Last time, Tang Mingzhu took a lot of photos of Shen Dandan. Before she returned to Jiangcheng, she gave the film to Zhao Hanyu to develop. It was the first time in Shen Dandan's life that she got photos.

She especially likes it.

When she saw Tang Mingzhu, Shen Dandan wanted to take pictures again, so she asked naturally.

"No more taking pictures today!" Tang Mingzhu said with a smile.

She didn't mean to spoil Shen Dandan's fun. Firstly, she had walked such a long distance on the mountain road today and she was really tired. Once she sat down, she didn't want to move at all.

Secondly, she had taken many photos on the way to Baiguo Township and when she and Shen Qiansan were wandering around Baiguo Township, and the film in her camera was almost used up. Even if she wanted to take photos of Shen Dandan, she could not take many photos.

When Shen Dandan heard that there would be no photo taking today, she couldn't help but look a little disappointed.

Children are so real. They won’t hide whether they are happy or unhappy, it all shows on their faces.

So people should be simple at the beginning, but become complicated as they continue to learn and grow, and what they say and do are often inconsistent with their inner thoughts.

Seeing the little guy's lost look, Tang Mingzhu felt guilty. How could she reject such a cute little guy?

She quickly took off the camera hanging on her chest and said, "I knew you wanted to take pictures. I brought my camera with me. I was just teasing you. Come on, I'll take a few pictures for you."

"That's great!" Shen Dandan's face immediately turned from gloomy to bright, and she smiled like a flower, and shouted, "Take a picture of me and Sisi first."

After saying that, he walked to Li Sisi and leaned close to her.

"Crack!"

Tang Mingzhu took a quick photo of the two little guys and asked with a smile, "Who else are you taking photos with?"

Shen Dandan looked at the people sitting in the room, grandpa, grandma, mom, and Uncle Zhao. They seemed to have taken a photo together last time. After thinking for a while, she looked at Li Sisi again and said, "Aunt Tang, can you take a photo of Sisi and Aunt Li together later?"

The last time Tang Mingzhu was taking photos at home, Li Sisi was there too. She took a few photos of her, including a solo photo of Li Sisi and a group photo of her with Shen Dandan. However, Li Jing hadn't come yet, so she wasn't photographed.

Li Sisi was very envious when she saw the photo of Shen Dandan with her whole family, as she hadn’t taken a photo with her mother yet!

The two little ones have a very good relationship. During the chat, Li Sisi said that she also wanted to take a photo with her mother.

Shen Dandan took note of this.

When she heard Tang Mingzhu ask, she told him.

After hearing this, Li Sisi's eyes lit up and she looked at Tang Mingzhu expectantly, but she was obedient and didn't say a word.

Tang Mingzhu had never met Li Jing, but she knew her because of Li Sisi. She smiled and said, "No problem!"

After that, he asked Li Sisi, "Sisi, when will your mother come to pick you up?"

Li Sisi replied: "Mom will be here in a little while."

After he finished speaking, he paused and asked cautiously, "Aunt Tang, can you really take a photo of me and my mom? I heard from my mom that taking photos is quite expensive!"

Last time she brought the photo home to show her mother, her mother was happy but also told her that a photo cost a lot of money.

In this regard, she is more sensible than Shen Dandan.

Tang Mingzhu heard this and said with a smile: "Others charge for taking photos, but I don't charge for taking photos."

Li Sisi didn't believe it and said, "It must be Uncle Shen who gave the money to Aunt Tang."

Tang Mingzhu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

This little girl is quite cute, too.

After laughing, she said, "I guess so!"

She remembered that the last time Zhao Hanyu sent her off at the train station, he gave her a thick red envelope.

She said she was just doing a favor, why should I give her a red envelope?

Zhao Hanyu said that the red envelope was given by his third brother and he insisted that she accept it.

As a result, she opened the red envelope and found thirty blue bills inside.

That is three thousand yuan.

She almost got scared.

It’s not like she hasn’t received gifts or red envelopes when she was a reporter, but they were all worthless local specialties, and even if they were red envelopes, the amount was only five or ten yuan at most.

I have never received a red envelope as big as 3,000 yuan.

She worked as a reporter at a provincial daily newspaper. She had good salary and benefits, but made less than 300 yuan a month.

Two thousand yuan is almost her salary for half a year!

This is because she has a high income. If she were an ordinary worker, it would definitely be more than one year or even two years' salary.

She could ask Zhao Hanyu for a fireplace table, she could take the initiative to propose to live in Zhao Hanyu's house, or she could take a bus hundreds of kilometers from Jiangcheng to Qingwa City just because Zhao Hanyu said a word. All of this was because of their friendship and there was no need for her to be pretentious.

Even if Zhao Hanyu gave her a red envelope of several dozen yuan, she would have taken it since she knew that Zhao Hanyu was not short of money.

But Tang Mingzhu refused to accept such a huge red envelope of 3,000 yuan.

Zhao Hanyu said, "Third brother said that this red envelope is not a reward for hard work, but a payment for knowledge. It is a respect for the copyright of the product photos you took."

"So you must accept this money!"

At that time, Tang Mingzhu was stunned.

By 1991, more than ten years had passed since the reform and opening up, and a market economy was gradually being established. However, the vast majority of people knew nothing about copyright or intellectual property rights and had no awareness of it at all.

Unfortunately, as a journalist, Tang Mingzhu has actually paid attention to this issue and even wrote a related report before.

But that was like a stone sinking into the sea, hardly causing any waves.

That’s in the provincial capital, Jiangcheng!

She never expected that in a prefecture-level city like Qingwa City, there would be people who attach importance to copyright.

And it was not just ordinary importance. Shen Qiansan gave three thousand yuan at once.

This can be said to be a sky-high price at the moment.

Moreover, Shen Qiansan's words "paying for knowledge" made her once again refresh the position of her third brother in her heart.

No one had ever mentioned it so clearly before, and she thought it was a great idea.

There is a real feeling of being respected.

This is also the reason why she resigned three days after returning to Jiangcheng and came to Qingwa City so quickly.

Shen Qiansan's words were definitely the accelerator that accelerated her speed.

Following someone who could say such words and put them into practice with a huge amount of money, she absolutely believed that there would be a bright future ahead of her.

So after Li Sisi said that it was Shen Qiansan who gave the money, she said it was true.

After hearing what Tang Mingzhu said, Li Sisi seemed relieved and said, “Although Uncle Shen gave Auntie the money, I still thank Auntie.”

"Mom said that when Aunt Chen's restaurant opens, she will treat you to a meal."

Tang Mingzhu was delighted by this. She said no, then turned to look at Chen Shuting and asked in surprise, "Sister-in-law, you opened a restaurant?"

Previously, Zhao Hanyu told Tang Mingzhu about the projects that Shen Qiansan was going to do. They were all big projects, and small things like opening a restaurant were not mentioned, so Tang Mingzhu didn't know about it yet.

Chen Shuting said, "It's not really my business. I didn't manage anything. Third brother insisted on opening it, so I opened it."
