The photos from that day were developed. The colored wedding photos in suits were put into frames and placed next to the military uniform photo of the couple ten years ago.
Qin Rou looked at the black and white photo tenderly. The man was in a white military uniform, and his handsome face still had a bit of immature youthfulness. The woman next to him was in a green military uniform, and two beautiful black braids fell on her chest.
"It's great!" She gently stroked the man's face in the photo, and the past time appeared in front of her one by one.
Over the years, the photo albums in their home have almost filled up a closet, and now there is one more.
Qin Rou was embarrassed to put the wedding photos in the living room downstairs, so they were all placed in the room on the second floor, and the children's rooms were filled with family photos of the couple wearing wedding dresses and suits with their children.
"Can we see the photos you two took that day?"
"We want to see the photos."
...
Although Qin Rou put the wedding photos in the room, after hearing that the photos were developed, many family members in the family compound came to inquire, and they all wanted to see the wedding photos taken by Qin Rou and his wife.
The scene of Qin Rou wearing a wedding dress that day was too sensational, and many people went to see the excitement, and helped to carry things, and congratulated the two on their tenth wedding anniversary.
This Xiao Qin is indeed a college student. Who would hold a tenth wedding anniversary?
"You two are really good at putting on a show."
"Didn't the Army Chief of Staff and his wife hold a wedding?"
"Life is better now, what's wrong with putting on a show?"
"Sister-in-law Qin, come on, take a look at the photos you took!"
...
Qin Rou took out the large and small photo frames and showed them to the family members who came to watch. Li Qinghua praised repeatedly: "Xiao Qin, you don't seem to have changed much in the past ten years. You are still so beautiful. No, you are more beautiful than before!"
A young family member next to her, Guo Qingmei, said: "You put on makeup."
"I heard that Sister-in-law Qin used to be in the art troupe. She must be good at makeup. People like us can only make ourselves look like monkeys' butts."
"So beautiful, and the pearls!"
Huang Xinying looked at the couple in the photo, and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes. Perhaps because she had already seen them for ten years, this trace of envy was not too strong.
Teacher Huang lifted her hair and boasted: "Isn't our Lao Zhang good at taking pictures?"
"Sister Huang, your Lao Zhang is really good at taking pictures!"
"He takes really good pictures of people. Can he also take family photos for my family next time?"
"It depends on whether he has time."
...
"Sister Qin, can you lend me your wedding dress for once? I also want to take pictures with my one." Guo Qingmei couldn't help but speak.
She was really envious of other people's wedding photos. The wedding dress photos on the beach with blue sky and white clouds were too beautiful. She thought that her figure was similar to Qin Rou's, and maybe... that wedding dress could also be worn on her.
Borrowing clothes is not a big deal. In the past, borrowing clothes was just a common thing.
"We have similar body shapes. I won't ruin it. Sister-in-law Qin, just lend it to me."
When Qin Rou heard that someone asked to borrow her wedding dress, she refused without thinking: "No, this dress is not for loan."
This wedding dress has extraordinary significance. Qin Rou doesn't want to let others wear it, nor does she want to get angry because of lending it to others out of kindness.
I borrowed it once, but will I borrow it the second time? In the end, a good piece of clothing became tattered, and I was still angry.
Qin Rou didn't want her tenth anniversary to end up unhappy.
"It's just a loan of a piece of clothing. It's such a small matter, Sister Qin, please help me."
"My family and I got married in a hurry. We didn't even have a wedding ceremony. We just came to this island. Now I want to make up for it..."
"Sister Qin, don't be so cruel. Your photo has been taken. Please lend me the clothing once. I promise to take good care of it."
Qin Rou smiled and shook her head: "No matter how much you say, I won't lend it. The clothing was given to me by my man. It means a lot to me. I don't want it to be worn by other women. I hope you can understand."
Guo Qingmei said: "It's just one time. Sister Qin, please be generous."
"Don't force me." Li Qinghua said: "Such a good piece of clothing, what if you ruin it? In the end, it makes people unhappy. People only get this done once in ten years. How many decades can a person have in their life?"
"Whoever is willing to lend it, I won't lend it to you. "
Guo Qingmei immediately said, "If you don't want to lend it, then don't lend it. When my pearl farm makes money, I will go abroad to buy a wedding dress and wear pearls."
"Guo Qingmei, your family also opened a pearl farm? Is it the same as Mrs. Qin's?"
"Yes, it's called Guirou Pearl Farm. It was opened by my cousin. He used to be a researcher at the experimental station. He was the one who raised the Pearl King."
"My cousin Guisheng knows the technology. Our family has given money to support him to open a factory. He will definitely make a lot of money."
"Is your pearl farm still hiring?"
...
Guo Qingmei and a few others left Lu's house. Watching them leave, Huang Xinying couldn't help but say, "She's such a good learner."
Li Qinghua said, "Teacher Huang, you're right!"
Huang Xinying: "..."
As a teacher, is learning to be a good learner a teacher's daily routine?
"Xiao Qin, there are so many people who want to open pearl farms like you."
"Yes, there's not only the Guirou Farm, but also the Meirou Piaorou, and poof - there's also the Xiarou Farm."
Pearl farms are everywhere in Linshui. Qin Rou certainly knows that many people have opened pearl farms like her, but this is also a very common thing. As long as there is a way to make money, everyone will rush in.
In addition to Guo Qingmei, there may be other family members who have also mixed in the pearl farm.
The Guirou Pearl Farm mentioned by Guo Qingmei just now seems to be the pearl farm opened by the researcher named Zhang Guisheng who resigned from the previous experimental station. Qin Rou is also familiar with this Zhang Guisheng.
He didn't really like pearl farming. He said he was coming to their factory to give instructions, but he only fished for three days and dried the nets for two days. He didn't think highly of Qin Rou's pearl farming. Later, when he saw that the pearls made money, he was immediately tempted and asked his family to raise money to open a pearl factory on the island.
Qin Rou had no interest in other people's business.
"So many pearl factories? How many pearls will be produced in a year? Maybe we can all wear pearls on the island in the future."
Qin Rou smiled and said, "Who knows, it is said that things are valuable because they are rare. When the production volume is high, maybe the price will really come down."
A few decades later, their country became a pearl power. The price of ordinary pearls in the country is indeed not expensive. Some cheap pearl necklaces in the country can be regarded as luxury goods in countries where pearls are scarce.
"When they are cheaper, let's buy some pearls to wear."
After returning from Lu's house, Huang Xinying thought of the photos she had seen at Lu's house, and the wedding photos of the handsome man and beautiful woman, and the envy in her heart rose again.
Those were the photos taken by her own Lao Zhang. She had seen Lao Zhang wearing so many military uniforms, and she had never seen him wearing a formal suit.
If he doesn't wear something now, he might have no hair on the back of his head in the future.
Huang Xinying: "..."
She couldn't buy a wedding dress, but it would be nice to buy Lao Zhang a suit. Then she could ask Xiao Qin next door to help take pictures. Their tenth wedding anniversary... It has been a long time.
Zhang Chengbei sighed in his heart. He didn't even want to see his masterpiece. His heart was bleeding. He had learned photography techniques for so long. Could it be that he was taking wedding photos for the couple next door?
He bit his lip. He couldn't sleep these days because of envy.
The couple next door came back and aroused his passion for learning.
"Wife, do you want to take those photos?" Zhang Chengbei thought about it and decided to ask his wife's opinion.
"Wedding photos? How old are we? Why are we still taking photos of this?"
Zhang Chengbei was very resentful: "If I don't take photos, my hair will be gone."
He sighed: "Lao Lu next door is still handsome, a man of thirty is a flower, and Lao Zhang next to him is gradually fading. If we don't grasp this youth, time will never come again."
"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is almost dusk."
Huang Xinying: "...Have you secretly read many of my romance novels?"
In the past few years, the ban on novels has been lifted, and all kinds of novels have flooded the market. Teacher Huang has regained her feelings as a girl and bought countless romance novels to fill her bookshelf.
Books are cheap now, and she even thought about getting a room specifically for storing books.
The children at home gradually grew up, Sanyou was almost four years old, and Huang Xinying liked to sit under the thatched umbrella in her yard, make a pot of tea, and quietly read novels.
Many times, she would recall Qin Rou who was reading novels under the thatched umbrella next door ten years ago.
Teacher Huang thought to herself: I am not a copycat, I have been reading novels under the tree for a long time, and now I just have an extra cup of tea. I
am definitely not trying to be like the little tea spirit.
"So what if I saw it? Don't you allow me to have more romantic feelings?"
"Forget it, we are old, there is no need to take pictures, take pictures for your son and daughter-in-law in the future."
Zhang Chengbei: "...Why can't I take pictures?"
Zhang Chengbei was upset, wondering why he didn't think of taking pictures in the first place, what's the point of him learning such a powerful technique? The result is that he takes pictures for others and he doesn't get any benefits.
It's a waste!!!
Zhang Chengbei secretly planned whether to ask Lu Yan how to buy a wedding dress and suit, and try to leave a few handsome photos before he has no hair on his head.
"Time flies, you have been married for ten years." Qin Rou's sister Qin Mian sighed as she looked at the wedding photos of her sister and brother-in-law.
She looked at the gorgeous wedding dress her sister was wearing in the photo and immediately liked it.
"Sister, do you want to take photos with your brother-in-law too?" Qin Rou felt that it would be a waste not to take wedding photos on the bay beach on this island.
Qin Mian shook her head: "How old am I..."
"How old can I be? Can't I still wear it when I'm older?"
"Sister, do you like this wedding dress?" If this dress was for someone else, Qin Rou would be reluctant to give it away, but for her own sister, there would be no problem.
Qin Mian hesitated and said, "I just... I want to make one myself."
