Chapter 75 61 Visiting Fuxian Lake
On Children's Day, my brother, sister-in-law and nephew went to Yunnan for a trip.
The original owner was a well-known photography blogger whose photography works had won many awards. Her brother and sister-in-law also wanted to hire a photographer for free, so they brought the original owner along.
Although it was an invitation, the original owner still had to pay for her travel expenses herself.
If the original owner had not recently invested all her money in the studio, she might have to pay for her brother, sister-in-law and their family's food, clothing, housing and transportation.
First, we checked in at Lijiang Ancient Town. The original owner just took pictures the whole time, taking pictures of the scenery, people, and food. When she returned to the hotel at night, she had to use her computer to edit the photos. Her sister-in-law was still waiting for her to post the photos on WeChat Moments.
The second stop was Yulong Snow Mountain. Due to the torture of altitude sickness, the original owner felt dizzy and had difficulty breathing, but she still endured the physical discomfort and tried hard to take pictures of her brother, sister-in-law and their family.
Every time she pressed the shutter, she felt more dizzy.
That night, the original owner developed a high fever. Her brother and sister-in-law thought that the original owner was being pampered, but they didn't want to scold her, so they called the original owner's parents to complain.
The original owner's mother scolded the original owner without asking the reason. The original owner valued family affection and felt that he had ruined the interest of his brother and sister-in-law's family, so he took a strong potion and risked his life to accompany them the next day.
The next day they went to Fuxian Lake. The original owner had done his homework in advance and knew the cliff-like water level of Fuxian Lake. On the way, he had already explained to his brother and sister-in-law the dangers of Fuxian Lake and the precautions.
But when they arrived at Fuxian Lake, the three brothers turned a deaf ear to the original owner's words. Under the crying of their nephew, the brother and sister-in-law pulled the original owner onto the boat, and they rowed excitedly in the water.
The original owner watched the boat getting farther and farther away from the shore and reminded them that Fuxian Lake was dangerous, but they didn't listen and wanted to row towards the center of the lake.
But when we reached the black waters, my nephew wanted to go back, crying and making a fuss on the boat, and the boat was shaking because of his behavior.
The boat took on a lot of water and was about to sink. My brother and sister-in-law's first thought was to push the original owner off to reduce the weight of the boat.
The original owner was pushed into Fuxian Lake by the two people he trusted most and sank to the bottom of the lake.
After the original owner died, the studio was sold by his brother and sister-in-law, who also used the original owner's death to create a tragic story.
……
When Zhang Shan came over, she was holding a bank card in her hand. The card contained the original owner's meager savings. She was planning to make a huge investment to expand her studio.
Zhang Shan quickly put the card away and took out her phone. "Xiao Li, maybe I'm not suitable for starting a business. Can you help me find someone to sell all those equipment?"
"Boss, are you really quitting?"
The studio's prospects are still good, and the original boss is pretty good. Xiaoli doesn't want to change the boss unless it's absolutely necessary.
“I can’t do it anymore.”
I'm about to run away and become a ghost.
She was not worthy of enjoying the original owner's home.
Her parents favored boys over girls, her brother and sister-in-law were vampires, and her nephew was a naughty kid. They were afraid that the original owner would not be able to contribute to the family after marriage, so they destroyed several of her relationships.
Zhang Shan can't do this kind of hard work.
When I got home, I saw my sister-in-law lying on the sofa, eating an apple and watching TV. The floor was covered with the fruit cores and melon seed shells she had left over.
"Shanshan is back? Why so early? Is it because there are not many customers in the studio?"
"It's okay. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are Children's Day. There will definitely be a lot of people looking for you to take pictures."
"Now that you are back, go to school and take Xiaobao home."
Zhang Shan hadn't even changed her shoes when the phone rang. "What did you say? OK, I'll be there right away."
"Sister-in-law, something happened in my studio. I don't know when I can come back. You can go pick up Xiaobao by yourself."
"Hey, take Xiaobao back first and then go back to work. Your work won't run away!"
The sound of Zhang Shan closing the door responded to her.
This phone call really comes at the right time!
Zhang Shan went downstairs, rode her electric scooter, and ran to the studio. Xiaoli said that she had found a buyer and asked her to come over to discuss the price.
After all the equipment was sold, Zhang Shan invited Xiaoli to dinner before going home. As they were colleagues, it was considered a farewell. Besides, if she went home at this time, there would be no food at home.
Zhang Shan’s guess was correct. When she returned home, they really didn’t leave any food for her.
The family gathered around the TV, eating the grapes that the original owner had bought last night.
"Is Shanshan back?"
"Well, have you eaten yet?"
"I've eaten, but you haven't eaten yet? There are still some vegetables in the refrigerator. You can cook some clear soup noodles. Don't eat big fish or meat at night, otherwise you will get bloating at night."
"Sister-in-law is right. I'm on a diet so I won't eat it."
"That's right, you're so fat, eat less."
Zhang Shan was about to go back to her room when her sister-in-law stopped her. "Xiaobao wants to travel. Your studio is not busy anyway. Come with us. Take a picture of Xiaobao. He will thank you when he grows up."
"Tomorrow is Children's Day, my studio..."
Zhang Shan repeated to her what her sister-in-law had said not long ago.
But before the sister-in-law could refute, the original owner's mother could no longer sit still.
"Your sister-in-law kindly asked you to go on a trip, but you refused. Look at which family of three would bring a burden with them? Your sister-in-law is the only one who is kind. Remember to take more pictures of my eldest grandson. There are still too few pictures of him."
Zhang Shan subconsciously looked at the TV background wall and her nephew's room, which were full of photos of her nephew. On the other hand, the original owner only had two or three photos sandwiched in a notebook, which were taken by Xiaoli.
"I know, Mom."
"It's good that you know. You are Xiaobao's aunt for this trip, so you have to pay for it, right? Don't let my eldest grandson suffer."
"Mom, this may not work. You know I want to expand my studio, and I've invested all my savings over the past few years, but it may not be enough. Mom, can you lend me some..."
"I don't have any money!" Mother Zhang turned around and continued watching TV without even glancing at Zhang Shan.
"sister in law……"
My sister-in-law smiled awkwardly, "Shanshan, you know, I don't have a job, and Xiaobao is still studying. Your brother's money is not enough for our family of three, and I can't do anything."
Zhang Shan expressed great disappointment.
But this time, the expenses were provided by Zhang's mother, and it was heard that Zhang Shan's treatment was on the same level as theirs. Zhang Shan expressed her happiness about this.
In the evening, Zhang Shan asked the system to check the savings of the original owner's parents and found that their combined savings were only more than 10,000 yuan, and they had no pension. Their lives basically depended on money from the original owner.
As for the original owner's brother, his monthly salary of 5,000 yuan was all spent by his sister-in-law on buying clothes and bags. The original owner's nephew was still in the nine-year compulsory education stage and basically did not spend any money.
So, in this family, the original owner was the richest. She had a car (a small electric scooter), a house (where she lives now), and savings.
Zhang Shan was just thinking about how to deal with the original owner's house when she saw the message sent by the system. It turned out that the original owner's house was in the name of the original owner's brother, and was mortgaged by the original owner's brother.
Zhang Shan...
But when she saw the content of the loan, Zhang Shan laughed. It turned out that the original owner's brother was doing business with someone outside, and that person had already planned to run away with the money. When he could not repay the loan, the house would be taken back by the bank and auctioned off.
But she was still a little unhappy. After all, this was the original owner's house, and the loan money should go into her pocket.
So, Zhang Shan tricked the person who did business with the original owner's brother and got the money back.
Seeing the string of numbers on the bank card, Zhang Shan smiled happily.
I opened another account on the Internet and transferred all the money into it.
After getting everything ready, Zhang Shan went to bed.
I woke up the next day and prepared to set off with my luggage.
When the sister-in-law saw Zhang Shan carrying a large suitcase, she originally wanted Zhang Shan to help her with her luggage, but now her plan failed.
"Shanshan, are you moving? What are you carrying so many things for?" Aunt Zhang felt sorry for her grandson who had no one to carry him, so she grabbed the big suitcase, but found that she couldn't lift it at all.
"These are all professional equipment. We have to carry so many things when we follow the filming. In the past, we always set out from the studio. Today, I am in a hurry, so I brought them home."
When she heard that it was professional equipment, Zhang's mother no longer had the urge to open it and take a look. The equipment was very expensive, and if it broke, she would have to buy a new one. Zhang Shan's money was her money, and she felt bad about it.
After much hesitation, the four finally boarded the plane and headed for Yunnan.
An hour later, we arrived at the ancient town of Lijiang, Yunnan.
Without any rest, she rented clothes and started taking pictures. The original owner's equipment was very good, and Zhang Shan gradually got the hang of it. Her photography skills were top-notch.
In the afternoon, they moved to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Standing at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the four of them did not think of climbing on foot, and went directly on the cable car.
The sunlight shines on the snow-capped mountains, reflecting dazzling light, as if covering the entire mountain range with a layer of golden gauze, which is beautiful beyond words.
"Is this Rizhao Jinshan? Shanshan, take a picture for us!"
Zhang Shan picked up the camera, took a few pictures, and then turned the camera around.
How could I miss taking photos of such beautiful scenery?
Zhang Shan took beautiful photos of herself, but her brother and sister-in-law kept changing their poses, so she didn't get a single shot. "Zhang Shan, show me, how are the photos?"
"I've uploaded it to the cloud camera. I'll pick a few more for you to post on WeChat Moments when I get back."
Zhang Shan refused, saying that if she was found to have only her photos in the camera, these people would throw her off the mountain.
When they got to the mountain, Zhang Shan took photos of her brother and sister-in-law while breathing oxygen. Due to her lack of exercise, she almost fainted.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the four of them took the cable car down the mountain, transferred to the airport, stayed in Kunming for one night, and went to Fuxian Lake the next day.
Zhang Shan took medicine in advance, slept soundly at night, and set off happily the next day.
An hour later, the four arrived at Fuxian Lake. As soon as they got off the car, they were stunned by the beautiful scenery of Fuxian Lake. The nephew clamored to go boating, so the brother and sister-in-law rented a small boat. Because they were reluctant to spend money, they only rented a boat that could only bear the weight of three people.
However, my nephew Xiaobao is already in elementary school and is still a little fat boy, weighing almost the same as the original owner.
"Sister-in-law, why don't we rent a bigger boat?"
"Just row it casually, why rent such a big house, it's a waste of money."
Along the way, my sister-in-law kept cutting down on her expenses, just to save some money to buy clothes for herself.
Zhang Shan looked at her boss with helplessness on her face.
Finally, they rented a small boat and played by the water. The nephew wanted to row to the middle of the water, so his brother and sister-in-law had no choice but to get on the boat as well.
"Shanshan, come up quickly, you can take a family photo for us on the boat."
The auntie next to her held Zhang Shan back and said, "Don't row in, it's dangerous."
"What's so dangerous about such shallow water? You just want to scare people. Ignore her and get up quickly."
The sister-in-law pulled Zhang Shan onto the boat and found that the boat was not sinking. She said smugly, "I knew that the boss was ripping off the customers. Look, isn't this boat in good condition?"
The boat was marked to carry three people, which was indeed a reservation, as each person's weight was different, but the combined weight of the four of them was definitely at the boat's capacity limit.
The boat swayed and rowed towards the center of the lake. The clear water surface immediately turned black. The nephew was scared and said, "I want to go home. I don't want to row the boat anymore..."
"Okay, okay, let's go back."
But no matter how hard they rowed, the boat would not dock, and went further and further inland.
