Chapter 469 Imperfect Family Portrait
Lin Qingshan felt that his second brother's expression was a little insincere and couldn't help laughing.
Ning Xinrou saw the naked mockery on his face and pulled his arm.
"Making fun of your own brother? You're quite the man."
Lin Qingshan touched the tip of his nose and said, "Okay, then I won't laugh anymore."
Lin Tang fiddled with the camera and said, "It's time to take the photo. Who's going first?"
Everyone said in unison, "Dad first."
On this point, the Lin family still has a tacit understanding.
Lin Tang responded, "Alright! Dad, how do you want to shoot it?"
Lin Lu glanced at the yard, which was both grand and clean.
"I'll just take the photos in the yard, and then compare them when I'm old. By then, this house will be old, and your mother and I will be old too..." he said with a smile.
He is not like other people who refuse to accept their old age. He is very calm about it.
"Okay, I promise to take a picture of Dad looking his best."
While Lin Tang was speaking, Lin Zhicheng and others gathered around her, staring at the camera in her hand with eyes full of curiosity.
Lin Lu stood in front of the yard, holding an enamel pot with Lin Tang's name on it, standing there unnaturally.
Looking at the camera, his smile was a little stiff.
It was obviously not as natural as when I worked yesterday.
Seeing her father was too nervous, Lin Tang put away the camera and said, "Dad, don't be nervous. If you are too nervous, the photos you take won't look good."
Lin Lu didn't know why, but his whole body stiffened when he looked at the camera.
"...This is out of control, what do you think we should do?" He scratched his head, wondering.
Li Xiuli heard this as she came out after she finished braiding Lin Fei's hair.
"What's out of control?"
Lin Lu ran to his wife's side, his old face aggrieved, holding the enamel pot, helpless like a child, "Wife, I'm nervous."
Li Xiuli: "..."
"What's there to be nervous about? I'll shoot with you." Lin Tang said decisively.
After saying that, he grabbed Lin Lu and wanted to go to the scenic spot.
I was stunned when I saw him holding a new enamel pot in both hands.
"Where did you get this new tank? What are you doing with it?"
Lin Lu slapped his forehead and took his daughter's certificate from under the book on the table.
Put it in Li Xiuli's hands.
"Wife, Tangtang won another award, she brought it back from Hai City.
"This enamel pot is a prize. I'll take the pot, you take the certificate, and we'll take a picture. What do you think?" he said as if offering a treasure.
This was the first time Li Xiuli heard this and she looked at Lin Tang in surprise.
Lin Lu also looked at her daughter proudly.
Lin Tang quickly raised his camera and took a picture.
She had a feeling this one would be good.
Photos with natural expressions are the best.
Lin Lu was stunned. "Tangtang, is it... finished?"
Lin Tang nodded and replied, "Okay, I think it should be good."
The couple felt relieved when they heard this.
"As long as it looks good."
After hearing Tangtang talk about how much film would be consumed when taking photos, Li Xiuli decided to let her take a family photo first.
"Tangtang, you have a count of the film rolls, so why don't we take a family photo first? If anyone wants to take a photo later, you can take them slowly."
Lin Tang agreed, "Okay!"
The Lin family’s main gate was chosen as the location for the family photo shoot.
Two stools were placed at the door, and Lin Lu and Li Xiuli sat on them. The four children stood in front of the old couple, the eldest couple on the left, and the second couple on the right.
The family looks harmonious and happy.
When they were about to take the photo, Lin Lu found that his daughter couldn't come over and frowned.
"Tangtang, what about you?"
How can there be no Tangtang in the family photo?!
At this moment, I had no idea that I had a little son.
Lin Tang adjusted the camera while saying, "Let me take a picture of you first. I won't be with you today. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future! Isn't my third brother here too?"
Comrade Gu practically gave her the camera as a gift, even including a lot of film. Wouldn't that mean she could take whatever pictures she wanted from now on?!
There are plenty of opportunities.
Although Lin Lu and Li Xiuli were comforted, they still felt a little uncomfortable.
The excitement of taking photos was almost gone in an instant.
Li Xiuli still wanted Tangtang to be in the first photo, so she asked, "Is this camera easy to use? Can we ask a villager to help take the photo?"
Lin Tang shook his head, "I'm afraid it won't work."
The villagers are so scared of learning to ride a bicycle that they are afraid of wolves and tigers. Let alone learning to take pictures... forget it.
"It's okay, Dad, Mom, just think of it as going to the photo studio today to take some individual photos. They want to give us a family portrait, and I just happen to be at work and don't have time to go."
After comforting her family, she snapped her fingers and motioned everyone to look over.
"Don't look down, look at the camera. I'll count one, two, three. Everyone, shout 'Eggplant' together. One... two... three..."
After three shouts, the word "eggplant" filled with laughter was shouted out in unison, and the Lin family's first imperfect family portrait was created.
Next——
Lin Tang took a group photo of his parents and the four little ones.
The old couple took a photo each.
The first and second wives each took a small family photo.
Each couple took a photo together.
A group photo of the little ones, and then a separate photo of each one.
I have finished taking the photos that I need to take at home.
The Lin family was sitting in the yard, curiously sharing their experiences taking photos, when Mu Sheng came over with a backpack on his back.
Seeing the Lin family members talking in unison, he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Master, Master's Wife, I'm here to bother you again."
Lin Lu smiled and said, "Don't bother me, Tangtang was just taking a picture of us, do you want to take a picture?"
Mu Sheng: “?”
The country guy, who only knew that he had to go to the county photo studio to take photos, looked confused.
I don't know how to react.
Li Xiuli felt sorry for the young man in front of her who was about the same age as her third child.
He also truly treats him as his own junior.
He immediately said, "Qingshan, go find a set of the third brother's clothes and let Ah Sheng change into them. It's a rare opportunity for our family to take a photo, so Ah Sheng should come too."
"Okay." Without waiting for Mu Sheng to refuse, Lin Qingshan stood up and dragged him into Lin Qingmu's house.
Mu Sheng handed the things he brought with him to Li Xiuli with a dazed look on his face.
He was taken away without a word.
Li Xiuli glanced at the things in the basket, smiled and scolded, "Why did this child bring something again?"
The things he took were all pretty good, a piece of fat meat, some wild grapes, and a dozen persimmons.
Lin Lu knew what his disciple meant, and he sighed.
"Take it. He will feel uncomfortable if you don't."
Thinking of his apprentice's bad reputation in the brigade, his old face was filled with distress.
He is obviously a hardworking and honest child, but I don't know why he was spread like this by those gossips.
If he had not been friends with Lao Yuan and knew that Lao Yuan was not a treacherous and insidious person, he would not have accepted Mu Sheng, and he would not have known that the young man who was slandered like that actually had such a character.
Li Xiuli is a mother and is naturally sensitive. Her eyes became sore when she heard this.
If this were her own child, not to mention Tangtang, even Qingshan and the other two would make her feel heartbroken.
A child without a mother has no one to love him and his life is miserable.
"Alas! If Mu Sheng was in the Shuangshan Brigade, he wouldn't be bullied like this."
There are some gossipers in their team, but most of them are good people. At least no one dares to bully the elderly and children openly.
