Chapter 254 Summer Vacation (3)
Chapter 254 Summer Vacation (3)
When the twins saw their older sister return, they clung to her and wouldn't let go.
"Sister, why did you stay at Grandma's house after the New Year and not come back?" Ruoxi asked.
"My sister goes to school there."
"Why do you have to go to school? You're a teacher! A teacher on Qiongzhou Island, yet you have to go to the capital to be a student."
“My sister’s education level is not high enough. She must continue her studies to improve her education and abilities so that she can not only become a teacher but also do other jobs in the future.”
"There are so many jobs on this island. If you don't like being a teacher, you can do other jobs!"
"Wow! Ruoxi has a sharp tongue, even your older sister can't out-argue you. You'll understand when you grow up, there's no end to learning in this life."
"I just want my sister to stay here with us! I've lost weight from missing her so much."
Ruoxi's words caused everyone to burst into laughter.
An Xin smiled and hugged her younger sister, pinching her chubby little face.
"I think you've actually gained weight, not lost it!"
Sister Lan came and took the two twins out.
"Don't disturb your sister's meal. Wait until she finishes eating before playing with Ruochen and Ruoxi."
After lunch, they stayed at home because the midday sun was too strong.
Su Jinru inquired in detail about An Xin's school situation and was not surprised to learn that she ranked first in her grade in the final exam.
An Xin had already studied all the books her brother had read when he was in high school.
Moreover, she had heard that many students at their current school were not very diligent in their studies because they did not have the pressure of taking the college entrance exam.
However, she was also pleased to hear that the three boys had begun to work hard under An Xin's influence.
Being able to guide the Luo family's most beloved child onto the path of studying hard is also a way of repaying the Luo family for raising Yuan Wenjie and for their unconditional love for Su Jinru and her two children.
Su Jinru's house was spacious and had a guest room, which Monkey and Taozi stayed in, while Luo Xingguo stayed in Anran's room.
After arranging their rooms, Su Jinru coaxed the twins to sleep and then took a nap herself.
The three boys, on the other hand, were full of curiosity about everything.
Su Jinru's home has a completely pastoral style.
The yard was filled with all kinds of vegetables, which were lush and green, with eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and pumpkins hanging everywhere.
Behind the house grows a persimmon tree, a pomegranate tree, and a jujube tree, all laden with fruit.
There is a grape vine on the left side of the front of the house and an osmanthus tree on the right. There are two huge rose bushes, taller than a person, on either side of the entrance. The rose bush on the left is red and the rose bush on the right is yellow.
The rose bushes and leaves grow wildly and are particularly flamboyant. The flowers bloom in layers, with hundreds of flowers of various sizes, and some are still buds about to open. The flowers are exquisite and large, and their beauty is breathtaking.
The monkey clicked its tongue.
"Such a beautiful flower. For the first time, I felt ashamed that I hadn't studied Chinese properly and couldn't express the beauty of this flower in words."
Taozi agreed: "All language is pale and cannot accurately describe the beauty of this flower."
Luo Xingguo: "I've seen roses in flowerpots, but I've never seen any so big and tall. It's amazing that a single rose bush can have so many flowers."
Monkey: "This must be your mother's masterpiece! Ordinary people can't grow such beautiful roses."
An Xin nodded.
"Of course, my mom planted them! Other families saw them and really liked them. They wanted to plant a couple of rose bushes like these in front of their own houses. My mom helped them plant them and they were able to transplant them. But none of the flowers they planted were as lush and bloomed as continuously as these two. They bloom all year round, every day, with flowers in full bloom. I feel sorry for them because they bloom so hard. I wonder if they are overdoing it and exhausting their energy. But year after year, they are still full of vitality and continue to bloom without stopping."
These two flowers were transplanted from the space by Su Jinru.
Because it was nurtured in the space for half a year, which is equivalent to four or five years in real life, and with the blessing of the spiritual water, it grew very well.
Six months after Su Jinru transplanted them, they grew even more lushly. Because of the warm climate here, these two rose bushes bloom all year round, and the flowers are exquisite, large, and very stunning.
Luo Xingguo: "I think your mother grows everything very well, whether it's rice, fruit trees, vegetables, or flowers. There's no plant she can't grow well."
An Xin: "It's really true. The vegetables my mother used to grow were very good. No matter how others planted and cared for them, they couldn't compare to the ones my mother grew.
Taozi: "Your mother has a talent for planting."
The monkey stood under the grapevine, casually picked a bunch of grapes, and said while eating, "I feel like I'm dreaming. There are such beautiful and abundant places in the world. It's simply impossible, unscientific. It probably only exists in dreams!"
Taozi twisted the monkey's arm.
The monkey cried out in surprise.
Why are you twisting me?
"Let me check if you're dreaming."
In the afternoon, they couldn't stay at home, so they let Heizi out, and together they ran, jumped, and cheered happily towards the beach.
Thus, the three boys, who had grown up in the capital, found all the attractions on the island fascinating.
Every day, they would take Heizi with them, either picking fruit to eat, chasing each other along the paths in the golden rice paddies, or running wildly on the beach, chasing the waves, watching the sunrise over the sea, and witnessing the magnificent and tragic sunset.
They also go to the beach to collect fish and shrimp and dig for baby sea turtles on the sand when the tide is low in the morning.
In short, I'm enjoying this unique life every single day, every moment.
Taozi even said, "I don't want to go back. I want to stay here for the rest of my life. I'd be willing to work on a farm or raise pigs."
An Xin: "Do you think anyone can farm or raise pigs? To farm, you need to know how to drive a car, operate a harvester or tractor, and know how to farm scientifically. Raising pigs requires pre-job training, and only those who pass the training can be employed."
"I can learn it!"
An Xin smiled and said, "Then go back and discuss it with your parents. If they agree, out of consideration for our classmate relationship, I can talk to my dad and pull some strings to let you farm or raise pigs."
Monkey: "How could his parents possibly agree to him coming here to raise pigs?"
Taozi: "As if your parents would agree to you coming."
"Therefore I dare not hope for more."
An Xin: "No matter how beautiful this place is, it only covers six square kilometers. The capital city has a much wider world. You will find it novel if you come here for a few days occasionally, but after a while, it will just be the same."
