With the arrival of winter's chill and the end of final exams, winter break has quietly arrived. For most students, the arrival of vacation is always exciting and anticipated, even for top students like He Ruizhe.
He Ruizhe has his own plans and expectations for the winter vacation. He knows it's a great opportunity to relax, enrich himself, and spend quality time with his family.
Seeing their son's anticipation for the holiday, Gu Yunxi and He Siyan discussed holiday plans with him: "Ruize, winter vacation is about to begin. What are your plans? Do you want to attend some extracurricular classes, or go on a trip with your family?"
He Ruizhe thought for a moment, then said, "Mom and Dad, I want to finish my holiday homework first, and then I want to participate in the school's winter sports camp to get some exercise. Also, I want to do some fun activities with my younger siblings, like cooking together or making some handicrafts."
Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao also offered their suggestions: "Ruize, you could consider participating in some cultural activities with your younger siblings, such as going to museums or watching children's plays. This can broaden your knowledge and is also very interesting."
Han Yulan smiled and said, "Ruize, your great-grandmother wants to play a few more games of chess with you during the winter vacation. Would you like that?"
He Ruizhe happily accepted his family's suggestion: "Of course I'm willing, Great-Grandma. I also hope to spend a fulfilling and meaningful holiday with my family."
Thus, He Ruizhe's winter vacation began in an orderly fashion. He managed his time well, completed his holiday homework, participated in the school's sports camp, and improved his physical fitness. He also took cooking classes with his younger siblings, learning to make simple dishes and pastries, which not only strengthened his relationship with his family but also improved his practical skills.
During the winter break, He Ruizhe also participated in some community charity events, helping those in need and experiencing the joy of helping others. His actions earned him unanimous praise from his family.
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan were very pleased to see their son’s positive performance during the holiday: “Ruize, you are a well-rounded child. We are proud of you.”
Xia Liang and Gu Yanxiao were also happy about He Ruizhe's growth: "Ruize, you have arranged your holiday life in a very meaningful way. We are happy to see that you have made progress in all aspects."
Han Yulan looked at He Ruizhe with affection: "Ruize, your growth makes us very happy. Your kindness and hard work are the future of our Gu family."
He Ruizhe's winter vacation not only allowed him to relax and feel fulfilled, but also enriched his family life. For He Ruizhe, this vacation was a valuable growth experience, allowing him to gain a deeper understanding of the importance of learning, family, and social responsibility.
That day, Gu Yunxi and He Siyan returned to Xia Liang's home with their three children. Xia Liang was filled with anticipation and joy upon learning of her daughter's impending arrival. She had the family's housekeeper prepare a sumptuous meal in advance, ensuring they could enjoy a delicious lunch as soon as they arrived.
When Gu Yunxi's family arrived, Xia Liang was already waiting for them at the door, her face beaming with a warm smile: "Yunxi, Siyan, my precious grandchildren, welcome home!"
When He Ruizhe and his twin siblings saw Xia Liang, they immediately ran over excitedly and rushed to greet her, saying, "Grandma, we missed you so much!"
Xia Liang knelt down and hugged them one by one, saying lovingly, "Grandma missed you all too. Come inside, the food is ready."
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan also stepped forward to hug Xia Liang and said gratefully, "Mom, thank you for preparing so much delicious food. The children were very excited on the way to Grandma's house."
Xia Liang responded with a smile: "When a family is reunited, they should enjoy the delicious food and happy moments."
Upon entering the house, Gu Yunxi's family was drawn to the lunch that Xia Liang had meticulously prepared. The table was laden with a variety of dishes, each one a feast for the eyes and the palate, making their mouths water.
Looking at the table full of dishes, He Ruizhe couldn't help but exclaim, "Grandma, these are all our favorite dishes. You are so thoughtful!"
The twins clapped their hands happily, saying, "Grandma, we love the food here!"
Xia Liang took the children's hands and led them to sit around the dining table: "Come on, everyone, sit down and let's eat and chat."
During lunch, the family sat together, enjoying the food and sharing their recent news and interesting stories. Xia Liang inquired about the children's studies and lives, while Gu Yunxi and He Siyan shared their work progress.
He Ruizhe also reported his winter vacation plans to Xia Liang: "Grandma, I participated in the school's winter sports camp during the winter vacation, and I also learned to cook with my younger siblings. It was a very fulfilling time."
Xia Liang was very pleased to hear this: "Ruize, you are such a thoughtful child. Seeing how sensible you are, Grandma is very relieved."
After lunch, Xia Liang suggested that the whole family relax in the living room and enjoy the leisurely afternoon. The children played on the carpet, while the adults sat and chatted, and the whole family was immersed in a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
This family reunion at her maternal grandparents' home not only brought warmth to Gu Yunxi's family, but also allowed Xia Liang to enjoy the joy of reuniting with her daughter and grandchildren. For He Ruizhe and his younger siblings, spending such a pleasant holiday at their maternal grandparents' home was one of their most precious memories.
That evening, the Gu family gathered around the television in the living room, enjoying a warm family time. He Ruizhe snuggled up to Xia Liang and asked curiously, "Grandma, are we going on a road trip again this year?"
Hearing her grandson's question, Xia Liang felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She hugged He Ruizhe and gently replied, "If my eldest grandson wants to go, then we'll go. How about we spend the Spring Festival in Hainan Province this year? The climate there is warm, the scenery is beautiful, and we can relax there."
He Ruizhe's eyes immediately lit up: "That's great, Grandma! I've heard that there are many fun places in Hainan Province, and I've always wanted to go and see them."
Gu Yunxi and He Siyan thought it was a good idea when they heard the suggestion: "Mom, going to Hainan Province for the New Year sounds great. The children can experience different customs and traditions, and we can also enjoy our holiday."
Xia Liang smiled and nodded: "Then it's settled. We'll go to Hainan Province this year. I'll make preparations in advance and arrange the itinerary and accommodation."
He Ruizhe excitedly turned to his younger siblings: "Little brother and sister, we're going to Hainan Province for the New Year! Are you excited?"
Although the twins didn't quite understand the specific meaning of Hainan Province, seeing their older brother so excited, they clapped their hands happily and said, "We're so happy! We're going on a trip with our brother!"
Gu Yanxiao also joined the discussion: "Qiong Province is a good choice. We can go for a walk on the beach, enjoy the warm sunshine, and also taste the local cuisine."
Xia Liang continued, "Yes, we can visit some cultural relics and go to the tropical botanical garden to broaden the children's horizons."
He Ruizhe had already begun planning what he wanted to do in Hainan Province: "Grandma, when we go to Hainan Province, I want to collect seashells on the beach and also see the coconut trees there."
Xia Liang looked at He Ruizhe with affection: "Of course, my eldest grandson. We can also take photos together to commemorate this wonderful trip."
This decision made the Gu family atmosphere even warmer and more expectant. For Gu Yunxi and He Siyan, it was a great opportunity to spend the holiday with their family and strengthen their bonds. For Xia Liang, being able to lead her grandchildren to experience different lifestyles was her greatest joy as an elder.
As the holiday approached, Xia Liang began preparing the supplies and itinerary for her road trip. The Gu family was full of anticipation for their trip to Hainan Province, knowing it would be an unforgettable family trip, allowing them to enjoy the beautiful natural scenery and strengthen the bonds between family members. For He Ruizhe, this trip would be a new adventure, making his winter vacation even more colorful.
