Country Love: My stepmother, Yang Xiaoyan, told me to tone it down.

Yang Xiaoyan pushed the person out the door.

Xu Hui turned his head away from the large bed, smiled calmly, and knew that it would be his territory sooner or later.

the next day.

Xu Hui found Xie Dajiao in the village.

I almost forgot to do one thing: help her rebuild the supermarket.

A while ago.

She sourced goods from small workshops and sold rat heads and duck necks. Liu Neng suffered food poisoning, and the grocery store was shut down.

When the seizure expires, it's the perfect time to register with the industry and commerce bureau and turn the grocery store into a supermarket.

Xu Hui planned to pay for it himself, using Xie Xiaomei's name.

Big Foot is Xiao Mei's aunt, which makes sense.

Xu Hui unexpectedly had a relationship with Da Jiao, and the supermarket offered him compensation.

The villagers were overjoyed when Big Foot Supermarket reopened.

With the grocery store shut down, villagers have nowhere to buy basic necessities like firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea.

Just a few days later, Big Foot Supermarket reopened.

Xu Hui used Xie Xiaomei's name to pay the money, so Da Jiao registered with the Administration for Industry and Commerce using both her and Xiaomei's names.

The supermarket is 10 times larger than the old grocery store. It is spacious and bright, with rows of shelves filled with a wide variety of products. Even the cash register at the entrance is equipped with a barcode scanner.

This equipment is almost as good as that in a county town.

Big Foot was overjoyed and kept urging Xiao Mei to return to China so that the two of them could get their marriage certificate as soon as possible and enjoy the wedding candy.

this day.

Xie Guangkun went to collect mountain products in another town and found a pot on someone's roof.

When asked what it did, I learned it was a satellite dish that could receive television signals.

They even led Xie Guangkun into the house to watch TV; it had all kinds of channels and the picture quality was high.

"Is it expensive?"

"It costs 200 yuan. You can buy it and put it on the roof to use."

"So cheap, where did you buy it?"

"It's in Tieling, on the east side of the mountain road, there's a shop."

Xie Guangkun kept it in mind.

It's important to know that television in Ivory Mountain Village is still stuck in the antenna era.

The TV is inside the house, and in the yard, a long bamboo pole is used to hang aluminum four-corner antennas on top.

When there was no TV signal, we had to go to the yard and turn bamboo poles.

Guangkun's antenna signal was poor, so he tied the broken steamer basket used for steaming buns to it, and the signal improved slightly.

Even so, they only managed to get four or five local TV stations.

Then look at those satellite dishes, they only cost 200 yuan, and they can receive dozens of TV channels.

I heard that they receive even more channels at night, including foreign channels.

Xie Guangkun buys mountain goods, but he's always shortchanging customers. He can easily squeeze out 200 yuan and doesn't care at all.

The day.

Xie Guangkun took a bus to Tieling, bought a satellite dish, and returned to the village close to dark.

Afraid of being spotted by the villagers, Guangkun packed the mountain goods in white nylon bags and carried them back on a donkey cart.

"Old man, we already have a pot for cooking, why buy another one? Isn't that just wasting money?"

Zhao Jinfeng complained.

Recently, with the family struggling financially, Yongqiang is juggling studying for the civil service exam with tending to his orchard.

Xie Guangkun said that he was not allowed to set up an orchard, but Yongqiang had already invested the money borrowed from Wang Bing, so he couldn't let it go to waste. Xie Guangkun paid for everything afterward.

"This isn't for cooking, but it can be used to watch TV!"

Xie Guangkun said.

"Watch TV? There's no screen, how are we supposed to watch TV?"

“You wouldn’t understand even if I explained it to you. Just bring the ladder over and I’ll put it on the roof.”

Xie Guangkun and Zhao Jinfeng got busy.

In the evening, Yongqiang returned from the orchard.

"Dad, what are you doing? Don't do anything rash!"

Yongqiang ran over.

A while ago.

Yongqiang wanted to plant an orchard, but Guangkun threatened to kill himself, attempting suicide by hanging and climbing onto the roof.

Yongqiang thought that he was up to no good again and climbed onto the roof.

“Yongqiang, not this time.”

Zhao Jinfeng offered an explanation.

"Yongqiang, you're a college student, look at this!"

Guangkun finished installing it and got off.

"It seems to be receiving signals."

"Old woman, look at him! No wonder he's the only college student in Ivory Mountain, I recognized him at a glance!!"

Xie Guangkun said with a smile, "Come on, let's go inside and watch TV."

really.

This time there are dozens more TV programs available, and people from other provinces can also receive them.

In fact, some ethnic minority television stations speak in a language that is difficult to understand.

"Dad, where did you get this? It's much better than the old antenna."

Yongqiang adjusted his glasses, looking quite interested.

"Bought in the city, isn't this better than digital TV which costs several hundred yuan a year? One-time purchase, lifetime use."

"Yongqiang, stop looking at that! Go back to your room and study! The civil service exam is in two months, don't fall behind!"

"Dad, let me watch a little longer."

Yongqiang was reluctant to leave.

In the end, Xie Guangkun still chased him away.

After dinner in the evening.

Xie Guangkun sat in front of the TV, watching with great enjoyment.

There were indeed more than ten more channels at night than during the day.

Zhao Jinfeng works in the fields during the day, and when she gets tired, she falls asleep as soon as her head hits the pillow.

Xie Guangkun became more and more engrossed in the reading, and before he knew it, it was midnight.

The shows in the latter half of the night are even more exciting, especially the adult programs from abroad.

Xie Guangkun could never withstand such a test!

In no time, he started bleeding from his nose.

"Satellite dishes are great!"

Xie Guangkun murmured.

Finally, I was so tired that I went to sleep on the kang (a heated brick bed).

The program was too explicit, leaving Xie Guangkun with nowhere to channel his energy.

"Old woman, wake up, it's been so long since we did 'that'."

"You old codger, don't you have any self-awareness? Can't you just get some sleep?"

Zhao Jinfeng mumbled a curse in her daze.

The main problem is that Xie Guangkun usually has the will but not the ability, so she's too lazy to even bother with a perfunctory response.

"alright."

Xie Guangkun was deeply resentful.

The TV was full of beautiful women, and compared to them, Zhao Jinfeng couldn't stand looking at them, so her interest greatly diminished.

the next day.
