Chapter 95: Half a Catty
The staff member asked, "Okay, one inch is 40 cents, two inches is 80 cents, you choose."
Gu Yu said arrogantly, "Okay, let's take 20 photos first, all 2 inches."
The staff was a little surprised. It was the first time they met such a generous guest, so they immediately agreed.
The people queuing behind were dissatisfied. There were 20 tickets and they would have to wait for a long time, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Although this man was handsome, he also had a strong aura about him, and just now he glanced at the female comrade next to him for a second longer and was given a warning glance.
If you stand behind this old man, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.
Xiuzhu felt that Gu Yu spent money lavishly and did not know how to live. Who would spend 16 yuan to take a photo?
I gave him a lecture, "It's not you who paid the money. If you don't manage the household, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. Could it be that you secretly hid a small treasury behind my back?"
Gu Yu saw her with her hands on her waist, her eyes wide open and bright, looking like a homely young wife.
Afraid of laughing out loud, he coughed a few times to cover up his sexual desire, and accepted criticism with an open mind, "You're right, I don't know how to live. I'll listen to you, okay?"
"Hmph, that's more like it. Then let's take 8 photos, 4 group photos, and 2 individual photos for each person, all in 2-inch sizes."
"This is only 6.4 yuan, which saves nearly 10 yuan." Xiuzhu calculated carefully with great pride.
The guy at the back of the line was just about to praise the lesbian next to him for how she knew how to live her life, but when he heard what she said next, he was speechless.
6.4 is expensive, okay?
He was happy for nothing, as he thought it would be his turn soon!
Alas, it is true that birds of a feather flock together! ! !
This couple are of the same kind, neither of them knows how to live.
Finally, after taking the photos as Xiuzhu requested, I was told to come and pick up the films two days later.
Although Gu Yu felt a little regretful that he couldn't get it immediately, he was still happy in his heart. He walked out of the photo studio with Xiuzhu, smiling.

Gu Yu didn't rush to take her to the tourist attractions directly. Instead, he went to the department store and borrowed money from Xiuzhu to buy a Seagull camera, spending a huge sum of 160 yuan.
A senior official at level 13 only earned this much a month. At that time, it was very generous to have a camera.
Xiuzhu didn't say anything about living frugally this time. There are no entertainment activities now, so having a camera can help to relieve boredom.
Besides, if you don’t spend the money you can’t keep it for having children, so you might as well enjoy it.
She silently calculated the cost in her mind, then looked at Gu Yu and boasted, "If you like it, buy it. I calculated that one roll of film costs 1.8 yuan, and the developing fee is 0.3 yuan. One roll can produce 12 photos, and each print costs 0.6 cents. On average, the cost of one photo is just over 0.2 yuan, which is much cheaper than in the photo studio."
Gu Yu didn't expect that his young wife was quite good at arithmetic.
However, there was a key cost issue that she overlooked.
If you include the cost of the camera, each photo costs more than two cents.
But there is no need to tell her that I bought it to entertain her, and it would be better if it could make her happy.

Following the map, Gu Yu took her on a tram to a complex of historical buildings with a strong Republican style.
Xiuzhu stood in front of a Western-style mansion built in the Republic of China period and couldn't help but look at it. The architectural style was really beautiful.
"This is a Western-style building owned by a famous figure during the Republic of China period. However, he is no longer with us, so it has been in disrepair and no one takes care of it," Gu Yu explained to his wife the origins of these buildings.
Xiuzhu felt a little regretful after hearing this. Such a nice western-style building was actually left vacant, what a waste of resources.
Well, if no one is living there, she can live there. She is very willing to live in the western-style building.
"Please take some photos for me." Since she couldn't move in, taking a photo as a souvenir might just help soothe her fragile heart.
Gu Yu saw her tilting her head and smiling at the camera, then tilting her head back and closing her eyes, and even putting her right hand on her cheek to make the letter C.
He has learned a lot. His daughter Xiuzhu is even better at taking photos than the girls in magazines.
She always does these new things from time to time, which is so cute and charming.
"Filmed"
Xiuzhu finally achieved the freedom to take photos. She thought that she would not be idle at home in the future. She could take various landscape photos and save them for later.
She narrowed her eyes with a smile, and seeing that there was no one around, she couldn't help but jump up, hugged Gu Yu's neck with both hands, and said coquettishly: "It's great to have a camera. We will take it with us wherever we go and take pictures wherever we go."
Gu Yu looked at her lovingly and responded with a smile.

Xiuzhu finally went to the state-owned restaurant. Because the expenses were relatively high today, she insisted on being frugal and only ordered one dish.
Gu Yu felt a little sorry for her being so frugal, so he pretended to be pitiful and coaxed her.
Finally, the two ordered two dishes and a soup.
Xiuzhu was eating the sweet and sour pork ribs that Gu Yufei insisted on ordering. They were so delicious. It seemed that she still had to spend some money.
However, being in charge of the finances at home also has its disadvantages, and she really couldn't bear to spend a penny.
After the two of them had dinner at the state-owned restaurant, they returned to the guesthouse. Xiuzhu asked excitedly about the arrangements for the next few days, "Where are we going to go tomorrow? I want to change my clothes and take some beautiful photos."
"You should also change your clothes and take photos with me. No one passed by that area today, so we couldn't take a photo together."
Xiuzhu kept on talking, and when she saw that the person next to her didn't respond for a long time, she frowned in dissatisfaction and turned her head to look at him, "Hey, you didn't even listen to me?"
Gu Yu stared at the back of the woman who had just gone upstairs, his eyes deep and deep in thought. He was a little unsure whether she was the person he knew.
He also felt that he must have seen it wrong. He hadn't seen her for so many years and he couldn't remember what she looked like. Maybe they just looked similar. After all, that person shouldn't be here.
Hearing his wife's complaints, he quickly responded, "I heard you. Okay, I'll do as you say."
"Hmph," Xiuzhu felt that he was being perfunctory and clearly wasn't listening to her seriously. She turned around and ran upstairs, not wanting to pay any more attention to him.
Gu Yu sighed and followed her, thinking about how to apologize later. After all, he was distracted...
