Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Chapter 832: Chapter 832: Photography

Du Fengying held the two children first, allowing Jiang Xinyu to eat. Then they switched places.

Little Shi Xian was truly tempted by the food, reaching out non-stop.

Jiang Xinyu bounced him for a while and whispered, ”Baby, you can’t eat yet, don’t rush.”

How could the child understand? He only knew he couldn’t get it, so he became a bit anxious.

Left with no choice, Jiang Xinyu had to pick up both children and head out, hoping they would calm down once away from the dining table.

However, she underestimated Little Shi Xian’s determination, as the little guy began crying loudly with his eyes closed before even reaching the restaurant door.

Jiang Xinyu was genuinely a bit upset, but she knew the child was still young and didn’t understand much. So, this time, she didn’t yield to his demands but firmly walked out of the restaurant.

Shi Xian now weighed twenty-two pounds, and Tingting weighed twenty pounds. Holding both children at the same time was indeed quite strenuous.

Suddenly, from the side came a voice, ”Comrade, do you need help?”

Jiang Xinyu turned her head to glance, ”Thank you, Comrade, but it’s okay. My sister will be out in a moment.”

Jiang Xinyu was truly amazed by the man’s appearance; it wasn’t like the young handsome boys from before, but a manly beauty.

Who would’ve thought this little place would have such handsome people?

Jiang Xinyu nodded slightly and continued walking forward.

Du Fengying hurriedly finished her meal, returned the bowls and chopsticks, and went after Jiang Xinyu.

Carrying two children alone was too exhausting, especially with Shi Xian currently fussing.

Wu Chenyu looked at the back of the woman who rejected him and found it amusing. Was he being ignored? This had never happened before; whether they were young girls or elderly women, they all showered him with enthusiasm. This woman was quite different, though the momentary amazement in her eyes didn’t carry that greedy emotion.

Wu Chenyu entered the restaurant with a smile, ordered a serving of braised pork, and the waitress shyly gave him a bowl full of the fattiest, greasiest pieces, even more than one and a half times what others got.

”Thank you, Comrade,” Wu Chenyu thanked the waitress with a smile, noticing her admiring gaze, but still feeling uncomfortable all over.

Du Fengying caught up with Jiang Xinyu, initially wanting to take Tingting, but little Shi Xian reached out instead.

Jiang Xinyu found it slightly amusing; was he upset with her?

Holding the children, they went directly to the photo studio. Since people there were eating, Jiang Xinyu had no choice but to take the kids for a stroll down the street.

It wasn’t out of embarrassment, but rather the fear that Shi Xian might act up again. How could a kid so young already want to eat? It would be extremely awkward then. Better to walk around outside; in fifteen minutes, they could surely get the photos taken.

”Xiao Jiang, I just saw a particularly handsome man coming out of the restaurant,” Du Fengying said with a smile. ”I’ve never seen anyone that good-looking, always thought Mr. Lv was quite handsome, but compared to that guy just now, there’s no comparison. But our Shi Xian will definitely not fall short in the future.”

”I saw him too; indeed, he looks quite good.”

The two, each holding a child, wandered outside for a while before entering the photo studio.

The photo session went quite smoothly. Shi Xian was the life of the party; the photographer liked children and knew how to amuse him.

So Shi Xian was very cooperative, his face full of smiles.

The photographer liked Shi Xian so much that he took many photos of him, practically unable to stop.

When it was the little girl’s turn, there weren’t as many photos as Shi Xian’s; the little girl was very reserved in her pictures.

Jiang Xinyu smacked her forehead on the side; the personalities of these two children were really quite different.

However, when she held the little girl for their photos, the girl’s face blossomed with more smiles, so they had quite a few photos together.

In the end, Jiang Xinyu took all the photos, totaling sixty-three. There was one solo photo of Du Fengying and one with her holding the two children, with Shi Xian having the most pictures.

By the time they finished, it was already three-thirty in the afternoon.

After packing the children’s change of clothes and paying, they left with the children.

The photos would be ready for pickup with a receipt in ten days.

Jiang Xinyu had already fed the two children at the photo studio, so they walked to the supply and marketing cooperative.

There was actually nothing much missing at home, but Jiang Xinyu still bought thirty pencils, thirty grid notebooks, two reams of toilet paper, and twenty candles.

Because they also needed to make preserves, she bought three pounds of brown sugar and five pounds of rock sugar.

The people at the cooperative were envious watching Jiang Xinyu spend money like that.

Wu Chenyu, who was also there shopping, noticed Jiang Xinyu too.

Thinking to himself, this woman didn’t seem like an ordinary person. The way she spent, she must be well-off.

”Xiao Jiang, we still need to buy some salt.”

”Sister Du, there’s still a bag in the warehouse; it’s enough.”

In the end, Jiang Xinyu carried the two children while Du Fengying carried all the things.

It was now close to five o’clock, and it was getting dark; they’d better hurry home. They’d been out all day; fortunately, there was no one at home waiting to be fed.

Wu Chenyu followed them from a distance, watching the two get in the car, seeing Jiang Xinyu drive away, confirming his suspicion that she really was not an ordinary person.

Meanwhile, Li Xue and her siblings only arrived in the city at midnight. But the stop was still some distance from home.

”Sis, give me the key, I’ll go home to get the cart, and I’ll be back in a bit.”

”Okay, that’s easier.”

At the stop, only Li Xue and Hongling were left.

The two sat directly on the bags.

”Sis, look, there’s our mom.” Hongling said and was about to call out to Liang Caifeng.

”Hongling, wait a minute, don’t call her now. I’ll talk to you when we get home.” Li Xue hadn’t told her two brothers about their parents’ divorce yet.

”Sis?”

”Hongling, be good. I’ll explain when we get home.”

”Who is the man with Mom, sis?”

Li Xue shook her head, feeling deeply pained in her heart. Seeing it directly made her truly realize their parents were divorced.

The younger brother was still small, but he must have noticed their mom’s unusual relationship with that man.

The smile on mom’s face was one she had never seen before.

Hongling was very puzzled why his sister didn’t let him call their mom.

When the Red Army arrived, the three siblings pushed the cart home.

On the way, Hongling talked about what happened earlier, and, being older, the Red Army looked at their sister after hearing it.

”I’ll tell you when we get home; it’s inconvenient to talk outside.”

Hearing his sister say this, the Red Army had a bad feeling.
