Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Mid-Autumn Festival and Television (I)
The high school students were busy saving the world, so Gong Zhili slept until she was full before getting up.
I haven't had a nap in a long time. It's wonderful to feel so light all over after waking up.
Gong Zhili felt her steps were so light that they seemed to float as she walked. She hummed a song as she walked to the living room to check the height of the stone slab.
It has been sunny these days, and there is a constant draft in the living room, so the clay dries very quickly.
"We can start repairing the ground part tomorrow." After saying this, Gong Zhili looked up at the calendar on the cupboard.
She drew two circles around both today and tomorrow.
"Ah... Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival." Gong Zhili stood up and frowned in confusion. "Do we still have to work during Mid-Autumn Festival?"
She used to have the habit of celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival, but it was just having a big meal with her family in the evening and then watching the moon.
It seems like Neon is offering dumplings or something? The village chief did say that the villagers will make offerings tomorrow, so there shouldn't be any other activities, right?
But it seems that it is really not suitable to build a stove at home and get covered in dust.
Gong Zhili postponed her plan and went out for a walk.
The seeds in the vegetable garden have sprouted! Although not all of them have sprouted, they are already showing a pleasant green color.
She stood at the edge of the field, admiring the signs of life. Her two children squatted nearby and asked, "Is there any difference between the vegetables we grow ourselves and those sold at unmanned vegetable stalls?"
Gong Zhili thought of the bean sprouts she had soaked and said, "Vegetables grown by myself are healthier." Well, since they were all grown by myself, the power contained in them is different, so it's no problem to say "healthier".
Five o'clock the next morning.
Gong Zhili was awakened again by the rustling noise outside.
Because she took a nap yesterday, she went to bed very late at night. She was woken up at this moment and was very irritable.
The light outside was still dim, and only vague outlines could be seen.
"Are you thieves at my doorstep so early in the morning?" Gong Zhili, with her long hair loose and a nightgown on the inside and a coat wrapped around her outside, opened the west door. "What are you doing so early in the morning—"
She was interrupted by the big guy outside the door.
Gojo Satoru saw her come out and complained to Geto Suguru, "I told you to summon the Rainbow Dragon, otherwise how could you have woken her up? This is such a good surprise!"
Gong Zhili crossed his arms and asked, "What did you bring?" It was so big and covered with a cloth, it didn't look like a refrigerator or an air conditioner.
Glass asked Gojo Satoru: "Should we show it? It's already been discovered anyway."
She was very tired after carrying it all the way here with both hands, and now she just wanted Zhili to carry it into the house.
Gong Zhili did not disappoint her expectations. He raised his chin, and the weight on Gaozi's hand suddenly lightened.
Xia Yujie withdrew his hand and smiled through gritted teeth: "I just entered the village, and my cursed energy hasn't recovered yet. But you, Wu, are struggling to lift it. Didn't you eat?"
Gojo Satoru: "Isn't it normal that it's hard to use force on something this big?"
Gong Zhili ignored their bickering and walked into the house with Xiaozi. She put the thing in the living room and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Glass slumped down in his chair and said, "No, but I rode on Honglong to the village entrance early in the morning and got so wet from the wind that I almost felt full."
They didn't go to the directors' meeting yesterday afternoon. They kept chatting and didn't sleep until midnight. She couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep on the bed in the dormitory No. 5. She was woken up by two high school boys and went to the 24-hour shopping mall to buy gifts.
In fact, she was not sure whether the place was open 24 hours a day. It might be that Gojo broke it open with money. None of this mattered. What mattered was that she was really sleepy.
The two high-school boys finished their quarrel and walked back to the living room. One of them stood aside, tugging at a corner of the cloth, and said in unison: "This is a surprise prepared for you—"
The dark red fabric was lifted, revealing a 65-inch plasma TV inside.
Gong Zhili's pupils trembled: "TV?!"
This is such an unexpected surprise!
The expression on her face clearly pleased Gojo Satoru, the planner of this gift. "I've been wanting to say this before, but your place is too boring. There aren't any entertainment facilities. How can children not watch TV?"
Gong Zhili's expression turned subtle: the idea that children must watch TV was absolutely wrong in her family! When she was little, she had to fight with her parents to watch TV.
However, there was nothing interesting about the TV programs she watched at that time. After watching them a few times, she found that she still preferred reading books, any books would do. She also read a lot of online novels. Unfortunately, she has not had the opportunity to buy books since she came here. She just hopes that Mr. Kato's bookstore will open smoothly.
"There's still an antenna to install," said Xia Youjie. "Don't worry, we'll pay for the TV station subscription."
Gojo Satoru curled his lips: "This is digital TV, which is completely different from analog TV broadcasting!" He emphasized heavily, and then looked at Gong Zhili, as if waiting for her feedback.
Miyajiri tugged at his coat and hid a yawn with his hand. "Well...thank you so much, it's such a thoughtful and wonderful gift."
Gojo Satoru: "Right! Thank you, Master Gojo! So we are going to celebrate the festival at your place today."
Glass cast a questioning look: "Is today a holiday?"
Xia Yujie pointed to the calendar on the cupboard: "Today, which is circled, is the fifteenth night."
Gong Zhili expressed his approval of Gojo Satoru's ability to take advantage of the situation: Even if he had not planned to come to celebrate the festival at first, they can celebrate it together now.
She nodded: "Okay, you guys can play here, I'll go back to sleep." It was still early for her to get up!
Glass followed up: "Can there be another person on the bed? I'm not picky about places."
Gong Zhili looked at the dark circles under her eyes and said sympathetically, "Come on, I sleep in a double bed."
They went to catch up on some sleep together. Gojo was actually a little sleepy, but if her best friend hadn't told her she was sleepy, she could have held on. Wu: "Jie, are you sleepy?"
Geto Xiayou: "I'm not sleepy. Let's go and install the antenna."
Gojo Satoru: "..."
--
When Gong Zhili slept until her usual time to wake up, she got up and saw Gaozi lying beside her. She was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered what happened in the morning.
She got out of bed quietly and went out to wash up. When she passed the living room, she heard the faint sound of the TV.
This sound is really nostalgic.
As soon as she entered the living room, she was startled by the "two bodies" lying there.
Looking closely, I found that Gojo and Geto were sleeping in a crooked position leaning against the wall of the living room.
It's not difficult to guess what happened... Gouyu should have known that there was a folding bed in the utility room, but he refused to sleep on it and insisted on staying up late in the living room watching TV. It was probably out of a childish competitive mentality.
Gong Zhili walked around them and went about his own business.
As she brushed her teeth, she thought, the house is not empty now, it is full of people.
The author has something to say:

I thought about why I only started V now. First, it’s because of my update frequency, and second, it’s because of my writing rhythm. But it’s so hard to be a social animal. I really hope that I can win a 10 million jackpot with no side effects tomorrow without buying a lottery ticket, so that I can stay at home and write about what I like (I’m going to sleep now, and I’m going to dream about this tonight)
