Chapter 108: The Waiting of Love

"Students, the darkroom can't leak light, it must be tightly blocked, everyone stands in the darkroom for 10 minutes, you can know whether there is light leakage inside, where the light leaks, and then we will deal with the leakage place......"

What a novelty to take a photo!

The news that Teacher Zhang taught the children to take photos and wash photos caused a huge sensation in Lujiawan, where their ancestors had been farming for generations.

Not only the children flock to it, but also the parents who come to the school whenever they have time, watch the excitement and wait for the photo to be taken. Because Teacher Zhang said the day before yesterday that when the fifth and sixth grade children learn, they will take a free photo of each of the lower grade classmates and villagers.

Books are the ladder of human progress, don't look at him to talk about the Tao and do it meticulously, in fact, I didn't understand it before, and I completely drew it according to a copy of "Photography Textbook of the New York School of Photography" and a "Darkroom Technical Manual" from Sun Xiaoguang.

With the reunification of Germany, East Germans could buy better cameras from West Germany, Japan, and the United States, and these photographic and processing equipment were also bargains given to Sun Xiaoguang, Huang Li'an, Wei Huaming, and Xie Jingwen by people who were studying in Germany.

They just started to feel fresh, they were shooting and washing, they were busy with work, and as soon as the freshness passed, no one cared about it anymore, and they threw their brains into the experimental workshop warehouse, so they had this unique natural lesson now.

The organ was moved out, and the music room became a darkroom. The fifth-graders held their breath and looked around the dark room, looking for even the slightest crevice that might leak light.

The sixth-grade child is doing the last simulation in the classroom, and his assistant and first "student" Xia Yao is demonstrating according to the "Darkroom Technical Manual": "Students, winding is the first link in the development of film, we first use the film importer to pull out the film head, and then use scissors to cut the film head flat, and then put the development can, film, and scissors into the hidden bag, please pay attention to the students, and then we can't see, completely rely on the feel, first carefully wrap the film on the core of the development jar with your hands, and after all the wrapping is done, Cut off the end of the film with scissors, put the core into the development jar, and close the lid before taking the developer jar out of the hidden bag......"

After more than a dozen failures and more than a dozen wasted films, the teachers and students finally washed out the first photo! With bursts of cheers from the children, Lujiawan Hope Primary School officially kicked off the prelude to free photo shooting.

Take pictures of each other, for the principal, for the junior students, for the grandparents, and for the parents who are working in the fields...... The smiling faces were also frozen with the "click, click" sound of the shutter.

Get along with each other day and night for 21 days, cook for him, help him wash clothes, learn to take photos and wash photos with him, and send the children over the cliff together after school every afternoon. Thinking that his vacation was only a month in total, and he had to cut out the time delayed on the way back and forth, as the day of farewell got closer and closer, Xia Yao's heart gradually became a little bitter.

"The food you cook is delicious, just as delicious as my mother's cooking."

It's still kimchi, or fried bacon with dried beans, or egg soup, he still looks like a starving ghost reincarnated, and he eats it wolfing. The more Xia Yao looked at it, the more uncomfortable she became, the first few times she saw the Hong Kong volunteers go, the children cried, and she also cried, although it was also uncomfortable, but it was far less uncomfortable than now.

Xia Yao held her chin and said perfunctorily absentmindedly: "Really? ”

"Well, it's delicious." The charter nodded slightly, and put the last bit of fried bacon and vegetables with juice into the rice bowl.

"Will you come again?" Xia Yao was silent for a while, and finally asked the question she wanted to know the most, with a thousand reluctance and attachment in her words.

A girl who was far away from her hometown and came to this isolated mountain village, she could feel her loneliness and loneliness, and after thinking about it, she said softly: "Yes, but I can't come this year, and I have to come next year at the earliest." ”

"The children are going to cry again," she quickly turned her head away, and two lines of crystal clear tears could not help but flow with tears.

In this small mountain village, which is almost isolated from the rest of the world, it is especially easy to have all kinds of feelings.

The charter was also very unhappy, and wanted to say something to the beautiful and kind girl in front of him, but he didn't know how to speak. And this trip to Lujiawan was a baptism of soul for him, the simplicity of the villagers, the loveliness of the children, and the selflessness of Principal Lu and Teacher Lu...... It deeply shook his heart, which was a little confused some time ago.

It's easy to take her away if she's willing, but is it fair to the children? Is it fair to Lujiawan? What's more, in such a short period of time, he can't tell whether this is love or friendship.

Xia Yao realized that she had lost her temper, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears, and forced a laugh: "I'm sorry, I'm ...... I...... When I think about it, I have to ...... I can't help it. ”

"I can't bear you, I can't bear the children, I can't bear everyone."

"Really?"

"Really, reluctantly."

"Then you should remember to write to us."

"Definitely," the charter took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to say, "not only for the children, but also for you." ”

"Write to me, what if your girlfriend finds out?" Xia Yao's face became more and more red, and her eyes were gentle like water, but she didn't look at him, but turned her head out of the window, and it was already drizzling outside.

"I've said it several times, I don't have a girlfriend."

"I don't believe it, you're an engineer, how can you not have a girlfriend." She glanced back at him, a seductive glance, a deep glance.

There was a throbbing of the charter, and the ghost made a strange sentence: "If you have to have it, it's you." ”

Xia Yaoqiao's face flushed, and she whispered with a little expectation and a little shame: "Don't be kidding, I'm better than the big, it's almost the same as your sister, how can I be your girlfriend?" ”

Two lives, mental age and physical age add up to dozens of years, it is not easy to meet a favorite girl, how can the charter leave regrets for yourself, grabbed her hands suddenly, stared at her eyes with hot eyes, and said with a serious face: "Xia Yao, my sister is already enough, just lack a girlfriend, don't talk about age, you must know that you are a few months older than me." ”

This bold move frightened Xia Yao's heart thumping, and she hurriedly broke free of her hands, shook her head again and again, and said, "Charter, don't be like this!" Calm down, we are people of two worlds and it is impossible to come together. ”

The first confession was rejected, and the charter was anxious: "What two worlds, don't people all live on the same earth?" ”

He is sunny and handsome, he is kind-hearted, he is kind, it would be false to say that he is not moved, but after so many ups and downs, Xia Yao's reason still prevailed, and he took a few steps back and leaned against the door and said: "You have your own career in the Special Zone, it is impossible to stay like me." My parents worked hard to get me to college, and they were disappointed that I wasn't assigned a good job, and I couldn't even go with you.

What's more, I am a young teacher in Lujiawan, and the children and villagers are so good to me, I will persist for three years no matter what. Charter, let's be friends like before, you are so capable, kind-hearted, you will definitely find a more suitable girlfriend than me. ”

Hearing that the reasons for the rejection were all very real problems, a casual smile appeared on the charter's face.

Which of those boys who were rejected by him in college was not a ghost crying wolf, his reaction surprised Xia Yao, and asked cautiously: "You...... You...... Are you okay? ”

The charter glanced at her affectionately, and while getting up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, he grinned and said with a big smile: "These problems you said are not problems, isn't it just three years, I can wait." As for the uncles and aunts, I'm sure they'll agree. ”

I've seen self-righteousness, but I've never seen someone as self-righteous as him, Xia Yao was made laughable, and couldn't help but say: "I don't want to, it's in vain to wait!" ”

Still hard-mouthed, the charter was happy, put down the dishes and chopsticks and walked in front of her, greedily smelled the fragrance on her body, stared at her blushing face with shame, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Remember to write to me, don't think about those messy things, I will come back to accompany you as soon as I have time, until the end of the three-year teaching period." ”

The tone was unmistakable, but the voice was as gentle as water, she had never been so close to a man, Xia Yao's heart was beating wildly, and she felt that the bones of her whole body were becoming soft in an instant, and she didn't dare to move.

"By the way," the charter continued, "it seems that the NB Charity Foundation has a training program for mountain teachers at the end of the year, and I will be waiting for you in the Special Administrative Region." When the time comes, we will look at the sea together, go to Zhongying Street together, go to see the tallest building in Asia together, and meet my mother and my sister. ”

Xia Yao's psychological defense line was completely defeated, and the ghost envoy asked, "What about three years later?" ”

"There is a ** family who will eventually become a family member and get married and enter the cave room!"

He laughed, hugged her to his chest, and kissed her black and shiny hair greedily. Xia Yao was weak, trembling constantly, leaning softly against the door, holding her left hand on her chest, panting violently and closing her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her mouth murmuring softly: "Don't ...... No...... Charter, don't be like this, here is the school ......"

Poor mountains and remote places, two lonely young people are like dry firewood, this night is earth-shattering, this night is like a long stream.

Early in the morning of the third day, the charter was packed again, and the children cried, crying very sadly, and sent one ride after another, until Mr. Lu, who saw him off, pulled down his face, and the children reluctantly returned to Lujiawan.

If the two love is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight?

Love makes life a kind of waiting, Xia Yao neither cried nor sent, but boiled twenty more eggs than before when making breakfast.
