There aren't many houses around the villa, and Yu Huan's parents are worried that she won't have any playmates.
In fact, that was a useless worry. Yu Huan could have fun with anyone.
When they didn't come, she would make trouble for the old lady. When it rained and she couldn't go out, she would lie on the old lady's lap and beg her grandmother to read her storybooks.
On a drowsy rainy day, the old lady found her glasses and put them on, then opened a book and slowly read to her.
She also learned to play chess from her grandmother, but she didn't learn how to play it clearly. Until now, she only knows that you move a piece and I move a piece.
Aunt Chen and Aunt Liu couldn't escape either.
When she was teething, her family didn't allow her to eat too much sweets. She agreed on the surface, but secretly went into Aunt Chen's room to act like a spoiled brat.
Or, while Aunt Liu was cooking, he would walk in with his hands behind his back and his shoes tapping off. One second he would have a stern face like a serious little leader, and the next second he would hug Aunt Liu's legs and beg.
Her mother gave her a camera, and she was so curious about it that the first thing she did every day when she woke up was to hang the camera around her neck. She would know it was her running down the stairs when she heard the sound of "thump thump thump".
Grandma eating breakfast, Aunt Chen looking up at the sky, and Aunt Liu bending down to pick up something all appeared in her camera film.
Her poses for taking photos were also very unexpected. She would stand on the stairs or squat on the ground. Sometimes I could only hear the sound of the shutter, but couldn't see anyone. Only after looking carefully did I find that she was standing outside the window.
At that time, everyone in the villa was on edge because of her noise. Even if they didn't see her, they always felt that she would come out from some corner in the next second, hold up the camera and take pictures seriously, and rush into people's arms like a little cannonball to seek credit.
At night, she lay on the chair, shaking it until it creaked, and checked the results of the day one by one.
That chair was given as a gift when the furniture was replaced. It was a round chair without a backrest. It did not match the Chinese retro furniture in the villa and had no use for it, so it became Yu Huan's exclusive use.
When she was a child, she would just lie on the chair with her whole body pressed down and watch TV.
As she grew taller, the chair was no longer useful for watching TV, so it was moved to the window. When it rained, it became a good helper for her to observe the world outside the window.
The quality of the gift chair was surprisingly good. Later, the custom-made sofas in the villa were replaced with new ones, and the chair only creaked when shaken.

My mother taught me how to use a camera. She likes photography and she always takes pictures of Yu Huan with her camera every time she comes.
The photos were developed, framed, and hung on the wall of the villa.
Yu Huan felt it was unfair that she was the only one in the photo, so they took a family photo while everyone was around to satisfy her.
No one could understand how she could be so boisterous, as if she had endless energy.
There was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, and I knew it was her running out.
She is very busy.
When I woke up in the morning, I went to check if the fish I raised were still spitting bubbles, then I went into the kitchen to ask Aunt Liu for something to eat, then I carefully helped Aunt Chen arrange the flowers so well that it was unbearable to look at, and then I went to check if the old lady had taken her medicine on time.
Not content with just watching the old lady take the medicine, he searched the old lady's room like a police officer to see if there was any candy.
The old lady also loves sweets, but her health is not good and the doctor does not recommend her to eat too much sweets. Aunt Chen also supervises her, so the old lady often eats them secretly.
Occasionally, he would take out a piece of candy hidden by the old lady from a corner, frown his little face, criticize the old lady bitterly along with Aunt Chen, and then turn around and throw the candy into his own mouth when Aunt Chen wasn't paying attention.

The attic was originally an unused storage space for miscellaneous items, but when Yu Huan discovered it, it became her secret base. Children always want to occupy something and claim it as their own.
The attic, which had not been used before, was cleaned by the aunts. When Yu Huan's father came, some old furniture was moved in at Yu Huan's request.
That place became Yu Huan's second nest, where she kept her toys, camera, snacks, comic books...all kinds of treasures.
Whenever you can't find her, just go to the attic and look for her.
This place is close to the mountains and nature, so you can always see some wild squirrels, rabbits and other small animals.
Yu Huan always wanted to go up the mountain to take a look, but her family members stopped her. Finally, her father took her with him when he came back.
Her father took her to learn about various plants and taught her to identify mushrooms. They saw many birds in the mountains and found many wild fruits, such as wild mulberries, wild grapes, and nightshade, some of which were delicious and some were not.
When they returned home from the mountain, both of them were out of breath and dirty, but no one noticed anything.
Yu Huan brought back a bunch of red wolfberries in his clothes pocket and showed them to the grandmothers and aunts like a treasure, saying that he could make tea for them after drying them.
Yu Huan stole grandma's candy again. She was sulking and said that she had black wolfberries and looked down on the ordinary red ones.
My father agreed, saying that it was wild, natural and pollution-free, and would be more effective...
Yu Huan's carefree days ended when she started school. She had to move with her parents to a big house in the city and take a car to school every day.
School was also very good. Yu Huan had many friends and met many teachers. However, no matter what he did, he was confined to the square space. There was no vast world that Yu Huan had seen in his childhood.
She still likes her grandmother's villa. Every time she has a holiday, she can't wait to fly back like a white dove that knows the way.
The old lady said, "Why do you always come here? Don't you feel tired from the journey?" while smiling, the wrinkles on her face looked like flowers.
The two aunts were happy that she came.
They watched her grow up, from when she was a child who couldn't speak and was wrapped in a quilt and spit up bubbles of milk, to now when she can run and jump, wear a school uniform, and is a well-behaved and good student.
They always can't help but sigh that time passes too quickly.
The days when Yu Huan hugged their necks and acted coquettishly, and helped them with their work in a professional manner were still just around the corner, but in the blink of an eye, she has grown up so much.
