Chapter 66 The long-lost English voice
Televisions in this era were not as advanced as those in later generations.

The signal needs to be received through an antenna, and wind and rain will affect the signal quality.

Whenever there is no TV signal, I have to run to the roof to adjust the antenna.

After adjusting himself, he rushed back into the house and continued watching TV.

And if the image or sound is malfunctioning, you have to fix it with your hands.

After bringing the TV back, the first thing Jiang Hui had to do was install the antenna.

Fortunately, this task was not too difficult for him and he finished it in less than half an hour.

When the sound of "Mathematics Lecture", a program that no one watches in later generations, came from the TV, the excited expression on Zhu Lin's face was as if the two had just finished playing poker.

On May 1 this year, Capital Television was officially changed to China Television.

The Capital Television Station that you see later was the one that was newly reorganized.

I guess many people don’t know about this kind of experience which feels like being possessed by someone else.

And now China Channel does not have as many programs as in later generations. There are only two channels for you to choose from every day: China Channel 1 and China Channel 2.

The most popular ones are definitely not these lectures, but various feature films.

For example, there are domestic and foreign movies.

Of course, foreign films are definitely films from friendly countries at this stage, such as the North Korean feature films "Unforgettable People", "A Sailor's Story", and "The Immortal Warrior", the Hungarian feature film "The Musician Eker", and the Romanian films "The Adventures of Babushka" and "Brave Mihaly".

Domestic feature films include "The White-Haired Girl", "Plain Guerrillas", "Huishuzhuang", "Entrepreneurship", "Snowy Dabie Mountains", "Hui Muslim Detachment", and "The Red Flag of Jingganggang", etc.

These programs certainly cannot satisfy everyone's movie-watching needs, so some older movies will also be played.

Such as "Heroic Sons and Daughters", "Steel Warriors", "Three Visits to Three Cities", "Wind and Thunder in Miaoling", "A Grass on Kunlun Mountain", "The Long Flow of Fen River", "The Visitor on the Iceberg", "Anarhan" and so on.

"I just went to Qingfeng Steamed Bun Shop and bought a pound of steamed buns. Eat a few first. If you're not full, I'll give you more."

Although we had breakfast late, it was almost twelve o'clock when we arrived at Wangfujing Department Store.

When I returned to the dormitory after buying the TV, it was already half past one.

Jiang Hui was busy installing the antenna, and Zhu Lin had been riding for so long that he didn't want to bother making lunch.

"Okay, eat some buns, take a shower, and have a good sleep."

Jiang Hui's physical fitness is very good, so he doesn't feel particularly tired.

It’s just that the weather outside is so hot and I’m sweating all over. I don’t know what to do if I don’t take a nap.

You can't just play poker all the time.

When it rains, it's a good time to sleep.

When the sun is shining, it's a good time to sleep.

For Jiang Hui, sleeping in is a pleasure.

Just sleeping becomes another kind of enjoyment.

"I'm going out to eat noodles with soybean paste tonight. I'm not going to cook."

Cooking dinner on a honeycomb coal stove on a hot day will definitely make you sweat profusely.

It would be better to eat something outside, take a walk, come back to watch TV and write some articles.

"Sure. There's a noodle shop at the entrance of the alley next to us that makes pretty good noodles. One of my colleagues recommended it to me before."

Zhu Lin stretched lazily and stood up to pick up clothes everywhere.

The two of them packed up simply, replaced the coal in the honeycomb coal stove at the door, closed the vent cover, and went out to eat.

A bowl of noodles with soybean paste cost 1.8 cents plus two taels of food coupons, and it tasted quite good.

"It is said that the poor Eight Banners descendants would put various vegetables in their noodles to save face and then pour a little sauce on them. Gradually, it evolved into the current Zhajiangmian." "My favorite noodle dish when I was a child was Zhajiangmian."

Zhu Lin also had a good appetite today and ate with gusto.

It seems that she is really tired today.

I just don’t know if I was tired from riding a bike or from sleeping at home.

"If you like it, we can try it at home later."

After hearing what Jiang Hui said, Zhu Lin couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "The production process of fried noodles with soybean paste seems simple, but each step has its own unique requirements."

"First, the noodles need to be boiled and then rinsed with cold water to maintain their smooth texture, but how long to boil and rinse them is also very particular."

"Then mix the fried sauce with the cooked noodles thoroughly so that every noodle is covered with the rich sauce."

"The key is the production of this fried sauce, which has many tricks. If it doesn't taste good, it will be considered a complete failure."

“It’s only vegetable ingredients like cucumbers that serve as garnishes, which are a little easier to prepare.”

"It's not easy to make the delicious noodles we eat now."

As a fan of Zhajiangmian, Zhu Lin has obviously studied the recipe of Zhajiangmian in detail.

But sometimes, the simpler and more ordinary something looks, the more it requires skill to make it delicious.

Dishes like egg fried rice and boiled cabbage seem like something that anyone can make, but the results produced by different people are vastly different.

On the contrary, some dishes that seem difficult to make are actually not that difficult.

"From what you said, you sound so skilled. It's obvious that you have already mastered the essence. You can give it a try soon."

“I believe what you cook will be delicious.”

When it comes to your wife's cooking skills, you must give her enough confidence and praise her whenever you get the chance.

This way you don’t have to cook for yourself.

Otherwise, once you start, it will be a lifelong thing.

Talking too much brings tears to my eyes.

"I'll try next week."

Seeing that Jiang Hui was so confident in himself, Zhu Lin raised his head a little proudly, revealing his snow-white, slender neck.

After they finished their meal, they strolled around for a while and then went back.

It looks too unsafe, so try not to hang out outside for too long at night.

After returning home, as soon as Zhu Lin turned on the light, he lifted the white curtain covering the TV, then turned on the TV and started watching it with relish.

In Jiang Hui's opinion, it was just a 12-inch black and white TV, so why cover it with a cloth?

Isn't this just like having to take off shoes and use a dust-free room when going to a computer room in the 1990s? Completely unnecessary?
However, it seems that in this era, every household has a curtain covering the television.

Pick it up when you want to look at it, and cover it up when you don’t want to look at it.

The TV is too precious.

While Zhu Lin was watching TV, Jiang Hui simply continued writing the rest of "Desire" next to him.

What's written here are not words, those are all money.

Although the hand speed developed from typing in the later generations is not suitable for writing, but I am used to typing 4000 to words a day. Now if I don’t write more than words in a novel, I feel uncomfortable.

Suddenly, Jiang Hui heard an English conversation, which immediately attracted his attention.
