Chapter 185 Washing Machine
Liu Cuilan looked around but didn't see anyone. She wondered, "Where did this big box come from?"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao hurried forward, looking surprised: "It's actually delivered."
Seeing her like this, Liu Cuilan was puzzled: "Old Third, what do you mean? What did you deliver?"
"Mom, this is the washing machine I just told you about."
Su Xiaoxiao's face was full of excitement. She turned around and shouted to the people in the house, "Fourth and Fifth Brothers, you two come out quickly and help me carry the washing machine in."
Su Jianwu walked out of the house, holding his buttocks. "Third sister, I'm a wounded soldier now and can't do anything. You still ask me to work? Do you have a conscience?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a large cardboard box at the door and looked puzzled: "Third sister, what is this?"
Su Xiaoxiao pointed at the washing machine and explained to them, "This is called a washing machine. Connect the water and electricity, put the dirty clothes in, add detergent, and it will wash the clothes by itself."
Su Jianwu's eyes widened in shock: "This thing can also help with washing clothes?"
Su Jianwen also looked curious: "I've heard about this washing machine before, but this is the first time I've seen it. It's a rare item. Our school principal has one at home, and the teachers around him are so envious."
Hearing that it was a rare item, Su Jianwu immediately perked up: "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry and carry it inside. Don't leave it outside and get damaged by the wind."
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless. This thing wasn't made of paper, so how could it be broken by being blown away?
Su Jianwu was very happy. With this washing machine, he could show off to his friends at school tomorrow.
He didn't care about the pain in his butt anymore and rolled up his sleeves to move the washing machine.
I tried to hold it, but I didn't expect it to be so heavy.
After trying to move it but failing, he hurriedly called out to Su Jianwen who was standing beside him: "Fourth brother, what are you still standing there for? Come over and help me move it."
The two of them worked together and moved the washing machine into the yard.
"Third sister, please open it quickly and let us learn more about it."
As soon as he put down the washing machine, Su Jianwu urged impatiently.
Liu Cuilan slapped Su Jianwu on the head and said, "Why are you tearing it down? Hurry up and move it inside. What if it gets dirty if you leave it outside?"
She had heard others talk about washing machines before, and it seemed that one cost three or four hundred yuan, and more than a dozen industrial coupons.
If you leave such a valuable thing outside and it gets stolen or gets blown dirty or wet, you will be heartbroken.
Directing the two younger brothers to carry the things into the main hall, she couldn't help but said distressedly, "Third brother, such a valuable thing, you just buy it, why don't we buy it?"
Su Xiaoxiao had forgotten about this. Her small treasury in the game mall was very sufficient. She was already a wealthy woman and didn't consider this matter at all.
Seeing that his mother was about to continue nagging him, he hurriedly made up an excuse. The department store had a few defective washing machines for internal processing, and I saw that the price was very cheap, so I ordered one. "Mom, guess how much this washing machine cost?"
When Liu Cuilan heard it was cheap, she came over immediately and asked, "How much is the spirit? One hundred and twenty yuan, and no ticket required."
Liu Cuilan's eyes widened immediately. She heard that this thing would cost at least three hundred yuan, but now it was less than half the price. It was really a bargain.
Just as she thought of this, her face suddenly darkened again.
Is there something wrong with this thing? Otherwise, why would it be sold so cheaply?
Even if defective items in ordinary department stores are sold, they rarely have such a favorable price, not to mention that this thing is a hot commodity.
Seeing her mother's expression becoming increasingly serious, Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly said, "Well, let's take it apart and see if there's anything wrong. If there is, we can replace it."
Upon hearing this, Liu Cuilan immediately perked up.
Several people carefully opened the box, revealing a brand new washing machine inside.
This washing machine has an old-fashioned white plastic shell, which is a bit outdated now, but it was considered advanced in the 1970s.
Liu Cuilan couldn't let go of it and touched it again and again, carefully examining the washing machine inside and out. She said, "It looks like there should be no problem."
Su Xiaoxiao suggested: "You can't tell the problem just by looking at the appearance. Mom, don't you have clothes to wash? Let's wash two pieces and try it out."
"Yes, I'll get the dirty clothes."
Liu Cuilan said this and hurriedly ran into the house to take out all the dirty clothes.
Su Xiaoxiao watched her desperately stuffing a large pile of dirty clothes into the washing machine, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch: "Mom, don't put too much in."
Liu Cuilan said, "It's so hard to wash them once, it wastes water and electricity, I have to put two more pieces in."
I watched my mother fill the washing machine to the brim and try to press the clothes inside more firmly.
Su Xiaoxiao pressed her forehead and hurriedly stopped her: "Mom, you can't put too much in. If you put too much, the washing machine won't turn and the motor will burn out."
When she heard that they would burn, Liu Cuilan hurriedly took out several more pieces and turned back to ask Su Xiaoxiao: "Third brother, are these okay?"
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao nod, he quickly directed the two younger brothers to pour water into it.
Since there is no running water at home right now, I can only use the most stupid method to fill the washing machine with water.
Su Xiaoxiao asked her two younger brothers to move the washing machine slightly towards the door to facilitate the flow of water in the drain pipe, and then plugged it in.
As soon as I plugged in the power, I turned around and saw my mother Liu Cuilan using a knife to peel soap into the washing machine.
Only then did she remember that there was no laundry detergent at home. She pretended to rummage through the washing machine box, but actually she quietly took out two bags of laundry detergent from the small warehouse.
This was the last time she saw a merchant holding a promotion and stocked up on goods.
She handed the laundry detergent to Liu Cuilan: "Mom, use this, pour a little in, it works better than soap."
Liu Cuilan turned around and saw the two large bags of laundry detergent in her hands. She wondered, "Lao San, where did you get this laundry detergent?"
This thing is rare and cannot be bought normally. It is also much more expensive than soap.
"It was given to me when I bought the washing machine. It was in the box. I just found it."
Su Xiaoxiao made up a reason.
Liu Cuilan looked puzzled: "How come I didn't see these two big bags of laundry detergent just now?"
Su Xiaoxiao quickly changed the subject: "Mom, I've plugged in the power, please try it quickly."
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll try it right away. The electricity is charged by the hour."
Liu Cuilan wiped her hands on the clothes and turned the washing machine knob with a pious look on her face.
The rumbling sound immediately filled the whole house, scaring her so much that she almost fell to the ground.
"It turned, it really turned."
Su Xiaoxiao was about to remind Liu Cuilan to close the lid of the washing machine when Su Jianwu rubbed his hands with curiosity and then stretched out his eager paws towards the spinning washing machine.
