Chapter 127, Li Shuangshuang (asking for monthly ticket)
The difference was half, and An Wen felt disappointed. If he bought this one for 150 yuan, he would feel sorry for his third grandmother and sister-in-law.
He glanced at Li Shuangshuang and said, "How about we buy this?" An Wen's hands were shaking a little. This was the most money he had ever spent in his life.
And today, when he went out, his mother gave him three hundred yuan and asked him to buy a gold ring for Shuangshuang, as a way of earning some face for his family.
But now...
He was not afraid of his mother scolding him, he was afraid that Shuangshuang might have some thoughts in her mind.
Because when he came, he told her about buying a gold ring.
Li Shuangshuang also understood what He Anwen meant, but she didn't care. "Okay, I'll listen to you." She felt that compared to buying a gold ring for her and buying a radio for her Third Grandma, buying a gold ring for her was more important to her Third Grandma.
She still knows the difference between the important and the unimportant.
"I'm sorry, Shuangshuang. How about I buy it for you next time?" An Wen felt a little sorry for his future wife.
"It's okay." Li Shuangshuang smiled and shook her head. "Even if you bought it for me, I wouldn't dare take it home. You know the situation of my family." Having said that, Li Shuangshuang became sad again.
"Don't worry, Shuangshuang. I will treat you well in the future." An Wen said with red eyes.
The boss listened for a while and understood a little bit, but it was not important. "How about this, you are getting married soon, right? If you buy this radio, how about I give you two flashlights?"
The flashlight is not cheap either, ten yuan each.
What he gave were two big ones, the largest flashlights on the market, the same as those used in coal mines, except that they required more batteries.
"Thank you, thank you boss." The two were very happy after hearing this.
In this way, the trip of An Wen and his wife to the county town ended up being a trip to buy a radio for the third grandmother.
An Wen later gave Li Shuangshuang fifty yuan and told her to buy whatever she liked to eat, not to be discovered by her family and not to put herself in a difficult position, as they were going to get married in a month.
Li Shuangshuang was very touched.
After An Wen spent all the money his mother gave him and his own savings, he returned to the village with gifts.
Li Shuangshuang also returned to her home.
Grandma He and Mei Xue also turned over all the taro in the paddy field. Grandma He collected all the female taro and planned to use them for planting next year.
After Mei Xue finished picking up the taro, she felt her hands going numb. "Grandma, can this be eaten?" she asked doubtfully.
"You can eat it. It's a good thing. Of course, it saved the lives of ordinary people like us when we had no food to eat. Grandma will make it for you to try later. Then you will know whether it tastes good or not."
The taro grown in my own home is fragrant when boiled in water. If you add some meat to stew it together, it will be delicious.
Compared to her grandmother's expectations, Mei Xue was a little...unbelievable.
But grandma wouldn't lie to her, so she just had to wait and see her grandma's cooking skills.
As soon as dinner came out, Anwen ran over.
He went home first, then told his mother, and with her consent, he ran over with the radio.
"Anwen is here. Have you eaten?" Seeing that it was Anwen, Grandma He said happily.
There's nothing you can do about it, these kids are becoming more and more likable.
"Third grandma, look what I brought you." An Wen picked up the radio in his hand and shook it ostentatiously, "Third grandma, do you know what this is?"
Well, children all have a heart to show off.
But Third Grandma really didn't know what this thing was. "What is it? It's so big." She asked because she didn't understand.
"Is there a plug at Third Grandma's house? I'll give it a try and you'll know."
"This thing still uses electricity?" Third Grandma was puzzled.
"Yes, let's go quickly. I will definitely give you a surprise later."
Soon the two of them arrived at the main room, where Mei Xue had installed several power strips, one in every room.
It’s just that there are not as many as in the main room.
"Listen, Third Grandma!" An Wen plugged in the line and immediately sat aside.
Grandma He sat there like a curious child, watching and listening attentively.
Unfortunately, no sound was heard for most of the day.
At this time, Mei Xue came over and asked, "What are you doing?" She had just finished cooking and came out to see what An Wen was doing.
"Xiaoxue, come here quickly. Anwen brought a big thing here, and I don't know what it's for." Grandma He said anxiously.
As soon as Mei Xue came in, she saw an old radio, which she had seen in books.
However, she saw that the buttons were neatly arranged there, and she seemed to remember which buttons she should press to play.
So Mei Xue came over and pressed it directly upwards.
At this time...
"Wow, there's a sound, someone is talking." At that time, televisions were just legendary things, and people in the countryside had never seen one. At least in Hejia Village, no one had one.
I didn't hear on the radio that anyone had this thing.
Come to think of it, Hejia Village has only just had electricity, so how come there are all these electrical appliances?
"Sister-in-law, do you know how to use it?" An Wen was a little confused. Why was he so stupid? The boss told him that this thing had to be turned on.
"I've seen it." Mei Xue explained.
Soon, singing voices were heard on the radio. I have to say, the singing was pretty good and very sweet.
When Grandma He saw the new stuff, she immediately put aside everything else and listened to the song on the radio. When the song stopped, someone started talking, and it seemed like they were talking about some news.
She didn't understand anyway, but it was so strange that she made a sound.
It was also the first time for An Wen to see this thing, and he was having a lot of fun playing with Grandma He.
Mei Xue was speechless, but seeing her grandma like this, she also thought that it was time to buy some electrical appliances for the house.
But after counting the money in my pocket, I think...
Make money.
After listening for a while, Mei Xue turned around and went to the kitchen. Dinner was not ready yet.
While An Wen was listening, he told Grandma He that this thing was his gift to her as a filial piety, which made Grandma He so happy that her mouth was crooked.
Always praised Anwen as a good boy.
Not only that, Grandma He also gradually got over the fact that Anwen had shared so much money with her before, and she loved Anwen very much.
An Wen also had dinner at Mei Xue's house. After he left, Mei Xue was dragged by her grandmother to listen to the radio.
This thing is not new in those cities, but in Hejia Village, it may be the only one.
"Xiaoxue, Anwen is a good kid, and the Li family's kid is also a good one." Grandma He suddenly sighed.
Mei Xue was a little confused, "Why do you say that?"
"An Wen said that the idea of this radio was from the Li family girl. He was going to use the money to buy someone a ring today, but after hearing that he had shared so much money with you, the girl asked An Wen to buy this and give it to me."
After hearing this, Mei Xue's smile became more sincere. "It's okay, grandma, just keep it. If it's really good, we'll have a lot of time to spend together in the future."
If you really want to get along well, then do it more often in the future.
If it's difficult to get along with someone, she will just stop associating with them.
"It's good that you know this. Otherwise, grandma won't feel at ease accepting this thing." Grandma He said.
The book performed very poorly when it was first published, so poorly that the author wanted to cry. Oh, I feel so sad that my child is not favored by others. I feel so sad.
I ask for your support, please love me, please vote for me, please give me monthly tickets, and please give me rewards.
