Doesn't the fat guy know him? He's utterly pathetic!
He had never left home or traveled in his entire life; Qin Huairu held onto his meager savings tightly, and this grown man had no money in his pocket.
Goodness, my first visit to the Great Wall was in 1992, back in the 1990s!
Even so, he went with Lou Xiao'e, Tan Yali, and his eldest son.
Unlike now, we can earn our own money and spend it as we please. How wonderful is that!
The fat man said to him dismissively, "You should really thank Xu Damao."
"I should thank him? Are you out of your mind?"
"You're the one who's crazy! Let me tell you, Sha Zhu, if it weren't for Xu Damao helping you get rid of Qin Huairu back then, you would have been sucked dry by her for the rest of your life!"
The moment Qin Huairu was mentioned, Sha Zhu's expression became unnatural: "Me, am I that stupid?"
Now, even Xiao Dang sided with Fatty: "Silly Dad, what kind of life did you live before? Not only did Bang Geng eat all the lunchboxes you brought back, but you never saved any money each month. She kept a tight rein on your meager salary..."
Xiao Dang initially wanted to say "my mom" but was reluctant; saying something else would make her seem heartless; in the end, she could only use "she" instead.
This girl, Sha Zhu angrily pinched Xiao Dang's nose: "Hmph, you ate just as much!"
Xiao Dang chuckled and said, "I ate it, so I'm being filial to you now."
Sha Zhu was delighted: "That makes sense, otherwise you wouldn't be my daughter!"
Xu Xiyue was overjoyed to be able to go out and have fun.
Before Xu Damao could react, she was gone. Her short legs moved incredibly fast, and she kept yelling "Ah ah ah" as she ran.
Xu Damao chased after her with a headache and grabbed her arm: "Little Miss, calm down for a bit, I'm exhausted."
Xu Xiyue's small body twisted like a pretzel, constantly making "hmm~" sounds...
In the end, it was Yu Li who saw this and asked Chen Mengqi to come over and play with Cao Hao, which finally saved Xu Damao.
Xu Damao was sweating profusely from his precious daughter's antics. Between breaths, he complained to the fat man, "If I'd known raising a child would be this hard, I would have..."
What is it? He just started talking, and then he couldn't continue.
Xu Damao is a total doting father to his daughter. His daughter rides on him, crawls on the ground, and plays horse-riding and war games... Chen Mengqi, envious, went home and kept clamoring to ride the fat man.
Yu Li wore a striking red hat today, making her look like a future tour guide.
Exhausted, he shouted to everyone, "Come and gather here! Keep an eye on the children, don't let them run around, and don't let them act on their own. Always keep an eye on this hat on my head!"
More tiring than taking the kids on a spring outing...
The fat guy even brought something special today.
It's the late 1970s now, and young people are no longer satisfied with the "Four Ones Project" for marriage; instead, they are starting to pursue the "Three Turns and One Sound" (a set of four essential items for a house, a watch, a radio, and a speaker).
Benlei Hu is working hard to achieve these "three turns and one sound" goals. His brother-in-law, however, insists on having a bicycle, a sewing machine, a watch, and a television!
Good, bad, good...
Many people only know "three turns and one sound", but they don't know that there is a variation called "three turns, one sound and one click".
The fat man was wearing the "click" from the "three turns, one sound, one click" series around his neck today.
So what exactly is this "click"? A camera.
pENtAx, Pentax; this thing is said to be priced at $600 this year!
The lens in the fat man's hand is the professional flagship Lx, which was released in 1980. The Pentax Lx used the PK mount and ushered in the era of a full range of lenses with complete focal lengths.
Compared to its competitors of the same era, the Pentax Lx's biggest advantage is that the viewfinder magnification reaches 0.9x, and the viewfinder lens also uses multi-layer coating.
This camera truly deserves its title as the king of the mF era, embodying the "small is beautiful" strategy.
In another time and space, the fat man could only drool over pictures online; unexpectedly, after traveling to this era, he was able to personally handle and examine them closely.
Especially considering the time he "got started" was two years earlier than other people's debuts.
Who understands this feeling, family?
So where did this thing come from?
Stardew Valley! It's perfect for this era, given that Emily's sister Hayley discarded it.
To the outside world, he said he borrowed it from the Great Spiritual Guide. Anyway, he and Secretary Chen were sworn brothers, and he was used to using Secretary Chen as a shield.
By the way, she's no longer a secretary; she's gone to work in a ministry for a temporary assignment, and she's married and living a wonderful life!
What are some things to do at the Summer Palace? Yu Li was also curious about this.
The fat man handed the entire team over to her and then left her to her own devices, claiming it was to train her team management skills in advance; do you listen to human speech?
Yu Li suffered a lot on this journey.
From the moment I stepped out of the courtyard house, trouble began to ensue.
These people, young and old, all have their own ideas, and none of them are easy to deal with!
After finally managing to get everyone to the bus stop, we had to do a roll call right before boarding and two people were missing...
Fatty wanted to train Yu Li, but he couldn't just wash his hands of the matter, so he made her a "travel itinerary".
This isn't something from a previous era; it existed as early as 1916. At that time, a total of four maps were printed, namely "Complete Map of the Imperial City," "Overview of the Inner City," "Overview of the Outer City" (the character for "city" in "outer city" was printed incorrectly), and the last one, "Complete Map of the Capital."
When you enter the Summer Palace, the first thing you should see is the Nine-Dragon Wall.
Let alone now, even 60 years from now, many people will not know where the Nine Dragon Wall is.
The fat man has a cousin who, misled by period dramas, always thought the Nine-Dragon Wall was in the Forbidden City.
The same is true now. Looking at the nine lifelike dragons painted on the wall, Xiao Dang couldn't help but say, "So this is the Nine Dragon Wall! It's magnificent!"
"..."
Fatty saw himself as an observer today, and as he walked through the scene, the feeling of the past and future colliding with each other made him feel somewhat dazed.
The Summer Palace today is very different from what it will be in the future; it is much older overall, and many attractions have not yet been restored.
For example, the shopping street was later Suzhou Street; it was originally a water street for the emperor and his concubines to stroll around. It was built during the Qianlong period in the style of a water town in Jiangnan, but it was destroyed by the Eight-Nation Alliance and was not rebuilt on the original site until 1990.
Now only ruins remain, with no trace of the future splendor of streets along the water and markets along the banks, attracting a constant stream of tourists.
The main buildings are still there, and there are so many places worth taking pictures that the fat guy only dared to take pictures at the famous scenic spots, otherwise he might not have enough film.
He seriously underestimated people's enthusiasm for taking photos at that time.
Who says older generations don't like taking photos? It's just that they didn't have the means, and the high cost made them suppress their desire to do so.
