"Commander Gu, please rest assured, this time I brought the latest imported camera, which my father bought from foreigners at the port in Shanghai. He brought ten rolls of film, and I brought two rolls today."

"Hehe, that's great, young man, you're smart."

Liu Jingzhang became even more arrogant after being praised like that.

The old man and the young woman chatted happily, while Zhang Shouyi was dumbfounded. Looking at the young girl in her bright red wedding dress, he thought she was too beautiful. He knew Zhang Hongmei was pretty, but he had never seen her so stunning.

"What do you think, Brother Zhang? Something feels off to me."

"No, no, it's no wonder. You're so beautiful, really. You'd be number one among the fairies in heaven."

Zhang Hongmei and Wang Xinyi both laughed. "Brother Zhang, what kind of analogy is that? Have you ever seen a fairy in heaven?"

"You're the only one I've ever met, so I think no one can compare to you."

"Hehe, thanks for the compliment, but Brother Zhang is quite handsome too."

"Hehe, you're so beautiful, how could I be worthy of you if I were too ugly?"

"Alright, let's stop bragging. Wang Ying, go and call Grandpa and Liu Jingzhang over. We need to take pictures in the courtyard, right? Go ask them."

Wang Ying took off running; she simply couldn't stay there any longer. The two women were dazzlingly beautiful.

Gu Chuanming was waiting for Liu Jingzhang to come along; the kid really brought a lot of stuff.

Gu Chuanming was stunned when he saw the golden boy and jade girl standing in the courtyard. He knew that Zhang Hongmei was pretty, but he did not expect her to be so dazzling in her wedding dress. Although she was still young, her temperament made up for it.

Zhang Shouyi usually had a strange and eccentric demeanor, but unexpectedly, he looked so gentle and refined when he wore bright red clothes.

Liu Jingzhang was also stunned. This was like a celestial being descended to earth. What a perfect couple! His own friend was far inferior.

"Grandpa, how do you like this outfit?"

"Yes, very beautiful, and this headdress suits you perfectly. But what about the clothes?"

Wang Xinyi quickly explained, "Grandpa Gu, these clothes were made by the embroidery shop my family used to run, but something happened, so the good ones were all kept by my family, and there are several sets of ancient wedding dresses." Wang Xinyi knew that the elderly were quite superstitious, especially about wedding dresses and dowries, which had to be made by women with good fortune, to symbolize that their daughters would also have both sons and daughters and live a happy and fulfilling life.

"That's good. My Hongmei will live a happy and harmonious life, with both a son and a daughter, and a lifetime of bliss." Gu Chuanming was relieved after hearing Wang Xinyi's words.

Zhang Hongmei felt very touched by Gu Chuanming's words; this was the blessing and expectation that elders had for their juniors.

Liu Jingzhang also came to his senses. "Zhang Hongmei, you look so beautiful in this outfit. It's a good time to try out my new camera."

"Hurry up, it's too hot," Zhang Hongmei said impatiently.

"Okay, okay, coming right away!" Liu Jingzhang prepared his camera, muttering, "Where can we take the pictures? Is it okay next to the garden? Or in the pavilion, or in the corridor?"

“Okay, Liu, you make the decision, we’ll cooperate.” Zhang Shouyi felt that everything about him was agreeable, and he spoke very kindly. Even in this hot weather, wearing a thick groom’s suit made him feel comfortable all over.

Wang Xinyi is now standing next to Liu Jingzhang. "Liu, there are still several outfits left. We've already taken pictures of them all today. Oh, and we also need to take a family photo."

“Okay, since I’m here today, I can take as many pictures as I want, but I only have two rolls of film, which is about 180 or 190 pictures.”

"Hehe, that's enough."

Zhang Shouyi found a fan and fanned Zhang Hongmei. Gu Chuanming watched from the side and smiled knowingly. Perhaps Zhang Shouyi was a gloomy, ruthless, and cunning man, but he was really good to Zhang Hongmei.

Liu Jingzhang finally got everything ready. Zhang Hongmei was only wearing a dress and a headdress, but no makeup. In this weather, her makeup would run in a moment.

The two took two photos by the flower bed, and then took a group photo with Gu Chuanming. The next photo was taken by the pavilion, where they took the most pictures. First, there was a photo of the two of them, then a photo of the three of them, and finally several more photos of Zhang Hongmei and Gu Chuanming.

They took seven or eight more photos in the corridor. Liu Jingzhang didn't want to stop; the combination of handsome men and beautiful women was truly eye-catching.

Wang Xinyi then took Zhang Hongmei to change clothes, and also gave Zhang Shouyi a set. In fact, there aren't that many styles of men's clothing throughout history. This time, Zhang Shouyi wore a long gown with white cuffs and collar, while Zhang Hongmei wore a cheongsam, a light green cheongsam with peony prints.

Because of her young age and average figure, Zhang Hongmei looked down at the clothes with disdain after putting them on, then pouted, unable to straighten them up.

Wang Xinyi smiled at Zhang Hongmei's actions, "It's okay, I can make it up to you in six months if time allows, don't worry."

"Aunt Wang, I don't dare to look at you wearing a cheongsam."

"How could that be? Although your front isn't very perky, you're tall enough and your back is perky too. Don't worry, it looks good, really good."

"Aunt Wang, do you have a shawl? I'd like to cover myself up."

"Hehe, a shawl is more demanding on body shape, this is fine as it is, trust me."

Zhang Shouyi frowned as he looked at Zhang Hongmei, who had come out with her arms and legs exposed.

"Brother Zhang, don't you think this outfit looks good?"

"It looks good, but it shows too much skin," Zhang Shouyi leaned down slightly and whispered in Zhang Hongmei's ear.

Zhang Hongmei rolled her eyes. Is this what showing too much skin means?

"Brother Zhang, your thinking is too outdated. Let's hurry up, there's still one more set of robes and one more set of everyday clothes we haven't photographed yet!"

Actually, Zhang Hongmei really didn't want to take too many photos anymore; the camera resolution these days is too low. No matter how many photos she took, they wouldn't be clear. But this is a way to preserve memories, a way to keep them as keepsakes.

Liu Jingzhang felt that this outfit should be photographed indoors, so Zhang Hongmei led him into her bedroom and study, and they finally decided to shoot in both places.

After another half hour of work, we still took photos of two people, three people, and this time, one person took a solo photo.

At Zhang Hongmei's insistence, Zhang Shouyi and Gu Chuanming also took a group photo. Seeing how uncomfortable the two looked in front of the camera, Zhang Hongmei laughed heartily.

Zhang Shouyi thought to himself, "As long as she's smiling, it's fine. It's just taking a picture with the old man. Even if it's just taking a picture with a pig, as long as it makes Zhang Hongmei happy, I'm willing to do it."

Gu Chuanming, however, was thinking, who would want to take a picture with Zhang Shouyi? He's the one who stands out, everyone else has become his foil. Luckily, he's old, otherwise he would never take a picture with him.

When it was time to change into their third set of clothes, Wang Xinyi also brought Gu Chuanming a set of long gowns. Zhang Shouyi's was dark green with white trim, and Gu Chuanming's was white with black trim, so they really were a family of three.
