Chapter 1410 Family portrait (finale)
"Crackling..."
Hearing the sound of firecrackers, Tian Shao said to Si Ya who was still clacking: "Everyone has set off firecrackers for lunch, we have to go back."
Si Ya was in high spirits, she said: "Sister, let's continue to shoot after lunch!"
Tian Shao looked up at the sun hanging in mid-air, the winter sun shone on his body, making him feel warm. She smiled and said, "You go to your third uncle's house to find Tian Tao and see if she has time? If you have time, ask her to come over after lunch and take a picture of our family."
The whole family hasn't taken a photo for so many years. Of course, it wasn't that Tian Shao didn't want to take pictures, but that there was not enough people. Liu Ya went abroad, she didn't come back, and Er Ya was busy with business and stayed in Yongning County. This time it’s rare that they all came back, and my husband and children brought them with me, so I’m sure I’ll take a picture.
Siya asked doubtfully, "Will Tian Tao know how to shoot?"
"Don't worry, Tian Tao knows more than you."
Before, there were rumors in the village that the aura of their family was all in their daughters. Although it was superstitious, none of the sons of the three brothers were outstanding.
"good."
When the group returned home, Li Guihua wiped her hands on the apron and said, "There is only one big dish left. If I don't come back, I will have to go find you."
Tian Shao saw that Sanya was accompanying Miaomiao in the yard, and Li Guihua looked relaxed again, so she couldn't help asking: "Mother, is Daddy in charge today?"
As far as Tian Dalin's craftsmanship is concerned, the meal at noon is probably not good for Si Ya.
At this moment, Tian Dalin came out of the room. Li Guihua joked: "Da Linzi, did you hear that, your eldest daughter is worried that you won't be able to eat the dishes after cooking. From now on, don't say that your fried dishes are delicious."
Tian Dalin said with a smile: "Your uncle brought a plate of braised pig's trotters just now, and when he saw your mother cooking, he kicked her out and took charge of the cooking himself."
Si Ya said happily after hearing this: "Uncle is in charge of the spoon? It seems that I have to eat again today."
Not long after Li Erkui married Wang Zhi, Mrs. Li proposed to withdraw her shares. She really hated Wang Zhi's face, plus she got the true biography of Uncle Li, after she quit her shares, she rented a store next to the vegetable market to sell braised meat.
San Kui spent a lot of money to help them buy a stewed food recipe. After getting the recipe, the stewed vegetable shop suddenly became popular. In half a year, Mrs. Li earned back the money she bought for the lo-mei recipes, and after a year, Mrs. Li bought the shop again.
Sister-in-law Li felt that the little money Li Dakui earned in the transportation company was meaningless, so she asked him to resign and the husband and wife ran a stewed meat shop together. It was also because the stewed meat shop made money that Tian Shao proposed to let Uncle Li take Sibao to study in Sijiu City before. Now that the husband and wife can afford to buy him a small house in Sijiu City, the matter of settling down is not a problem .
Tian Shao entered the kitchen and said to the uncle who was so hot that his forehead was sweating, "Uncle, let me come!"
Uncle Li waved his hand and refused, and said: "It's okay, your cousin is in charge of the cooking at home. Your mother and father are not good at craftsmanship, and I will be idle when I am free. Don't waste good ingredients. You go and take the children, and the dishes will be cooked immediately." Enough."
Tian Dalin and Li Guihua didn't care about it, and they really didn't care about their cooking skills compared to their elder brother.
After finishing several big dishes, Uncle Li went back. No one stopped him this time. This is a regular meal at noon on New Year's Eve, and he must go home to eat.
When he was leaving, Tian Shao smiled and said: "Uncle, I brought a camera here this time. After we finish shooting, I will go over and take pictures for you."
Because of Shuhui's pregnancy, Sankui stayed in Hong Kong City and never came back, so she didn't talk about taking a family portrait, but Uncle Li and Aunt Li already knew that Shuhui was pregnant with a son.
Uncle Li waved his hand and said with a smile: "If you want to take pictures, you can take pictures yourself, and your aunt and I don't need it."
Li Guihua persuaded: "Brother, you and sister-in-law don't take pictures, but the children have to. This child is always on the lookout, and will change after a few years. Now take more photos, and it will be interesting to look through them when you are free. of."
Uncle Li didn't refuse after hearing this.
After Tian Shao sent Uncle Li out of the house, she turned around and came back to help serve the dishes in the kitchen, but was stopped by Li Guihua: "Siya and Wuya are here, you don't need to do these things, you take care of the two children Just do it."
After speaking, she took Min Yu's hand to the basin. While the child was washing his hands, she whispered, "Don't mention Erkui when I go to your uncle's house later, or your uncle and aunt will be unhappy when they hear about it."
Tian Shao understood right away that Li Erkui hadn't come back for the New Year: "Why, for the sake of a third, Li Erkui didn't even want his parents?"
Li Guihua sighed and said: "He gave Jasmine to Wang Zhi, and your uncle slapped him twice in a fit of anger. After that time, he never wanted to see your uncle again."
Tian Shao thought that Li Erkui had a bad character and refused to deal with him after the job where Li Erkui wanted to grab the third prize. Later Uncle Li begged her to support Li Erkui, but she was unwilling. Facts have proved that she is right, she can take away her brother's job or not have parents and children.
Speaking of this incident, Li Guihua felt very uncomfortable: "Your uncle has always been lenient, but now whenever he is mentioned, he can't help but sigh. This child is really heartless."
Tian Shao said: "I said at the beginning that this person is selfish and only has himself in his heart, but you just said that Chen Yan instigated it. Now? Is it Chen Yan's instigation or is he fundamentally broken?"
"What are you still arguing with me about right or wrong at this time?"
Tian Shao explained: "Mother, I'm not arguing with you anymore. I'm just telling you that a person like him can't go far. It was my uncle who tried his best to help him up when he fell so badly before; But if he falls down in the future, no one will help him up again."
She would definitely not be able to help Li Erkui, even if Uncle Li would not agree to her begging in the future; as for Li Dakui and Li Sankui, as far as what he did, it would be out of the question in the future. But as far as Li Erkui's nature is concerned, no matter what situation he falls into, he deserves it.
Li Guihua thought of what she said before to make Li Erkui poor, and reminded: "Whether he will be richer or poor in the future depends on his fate, but you are not allowed to intervene."
"I don't have that much free time!"
Those who attain the Dao will be helped more than those who have lost the Dao. People like Li Erkui will fall badly if they don't use her hand. "
After washing the children's hands, Tian Shao led them to the main room. The Tian family has increased from the original eight people to sixteen people, and there is no room for one table, so they divided it into two tables.
Siya looked at the dishes on the table, her eyes shining brightly. Today's main course includes braised pork, fried sea cucumber with scallions, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised chicken with conch and abalone, stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, golden potato shrimp balls, spicy swimming crab, pork elbow in sauce, and four other vegetables.
Li Guihua said to the crowd: "The prawns, sea cucumbers, swimming crabs and abalones were all brought back by the director of the clothing factory under the guidance of Sankui."
Because of these aquatic products, Suozhu also had the idea of selling fresh food, but he gave up after knowing the cost. The death rate is too high to be worthwhile.
Siya asked strangely: "Isn't Cousin Sankui in Hong Kong City? How can he still ask the factory manager to deliver seafood back?"
Li Guihua smiled and said: "You have stayed in Yangcheng for so long, don't you know that Yangcheng is very close to Hong Kong City. And now the two sides are talking on the phone, just make a phone call."
Tian Shao felt that these fresh foods were not given by San Kui, this kid didn't think about things that carefully, it should be Zhuang Yipeng who bought them and delivered them to his home. But as long as she knows about it, she doesn't need to tell Li Guihua.
Si Ya smelled the aroma, and said impatiently: "Sister, mother, don't talk, let's eat."
Caught a crab leg, Si Ya took a bite and exclaimed: "Sister San, your cooking skills are getting better and better now, this swimming crab is really delicious."
This swimming crab was made by Sanya, who learned from Li Chun.
Tian Shao saw that she was eating with gusto, and said: "Siya, after dinner, you and Wuya and Liuya clean up together. Don't be the same as before, just throw your chopsticks away and go back to the house after dinner."
Siya felt stunned when she heard this, and immediately said, "Sister, before going back to school, I'll take care of the dishes at home."
"Not enough."
"Then sweep the floor and do the laundry."
Upon hearing this, Li Guihua said quickly: "I don't need her to wash the clothes, it's like they haven't been washed. Let her wash the dishes and sweep the floor, and then teach them a little homework, and then teach them English."
She has also changed her mind now, as long as Siya can make money, it doesn't matter if she can't do housework and just hire someone.
Siya felt that the sun came out from the west today, but it was a good thing for her.
Because they had to take a family portrait after the meal, neither Tian Dalin nor Tan Yue drank any alcohol. So this meal was finished in less than half an hour.
Although Siya said she would wash the dishes, Wuya and Liuya still helped clean up together.
Before Tian Tao came after packing up, Liu Ya took the camera to take pictures of Tian Dalin and Li Guihua.
Li Guihua is still wearing her work clothes, and since she sells clothes, she has paid attention to her image, so she is not happy to take pictures like this: "You take pictures for your elder sister and others first, and I will go back to the house with your father and change clothes."
Liuya feels that Li Guihua has really changed a lot in the past few years of going abroad, but she likes this kind of change very much.
After she said this, everyone immediately went back to the house to change clothes. The new clothes were supposed to be worn after taking a shower at night, but I don't care about them now, I'll put them on first.
Seeing that Tian Dalin and Li Guihua were wearing Tang suits, and the workmanship was exquisite, Liuya asked in amazement: "Father, mother, your clothes look good, where did you buy them?"
Li Guihua said with a smile on her face: "Your eldest sister bought it, and I don't know where I bought it. It looks good, right? Me and your father also think it looks good."
She tried on the clothes as soon as it was sent back. Not only was it warm, but the fabric was very comfortable to the touch. If it was before, he would definitely be reluctant, but after knowing that Tian Shao earns millions every year, he keeps everything he buys for her and never complains.
Sanya saw this style for the first time, and felt that selling it in her own store would definitely sell well: "Sister, where did you buy this dress?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "I didn't buy it, I asked the master chef over there to make it. Besides these two suits, I also ordered several cheongsams."
Nowadays, the mainland is still relatively conservative. Wearing a cheongsam in summer will be judged by others. She didn't want people to criticize her, so the cheongsams were left in Hong Kong and not brought back to the mainland.
Siya also liked it very much, and said, "Eldest sister, I will also wear a Tang suit next year."
Tian Shao nodded and said: "Yes, but now you can make money, and you can buy food and clothing yourself in the future."
"good."
As a result, when Siya knew the price of such a set of clothes in the second year, she was reluctant to part with it. Don't think that translation makes a lot of money, but it's hard money. Of course, the most important thing is to hand over four-fifths of the money earned, and keep the rest for the restaurant, Si Ya would not be willing to buy such expensive clothes.
Sanya decided to sell this kind of clothes next year. Nowadays, young people pursue fashion, but they don't like this kind of old-fashioned things. On the contrary, old people will like it.
Tian Shao took a camera to take pictures of Tian Dalin and Li Guihua, and then the five children went to take pictures with them. Just as they were filming, Tian Tao came over.
Tian Tao saw that they were already taking pictures, and said a little embarrassedly: "Sister, I thought you were not so fast, so you came here late on purpose."
She was about to come over after eating, but was stopped by Tian Sanlin. Tian Sanlin thinks that Tian Dalin will drink with his son-in-law, and this man will not stop drinking for an hour. He didn't think wrong, but he didn't expect that Tian Dalin and his three sons-in-law didn't drink for the sake of taking pictures.
Tian Shao hasn't seen Tian Tao for several years, and when he saw her today, he found that the changes were particularly great. I remember the last time she saw Tian Tao, she was dark and thin, now she is tall and her skin is much fairer, the most important thing is that she is full of confidence.
Liuya smiled and said: "It's okay, we were taking pictures by ourselves just now. Sister Taozi, you know how to take pictures, right?"
Tian Tao nodded and said: "My partner likes to take pictures very much, he taught me specially."
Actually, her partner wanted to get married earlier, but Tian Tao wanted to get a college diploma and was unwilling to get married so early. After all, once you get married and have children, it is difficult to concentrate on your studies.
Tian Shao heard San Kui mention it before, saying that Tian Tao’s partner likes to take pictures very much. Before that, he saved money for a year to buy a good camera. From San Kui's words, Tian Shao knew that the other party was a photographer.
Liuya handed the camera to Tian Tao with confidence, and let Tian Dalin and Li Guihua stand at the front.
Tian Shao looked at it, thought for a while and said: "Go to the house and move two chairs. Father and mother are holding Min Yu and Min Ji and sitting in the middle, and Diandian and Niu Niu are standing next to them."
In the second row, the Erya couple and the Sanya couple, and then Wu Zhengqing hugging Miaomiao; in the third row, Tian Shao, Tan Yue and Siya.
After Tian Tao saw that they were all standing up, she tried to take two shots first, and then said with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, cousin, I will call three later, you call eggplant loudly."
Tian Shao thinks this is very stupid, but it is rare to get together to take a family portrait, so be stupid!
Tian Dalin nodded and said, "Okay."
"one two three…"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Eggplant."
"click..."
When the camera shutter was pressed, this moment of happiness was left behind.
