Capítulo 904: Chapter 905: At Most, It’s a ssage from Miles Away
They played outside for over an hour before returning ho at Jiang Mianmian’s urging.
When they got back, the Jiang family mbers had just arrived ho not long ago.
The old lady was indeed pleased to see that Jiang Mianmian obediently went out to play and didn’t stay ho reading all the ti. This child is good in every way, just too committed to studying.
For a child her age, how could she not want to go out and play? During this sumr in the village, she must make sure Mianmian plays to her heart’s content.
“Grandma, we’re back.” Jiang Mianmian said happily, holding a wreath made of willow branches.
“My big granddaughter is back, and you all ca ho just in ti. It’s ti to eat, go wash your hands.” The old lady affectionately patted Jiang Mianmian’s head and face, smiling as she said this.
Thanks to Jiang Mianmian, the Jiang family’s dinner was still very sumptuous, and each Jiang family mber ate with great satisfaction. As they ate the delicious pork, they sincerely hoped that Jiang Mianmian could stay at ho for a longer period of ti.
In the evening, after dinner, the Jiang family mbers gathered in the main room to watch TV together.
Just as they were watching the critical part, Jiang Mianmian’s BB machine suddenly started beeping.
At first, the Jiang family mbers thought it was a sound from the TV, but then they saw Jiang Mianmian take out a palm-sized black square from her pocket that glowed with a soft green light. As soon as this thing appeared, it imdiately attracted the attention of all the Jiang family mbers.
Jiang Mianmian looked at the ssage from Cheng An on the BB machine: Mianmian, Tang Lin and I are eating regional cuisine, it’s very delicious. Next ti, if there’s a chance, I’ll take you to try it.
This was already the third ssage from Cheng An that Jiang Mianmian received today. Ever since she had this BB machine, Cheng An basically checked in with her three tis a day, like clockwork.
In the morning, he would ask if this little lazy pig had gotten out of bed, at noon he would flaunt whatever good things he’d seen, not forgetting to say that she truly missed out by not being there. Now, in the evening, after eating sothing delicious, he had to share it with her again.
Seeing the words on the BB machine, Jiang Mianmian could even imagine the proud expression Cheng An must have had while saying these things. She couldn’t help but laugh.
“Mianmian, what are you holding?” Zhiwen and Zhiwu, seeing the fresh new gadget, stopped watching TV and gathered around Jiang Mianmian, asking curiously.
Jiang Mianmian looked up and found everyone in the room was staring at her.
She had been so focused on reading the ssage that she hadn’t noticed their glances.
“Yeah, Mianmian, what is that glowing thing you’re holding?” the old lady asked curiously as well.
“Grandpa, Grandma, Big Brother, Second Brother, this is called a BB machine. It’s a type of communication device. I have a number, and no matter how far away the other person is, they can leave a ssage through a paging service. The ssage I just read was left to by Brother Cheng An in Haicheng.” Jiang Mianmian explained simply to the Jiang family mbers, then handed the BB machine to the old lady.
“Wow, how amazing, Mianmian. Isn’t this what they call long-distance communication on TV?” Zhiwu responded, exaggerating.
“Haha, Second Brother, it’s not exactly long-distance communication. At best, it’s a long-distance ssage. It doesn’t have such magical functions.” Jiang Mianmian was amused by Zhiwu. When he ntioned long-distance communication, she thought of cell phones from her past life.
Although BB machines were highly sought after in this era, for soone like her who was used to smartphones, a device that could only display ssages without allowing replies was sowhat impractical.
