Chapter 9 (8)

On the second day when I was frustrated in the bar, I kicked the guitar to a dead corner under the bed. Since then, I have devoted myself to studying my photography skills. During the summer vacation, I took more than a dozen volumes of black and white Lucky for Xiaohong, but I haven’t made a single one until now. For the photos, I gave myself a death order: all rushed out within ten days! So I went through another ten days of inhuman torture. Because the big thick photography book called New York said very little about the darkroom, I could only figure it out by myself. My scalp was numb: the enlarger, camera paper, and so many pots and pots, so many potions and prescriptions, I didn’t know how to use them or in what order. I spent half the first night in the water room to arrange things. Then it took half the night to put things away, and there was no way to start!On the second night, Dasaw accompanied me to take the photo paper and dip it like a dumpling, dipping this and that, but still no one came out. On the third night, I announced that someone would make me a man on the photo paper , I took a photo album for him, so Dazhao Rumeng, Boss, Boss, K, and other garbage men all arrived. After breaking a thermometer and overturning the secondary developing basin in the middle of the night, the five men lamented silently: " The ancients are right! Scholar is useless! Scholar is useless!"

When we were collecting the stalls, the "little guy" of the big saw house suddenly passed by, holding the trousers in one hand and waving the other hand, pressing the button, and after a few clicks, a figure appeared, look Watching Yang Hong appear little by little on the photo paper, I raised the "little one" with great excitement. In the next few nights, "Little Budian" accompanied me quietly every day and taught me a lot of darkroom knowledge, but I always feel a little bit guilty. "Little" and I were in the same room, and within a few days of school, we had a fight over something as big as a piece of rubber: I slapped him, and he poured his face on my bed Basin of cold water (this made the big saw who heard the news and came to persuade the fight very dissatisfied, calling us "old women fighting war"), and then the boss bought our house, and we haven't talked much in the past two years, but I can't blame it all. In fact, in the past two years at school, he didn't talk much to anyone.

Little guy, he is extremely smart. He won prizes in the provincial mathematics competition when he was in high school, and he also had great inventions such as astronomical telescopes, but he was also very extreme sometimes. : "I don't think life is boring if you don't be like Einstein!" The classmates were in an uproar, which stunned the old K who spoke later, and almost said: "I think life is boring if you don't have sex!" "Little one, who taught you this craft?" I asked one night while waiting for the negatives to dry. "My dad is a chemistry teacher. He taught me how to develop photos in the darkroom at home when I was in elementary school."

"The teacher's child is happiness!" I sighed. "There are also bad things, such as never daring to skip classes or something." "By the way, why do you seem to be unwilling to go to class now?" "The level of teachers in our school is not good!" Xiao BuDian said lightly. "Isn't it good to shake your head and tail!" "It's pure nonsense. In fact, their mathematical literacy and logical structure are not as good as our high school teachers." "Then your university is in vain!" I teased him deliberately. "Yes, it's for nothing! I haven't even been in a relationship!" Xiao BuDian smiled shyly at me.

I suddenly felt sad, and an inexplicable sadness rushed over. It was a kind of sadness brought about by innate sensitivity. I couldn't tell whether the sadness was for my little one or for myself. So there is lingering sadness. "What did you like to play before?" I changed the subject to hide my emotions. "In terms of astronomy, observe some constellations or something." "Isn't that stuffy? It's so far away, it's motionless!" "Not boring! There is another time and space, an unknown time and space is very interesting!" Xiao Budian gave me a rare air.

"Have you observed it recently? Show me." Haven't watched it in ages, I'm not that interested in these after college. " "What's the matter?" "I don't know, maybe it's because I'm old!" "How old are you, are you still a person like Einstein?" I teased him. "I don't know." After he finished speaking, he lowered his head quietly, and I immediately regretted that I shouldn't touch him. "I think, to be a person like Einstein may not necessarily be engaged in science!" He said after a long silence.

"Then what are you doing, what kind of thinking are you doing!" I asked with a smile. "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!" Xiao BuDian complained softly to me, then stopped talking.
