Zhang Jianxiong picked up the mobile phone box and said in surprise: "Why do you give such an expensive gift? This mobile phone is not cheap, right? It must cost at least several thousand, right?"
Bai Zhixuan said politely: "Actually, it didn't cost any money. It was all given by my dad's contractor. I went over for dinner a few days ago and saw that this suited you very well, so I borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha. You run out all the time and you have a mobile phone. It’s more convenient and you can contact your family if you need anything.”
Zhang Yongsheng unceremoniously opened the phone box and took out the blue phone. Comparing it with his own black palm treasure, he immediately made a judgment. My own one looks too tacky, not as fashionable and trendy as this phone at all, and the screen of the new phone is even bigger.
Looking at Zhang Yongsheng's envious eyes, Zhang Jianxiong joked: "How about we switch?"
Zhang Yongsheng said shamelessly: "Dad, since you said that, I won't be polite?"
Zhang Jianxiong grabbed the phone in his hand and replied: "Don't you have money? Buy it yourself. My daughter-in-law gave it to me. Don't try to take advantage of it."
Zhang Yongsheng scratched his head and said awkwardly: "I was just joking with you, why are you so stingy?"
Zhang Jianxiong pursed his lips and said: "Forget it, what kind of virtues do you have that I don't know? Ever since you were a child, how often have you been short of something cheap? Don't think that I don't know that you want to get along?"
Seeing the father and son bickering happily, Han Aiping smiled helplessly and said, "That's enough for you and me. We are just like children when we celebrate the New Year. Zhixuan gave these two gifts today with all her heart. We will spend the rest of our lives together. I have never received such an expensive gift.”
Bai Zhixuan said with emotion: "The atmosphere at home is really good, and the whole family is happy and happy. It's not like my home, which is cold, empty, and not popular at all. Sometimes Yongsheng comes to stay with me, and it feels a little like home. .When he was away, my house was no different from a haunted house."
Han Aihua took Bai Zhixuan's hand and said, "My child, it's not easy for you either. If you feel aggrieved and lonely, let Ah Sheng stay for two more days. We have agreed to your affairs. When you are of the right age, we will The matter was done within a short period of time, and our wish was granted."
Zhang Jianxiong nodded and said: "As the saying goes, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. There are always some smooth things in this life. A rich family has its difficulties, and a small family also has its own difficulties. Warmth. As long as we can live a prosperous life at home, what difference does it make between being rich and small?"
The family happily had lunch at noon. Although it was just simple home-cooked food, the dining atmosphere was very pleasant. Bai Zhixuan is very adaptable to this kind of family environment. The feeling of having someone to rely on is something she hasn't felt in many years, and she feels particularly at ease.
According to Yunshan custom, the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve is in the evening. After taking a short break after lunch, Han Aihua and Bai Zhixuan got busy. Zhang Jianxiong and his son couldn't cook, so they were kicked out of the kitchen and found things to do by themselves to kill time while waiting for dinner.
As soon as Zhang Jianxiong got the phone, he was extremely excited and immediately pulled his son out of the door. Today is New Year's Eve, and the communications company closed its business an hour early. He wanted to get a mobile phone card before the communication company closed, so he could use his mobile phone to call his friends at night to say New Year greetings and show off.
The father and son rode bicycles to the communications company on the commercial street. It was a busy moment here. In recent years, various new communication devices have emerged one after another, and they have become popular among the people and have even become a status symbol. If you don't have something like this with you, you will be embarrassed to say hello to people when you go out.
Communication companies are also conducting promotional activities during the Chinese New Year, mainly for landline phones and pagers. In particular, the pager sales are particularly impressive, and you can get a 15% discount on one year's service fee. Many people lined up to buy pagers, excitedly choosing various models, and the business hall was very lively.
Zhang Jianxiong and his son squeezed in through the crowd. They were stopped by a salesperson in blue uniform after taking a few steps: "Sir, if you want to handle business, please queue up first. Come one by one and don't jump in line. If you don't If you keep order, we will ask the security to ask you out."
The salesperson seemed to be polite, but in fact she was soft yet tough, which made Zhang Jianxiong feel a little embarrassed. He, a man of several decades, did not want to argue with the little girl. He patiently explained: "I'm not buying a mobile phone. I'm here to apply for a mobile phone card. These are the people who are queuing up to buy mobile phones. We already have mobile phones."
The salesperson frowned and looked at him, shook his head and said: "The mobile phones and cards we have here are all matching and are not sold separately. If you want to apply for a card, you can only use our mobile phone here."
Zhang Jianxiong raised his eyebrows and said dissatisfied: "We already have mobile phones, why should we buy your mobile phone? This is not appropriate for you. Why is it a bit like buying and selling by force?"
The salesperson said with a cold face: "This is a rule set by our leaders. Mobile phone cards are not processed separately. We only accept customers who buy mobile phones here. If you don't buy a mobile phone, you can't apply for a card."
Zhang Jianxiong wanted to say a few words, but Zhang Yongsheng couldn't hold it in anymore and choked: "You are still doing bundled sales! It has been said on TV that bundled sales are not allowed. You are a monopoly and it is illegal. . If you insist on doing this, do you believe I will call you to complain?"
The salesperson said disdainfully: "If you want to make a complaint, go there immediately. Don't block other customers from buying mobile phones. Let me tell you, no matter where you file the complaint, we still sell it this way. What's the big deal if you don't have money?"
The other party spoke very rudely. Zhang Jianxiong became a little angry and said loudly: "Why do you speak so arrogantly? Do you still have any sense of serving the people? You are in the service industry and meet the needs of customers. How can you be like this?" Whoever the leader is, I want to complain now.”
The salesperson drove away: "Our leader is busy and has no time to talk nonsense with you. Get out of here and don't make yourself uncomfortable. If you don't leave, I will call security."
The quarrel between the two people immediately alerted the surrounding customers who were queuing up to shop, and their attention was diverted. Some of them inquired about each other, some looked at the fun with deer-headed eyes, and some made noises and raised rice seedlings, and their words were very unpleasant. Zhang Jianxiong felt very embarrassed and his face turned red with anger.
Chaos began in the business hall, and two security guards who were maintaining order immediately came over and separated Zhang Jianxiong and his son from the salesperson. Other security guards also cooperated to maintain order and kept the onlookers at the periphery. For a time, a large space was vacant in the hall, and the customers became even more crowded.
So someone couldn't stand it anymore and said loudly: "If you have anything to do, go out and talk alone. Don't occupy the latrine and don't poop. It's too crowded here. Everyone is rushing to buy things and go home for the family reunion dinner."
