"If you hadn't been taking care of things at home for me, I wouldn't be able to do my own thing with peace of mind. So, let's not thank each other anymore. After all, we have a common goal, which is to hope that our family will be happy." Life can get better and better, what do you think?"
"Yep!"
"We've arrived at the square, it's time to get off the bus."
After getting out of the car, Xu Wanning said to the four children: "You four must have places you want to see, so your parents and grandma will not accompany you, but there is one condition. No matter what you do, you The four of us are not allowed to separate. Even if we go to the bathroom, we must each wait at the door of the bathroom, do you understand?"
As the eldest brother, Song Han immediately agreed to Xu Wanning's instructions, "I know, mom, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my younger brothers and sisters."
Xu Wanning nodded, and immediately gave each of them ten dime notes, "If you have any gadgets that you like, you can buy them with your own money. If you encounter something that is too expensive, but you really like it, you can remember it first. Come here and find me later, I will take you to buy it."
"Today each of you has a limit of ten yuan. As long as it does not exceed this limit, no matter what you fancy, I will buy it for you. But the premise is that you must remember and bear in mind every word I just said. Yu Xin, is it okay?"
"No problem, Mom, we will be obedient."
"Okay, let's go play."
After the children ran away, Mother Lin hesitated and said, "Aning, you just let the four of them play by themselves?"
"if not?"
"An Ning, I don't blame you for not caring about your children, but there are many people in this square, and there must be a lot of kidnappers. Our four children are well-dressed, and they are smart at first glance. If they are caught by criminals, , what should I do if I’m kidnapped?”
Xu Wanning knew Lin's mother was worried, but there were some things she couldn't say directly. She could only look at Lin An, "Can you tell mom?"
Lin An had no choice but to say: "Mom, your worries are not unreasonable. Kidnappers have become more and more rampant recently, and there are many even in the square. Therefore, our action team has taken on a mission to uncover all those kidnappers."
When Lin An explained this, Lin's mother suddenly realized and immediately became furious.
"Lin An, Xu Wanning!" Mother Lin called out their full names angrily: "Are you such a parent? You actually let your children be used as bait, you can't think of that!"
"Mom, please calm down." Xu Wanning unscrewed the water cup she brought when going out and handed the water to Mother Lin: "Don't worry, Lin An's comrades are all around here. The safety of the children is absolutely guaranteed, otherwise Even if you give me ten courages, I wouldn’t dare to let four of them move around freely.”
Mother Lin took a sip of water, swallowed the breath that was stuck in her heart, and then patted her chest repeatedly with her hands, but did not forget to continue to glare at Xu Wanning: "You must never do this in front of the children. Mian'er said, if they find out that you two deliberately used them as bait, the four children may not know how sad they will be."
The opportunity to be accompanied by my parents, which I had finally looked forward to, was unexpectedly taken away from me. Who would feel better?
Xu Wanning and Lin An looked at each other and smiled helplessly: "Mom, they all know."
"You all know? Did you tell them?"
"Yes. Before making this decision, Lin An and I had discussed this matter face to face with the four of them. They understood our difficulties and hoped that through themselves, we could help the abducted children find a way home. Road, so they are willing to cooperate.”
"Mom, the education our children have received since childhood is different from ordinary children, so you cannot judge their thoughts based on the thinking of ordinary children. Our children are all little heroes."
Hearing Xu Wanning say this, Mother Lin's heart that had been hanging finally fell back into her stomach.
She patted her chest and exhaled a breath: "I'm just saying, no matter how bold you two are, you can't do such a thing. It's because I worry too much. An Ning, I'm sorry just now, mom." I should talk to you so loudly."
"I know you are also worried about the children, so how can I blame you? It's also my fault, Lin An and I, for not making it clear to you at the beginning. By the way, Mom, look there are people taking pictures over there, let's go and take some pictures too .”
"well."
Mother Lin was supported by Xu Wanning and arrived at the photo booth.
There was a wooden board erected on the stall with the price of taking photos written on it.
A single photo costs RMB 1, a photo of a couple costs RMB 1.5, and a photo of three or more people costs RMB 2.
There is only one photo, but you can wash it for more. Each additional photo will cost an additional 50 cents.
"Why is it so expensive?"
One yuan is enough to buy more than a pound of pure lean meat.
"Mom, don't worry about money. I'll take a few more pictures for you today."
"No, I won't let you pay. Mom has money."
Mother Lin took out a roll of banknotes from her satchel and counted three yuan.
"Take a photo of me alone, and then take a photo of my daughter-in-law and my son together, and then wash one more photo of the group photo. It costs three yuan in total. Come on, I'll give you all the money."
"Sister, let's wait until the photos come out and you'll be satisfied before we collect the money."
"The relationship is good, so let me see how your photo goes. But let's make a deal first, and you won't accept any money from my daughter-in-law later."
Xu Wanning smiled helplessly: "Mom, I won't compete with you. I will use your money to take pictures today."
"That's no problem. Mom still has money here. When Song Han and the others come back later, I'll take pictures for them too."
Under the guidance of the boss, Mother Lin stood under the city gate.
She posed, but she felt very reserved. She changed several positions back and forth, raising her hands to straighten her hair and clothes from time to time, "A-Ning, do you think this is okay for mom?"
"Why can't it be done? It looks very good."
"Mom, stand still and don't move back and forth, otherwise you won't be able to take the photo."
"Okay, then I won't move."
Mother Lin changed back to her original posture.
"Very good, eldest sister, come and shout to me, one, two, three, eggplant."
"eggplant."
"Click—"
Mother Lin's photo was frozen.
When Mother Lin came over, the Polaroid photo had already been typed out.
"Sister, what do you think of this photo?"
"Okay, it's so beautiful." Mother Lin held her photo and looked back and forth lovingly, "An Ning, Anzi, you two go quickly, the boss will take a photo of you two too."
Xu Wanning looked up at Lin An: "Let's go, let's go and take a picture too."
It has been so long since she traveled back in time, except for the one-inch bareheaded photo taken during the college entrance examination and the ID photo taken when she was in college, she has never taken any serious photos.
