The Qin family's residence was also located on the outskirts of the ancient imperial city, where land was extremely valuable.
It is also a Chinese garden with red walls and green tiles, grand and magnificent. At first glance, it even has a bit of the classical garden flavor of Beihai Park.
Inside, there are pavilions, towers, bridges, and flowing water, creating an indescribably tranquil and elegant atmosphere.
Su Xixi immediately spotted the brightly colored, plump koi carp in the pond below the artificial hill, and her fishing urge kicked in. "Grandma Qin, can I fish in these?"
"Of course," Grandma Qin replied with a kind smile without the slightest hesitation.
Although each of these koi fish is worth tens or even hundreds of thousands of yuan, as long as the child is happy, the money spent on the fish is nothing.
Susie immediately took out her portable fishing rod and small stool, set up her setup, and started fishing.
Unfortunately, koi are both stupid and greedy fish, and these koi in the Qin family are the treasures of Old Madam Qin. In the past, let alone being caught by others, even if they were randomly fed bait, no one dared to catch them.
Therefore, they had no suspicion whatsoever about Susie's fishing hook.
Susie cast her fishing line and caught a fish right away.
They were having a blast fishing!
When Su Xiaowu passed by the martial arts arena in Qin Garden, he was also attracted by her gaze and even pulled Su Lei to stay and spar with him on the arena.
Su Lei, with a stern face, reminded him, "Brother, don't forget, you're here to protect Ruan Ruan!"
Su Xiaowu reached out and pulled the corners of his mouth upwards, creating an upward curve, and then said to Su Lei in a serious tone, "Lei'er, it's true that I want to protect Ruan Ruan."
But look, Grandma Qin loves Ruan Ruan so much. With Grandma Qin around, who would dare to bully our Ruan Ruan? Besides, our little Ruan Ruan is so smart. It's good enough that she doesn't bully others. If others bully her?
That person probably thinks they've lived too long!
Su Xiaowu released Su Lei's face.
With a loud "Ha!", it slammed into the wooden stake in the training ground.
Then, he reached out and touched the wooden stakes and plum blossom stakes, saying enviously, "These wooden stakes are quite fun to hit. When I get back, I'll ask the tyrant to get me one too."
Su Lei was speechless. "Brother, you practice boxing, not martial arts. What do you need these training posts for?"
Su Xiaowu was strolling around the training ground with his hands behind his back, observing everything. When he heard Su Lei's words, he waved his hand and said, "Xiao Lei, you don't understand. Whether it's practicing boxing or martial arts, it all falls under the category of martial arts. They are all interconnected."
Moreover, Chinese martial arts are profound and extensive; mastering them greatly improves flexibility and technique in boxing.
Su Lei curled his lip, too lazy to argue with Su Xiaowu anymore, since the young man was exceptionally good at sophistry in this regard anyway.
Little Ruanruan was led by Old Madam Qin to the stage in the Qin family garden.
The stage is the most primitive form of architecture in ancient times, with the lower level being the stage and the upper level being a pavilion that served as dressing rooms for theatrical actors.
After following Madam Qin into the dressing room, Xiao Ruanruan saw that all kinds of props and costumes for Kunqu Opera were readily available, and even the flute, a commonly used instrument for Kunqu Opera, was hanging on an entire wall.
Moreover, just by looking at that wall of flutes, you can tell that each one is quite valuable.
Grandma Qin stroked Xiao Ruanruan's soft hair affectionately, "Among these flutes, does Xiao Ruanruan like any of them? If you see one you like, take it, and Grandma will give it to you."
"Thank you, Grandma Qin," Little Ruanruan said with a smile. "But it's alright, Ruanruan just needs to play the flute whenever Grandma Qin wants to sing!"
She is good at musical instruments, all thanks to the amazing learning talent her parents gave her, but she herself is not particularly fond of these instruments.
These fine flutes, crafted by renowned masters, would only be wasted in her hands!
"Okay!" Old Madam Qin said, holding Xiao Ruanruan's little hand, "Grandma will sing a song this afternoon, and Xiao Ruanruan will provide the music for Grandma. Then your grandpa will be our audience."
Little Ruanruan was a little confused. Old Madam Qin kept talking about her grandfather, but they had walked through most of the garden since they entered and still hadn't seen Old Master Qin.
Just as she was about to ask, Old Madam Qin said to her, "Come on, Grandma will take you to see Grandpa."
Before even entering Grandpa Qin's room, Xiao Ruanruan could already smell a strong medicinal odor.
Following Madam Qin inside, they saw Grandpa Qin sitting in a wheelchair on the balcony, his back to them. He was wearing a white Tang suit with silver thread embroidery, and his white hair was cut into a business buzz cut, making him look clean and neat.
There were two nurses taking care of me.
Madam Qin walked over, gently bent down, and whispered in his ear, "Grandpa, I brought a lovely little boy to introduce you today. He looks just like our Bao'er."
Old Master Qin, who was dozing with his eyes closed, trembled slightly, moved his fingers, and opened his eyes with difficulty, looking at Old Madam Qin with his cloudy and confused eyes.
Madam Qin pushed his wheelchair in front of Xiao Ruanruan.
Xiao Ruanruan then noticed that Grandpa Qin was slumped over, completely limp.
Upon seeing her, Old Master Qin's lips moved incessantly, but he couldn't utter a sound. He tried to raise his hand as if to touch her face, but he couldn't manage to lift it.
Little Ruanruan hesitated for a moment, then toddled over and offered her little face to the old man.
The old man's hands and the already sagging muscles on his face trembled even more violently.
