Chapter 420
Along the way, the two little ones curiously examined everything in the outside world.
Here, the buildings were completely different from those on the Sea Island.
There were neon lights, movie posters, glass windows, and buildings over ten stories high.
Many strangers rode bicycles through the streets and roads, wearing unrestrained smiles, their hair dancing in the air.
Shen Man watched, feeling that people's hair nowadays was really thick.
Not at all like in later generations, where there were piles of high-end shampoos and body washes, but people's hair got thinner and balder the more they washed it.
The car drove for who knows how long. When they passed a stretch of phoenix trees, the children cheered happily—
"Mommy, pretty, pretty."
The phoenix trees were dyed with golden leaves at this time, and the ground was covered with a thick layer. The sanitation workers had been working very hard to sweep, but the speed at which the endless leaves fell was just too fast.
When the wind blew, they were everywhere.
"Alright, alright, stop shouting. When we arrive, we'll line up to buy tickets to visit the memorial hall to see the great man's portrait, so you can recognize what our most respected Chairman Grandpa looks like..."
Shen Man held the two children's hands tightly, afraid that the two little ones would press something inside the car window, roll it down, and lean out of the car.
"Who is Chairman Grandpa?"
Xiao Mantou's eyes were full of confusion. He knew Zuzu and other grandpas, but who was Chairman Grandpa?
"Chairman Grandpa, he was a very kind old man. He also liked to eat braised pork."
Shen Man introduced the old man with a tone full of respect. If it weren't for that old man, who knows when China would have ushered in a peaceful and prosperous age.
No matter how much time passes, that old man and the founding fathers deserve to be revered by future generations; their contributions to China are meritorious for all ages.
Compared to some traffic stars and singers who easily collapse, or the deadbeats and black second-generation who come to the entertainment industry to make money, there is absolutely no comparison!
If it weren't for the country sealing their files to protect the safety of the children and relatives of the great men and meritorious officials, some people wouldn't even be relevant!
Shen Man didn't care about others, but for her children, education starts from a young age: be upright and honest, don't be addicted to chasing stars, don't touch the red line of the law, and don't seek personal gain through power!
She didn't ask for them to be rich and noble, just that they be people who are not harmful to the country, don't hold the country back, and be legal taxpayers.
Of course, if the children have potential and are willing to join the army to serve the motherland, she and A-Ye will support them.
While her thoughts were drifting, the car had already stopped in the parking lot.
Jiang Ye unbuckled his seatbelt, turned off the engine, and put the key in his pocket.
"Alright, we're here. I'll go buy tickets."
At the Chairman Memorial Hall, during the National Day holiday, it was almost always a sea of people.
People from all over the country who had holidays spontaneously came to pay their respects to the Chairman.
The number of people received here every day started in the hundreds of thousands.
On-site, there were not only security personnel maintaining order but also armed police and special police with extraordinary combat power.
The public security department also arranged plainclothes officers to provide support at any time.
The moment Jiang Ye got out of the car, he noticed professional snipers on guard in several directions.
At the same time, his appearance also attracted the attention of some special police from the military.
Because their temperaments were similar, they nodded slightly after looking at each other, and both sides looked away.
Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Mantou were already shocked by the towering building, and with the crowd all around, they subconsciously hugged their mother's arm tightly, waiting for their father to return.
Mommy and Daddy didn't lie to them; there were so many people here today. They must hold onto Mommy and Daddy's arms and necks tightly and never get separated!
Because the two children were not yet three years old, after the ticket seller clarified the situation, they only let Jiang Ye buy two adult tickets; children were free of charge.
After buying the tickets, Jiang Ye quickly returned to the car to pick up his wife and children.
For the half-day tour of the Chairman Memorial Hall, he symbolically carried a backpack on his back, which contained the children's milk powder, bottles, and several rolls of film.
Jiang Ye originally wanted to hold both children in his arms, but was refused by his wife.
"We'll hold one each. I'll hold Xiao Nuomi; she's a bit lighter than our son. If you hold them both, you'll be exhausted. You still have to take pictures for the three of us."
Shen Man wasn't entirely feeling sorry for her man; it was just that holding one each would reduce a lot of trouble.
They weren't porcelain dolls; they couldn't carry things on their shoulders or lift things with their hands, and they had no strength at all.
Hearing his wife say this, Jiang Ye didn't struggle anymore, smiling as he lifted his son over his head, letting him sit on his shoulders.
"Daddy, I want to sit up high later too."
Xiao Nuomi's eyes lit up, but she wasn't the type to make things difficult for her mother.
Mommy holding her was already very hard work; she just wanted to wait until her brother had played enough and then swap places with him.
"Alright."
Hearing his daughter's words, Jiang Ye pinched her cheek with a loving father's smile.
His originally cold and handsome temperament instantly melted like ice and snow, making people unable to help but look a few more times.
Of course, they could only look a few more times.
Because the female onlookers all discovered that the man already had a wife and children; they were a talented and beautiful couple, and they could only be envious.
Jiang Ye adjusted the camera hanging around his neck, supporting the child's knees with both hands, looking like a good husband and a good father.
Up close, his tall figure and sturdy, powerful muscles gave people a sense of reliability and strength.
And Shen Man, who was holding her daughter beside him, was very outstanding in appearance, possessing the charm and allure of a mature beauty. Her gentle expression while speaking made it hard for people to forget her once they saw her.
Such a couple with outstanding looks stood out from the crowd while waiting in line, creating a small empty space around them.
Adults and children in front, behind, left, and right were all secretly sizing them up, wondering if they were movie stars.
Were there cameras around?
Were they filming a movie?
Facts proved that they were overthinking; they were just an ordinary family of four visiting the Chairman Memorial Hall.
Professional staff were explaining the items the Chairman used during his lifetime and the documents he signed, talking endlessly.
The tourists were all listening with great interest. Even the children, in this solemn and respectful atmosphere, didn't make loud noises, let alone cry or fuss.
Xiao Nuomi nestled in her mother's chest, looking towards Chairman Grandpa from time to time.
Such rich golden color; this was the first time she felt a very intimate warmth.
Suddenly, she saw the warmth floating and floating, floating right in front of her.
A gentle warmth smoothed the stray hair on her head, making her feel so comfortable she wanted to sleep.
So warm, just like the kindness of her Zuzus towards her.
