Siheyuan: After being reincarnated as a master's daughter

The news that an old man living in the courtyard at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang bought a color TV was told to all the neighbors in the courtyard in the past two days, and it became a hot topic in Nanluoguxiang.

You know, this is the first color TV in the whole alley! The news spread quickly throughout Nanluoguxiang, becoming a hot topic for people to discuss after dinner. For a time, the courtyard was filled with envy and amazement. Some families even went to No. 95 Nanluoguxiang to visit the color TV, wanting to see it with their own eyes. Those who didn't have the opportunity to go there in person asked for details about the TV through various channels.

"Have you heard? The old man who lives in the courtyard house at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang bought a color TV!"

"Really? That's amazing! I've never seen a color TV before!"

"That's right. It is said that the picture is very clear and the colors are very bright!"

"Oh, how come their family is so rich! When can we have something good like this?"

People were talking about it, full of curiosity and yearning for this color TV. The uncle's family became the focus of the alley, and everyone envied and envied them. After all, in that era, owning a color TV was definitely a symbol of identity and status.

People's enthusiasm for television is growing day by day.

But television consumes a lot of electricity after all, and no household can allow others to watch TV for free every day.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui thought that they should consult Yi Zhonghai first. So they went to Yi Zhonghai's house and told him their ideas.

"Old Yi, Old Yan and I have come up with an idea." Liu Haizhong said.

"Oh? What method?" Yi Zhonghai asked.

"We are thinking of convening a hospital-wide meeting, and then propose that those who want to watch TV dramas share the electricity bill for the TV, as well as the cost of repairing the TV in the future. This will not only solve the problem, but also be fair and reasonable," Liu Haizhong explained.

Yi Zhonghai nodded after hearing this: "This is a good idea, we can consider it. But how to implement it specifically?"

"We can work out a detailed plan, such as allocating costs based on the number of people in each household or the amount of electricity consumed. This will be easier for everyone to accept," Yan Bugui added.

After some discussion, the three finally decided on this plan and decided to hold a general meeting of the whole hospital as soon as possible. They hoped that through this meeting, everyone would share the cost of the TV and promote harmonious relations between neighbors.

Plenary Session

Tonight, after get off work, when each household had finished their meal, all residents of the community gathered together while the afterglow of the setting sun was still there to discuss an important topic - relevant measures for watching TV.

At the beginning of the meeting, Liu Haizhong spoke first: "Today's incident was initiated by me and your third uncle. The cause of the incident is this: the TV belongs to the first uncle, and we are all honest people. We can't take advantage of others every day, right? The reason why we called everyone to hold this meeting is to discuss with everyone that if anyone in the courtyard wants to watch TV in the future, each household will have to pay a little money. After all, the first uncle spent a lot of money to buy the TV, and the electricity is not used in vain!"

As soon as Liu Haizhong finished speaking, everyone started to whisper. Some said they should pay, while others were reluctant. Seeing this, Liu Haizhong continued, "Everyone be quiet and listen to me. Since the number of people in each family is different, the amount of money to be paid is also different. However, this is just a preliminary idea, and the specific charging method needs to be discussed. Of course, if a family does not want to watch TV in the future, they will not have to pay. In short, this matter is decided by everyone together, and I hope everyone can speak up and put forward their own opinions and suggestions."

The people sitting below looked at each other. Some of them thought it was a good idea that would allow everyone to enjoy TV together; while others were worried about the cost and thought it would increase the burden on the family.

After a heated discussion, the minority finally obeyed the majority and agreed to this matter.

So, everyone started to discuss how much the per capita fee for watching TV should be. Some people suggested that each person pay 2 yuan per month, which can ensure the normal operation and maintenance of the TV; others suggested that the fee should be charged according to the number of family members, which is more fair and reasonable. Everyone expressed their opinions and argued endlessly, and the scene was very lively for a while.

Yi Zhonghai looked at everyone discussing fiercely and finally couldn't help but stood up. After clearing his throat, he said, "Okay, stop arguing! I think we can arrange it like this. The children in every household don't have to pay, after all, they don't have much source of income. But the adults have to pay some money, and we don't ask for much, just 1 yuan per person, and it will be enough to pay for the electricity bill. In this way, we can reduce everyone's burden and ensure the normal operation of the TV. What do you think?" He said while observing the reactions of the crowd.

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed. You know, for a family like the Third Uncle's with several children, if they all paid, it would be quite a burden.

After everyone agreed, Yi Zhonghai asked his daughter to go back and get a blank notebook to write the names, and then started registering the families one by one.

As each family paid and wrote their names, Qin Huairu finally couldn't help but take out the money she had prepared in advance. She walked up with a smile on her face and said, "Uncle, aunt, this is two dollars for the two adults in our family. Thank you for your hard work."
