Song Ziqing had just seen her husband off when she rushed back upstairs to wake her two children.
Without hesitation, she led the two little ones into the courtyard, and then began practicing Tai Chi with them.
Song Meiling also woke up at this moment, and when she witnessed this scene, she immediately went forward.
"Ziqing, I'm very interested in the Tai Chi you're practicing. I'd like to learn it too!" Song Meiling said expectantly.
"I feel that since my siblings went to Hong Kong, their health has improved significantly, which may be closely related to the Tai Chi you taught them."
Furthermore, I've heard you mention before that Chengcheng and Yu'er have excellent health and have hardly ever been sick since birth. Perhaps this is related to the fact that you had them practice Tai Chi from a young age.
Song Ziqing smiled and replied, "That's right, Soong, Tai Chi is indeed very beneficial to the body. It can not only exercise the body, but also regulate the balance of mind and body."
Our children have been exposed to this since they were little, and naturally developed healthy lifestyle habits.
If you're willing to learn, I can certainly teach you! But you need to practice consistently to see results.
So, Song Ziqing began to patiently explain the basic movements and key points of Tai Chi to Song Meiling.
She demonstrated each move and carefully corrected Song Meiling's posture.
Gradually, Song Meiling mastered some key skills, and her movements became more and more skillful and fluid.
As time went by, the atmosphere in the courtyard became increasingly harmonious and peaceful.
Sunlight streamed down, a gentle breeze blew, and the four people immersed themselves in the rhythm of Tai Chi, enjoying this unique tranquility and beauty.
Their figures intertwined in the sunlight, creating a beautiful scene that seemed to freeze time itself.
In the days that followed, Song Meiling would set aside time each day to practice Tai Chi with Song Ziqing.
They learned from and encouraged each other, and their relationship grew closer.
Practicing Tai Chi not only gradually strengthened Song Meiling's body, but also made her mind more peaceful and tranquil.
Song Ziqing, on the other hand, experienced the joy and satisfaction of sharing during the teaching process.
The children watched their mothers practice boxing, and sometimes they would imitate a few of the moves, filling the courtyard with laughter.
This shared experience became a cherished memory for Song Ziqing and Song Meiling, and it also forged a deep friendship between them.
Yes, it's friendship.
There is a significant age and generation gap between Song Ziqing and Song Meiling, but surprisingly, they have a lot in common.
The two women each had a child with them. Besides practicing Tai Chi together every morning to exercise, Song Meiling, as the host, especially enjoyed taking the three of them, mother and son, and mother and daughter, for walks through the streets and alleys of New York.
However, these seemingly casual strolls were not without purpose.
In fact, when Soong Mei-ling and Soong Tzu-ching strolled together, she would take the opportunity to give the latter a detailed introduction to the various well-known families, influential figures, and intricate networks of relationships in New York.
In this way, Song Ziqing was able to gain a deeper understanding of the stories and interpersonal networks behind this unfamiliar city.
During his stroll, Song Ziqing discovered that Song Meiling also had a strong interest in art.
"Soong, what's that building up ahead?" Song Ziqing pointed ahead and asked curiously.
"That's the Museum of Modern Art in New York!"
With a smile on her face, Song Meiling patiently explained, "This place houses many world-class works of art! You're already a world-renowned female painter, so you should definitely visit museums more often to improve your artistic appreciation."
Hearing Song Meiling say this, Song Ziqing couldn't help but be moved.
She thought for a moment, then suggested, "Let's go in and take a look. It'll be a good opportunity for Chengcheng and Yu'er to be exposed to more art."
I've been observing my two children for the past two years, and I think my son Chengcheng might inherit the family business or choose to start his own business in the future.
However, despite being a bit spoiled, Xiaoyu'er is quite talented in art!
She usually enjoys watching singing and dancing shows on TV. And when I'm drawing, she can sit quietly and even likes to doodle with me.
She's especially sensitive to colors; she's fantastic at things like coloring!
After entering the museum, Song Ziqing led the children to appreciate the famous paintings one by one, explaining the artistic conception in the paintings and the painter's creative techniques.
Song Meiling occasionally shared her insights, guiding the children to appreciate the charm of art.
During this time, Xiaoyu was attracted by a brightly colored abstract painting and stood in front of it for a long time.
Song Ziqing noticed her daughter's interest and encouraged her to share her thoughts on the painting.
Xiaoyuer timidly said, "This painting looks like it's dancing. I see many colors moving around."
Song Meiling smiled and patted Xiaoyu'er's head to show her approval.
Next, they visited other exhibition halls, where the children thoroughly enjoyed the artistic feast.
As they left the museum, Xiaoyu excitedly told Song Ziqing, "Mom, when I grow up, I want to be a painter like you!"
Song Ziqing smiled with satisfaction. She knew that today's visit had planted a seed of art in Xiaoyu'er's heart.
She still hopes that her daughter can find her life goal as soon as possible, and not live a muddled life like the daughters of other families in Hong Kong, who become wealthy idlers.
After leaving the museum, Song Ziqing and Song Meiling did not leave immediately, but found a quiet corner to sit down and continue their conversation.
The sunlight shone on them, as if draping the whole scene in a golden veil.
The two hit it off immediately, discussing a wide range of topics including art, culture, and family.
They shared their unique insights and feelings about these fields, while also listening to each other tell their untold stories and experiences.
As their conversations deepened, they discovered that they had so many things in common and that they were compatible with each other.
"Thank you, Soong, I have really benefited a lot today."
Song Ziqing said with emotion, his eyes revealing sincere gratitude.
"Don't say that, Ziqing. I also find it very enjoyable to chat with you."
Song Meiling responded with a gentle smile, a smile as warm as the spring sun.
Before we knew it, the sun was gradually setting in the west, and a magnificent sunset appeared on the horizon.
Song Ziqing and Song Meiling held the children's hands and embarked on their journey home, chatting and laughing along the way.
At this moment, their hearts are filled with beautiful dreams and expectations for the future.
