Chapter 1248: 306: The plot is revealed! _2
Mo Qishen opened the bag and took out a stack of boxes from the two bags.
“What’s this?” Wu Chenjun came over, curiously picking up one of the boxes, “motorola?”
Having said that because of the English word, Wu Chenjun seemed to suddenly remember something, exclaimed in surprise: “Holy shit! This is a cordless phone! Nice one, Mo Lao Liu! These are so hard to come by right now, and you managed to buy so many at once!”
At this moment, cordless phones had already made their way into China, but since they were all imported, they were extremely scarce and were considered something that even money couldn’t buy! Not just money, even the powerful families couldn’t get their hands on them.
It was a mystery where Mo Qishen had bought these from!
“No big deal.” Mo Qishen casually rolled up his sleeve, revealing a section of his strong, fair wrist.
Wu Chenjun continued, “Nice, nice, this thing is great, how much for two, I’ll buy them.”
Mo Qishen picked up two and handed them to Wu Chenjun, “No need to buy, just take them, one for each person in our family.”
“Then I won’t be polite.” Wu Chenjun immediately handed one to Shangguan Xi, “Wife, this one’s for you.”
Shangguan Xi smiled and said: “You really are unreserved!”
Wu Chenjun said: “We’re all family, there’s no need to be reserved. It’s my first time using this thing, let me see how it works.”
This was the first time mobile phones had come to China, and everyone had only heard about them. In Beijing, not many people had used one yet.
Wu Chenjun fiddled around for quite a while without figuring it out, Shangguan Xi looked at him dismissively: “You are really clumsy! Yangyang, come and help me check this!”
“Okay.” Ni Yang came over, casually pressed something and the mobile phone lit up.
This thing was way too simple for Ni Yang; holding the 2-kilogram brick phone, Ni Yang missed the smartphones of the future.
Mobile phones are really not female-friendly.
Shangguan Xi asked curiously: “Can it make calls now?”
“Yeah.” Ni Yang nodded.
“Try making a call.”
Ni Yang casually dialed a string of numbers, and after a few seconds, a clear ringtone sounded in the living room.
Clueless, Zhao Yu ran over to answer, “Hello, who is this!”
Ni Yang replied calmly, “Your mom.”
Zhao Yu got upset, “What’s wrong with you! Why are you insulting people! Mom what! I’m your dad! No! I’m your grandpa!”
“Turn around.” Ni Yang said indifferently.
“You think I’ll just turn around because you said so, that would be too shameful for your grandpa!”
With the mobile phone in one hand and the other hand in her pocket, Ni Yang strolled towards the direction of the living room.
Zhao Yu yelled into the phone, “Grandson! Why aren’t you speaking anymore? Speak up!”
Just then, a shadow enveloped her.
Unexpectedly.
She somehow sensed a hint of danger in the air, then someone grabbed her ear from above.
“Heard you wanted to be my grandpa, huh?” Ni Yang’s voice was soft and cold, with a slightly rising tone at the end, adding a mischievous feel.
Zhao Yu immediately begged for mercy, “Mom, mom, it’s really you! Misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding! I can explain!”
If she had known it was Ni Yang on the other end of the line, she wouldn’t dare to say such a thing if given a hundred guts.
“I’ll let you off this time.” Ni Yang let go of Zhao Yu’s ear.
Zhao Yu rubbed her ear, then asked, “By the way, mom, what did you use to talk to me just now?”
“This.” Ni Yang shook the mobile phone in her hand.
“What’s this?” Zhao Yu asked curiously.
“Big br…” halfway through her sentence, Ni Yang realized something was off, immediately correcting herself: “Cordless phone.”
The name ‘big brother’ only started in the 90s due to Hong Kong movies.
At this time, people just called it a cordless phone.
Zhao Yu curiously said, “Cordless phone, so it can make calls without wires? Can it make calls anytime, anywhere?”
“Smart kid.” Ni Yang patted Zhao Yu’s head.
“Wow! That’s amazing! I want to buy one too… Mom, can I buy one with all my New Year’s money and pocket money combined?”
Zhao Yu, although fond of sweets, was usually frugal and didn’t spend recklessly, hence she had saved a considerable amount of money.
She could even be considered somewhat wealthy.
Ni Yang smiled and said, “No need to buy, your dad has arranged one for each member of our family.”
