Chapter 9: After the Crossing
The scenes of the past are both sweet and bitter and fearful, and every time Tang's father and Tang's mother think of it, they will feel like a long dream. But the life in front of them is undoubtedly telling them that this is not a dream, but a reality.
At 5:30 in the morning, the family was going for a morning run as usual, although Xiaorui wanted to stay in bed every time, but when he thought that such training could allow him to obtain the ability he dreamed of, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
I still remember that he asked his mother why he let himself run every morning at such a young age, and Tang's mother coaxed him to say that he could gain an ability by training like this, which could allow him to do whatever he wanted, and not to do anything he didn't want to do.
"Xiaorui, Xiaoyun, come downstairs to eat something, let's go!" Tang Ma shouted, her voice full of love.
Wen Rui was getting dressed at this time, and when he heard his mother's voice, he hurriedly said, "Hey, come down immediately!" hurriedly put on his sportswear, folded the quilt a few times, put on his shoes and rushed downstairs.
Wen Yun had already dressed up, folded the quilt, and followed her brother downstairs, looking at her brother's hurried appearance, she secretly laughed in her heart.
Tang's mother was preparing milk and fruit, and suddenly Xiaorui hugged her from behind, she smiled slightly, turned around, and just wanted to praise him for not lying in bed today, but after a closer look, his shoes were worn backwards, his pants were also worn backwards, and the hat of the sports jacket was still stuck in the clothes, and she couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Touching his head, he was led to the couch to change.
After the family washes up, they sit around the dining table, first drink a glass of warm water, then drink warm milk, and eat a fruit.
"Xiao Rui, you did well today, keep it up!" said Dad Tang, looking at his son with a smile.
"Well, Xiao Rui will definitely keep it. Wen Rui pretended to be a big man on TV, patted his chest and said. Tang Ma and Wen Yun couldn't help but snicker when they saw his funny appearance.
After drinking the milk, I did a warm-up exercise in the yard, and the family set off at about 5:50, and there was a long alley out of front of the house, and they jogged towards the right, and out of the alley was a large wood, and it was summer, and the trees grew luxuriantly and were full of greenery. At this time, the sun has just risen, and the sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves on the forest path.
"Xiao Rui, Xiao Yun, hold on for a while and you'll be there soon!" Dad Tang, who was in the lead, looked back and saw that Xiao Rui and Xiao Yun were panting violently, and encouraged them.
"Yes, hold on! Xiaorui, Xiaoyun is the best!" Tang's mother, who ran behind her sister and brother, also cheered them up.
Xiao Rui's forehead has begun to sweat, his whole body is hot, his calves seem to be tied with lead, he wants to stop and rest for a while, but in this way, he will not achieve the effect of training, the time for him to obtain that ability will be delayed, and he will have to write homework for a longer time, he would rather die than do this, so he gritted his teeth and persevered.
Xiaoyun was already a little tired, but when she saw that her younger brother could persevere, how could she fall behind as an older sister?
Tang's mother was very relieved to see that although the sister and brother were tired, they did not call for rest.
The sun rose higher and higher, and the sun shone on Xiao Rui's head, and the erect white hair shone like silver needles. After a while, he faintly heard the sound of waves washing the beach, and as soon as Xiao Rui heard this sound, he knew that he was about to reach the end, and at this time he could not be discouraged, and began to sprint forward, sweat dripping down his cheeks and dripping on the forest path.
"It's here!" said Dad Tang, running out of the grove and towards the sea not far away.
Rui then ran out of the woods and rushed out into the blue sea with a shout of joy.
The sun shines on the sea, and a long golden line appears on the sea, as if it is a road to a mysterious island. Although he sees such a scenery every day, every time Xiao Rui can't help but feel excited, the sun that shines on the earth, the boundless vast sea, the incomparable, earth-shaking power makes him worship, so that he can hardly restrain the excitement in his heart, and can't help but shout at them.
Tang's mother walked over, squatted down, her face was full of love, and asked while wiping Xiaorui's sweat, "Xiaorui, are you tired?"
"Mom, I'm not tired. Xiao Rui's face was full of sweat, but he still said with a smile.
"Xiao Rui is so good!" Tang Ma praised him while asking him to drink water to quench his thirst.
Xiao Yun walked over, saw that his brother's face was red, obviously running very hot, and said: "Xiao Rui has improved more and more recently, and even I can't compare!"
"yes, both of you have made great progress, and you have been able to persevere all the way without resting. Dad Tang also came over and touched Xiaorui's head.
The family rested for a while and began to jog home.
A cute little bird stopped on the tree next to the path, Xiao Rui saw that it was very cute, and wanted it to fly to his side to play with him, so he stared at it and kept silently saying: "Fly here, fly here, I won't hurt you." To his great surprise, the little bird really flew towards him, it stopped on Xiao Rui's shoulder, and attached its beak to Xiao Rui's ears, as if he had met an old friend, Xiao Rui wanted to reach out to touch it, but he was afraid of scaring it away, so he didn't touch it and continued to run forward, Xiao Yun and Tang Ma who ran behind him both saw this scene, although Xiao Yun was puzzled but only when this was purely accidental, Tang Ma knew that Xiao Rui's ability had begun to be revealed, and it would become stronger and stronger over time......
After returning home, it was about 6:40, the family changed their clothes, Tang's mother went to prepare breakfast, Tang's father went to prepare the things to bring to work, Xiaorui and Xiaoyun went to pack their schoolbags, about 15 minutes later, breakfast was ready, and the family sat around the dining table and began to eat breakfast.
"Xiaorui, the final exam is coming soon, you have to work hard!" said Dad Tang, with a kind smile on his face.
"Well, it's guaranteed to be the first in the class. Xiao Rui looked confident.
"Sister has confidence in Xiao Rui!" Wen Yun smiled at Xiao Rui and said.
After breakfast, Tang's mother cleaned up, Tang's father started the car, the family went out of the house, and sent the two sisters and brothers to school, Tang's father first drove Tang's mother to the hospital to work, and then went to his own design company, starting a busy day's work, which was founded by him 8 years ago, by him as the design director, to provide customers with integrated design services, including industrial design, brand design, interaction design, service design and other modules, and has now become the most influential design company in the city and even in the country.
