Chapter 68: photo first

Grandma Jiang will make a lot of dumplings every Dragon Boat Festival. Su Xiaoman has never made dumplings before, so she doesn’t know much, so she just follows Grandma Jiang to learn. Grandma Jiang makes very traditional red bean meat dumplings. Su Xiaoman is very leisurely and has developed a lot of flavors. He tried adding salted egg yolk, pickled fish, mung bean paste, dried tofu, spicy millet, etc... There are both sweet and salty, and the package is very wanton.

It was the first time to learn how to make zongzi, Su Xiaoman made the zongzi a small one, very delicate and beautiful.

Grandma Jiang said while wrapping: "I won't eat the zongzi you wrap."

After finishing speaking, Grandma Jiang thought that these young people are too scary, they can put anything in the dumplings.

Su Xiaoman: "..." was disliked by grandma.

"Grandma, the zongzi I made are tied and eaten by Xiaotu." Su Xiaoman didn't care, she didn't plan to eat the zongzi she made by herself.

Even if it's a little messy, it's definitely not bad.

She was very curious about this pickled fish dumpling.

Grandma Jiang made a lot of zongzi, plus those small zongzi made by Su Xiaoman, there was a pile of zongzi hills at home, Grandpa Jiang sighed beside him on his hips.

"I can't eat so many zongzi made by your grandma. What are you doing?"

Su Xiaoman: "Grandpa, let's eat slowly."

"There is no room for you to eat slowly."

Grandma Jiang's zongzi had just been steamed and let cool, and they were sent to each household one by one. Any old friend or old comrade in arms would have to send one or two, and the hills at home would be piled up in an instant. No, only those of Su Xiaoman are left.

Su Xiaoman: "…"

Grandpa Jiang looked even more worried.

Su Xiaoman dismantled one, and found that the chestnut egg yolk dumplings she had made were delicious. She let Grandpa and Grandma Jiang eat them.

Why not eat the dumplings she made? !

Su Xiaoman had to wrap some small red bean and chestnut bacon dumplings with Grandma Jiang, and together with the dumplings made before, they were packed and given to Xie Gouzi.

Brother Gouzi should like the dumplings she made.

Xie Mingtu from the recruiting training base received the pile of dumplings and the letter from grandpa. When he dragged these things back to the dormitory, he attracted the attention of many people. All are envious.

"From the elders at home?"

"My parents also brought it to me, but not so much."

"This string of zongzi is really beautiful."

Count, twenty or so.

A feeling of happiness fills my heart.

He couldn't bear to eat these beautiful little dumplings.

Manman's thoughts.

Manman also wrote a small label, remarks that it is hot before eating, which is very gentle and considerate.

She also drew a bunny.

So cute.

The zongzi was brought back to the dormitory, and Shen Mingle and the other animals were about to get a share of the pie. Good brothers must share it together, and zongzi and so on, naturally, everyone should eat together.

In these days, many people sent zongzi from home, and the cooking class also made zongzi. Come get a piece of the pie.

"It was delivered from home? Can you share a share with the brothers?"

Xie Mingtu gave them a few dumplings made by grandma, and Shen Mingle and others took them apart and ate them, and they all praised them.

"Brother Xie, your family is very skilled."

“Zongzi is delicious!”

"Better than the cooking class."

"Daughter-in-law did it?"



Xie Mingtu also took apart a delicate little zongzi made by Su Xiaoman. The sweet smile on his lips hadn't faded, and he bit on the soft glutinous zongzi. The next second, he looked strange. Chew two or three times.

The more you chew, the weirder it gets.

Xie Mingtu: "…"

I ate four in a row.

It's amazing, you can't even guess what the next zongzi will be.

It's as hard to guess as Manman's mind.

After finally finishing the dumplings, Xie Mingtu clutched his stomach and suddenly began to worry about the Mid-Autumn Festival.

It's not bad, but it's weird to avoid clutter.

Xie Mingtu: "…"

I went to the military doctor to ask for some medicine to help digestion. Xie Mingtu was injured by eating zongzi. After eating the zongzi made by Manman, and seeing grandma's zongzi, he no longer had the courage to eat again.

He sent two dumplings to the military doctor.

"Eating less dumplings at one time is not easy to overcome."

Xie Mingtu closed his eyes. He thought that he could eat it all at once. Eating zongzi made by Manman is like opening a gift bag. Some zongzi are really delicious, but Some are outrageous.

But he still ate it.

Xie Mingtu saw the letter that came with Zongzi, especially the medals his grandfather drew, which reminded him of the pictures he saw that night. He liked watching Manman dance, not only on stage , but in another place.

There was nothing in the reply, he just drew a weak bunny.

There is also a woodcarving of a frail little rabbit, lying on the hill made of zongzi, holding on to the vine in his hand.

He dragged the past to gather people and played games with the people from the resident company. Who knew that he hadn't studied for a few days. He and Shen Mingle shot every shot, and the basketball twins were invincible. They won countless games in a row, and then caused public anger. Resulted in being forked out.

Shen Mingle remained, only Xie Mingtu was forked out.

Without him, just because his face looks better, there is a medical building next to the basketball court, many little girls come to see the fun and cheer, Xie Mingtu only played for a few days, attracting a lot of attention, Like the sun obscures the light of their stars.

Inquiry again, she was married at a young age.

How can you, a married young man, be handsome here every day!

Not playing football, Xie Mingtu carves wood carvings on the side. His carvings are very meticulous. Zongzi, a few zongzi leaves were opened, and the inside was also bitten a few times, revealing the sauerkraut fish filling.

The weak little rabbit is holding a handful of vines, which means it wants to eat vines, not zongzi.

Shen Mingle and a few others saw Xie Mingtu's wood carvings, and they were very interesting. This is a weapon to coax girls. No wonder people got married early, but they are still single dogs.

"When I have a girl I like, can you carve one for me too?"

"This little rabbit you carved is so cute."

“…”

Xie Mingtu ruthlessly rejected their request, and the gadgets he carved were only given to Manman.

Su Xiaoman received the small wooden sculpture that he sent with the letter. Seeing the weak rabbit lying on Zongzi Mountain, he felt distressed for a few seconds, and shed a few crocodile tears in his heart.

Next year she will never make dumplings like this!

I followed my grandma to make dumplings.

Hey, even Brother Gouzi dislikes the dumplings she made.

Su Xiaoman held the weak rabbit wood carving in her arms. She liked this wood carving very much. She raised her hand and poked the hard little rabbit with her index finger. The rabbit carved cute cheeks, which almost softened her heart.

I'm sorry for Brother Gouzi's efforts if I don't give him a figure master award.

She bowed her head and kissed the bunny several times.

Take this weak bunny to the art troupe, put it next to his pillow, and poke the bunny when he has nothing to do.

"Can I play with it for a while?"

"My husband carved it by himself." Su Xiaoman didn't let his little rabbit be touched by others, except for sleeping with her at night, he put it in a small box and locked it.

"Brother Xie carved it? It's amazing!"

It's amazing.

But...

Su Xiaoman wrote in the letter that the weak little rabbit has seen too much, but he cannot imagine the heroic little rabbit.

Xie Mingtu over there didn't write anything in the reply.

It's just that Su Xiaoman received a little rabbit with eighteen weapons on his back, this time not on Zongzi Hill, but on many airplane models.

The little rabbit's expression is particularly rebellious, with a small short hand holding a cock, and the body is wrapped in creepers.

It can be said that there are many elements, quite the posture of the rabbit.

Su Xiaoman: "…"

She thought that the toy factory probably lacks talents like you.

.

Several other people were so angry that they gave up the ball and switched to woodcarving.

I have studied for a few days, but I really don't have that talent.

& nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; Su Xiaoman put the weak bunny and rabbit Ao Tian together, fingers played on the cheek of Rabbit Ao Tian, ​​and faced with this kind of rabbit, he wanted to rub him. pinch him...

Time flies, one of them is training and studying at the base, and the other is in the art troupe. comminicate.

Su Xiaoman, who has never written a few letters before, is getting used to writing letters.

The letter went on and on and on. Su Xiaoman told him about the art troupe, the interesting stories of the grandparents at home, and the books she had read recently. Xie Mingtu also shared his life in the letter. Su Xiaoman From each of his letters, I can see that this guy is changing day by day, not only his writing skills have improved rapidly, but also his understanding of people's understanding of things has changed. He has become more mature and stable, and the things in his head are also more loaded. too much.

This little sponge swells more and more.

end of the year.

Su Xiaoman plans to take several vacations at the end of the year. Xie Mingtu's training at the base has ended. He joined the party in August and ranked first in his comprehensive performance. He was recommended to attend the Capital Aviation School to study aircraft manufacturing. Shen Mingle and others entered the north Studying in a space flight school.

In March next year, Xie Mingtu will have a few months of vacation. He will accompany Manman back to the village at the end of the year. He also has to complete a major life event.

Considering that Xie Mingtu will study in the capital in the next few years, Su Xiaoman is also trying to be transferred to the Changyue Art Troupe in a certain northern district to accompany him to live in the capital.

The procedure is almost finished, this is also the choice that the two couples discussed before.

At the end of the year, Su Xiaoman had saved a lot of money, not only her own wage subsidy, but also Xie Mingtu's wage subsidy. Even if Su Xiaoman gave him pocket money every month, he seldom used it and returned it to Su Xiaoman as it was afterwards.

Su Xiaoman: "…"

A man really has no place to spend money, clothes and shoes are of the same standard, and meals are eaten in the cafeteria. He has almost no other expenses, and he is not like other men. , or buy some snacks and cakes to improve your life, or go to the movies, go to the department store, buy gadgets and so on.

In other words, he doesn't need to buy any snacks and drinks by himself. Su Xiaoman and his grandma often make some cookies and cakes for him, especially their Manman. Especially innovative, making him all kinds of snacks, such as baked biscuits, sweet potato strips, mung bean cake, baked steamed bread, milk cake, marinated kelp...

In a word, there is no shortage of snacks.

Several people in the dormitory are jealous of him, and they are arguing that they want to go home and marry him.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, you are so lucky to marry such a daughter-in-law."

"Introduce one to me anytime."



People in the dormitory can get a share of the pie, and the next dormitory is also envious and jealous of their dormitory.

"What else to eat?"

"I thank his wife for bringing it."



Here, Xie Mingtu is tall, handsome, good grades, and equally popular.

If you can't go back to see Manman after a break, Xie Mingtu will go to the nearby mountains to dig some herbs to exchange money. He didn't like to do it before, the herbs were not tasty, and he was too lazy to exchange money. He didn't like places with many people and noisy people. Now, in order to support his family, when he went to the mountains to have fun, he dug up a bunch of herbs and collected them. The station is exchanged for money and handed over to Manman.

twelve.

After saving money for a year, at the end of the year, I can finally be bold.

Sun Fangfang, Zhang Ying and others in the dormitory are the same. At the end of the year, they have to buy some good things for themselves or their family. , also bought himself a new set of clothes and new shoes.

Su Xiaoman went to buy the camera he was thinking of.

She bought a Seagull dual-lens reflex camera, plus the film, it cost almost two hundred yuan.

Other people saw that she bought a camera and were very curious, "Why not buy a radio?"

"You can go to the photo studio to take pictures. Why buy a camera yourself? Our art troupe also has cameras."

"That is, the more waste, the more expensive the film."

"This is also a large object."

"Xiaoman, can you take pictures? Can we take better pictures than the master in the photo studio?"



Su Xiaoman of course knows photography. She also learned photography for a period of time. After getting this old-fashioned ancient dual-lens camera, Su Xiaoman studied for a long time before taking pictures of her grandparents.

Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang waved their hands and said that they would not pat or pat, but their bodies were very honest and ran back to the room to change clothes, and the remaining hair of Grandpa Jiang was combed Over and over again, Grandma Jiang hesitated to get a haircut?

Su Xiaoman waited for a long time in the yard holding her cheeks, and then she waited for the grandparents who were like a girl getting off a sedan chair.

"Come here, stand up, let's take pictures at the door."

The grandparents in front of the camera are very stiff, taking pictures is a big thing for them, they must stay still.

"Grandpa and grandma stay close...don't be like a stranger, grandpa hugs grandma, and moves naturally."

Grandpa Wang and Grandma Wang next door met, and also came over to join in the fun, Su Xiaoman nodded, "Okay, take a photo together."

All the honeycombs ran this way, and even the little brother who was patrolling the door was called to take a photo together.

Su Xiaoman is not a stingy person, she just acted as a photographer and took some pictures for these grandparents, the photos of the couple, the photos with the little grandson, the photos between friends, all took some shots.

Xie Yazhi heard about it from another teacher, and also came to the dry rest center. Su Xiaoman helped her take pictures with her grandparents, and also took two personal photos for Xie Yazhi alone.

Su Xiaoman is now in a relationship with Xie Yazhi, that is, a couple of polite words when she meets her grandparents.

Xie Yazhi asked Xie Mingtu very carefully, but Su Xiaoman told her something generously.

"Are you going to study in the capital? That's good, this kid..." Xie Yazhi was very pleased and happy to hear this.



Several film rolls were used that day. After Su Xiaoman developed the photos, the uncles and aunts of the dry rest house came to claim them, and each photo paid the price of Su Xiaoman's photo studio.

"It doesn't cost that much."

"What you want, Xiaoman, take it."

"We Xiaoman really know how to take pictures! It's better than the ones in the photo studio, and he taught me how to pose."

"Grandpa, Grandma, I want to see pictures!"



After the photos were taken back by the grandparents of various families, Su Xiaoman counted them and figured out the cost, and she even earned more than ten yuan.

So she took the camera to the art troupe and asked the girls in the art troupe if they wanted to take pictures. Naturally, another drop of water fell into the oil pan, causing a crackle. Su Xiaoman took the camera and took pictures of these girls.

A few points, not to mention the scenery, she photographed people, absolutely very beautiful.

"Xiaoman, you are very good at shooting!!"

"The photo is much more beautiful, it looks like I'm tall and thin. The last time I went to the photo studio, I was so short."

"Don't say it, last time I went to the photo studio, a face was photographed like a flatbread!"

"Xiaoman, take some more pictures for us."

"Take some dancing pictures!"



Su Xiaoman's photos are so beautiful that the publicity team of the cultural and art troupe has to take a few more pictures. Seeing her high level of photography, they also took her to shoot a few activities. When Xie Mingtu came back, Su Xiaoman's camera is almost halfway through.

Everyone loves taking pictures at the end of the year!

Su Xiaoman suddenly regretted not buying the camera earlier.

Something went wrong.

The only regret is that she took the camera and took pictures of everyone else, and they took pictures of her...

Su Xiaoman: "…"

Sorry! !

Are these people Parkinson's? !
