Until Jiang Yuxin appeared at the door and called out with a smile: "Big brother, second brother."
The two men then understood who the young lady the guard was referring to.
The third brother's wife, who had lived with them every day, suddenly became the eldest daughter one day. They were a little uncomfortable at first, and the two of them nodded subconsciously as a response.
They knew that Jiang Yuxin's father was also in the army, but they didn't expect him to be such a high-ranking official, and even a chief. Is the Qin family trying to climb up the social ladder?
Until Qin Man poked his head out of the hall and said excitedly: "Dad, second uncle, come over quickly, we have a TV to watch at home, come and watch TV, it's exciting!"
Naturally, the two had heard of television, but had never watched it. No family in Zaojiazhuang could afford to buy a television.
As soon as they heard there was a TV in the house, they hurried in.
Then I saw the children moving stools and sitting in front of the TV to watch TV.
Cartoons were playing on TV and the children were watching them with great interest. Even Qing'er sat obediently on the stool, not daring to blink.
Only Qin Han was not interested. He thought the cartoon animals in it were childish and could only fool children.
I was touching Ergouzi's head out of boredom, but Ergouzi was lying on the ground with his tongue sticking out, watching the animation inside. He showed great interest and was also watching it very attentively.
The eldest and second sons were watching TV at home and were equally amazed.
"Sister-in-law, this TV must have been brought by you, right?" They never thought that one day the Qin family would be able to watch TV, and they would be the only one in the village.
Jiang Yuxin smiled and explained that this was bought by her mother, and then went to the kitchen to help.
At around 6:40, the local station's weather forecast appeared, and the host was giving a detailed introduction to the weather changes in various cities in the province.
This was the first time they were able to know tomorrow's weather in advance through TV, and it was extremely rare.
When the city where they lived was shown, Qin Man was the first to run to the kitchen excitedly and shouted, "Grandma, the weather forecast says that tomorrow it will be cloudy and then sunny, with a temperature between 12 and 18 degrees."
When Mrs. Qin heard this, she couldn't stop laughing: "Can this TV also broadcast the weather forecast? Then we can know tomorrow's weather changes in advance."
Qin Man didn't say anything else, but hurried back to the hall, fearing that he would miss any more exciting scenes.
In the kitchen, Old Lady Qin was making fish with fermented lees. She put a lot of fermented lees in it. The lees were made by herself from glutinous rice, and the sweetness was just right.
The aroma came out after a while. Knowing that my mother-in-law and her family couldn’t eat spicy food, I only put a few chili peppers to enhance the flavor.
In another wok, vegetables were being fried and the four mothers-in-law and their daughters-in-law were busy at work.
We didn’t have dinner until seven in the evening, when the news broadcast began.
The host inside was broadcasting the news in very standard Mandarin.
In the news, they can see people and things from all over the country. The children had only learned about Daxinganling in textbooks before, and this was the first time they saw the real Daxinganling on TV, and they were fascinated.
Old Lady Qin brought the dishes to the table, shouting, "Children, wash your hands and eat quickly, or the food will get cold."
Usually, as soon as the food was served, the children would wash their hands and go to the kitchen to get food without her calling them. But today, no matter how she called them, they didn't respond.
Seeing this, the guard hurried to the kitchen to help serve the dishes.
The young lady's in-laws are really good cooks. Just smelling the food makes one's appetite whet.
And the food was so sumptuous, he was in for a treat today.
Soon all the dishes were served. Today's dishes were cooked by Zhang Xiumei, including white radish, braised rabbit meat, egg soup, shredded potatoes, wine lees fish and celery fried with bacon.
This bacon was pickled by Old Lady Qin from the wild boar that Qin Han took out from Qiankun Realm before he went to the Magic City last time.
It’s still in the drying stage, so it doesn’t have much flavor, but it’s still delicious when used for cooking.
"What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear grandma calling you to wash your hands and eat? Turn off the TV!" Zhang Xiumei looked at Han'er who was the only one sitting at the dining table preparing to eat, while the others were still watching TV motionlessly, and her face suddenly turned cold.
The children then hurried to wash their hands and serve themselves some food, but they were reluctant to turn off the TV.
At the dining table, Qin Han and the guard were the only ones who were eating seriously. Everyone else, whether adults or children, were eating while watching the news broadcast.
In the past, they lived in the mountains like Zaojiazhuang and had no idea what the outside world was like.
Now they know how wonderful the world outside is.
At this time, a certain regional art troupe appeared in the news, and the actresses in it were dancing and singing on the stage.
"This red song is so beautiful!" Zhang Xiumei exclaimed sincerely as she listened to the high notes of the female singer.
"Hey, look, is that the one dancing my cousin?" The sharp-eyed Qin Qiu immediately recognized Qin Jiayi who was dancing in the most conspicuous position.
"Where, where?" Qin Man, who was eating, quickly raised his head and looked at the TV.
Qin Han, who was originally not interested in this, subconsciously turned his head and looked at the TV.
Everyone else stared at the TV with wide eyes, and indeed saw Jiayi dancing in military uniform, with a male actor next to her. The two looked at each other affectionately for a while, and then looked reluctant, as if they were about to part.
This performance style of both acting and dancing is very immersive.
"It's really Jiayi. How come this child is on TV?" Old Mrs. Qin looked at her daughter with both excitement and confusion.
Qin Jiandang looked at his younger sister on TV and couldn't help showing a proud expression: "Needless to say, my younger sister must be excellent, otherwise how could she be on TV? Look how well she performed."
