As she spoke, Third Aunt shouted for Yan Jiecheng to bring the washing board over.
Yan Jiecheng heard his mother shouting in the room. He thought that she was going to wash clothes or something, so he hurriedly brought the washing board over.
Yan Bugui saw that Yan Jiecheng had indeed brought the washboard over. He rolled his eyes at Yan Jiecheng and said angrily,"
"Unfilial son, really unfilial son! I've really raised you for decades in vain!"
When Yan Jiecheng saw his mother's attitude, he instantly understood what was going on. He placed the washboard on the ground in front of Yan Bugui in fear.
"Dad, take it easy. Your knees hurt if you kneel for too long!”
After Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, he covered his mouth and ran away with a smile. He didn't forget to imagine Yan Bugui kneeling on the washboard.
Yan Bugui was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Without a word, he took off a shoe and threw it at Yan Jiecheng.
"What a sin! Why did I give birth to such an ingrate!”
……
On He Xiao's side, she carried the television in her right hand and a chicken in her left hand as she entered the courtyard.
From afar, he saw Qin Huairu standing in front of his father, He Yuzhu's house. Her hands were clasped nervously as she paced back and forth hesitantly.
He looked like he wanted to knock on the door to call for help, but he could not bring himself to do so.
He Xiao deliberately walked forward and sneered,"
"Hey, isn't this Grandma Qin? Why? You can't wait to look for my dad the moment my mommy and I go out?”
Qin Huairu was originally facing the door and was so nervous that she did not know how to speak to He Yuzhu. She did not notice that He Xiaoyi had arrived behind her.
Qin Huairu thought about it for a long time and finally figured it out. What was face?
Would he be able to enjoy the room that the deaf old lady had and the salary that He Yuzhu had been receiving for a long time?
Qin Huairu did not want to lose everything. That was why she decided to apologize to He Yuzhu.
That was why she had come to He Yuzhu shamelessly when she saw Lou Xiao'e and He Xiao leave.
However, she was still worried that He Yuzhu's anger had not subsided. She was afraid that she would be slapped by He Yuzhu again.
Therefore, she hesitated at the door and did not knock on He Yuzhu's door.
Qin Huairu was shocked when she heard He Xiao's shout from behind. Her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
Qin Huairu hurriedly turned around.
When she realized that He Xiao had returned, she was so frightened that her face turned pale. She did not even dare to reply and immediately turned around in shame and ran to her door.
Seeing Qin Huiru run back to her room, He Xiao asked He Yuzhu to open the door.
He Yuzhu heard He Xiao's scream from inside the house and hurriedly ran over to open the door.
Seeing He Xiao holding a big cardboard box in one hand and the chicken clucking in the other, she couldn't help but be stunned.
He widened his eyes and stared at He Xiao in a daze. It took him a while to react and hurriedly took the big box from He Xiao's hands.
"He Xiao, this, what is this? Such a big box is so heavy. How did you carry it back?”
He Yuzhu took the cardboard box from He Xiao's hand and realized that it was really heavy. If it wasn't for the strength, he would have almost dropped it.
He immediately muttered in his heart. How did this kid carry such a big box back with one hand all the way?
"A twelve-inch black and white television!" He Xiao said without hesitation.
"Television? Twelve inches?"
He Yuzhu was dumbfounded when he heard the words 'television'.
During this period of time, He Yuzhu had been thinking about how to get a television set back.
It was just that his pockets were empty, and all his salary was with Qin Huairu, who refused to take it out.
He had originally wanted to do some private work outside and save up enough money before buying it.
He did not expect He Xiao to bring the television home.
And it was a twelve-inch one!
One had to know that the televisions in Xu Damao's, Liu Haizhong's, and Yan Bugui's houses were all nine-inch televisions.
In other words, this twelve-inch black and white television was the only one in the entire courtyard.
He Yuzhu opened the box in disbelief.
Seeing that there was indeed a 12-inch black and white television in the box, she completely believed He Xiao's words.
He Yuzhu looked at He Xiao in shock and asked,"
"He Xiao, what's going on? Who bought it for you?"
"Mommy was afraid that I wouldn't be used to living here and would be bored, so she bought it for me!”He Xiao replied unhurriedly.
Hearing He Xiao say that Lou Xiao'e bought it for him, He Yuzhu heaved a sigh of relief.
Since it was Lou Xiao'e who bought it, then at least the origin was not a problem.
However, when she thought about it, she finally had a biological son, but she couldn't even afford a television for He Xiao.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu could not help but feel guilty.
He owed He Xiao and Lou Xiao'e too much.
He Yuzhu hurriedly moved the television back into the house. She turned around to look at He Xiao and realized that He Xiao was still holding a chicken in her hand.
He Yuzhu looked at He Xiao with a puzzled expression. He pointed at the chicken in He Xiao's hand and asked with a smile,"
"Did your mother buy this too?”
He Xiao shook his head slightly and smiled.""No, it's a gift from the third uncle in the front yard!”
"Third Uncle?"
He Yuzhu widened his eyes and looked at He Xiao. He felt that He Xiao was fooling him.
Everyone in the courtyard knew that Third Master Yan Bugui was famous for being a thief.
How could a person who even charged his children a fee for watching television be so generous today to give He Xiao a big hen?
Moreover, resources were scarce in this era. Many people did not even have enough to eat. Not everyone had chickens at home.
Even if there were one or two chickens at home, they would be kept for the chickens to lay eggs.
He couldn't even bear to kill them and eat them, so how could he be so generous as to give them away?
Furthermore, regardless of He Yuzhu or He Xiao, they were not related to Yan Bugui.
Then, there was no way he could give He Xiao such a big chicken.
He Xiao nodded with a calm smile.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Third Uncle!"
He Yuzhu still had a look of disbelief on his face when he heard He Xiao's honest and affirmative answer. However, he absolutely believed that He Xiao would not steal the chicken back from Third Uncle.
He Yuzhu nodded slightly and smiled as he touched the back of He Xiao's head."
"Haha, there's no need. If my son says so, then so be it!”
He Yuzhu was not stupid. Now that the chicken had been brought into the house, even if the chicken belonged to the king, it had nothing to do with him now.
As she spoke, she took the hen and placed it in the cage. Then, she came back to figure out how to place the television.
He Xiao deliberately asked He Yuzhu to put the TV on the table by the window.
This way, Qin Huairu would be able to hear the sound of the television when it was turned on.
They wanted to see it but could not see it, wanted to hear it but could not hear it clearly, wanted to hide but could not hide, wanted to buy but could not afford it!
This family of ingrates was going to die from hunger.
He Yuzhu fiddled with it for a long time, but he still could not figure out how to change the channel.
In the end, He Xiao was the one who adjusted the antenna and the channel. Soon, a clear image of the television station appeared.
He Yuzhu looked at He Xiao's skillful operation and was instantly impressed by him.
She thought to herself that she had been fiddling with it for a long time but still could not figure it out. He Xiao was only an eight-year-old child, but she had actually done it in a few moves.
"He Xiao, not bad!"
"This, how did you do this? Hurry up and teach dad!"
