mom is single

Chapter 4 Returning from the North as a child, a new career



After March, the weather has basically picked up, and today is a rare good weather.Seeing Tangbao and grandparents having a good time, Lin Jiajia was going to drive to the orchard.Dad said that the cherry blossoms, peach blossoms, and pear blossoms were almost budding two days ago, and asked her to see if she wanted to take some photos with the whole family.

Speaking of taking pictures, Lin Jiajia felt guilty again. If her mother hadn't found out that her daughter's work had been published in a photography magazine when her mother was helping her organize the bookcase, it would be difficult for Lin Jiajia to have the consciousness to take pictures for her family.

Although those works were promoted by the company to the magazine, it was not very clear to them. Fortunately, my photography skills can indeed pass the test, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.She understood that in the eyes of her parents, handicrafts had to be practiced from time to time, so it was wrong not to give the family some benefits, so Lin Jiajia was arranged.

……

When she arrived in the garden, Lin Jiajia was pleasantly surprised to find that some of the pear trees had already bloomed. In addition, the weather was beautiful today, and it was a good photo to take casually.Lin Jiajia thought about the flowering period that her father had told her about, calculated the time, and planned to shoot a set of ancient costumes for grandparents, parents, and sugar buns. She didn't want to shoot too many fairies, and focused on being authentic and childlike.I did what I said, found a stronger peach tree to lean against, and started picking up clothes on the Internet.

Before I could choose a set, I heard someone calling Lin Jiajia outside the garden. I was afraid that I might hear it wrong and didn't make a sound. Who knew that I called twice in succession, ho, it was really calling me.

"Come on!"

He responded loudly, and hurried to the gate of the garden. Before he reached the gate, he saw a person standing by the fence.At first glance, this person is quite familiar, but at the second glance, it is still familiar, but I just can't remember who this handsome pot is.

"Lin Jiajia, you can't remember who I am, can you?"

Seeing Lin Jiajia's confused face, the visitor kindly greeted her, but this made Lin Jiajia even more embarrassed.

"Uh, that... I'm sorry, I haven't been at home for a long time... How about introducing yourself..." Lin Jiajia said the last sentence with difficulty. It's a hindrance.

"Hello, Lin Jiajia, I've been your classmate in elementary school for five consecutive years, and unfortunately I live in the third house on the left in the row in front of your house." Seriously reminded Lin Jiajia who he is.

"I'll go! You are a big bun, Li Dabao! Hahahaha..."

"Hey, hey, it's almost done, it's not because you are a woman, I beat you up!"

"But pull it down, which time you were beaten when you were a child was not the place I found for you!"

"Okay, I can't remember when I should have a good memory, I shouldn't remember... Also, buddy, with this physique, I can put you down with one finger!"

As soon as I started talking, the memories came back. Although more than ten years have passed, they are still as kind as when I was a child.

Lin Jiajia stood a step away and looked at his old friend carefully. I really didn't blame myself for not recognizing him just now. Li Dabao's body now is very different from that of Bean Sprouts when he was a child, and he is too strong.

"Okay, I know that brother Dabao is not what he used to be, so I will be under your protection from now on! Uh, did you come all the way here for something?"

"You have nothing to do here, right? Go back, I have something to ask you, talk to you as you go." Li Dabao took the lead and walked towards the road as he spoke.

As soon as she heard that there was something to do, Lin Jiajia had to put aside the matter of choosing clothes for the time being, and drove Li Dabao home.After a brief chat on the way, I found out that Li Dabao had just returned from BJ, had worked hard for several years and had some savings in his hands. Considering that his parents were getting older, he planned to return to his hometown to develop.

Coincidentally, Li Dabao has been working in advertising operations at BJ, and this time he came back to do video self-media on his own.But it is hard to make a forest alone, so I wanted to find a helper, and remembered that my parents mentioned that Lin Jiajia was back when chatting with him, so I ran over to recruit someone to join the group.

When the two returned to the small courtyard of Lin's family, Tangbao saw her mother coming back immediately, and waved her little arms to say hello.Just as Lin Jiajia wanted to hug her, she was hugged by Li Dabao first.

"Oh, this girl is a miniature version of Lin Jiajia!" After speaking, she turned her head to look at Lin Jiajia, and said with a smile, "It's an upgraded version!"

Lin Jiajia felt that this kid was definitely here for revenge. He was abused by her a few times when he was a child. As for stabbing him twice when he got the chance?Looking at Tangbao, he didn't admit that he was born, so he let him hold him, pointed at Li Dabao and asked Tangbao to call him uncle, but Tangbao just played with the buttons on Li Dabao's coat and didn't cooperate.

Lin Jiajia shrugged her shoulders, expressing her helplessness, but she didn't notice a hint of joy flashed in Li Dabao's eyes.

Sitting down at the stone table in the yard, Lin Jiajia took a closer look at the business plan that Li Dabao gave her in the car. Although the plan was rough, Lin Jiajia felt that it was very feasible.

"Li Dabao, your idea is really good. Although I have basically been in a state of waste this year, I dare not watch the news less. I don't know what it is these days. There are a few video social software that are quite popular, but It seems that the content is mostly a hodgepodge, with no continuity. These videos of yours should be highly recognized, and you can completely build your own brand.”

"So I need you to join!"

"Really!?"

Knowing that Li Dabao was not joking, Lin Jiajia also began to think about it seriously. Tangbao is a little over one year old now, and she really needs to think about doing something serious.Although I made some income by contributing articles to online media before, staying at home is not a long-term solution.

"If I'm only responsible for video shooting and preliminary preparations, I agree to join, but the work location can't be out of this city." After thinking twice, Lin Jiajia nodded.

Li Dabao was not surprised by this result. He came prepared but did not intend to return empty-handed. The most important thing was that he did not think that Lin Jiajia, who always liked to play the big sister in his memory, was not aggressive. Noisy, but Lin Jiajia, who has the same professional background as her, can definitely see the prospect.

"Okay, I will do a background check on the topics selected in the first two issues, and you can help me refer to them when it is finalized."

When Lin Jiajia agreed to join the group, Li Dabao was not in a hurry to go home, so he played games with Tangbao in the yard.Because of his friendship with the children, Lin Jiajia was not polite to him. She took some washed and cut apples for the elder and the younger, and sat down to look at the clothes on the Internet. The birthdays of grandparents are around May Day, so I have to hurry up. Done.

Grandpa and grandma were taken to the restaurant by the second uncle in the morning and have not returned yet. Lin's mother is busy in the small vegetable garden. Lin's father is on the second floor assembling the wooden horse that the sugar bag just bought...Everyone has something to do.The sun shines into the small courtyard through the big jujube tree in the southeast corner, accompanied by the laughter of the sugar buns from time to time, the small courtyard of the Lin family is very warm for a while.

Li Dabao secretly glanced at Lin Jiajia who was hit by a ray of light on the side of his face, feeling his heart soften.Tang Bao, who was playing happily, saw the person who was playing with her suddenly quiet down, and slapped her. The little meaty hand, neither crying nor laughing, resigned to fate and caught the little girl to wash it up.

Lin Jiajia, who had finally chosen her clothes, looked up and realized that everyone was gone. Hearing the sound of water rushing from the bathroom, she hurried over.Seeing the scene in front of her clearly, Lin Jiajia couldn't help but still laughed, the hair on the forehead of the sugar bag was sticking wet to her face, one small hand was holding the collar of classmate Dabao's clothes, and the other was raised high Holding classmate Dabao's hair tightly, Li Dabao may be afraid that the sugar bag will fall, so he carefully holds the body of the sugar bag with his left arm, and holds a dripping towel in his right hand, and his face is also dirty.After Lin Jiajia laughed, she quickly took the sugar bag and rescued Li Dabao.

"Lin Jiajia, your sugar bag is much more difficult to deal with than you, if you come a little later, I might die!"

Ma Liuer cleaned up her daughter and threw it over with a dry towel. Lin Jiajia looked at him sympathetically, "Brother Dabao, you are really not wronged. You even wiped your hair with that sweet little face of the sugar bag." That kind of thick towel to wipe, and I don’t know how to wring it dry. If the sugar bag doesn’t work hard with you, it’s already merciful. You know, my mother’s parents just buy the cotton soft towel for the sugar bag to make your face more comfortable. This little ancestor has long been pampered!"

Li Dabao looked at the towel that was still dripping on the shelf, and for the first time felt a strong sense of frustration, raising a baby is so difficult!
……

Before lunch, Lin Jiajia drove Li Dabao home.

"I haven't returned home for three or two years, and I only came back for two days. What are you running around for? When can't I make a living?"

"When you were a child, I didn't eat less food from my family, and it wasn't a fresh taste. Next time, my sister will cook two dishes for you! Be obedient and go home honestly, otherwise my aunt will talk about me!"

After being forced out of the house by Lin Jiajia, Li Dabao could only go home in despair to eat his mother's 30-year-old love meal.

It's really difficult for him to take care of the baby for half a day and not care about food!
……

Neither of them is of a dawdling nature, and the first two topics were chosen quickly. The first one was to shoot the "Grand Fair" held three times a month in the town.

There is a "big fair" every ninth every month in the small town, with everything from needles and brains to eating, drinking and having fun. Although it can't compare with the high-end atmosphere in the city, it has a special taste.Especially some snacks, which are really tastes that cannot be bought elsewhere, as well as various unique skills of country craftsmen, small baskets made of rattan, various miscellaneous baskets of different sizes, and the ones that Lin Jiajia played with when she was a child All kinds of small animals woven with glue thread make people feel vivid.Lin Jiajia bought an exquisite small backpack on "Daji". Although it was not painted, it was polished very smooth. When she saw it, she decided to buy one for the sugar bag to carry on her back.

The second is to shoot the door of the house at dinner time.This topic was suggested by Lin Jiajia. She felt that it was a rare time for a family to reunite after get off work and school.Lin Jiajia has been struggling with how to show the smell of rice wafting from every kitchen in the video. After all, smell is not something that can be seen.The most terrible thing is that most of the rural areas now have integrated cabinets, and range hoods are standard equipment, and the plan to express the aroma of rice by emitting smoke from the chimney has also been aborted.

"Jiajia, did we have any fun things when we came home from school?"

"Fun?" Lin Jiajia was silent in comparison. At that time, apart from doing homework and going out after dinner to play with friends, there seemed to be no other entertainment activities. Television was not popular in the 90s!
"No, it's something more fun for us now!" Seeing that Lin Jiajia was silent, Li Dabao changed his mind and reminded her.

"I understand!" Lin Jiajia, who finally had an inspiration, was extremely happy. She knew what details to capture when shooting.

Li Dabao is also happy, the partner he found is really good enough!


　Have you guessed how to express the aroma of rice?
