Chapter 545: A Prediction Reveals a Complicated Matter

After giving her daughter a good scolding, Chen Lijun happily returned to Beijing.

Suizi bathed the children in the evening, even though the room was heated, she still turned on two electric heaters.

Using electric heaters was seen as stealing electricity, and people were on the lookout for it.

At that time, electricity was collectively paid for and everyone was charged a fixed amount. Individual meters weren't used and the use of high-power appliances was prohibited.

Wang Cuihua sat on the stool, helping Suizi take care of the two tykes. Seeing the snowfall outside, she couldn't help but express her thoughts.

"Turning on the electric heaters while it's snowing, won't that be too ostentatious? I've heard that the electricity inspectors are coming today."

Usually, electricity theft inspections took place during snowfall. The warmth from the power cables entering the house would melt the fallen snow. Any house with bare cables was certainly stealing electricity.
