Chapter 159 The First Camera in the Village (3000 words)
Zhou Chenglei was buckling his belt when he noticed Jiang Xia looking at him and looked up at her, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xia turned around, Telling him to look at his pants.
Zhou Chenglei: "..."
"Is your period coming?"
Jiang Xia looked at him and nodded: "Well, I'm not pregnant."
< br>"Then I'll ask for it in a few years." Zhou Chenglei didn't have much to do with it. Although he was looking forward to their children, he also knew whether they would have children was due to fate.
He went to the drawer and got her a piece of sanitary napkin. Fearing that she would lose it, he hugged her and kissed her forehead: "No rush, we are still young. We will ask for it in a few years."
Jiang Xia: "I am young, but you..."
Zhou Chenglei grabbed her waist and held her in his arms: "I am young too!"
Jiang Xia raised her head in his arms and looked at him with a smile without saying anything.
You are already an old man, how dare you say that you are young?
Zhou Chenglei directly picked her up and kissed her until she was breathless, proving with his strength that he was not only young and strong, but also young and vigorous!
So that day, we went to sea a full hour and a half late. In the extra half hour, Zhou Chenglei boiled brown sugar water for Jiang Xia and washed the dirty clothes.
Jiang Xia, with weak legs and sore hands, vowed never to say he was old again.
Absolutely young, strong and energetic!
In the next two days, Jiang Xia worked as a translator at home, familiarizing herself with information about the shipyard, the fabrics from the textile factory, the products from the plastic factory, and trying the food from the food factory.
And now, I am making dried fish with He Yuhuan and my great-grandmother.
After making this batch of dried fish, Jiang Xia plans to sell it directly to Mr. Hou.
But making small dried fish requires deep frying, and the oil we bought ran out quickly, and both companies ran out of oil coupons.
Nowadays, tickets are still required to buy things. Although some items no longer require tickets, tickets are still required for food, oil, meat, electronic products and other items.
Zhou Chenglei saved a lot of tickets, but all the gas tickets have been squandered by Jiang Xia.
They usually go out fishing and sell the fish to the purchaser. Although the price is cheap, they will give you some tickets every month based on the amount you sell.
However, Jiang Xia saw that they sold so much fish last month, and the tickets Zhou's mother got back only had two gas tickets for four cities and two. Of course, Zhou's mother also exchanged other tickets.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and you need tickets to buy meat, mooncakes and give gifts.
He Xinghuan said: "I'm going to find someone to buy some oil coupons to see if I can buy them."
My great-grandmother: "This year, when the peanuts in the field are ripe, they will be used to squeeze oil. "
Jiang Xia: "Well, let's do this for the time being. I'll think of a way to do it after I have a regular business with dried fish. "
Now that restaurants are allowed to open, I can apply for a small one. A food workshop business license will make it easier to buy oil and grain.
In the evening, Jiang Xia went to the dock as usual to wait for her ship to return. The people from the production team told her that there were two packages sent from Beijing.
Jiang Xia went to get the package first.
Zhou Li looked at the two large packages and asked curiously: "Jiang Xia, why do you receive packages from Beijing every day? Who sends them to you? Do you have relatives in Beijing?"
Jiang Xia: "It's my brother. I asked him to buy something for me."
Zhou Li looked at the two packages and wanted to open them to see what was inside: "Your brother is studying at Beijing University? That's amazing. !”
The address on the package was Beijing University, and she saw it.
Jiang Xia just smiled after hearing this, thanked her, and then left with two boxes in her arms on the pretext of going to the dock to see if her family's ship had returned.
Zhou Li really wants to talk to Jiang Xia more and build a good relationship.
Jiang Xia’s mother-in-law is very capable. If she wants to change her position in the future, or if her son wants to work in the system after finishing his studies, it will be convenient to ask her for help.
Although her son is still in junior high school, let’s get along first and find someone to help him to talk better later.
Jiang Xia left the production team and returned home with two packages in her arms.
She opened the big one first and found two cashmere sweaters inside, as well as a lot of imported snacks, including Coke!
One of the cashmere sweaters should belong to Jiang Mu.
Jiang Xia unpacked another package. It was a Seagull brand camera with dual upper and lower lenses. It looked like a rectangular box with a flip-open lid.
It looked a bit complicated, so she studied it and read Jiang Dong's letter first. One of the cashmere sweaters did belong to Jiang's mother. The letter also said that he had asked someone to load film into the camera.
He bought two rolls of film in total. After using up the film in the camera and not being able to change it, he took it to the photo studio and asked someone to help him take out the film. Don’t take it out randomly, otherwise the film will be exposed. The photos he took before It's all gone.
After Jiang Xia read the letter, she studied the operating instructions and roughly understood how to take pictures. She found the button and clicked it towards Zhou Zhou who was doing homework in the yard and Zhou's mother who was weaving a fish net.
Both of them looked over.
Mother Zhou smiled and said, "Is this a camera? Did Xiaodong send it here?"
Zhou Zhou also had curiosity in his eyes.
Jiang Xia nodded and replied with a smile: "Well, I asked my brother to help buy it. It was sent on time. When the big ship comes back, I can take a photo of the moment the new ship was launched."
< br>
Zhou's mother's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Yes! We will also take pictures when the house is under construction! Your father is very happy if you agree."
Jiang Xia laughed. She asked Zhou's mother and Zhou Zhou to stand together, and she took pictures for them. One piece.
Mother Zhou waved her hands hurriedly: "No, no, don't waste the film. We'll take the photo on the day the boat comes back. Let's take the photo together as a family." Mother Zhou knew that it was expensive to take a photo in a photo studio, costing two yuan. , color ones are more expensive, and enlarging them costs extra.
The owner of the photo studio said it was expensive because the film was very expensive, twenty or thirty yuan a roll.
So she thinks the more people in a photo, the more cost-effective it is!
And what photos should I take if I have nothing to do? It’s a good idea to save it for a big happy event or a family reunion.
Jiang Xia: "It doesn't matter, there are two rolls of film. I'll take a picture of both you and Zhou Zhou."
Zhou's mother said she wouldn't take a picture, and Zhou Zhou didn't dare to take a picture if he saw it. , Jiang Xia had no choice but to take her camera to the dock to take pictures of her old man driving the boat!
Jiang Xia came to the pier with her camera. She took a picture of the bustling scene at the pier, a picture of the fishing boats returning home under the sunset, and another picture of women talking and laughing under the big banyan tree. Photo of waiting for the fishing boat to return home.
I also took a picture of the queue waiting to be weighed at the acquisition office.
Jiang Xia took a few pictures but stopped taking them. She was reluctant to take too many pictures, mainly because she didn't know how to change the film, so she had to save the photos of her old man and the ship launching ceremony.
At this time Tian Caihua and Zhou Chengxin came to Jiang Xia.
Tian Caihua asked curiously: "Xiaoxia, are you holding a camera?"
Zhou Chengxin also looked at it curiously: "I heard that it is difficult to buy this Seagull brand camera. How long have you been waiting in line? Did the team just buy it?"
Jiang Xia was surprised and shook her head: "I don't know, I asked my brother to help me buy it. Come on, brother, sister-in-law, I will take a picture for you."
"What? Take a picture? But, I don't look good in what I wear today!! Are my clothes too old?" Tian Caihua suddenly didn't know how to put her hands and feet. She wanted to take a picture, but she was afraid that she would not wear it well. It doesn’t look good, it’s too ugly when photographed.
"It doesn't matter. Wear something nicer and take another photo another day." Jiang Xia found a place and motioned for them to stand.
Then I took a photo of them with the sky full of sunset, the vast sea, and the busy dock as the background.
After taking the photo, Jiang Xia found that his fishing boat had docked.
She quickly ran over to take pictures of her old man, otherwise his beauty would be blinded in vain!
Zhou Chenglei was holding the rope and was about to get off the boat. He saw Jiang Xia running over with a camera in his hand. He frowned: "Slow down, don't run!"
Jiang Xia clicked at him. one time!
Zhou Chenglei wrapped the rope and came to her side: "Don't run away anymore!"
Jiang Xia was too lazy to pay attention to him, ran onto the boat, and said to Zhou's father: "Dad, I will take pictures for you. . ”
Father Zhou’s eyes lit up when he saw the camera. The boat had stopped and he was about to leave. He turned back and held the rudder very cooperatively, and asked, “Is this okay?”
"Okay! So handsome!" Jiang Xia picked a good angle, "clicked", "That's it!"
Father Zhou hurriedly walked to Jiang Xia's side, ignoring the boat full of fish. , "How to take a picture of this? Take it to me and take a picture too."
Jiang Xia took the camera off his neck and taught him.
Zhou's father is still very smart, and he can do it as soon as he is taught. He hangs the camera around his neck, and then looks for Zhou Bingqiang.
Father Zhou immediately locked onto the figure that made him think about him every day.
Father Zhou shouted to Zhou Bingqiang: "Bingqiang! Bingqiang! Come, come, come! My family bought a camera! Let us brothers take a photo!"
Zhou Bingqiang Wasn’t there a lot of people clamoring to buy a Seagull camera a while ago?
He said that this Seagull brand camera is very difficult to buy. He queued for a long time and couldn’t buy it!
He also said that he would rely on connections to buy it, but he didn’t know when he would be able to buy it.
Even before I bought it, I was shouting everywhere. Gods and Buddhas all over the sky knew about it, and there was no sign of the camera!
Haha, I didn’t expect my daughter-in-law to buy it without saying anything!
Now, he must take a good photo of Zhou Bingqiang’s forced smile!
Zhou Bingqiang heard the shouting and looked over, and saw the camera in Zhou's father's hand with a dark face.
He wanted to buy it, but in the end he was reluctant to buy it. It cost more than 400 yuan, almost 500 yuan!
Father Zhou not only called Zhou Bingqiang, but also called other people in the village.
"National Treasure, Guangcai, come, take a photo! Let's take a photo together!"
Are you kidding, taking a photo is so expensive, of course it can't just be taken by Zhou Bingqiang!
The first camera in the village!
Such a beautiful thing has to be known to the whole village. Let’s take a group photo by the way!
When he talks about it in the future, he can also say that the first photo of you in your life was taken by me. How awesome is that?
"Chao Hua, Chao Ming... Come, let me take pictures for you! Let's take a group photo!" Originally, everyone was busy moving fish and selling fish, but now they were all attracted by Father Zhou!
Taking photos is quite new to everyone, and we all know that it is really expensive to go to a photo studio to take a photo!
So everyone didn’t even want to sell the fish, and ran to Zhou’s father one after another: “Yongfu, take a picture of me driving the boat.”
“Take a picture of me too, I caught a boat full of fish today, so I’ll take this as a souvenir.”
"Take a picture for me too, I want to take a picture of me driving the boat."
......
Father Zhou: "How can there be so much film for one person? Take a group photo! Go to Bingqiang Photos of my new boat!”
Haha... I’m so angry with him!
Everyone was happy to take a group photo, so everyone boarded Zhou Bingqiang’s new boat.
Father Zhou: "Xiao Xia, help us take the photo."
So Jiang Xia took a group photo of everyone on Zhou Bingqiang's new boat.
The villagers were sitting or standing on both sides of the boat. There were baskets of fish on the boat. Father Zhou stood in the middle with his arm on Zhou Bingqiang’s shoulders, smiling proudly!
Jiang Xia also suggested that everyone take a photo at the entrance of the production team. Soon the production team will be reformed and become a village committee. The production team will become the most lasting memory of their generation.
