Chapter 469 Where are the people?
At around six-thirty in the evening, the Chu family courtyard was already overcrowded.
A crowd of people were sitting in front of the TV. The best viewing seats in the first few rows were people from related households, including store employees or Chu Heng’s friends. , and behind them are the neighbors,
people are crowded and sitting next to each other, filling the small courtyard to the limit, and there is almost no room to stand!
Some people who didn't squeeze in climbed up the wall of Chu Heng's house and looked at the small TV curiously.
Chu Heng stood next to the TV and glanced at the crowd inside and outside the courtyard. He even spotted Wu Lin leading others to lie on the wall.
Does this grandson know what he is doing?
Who is spying on people so blatantly? Why don’t you come in and have a drink?
With a speechless expression, he looked away, cleared his throat, and shouted loudly to the crowd: "Well, listen up, young and old, you come to watch TV. I welcome you with both hands, but there are a few things I have to explain things clearly in advance. First, let’s take a look and separate things. Damn it, otherwise you will have to pay for it. The second thing is that after watching the TV, you have to take the garbage away with me. Don’t leave it messy after watching the TV. My wife will have to clean it up by then, which I can’t bear to do! ”
“Hahaha”
A group of people burst into laughter. In this conservative era, anything that has anything to do with ambiguity can ignite people's emotions.
“Oh, this person, why does he say everything?”
Ni Yinghong was so embarrassed that she didn’t dare to see anyone. She quickly covered her hot cheeks with her little hands, but she felt sweet in her heart. .
"Don't worry, Director Chu. I won't damage you brick by brick."
"Everyone should supervise each other. If anyone makes Director Chu angry, he will be punished in the end." No need to watch, I slapped his big mouth!”
"Those who are eating watermelon seeds, hurry up and pick up the skins for me, or get out, there are many people outside who can't get in!"
......
After the crowd was in chaos for a while, , and soon became quiet, because Chu Heng had already started to adjust the TV.
"Zizzizi..."
As the TV was turned on, large snowflakes appeared first. After he selected the channel a few times, an image appeared, which was authentic to the movie. war.
At this time, the movie had just started and the credits were playing.
In the cheerful opening song, the camera shuttles through a long tunnel.
The courtyard was silent for a moment, and everyone was staring at the small TV. Even if some people couldn't see the picture clearly, even if some people couldn't hear the sound clearly, they were still watching with great enthusiasm.
After Chu Heng adjusted the TV, he went back to sit down next to Ni Yinghong, and then he was twisting and shaking like a screwdriver sitting under his butt, and he glanced at his watch from time to time.
It’s not that he can’t watch the movie today, but he is anxious to go on a date with his second roommate.
These two bitchy men and women had made an appointment to meet at seven o'clock. It was already half past six, and if they were any later, they would miss the time.
After Chu Heng sat in agony for almost ten minutes, he felt that it was almost time. He rolled his eyes and turned to his wife in a low voice: "What, I don't like watching this movie, I'm going out for a walk. Go.”
“Ah!”
Ni Yinghong stared at the TV without even looking at him.
This little TV fan is hopeless.
Chu Heng shook his head speechlessly, stood up and walked along the wall to the door. It took a lot of effort to push the bicycle out, and then hurried to the grain store.
In less than half an hour, he met Qin Jingru and started the work of preaching and receiving karma in full swing.
Time is tight and the tasks are heavy. It’s impossible not to work hard.
At the same time, Wu Lin and others who were watching TV on the wall of Chu's house finally discovered that Chu Heng was missing.
“What the hell, where are the people?”
Wu Lin's buddy Jin Hong looked at the empty seat in shock.
“I don’t know, weren’t you here just now?” Another person on the side who was responsible for monitoring Chu Heng was also dumbfounded.
You are so specially ordered to monitor people, but you lose them right under your nose because of watching TV. How can you explain to Deputy Section Chief Luo later!
Wu Lin didn't care much about this. He glanced at the two people around him irritably and said impatiently: "It's gone if it's gone. Who knows if we don't tell you? Hurry up and watch the movie. The Japanese are coming to search the village.”
The two looked at each other and thought what he said was quite reasonable, so they turned around and continued watching TV happily. As for Chu Heng, he goes wherever he likes!
Watching TV is so delicious!
......
At eight-thirty in the evening, the cash-strapped Director Chu returned home smelling of green and orange.
The small courtyard was still lively and bustling, with people inside and outside, even more than when he left.
Chu Heng slurped helplessly and pushed the cart into the crowd.
“Give way, give way.”
The disturbed person turned around impatiently and wanted to scold him, but when he saw DaSheng Heng, he didn’t even dare to fart. He quickly ducked out of the way to make way for others.
The TV belongs to someone else, so you can’t afford to mess with it!
Chu Heng returned to sit next to Ni Yinghong for a while, and watched TV together. By nine o'clock, the TV program was gone and replaced by a big round ball.
Seeing this, some people who were watching TV for the first time suddenly became confused.
“Oh, why is there no trace?”
“What’s going on?”
“Director Chu, what’s wrong with this?”
……
Chu Heng's ears were buzzing from the noise, and he quickly stood up and faced the group, explained the situation to them, and finally sent the group away with some persuasion.
This group of people also kept their word. They really cleaned up the garbage on the ground, not even a hairy piece of leather was found.
Wu Lin and others on the wall looked at Chu Heng who reappeared, and suddenly looked at each other.
When did this person come back?
"Stop looking and leave quickly." Wu Lin grabbed the two people, merged with the crowd and left Xiaolihua, and then sneaked into the alley where they had been hiding.
After Chu Heng sent away his neighbors and friends, the house suddenly became quiet, and the only outsider left was his eldest cousin.
He looked at Duan Fengchun who was packing his things and was about to leave, and hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay: "Cousin, it's too late, so don't go back. We'll stay here."
"It's okay, just With my skills, who can do anything to me?"
The eldest cousin shook her head violently, then waved goodbye to them with a strange look on her face, and strode out of the small courtyard.
If she stayed here any longer, she would beg Ni Yinghong to give her some cloth tickets to buy cloth for clothes. It was so wasteful...
Chu Heng looked at his eldest cousin's back and rolled his eyelids helplessly.
He really wasn't worried about this woman, he was worried about the blind hooligans and drunken drunkards outside.
If we really encounter him, we will be killed!
"Chu Heng, come here."
At this time, Xiao Ni poked his head out of the east room and waved to him.
"What's wrong?" Chu Heng turned around and entered the room.
"Don't you want these old clothes?" the girl asked him, holding a few clothes with holes or patches.
“What else do you want after everything is broken like this? Why, you want to give it away.” Chu Heng asked curiously.
"No, I'm going to make a TV cover instead, so it won't get dusty easily." Ni Yinghong put the things aside, and then directed him: "Go and take off the TV, and I'll measure it." Measure the size."
"Yes."
Chu Heng happily walked to the chest of drawers, took down the TV and placed it on the sewing machine.
