Chapter 245 The nursery and kindergarten are going much better!
As the sun sets, the sky is filled with rosy clouds, and the rustling of the wind through the bamboo forest is mixed with the voices of the flower fairies:
"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Manmanli!"
"You've all worked hard. The child is fine, just hungry. I'm out of food here, so please take him home for a meal."
After seeing off the last couple of parents who came to pick up their children, Manmanli began packing her belongings, preparing to go home after get off work.
She had gotten used to the days when a group of children would be escorted to the medical room by the guards every few days. Sometimes the children were quiet, but most of the time they were quite noisy; sometimes a child would be injured, but most of the time the children were lively and energetic, like a house full of chattering little birds. Manmanli no longer felt that her daughter talked too much. After all, there was only one Cecilia, and only one mouth to speak!
Manmanli thought she should prepare more vegetable slices and dried fruit for the medical room tomorrow, as these kinds of foods can be stored for a longer time. Perhaps she could cook a pot of sweet medicinal soup in the medical room? She couldn't let the children go hungry again next time. It's just that the medical room isn't very close to the irrigation ditch, and fetching water back and forth would take some time...
However, before Manmanli could even start preparing the herbal medicine, a nursery and kindergarten were built next to the medical room, and after that, no more reckless children were caught by the guards and sent there.
The nursery and kindergarten are two rather unique and beautiful little bamboo buildings.
Both bamboo houses are built tall and large, with layers upon layers, covering a large area. The winding corridors made of finely woven snow-white bamboo leaves make the two bamboo houses look like two small mazes from a distance.
The small houses connected by the long corridor are also built with giant bamboo, but the pointed roofs are covered with bright green reed leaves, making the bright green roofs stand out in the snow-white giant bamboo forest.
Manmanli soon discovered that the two bamboo houses seemed to have indeed been turned into a maze—
The shorter bamboo house is probably about five stories high, while the taller one is about eight stories high. The reason this estimate is only rough is because the number of stories in these bamboo houses is not fixed. Many bamboo houses are even suspended in the air. What looked like a bamboo house on the third floor one day may appear to be the fifth floor the next day.
Even just looking at it, Manmanli found it novel and interesting, let alone the young flower fairies who were called in.
The shorter bamboo houses are nurseries, where little flower fairies, guided by their teachers, will appear in the corridors, looking around with curious eyes. They are all under five years old and are relatively quiet.
The taller bamboo building was the kindergarten. The young flower fairies, who were five years old but not yet fifteen, were full of curiosity about themselves and the world. They gathered in groups of three or five and explored the maze of bamboo buildings with great enthusiasm, blowing back and forth like the wind through the forest. Every now and then, screams and cheers would erupt, making it quite lively. Sometimes, even from a distance, Manmanli could hear the teachers shouting loudly.
Cecily was not even five years old when she went to daycare. It has to be said that after Cecily went to daycare, Manmanli's life became much more comfortable than before!
After having breakfast at home early in the morning, I drop Cecilia off at the little bamboo house on my way to work. After that, I can work with peace of mind, without worrying about the little one running around outside and getting hurt, or being anxious about her suddenly becoming curious and thinking that everything she sees is food and trying to put it in her mouth.
Despite the double protection of the magical cat and the guards, Manmanli still couldn't feel at ease. After all, there were many things the magical cat didn't understand, and the guards might not be able to patrol in time. Only when Manmanli returned home at noon and saw the children sitting obediently with Feifeisi, waiting for lunch, could she finally feel at ease.
Now that it's noon, Manmanli can prepare lunch for herself and Feifeisi only. Xixili will eat lunch at the nursery. Feifeisi, worried, took some time to go to the nursery to check on her and came back to tell her that the little flower fairies eat a much wider variety of dishes than they do.
When it's time to get off work, she can conveniently pick up Cecily from the daycare and go home together. On the way, she can hear Cecily excitedly sharing what new games she played, what new songs she learned, and what delicious food she ate. Knowing that Fifis should already be home and preparing dinner, Manman feels that happiness must be overflowing from her eyes and brows.
She thought to herself, "How wonderful! Sissis, now you in the Kingdom of God can see the world, right? Cecily is doing well, and so am I. I even have a new daughter. So come to my dream with a smile. I miss you a little."
Life flows forward like water rippling in a canal, neither fast nor slow.
Shu Xin watched as the flower fairies chatted and laughed as they flew to the irrigation ditch, landed, scooped water with wooden buckets, and then flew away together.
The rosy glow of the sunset, which had been gently rippling in the canal, was now being collected along with the clear water into the wooden buckets carried by the flower fairies. The little sprites flying in the air seemed to be holding the warm sunset in their hands.
The scene was truly fairytale-like and beautiful. Shu Xin watched as the glittering flower fairies flew into the giant dragon bamboo forest not far away, their figures gradually disappearing from sight. She turned her gaze back to the canal below.
...Indeed, the public water supply facilities need to be upgraded, Shu Xin thought to herself, not at all like a fairy tale.
These irrigation ditches were dug when the bamboo houses were first built. One after another, the ditches crisscrossed the giant bamboo forest, making it convenient for the flower fairies living there to fetch water. However, as the residential area slowly expanded, the flower fairies who moved in later lived further and further away from the old irrigation ditches, and naturally, fetching water became less convenient.
Shu Xin couldn't think of any other way besides digging more irrigation ditches for the time being. This method was certainly feasible, but thinking of the huge venomous snake that had crawled out of the grass by the water, Shu Xin felt that she could think of other ways.
Even though Shu Xin knew in her heart that these snakes would not attack the flower fairies on their own initiative, she still felt that she should avoid contact with the giant snakes as much as possible.
As usual, she inquired with the Tree of Life and learned that the human race had already built a relatively complete water supply and drainage system, and the alchemical pipes were quite durable. With the level of the alchemy workshops in the Sinful Lands, it wouldn't be a problem to forge water pipes suitable for the Sinful Lands, but Shu Xin felt that this wasn't quite suitable for the Sinful Lands—
The flower fairies fly around in the air, unlike humans who only walk and live on the ground. The bamboo houses in the Giant Dragon Bamboo can be up to a hundred stories high. Without magic, the water supply problem would be unimaginable!
We might as well just use magic!
However, before Shu Xin could devise a more suitable magical water supply solution, new intelligence was sent to the Land of Sin.
