Wu Zhiqiu sighed, saying that none of the children from such families have an easy life. The truths that they have to suffer countless losses in their half-life to understand, are told to others when they are born.
Children from ordinary families really have to pay more to succeed.
From that day on, Wu Zhiqiu was so busy that he didn't even have time to hang himself. After work, he would rush home to cook for Fafa. If he came later, someone would block his job offer from him. Those who were so rude would not give in and would just take advantage of him.
After watching TV every day, the ground is covered with melon seed shells, peanut shells, candy wrappers, and spit.
The children from the alleys in front and back all ran to watch TV. Every day the courtyard was in a mess, and small items in the house were missing from time to time. The big basin used to wash clothes in the front yard of Uncle Ge's house was taken away by someone, as well as Uncle Zhang's shovel, Bai Qiancheng's bucket, Sister Liu's newly bought vegetables, and Da Laba's pickle jar...
Even the bolt of the gate was stolen. Several families in the courtyard didn't dare to come out to watch TV at night. Wu Zhiqiu didn't expect that his wife had done such a bad thing and caused so much trouble to the people in the courtyard. The couple had no intention of refusing at the time because of their face. Now it seems that it would be better not to let them watch it at all. Now they are in a dilemma.
"Or, let's give the TV away. If they don't like it, then so be it. If they continue like this, we won't be able to live here." Li Mancang sighed. Who could have thought it would be like this.
"Let's move out. It's too tiring to live every day." The third child was impatient. Who could stand this every day?
"It's too far from your mother's workplace, so we'll move there at the end of the year." Li Mancang felt sorry for his old wife and she had gotten used to living here.
Wu Zhiqiu wanted to move out after dealing with He Meina, but given the current situation, he might as well move out first to get some peace and quiet.
She hadn't thought about it yet, but when she returned home the next day, she found the door closed, so she knocked.
"Who is it?" It was Uncle Ge's voice.
"It's me, Uncle Ge. Why is the door closed?"
The door opened a little, and Uncle Ge pulled Wu Zhiqiu in. "You and Mancang are inferior in reputation, I will send those people away."
Uncle Zhang took out a piece of paper and wrote on it, the TV is broken and needs to be sent for repair, please do not disturb.
Wu Zhiqiu: "Uncle Ge, Uncle Zhang, thank you."
"What are you thanking us for? We still want to watch it. We were afraid you couldn't stand it, so we gave the TV away," Uncle Ge laughed.
Wu Zhiqiu also smiled and said, "Just watch it, it won't hurt."
Uncle Zhang pasted the paper outside the gate, and when everyone in the compound came back, he locked the gate.
The children outside were banging on the door, but no one paid any attention to them. People who came to watch TV every day came over and saw that they were not allowed to watch the TV. Some of them cursed and said that the Li family was stingy.
Some people sighed and said that it was a relief that they could survive for so many days despite the constant harm. There would be nothing to watch in the future.
After dinner, several families in the compound brought their small stools and watched TV leisurely. Li Mancang moved the TV to the door of the main room, and everyone sat in the yard to watch it, which was cool.
Aunt Yuan brought some fried peanuts, Jiang Fen bought some melon seeds, Sister Liu brought a big watermelon, Li Mancang made a pot of tea, and everyone in the yard ate and drank while watching.
Wu Zhiqiu also breathed a sigh of relief and decided not to move out for the time being.
The next morning when they went to the bathroom, the couple heard a lot of sour words.
"Oh, you think you're making a big deal out of a broken TV? You even said the TV is broken. If you don't want to watch it, then don't watch it. How hypocritical!"
"We are all neighbors, why are you so stingy? No one will bother with you in the future."
"Who is so rare as to look at it?"
