at the same time.

In the post and telecommunications office diagonally opposite the health center.

Zhang Caihe was taking Guan Lei to go through the procedures for installing a telephone.

There is an old man in front who is handling it.

They sat on a long wooden bench opposite the counter. Zhang Caihe was a little nervous and kept twisting the corners of her clothes with her hands.

Guan Lei took her hand, patted it, and whispered, "Mom, don't be nervous, it's okay."

"I am mainly worried about what if she doesn't recognize the money?"

"No, it will be done in her name. Her ID number will be registered on it. She will have to admit it even if she doesn't want to. Mom, don't worry about it. The staff here will ask her for the money when the time comes."

Zhang Caihe felt relieved.

"Next," the uniformed staff behind the counter called out.

Zhang Caihe and Guan Lei walked over.

Guan Lei sent the household registration booklet over.

The staff member took a quick glance, turned the household registration booklet to the page of the head of household, and checked it with the booklet on the table.

The users registered in this book are those who have been registered.

Guan Lei quickly said, "It wasn't my dad. He installed it in my name. Just the page I just saw."

The staff member flipped through the pages, looked up and asked, "Guan Youshuang?"

"Yes, it's me."

"Why do we have to use your name? The name on file here is the householder's name."

Guan Lei was not panicked and said, "It's like this. I'm married and live far away, so I've always wanted to help my parents install this phone, but I've put all my money in a fixed deposit. I originally wanted to wait until the fixed deposit expires in the second half of the year before installing it. Who knew you would offer such a big discount this time?"

The staff member frowned and interrupted her: "So how are you going to deal with the expenses this time? The total cost this time is 2800 yuan."

"We want to buy on credit this time. The regular payment will be due on the 1st of next month. As a farmer, you know it's not easy to make a few dollars. It would be uneconomical to withdraw it now. Oh, by the way, this is the guarantee letter written by our former village chief. Let me bring it to you."

Guan Lei said this and quickly took out a small brown paper envelope from the cloth bag and handed it over.

The staff member took it, looked at it, nodded, and said, "Okay, I understand. You can buy it on credit, but the problem is that the installer and the registered account name are inconsistent..."

"It doesn't really matter who I write to. I just want to show my filial piety. Besides, it's on credit. My father hates owing money to others the most. I'm afraid he'll think too much."

"The main thing is that you are buying on credit, and this is not a small amount after all."

Guan Lei said: "Don't worry, I will definitely pay for it. My parents and I have discussed it. If you don't believe me, ask my mom."

Zhang Caihe nodded quickly.

The staff looked at them and said, "Okay, can you write? Fill out the application form."

Guan Lei shook her head embarrassedly.

The staff member picked up the pen and filled in Guan Youshuang's name and ID number on the application form.

"Okay, then just put your fingerprints here for the repayment date and name." The staff member said, circling these two places.

Guan Lei kept saying thank you, gave a thumbs up, pressed the ink and stamped it.

"Remember to pay it back on time. By the way, the money is now on your head. Do you have any contact information?"

Guan Lei quickly said yes, and calmly gave Gu Errong's phone number, saying, "Don't worry, I will pay you back immediately after the fixed term expires."

"Well, then the formalities on your side have been completed. Other staff will contact you later to install it on your doorstep."

"it is good."

After completing the procedure, the mother and daughter walked out holding hands, looking very happy.

"Mom, don't worry now. I told you everything will be fine."

"Well, my precious daughter is really smart. I saw Qinqin bought a new pair of canvas shoes a few days ago. They are very nice. Let's go and buy you a pair."

"I haven't looked for Qinqin yet when I went back this time. How is she doing recently?"

"It's the same as always. Seeing you getting married, her mother got anxious. It seems she has introduced you to several families but it didn't work out." Zhang Caihe was quite proud. "I heard that she doesn't like the man. She either thinks he is poor or ugly."

"Maybe it's fate that hasn't arrived yet."

"She must be jealous of you. I'd say it's fate."

As they talked, the mother and daughter walked towards the shop opposite.

When Guan Youshuang arrived at the post office, the two of them had already walked away.

She walked straight to the counter, handed over her ID card, and said, "Hello, did someone just make a phone call in my name?"

The staff member took the ID card and was stunned when he looked at it.

He looked at the photo on the ID card and then looked at Guan Youshuang.

Who was that woman just now?

He took out the application form and checked the ID card, and it was correct.

He nodded and said, "Yes, someone just used your household registration book to handle it. It should be your family member. Don't you know about it?"

"It's like this. The person just now is my sister. She has always wanted to install a phone for my parents. We were supposed to come together today, but I just ran into an acquaintance and talked to her for a few more words. Then she came with my mother to handle the matter. But she can't read, so she might have written my name by mistake."

"Since we are a family, it doesn't matter whose name it is. Just go back and tell your sister to pay you back on time."

Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "That being said, fingerprints are usually required for this kind of business. The money is on my head. If I really investigate and find that the name and fingerprints don't match, it will still affect your work."

When the staff member heard that they were going to investigate, he said nervously, "It was your sister who made the mistake. It's none of my business."

"She can't read, but you can read, right? You can just ask her to provide her ID card and then process it after it's verified, right?"

Guan Youshuang continued, "It's actually very simple to correct it. My sister's name is Guan Lei. I'll write down her ID number for you. You just need to change it."

As she spoke, Guan Lei picked up a pen, pulled a piece of waste paper from the counter, wrote Guan Lei's information on it, and when she was about to hand it to the staff, Guan Youshuang suddenly thought of something and wrote Zhao Yang's phone number on it.

The staff looked at the flamboyant calligraphy and couldn't help but look at Guan Youshuang twice.

One of them can’t even recognize words, and the other has beautiful handwriting. Are they really sisters?

He quickly corrected his name and ID number. When he saw the phone number, he said in confusion: "I misread the household registration book. Did I misremember the phone number as well?"

Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "Maybe, but don't worry, the phone number I left is absolutely correct. If you don't believe me, you can call me and try. By the way, can I return this service?"

"Of course not. The discount this time is huge. There are only a few households here. We have already registered them."

Guan Youshuang nodded with relief.

It’s right that you can’t return it.
