The whole family was very happy about this winter vacation trip.
Beijing is really big.
The flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square is truly awe-inspiring.
The Forbidden City is truly magnificent and awe-inspiring.
The day Lin Anshu and her group arrived at the Forbidden City, it happened to be snowing in Beijing.
The snow-covered buildings of the Forbidden City add to its solemn grandeur.
At Lin Anshu's suggestion, the whole family rented winter versions of Hanfu and even got their makeup and styling done. They went to the Forbidden City to take photos as souvenirs.
Beneath their beautiful and elegant Hanfu, they wore thick thermal underwear.
After choosing their Hanfu, they also selected suitable capes to wear on top.
That cloak was incredibly warm, like a small blanket.
Then, put a snow-white fox fur collar around your neck.
She wore cotton boots over her cotton socks.
After the makeup and styling were completed, Lin Anshu and her family started boasting.
"My goodness, Grandma, you look like the ancestor of a great family from ancient times!"
"And my mother, she looks like the matriarch of the family."
"My sister is a typical young lady from ancient times. She is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and has a refined and elegant appearance."
"And what about me?" Mr. Lin looked at Lin Anshu expectantly.
“Dad, you’re like… a refined and scholarly examinee, the kind who could easily become the top scholar.”
"Sis, what about me? What about me?"
"You? A spoiled brat."
"How am I a spoiled brat? I should be the most knowledgeable, the most handsome, and the most likely to become the top scholar in the entire capital. I am the dream of every girl in the capital!" Lin Anyu said narcissistically.
"Oh, hehe..." Lin Anshu chuckled twice.
"Second sister, what do you mean by this? Are you looking down on me?"
"What, am I not handsome enough, my little brother?"
Looking at the pose Lin Anyu struck, Lin Anshu spoke in a reassuring tone.
"So handsome, so handsome, you're the most handsome."
"Hmm, I'm the most handsome man in the entire capital."
Lin Anyu had just finished being narcissistic when his father tapped him on the shoulder with a fan.
Seeing everyone enjoying themselves so much, Grandma Lin smiled even more broadly.
Since they were out having fun anyway, Lin Anshu and her friends not only changed into Hanfu (traditional Han clothing), but also specially hired a photographer to take pictures of them.
In the Forbidden City, where you can take perfect photos anywhere, the photographer took a lot of pictures of the whole family.
Of course, taking group photos was unavoidable.
Various angles and poses for solo photos are also a must.
They spent an entire day in the Forbidden City just to take photos.
In the following days, they visited the Summer Palace, the Temple of Heaven, and the Old Summer Palace.
After they arrived in Sanya by plane and checked into the villa that Lin Anshu had booked in advance, the photographer she had found in Beijing finally sent them the edited photos.
The beautiful scenery, the photographer's superb shooting skills, the family's good-looking appearance, and the post-production retouching all contributed to the effect.
Each of these finished photos is more beautiful than the last.
Lin Anshu liked every single one of them.
Lin's mother and grandmother, who had previously felt it was a bit of a waste, were overjoyed after seeing the photos.
Compared to Beijing, Sanya is really warm.
The whole family didn't have time to pack their luggage. They found a place to sit down and started selecting photos to post on WeChat Moments.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin even changed their WeChat profile pictures to photos of themselves wearing Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) taken at the Forbidden City.
My WeChat Moments feed was flooded with posts from their family.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin each posted three times on their WeChat Moments.
Each post on WeChat Moments contained nine pictures with different captions.
In addition, there are Lin Anshu and Lin Anqin's, and Lin Anyu's.
If someone who has added their whole family on WeChat were browsing their Moments right now, they would definitely be overwhelmed by all the posts.
Of course, there is also a possibility.
Some people find them annoying and showy, so they simply block them.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin didn't care about that possibility.
It's your own WeChat Moments; you can post whatever you want.
snort.
Poor Grandma Lin didn't have a cell phone, so she could only watch them move longingly.
"Grandma, when we get back, I'll print all these photos out and put them in an album, so you can look at them whenever you want."
"Okay, sure." Grandma Lin nodded, pleased.
In the household registration book, the education section for Grandma Lin states that she is semi-illiterate.
Of course, in their time, there weren't many people who could go to school.
Grandma Lin is literate and can write her own name. She has no problem with daily accounting and such.
But she wasn't used to these modern electronic products.
She doesn't know how to use a mobile phone or a computer.
In her daily life, she enjoys watching TV and listening to Qinqiang and Peking Opera.
At this point, Lin Anshu was thinking that she basically stayed at home every day anyway.
Perhaps we can consider buying Grandma Lin a cell phone or tablet when we get back.
Whenever he had free time, he would teach Grandma Lin how to surf the internet.
After resting in the villa for half a day, the family went out to see the sea.
The whole family really loves the sea.
Because they don't live by the sea, they all have a kind of inexplicable joy for the ocean.
With the weather just right and the temperature just right, walking, running, and playing in the sand on the beach was truly a delightful experience.
In the following days, they also took the time to go to the local market to buy seafood and vegetables, and cooked a seafood feast for themselves in the villa.
