Chapter 185 This is the Hero's Motherland
There are many flowers, plants and trees in the park. Wherever there is shade, it is cool and the temperature feels comfortable.
The family walked and looked along the way. When they saw unfamiliar plants, the children would ask questions.
There is a large lake in the center of the park where you can take a boat tour.
At this time, there are also parents who bring their children out to play and take their children on boat rides and rowing.
There are quite a few boats floating in the middle of the lake.
"Can you row a boat?" Yu Hui asked Gu Huai while standing by the lake. She didn't know how to row a boat.
She didn't know how to row, and with so many people, they needed a big boat that could seat seven or eight people.
There are boats that can be rented on the lakeside, including small boats that can accommodate three or four people, and large boats that can accommodate seven or eight people.
"Yes." Gu Huai nodded, holding Beibei in one hand and popcorn in the other.
The popcorn is for Beibei to eat. There is no sugar in it, so she can eat some.
"I can row, too." Gu Qiuyan patted her chest and said, "Dad and I will row the boat, and you and your brothers can just sit."
It is not cheap to rent a big boat for rowing, it costs 80 cents for half an hour, and 40 cents for a small boat.
After renting a boat, Gu Huai boarded first, stood at the bow, and welcomed them on board.
Gu Qiuyan was the second one to get on the boat. As soon as she got on, she sat at the bow and wanted to row.
"Give me your hand." Gu Huai stretched out his hand to Yu Hui who was holding Beibei.
Yu Hui put her hand in his palm, and the next moment it was held tightly. She carried Beibei onto the boat with one hand, and when she stepped onto the deck with her other foot, the boat shook slightly.
She also bumped into Gu Huai's arms due to inertia, but he stood firmly, his body did not move at all, and he held her shoulders and said, "Be careful."
Gu Huai protected her, held Beibei and sat her on the boat, and then carried Gu Dong, Gu Nan, and Gu Xi onto the boat.
The whole family sat down, and Gu Huai and Gu Qiuyan, who were sitting at the bow and stern, began to row.
With a swing of the oars, the boat pushed away the waves, creating ripples on the lakeside, changing the shape of the blue sky, white clouds and trees reflected in the water.
It's cool on the water, and even if you leave the shade of the trees by the lake and go out into the sun, it won't be too hot.
The breeze caresses my face, which is quite pleasant.
Gu Qiuyan sat at the bow of the boat, rowing it one stroke at a time and singing that familiar song.
"Let's row our oars and push the boat through the waves..."
Gu Dong blinked and sang along: "The sea reflects the beautiful white tower, surrounded by green trees and red walls."
This is a song that he was taught when he first entered school, and he can sing it too.
Gu Huai sat at the stern of the boat, rowing and laughing. At this time, a clear and pleasant female voice also joined the chorus.
"The boat floated gently on the water, and a cool breeze blew towards me..."
Gu Huai looked at Yu Hui in surprise. He didn't expect her to sing so beautifully.
The eyes of Gu Qiuyan and the three Gu Dong brothers also lit up.
Although they were surprised, Gu Qiuyan and Gu Dong did not stop singing.
Gu Xixi looked at his elder brother and sister Qiuyan who were singing with his mother with envy. He also wanted to sing with his mother, but unfortunately he didn't know how.
"The fish in the water looked at us and quietly listened to our happy singing..."
The cheerful and pleasant singing attracted the people rowing around to turn their heads and look at Yu Hui and her friends on the boat.
"Ah, ah, ah..." Beibei clapped his hands and sang along with his mother.
Although he couldn't sing the lyrics or follow the tune correctly, he sang very enthusiastically.
"The boat floats gently in the water, and a cool breeze blows towards me~"
After the song was finished, Gu Qiuyan was about to speak when someone on the boat next to her clapped their hands and shouted, "Great singing!"
People in other boats also shouted, "Great singing!"
"Sister Xiaohui, you sing so beautifully. Can you sing one more song?"
After knowing Sister Xiaohui for so long, this was the first time she discovered that Sister Xiaohui sang so beautifully.
"Mom, please sing one more song." Gu Xixi said coquettishly.
Yu Hui was in a good mood and agreed to their request, "Then sing another song. Let me think about what to sing."
Gu Dong thought for a moment and said, "Sing my motherland."
He had heard this song in a movie when he was watching a movie in the staff housing complex. It was so nice that he wrote it down.
Yu Hui was searching for popular songs from this era in her mind when she heard Gu Dong remind her.
"Okay, let's sing my motherland."
She took a sip of her soda, cleared her throat, and opened it.
"A big river with wide waves, the wind blows the fragrance of rice flowers on both sides..." The loud and pleasant singing flew out from the boat.
"My home is on the shore. I'm used to hearing the boatman's call and seeing the white sails on the boat..."
While singing, Yu Hui signaled Gu Qiuyan with her eyes to sing along. The latter smiled and shook her head and waved her hands, indicating that she could not sing.
Yu Hui frowned. It would be so boring for her to sing alone.
Just as I was thinking about it, a deep and magnetic baritone voice came from behind.
"The girl is like a flower, and the boy has a broad mind..."
When Yu Hui turned her head, she saw Gu Huai singing with his mouth open. When he saw her looking at him, he smiled a little embarrassedly.
“…This is my beautiful motherland, where I grew up.”
"In this vast land, there are beautiful scenery everywhere."
The chorus of soprano and baritone was in perfect harmony and the singing was so majestic.
Gu Dong, Gu Nan and Gu Xi all listened with joy, clapping their hands to keep the rhythm.
The people on other boats could no longer sit still and joined the chorus.
"This is the heroic motherland, where I grew up."
"In this ancient land, the power of youth is everywhere."
Everyone sang passionately, the singing floated over the park, and the breeze carried the singing to even farther places.
People on the shore also stopped to listen and looked at the boats on the lake, thinking that some activity was going on.
Those who can sing can't help but hum along.
Lin Siyu, who has no money, and Lu Tianyou, who has little money, can only go to the park for a date.
Before I even reached the lake, I heard a passionate chorus.
"There's someone singing by the lake. Let's go and take a look."
Lu Tianyou was almost tired of visiting this park. He had been there eight or nine times since he returned home.
It would be boring to just wander around like this, but when I heard someone singing in a chorus, I thought it was interesting, so I took Lin Siyu's hand and hurried over.
"When friends come, there's good wine. When jackals come, there's a hunting rifle to greet them."
When I got to the lake, I saw that it was people rowing boats on the lake, singing spontaneously.
One of the high-pitched and clear female voices stood out particularly in the chorus.
"Siyu, listen carefully, there is a female voice in the chorus, and she sings very beautifully." Lu Tianyou said to Lin Siyu while listening carefully.
The latter's expression changed slightly, and he was not happy to hear him say that other women had beautiful singing voices.
"I didn't hear it."
Lu Tianyou didn't notice her unhappiness, "Listen carefully, her singing voice is quite outstanding."
"I can't hear it. If you want to hear it, listen for yourself." Lin Siyu said unhappily.
