Chapter 97: Picking Apricots
The photo studio of the 70s is incomparable to that of a few decades later, and the layout is very shabby.
The background of the young man and woman who took a group photo in front of Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi was a background wall painted with a few bamboos, although the two sat close, they looked restrained, and the photographer asked the two to get closer together, and the man was more ashamed than the girl.
When the two finished filming, it was Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi's turn.
Jiang Xinyu pointed to the table in the photo studio, saw the plastic flowers hanging on the shelf, and asked the staff: "Can you put the table in front of the background wall and put the flowers on it." ”
The staff of the state-run photo studio is also an enviable job, just like the service staff in the supply and marketing cooperatives and state-run hotels, they are all above the top, and compared with the customers of later generations are God, the service personnel in this year are God.
In what era, they all respect Luo Shang first and then respect people, people see that both of them are dressed really well, the man is talented, the woman is handsome, it looks like there is a formal job, and it can be regarded as politely according to Jiang Xinyu's meaning to put the table and flowers in front of the background wall.
On the background wall are several bamboos painted in watercolor pastel, and the two sit on a bench with a table with purple plastic flowers in front of them.
The photographer thought it was really nice to do this, and commanded: "The gay man made a mistake by putting his shoulder back." ”
Chen Yi made a mistake on his shoulder, Jiang Xinyu tilted his head to his side again, and his eyes were bent.
"Okay, stay still."
The bright light flashed, and Jiang Xinyu almost blinked uncontrollably.
The photographer asked, "Do you want another group photo?" You two don't have bicycles, I'll take a picture of you outside. ”
Jiang Xinyu's eyes lit up, this can be had!
There is also a big tree outside the photo studio, the car is parked there, Chen Yi is on the ground with one leg, his face is facing the photographer, Jiang Xinyu is sitting on the back seat, holding his waist with one hand.
Her face was already burning because there were many people around her watching, and she heard someone whispering that she was going to shoot on the bicycle too.
After the group photo was taken, she began to take pictures of a single person, and she was really a little unbearable when she was watched and photographed by everyone. But if I don't leave a few photos now, I won't know what my past will be like in a few years.
Jiang Xinyu had a big idea, and asked the photographer to go to the flower bed over there to shoot, she stood in front of the flower bed and touched her braids, her head was half lower, and her smile was like a flower, and the photographer didn't need to teach her to pose and clicked the shutter.
Limited by the conditions, for Jiang Xinyu, today's dress is unpretentious, but to the people around her, she looks beautiful and fashionable. The young girls saw that Jiang Xinyu was not dressed up with powder and grease, and she didn't even wear a floral skirt, but she looked unusually beautiful. The envious eyes of the gay men turned to Chen Yi.
There are too many people, and when people are watching and taking pictures, his face is stiff, so Chen Yi simply doesn't shoot a single person. When she returned to the photo studio, Jiang Xinyu asked again: "If you don't shoot a single, do you have no money?" ”
Chen Yi let out a casual "um", "So you can give out today's money." ”
Jiang Xinyu looked up at him in disbelief.
The corners of Chen Yi's lips were hooked, and there was a smile in his clear eyes, "Lie to you, is it enough to take one shot, do you want to take a few more?" ”
She shook her head, "There's no place for me to play, let's shoot later." ”
After he said "um", he said to the staff: "Four photos of each group photo, two single photos." ”
The comrades at work looked at him in surprise, a photo is not cheap, even if it is a young man who is going to get married and comes to take pictures, he will not wash so many group photos at once, "How many inches do you want?" ”
"A single photo is a two-inch one, a six-inch one, and a group photo of all six inches."
"It's a total of nine pieces of five." The staff quickly typed a note, "Come back in seven days to pick it up." ”
Chen Yi handed over the money, put the strip back in his pocket, and the two of them went out of the photo studio, he asked, "Go to the temple to pick apricots?" Come back and have a meal, go to the park, and watch a movie in the afternoon? ”
He was asking for her opinion very seriously.
Jiang Xinyu has no opinion, as long as she is not allowed to work in the field with a hoe, it will be fine.
The bicycle went out of the county seat, walked for more than half an hour, and the two met a seller on a bicycle on the middle of the road, and a wooden box was fixed on the back seat of the car, and the yellow box was written with the word "sorbet" and covered with a layer of cotton.
This is an old-fashioned popsicle, a penny, Jiang Xinyu wants to buy two, Chen Yi doesn't eat it, she buys one to sit on the back seat of the bicycle and eat.
Unlike the milky and fruity ice creams of later generations, popsicles are cold and sweet, like popsicles frozen in the refrigerator.
The apricots on the apricot tree were small and red, and when she looked up, the sunlight was shining through the gaps in the leaves, and it didn't take long for her to dizzy.
Chen Yi climbed the tree, picked one that was pleasing to the eye, wiped it on his hand and threw it for her.
Jiang Xinyu ate one, her eyes were squinted sourly, it was sweet, but not strong, it should not be fully ripe.
If it's not ripe, you have to pick it back, otherwise I don't know if there is any more next time, and if you put it for two more days, it will definitely be sweet.
The cloth pocket was stretched open, Chen Yi picked it up on it, and Jiang Xinyu picked it up at the bottom.
The voices of children could be heard in the distance, and there was a village a few kilometers away.
Chen Yi saw that he had picked a lot and jumped down from the tree.
The two of them got on the bicycle like thieves and slipped away.
The apricots were hung on the front handle, Jiang Xinyu sat behind her head and kept scratching her back, always feeling that there was something unknown in her clothes moving, and she couldn't touch the place.
She tugged at the clothes around his waist, "You stop, I feel worms in my clothes." ”
Jiang Xinyu jumped out of the car, pulled her shirt out of her pants and shook it vigorously, but the itchy feeling did not disappear.
Chen Yi watched her tremble, told her to stop moving, and reached out to pinch a gray half-large spider on her head.
Jiang Xinyu's whole body is hairy, it's okay not to see this thing, but when she sees this thing, she feels that there are spider legs crawling on her all over her body, and her scalp is going to explode.
"You can help me see if I have it in my back."
He asked her to squat, pulled open the collar of her shirt at the back of her neck and looked in, there were red marks on her smooth back that she had just rubbed, the shirt was wide, he didn't look at it indiscriminately, he inevitably saw the curvature of the side, and looked carefully inside the shirt, and sure enough, there was a gray spider lying on it.
"Yes, yes?" She asked eagerly.
Chen Yi pretended to be calm and said "um".
Then he reached in from the hem of his shirt, and inevitably scratched her back, and she shook uncomfortably but did not flash.
After a while, the spider was caught by him, in order to prove that he was very serious just now, and he definitely didn't mean to take advantage of her on purpose, he also took the spider and shook it in front of her eyes, "That's it, it should be gone." ”
Jiang Xinyu was fed up with this spider, jumped three feet high, and couldn't wait to go home to take a bath. In order to eat a few not sweet apricots, her body was about to become a spider's nest, she rubbed her arms together, and complained: "Why don't you have it on you?" "It's really unfair.
Chen Yi coughed lightly, "You help me check it?" ”
Jiang Xinyu looked at his serious appearance, not sure if he was teasing her?
She smiled and said maliciously, "You take off your shirt, I'll help you take a look." "Who wouldn't?
His jade-like pupils crossed with a smile and patted the car seat, "Let's go." ”
