Chapter 458 Mobile Phone
Upon getting up the next day, Zhang An spent some time finishing the last bit of finishing work on the walker, and then prepared to send it to Ding Yi.
Originally Zhang An was not in a hurry, but Ding Yi called him every day these days to ask if he was doing well.
It can be seen that this man is in dire straits, he is both happy and tortured.
The walker and crib are just finished, Zhang An has no plans to paint them.
First of all, he didn’t have any large lacquer in his hand, and all the lacquer he cut last time was taken away by Zhang and his party.
And Zhang An has not yet learned how to prepare lacquer, which is said to be very time-consuming.
If it is paint, it is better not to use it. This thing is not a good thing for children.
So Zhang An simply didn’t put any paint on it and just left the board bare, which seemed to be okay.
"Mom, I'll go to the city and deliver this thing to Ding Yi. I won't be back for lunch at noon."
It was neither too early nor too late at the moment. It was probably not even noon when we arrived in the city, but if we rushed back without stopping, we would certainly not be able to catch up with the meal at home.
So Zhang An didn't plan to come back so soon. He wanted to inform his mother so that they wouldn't have to wait for him to come back for dinner at noon.
"Zhou Yang, where are you two going? Are you not going to open a store today?"
At the entrance of the village, Zhang An met Zhou Yang and Chen Wenwen. , carrying some things as if going to visit relatives.
"It's not Wenwen. Her second uncle went to cut firewood and fell down the mountain. Let's go over and have a look. Anyway, there is no business today on Sunday, so we might as well not open the door."
It's still there. There is no summer vacation, so it is the off-season for those of them who open restaurants in the village.
But usually there are school students there from Monday to Friday, so business is still possible at noon every day.
In contrast, business was relatively bleak during the two days on weekends, with only a few tourists and some fishing people.
In fact, you can mix it up. After all, no matter how bad it is, there are still more than a dozen people every day. No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. It is better than going out to do it
But since he is Chen Wenwen’s second uncle, he will do anything. Take time to go there.
So Zhou Yang simply chose Sunday, when there were the fewest guests, closed the door, and took Chen Wenwen to visit her second uncle.
"I just want to go to the city. Come up, I will take you to the intersection."
Chen Wenwen's mother's house is not far away, but it is at least necessary to walk there. Most of half an hour.
When it comes to Chen Wenwen's second uncle, Zhang An thinks of that cheerful man with a beard.
The last time he went to help Zhou Yang with his horoscopes, he didn't know Zhang An's background.
So he kept trying to join Zhang An, and finally realized something was wrong. He was almost drunk and in a daze, but Zhang An still acted like a normal person.
But this person is quite interesting. After knowing Zhang An's drinking capacity, he immediately surrendered like a bachelor and gave up.
Zhou Yang was not polite to Zhang An, opened the back door, and got into the car directly with Chen Wenwen.
Not long after, they arrived at the intersection of Maomaoqing. Zhou Yang didn't let Zhang An turn around and send them in, and got off the car directly on the side of the road.
After all, there is only one road for carriages in this village, and there is no place for Zhang An's car to turn around unless it goes all the way to the grain drying field in the middle of the village.
Zhang An didn't plan to go in. Anyway, it only took a few minutes to walk into the village, so after letting the couple down, he continued towards the city alone.
Arriving downstairs of the Ding family, Zhang An unexpectedly saw Fatty Lu, who had not been here for a long time.
“Hey, fat man, when did you come here? Why didn’t you tell me in advance.”
This guy hasn’t been here for several months since he left last time. Zhang An still I thought this guy couldn't sell his fish.
"I just got here, and I met you just as I was going upstairs. I was thinking of coming over to have a look and go to your place in the afternoon."
The relationship between Lu Jun and Ding Yi It's always possible, otherwise Ding Yi wouldn't have introduced him to Zhang An in the first place.
"That's good. Come and help me move something. It's inconvenient for me to carry it alone."
The Ding family is on the third floor, which is not very high-rise, but they still have to climb a few stairs. .
Although walkers and cribs don’t weigh much, their structures are relatively wide, so it’s a bit unrealistic for one person to carry them upstairs.
Zhang An originally planned to move one up first and then come down to get the other one.
But after seeing Fatty Lu, he didn't want to come down a second time, so he requisitioned this guy on the spot. Anyway, the free labor was not used in vain.
Because the shaker was equipped with a motor, it was still a little heavy, so Zhang An left the walker to Fatty Lu to carry.
“Hey, aren’t these things made of plastic? Where did you get them? It’s actually made of solid wood, and the workmanship looks pretty good.”
These days Many children's walkers sold on the street are made in factories, so they are all made of plastic.
This kind of solid wood is rare. Fatty Lu was very curious about where Zhang An got it.
"I made this myself. The plastic thing is not solid, so I just did it myself. Come on, move this."
Zhang An turned the walker upside down on Lu Put it on the fat man's back and let him carry it and go first.
"I didn't expect you to have this skill. When I have a child in the future, I will ask you to make one."
The two of them carried things upstairs one after another, and walked to When I was at the door, I heard a loud cry from inside.
It seems that this little guy is making trouble again. No wonder Ding Yi has been saying on the phone these days that he is almost unable to survive.
After knocking on the door, it was Ding Yi's mother who opened the door. They called aunt before carrying their things into the house.
At this moment, Ding Yizheng was holding the little guy and spinning around in circles in the room. Not to mention, he had a decent posture when holding the baby. He must have practiced it in the past few days.
"Zhang An, stop looking at me and come over and help me comfort you. I'm really at my wits' end. I've already fed you. I'm still drowsy and restless even when I'm holding him."
Ding When I saw Zhang An, I felt like I was seeing a savior, with the word "help" written all over his face.
"It's good to be a little bit promising. It's just a baby. Are you like this?"
Seeing Ding Yi coming towards him with the baby in his arms, Zhang An quickly shook his hand. Put down the bed and take the little guy in his hand.
A few days ago, this guy told them with a happy face that he had a son.
As a result, it only took a few days and I got tired of it.
“You don’t know how I have been living these days. I also want to create a scene of a loving father and a filial son, but this little ancestor doesn’t give me face. He is very good when he is good, but he is troublesome. He was not forgiving at all.”
This was because someone at home was helping to take care of him. If it was just him and Li Li, he couldn’t believe what it would be like.
And the little guy who was crying just now was in Zhang An's hands. Just like he was in the hospital that day, he stopped crying and became very well-behaved. His two little eyes turned around and stared at Zhang An curiously. look in.
"Okay, is this my son or your son? He has been making trouble in my hands, but he is a good baby in your hands. Could it be that I owed him in my previous life?" The child was Zhang An's hand really stopped crying, but Ding Yi felt as if something had been knocked over in his heart at the moment.
“Isn’t this child quite well-behaved? He’s not as exaggerated as you said. Zhang An, give me a hug.”
Fat Lu looked at The little guy was as obedient as he wanted in Zhang An's hands. It was obviously different from what Ding Yi said. He couldn't help but reach out to take the little guy from Zhang An's arms.
"Fat man, don't..."
As soon as Ding saw Fatty Lu extending his hand, he quickly said to stop him.
But it was too late by this time, he had already taken the child from Zhang An.
The little guy seemed to feel that he had changed places. As soon as he reached Fatty Lu's hand, he said a loud "wow".
Fatty Lu didn’t have any children himself. He had never seen such a scene before, and he suddenly became confused.
"You see, my little ancestor doesn't recognize anyone, he only recognizes Zhang An. Return it to Zhang An quickly, you can't handle him."
After hearing Ding Yi's reminder, Fatty Lu quickly handed the little guy to Zhang An like a hot potato.
“Why don’t you ask Zhang An how much he costs per month and just hire him back to take care of the baby.”
Fat Lu has never seen such a magical thing. Who can The crying child at home suddenly calmed down when someone changed his mind.
"Yes, Zhang An, why don't you think about it, after all, this is also half of your son, it will definitely not be a loss for you to take care of him."
Don't say it, Ding Yi I had this idea a few days ago.
Zhang An did not speak, but glanced at the two of them.
"Is this the shaker you made these days? It feels a bit too big."
After the child was in Zhang An's hands, Ding felt more relaxed. Only then did he notice what the two men had brought up.
“These are all made of solid wood and must be larger than those made of plastic. This walker will not be used for the time being. You can find a place to put it. And this shaker is in your bedroom. If there is enough space, put it next to the bed, which will be more convenient at night.”
Then Zhang An asked Ding to plug in the shaker and then told him how to use it.
This thing is actually very simple. Even Mr. Ding learned it after watching it twice.
However, for the sake of safety, Zhang An still told them to have someone watch them when using it.
At this time, the old lady of the Ding family found a small blanket, folded it and spread it on the cradle, making it a thick cushion.
Zhang An took advantage of the situation and put the little guy's hand on it, pressed the switch, and the little guy started rocking from side to side on the shaker.
After finally shaking, Zhang An slowly hid behind the crowd. The little guy didn't even cry, but looked like he was enjoying himself.
Half an hour later, under everyone's gaze, the little guy closed his eyes while swaying and fell asleep.
"Look, I'm not crying anymore. It seems that he likes this thing Zhang An made."
Ding Yi cried with joy, and now he could finally have peace at night.
The little guy didn't wake up until the afternoon. It seemed that he had been making trouble for too long at night, so he needed sleep to replenish his energy.
"Okay, Old Ding, I've been out for a long time, it's time to go back."
After Zhang An stayed at Ding's house for a long time, he was ready to leave. The purpose of this delivery has been achieved, and it's time to go back. It's time to go home.
"Zhang An, wait for me, I'll go with you."
When Fatty Lu saw Zhang An was leaving, he also got up and wanted to leave with him. He came here partly for Looking at Ding Yi's child, on the other hand, he went to Zhang An's place to buy some goods.
"I said you two made an appointment, come together when you come, and leave together when you leave."
Lu Jun ran over all the way, Ding Yi I still want to stay as a guest.
"Okay, Old Ding, you can work on your own slowly. I have to rush to restock this time. I will wait until the full moon to do the rest."
But Fatty Lu insisted. If he wanted to leave, he had no other choice but to send the two of them downstairs.
“Fat man, where’s your car?”
“I didn’t drive here, I’ll take your car back later, but I’ll call Zhao Dong and the others first and ask them to take the car directly. The fish truck goes to your house.”
Fatty Lu did not drive here this time, but drove a fish cart with his men.
As he said that, Lu took something out of his pocket. Zhang An took a look, good guy, isn't this a mobile phone?
Then Fatty Lu made a call and explained a few words before hanging up with satisfaction.
"Okay, fat man, I actually use a mobile phone. When did you buy it?"
Zhang An knew that mobile phones were already available, but he thought it might be a little later in China.
“When I went to the capital some time ago, I saw it and bought it. This thing is light, compact and much more convenient than Big Brother’s thing.”
As he said that, He took out two boxes from his bag and handed them to Zhang An. Looking at the patterns on the boxes, they seemed to be the same as the ones he used just now.
"By the way, we probably can't buy it here, so I bought two for you. The card is also ready. You can take it and use it directly."
Zhang An did not refuse. Fatty Lu’s kindness, he had indeed always wanted to buy a mobile phone, but he was nowhere to be found in this small county town.
I didn’t rush to start the car. I took the mobile phone given by Fatty Lu and took a look. It was a Nokia 6610, a very familiar model.
Because the first mobile phone Zhang An used in later generations was this one, but when he had a mobile phone in later generations, it was already a few years later.
This one is a classic for cracking walnuts, because it comes with game functions.
Zhang An used this small blue screen to play Snake for several years.
Snake knows, in an era when entertainment is scarce, this thing is no less than Tetris. You will become addicted after playing it.
"Hey, this is nothing. Wait a few years, and you will find that mobile phones are more powerful than today's computers."
This mobile phone is currently the most powerful one on the market. It's an advanced product, but if you wait a few years, you can go to the business hall to recharge your phone bill and get it.
At that time, mobile phones with color screens were very expensive, but for those with blue screens and yellow screens, you could get one free by paying your phone bill.
Compared with future smartphones, this is nothing. After all, today’s computers may not be as good as later generations’ smartphones worth hundreds of dollars.
“No way, such a small mobile phone can be more powerful than such a big computer?”
Fatty Lu didn’t have this concept in his mind, so for what Zhang An said Don't believe it at all.
Zhang An smiled and shook his head and did not continue to explain. Time will tell everything anyway.
