Sunday, April 9, at half past six in the morning, as it had been agreed in advance yesterday.

Shui Qing took Shui Xiaoying and Hong Yanwu, who had been waiting in the alley, for a secret round, and they rode off together.

Where is the destination?

There is no need to ask, of course, it is the Beijing Zoo.

In the capital of this era, in this season, only this place is the favorite of children.

On the other hand, going to other parks can be too boring for children.

Because you can't row boats, play with swings, slides, chain bridges, etc., and the ground is not completely frozen, it is still hard.

I'm afraid that I can only look at the scenery, run around and jump, and then pose to take pictures under the fiddling of adults.

How awkward it is, how awkward it is, how boring it is, anyway, for Shui Xiaoying, she is not happy to play like this.

As for why he left so early, there are two reasons.

First, because the road is far away.

In these years, the bus system was not developed, and waiting for the bus did not come.

I finally came to the car, but I couldn't get on again.

Or maybe the bus breaks down in the middle of the road, these situations are all too common.

Therefore, the most reliable means of travel has to be said to be bicycles.

But I have to say that I rode from the south of the city to the outside of the second ring road in the west of the city, and I didn't get there in an hour?

Second, this is also determined by the habits and activities of animals.

Most of the animals play early in the morning.

If you wait for the keepers to finish feeding and they are all fed and drunk, then it's time to find a place to sleep in the sun.

For example, if anyone visits the zoo and rushes to the panda pavilion at 9 o'clock, they will most likely see pandas on a stone bridge, playing with tires, somersaults, or something. It's a worthwhile trip.

But after ten o'clock, you can only see the "national treasures" holding the bamboo and eating intently.

After another half an hour, I'm afraid that I will be able to look at a big belly and round ass at most.

Because the panda should find the sun and the earth to stare at Jue'er.

So, it's a smart timeline.

Of course, if you go so early, it will definitely not work if you don't eat breakfast, and Hong Yanwu must not let Shui Qing and the child go hungry.

So he took them to the "Cow Street" and stopped for a stop.

The crispy baked cakes just out of the pot are sandwiched with fragrant roast beef, and then they are hot with "bean bubble soup" and then continue to set off.

When you get to the zoo with enough food and drink, you will be ten minutes away from eight o'clock, just in time for the animals to be most active.

What pandas roll, lions and tigers roar, bears practice in the morning, and monkeys make trouble in the mountains, but they all catch up.

At this time, there are not many tourists, it is not a crowded time, the view is very good, and there is no shortage of places.

Hong Yanwu spent five cents to buy a large bag of yellow and clear puffed corn kernels, which were fed to both children and animals.

So not only Shui Xiaoying sat on Hong Yanwu's neck and watched happily, but even Shui Qing stroked his palms and laughed from time to time.

I didn't expect the animals in the zoo to be so amused, but it was almost like watching a circus performance.

Especially in Dog Bear Mountain and Monkey Mountain, these two women stayed for a long time.

After playing like this until nine o'clock, Hong Yanwu saw that there were more and more tourists entering the park, so he hurriedly found a seat for the mother and son to rest.

Then he took them to the north of the park, where they saw the elephants and rhinoceros, and went to the deer park with the least number of people.

It stands to reason that in addition to cattle and sheep, deer and donkeys, the deer park should be the most boring place in the whole park, and most tourists are often here to watch the flowers.

But because Hong Yanwu had experience in accompanying his daughter in his previous life, his bag deliberately brought shredded vegetables cut out by knife practitioners.

Here, on the contrary, the innocent happiness of Shui Xiaoying was fully released.

At first, this girl was a little scared to get close to the animals, but as soon as she fed the animals through the cage, she experienced the fun.

Eventually, she broke free of the adults' hands and began to approach them.

After feeding this, feeding that again, not a cage was pulled down, running one by one, very lively.

And the herbivores were also very fond of Shui Xiaoying, and they all rushed to eat what she had in her hands.

Some bared their teeth, some leaned their necks, some pushed her hands, and some called twice.

Others are not ashamed, so they simply sprinkle a soak of hot urine.

Only sika deer are the most likable, because they not only eat, but also gently lick people's hands.

This left a very good impression on Xiaoying, and from then on he believed that they were the most humane animals in the world.

And as soon as the child is happy, Shui Qing is also happy.

Not only did she feed the animals with her children, but she also fulfilled the educational responsibilities of a good mother, taking the opportunity to tell her children about the characteristics of various animals and teach Xiaoying how to identify them.

They played in such an entertaining and educational way until half past ten, and when they had finished feeding everything they had brought, they left from here.

Then he turned to the west of the park and went to the reptile house.

But here, Xiaoying is not the well-behaved person she was just now, and she is starting to be mischievous.

The Dare to Crawl Pavilion is full of cold-blooded animals such as turtles, crocodiles, pythons, and lizards, and the light is very dark and terrifying, and the space is particularly transparent and spacious.

When people talk a little louder in the museum, the sound becomes very bright.

This girl threw off her voice and shouted, just to listen to the echo.

As a result, just as she thought, a voice of "buying tatters", and sure enough, many choruses popped up, and it had quite a remarkable effect.

But this time it also made Shui Qing's face red, and he immediately said her.

"You're a girl, you have to have a side, you have to go out, it's not at home. ”

Unexpectedly, the more she talked, Shui Xiaoying became more and more energetic, just like a stubborn little donkey, screaming endlessly, which attracted more and more laughter from others.

In the end, it was Hong Yanwu who intervened and explained to Shui Xiaoying what the echo was about, and she refused to stop.

Then don't ask, Shui Qing here is not happy to stay any longer.

One was angry with Xiaoying, and the other was tired of the animals here.

So they went to the nearby waterfowl lake.

Don't look at Shui Xiaoying snuggling in Hong Yanwu's arms and feeding swans and wild ducks with puffed corn kernels, but Shui Qing'er can't be eliminated by saying it.

Sitting by the lake, she was still complaining that Xiaoying was born in the wrong place.

said that she was supposed to be a wild boy, but she went to the wrong door and became a little girl, but her temperament has not changed, and she does not look like a meek, kind, smart, and sensible girl.

She also said that thanks to Hong Yanwu today, this girl can be obedient, and it is really a thing to a thing.

How do you know that Hong Yanwu actually laughed, but she didn't count.

"Xiaoying is only five years old this year, and it is the time when chaos has not yet opened. As a human being, it has only been a few years to be happy, why do you bother her?"

"Besides, children's pranks have to be distinguished from boredom or curiosity. I think Xiaoying was mostly curious just now, isn't this just a desire for knowledge?"

"The child's sense of resistance is actually quite strong. If a child does something wrong, adults must not come up and reprimand and respond with a condescending attitude, but try to reason from the perspective of understanding. That's probably why Xiaoying is still willing to listen to me. ”

"As for you, I think my patience is about to be exhausted by overtime. I think you'll have to learn the proper 'soup stuff'. Because if you want to be more serious about everything at work, it will tire you out. And if people are anxious, they can't do well in life and work, and it becomes a vicious circle. ”

These words left Shui Qing speechless.

Through this incident, she felt more and more that Hong Yanwu understood the child very well and understood her very well.

Thinking about everything he had arranged today, it was so comfortable everywhere, and she became more and more convinced that he would be a good father and husband who was attentive and considerate.

Interestingly, she is not the only one who has this idea, even Shui Xiaoying, the girl, said so.

"Uncle Wu Zi, I like you so much. My dad always said that he was busy with work and wouldn't take me to the park. Why aren't you my father?

The child's sudden words made Shui Qing's face suddenly turn red.

Hong Yanwu was a little excited, and just asked along the way.

"Hey, you little girl, you're really good at complimenting. Well, we will have two fathers in Xiaoying in the future. It doesn't matter if that dad is busy, my dad will take you out to play. How?"

Shui Xiaoying rolled her eyes.

"That'...... Then you're just going to take me to the park?"

"Yo, what other conditions do you have?"

"I want to eat marshmallows......"

"It's easy, we'll buy it in a moment. ”

"I still want to eat chocolate?"

"Buy it too. ”

"Where's the jelly beans?"

"Buy them all!"

Shui Qing is so angry and funny, I can't say that this is big and small.

It seems that eating other people's mouths is short, and taking other people's hands is short, which is really a universal truth.

However, she watched Shui Xiaoying twist candy and became intimate with Hong Yanwu, and she also felt very happy.

Because in her eyes, the two of them are really like a pair of biological father and daughter.

Coincidentally, at this time, the warm picture of the three of them sitting together also deeply moved an outsider.

A photographer squatting next to the waterfowl lake to photograph waterfowl felt that under the sun's illumination, in the sparkling silver light of the water, the appearance, demeanor, clothing, and behavior of this family of three by the lake were so perfect.

So he quickly shifted the lens, adjusted the focus without anyone knowing, and pressed the shutter for the candid shot.

The moment the camera froze, it happened to capture the scene where Hong Yanwu held Shui Xiaoying up and Shui Qing was stroking his palms and smiling.

In this way, a year later, at the 13th National Photography Art Exhibition, a photo that should not have appeared won the silver medal in the black and white category.

And this photographic work, named "Lifting the Taller", coincides with the theme of "Look at the Girl", which won the silver medal in the color group, and the two photos complement each other.

Together it has become a clear proof of the people's happy life in the early days of reform and opening up, and will forever be recorded in the history of photography in our country.

In fact, this is the story that no one knows.

Otherwise, from this aspect, even if this "Lifting Taller" is awarded a gold award, it is also deserved.

The second group has been opened, group number: 608640021
