Chapter 105 Taking Photos
The next morning, Li Meng rode her bike to the town. She had thought of this idea the night before. It was a good idea. There was a photo studio in the town, but the photos were all black and white and very small in size. This was a good way to make money. Although she was not short of money now, it was still meaningful to help people around her make some money.
Li Meng took the opportunity to come to the town, otherwise it would be difficult to explain how she got the camera. She rode her bike to the supply and marketing cooperative, thinking of buying some egg cakes to take back. The egg cakes of this era were very authentic, and she liked them very much. She bought two packs, put them in a basket, and rode back.
After passing a deserted grove, Li Meng parked the car and quickly went in to take out two Polaroid cameras with his mind. He also took out a lot of clothes for dressing up, wrapped them in a bed sheet, and carried them on his back, and continued to ride back to the village.
When we passed by an ox cart full of people, we saw the old lady from last time also sitting on it.
"Li Zhiqing, Li Zhiqing, please stop for a moment. What do you think about what I said last time?"
"Look, my eldest son is in the car too. Why don't you come and take a look?" the old woman continued to shout.
Li Meng didn't even glance at the old woman and rode away on his bike.
"Mom, who is this?" The old woman's son looked at the slim girl riding a bicycle and immediately felt that this was the one worthy of him.
"She is an educated youth from the city, living in Huanglong Village. I heard she is very rich and has bought a big house in the village. She is also a teacher and is pretty. Not bad, isn't she? I fell in love with her last time."
"If you like him, we will come to your house and take a look tomorrow. My son is so outstanding that only girls from the city can be worthy of him." After saying this, the old woman laughed at her son, as if they would live a good life in the next second.
The people in the car looked at the mother and son with contempt when they saw the toad wanting to eat the swan flesh.
At this time, Li Meng also arrived in the village. She had no idea that someone had been eyeing her and was preparing to do something bad to force her to submit.
Li Laidi and Wu Ruirui had started promoting the photo shoot when Li Meng went to the town. At this time, a bunch of old ladies and aunties were waiting under the tree at the entrance of the village to see how the color photos were taken. They had not seen them yet.
"Mengmeng, Mengmeng," Li Laidi waved and shouted to Li Meng who had just entered the village entrance, and Wu Ruirui ran over directly.
"Li Zhiqing, when will you take photos? We want to see them," asked an aunt in the village.
"We'll take photos under this tree in the afternoon. If you want to take photos, put on your nicest clothes and come over. I'll take photos for free for the first 10 people. Remember to come early," Li Meng said with a smile.
"That's great. I'll go home and cook for the men now. Come early and line up." After saying that, the aunt who asked the question before ran away like the wind.
Seeing this, others also ran back home, thinking of coming early to queue up after finishing their meals.
After the three of them returned home, Li Meng took out the Polaroid camera and explained that it was a foreign product and that they could get the photos immediately after taking them. She asked them to keep it a secret and not tell anyone. The two swore not to tell anyone and Li Meng was amused by their actions.
"Come on, both of you stand at the door, one on each side, with your heads held high. I'll try the machine first," Li Meng said mischievously. She knew that these two people were getting impatient.
The two of them were so happy that they were fixing their hair and clothes in a hurry, which made Li Meng laugh to death.
"Come, let me put some lipstick on you two so that you can look good in the photos." Li Meng took out the lipstick and helped them apply it.
"Come on, stand still and look at me. I'll press 123 when I say it." Li Meng stood at the door with a Polaroid camera and shouted 1 2 3 to the two people who had already held their heads high and chests puffed out. Click, and a photo came out. He waved the photo back and forth in the air a few times, and the appearance of the two people slowly appeared.
"Okay, come and take a look." Li Meng waved at the two people and handed the photo to Li Laidi.
"Oh my God, this is really amazing," Li Laidi exclaimed, his hands shaking as he held the photo.
"Haha, I really have gained weight. You can see it in the photos. I'll change into clothes and put on some makeup this afternoon and then take a few good photos," Wu Ruirui said excitedly.
"Don't worry, take as many pictures as you want and send them home to your families. They will know that you are doing well and won't worry anymore."
"Come, the three of us are taking a selfie, come here," Li Meng called them, and the three of them stood together. Li Meng raised the Polaroid camera, 1 2 3, smiled, click, another one.
After the photo was displayed, the three of them were very happy to see themselves appear in the photo and smile so happily.
"Hurry, hurry, let's cook first. After we finish eating, we can put on makeup and change clothes to go take pictures," Wu Ruirui said anxiously.
The three of them started busying themselves making lunch. When Zhou Hui came back and saw the photos, he yelled that they were so mean and didn't even call him back to join them in taking photos. Only after Wu Ruirui gave him a big scolding did he calm down.
Li Meng promised to take a few photos for him in the afternoon. Zhou Hui was satisfied then and urged her to eat quickly so that they could go take photos earlier.
After the four people finished their meal, they took the things they needed and went down the big tree at the entrance of the village.
My goodness! What’s going on with all these black heads? Is everyone in the village here?
"Li Zhiqing, Li Zhiqing, you're here," the people in the queue greeted the four people who came over.
"Everyone, don't be anxious. Time is limited today. If you need to take photos, you can go to Zhou Zhiqing to queue up and register. The first ten people today, please come over and we'll start taking photos of you. Do you want to take photos of yourself? Or do you want to take photos with your family? It's all up to you!"
When everyone heard what Li Meng said, the crowd rushed towards Zhou Hui, and Zhou Hui was immediately surrounded by the aunts.
"Hey, stop making noise. Line up and register one by one. Don't worry, I will take beautiful pictures of you all. Whoever cuts in line or doesn't obey my instructions will not be photographed. Do you hear me? Be quiet." Fortunately, Li Meng came prepared and brought a small loudspeaker. After shouting like this, the villagers quieted down.
"Li Zhiqing, I'm the first one. Can I take a photo with my old man?" an aunt said excitedly.
"Okay, just go and call uncle over, I'll take the picture of the second person in line first." Li Meng agreed, and the aunt hurriedly ran home to call people.
The second one was a village girl. Li Meng asked Wu Ruirui to put some lipstick on her, and then she put on a bright red scarf. She held a bunch of yellow artificial flowers in her hand, and stood under a big tree, smiling.
"Sister, look at me, and press the button when I count to 1, 2, 3. Remember to smile." Li Meng pointed the camera at the girl standing under the tree, 1, 2, 3, click!
