Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 391

"Sister-in-law, I'm back."

As soon as Xu Fengming entered the room, he cheerfully held up the camera on his body, and shouted to Chao Jinghong first, "Sister-in-law, I brought the camera back."

After Xu Fengming finished speaking, he immediately turned around when he saw Wu Xiuying and Hui Lihua were still at home, with a smile on his face and said:
"Hello, Miss Lihua, Miss Xiuying, I haven't seen you for several years, do you still remember me?"

Xu Fengming's temperament has never been introverted, but an extremely extroverted person.

As for Hui Lihua, they have known each other for a long time. After all, throughout the year, they can always see each other come to the house several times.

As for Wu Xiuying, as Xu Fengming said, she really hasn't seen her for several years.

Wu Xiuying looked at Xu Fengming, who had long since turned from swarthy to fair, with a beautiful face that looked haggard but radiant after experiencing setbacks and tribulations, and said with a smile:
"You are Feng Ming. Of course I remember you, sister."

Xu Fengming took off the camera from his body, sat next to the table, and took out two more rolls of film and some things from the pocket of his cotton trousers. While chatting with Wu Xiuying, he asked his nephew not to move.

It's just that Xu Hongzhi is young, extremely curious, and also naughty.

Xu Fengming said not to move, but the little guy still couldn't bear his temper. He slowly moved his little hand to the table and carefully touched the camera.

He had seen cameras with Jinghong and Xiaoya in department stores and state-run stores, and he knew that they were fun things and that they were used for taking pictures, so after tentatively touching them a few times, he quickly turned his head and secretly looked at them. Stealing glances at his own mother.

How can a child not be mischievous, and Xu Hongzhi is a boy.

Things that are not allowed to be moved by adults must be moved a few times.

But I know that my third uncle loves me very much, and is never willing to do anything to him. Seeing that his mother didn't pay attention to him, and the third uncle didn't scold him severely, he became bolder and stood beside Xu Fengming, with a pair of shiny black With small eyes, staring at the dark film and some things that he had never seen before, his little head started to work, and the more he looked at it, the more puzzled he became.

At this moment, Yan Bugui in the front yard learned that Xu Fengming had returned to the compound with his camera on his shoulders, and he couldn't wait to walk from the front yard to the back yard, ready to take a look.

But as soon as Yan Bugui entered Xu Qing's house, he saw Xu Fengming holding a camera, taking pictures of Jinghong, Hui Lihua, who often came to the courtyard, and Wu Xiuying, whom she hadn't seen for several years.

Yan Bugui took a look, heh, Feng Ming really bought a camera, he waited for Xu Fengming to click, pressed the camera, took a picture, and wanted to talk with a smile.

However, Xu Hongzhi ran to his mother and said urgently: "Uncle Third, please take a look at me too."

Xu Fengming turned around and saw the third master coming, so he laughed and said:

"Third Master, wait a moment, I will take another picture for my little nephew and my sister-in-law."

Yan Bugui nodded and said, "It's okay. You take pictures first."

After Xu Fengming finished taking photos again, Yanbu Guicai said:

"Feng Ming, can you lend me your camera?"

Holding the camera in hand, Xu Fengming turned to Yan Bugui and said:
"Third Master, it's no problem, but you can buy the film yourself."

Yan Bugui was startled suddenly.

Although cameras in these days were very expensive, film was not cheap either.

Xu Fengming is willing to borrow his camera, but not the film, so what is he doing with the camera? Could it be used as a decoration, for appearance?
The abacus in Yan Bugui's mind crackled and he said for a moment:
"Okay, I'll buy the film myself. I can take your camera to our school for a day tomorrow."

Xu Fengming nodded and said: "Third uncle, I will lend you my camera early tomorrow morning."

Yan Bugui nodded again, borrowed the camera immediately, took out his cigarette, handed one to Feng Ming, and then asked how to use the camera.

Xu Fengming's camera was bought from abroad by his partner. The labels on it are in English. Although there are not many functions, it is very simple to operate and there is nothing complicated about it.

But Yan Bugui, first of all, his English is not very good.

Secondly, I have never used it before. When taking pictures at his house, it was the same as other people in the compound. They had to go to the photo studio on the street outside to take pictures. To use an old saying, I have only seen pigs running, but I have never eaten pork. I am even more worried that after taking it to school tomorrow, it will be damaged due to improper operation.

I thought it would be better to ask clearly.

If he borrowed it for a day and Feng Ming broke it, he couldn't afford it.

Of course, it's not that he really can't afford to pay, but Yan Bugui is a person who spends his life carefully. He didn't want to pay more for the camera ticket in Yun Fengming's hand before, so how could he pay for a new one.

Just for the sake of face, I planned to borrow it for a day, and take it to school tomorrow to show off.

If it wasn't so, even if Yan Bugui was killed, he wouldn't want to borrow the camera.

What an expensive item, worth hundreds of dollars, it's hot to hold in your hands.

But who makes him look good?

If this camera was expensive in Yanbu, no one would lend it to me.

But Feng Ming is not the third master, and he is not that stingy. As soon as Yan Bugui asked for a loan, he readily agreed.

Xu Fengming knew in his heart that if he lent it to the third master, it would be safe.

The third uncle is so stingy and stingy. He has been riding a bicycle for more than ten years and now it is still treated as a treasure. He wipes it every day and lends him the camera. If he returns it tomorrow afternoon, there will definitely be no bumps.

After Yan Bugui asked Xu Fengming how to use the camera and the functions of each button four or five times carefully, he tried to fiddle with it a few times.

Then he raised his head and said hello to Jinghong and Hui Lihua, then happily returned to the front yard, took the industrial coupons from the house, and rode his bicycle to the street to buy rubber rings.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, after Xu Qing visited his master Zhang, he rode his bicycle back to the compound, and saw Hui Lihua and Wu Xiuying sitting on the kang in his house.

Xu Qing took off his scarf and took the hot tea poured by his wife Jinghong. While drinking, he said to Wu Xiuying:

"Xiuying, why are you willing to come back to the city? Did your lover bully you?"

Wu Xiuying looked at the increasingly handsome Xu Qing who hadn't seen her for many years, she grinned and said with a smile:
"Brother Xu Qing, that's not true. My wife is very kind to me. He's coming to Sijiu City to do business today. I'll come back to see you and Sister Jinghong."

Xu Qing snorted, and lowered his head to drink the tea in the mug.

Hui Lihua sat on the kang, staring at Xu Qing, as if she had never let go of her thoughts many years ago. Her eyes looking at Xu Qing were as full of deep meaning and affection as ever.

It's just that she knew that in her life, she never met Xu Qing before Jing Hong did, and she never dared to confide the hidden thoughts in her heart.

She can't ruin the relationship between Xu Qing and Jing Hong.

Xu Qing sat at the table, chatting with Wu Xiuying and Hui Lihua, while grabbing the camera brought back by his third brother and looking at it in his hand.

Xu Fengming was squatting in the courtyard, washing clothes for his sister-in-law Jinghong. Xu Hongzhi was holding the kettle and slowly pouring the hot water into the washing tub.

Xu Xiaoya and Xu Aiguo hadn't come back yet, seeing that it was getting late, Ma Jinghong asked Xu Qing to chat with her two sisters first, then got up and went to the kitchen to make dinner.

Prepare to fry a few specialty dishes to entertain the good sisters who are coming home.

But in fact, every winter, there are few vegetables at home.

Except for potatoes, cabbage, pumpkin, vermicelli, and white radish. These are not subject to seasonal restrictions, and only eggs are left.

It's not that I can't afford vegetables, but summer vegetables such as tomatoes, leeks, and eggplants. But I searched all over the city of Sijiu, and I couldn't buy them even when the weather was freezing.

Fortunately, Ma Jinghong was ingenious. In summer, she boiled some tomato sauce with Xiaoya at home, put it in canned bottles, stored it, and specially saved it for winter.

Ma Jinghong stood in the kitchen and saw that there was still half a catty of pork in the cupboard. After thinking about it, she decided to make fried noodles.

As for stir-frying a few dishes, it is naturally indispensable.

Someone came to the house, and she was still a good sister, so how can there be only fried noodles.

Just as Ma Jinghong was cutting the meat, Xu Xiaoya and Xu Aiguo met at the entrance of the alley and went back to the compound together.

Xu Xiaoya played with Liu Jianjun outside for a day. Before breaking up, she skated on the ice in Beihai Park for more than an hour. Her face was flushed from the cold, and she complained to Xu Aiguo:

"Second brother, it's too cold today."

As Xu Xiaoya said, she covered her face with her hands in woolen gloves.

Xu Aiguo was actually the same. He watched a movie with his partner in the morning and visited a department store. In the afternoon, he took the bus to Wangfujing and played for a long time. He heard his sister say:

"It's quite cold, and there are people everywhere today. It's noisy and noisy. The children are on holiday. My ears are still buzzing."

Xu Xiaoya crouched, hiding next to her second brother to avoid the biting cold wind, and said with a smile:

"Brother, do you think my third brother went home before the two of us?"

Xu Aiguo shook his head: "Then I don't know,"

After finishing speaking, Aiguo deliberately straightened his body forward to help his sister and take the initiative to block the wind.

The two brothers and sisters returned to the compound before the snow fell in the gloomy sky. Seeing Xu Fengming drying clothes, Xu Xiaoya said in surprise:
"Third brother, when did you come back, did you wash these clothes?"

Xu Fengming curled his lips, flicked his tongue and made a crisp sound, and said: "Of course, your third brother, I am a hard-working person."

Xu Xiaoya looked disbelieving, "Third brother, isn't our sister-in-law at home today?"

"Yes, sister Lihua and Xiuying are here now, and my sister-in-law is cooking in the house, so hurry up and help."

Hearing this, Xu Xiaoya hurriedly trotted into her house, while Xu Aiguo helped third younger brother Feng Ming to pat all the clothes again, while patting the icicles on the clothes that had been drying for a long time, he asked:
"Feng Ming, is the sister Xiuying you are talking about the one who left our family a few years ago?"

Xu Fengming rubbed his hands that were red from washing clothes and said, "Yes, besides her, who else is Sister Xiuying?"

When Xu Aiguo thought about it, it seemed right.

As he spoke, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Seeing that it was snowing, Xu Fengming suddenly thought and said, "Second brother, please wait for me in the courtyard. I will go back to the house and take out the camera to take a group photo of the three of us brothers."
