"Are the children asleep?"
"I'm asleep. I walked all day today and fell asleep as soon as I touched the pillow."
As he spoke, Wei Jianguo pulled her into his arms, "Thank you, my wife."
Thank you for teaching my children so well. I haven't seen my father for half a year, but I don't feel strange at all. In the children's eyes, he saw dependence, admiration and love.
Song Shuqian found a comfortable position in his arms, "They are our children, and you are their father.
Husband, when I saw how familiar you were with those weapons today, I just wanted to hug you. You are the best. "
Song Shuqian prepared a lot of compliments to express her admiration for today, but she didn't have the chance to say them.
The man was particularly enthusiastic today.
It was so hot that the sheets were useless. Fortunately, they were in the habit of changing their bedding when they went out, and fortunately, she had several identical sheets in her magic gourd.
It's so embarrassing.
Song Shuqian's face turned red with shame. They were an old couple with two children, yet they could lose control to such an extent.
The next day, she woke up feeling sore waist and weak legs.
He silently took out the spiritual liquid from the magic gourd, drank a drop, and then he felt that he could move normally.
An An and Le Le have finished breakfast with their father and returned.
"Mom, you're awake."
"Mom, we brought you some delicious food."
"Mom, don't worry. Dad asked Aunt Tiantian and the others to go out and play first. We are going to the Forbidden City today. There is no rush."
Song Shuqian stood up and said, "Didn't we say we were going to climb the Great Wall today?"
"Dad said that we walked too much these past two days and we are too tired. Let's take a break today and go to the Forbidden City. We will come back in the evening and rest early."
"Okay, An An Le Le, let's go to a history museum, okay? Mom wants to go and take a look."
"Okay, we'll stay with mom."
"Thank you, my kids. Mommy's going to wash up first, and you guys go find daddy."
When Song Shuxi came out, Wei Jianguo was collecting clothes. Their room was a family room, and there was a clothesline next to the living room window, where they could hang the washed clothes every day.
The summer in Beijing is very hot. Clothes washed at night are dry in the morning.
"What's good to eat?"
"Pea yellow and soy milk fried dough sticks. Come and eat quickly, it's still hot."
Hearing Wei Jianguo's voice, Song Shuqian turned around and glared at him. It was all because of him that she got up late. I don’t know how Tiantian will make fun of her.
Tiantian would not laugh at her. Wei Jianguo was not the only one who was moved yesterday.
Tiantian was also exhausted last night. Even though she has a strong physique, she was still shaking with exhaustion after climbing the Great Wall today.
When Song Shuqian entered the Forbidden City, she deliberately chose the Meridian Gate. She and Wei Jianguo sighed, "Who would have thought that one day, I could also go through this gate."
"What's wrong with this door?"
"Wumen is the emperor's exclusive gate. The empress can pass through it once when she gets married, and the top three candidates can pass through it once after the palace examination. If you pass through it incorrectly, you will be beheaded."
Once you come here, it's like Song Shuxi's home turf. She can tell you all kinds of historical allusions and even talk about simple buildings.
Song Shuqian told them, "The construction of the Forbidden City is very symmetrical. We came in through the Meridian Gate, and we will pass by the Gate of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the Hall of Central Harmony, the Hall of Preserving Harmony, the Gate of Heavenly Purity, the Palace of Heavenly Purity, the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, and all the way to the Gate of Divine Prowess. The buildings along this central axis are the core area of the Forbidden City. They are all used exclusively by the royal family."
An An is not interested in the emperor or anything like that, he just likes the architecture here.
"Mom, the house here is different from the ones we have seen."
An An wanted to see the roof clearly, so she pulled Wei Jianguo and said, "Daddy, hold me, I can't see."
"There are small animals on top of Mom's house."
"That's not a little animal, it's a roof beast. If you like this, we have to look up a book together, or find a teacher. Mom only knows the basics."
An An looked at his father.
Wei Jianguo helped him sit down, "Dad doesn't really understand it either."
Song Shuqian couldn't bear to see her son depressed, "Architecture is also a very romantic subject. An An likes it, so we should pay more attention to it. The Forbidden City is a Chinese-style building. These houses are built of wood, using the traditional mortise and tenon structure of our ancestors.
Mom and Dad also went to Harbin, where the architecture is very Western and there are many churches. You study hard first, and when you grow up, we will send you to university to study architecture. "
An An doesn’t know what architecture is yet, he just thinks it’s beautiful.
The Forbidden City is a priceless treasure in the eyes of those who understand it, but it is just a house in the eyes of those who don’t.
This is the case with Wei Jianguo and his two children.
The hot weather quickly dampened their desire to continue shopping. Such a big palace, but there is not a single tree to provide shade.
The three of them looked at Song Shuxi pitifully, "We want to find a place to rest."
Song Shuqian felt sorry for them, "Let's go, let's go to the History Museum. It's not sunny there, you have to accompany me seriously."
"no problem."
"Mom, we promise."
A family of four went to the History Museum.
This is Song Shuxi’s happy hometown. When she came here for the first time, she tried to find any trace of the Great Yong Dynasty here, but no, the Great Yong Dynasty seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, without any trace.
At first Song Shuxi didn't understand, but now she has accepted it calmly.
She likes this place, simply because she likes the stories behind the cultural relics. It's a pity that there is no tour guide here, and she doesn't understand many things, so she can only take a quick look.
What a pity.
She could only remember the appearance of the cultural relics and take a closer look at any books introducing them in the future.
While eating shabu-shabu at Dong Lai Shun, An An suddenly announced, "Mom, I want to study architecture and build a big house for you."
"Thank you, An'an. Mom is very happy. Do you want to learn painting from mom? I don't understand architecture, but I can teach you to paint first."
Although An An didn't know the relationship between architecture and painting, she agreed happily.
Song Shuxi was happy because she had persuaded her son to learn painting from her.
After finishing the business, the two kids started to eat very seriously.
Wow, the lamb rolled in sesame sauce is so delicious. The frozen tofu inside is delicious.
An An Le Le doesn't even raise his head while eating.
Only Wei Jianguo still remembered to help his wife pick up the meat. An An took one chopstick and his mother took one chopstick, Lele took one chopstick and his mother took one chopstick.
Two adults and two 3-year-old children ate 12 plates of lamb, not including other dishes, which was scary.
Song Shuqian has already started thinking, "An An Le Le, when you are older, start learning to cook. When you are in your teens, our kitchen will be handed over to you. You eat too much, and mom feels tired from cooking so much."
Wei Jianguo particularly agreed. He had long felt sorry for his wife cooking. Now that the children were older, they could go to the canteen to get meals. "I will start teaching them how to cook when I return, and let them do it when I am not around."
The two children didn't understand anything yet, but their parents arranged everything for them.
