"Okay." The comrade at the power supply station installed the meter and turned on the power, then said to Xiao Guofeng, "Comrade Guofeng, go and pull the switch."
"I'll do it, I'll do it." Liang Jianguo was very excited and insisted on pulling the switch himself. The boy ran behind the door, found the light switch, and pulled it gently, and the lights in the room came on.
Xiao Guofeng installed electric lights so that he could study at night, so the lights he always chose were of high wattage. Even if it was not dark yet, the electric lights could illuminate the room brightly.
"It's so bright." Liang Jianguo, Liang Tuanjie and Xu Guozhu also cheered.
"This is an electric light. It's really too bright." The villagers who were watching also exclaimed, thinking that electric light would be a dream that they would never reach in their lifetime.
Xiao Guofeng was quite satisfied with the tiled lantern. He turned around and thanked the comrades at the power supply station, "Thank you, comrades at the power supply station, for your hard work."
"Comrade Guofeng, don't be so polite. This is all our job." The comrades at the power supply station still admired Xiao Guofeng.
After all, Xiao Guofeng earned his own money from farming, and there was no speculation that they despised, so they were very polite when talking to Xiao Guofeng.
After some pleasantries, they went back.
Xiao Guofeng cleaned the new house again and then returned to the town.
Although the new house has been built, it is not yet time to move into the new house. Moreover, the electricity is only connected to the house, but some important daily necessities have not been delivered, so it is inconvenient to live in. Everything will have to wait until New Year's Day in 86. , it is a good day to move into a new house and pray for blessings. Xiao Guofeng is scheduled to move into a new house on that day.
They continued to spend their days studying. Even when they went to the greenhouse to sprinkle water on the mushrooms, they did not forget to endorse it. Soon 1985 passed.
New Year's Day arrives with great anticipation among the kids.
Early in the morning, the supply and marketing cooperative's trucks went to Daliang Village to deliver things, including chickens, ducks, fish, beef and mutton, vegetables, fruits, and mushrooms.
The villagers set up a big stove and a big pot. Once the fire burned, these ingredients would emit their own attractive aroma in the big pot.
In this era, as long as there is enough meat and no need to add oil, the food will be delicious.
As plates of dishes were served, the villagers said good things and congratulated Xiao Guofeng, and they ate from noon to evening.
As soon as it was dark, someone asked Xiao Guofeng to turn on the electric light he had just installed, and the room instantly became bright.
"Oh, this is an electric lamp. It's really beautiful. If the wind blows somewhere, it won't be blown out." An old man said with emotion.
"It won't be blown out, but if the wire is blown out, the light will dare to go out." Xiao Guofeng said humbly and humorously.
"Haha..." His words instantly made the elders burst into laughter.
The guests and hosts were enjoying themselves in the new house.
Some people are happy while others are sad. In the old house of the Xiao family, Li Shancao, mother and son were having a dinner of clear soup and water.
The sound of drinking and cheering coming from Xiao Guofeng's new home at the head of the village from time to time made Xiao Guoxiang unable to eat. He held his rice bowl and looked at the boiled cabbage on the dining table, thinking about the big fish and meat at Xiao Guofeng's house, which he originally had a share of. of.
But it was all disturbed by his careless mother.
The more Xiao Guoxiang thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't eat anymore, so he put down the bowl in his hand angrily, got up and went back to his room.
"Guoxiang, Guoxiang, there are still vegetables, why don't you eat, comrade, eat some." Li Shancao felt sorry for his son because he didn't eat enough, and asked him to eat more, but he only got the sound of Xiao Guoxiang slamming the door.
"Mom, tell me, why did you agree to let Xiao Guofeng separate his family in the first place?" Xiao Guoqing thought that Xiao Guofeng's family was eating big fish and meat at this moment, and he couldn't swallow his clear soup, so he simply put down his chopsticks and complained. Pick up Li Shancao,
"If you hadn't agreed to his separation, we would have had a share of every penny he earned, and I could live in the house he built. But now, he is lavishing food and fish on us. What is it?"
After saying that, he pushed the vegetable basin without disdain, and the vegetable leaves and soup spilled out.
When Li Shancao saw this, he felt extremely distressed and complained, "I didn't agree with the separation of the family at that time, but what can I do? That dead bastard was determined to separate the family at that time. What can I do?"
She regrets it now, but what can she do?
I can only regret that I shouldn't have agreed to their separation in the first place.
"Humph, even my little sister has a new house to live in, but I don't." Xiao Guoqing couldn't help but complain about the house again. He looked up at the Xiao family's tile-roofed house and said quietly,
"This house will belong to Guoxiang from now on and has nothing to do with me. Mom, I will be the one without a house from now on.
Even my little sister has a house built for her by Xiao Guofeng, so she will have nothing to worry about in the future, but I...
Mom, I haven’t had a father since I was a child, my mother’s health is not good, and I am not as good at reading as Guoxiang. I think there is no hope for me in this life.
I'm not even as good as my little sister, Mom. "
"National Day. It's Mom who's sorry for you. It's Mom who's useless. If Mom had been useful, you wouldn't be like this." Mothers all feel sorry for their own children. Seeing Xiao Guoqing like this, Li Shancao felt very distressed.
But Xiao Guoqing didn't think it was enough. He continued to pretend to be pitiful, "Mom, I am your eldest son. No matter what happens to Guoxiang in the future, I will definitely provide for you in old age. But I also want my mother to live a good life, but in this world It's so difficult. If I could have a house like my little sister, I would let my mother live in it and it would be bright at night.
I will never marry with a house like my little sister. In the future, such a nice house will bear someone else's surname.I will leave that house to my mother. "
"How did I forget this?" Li Shancao also woke up from a dream, "That bastard Xiao Guofeng built the house so well that Dongmei is going to get married. If she gets married in the future, , when her husband saw that the house was good, he begged for nothing and insisted on living in it, so we weren’t at a loss."
"That's right, Dongmei is your daughter, and what's hers is yours. Xiao Guofeng gave her the house, so you also have a share in living in it, right? Why should the sisters from the Zheng family live in it? We should be together The family should live in it." Seeing that Li Shancao finally understood his request, Xiao Guoqing immediately began to encourage Li Shancao to ask Xiao Dongmei for a house.
It makes no sense that Xiao Dongmei, the loser, can live in such a nice house, but Xiao Guoqing cannot live in it.
But he is Xiao Dongmei's brother. He knows that he is not qualified to ask Xiao Dongmei for a house, and he is also afraid that the villagers will poke his spine.
He still needs face.
"Okay, mom, go, mom wants a house with that unfilial little bitch." Li Shancao was indeed bewitched by Xiao Guoqing, and decided to ask Xiao Dongmei for her house as his own mother.
She is Xiao Dongmei's biological mother. If Xiao Dongmei doesn't give her a house, she will make those little hooves look good.
"Mom, the whole village is there now. You go now. In front of so many people, my little sister dare not refuse to give. If she doesn't give, you will suppress her with filial piety." Xiao Guoqing reminded.
