Chapter 1568 Refrigerator (Refresh)

"You can only stand up straight if you have money."

"Yes, if you have money, people will look up to you wherever you go."

Ah Guang looked at the people flowing around him, and then looked at Dong Qing who was standing beside him and occasionally stole glances at Ye Yaodong.

Chen Shi was secretly looking at Dong Qing, which made him feel troubled.

He called Ye Yaodong and said, "Go and do your own thing. We also want to go around and take a look. Let's separate and do our own things."

Ye Yaodong was craning his neck to look ahead, he turned back and nodded, "Okay, you look after your shop, I'll go shopping in my mall, let's meet at my factory at dinner time."

"Row."

The two agreed to go their separate ways, and A Guang also pulled Pei Dongqing in another direction.

Ye Yaodong took his three children, Lao Xiao and Chen Shi to the department store.

I haven't been to the city much in the past few years, but the location of the department store has definitely not changed. It's just that the surrounding area is more lively, with a constant stream of people and vehicles coming and going, and the cries of various vendors interspersed among them, it's a thriving scene.

The spring breeze of reform and opening up has blown across the land of China. After more than a decade of gestation and accumulation, it is now the 90s, which is full of hope.

This was a time of passion. The melody of Teresa Teng's "I Only Care About You" echoed in the streets and alleys. Individual economies sprang up like mushrooms after a spring rain, and "ten thousand yuan households" setting up stalls to start their own businesses could be seen everywhere.

As they walked, they talked about the changes in the streets today, which were in stark contrast to previous years. Moreover, they had been to other places and big cities before, so they had seen a bit of the world and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Ye Yaodong was even more touched, "This is truly a spring..."

"Yes, it's so good now. Everyone can trade freely without receipts, and there is no need to hand everything over to the collective for unified distribution. It's also much easier to find a job now. It's nothing like before."

Lao Xiao is in his forties or fifties and has a lot of feelings.

The three children were so busy that they looked around, chattered, and jumped up and down excitedly. Fortunately, their adults held them tightly.

"Let's go, let's find a place to eat first. It's already noon, so we can go shopping slowly after we finish eating."

"There's a shop selling food over there, let's go take a look."

A group of people went around to find something to eat first, and then after they were full, they couldn't wait to rush to the mall.

The three children couldn't wait any longer and started looking for the refrigerator as soon as they arrived at the mall. Ye Yaodong didn't even need to ask, Ye Xiaoxi would stop passers-by and ask.

"Sister, you are so white and beautiful. Apart from my mother, you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen. Can you tell me where the refrigerator is? My father wants to buy me a refrigerator."

The young girl who was suddenly pulled over instantly smiled and laughed out loud with joy. He even took out two White Rabbit candies from his pocket and handed them to her, pinching her chubby face.

"How cute! The electrical appliances are on the top floor. You can see them when you go upstairs."

"Thank you, sister. You are kind and nice."

Ye Yaodong also thanked her and then pulled her forward.

"Are you brave enough to talk to a stranger casually?"

"Ah? How do you know where it is if you don't ask us? And that sister is so beautiful, she must not be a bad person."

"Don't judge a person by his appearance, understand? Besides, I know where your father is, why would I ask others?"

"Ah? You know you're not telling me."

"You didn't ask, and you didn't give me a chance to lead the way. You just pulled a random person in and asked him right after you came in."

"Ok."

Ye Xiaoxi looked back again, then pulled him hard, "Dad, Dad, look, that sister keeps looking back at you."

Ye Yaodong looked back, smiled, and quickly straightened Ye Xiaoxi's head.

"It means your father is good-looking."

"But I think that brother is better looking and more handsome than you..."

Ye Xiaoxi pointed at the boy in front of her who was wearing bell-bottom pants, a floral shirt with a particularly large neckline, his legs shaking, and a lit cigarette in his hand.

Ye Yaodong took a look and his face darkened instantly, "What kind of aesthetic is this? Let's go, do you still want to buy a refrigerator?"

"Isn't it good-looking? But I think that brother is very good-looking."

"It's not a good look."

"Second brother, do you think that brother is good-looking?"

Ye Chengyang stole a glance at Ye Yaodong, then shook his head, "I think Dad is still more handsome."

Ye Chenghu interrupted, "Nonsense, his clothes and pants are so nice..."

Ye Yaodong glared at him and said, "You are not allowed to buy anything except the refrigerator later."

Ye Chenghu immediately fell silent and closed his mouth.

Lao Xiao smiled and said, "Let's go see if there's any stock in the refrigerator. Although it's not cheap, everyone's living standards are high now. You may have to queue up, and it may not be in stock."

Ye Yaodong also thought of the First Department Store in Shanghai, where the electrical appliance section was packed with people and everyone had to queue up.

"Just look around first, buy what you can, then put it aside, and move it last. This way you can shop around with peace of mind."

"Dad, please hurry up..."

Ye Xiaoxi walked in front and pulled Ye Yaodong, asking him to hurry up.

The other two boys also hurriedly broke free from the adults' hands and started climbing the stairs.

There is a loudspeaker at the entrance of the corridor shouting: Be careful of pickpockets.

"Walk slowly, don't get lost in the crowd, hold hands, or I'll send you back now."

The two guys in the front stopped immediately and hurried back to their side.

A group of people climbed the stairs straight to the top floor.

The four- or five-story building was crowded with people everywhere. There was no floor without people. It was packed.

The electrical appliance area was also crowded with people. There were several long queues waiting to get tickets to make their purchases. Many people were carrying fans. As the weather is hot now, electric fans are the best-selling items.

Ye Xiaoxi pointed ahead excitedly and kept jumping up and down, "Refrigerator, Dad, refrigerator, the refrigerator is there."

"See, let's get in line."

Ye Chenghu asked curiously: "How can we carry it home when it's so big?"

"It's not moved here. You have to pay the money and open the order first, then take the order to the designated warehouse to pick up the goods. You may not be able to pick up the goods immediately, or you may have to wait for a few days."

"Ah? You can't move back home right away?"

"It's hard to say. We need to see if there is any stock, or if we need to adjust the stock. If there is something ready, we can naturally ship it home immediately."

"Ok."

Chen Shi said, "I'll go and queue for you. There are so many of us, and it's hard for several children to squeeze in. I'll go first, and I'll call you when my turn comes."

"also."

Ye Yaodong took his three children in to look around and take a look at other small appliances and refrigerators on display.

Check it out in advance, and when it’s your turn in the queue, you can directly report the brand and model, which saves you trouble.

His house has basically everything except a refrigerator, and the other appliances have no appeal to him.

However, Lao Xiao and his three children were all delighted by the sight. Although they had seen these things before, they had never seen so many of them displayed together. It was truly an eye-opener.

The three children kept screaming as they walked. If the sales guide hadn't kept a close eye on them and stopped them from touching anything, they would have already started to touch the items.

It wasn't just them who had their eyes shining, the people around them too, all looked at it with drooling eyes.

Ye Chenghu was overwhelmed by the sight. "Dad, which refrigerator should we buy? There are long ones here, and the same one as the one in the school canteen."

"Let's buy a vertical double-door one. The kind in the school canteen is called a freezer. It has a higher power consumption. It won't work at home. I have a TV at home. It can't be powered by electricity and it will easily trip the circuit breaker."

After listening to this, Ye Chengyang pointed to the Xiangxuehai sign in front of him and said, "Then buy this?"

Ye Xiaoxi pointed at another one and said, "Buy the one with two little figures. That one looks good."

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "This is Haier. You like cartoon characters? Okay, this is it."

"Well, there are two little people on this refrigerator, which looks better!"

Ye Yaodong directly asked the shopping guide if there was any stock.

They were lucky as they didn't have to wait. Not many people buy this double-door refrigerator. Most people buy single-door ones or freezers. Those who buy double-door refrigerators tend to choose imported brands, such as Panasonic and Siemens.

The model they wanted happened to be in stock, so he simply asked the shopping guide to write down the model number, and then waited in line to pay and place an order.

"Dad, after we buy a refrigerator, can we go shopping again?" Ye Xiaoxi looked at him with sparkling eyes, grabbing his sleeve and shaking him back and forth.

It seemed like she was asking, but actually she was acting like a spoiled child and begging him.

"what do you want to buy?"

"Then I'll take a look."

"Then after you pay the money here, I'll show you around."

"Okay~"

The three are already looking forward to it.

But the line was a bit long and they waited for more than half an hour before it was their turn.

The refrigerator they chose costs 2800 yuan each. No wonder it is in stock and they don’t have to wait. This refrigerator is equivalent to more than a year’s income for an employee.

I heard that the main feature is durability and energy saving.

Ye Yaodong didn’t know whether it was durable or energy-efficient, but since his child liked it, he bought it.

After the invoices were issued, the shopping guide wanted to take them to move the goods, but he just said he would come later and that he wanted to go shopping around in the meantime.

The three children couldn't wait any longer, and as soon as he finished speaking, they pulled him out.

Ye Chenghu urged, "Dad, hurry up, we are running out of time again."

"It's still early for the sun to set."

"Then hurry up, you can hang out for a while longer."

Ye Yaodong looked at his watch. He still had to buy some gifts and then visit his godfather. He felt that it was a bit too late to go back today.

I left home too late this morning. In fact, I should have left home before dawn. When I arrived here, the shops were just open.

Then you can finish shopping in the morning, visit in the afternoon, and go home in the evening. This is the reasonable way.

"Let's not go home tonight. Let's stay in the city for one night and take you back tomorrow. I'll call your mother later and ask her to give you half a day off tomorrow morning so you can go to school tomorrow afternoon."

Ye Chenghu clenched his fists excitedly, "Yeah, that's great!"

Ye Chengyang and Ye Xiaoxi both shouted excitedly.

"Great, I can hang out a little longer today."

"Everyone is so excited. I hope they don't fail the final exam. One is thinking about going to Shanghai for high school, another is thinking about going to Shanghai for junior high school, and another is thinking about visiting his sister during the summer vacation."

Ye Chenghu raised his chin confidently, "Dad, don't worry, the teacher said I have made great progress!"

Ye Chengyang also said happily: "Dad, my brother is fine, so I am sure I will be fine too."

Ye Xiaoxi raised her hands and jumped non-stop, "Dad, me too, me too, I will definitely get 100 points, I have scored 100 points several times."

"Okay, as long as you have confidence, there will be rewards if you do well in the exam. If you do poorly, don't even think about it. Just drift on the sea and don't even think about coming ashore."

Ye Chenghu patted his chest and said, "Dad, don't worry, you have to have faith in me! My calligraphy has won awards!"

"That's because your father has been nurturing you well since you were young, buying you calligraphy copies every day."

"Stop talking, these are just tears. Others are having fun, but I have to write more than others every day."

"This is for your own good too."

Ye Chenghu turned a deaf ear to the noise and saw a stationery stall in front of him, so he rushed in, and the two people behind him also ran forward in a hurry.

The three adults could only follow the three children.

The three children have such wide-ranging interests that they would go into every store and have a look around, so everyone else can have a great time shopping and buy whatever they need.

It’s a good thing that they didn’t plan to go home at night, so they could shop until the mall closed.

Ye Yaodong also bought some cigarettes, alcohol and tea, and planned to take his three children to visit his godfather after the mall closed.

Everyone has to go to work tomorrow, so it’s not suitable to visit someone’s home. Today is a good day off.

The time I agreed with A Guang was just right. The shopping mall here basically closes at around 4:5, and we get home around :.

They, three adults and three children, came out at the closing time of the mall. Each of them had a full net bag in their hands and looked very satisfied.

Ye Chenghu looked around at the door, "Dad, are we going back now?"

"if not?"

"I see that many shops along the street are still open..."

"Haven't you bought enough yet?"

"No, I was wondering if we should eat out?"

"Are you addicted to eating? We have a place to eat tonight."

Ye Chengyang asked: "Dad, what time do we come to move the refrigerator tomorrow?"

"Come and move the things when you wake up, and then go back directly after moving. Come on, stop looking, go find a tractor, and go back early." After Ye Yaodong said this, he was about to take the things in Ye Xiaoxi's hand and help her carry them.

But she turned around and said, "I don't want you to take it. I can take it. I'll take it myself!"

"See how much you're cherished. Okay, I'll give it to you."

The three children walked side by side, excitedly comparing who had more things.

At this time, there were fewer people around. After all, the shopping mall was about to close and it was almost time to cook, so most pedestrians were going home.

Ye Yaodong was not worried that they would be squeezed out by the crowd, so he let them walk on their own and he followed them.

After finding the tractor, they went to the factory. Along the way, he wanted to see if he could run into A Guang and the others so that he could take them with him.

However, when he arrived at the factory, he didn't see them. He asked other people and they said they didn't see them either. So he let it go and thought they might still be looking for a suitable store outside.

I don’t have time to write, there is one more.
