Chapter 734: Air Conditioning Installation
"No banquet?"
Wang Tiedan asked curiously.
"Hey, it's done. Just one table, we ate outside. I just came back and gave some wedding candy to the people in the courtyard."
"That's really mean."
"Who says it isn't?"
Wang Tiedan shook his head and pushed the cart into the central courtyard. As expected, he saw a big red wedding character pasted on the door of the Jia family, which looked very festive.
The house was quite lively, probably because the in-laws were still there.
Wang Tiedan just took a quick look and didn't see the bride, so he didn't stop and went straight into the restaurant.
With the help of Wang Dacheng and Liang Tingyu, it took a lot of effort to install the air conditioner.
In just a short while, almost everyone in the hospital was attracted to the door. Everyone wanted to feel the cool breeze in the hot summer.
As soon as the power is turned on, the chassis starts to make noises.
Wang Tiedan was still a little worried about the unstable voltage, but when the cool breeze blew out, he felt relieved.
In this age when televisions and fans are not popular, adding a few air conditioners doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"It's really cool~"
Wang Dacheng was standing next to the air conditioner and felt the cool breeze for the first time, which was very novel.
After saying that, he hurriedly called Liang Tingyu.
"Tingyu, stand here. It's cool and comfortable."
"I can feel it standing here, it's really cool. Godfather, Auntie, Third Auntie, please come in quickly."
Liang Tingyu said this and hurriedly called Uncle Ni and Grandma and others.
"Yes, yes, come in, close the doors and windows, and the room will be cool in a while."
"well."
Soon, the room was packed with people.
Many of them are not new members of the retirement group.
Wang Tiedan didn't care either.
"Oh, in these hottest days of summer, it will be so comfortable to eat and sleep in this room!" someone sighed.
"Yeah, I can stay in the house all day."
"No wonder it's so expensive! It would be better if it were cheaper."
"It's three thousand yuan, it's not much cheaper."
"Tiedan, where did you buy this? It seems that the department store doesn't have this thing?"
"My students went to Hong Kong for an exchange program and bought it there. If you want to buy it, you can come to me next year and I'll bring it to you for free."
Wang Tiedan said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell into silence.
Who can spend three thousand dollars for a little comfort like you?
No, it's nine thousand.
That’s not right, it should be more.
When Wang Tiedan bought things, he never bought just one or two, but always three or more.
First came the bicycles, three at a time.
Next came the fans. There are eight in the courtyard now, almost one for every household.
Later came television, and now there are four in the hospital.
"forget it."
"That's right, we can't afford it, it's good enough that you can let us use it."
Wang Tiedan smiled and asked Wang Dacheng to go to the backyard again. Braving the scorching sun, they finally installed the second and third machines.
This is where the children sleep. Only if they sleep comfortably can they have the energy to study during the day.
Jia family.
Banggeng sat with his new wife, smiling from ear to ear.
Qin Huairu felt the same way. The more she looked at the new bride, the more she liked her. It was as if she was seeing herself when she got married 28 years ago.
After being a daughter-in-law for many years, she finally became a mother-in-law.
The new bride's family was also sitting in the room, but they didn't look very happy.
Getting married is a happy event, a great happy event.
Not to mention the city, even in the countryside, people would set up a few tables to have fun.
But the Jia family, including the new bride's family, only had three tables in total.
It's too shabby.
That would have been fine, but as soon as they entered the yard, they always felt something was not right.
When Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu were having dinner, they kept looking for reasons, saying that her life was not good in the past and she had no contact with the people in the courtyard.
But along the way, no one even took the initiative to say hello. How strange!
If they had not already obtained the marriage certificate, if the Jia family were not a family with three workers, if the Jia family had not promised to find a job for the new daughter-in-law, they really wanted to just take their daughter away.
The people inside the house were chatting casually, but were suddenly interrupted by a sound outside.
The two families couldn't help but look outside and saw Wang Tiedan carrying an air conditioner into the central courtyard.
Qin Huairu also saw Wang Tiedan and immediately came up with an idea.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, don't you want to know why our family has a bad relationship with the people in the courtyard? Look, this person outside is the reason."
As she spoke, she pointed at Wang Tiedan.
"The one holding the box is Banggeng's uncle-in-law, Wang Tiedan. He's a famous person in this area. I heard he's now a colonel and works at the Army General Hospital."
"Oh~"
Upon hearing this identity, the way the new bride and her family looked at Wang Tiedan immediately changed.
Qin Huairu continued, "He is my cousin's man, and he lives in Courtyard 101. However, more than half of the people in this courtyard are related to him."
"That's right~ Especially those old men and old ladies, they are all grandpas and grandmas from the countryside that he brought here. They are unreasonable and rely on their numbers and their position as the manager to dominate the courtyard!"
Jia Zhang had been holding it in for a long time, and she seized the opportunity to quickly respond.
"I was beaten up just for saying something, and they even ganged up on me to isolate me!"
"Not only did they isolate my mother-in-law, but in fact, they also blamed our whole family."
"Yes, and his wife is an ungrateful vixen. She cut off all ties with her cousin's family because of such a trivial matter.
I tell you, if it weren’t for our family’s help, there would be no way a country girl like her would have been able to marry Wang Tiedan!”
Jia Zhang gritted her teeth whenever she thought of Qin Jingru.
The new bride's parents looked at Jia Zhang's expression and actually believed it a little.
This expression doesn't look like it's fake.
Qin Huairu continued, "People in the courtyard saw that we had offended his uncle-in-law, and after a while, they stopped associating with us."
My mother-in-law nodded to show her understanding, but she also had some questions.
"We are all relatives. Even if we break bones, we are still connected. Don't you think about talking it over and reconciling our relationship?"
"Why didn't you say anything?"
Qin Huairu looked at Xiaodang.
"Ask Xiao Dang how many times we have approached them, trying to reconcile, but they think we are poor relatives and are afraid of being a burden to them, so they don't even want to pay any attention to us!"
Xiaodang nodded solemnly, and the facts were indeed similar.
My mother-in-law was even more confused.
"No, you have three employees in your family, and you're still poor?"
"That depends on who you compare it with. Compared with the average families in the city, our family is definitely good. However, compared with his uncle's family, it is far behind.
Let me tell you, the three employees in our family only make a combined salary of about 100 yuan, but this amount is not even half of his uncle-in-law’s salary.”
Qin Huairu said this, actually she also meant to show off.
"More than a hundred, not half of his?"
The new bride's family all widened their eyes.
People are more infuriating than people.
Their family worked in the fields, but they could not earn more than 100 yuan a year.
That is to say, the gap between people may be even greater than the gap between people and animals.
