Chapter 235 Life at Home



In 1995, among the more than 200 households in the remote mountain village, only less than ten had televisions. Televisions have played a positive role in changing the cultural life of mountain villagers.

When he heard his second brother ask him to turn on the TV, Yuan Fangguo hurried into the main room and turned on the TV.

I originally wanted to buy a color TV, but because I bought so many things, there was no space to install a color TV, so I could only buy a larger black and white TV.

Yuan Fangguo twisted it a few times, and suddenly a human figure appeared on the snow screen.

Yuan Fangguo quickly shouted at his second brother outside the door, asking him to change direction continuously.

Following Yuan Fangguo's instructions, Yuan Fangtai constantly changed the position of the antenna pole, and finally found a suitable entry point at an appropriate location.

"Okay, here it is." Yuan Fangguo shouted quickly.

Yuan Fangtai immediately fixed the antenna pole in his hand firmly.

The phone picture was very clear.

Yuan Fangguo turned it around and the signals from the three TV stations he received were relatively clear.

"Grandma, you can watch TV from now on." Yuan Fangguo said to his grandma who was still knitting slippers under the eaves.

"Really?" Qin Mingzhen looked at him kindly.

"Come in and take a look." Yuan Fangguo said as he walked out and brought the fire bag in for grandma.

Journey to the West was playing on TV, and Qin Mingzhen was quickly attracted by this magical TV.

Even the fourth sister Yuan Fangan, who was doing homework in the room, ran out with three female classmates.

"What's that?" the four girls chattered.

"Sun Wukong." Qin Mingzhen said with a smile.

"That's Journey to the West." The four girls' attention was quickly attracted and they watched the TV intently.

At this time, Yuan Fangtai also dusted off his body and got down from the ladder. Looking at the extremely clear TV screen, he had a sense of accomplishment on his face.

In the evening, my parents and my third brother also returned home. My third brother was dirty all over. I guess he was playing with those naughty peers in the village again.

When Yuan Chengzhu saw Yuan Fangmin looking dirty, he became furious and scolded him without any hesitation.

"You should do your winter vacation homework like your fourth sister." Yuan Chengzhu said angrily.

Yuan Fangmin retorted, "I won't go to school until next semester, so I don't have any winter vacation homework this semester."

"Doesn't your son have any winter vacation homework?" Yuan Fangtai gave Yuan Fangmin a wicked smile.

Seeing this, Yuan Fangguo quickly said, "Second brother, you give that idiot Third brother homework. If he doesn't finish it, he's not allowed to go out and play."

"Second brother, did you hear that? Our eldest brother has given the order, bring your textbook."

"No, I didn't bring any."

"Haha, you really are determined to go all out." Yuan Fangtai couldn't help but pat Yuan Fangmin on the head. This third child was smart. It seemed that he had anticipated this day would come, so when he was expelled from school, he even threw away his textbooks.

"It's okay if you don't have it. Big brother will buy it for you. By the way, where is the 100 yuan I gave you yesterday? There should be at least 95 left, right?" Yuan Fangguo suddenly remembered that he had given the third brother 100 yuan yesterday.

Yuan Fangmin rolled his eyes and shook his head, "Brother, I don't have that much left. The bus fare back home was one yuan, I got hungry on the way and spent five yuan on food, and then I lost ten yuan."

"What kind of feast did you eat that cost 5 dollars?"

"Just go and eat what's delicious." Yuan Fangmin looked calm.

"How much is left?"

"Eight dollars."

"Tomorrow you go buy textbooks, and by the way, buy some extracurricular tutoring books and extracurricular books for Fourth Sister." Yuan Fangguo said with an ordering look on his face.

Yuan Fangmin sniffed his nose, which was red from the cold wind, then nodded, turned around and prepared to go back to the bedroom.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, something fell out from his waistband.

Brothers Yuan Fangguo and Yuan Fangtai took a closer look and saw that it was a black toy pistol.

Suddenly, Yuan Fangguo understood what was going on. The third brother must have used the money to buy a toy gun.

"I didn't buy it." Yuan Fangmin denied in panic.

Seeing that the third child was really scared, Yuan Fangguo couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Buy it, but don't lie. Buy all the textbooks tomorrow. The second child will give you homework. You must finish it before we leave. Otherwise, I will beat you up."

Yuan Fangmin nodded quickly. He had already tasted the slap from his eldest brother the night before. It was so damn powerful that he felt a little scared when he thought about it now. At that time, his eldest brother was like a crazy lion and made him afraid.

In the evening, we had the leftovers from lunch, plus a bowl of stewed pig's trotters with radish. Rural people are not picky, so after dinner, the whole family gathered together and watched TV with relish.

After watching for a few minutes, I saw two children running to the door, looking at the TV with eager faces.

These are the children from the neighbor's house. Yuan Chengzhu and Chen Yongying warmly invited the two children to come in and watch TV.

The two children were somewhat unfamiliar with Yuan Fangguo and Yuan Fangtai. After they came in, they still looked at the two brothers timidly.

"Da Zhuang, Er Zhuang, don't you know me?" Yuan Fangguo joked with the two children.

The two children shook their heads and looked at him timidly.

At this moment, there was a shouting voice outside the house. It was Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang's father calling them.

"They are watching TV at my house, brother, come and see too?" Yuan Fangan shouted.
