Chapter 845: Exhibition and Homecoming
"Oh, I remembered when you said that, you were a little conscienceless and covered for him at that time! Look at it, the side of this dress is your skirt! Xiao Tao, you took off this photo of your aunt for me! I also bought you a big ice cream, why didn't you take it? When your aunt beat you, you were bent on disgusting your aunt, right? Sister, look at this child, you still hold grudges!" Jin Yue's mother remembered this time, but she was not calm. She is a face-saving person, and she posted a photo of her chasing and beating her child, if this spreads, her reputation will not be good.
"Brother and sister, I think it's just hanging, it's good! These things that Xiao Tao made are a little interesting, just like yesterday's thing. You see me playing chess with your old Jin, at this time the two of us are still strong, right? Xiaotao and Xiaoyue are still in elementary school, right? Look at the present, we are both old, and they are also older...... Time flies!" "My father was also standing in front of a wooden plank at this time, looking at the pictures above, his eyes were misty, and he didn't know what he remembered.
"Hey, what about me? Second master, this is you, right? What are we doing here?" The people in the room slowly dispersed, because their figures more or less appeared in the photos, one in the east and one in the west, and the grandfather actually found his own image with his hands behind his back, but like Jin Yue's mother, he also couldn't remember what he was doing at the time.
"Your grandson, your heart and eyes are crooked, aren't we burying your wren! This is not the forest outside the east wall of the Temple of Earth, you say that you don't take a picture when your grandfather is boxing, not when our old brothers pout their butts and dig a pit? Grandpa, look at it, look at me, my two are so useless? I still lick my lips when I watch children eat popsicles! What about others? You come over to me. Today I fought with you, and you usually don't get sick yet. Gotta take it down, I'...... I owe you!"
When the second master heard his grandfather's greeting, he took out his reading glasses from his pocket and put them on, leaned over to look at the photo, and immediately remembered what the scene was at that time. At first, he could still complain to Grandpa Hong Tao, but after a slight mistake in his eyes, he immediately found an old man pedaling a tricycle in a photo next to him, who was looking at a little girl on the side of the road licking popsicles with a particularly unproductive look, as if he was going to pounce on it and take a bite. This old man doesn't need to ask. It must be himself, now he can't calm down, his old face is red and black, he turned his head to look for Hong Tao, and when he found that Hong Tao had already slipped to the door of the main hall and was ready to escape, he was even more angry.
In the entire five-room connected hall, there are thousands of photos, most of which were taken by Hong Tao himself, and a very small number of them were found by him from the photo frames of his grandmother's house, his own house, and his aunt's house. For example, the family photo on the shadow wall at the door. These photos are taken of some trivial life and urban changes of ordinary people in the hutongs and capital, which are classified by swallows according to the age, and then enlarged and retouched. Pick and choose to post it. This is the photo exhibition of the old capital that Hong Tao said, which is actually his own photography exhibition.
According to Hong Tao's urine, the photos he took were the same as his broken mouth. It's all about swords, nothing too serious. Most of them were his relatives, friends, and neighbors. The truest side that is inadvertently revealed. For example, the little uncle was running all over the yard with his head covered and was beaten by his grandfather, the aunt was crying and wiping her tears when she saw the clothing store burning, a few old men on the table were drinking three rounds of food and five flavors were raising the bar with a red face, and Jin Yue was wearing a pair of pants with big flower bell legs and a black and white bat shirt with a curly head. At that time, it was the most fashionable dress, but unfortunately ten years later. How do you look stupid.
As for the shooting technique or something, then don't ask too much. Don't think about the composition, lighting, shutter or anything, Hong Tao can only ensure that the pictures he took will not be false, and the people and buildings can be seen clearly, not to mention the rest.
Although it is not a sunny and glorious moment, this kind of photo that is closer to life can make people enter the memory. At the beginning, some people kept scolding Hong Tao, but slowly everyone fell silent, gathered to the places they were interested in, and carefully looked at the portrayals of themselves one by one, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Mother, aunt, and grandmother all secretly wiped away their tears, and couldn't help laughing when they looked at a certain picture in a blink of an eye.
In fact, there are not only photographs in this exhibition, but the westernmost hall is no longer a piece of wood, but has become a series of delicate wooden shelves, and the front is sealed with glass. The shelves were filled with sets of villain books, toys for children of that era, and some knick-knacks in the house. There are handmade and store-bought, and many things are probably not available in the city at present, and children may not be able to do them now. These are all Hong Tao's collections, some of which he found everywhere, and more of which he bought from scrap yards.
"Hey, hey, hey...... And my paper gun and belt, which are made of calendar paper. Da Jiang saw the little toys that impressed him the most, which was the kind of paper-stacked big-bellied box that Hong Tao made for him at the beginning, as well as the paper-stacked armed belts, which were all remade by Hong Tao later.
Hong Tao not only made paper guns and paper armed belts, he made a set of those things when he was a child, as long as he remembered them. What match guns, ball guns, slingshot guns, cigarette cases, square bags, match skins, popsicle sticks, root pulling, crutches, sandbags, fart curtains, paper balls of blowpipes, small boats with leaves, ice cars, traitors...... In addition, the candy man, the noodle man, the empty bamboo, the duck car, the flamethrower, the tin train and so on, a big room was full.
He plans to keep these things, and when he is as old as the second master, he will go to rent the largest exhibition hall in China at his own expense and really hold an exhibition. Or simply set up a museum, and then make a brief description of everything, not only put these things in it, but also widely collect things that you didn't think of or didn't have, and put them together for future generations to see, to see what kind of virtue their grandparents' childhood was.
Not to mention, these photos and gadgets really evoke everyone's memories, after leaving the beamless hall and entering the West Cross Courtyard, everyone is still talking about the memories hooked up by those photos, some laugh together, some sigh together, the atmosphere is very good, even the grandmother who has never liked to talk about history with children is full of interest to talk about her life as a girl when she was young, it sounds very interesting.
The West Cross Courtyard is two small closed courtyards, which were originally the kitchen and dining room for the emperor to cook meals. To the south is a house with seven south rooms and a courtyard, and there is also a similar courtyard to the north, which has now been made into two independent homes by Han Yan. The roof, like Hong Tao's small courtyard, is all enclosed by a large glass cover, and the temperature here is constant regardless of wind or rain. Back to the office, she has her own kitchen, but only serves Western food, Han Yan will be lazy, she directly contracted the kitchen to Ralph and got a small Don Diego branch. The kitchen and dining room are in the courtyard, and the open-air kitchen is made on site and transparent in all directions, which saves the house on the one hand, and gives people the illusion of being very high-end and characteristic on the other hand.
The rest of the houses are still the same on the outside, but the inside has become like an ancient palace, with carved beams and walls, gold and silver, and a piece of hardwood classical furniture. There is no fixed purpose in these houses, you can chat and drink tea, drink coffee, smoke cigars, play cards and games, each room is independent, and no one will disturb you when you close the door. Of course, Yanzi will definitely not provide any special services, and the service staff here are all the girls from the original beauty salon, only providing a place to rest, chat, eat and rest, as for whether you bring someone yourself, or meet someone here, it is not under Yanzi's care.
Next to this south courtyard is a north courtyard, which was originally a place for the emperor to bathe and rest, and that courtyard is also covered by a large glass roof, which still has a bathroom, but has been turned into a spa and sauna, as well as beauty salons and fitness equipment. This is a women's return home, only women are allowed to enter, and all men are stopped. But there is an unfair rule here, that is, men and women can enter the center, and women will not let men enter when they return to the center, Hong Tao feels very unfair, this is discrimination!
The area where the wedding is being held is the largest of the four courtyards of Sainomiya, where there are two main halls and a courtyard, which can be used as an auditorium and event space, accommodating more than 100 people, and it is just right to have a cold lunch or something.
In fact, there is no attractive project for this kind of retreat, so why would others be willing to pay a lot of money every year to join the club? There is only one reason, social safety! This is a park, and it is also a large closed building complex, with two gates in the east and west, and five or six meters high red walls and blue tiles, and the outside does not know who is doing what inside. For some people, going to a hotel, a song hall, or a restaurant feels too ordinary, too eye-catching, and boring, but coming to this place can be superior to others, because it is not someone who wants to come here, and there must be a member to introduce and pay the membership fee before becoming a member.
This kind of artificially improved business method is still quite attractive to people in this era, especially those who are not short of money in their hands, but they can't spend it. In addition, it is also a social occasion, since the people who come are either rich or expensive, then there must always be a little intersection between everyone, whether it is to talk about business or work, you can find more channels and ways, the more members the greater the attraction. (To be continued......)
ps:ps: The meeting inside, this word is not allowed to be sent, saying that it will cause adverse effects, so I replaced it with a return office, don't scold Hong Papi for being illiterate...... R1292
