After they got on the bus, what was different from when they came here was that the children were full of curiosity and interest in the military parade and were quite excited.
On the way back, the three children were uncharacteristically silent and quiet.
Could it be that the shocking scenes they had seen before seemed to have made them fall into deep thought? This made Su Nuan feel a little puzzled.
She stared at the children for a long moment, trying to read their suddenly dark expressions, but she couldn't.
She first asked Xiao Mantou:
"Little Mantou, why aren't you talking? Are you tired?"
Little Mantou raised his head, his eyes revealing a maturity beyond his age:
"No, I'm thinking."
A trace of worry welled up in Su Nuan's heart. She turned her head and looked at Tuan Tuan, who was usually the most lively, only to see that he was also lowering his head, as if thinking about something.
"Tuantuan, what's wrong with you again?" she asked softly.
Tuantuan didn't answer immediately, but just shook his head slightly.
Su Nuan's eyes fell on her well-behaved daughter. With a last glimmer of hope, she asked softly:
"Yuanyuan, what about you?"
Yuanyuan raised her head, a determined light flashing in her eyes: "Mom, I'm thinking about the future."
Su Nuan was at a loss for words when she heard her daughter's answer. A military parade had actually caused her three children to reflect so deeply.
She felt both surprised and relieved, and at the same time realized that the children had grown up without her noticing and began to have their own understanding and ideas about the world.
She hopes that they can maintain this ability to think as they grow, bravely pursue their dreams, and create a bright future of their own.
The way back was very quiet. When the car stopped in front of Gu's house, Su Nuan got out of the car with the children. After thanking the driver who brought them back, they walked into the house.
When they returned home, it was lunchtime. Su Nuan invited the three children to eat. The old lady stayed at home because she was old, and no one else was at home.
Su Nuan and the others returned home and happened to be having dinner with the old lady. At the dinner table, the old lady saw that the three children were not as lively as usual. She picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat for each of the children.
Then he asked with a smile.
"Children, why are you so quiet today?"
The three children didn't answer and continued to eat, so Su Nuan had to answer.
"Grandma, don't worry about them. They're just like that after the parade. They're probably thinking about life. It will be fine after a few days when they understand."
The old lady was also confused by Su Nuan's explanation, but seeing that the children really didn't want to say anything more, she had no choice but to stop asking.
After dinner, the three children greeted the old lady and Su Nuan obediently, and then slipped back to their rooms like three little squirrels.
Su Nuan's heart was filled with relief. She tiptoed to the door of the children's room and took a sneak peek.
She saw them sitting at the desk, studying attentively, and their serious look made her laugh.
She wanted to go in and take a look, but was afraid of disturbing them, so she quietly retreated to her room.
In the afternoon, Su Nuan took a sweet nap. After waking up, she accompanied the old lady for a stroll in the courtyard.
The sunshine shines on them, bringing warmth and comfort. Whenever Su Nuan meets the old lady's familiar neighbors, she always greets them with a smile and chats with them, her words full of love for life.
In the evening, family members returned one after another, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was very lively. Everyone was talking enthusiastically about the National Day military parade.
Everyone's tone was filled with pride and honor, as if they had personally experienced that grand celebration.
They recalled the spectacular scenes at the parade, shared their feelings, and their faces were filled with love for the motherland.
Two days later, she finally saw Gu Chengfeng returning to the compound with his bag on his back. Su Nuan had been expecting him to come back in the next two days, so she was in no hurry to return to Shanghai. She only wanted to wait for him.
When the three children saw Gu Chengfeng coming back, they cast aside the gloomy mood of the previous two days and chattered around Gu Chengfeng like happy little birds.
There was a glint of curiosity in their eyes, and they asked questions about the troops.
Su Nuan looked at Yuanyuan. This girl who was supposed to be quiet and well-behaved was actually very interested in the army. This made her original hope of cultivating a lady of socialite begin to waver. She didn't know whether this hope would be shattered.
Perhaps, Yuanyuan will grow up to be a strong and independent rose.
Gu Chengfeng was filled with joy when he saw the children were so curious about the army.
He happily interacted with the children and passed on his love and enthusiasm for the troops to them.
After all, the army is the career he has fought for all his life. He hopes that his children will be interested in the army, and it would be a wonderful thing if they could inherit his father's career in the future.
However, his idea was so beautiful that he completely ignored Su Nuan's expression. However, Su Nuan was open-minded and thought that the children were still too young and the future was full of infinite possibilities.
Perhaps, the shock brought by the current military parade will shake the direction of their future development.
But in the future, when they are exposed to more knowledge, learn more things, and when they grow up and have their own independent thinking ability, there may be new changes.
After all, everyone may have dreamed of becoming a scientist, police officer, soldier, or other glamorous careers in their childhood. However, it is not uncommon for many people to choose completely different career paths when they grow up.
Su Nuan thought about this and gradually calmed down. She no longer felt anxious. Even if all three children chose to join the army in the future, she would have no choice but to support them because she knew that they had their own paths to take in life.
Su Nuan couldn't help feeling jealous when she saw the harmonious scene of the four men loving each other. She could only turn a blind eye and let the four men get along well.
The family of five stayed in Beijing for several days because of the National Day, and then returned to Shanghai on their own private plane.
After returning to Shanghai, the three children's enthusiasm for learning remained high. They completed their learning tasks every day and got up every morning to do morning exercises with Gu Chengfeng.
So, after the children persisted for two months, Su Nuan decided to have a frank talk with them.
However, before talking to the children, she first talked to the two teachers of the three children for a long time.
From the teachers, she learned about the changes in the children's studies and mentality since they returned from Beijing.
