In the afternoon, under Du Bin's leadership, Du Chen paid for three computers. As for why it was under Du Bin's leadership, it was because Du Chen knew nine out of ten things about computers and knew nothing about them.
In his previous life, Du Chen was a good boy when he was in school. He would go to the Internet cafe at most, so he didn't know much about computers. When he grew up and had more freedom, everyone started using smartphones, and the time spent on computers became less, so Du Chen really didn't study the configuration of computers. Moreover, in Du Chen's opinion, today's computers are completely boring.
For Du Chen, today's computers and the Internet are slow and have low configuration. If he wants to watch a movie, it is not available online and he can only download it. As for the download speed, the speed is so slow that Du Chen really can't accept it.
Du Bin also enthusiastically plunged into the computer and electrical appliance mall, and he was so happy that he was like a fish swimming in water. In the end, according to Du Bin's suggestion, he configured three computers, each costing 8,800 yuan.
On the way home, Du Bin was holding a large monitor with a cathode ray tube and grinning foolishly. Du Chen looked at the grinning Du Bin through the rearview mirror and curled his lips with disdain. In his opinion, today's computers are completely useless. They are only good for playing Red Alert and Counter-Strike, or Minesweeper and Spider Solitaire, but they are useless for other games, and the screen is so small.
"Chenchen, didn't you order two computer desks from the furniture store? Why did you buy three computers?"
Ding Miaomiao didn't want to pay attention to Du Bin who was grinning like a pervert, so she asked Du Chen who was driving.
"There are two in the living area and one in the optical shop. My mom and your mom can use the computers when they have nothing to do, so they don't get bored sitting there all day."
"My mom and the others are playing on the computer? Is that acceptable?"
Ding Miaomiao was curious whether the two hostesses could accept computers. After all, computers were quite troublesome for most people in this era.
"Why not? If you can't play anything else, you can play Poker Solitaire, right? Or there's Connect the Dots, or standalone Landlords. You can play all of those."
"Oh, I just don't know if they like playing."
Ding Miaomiao is skeptical about this.
However, Du Chen knew that the favorite games of middle-aged women were games like Connect the Dots and Zuma, because he had personally experienced when Ren Surong was obsessed with those games. She would forget to eat and sleep day by day, and she would think about playing games every day. Later, she became addicted to "Everyone Stealing Vegetables" even more than square dancing.
When they returned to the eyewear store, it was already dark. The three of them walked in one after another.
"Second brother, come here!"
As soon as they entered the eyewear store, Ren Surong called Du Chen over.
"Mom, what's wrong? What happened?"
Du Chen had some guesses in his mind, but he still asked his mother.
"I heard from your dad that you're planning to clean up the small western-style building in the living area?"
"Yeah, that's right. Sooner or later, I'll have to use that place. I might as well decorate it now to get rid of the smell so I can move in directly later."
"Really? I heard from your dad that you wanted to spend the New Year in the living area, right?"
"Yes, that's right, Mom. I grew up in the residential area. If I had the time to go back to the residential area for the New Year, I would definitely be happy to do so. It's so boring to stay in the city, and I don't have many friends. Isn't it the same for you? I have so many friends back in the residential area. It's so fun to play cards and chat with them every day. It's so annoying to stay in the glasses store every day in the city!"
Du Chen used the same trick he used to seduce Comrade Lao Du to seduce Ren Surong, but this was also his true thought. He really wanted to go back to the living area to celebrate the New Year.
"Will we be able to make it in time?"
Ren Surong asked the most crucial question.
"Of course it's no problem. We went to the furniture store during the day and asked around. Everything is ready. As long as the money is in place, the furniture can be delivered to your home that same day. And as for TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines, my dad's store has them, right? So there's absolutely no problem celebrating the New Year in the living area."
Facing his mother, Du Chen did not dare to be arrogant. He did not dare to say that any problem that could be solved with money was not a problem. He just honestly stated the facts to his mother.
"Then do as you say! Decorate it however you want! Your dad and I won't be in charge!"
Du Chen didn't expect his mother to agree with his opinion all of a sudden, and was stunned for a moment.
"Okay, Mom. I'll go furniture shopping tomorrow. I think I'll have the whole house furnished in two or three days."
Although he didn't understand why his mother suddenly agreed to his decision, it didn't affect Du Chen's good mood. He was now looking forward to this year's New Year's Eve.
"Chenchen, how much do you estimate the decoration will cost? I'll give it to you."
Ren Surong suddenly said to Du Chen in a gentle tone, "It's been a long time since I saw such a gentle mother." Du Chen felt uncomfortable for a moment, so he quickly rejected Ren Surong.
"Mom, no need. I still have some money. I don't need your money. Just give it to me!"
"Oh, that's fine too. Just figure it out for yourself. Your dad and I won't be involved. We'll see what you come up with later."
After hearing what his mother said, Du Chen immediately realized that he had just been tricked. It seemed that his parents had not been prepared to pay for the decoration from the beginning. However, Du Chen did not care. It was just right for him to decorate the new home according to his own ideas, which seemed to be quite cost-effective.
…………………………
In the next few days, Du Chen, Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao frequently traveled back and forth between the living area and the city every day, but the results were also touching. In just a few days, the small villa was almost decorated, and all the furniture such as wardrobes, shoe cabinets, sofas and beds were almost in place. Only the home appliances were brought in to complete the decoration.
