn't expect that the surprise he gave would be exposed as soon as he arrived at the door of his house.
"Wait, how much did you pay for this TV?" Chen Xi was shocked when he heard the conversation. He then looked at the TV in his space mall that was priced at two hundred yuan. He had paid three hundred and fifty yuan to He Xiuzhi when he sold it to him today.
So where did Sikong Ling buy this TV? How much did it cost?
"It's not expensive. I just happened to have a TV ticket I got from my last mission. My grandparents are getting old, so I thought of buying them one. Four hundred and fifty, a domestically made one." Sikong Ling knew that he couldn't hide the price of the TV, but he bought it to entertain her. He heard that during the late stages of pregnancy, she could ask for leave from the factory, so he was worried that she would be bored staying at home, so he went to buy her one.
"Sikong Ling, how much money do you have?" Chen Xi's mind exploded when he heard the number.
He took a deep breath and asked Sikong Ling seriously.
Sikong Ling was stunned. "Um... Actually, besides the TV, I also plan to hand over my savings in my bankbook when I get home. Honey, are you... angry? Are you blaming me for buying such an expensive TV without discussing it with you?"
Sikong Ling thought he knew Chen Xi very well. This guy would only call him by his full name when he was angry.
Sikong Ling's wife's anger disappeared when she shouted, "Can this TV be returned? Go and see if this TV can be used first! It would be a disaster if it can't be used after you buy it." Many TVs on the market are damaged due to transportation and other problems. Once damaged, they cannot be used after you buy them.
If it can't even be opened, it will become a decoration.
After hearing what Chen Xi said, Sikong Ling thought it was right and hurried in to help fix the TV.
After connecting the antenna and other devices according to the method taught by the supply and marketing cooperative clerk, the family turned on the TV with anticipation.
Then……
After a burst of screen noise, the TV went dark.
The whole family looked unhappy.
"No way! Such an expensive thing is broken!" Chen Wei said exaggeratedly, and then looked at Sikong Ling with a gloating look in his eyes.
Chen Xi glared at him.
Chen Wei immediately stopped talking and shut up.
A good man does not fight with a woman. What's more, Chen Xi's parents at home are protecting him like they are possessed by ghosts. It is better for him, a disgusting person like him, to stop trying to make a name for himself.
Only by pleasing Chen Xi can you have a good life.
In fact, Chen Wei’s awareness was not that high at first. He thought at the beginning that if his father was possessed by a ghost, it was impossible that his mother who loved him the most would also be possessed by a ghost, right?
So when he came back, he hugged his mother's legs and started complaining.
After successfully removing two big bumps from his head, he clearly realized that his current position in this family was even worse than that of a marginal person.
It was in vain that he heard that he could return to the city as long as he crippled himself, so he broke his leg.
I never thought that although I came back, the good days would never come back.
It would be better to stay in the countryside with Chen Yao!
At least Chen Yao can still rely on his pretty face to get free food and drinks in the village, and sometimes he can even share some with his younger brother.
Life is not that difficult.
It’s really impossible to come back now!
"Keep all these invoices, okay? You can exchange them." Liu Qinglan is quite experienced in this regard.
She used to go to the supply and marketing cooperative often.
As long as the invoice is there, the item can be exchanged if it is not good.
"Mom is right. We should change it as soon as possible." Chen Xi quickly packed up the TV, packed it into a box, and handed it to Sikong Ling.
Sikong Ling thought it would be a shame not to be able to use the four hundred yuan, so he quickly carried the box and went out.
The supply and marketing cooperative was not far from where they lived, about ten minutes away.
Sikong Ling was running over with something in his arms, so his speed was pretty good.
He came back in less than half an hour, but he didn't bring the new TV, he just got back the money and the TV ticket.
"The supply and marketing cooperative said they only had this one TV set and it would take them half a year to sell one, so they sold it to me without even checking whether it was good or bad. They said they would put up a sign to notify everyone to buy it once their new TV set arrived." Not many people own TV sets, so it would be reasonable to sell only one in half a year.
In fact, if possible, they would rather sell the TV without tickets.
It’s a pity that in this era where tickets are more important than money, you can’t take a single step without tickets.
"That's not bad." Chen Xi nodded. She was already very satisfied to get the money back.
He took the money from Sikong Ling's hand and put it into his pocket. In fact, he used the pocket to stuff it into the space.
It is safest to keep this kind of property in space.
"I'm sorry, Grandpa and Grandma, I disappoint you..." Sikong Ling apologized to the elders with an apologetic look on his face.
