"Xiao Xing, Xiao Yuan, hurry up! Be careful, your sister Zheng Shuang will run to the front soon. If they finish eating, we won't get any!" Sun Xue shouted from behind.

"They're here! They're here! Sister Sun Xue, we'll catch up right away! We won't let Sister Zheng Shuang finish eating all by herself!" Xiao Xing and Xiao Yuan shouted excitedly as they ran after hearing the voice.

Mingxiu strolled leisurely behind, a smile appearing on her face as she watched the people ahead. Xiaoxing and Xiaoyuan, who hadn't been in a good mood for the first couple of days after arriving, seemed to be in much better spirits these past few days.

"You two slow down, don't listen to your sister Xiaoxue's nonsense. How could I possibly finish all this food? Besides, it's all raw. I need to cook it before I can eat it." Zheng Shuang walked ahead and turned around to see the two children running fast behind her. She quickly said this, afraid that they would fall. This is a gravel road, and if they fell, they would get seriously hurt.

Upon hearing Zheng Shuang's words, the two children immediately slowed down their movements.

"You're a grown woman, why are you still playing with these kids? Be careful they fall and then blame you." Zheng Shuang glanced helplessly at Sun Xue, who was laughing happily beside her.

"No, no, Sister Zheng Shuang, we won't fall down," the two children quickly reassured Sun Xue.

Zheng Shuang rolled her eyes and ignored them. Anyway, their loving interactions made him look like the bad guy.

"This water is so cool! It's so refreshing! Is this spring water flowing down from above? It's so cold!" Mingxiu was wearing a tank top, white shorts under her short-sleeved shirt, a sun-protective jacket, a hat, and sandals. The moment she stepped into the water, she felt the icy chill.

Then, unable to resist, I put my feet in and sighed contentedly, feeling the coolness.

"Yes, this is all spring water flowing down from the mountains above, but not entirely. There's some that we don't know where the source is. But the water here is always cool. Even in the hottest weather, it's never very hot," Zheng Shuang said, looking at the water at her feet.

Mingxiu nodded, then placed the watermelon in the water and, to prevent it from floating away, surrounded it with some pebbles.

Looking around, she quickly called out, "Xiaoxing, Xiaoyuan, come help your sister pick up some stones. Let's surround the watermelon, otherwise the water will wash it away and we won't be able to eat it!"
