If Yang Dongxu was a child, a five- or six-year-old child would follow a group of older children around all day long, and the whole village would look for him and shout at him when he was eating.
Nowadays, if five or six-year-old children, especially those in the city, want to go out to play, adults basically have to watch from behind.
Even though Wen Chen spent summer and winter vacations in the countryside, he often played with the children in the village and seemed to be stronger and more sensible than the children in the city.
But with such a small child in the city, Yang Dongxu still didn't dare to let him go out alone, so after running around the house and in the yard, he felt bored, so he had no choice but to go out with him.
"Dad, why don't we have a dog at home?" Wen Chen asked.
During the summer vacation in my hometown, I went with the older kids in the village and was beaten twice. Wen Chen has become a little used to having a dog following behind him every time he goes out.
Moreover, my own dog will follow me into the river, which makes me very happy.
Dogs in rural areas are dominant in rural areas, especially dogs in a village. When they hang out together, a group of children in front and a group of dogs in the back will take a detour to follow the thief.
“To set up a dog breeding business, you need to apply for a dog license and get various vaccinations. And although our family is not small to raise a dog at home, it is definitely not as big as my hometown.
A dog will be depressed if it stays in such a small place. Your Grandma Cui and the rest of the family have to do housework and cooking, and your mother and I don’t have time to walk it around when we work, so it’s not good to raise a dog here.
If you want to play with the dog, let’s go back to your hometown together during the winter vacation. We have so many dogs at home, and you, Xiaowu, and Uncle Daliang’s house also have dogs to play with. "Yang Dongxu explained to his son while driving.
Usually when the father and son go out, he will not let the driver drive.
Similarly, Zhou Ya would not let the driver drive every time she went to the kindergarten. She basically acted as the driver herself and let Xiao Wenchen sit in the back.
As for the bodyguards, they will follow behind in another inconspicuous car and wear plain clothes.
Usually when going to work or going out to discuss business, it is a must-have to drive several big cars together. Although he has passed the stage of negotiating for external decorations such as driving tests and luxury watches.
Even if he rides a bicycle to negotiate, others will greet him with a smile and praise him for his understanding of life and environmental protection. But what you have to say is there are a lot of snobs in the world.
Even if your partner doesn't dislike you, if you really try to ride a bicycle, the hotel security will probably stop you.
There are also other cars we occasionally encounter on the road, as well as other minor encounters. If you drive three Mercedes-Benz cars together, and people notice that you still have a special license plate, the man in the parking lot will be courteous to you.
Therefore, sometimes for people like Yang Dongxu, although the wardrobe is no longer a symbol of status, taking it out when going out can avoid a lot of minor troubles.
But when I brought Wen Chen out, I didn't want to be so fancy. I just drove a very bourgeois car. Zhou Ya's Audi A4 was not expensive, and it was a model from a few years ago.
It is better than ordinary cars, but not comparable to some good cars. It can slightly avoid some minor troubles that may occur, and it is not as ostentatious as other luxury cars.
In addition, there are no bodyguards in suits and sunglasses around, or even a full-time driver, which allows the father and son to relax and enjoy this kind of parent-child time.
"Can we raise cats? The cats in my hometown are very powerful. Grandma said that there are bamboos around our old house that attract snakes, so we need to raise cats that are very powerful so that snakes will not run into our house.
Dad, don’t cats catch mice? Why does it still catch snakes? "Wen Chen sat in the back seat and fastened his seat belt conscientiously.
Although there was no ADHD behavior like lying on the car window, or sticking his head out of the car window, the little mouth never stopped.
"We don't have mice in our house, so if we raise a cat, we will be too hungry to keep it. I want to play with the cat back home, and the cat not only catches snakes, but also catches birds. Haven't you seen cats climbing up trees to catch birds?"
"I've seen it. Our big flower ran off the tree and bit off the horse in one bite." Wen Chen gestured.
Xiao Wenchen speaks Mandarin very well, because many children in the kindergarten are locals from Magic City, and they occasionally speak with a Magic City accent, but it is only an occasional thing.
At the same time, there are also some dialects at home that occasionally come up. For example, he knows that magpies are called Magpie, but he prefers to call them Ma Chazi, because when magpies chirp, they jump up and down on the trees and make a whimpering sound, so there is this dialect. name.
There are also cuckoos called old turtle doves, wild silkworms on mulberry trees in summer called hanged ghosts, etc. First of all, Yang Dongxu doesn't care about such accents and names, and neither does Zhou Ya. Children can say whatever they like, as long as they understand what it is.
"By the way, when you go back during the summer vacation, will your uncle Daliang give you a slingshot? You're not allowed to play in the city, you know? Even if you play, you can't load the bullet, otherwise it will hit the neighbor's glass or hurt someone. I will definitely beat you up.
Also, it’s not a good boy to hunt birds in the city. This teacher also taught you, right? So the slingshot can only be played back home, not in the city. "Yang Dongxu warned.
Slingshots are basically a standard accessory for boys in rural areas, just like rubber bands are a standard accessory for girls. But rubber band jumping is okay to play in the city. Children in the city also play this now, but the slingshot is too dangerous.
"I know, mom has said it many times." Wen Chen said like a little adult, "The city is not fun at all. You can't hunt birds, chase rabbits with your dog, and you can't swim in the river."
The school had just started, and Wen Chen, who had not put away his summer vacation in his hometown to let himself play, felt that there was nothing good anywhere in the city, and it would be better to be free in the countryside.
He wanted to transfer to school and go back to the countryside. It would be fun to get out of school together with Uncle Daliang, Uncle Xiaowu's children, and other brothers and sisters in the village.
Little Wenchen has seen too many electronic toy cars, small airplanes, Ultraman and so on. The various dinosaur robots at home are enough to play Star Wars.
So he was not interested in these things, so he went out to the shopping mall and went to the children's play area of the big shopping mall to take him shopping. Yang Dongxu was tired and Xiao Wenchen was not interested.
In addition to children's play areas, places suitable for children are parks, playgrounds and zoos where they can run wild.
The place Yang Dongxu took Xiao Wenchen to today was the Ocean Mansion. The temperature in the Magic City in early September was still a bit high, and it was very hot when going outdoors, so the Ocean Mansion became a very good place to relax.
At the same time, there is an indoor swimming pool next to the aquarium. Yang Dongxu brought swimming trunks and planned to visit the aquarium in the morning, then find a place to have lunch, and go to the swimming pool to teach his son how to swim in the afternoon.
In fact, if you want to teach swimming, you can teach it in your home swimming pool, but Yang Dongxu is afraid that one-on-one teaching will not only control his bad temper.
So I decided to choose the teaching location in the swimming pool, so that the little kid would not be tempted to beat him. Seeing the various behaviors of some adults and some children nearby, I can feel more balanced and hold back my temper.
"Hey, put on your sunhat and your little camera. Is it heavy?" You must take pictures when you come to the aquarium. Today, the two of them were dressed like father and son photographers, one with a camera.
If the temperature is lower, it will feel better to wear a small felt hat and overalls. Because the photos taken need to be developed later.
Yang Dongxu plans to take his son to develop photos tomorrow weekend to kill the day. So the little guy’s camera is very professionally equipped and has a heavy lens. It’s not a small camera for children.
"Okay, dad will be standing next to the big whale later, and I want to take pictures of dad." Xiao Wenchen said, holding up the camera in his hand.
This is an absolutely high-end memory card in a digital camera, so you can take photos of Yang Dongxu without fear of wasting your son's paper.
When you go back to select photos on your computer, you can simply delete the ones that don’t look good, save trouble and save resources.
"Okay, in addition to whales, I also want to take photos with sea lions and seals." Yang Dongxu was carrying a backpack with water and some snacks in it.
Nowadays, no matter whether you enter an amusement park or an aquarium, no one will check whether you have brought extra water or extra in your backpack. You must consume it in the park.
Just follow the instructions and don't feed snacks and drinks to an animal without permission.
Wu Sheng and several people in plain clothes hid in the crowd and followed him. Yang Dongxu originally asked Zhou Ya to take Wu Sheng to teach. This guy seems to have been afraid of each other some time ago. This time he said nothing and had no choice but to take them with him.
"Is there a polar park? If you don't develop photos tomorrow, you can bring your down jacket and go to the polar park to have a look. It should be quite nice to go to the polar park in the summer." Holding Wen Chen's little hand, he came to the navigation map and planned his own visit. route. Seeing the extremely low park above, Yang Dongxu became interested.
"What is a polar park dad?" Xiao Wenchen always asked when he was curious and didn't understand anything.
This is very good. If you don’t understand something, just ask, and the child will be more cheerful and lively.
"It's a place where there are polar animals, such as penguins and polar bears. These animals live in the ice and snow, so if the zoo wants to bring them here to raise them, it has to build a house in the ice and snow for them."
"Is there any snow in the ice and snow?"
“They say it’s freezing and snowing, how can there be no snow?”
"Then I'm going to go skiing." Xiao Wenchen quickly raised his hand and said. In summer, everyone thinks about winter, just like shivering in winter and thinking about summer.
"The ice and snow are prepared for those polar animals, not for you to ski. It doesn't say there is an indoor ski resort, and I don't know if there is one elsewhere in the Magic City.
I'll ask someone when I get back. If there is one, I can take you skiing tomorrow. It will definitely feel good to go skiing in the summer. "
Yang Dongxu touched his son's head and said, "Okay, let's start from this venue. Then we can walk around along this route and then we can find a place to have lunch."
