"Daddy, what are we doing here?" Little Rice Cake rubbed his eyes, feeling extremely sleepy, and lay on the old bicycle.
Yun Jin sat on the back of the bicycle, holding He Tingchuan, also dozing off.
He Tingchuan, holding two girls in his arms, looked at the sleepy-eyed Xiao Niangao and kissed her: "Watching the flag-raising ceremony, didn't we agree on that yesterday?"
Little Rice Cake looked blank: "Really?"
He Tingchuan nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
Little Rice Cake gave up arguing and said in a childish voice, "Next time let's not come so early, Daddy, I'm so sleepy!"
"We're almost there. Go back to sleep after you've finished watching." He Tingchuan rubbed his daughter's head.
Little Rice Cake widened her eyes intently: "Where's Mommy?"
Yun Jin said weakly, "Mom's here!"
"Mom, are we almost there?" Little Rice Cake asked for confirmation, feeling that her father was a bit unreliable. Who gets up this early?
"Almost there!" Yun Jin cheered.
When we arrived at the location, there were already many people waiting, all there to watch the flag-raising ceremony. Most of them were university students from all over the country. How could they miss this ceremony when they were in Beijing?
They don't have time during the week because of classes, but they can come and visit during the holidays.
After all, many people will never be able to watch a flag-raising ceremony live in their lifetime.
When they saw the bright red five-star flag fluttering in the wind, they felt excited, thrilled, and proud.
Yun Jin and her group arrived late, and the area in front of them was already packed with people. After He Tingchuan parked the car, he could only stand in line with his daughter and wife. When it was finally their turn to go through, there was a huge crowd in front of them.
Little Niangao saw so many people while squeezing onto the train. She was riding on her father's shoulders, with a great view, watching the crowd rushing towards the flagpole. She excitedly grabbed her father's hair: "Daddy, hurry up, there are so many people ahead!"
He Tingchuan held his daughter with one hand and his wife with the other, afraid that his wife would be pushed away by others.
Yun Jin followed closely behind. With He Tingchuan leading the way, she didn't have much trouble walking, as He Tingchuan protected her in front.
Afraid that Yun Jin couldn't see, He Tingchuan whispered, "Do you want me to hold you so you can see?"
Yun Jin shook her head.
He Tingchuan teased her on purpose: "Don't be afraid, we're husband and wife, it's okay to hug."
Yun Jin pinched him: "Shut up."
She knew he was doing it on purpose; he just wanted to see her embarrassed.
This person is becoming more and more despicable.
He Tingchuan felt good after being pinched and stopped teasing her.
He knew that if he continued teasing her, his wife would get angry and it wouldn't be as simple as just pinching or biting her.
I have to stomp on his feet a couple of times before I'm satisfied.
The little rice cake sits high and can see far.
A little boy, who had also been brought by his parents to watch the flag-raising ceremony, looked at the taller little girl and tugged at his father enviously, saying, "Dad, look at her! Dad, I want one too!"
Damn competitive spirit made this father grit his teeth and let his son ride on his shoulders.
Even so, his son didn't see as far as Xiao Nian Gao.
The base isn't high enough; even if you sit on your neck, you can't see very far.
He Tingchuan and Xiao Niangao, with their tall stature and long legs, were the focus of attention in the crowd.
One after another, many parents who brought their children arrived, and their fathers were forced to become human stools, with their children of all sizes sitting on their necks.
A boy who was only 1.3 or 1.4 meters tall saw other fathers carrying their children on their backs and looked longingly at his father, only to be ruthlessly rejected: "How old are they? How old are you?"
The boy looked away, feeling wronged, and glanced at the little rice cake with envy.
Finally, the father, feeling guilty, had no choice but to lift his son up with both hands. His son laughed heartily, while the father, grinning from ear to ear, nearly died from exhaustion.
As soon as the ceremony began, the rustling crowd fell silent, all looking in the same direction.
As soon as the national anthem began, tens of thousands of people spontaneously sang it together. Watching the flag being raised, their hearts were filled with excitement and their eyes burned with fervor. Only they themselves could truly understand the joy and pride they felt.
Little Rice Cake's big, bright eyes were filled with confusion and curiosity, and she seemed to want to keep up with their pace.
Unfortunately, she was too young to understand what they were singing.
All they know is to follow the trend and sing, "Arise, arise, arise!"
Yun Jin later taught Xiao Niangao to sing and salute. The next time she took her there, Xiao Niangao felt a strong sense of belonging and sang the loudest.
When the crowd dispersed, some people stayed put to look around a bit more.
Yun Jin never expected to run into people from the school in the crowd, and even saw Pan Liwei, of course, the Pan Liwei who actually got into university.
Pan Liwei, who had a grudge against He Tingchuan, has been sent to a labor camp.
Besides him, there were also several female classmates.
Ailan and the others also arrived. Yun Jin's family of three was too eye-catching. The man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, and the child was cute. They could be spotted at a glance in the crowd. Looking at Yun Jin being protected by He Tingchuan, they were filled with envy and jealousy.
This woman is so lucky!
When they saw He Tingchuan was there, they didn't dare to show themselves and slunk away. Yun Jin didn't see them.
They've all come out; they're definitely going to have breakfast.
Yun Jin couldn't appreciate the local delicacies, so she ate a bowl of Zha Jiang Mian (noodles with soybean paste) early in the morning.
He Tingchuan ate the local delicacies, which he had eaten since childhood and found acceptable.
Seeing that Xiao Niangao was staring at him, he gave her a sip of soy milk. As soon as Xiao Niangao finished drinking it, she made a bitter face and spat out the soy milk. Her father caught it with his hand to prevent her from spitting it out everywhere.
Little Rice Cake looked aggrieved: "Mommy, it tastes awful!"
Yun Jin knew this would happen, so she took the child and fed her noodles with soybean paste.
He Tingchuan went to wash his hands and came back to enjoy his meal alone.
After finishing his meal, he took advantage of the moment when no one was looking and deliberately teased Yun Jin, trying to kiss her, but Yun Jin avoided him in disgust.
