Chapter 43: Taking Pictures

The day before the main day, Lin Xi saw a lot of dishes in the big canteen, although they were mainly vegetables, but meat and fish were prepared, which was also a big deal. The only trouble is that washing vegetables is a big project. Lin Xi only felt that his eyes were full of green, when will this be washed? Wang Xiaozhen and Yu Linlin were late, and Han Meifang saw that the two had finally arrived, and said, "Hurry up, we have to wash it quickly, otherwise we won't be able to wash it today." "I know, Sister Han, don't worry, we will definitely not delay your wedding tomorrow." Wang Xiaozhen smiled and joked with Han Meifang. Han Meifang's face turned red, and she didn't pay attention to her, and worked with Lin Xi.

Wang Xiaozhen and Yu Linlin took a basin to wash vegetables on the other side, muttering while washing. Lin Xi and Han Meifang teamed up, and neither of them spoke. Lin Xi was still a little unhappy, Han Meifang came to Lin Xi early in the morning, the two of them came here together, and until now, the well water is cold again, and Lin Xi's hands are a little numb.

Han Meifang also sensed Lin Xi's unhappiness, she didn't say anything, anyway, people have already come, and they can't run away.

Not long after, a group of half-grown children came over, led by Tang Shu, Tang Shu smiled and said to Han Meifang: "Han Zhiqing, do you want to help?" Han Meifang saw the reinforcements coming, and asked, "Do you know how to wash vegetables?" "Yes, we will all work." The children replied in a rambling manner. When Han Meifang heard the joy, she hurriedly beckoned a few children to come over to help, and more than a dozen children joined the team, which was obviously a lot faster, Chu Sheng dragged Lin Xi and said, "Sister, you rest for a while, I'll help you wash." After speaking, he took the initiative to take over the work in Lin Xi's hands.

Someone helped, Lin Xi was not polite, and rested on the side. Han Meifang was busy arranging people to wash the vegetables, and she couldn't take care of Lin Xi. Not to mention that there are many people and great strength, when the dishes are almost washed, Chu Sheng opened his mouth first: "Sister, you go back to cooking first, and you will finish one more thing." Han Meifang looked at it, there was indeed a little left, and took the initiative to say: "Lin Xi go back, I've worked hard for you today." Lin Xi saw Chu Sheng winking at him, although he didn't understand, he still left obediently.

After the dishes were washed, a group of children surrounded Han Meifang and said, "We're all done!" "Thank you, you have helped a lot today." Thank you!!" "Sister, please let us eat candy." A little girl in the crowd spoke. Han Meifang's smiling face immediately froze, "That, my sister will give you candy tomorrow, okay?"

"Of course - no. Tang Shu looked at Han Meifang's stiff smiling face and said, "Tomorrow is the candy we eat, and today is our reward for our work, which is different." "Yes, yes. "I want to eat sugar, I want to eat sugar. A group of children were chattering for candy, which made Han Meifang have a headache. Where is Han Meifang's sugar, I don't know what to do for a while? Wang Xiaozhen rushed over and scolded loudly: "What's the noise, there's no sugar to eat, hurry up, I want to eat and find your parents." ”

As soon as Wang Xiaozhen's words came out, Han Meifang knew that something bad was wrong. When the group of children heard this, their little faces collapsed, and they all ran away. Han Meifang couldn't stop it, seeing the child running away. Before Han Meifang could speak, Wang Xiaozhen opened her mouth first: "A group of country children know what to eat, you see, if you are fierce, they will be obedient." Although the problem was solved, Han Meifang always felt unsteady.

Sure enough, after a while, Li Qi's mother came over angrily: "Meifang, what's the matter with you? You asked a group of children to help you wash the vegetables?" "Auntie, why are you here?" Han Meifang had just returned to the Zhiqing Point, and before she had time to take a breath, she met the future mother-in-law's Xingshi to ask for guilt.

"Don't talk to me uselessly, I asked you if you let the children help with the dishes?" "yes, they came to help, I ......"

"If you ask them to help, then you will be responsible for bringing them food, running to our house, chasing me for candy, and robbing it if you don't give it. At this time, they will take away all the sugar for their wedding tomorrow, what do you say?" Li Qi's mother interrupted Han Meizhen's words and shook things off, for this matter, she listened to a lot of gossip from the people in the village, and she was very angry, this daughter-in-law caused trouble for her before she entered the door, and she had to teach her a good lesson when she turned back.

This time Han Meifang was dumbfounded. How can this be? Han Meizhen muttered: "I still have to give candy to eat, I don't know, I don't want them to help if I know." So what can I do?"

Since he is married, candy is a must-have, and when Chu Dagen got married for the second time, he also gave candy. If she didn't even have candy in her first marriage, she would lose her face. But candy is not so easy to buy, this is the one who asks for sugar tickets, that is, Han Meifang pulled the marriage certificate to buy those candies, and now they are all gone. Han Meifang wanted to cry without tears, looked at her future mother-in-law and asked, "What should I do then?"

"How do I know? You caused this trouble, you can figure it out yourself. After speaking, Li Qi's mother flicked her sleeves and left. When such an incident happened, her impression of Han Meifang was also a little worse, and it seemed that she would have to control the affairs of the family in the future. Han Meifang was anxious, in addition to being familiar with the educated youths here, how could other people help with this.

When the educated youths heard Han Meifang's crying, there was nothing they could do for a while, because the educated youths did not have sugar tickets in their hands. Han Meifang also knows that this ticket is difficult to do. Wang Xiaozhen made an idea on the side: "Sister Han, we don't have a ticket, isn't there someone who has a lot of money?" ”

Yuan He's face sank and said: "Wang Zhiqing, you have done this generous thing to others quite smoothly, if you really help, you will contribute your own money, if you are jealous of others, it is not your ability." Wang Xiaozhen glared at Yuan He angrily, but didn't dare to say anything. Since Fang Chuanzhi left, Yuan He twisted the male intellectuals into a rope, and Tang Jianguo did not dare to underestimate this young man.

Liu Xia knew about it, although she didn't say anything, but she understood that Chu Sheng must have done it, she was young and thoughtful, which made Han Meifang lose face, or at such a critical time, Han Meifang entered the Li family in the future, and life was not easy. As a result, she became wary of Chu Sheng.

In the end, Li Qi solved this matter, and he went to someone to buy high-priced sugar, which cost a lot of money. originally said that he would make two new clothes for Han Meizhen, but it was directly reduced to one top. Han Meizhen wore a new dress brought by Li Qi, found a pair of new pants by herself, tied a big red flower, and married into the Li family.

On the day of the wedding, Lin Xi and the invited chef cooked seven tables of dishes together, and they were so tired that they had no appetite to eat. Chu Sheng felt sorry for Lin Xi and boiled a bowl of millet porridge, and Lin Xi reluctantly ate it. Li Zhen took a piece of bacon and gave it to Lin Xi. Generally, the host will prepare a little meat and vegetables for the cook, which is considered a thank you gift. The chef has a share, and Lin Xi also has a copy, which is a little less than the chef. But Li Zhen saw that he gave Chu Sheng a piece of bacon in good condition.

The fat chef smoked a dry cigarette, shook his legs, and said, "Girl, you are young, and your cooking skills are good, but it's a pity that your strength is smaller, otherwise you can be the head chef." Lin Xi was so tired that she didn't want to speak, she waved her hand, she was not interested in being a cook. Chu Sheng carried the bacon, helped Lin Xi up, and said to Li Zhen: "My sister is tired, I'll help her go back to rest, you talk to your mother." "Okay, Sister Lin, thank you!" Lin Xi smiled at him and said goodbye to him.

When Lin Xi returned home, he closed the door and said to Chu Sheng mysteriously: "Wait, sister will show you something good." Chu Sheng didn't know what his sister was doing, so he still waited very cooperatively.

After a while, Lin Xi took out a cardboard box, rectangular. Lin Xi and Chu Sheng teased: "Close your eyes, I don't say you are not allowed to open your eyes." "Okay. The little boy obediently closed his eyes. Lin Xi unpacked the package, held the camera in front of Chu Sheng's eyes and said, "Open it!" As soon as Chu Sheng opened his eyes, a black thing appeared in front of him, and he could tell after a closer look: "It's a camera?"

Lin Xi was stunned: "How do you know." "Last time I heard Li Zhen say, his brother took him and Han Meifang to the photo studio to take pictures, he showed off in the class for a long time, said that he saw the camera, and said that the camera looked like it, which was similar to this. ”

Lin Xi also wanted to tease Chu Sheng, but he didn't expect to fail. Chu Sheng saw that Lin Xi was unhappy, and asked cautiously: "Sister, why are you unhappy?" "No, I'll take a picture of you." ”

Everyone is busy going to the wedding today, so no one should come. She can take pictures of Chu Sheng with confidence. Lin Xi had secretly studied it a few days ago, and it took a long time to finally fiddle with it, and for her, a person who can only play with digital cameras, it is really difficult to use this old-fashioned camera.

Chu Sheng hurriedly waved his hand: "No, my sister can shoot it herself." "How can I take a selfie with this? This camera is only used by me, and I'll take it for you." Under Lin Xi's "coercion", Chu Sheng endured his shyness and posed for various photos at Lin Xi's request. In the end, Chu Sheng couldn't help it, and grabbed Lin Xi's hand and said, "Sister, can you teach me?" I also want to learn to take pictures. Lin Xi naturally agreed, proudly showing off his newly learned skills. Chu Sheng learned seriously, and half an hour later, Lin Xi and Chu Sheng's roles were reversed, and Lin Xi became Lin Xi by various posed people. Lin Xi lamented: The apprentice of the church, starving to death the master. Chu Sheng asked tentatively: "Sister, where did this camera come from?" Lin Xi had no choice but to prevaricate: "Ask someone to borrow it, and I will return it in a few days." Also, we are not allowed to tell others about taking pictures. Chu Sheng should go down. But a mystery remained in my heart: who would be so generous to lend the camera to others, and I didn't think that my sister's relationship with anyone was so good.

The excitement of taking pictures has not passed, and Lin Xi secretly took several photos of Chu Sheng's life, when feeding the chickens, when doing homework, and even when napping. Lin Xi was happy to play, but he didn't notice that her small movements had already been noticed by the teenager, but Lin Xi was happy to play, and Chu Sheng secretly cooperated.

A roll of film was used up, and it was time to return the camera. Lin Xi looked at the roll of film and thought about it, it costs a lot of money to print a roll of film, but he is still short of money!

This time, Lin Xi didn't dare to work Chu Sheng to sell things, because Chu Sheng was going to take an exam. During the three-day midterm exam, Lin Xi wanted to comfort him: don't be nervous, just play at your level. But Chu Sheng looked confident. Lin Xi's words of advice were changed to: "Take the exam well, if you can't get the first place, come back and beat it." Chu Sheng looked at Lin Xi and said with a little provocation: "What if I take the first exam?" "Well," Lin Xi really didn't think about letting this kid take the first exam, just if he was smooth. So Lin Xi was asked.
