Chapter 93:
Speaking of which, the four members of the Ying family have never traveled together.
Ying Shunchen and Liang Wen have traveled almost everywhere due to work reasons. The two children in the family, one in junior high school and the other in elementary school, are under a lot of pressure to study. They also spend their winter and summer vacations in various cram schools and interest classes, so they don’t have much time to travel. .
Ying Shunchen and Liang Wen discussed the family taking time out to have a good time. Ying Jingrui agreed with both hands and feet, and her younger sister Ying Jingxue just went to elementary school and is already a serious home girl, so she doesn't want to go out anyway.
Ying Jingrui, who still knew her sister best, suggested: "You don't want to see the maple leaves in Kyoto, Japan the most. The maple leaf season will be in a few days. Your dream will come true soon."
Ying Jingxue's eyes lit up immediately, "Okay! I'll go, I'll go!"
Thus, a family of four trips were put on the agenda.
The task of Ying Shunchen and Liang Wen is to arrange the itinerary and set aside a week of spare time. The task of the two sisters is very simple, just ask the teacher for leave in a handsome manner.
Ying Jingxue, who was oppressed by homework every day and couldn't hold her head up, was the happiest. She secretly said to her sister, "The reason why I didn't say I wanted to travel was because my parents thought I was going to be lazy. Hehe."
Ying Jingrui looked at Xue Bao, "When you come back from your trip, the squeezing homework will be waiting for you."
Ying Jingxue let out a cry, thought for a long time with a mournful face, and said, "I'll be sad tomorrow, don't worry about it."
Ying Jingrui couldn't laugh or cry.
Others' family went out for a trip, walked and played freely, and the four members of the Ying family had three faces that would be recognized when they went out, so naturally they couldn't report to the tour group, which was suitable for quiet and free travel.
The travel destination this time was suggested by Jing Xue, and she was in charge of the schedule. Go left to help buy air tickets and book hotels.
After everything was arranged, the sweet trip of a family of four began.
Fly directly from Beijing to Osaka, and stay at a local golf hot spring hotel that night.
The hot spring hotel chosen by Ying Jingxue has a special airport pick-up service, so it saves a lot of taxi fees. After all, the cost of calling in Japan is very expensive, so it is better not to take it lightly under normal circumstances.
Japanese hot spring hotels are very different from domestic hot spring hotels. There are so many hot springs in domestic hot spring hotels, such as milk hot springs, red wine hot springs, petal hot springs, etc. As for the curative effect of these themed hot spring pools, no one has studied them deeply, and there is no guarantee. Japanese hot spring hotels pay more attention to the quiet and comfortable environment and targeted hot spring curative effect, containing sulfur, radon, and various trace elements, which are very effective for people with infirmity, arthritis or heart and respiratory diseases.
Of course, the four members of the Ying family came to experience the unique hot spring culture in Japan. For those who want to treat chronic diseases through hot springs, they still need long-term treatment in the right season to be effective.
Coming out of the airport, the sky in early winter in Japan is blue and the water is wide, and there is a coolness in the air.
Looking along the way, the low-rise houses, clean courtyards, and mini family cars are all novelty.
The car drove out of Osaka Castle and headed for the mountains in the suburbs. Gradually, there is a little red on the hillside, like a colorful landscape painting with splashed ink, it is so beautiful.
It is close to the city, the temperature is relatively high, and the maple leaves are not yet fully red. But this already made Ying Jingxue cry out happily.
"Look! It's already red!"
Ying Jingrui raised his camera to take pictures and said with a smile, "If I come a few days later, it will be more beautiful."
Liang Wen said apologetically, "It's all my parents' fault. I really can't arrange work."
Ying Jingxue quickly shook her head, "Mom, it's not good to have some regrets. Next time we will come here again."
Ying Jingrui groaned, and put his arms around his sister, "My Xuebao is a warm baby. What you said is so sweet."
Ying Shunchen paused, "Xue Bao, going out to play is much more fun than studying at home."
Ying Jingrui glared at her father who ruthlessly exposed Ying Jingxue's true thoughts.
Ying Jingxue groaned, "Mom, look at Dad. He finally came out to play and provoked me with words. Didn't you say that it doesn't matter if you don't study well, as long as you work hard."
Liang Wen gestured and patted Ying Shunchen, "That's right. Well, you spoil the atmosphere."
Ying Shunchen: "..." As soon as I said a word, I was despised by the whole family.
When we arrived at the hotel, everyone quietly checked into a Japanese-style courtyard. Separated from the standard space where group tourists usually live, the courtyard of the Ying family of four is small and exquisite, with the charm of a Japanese garden.
The sisters from the Ying family were shocked when they entered. The two took off their shoes and ran around on the mat in white socks. The small courtyard corridor with wooden structure circles, and there is a quiet and beautiful small garden in the middle. There happened to be a tall maple tree growing at an oblique corner. No matter where you look at it, the red charm of the maple tree can be seen in the scene.
After Ying Shunchen put away his luggage, he took Liang Wen's hand and sat down under the eaves. The two of them leaned shoulder to shoulder, watching the two precious girls playing wildly in comfort.
Liang Wen: "It's time to take them out to play."
Ying Shunchen: "Especially Xuebao. I spend too little time with her."
"You, who claim to be an expert in parenting, should also know how to teach students according to their aptitude. Xuebao is lazy by nature and is a child who doesn't like to use his brain. You should talk about other ways instead of staring at her when you see her. Even Guo Shu told me I have said several times that you are partial to my sister."
Ying Shunchen was educated by Liang Wen, so he didn't dare to quibble, and said in a low voice: "I have absolutely no partiality. I hate iron but not steel."
Liang Wen: "No matter what Xuebao does, she is forced to compare with her sister. She is under a lot of pressure."
Ying Shunchen watched Ying Jingxue playing hide-and-seek with her sister heartlessly, smiling innocently, and sighed.
In the evening, order food from the restaurant and eat in the room. There are three or four small and beautiful plates with a few slices of beef, sushi, and two small fish, and a small hot pot in the middle is gurgling hot. The food here looks simple and tastes just enough. People here are very particular about diet, overeating and drinking are not recommended, and the set meal is only enough for one person to eat seven or eight full. I didn't get used to it at first, but after eating for a few days, I found that my body was very comfortable, and I would be hungry when it was time to eat, and my eating pattern was very good.
After eating and resting for an hour, the four of them put on kimonos and went to the hot springs.
The hot spring pool is in the corner of the courtyard, with good privacy. There are separate pools for men and women, each with its own entrance.
The bubble pool is not big, hidden among the pines and cypresses of the rockery, and there is even a projection of the maple trees in the courtyard.
Liang Wen led Ruibao and Xuebao into the lady's entrance.
Ying Shunchen entered through the men's entrance.
The family started a super happy trip to the hot springs across the rockery.
Ying Jingrui and Ying Jingxue were two beautiful little girls, their faces were red from the steaming hot spring. Liang Wen looked at them with a doting smile from her old mother.
Ying Jingrui couldn't help pinching his younger sister's face, and said strangely: "Xue Bao, why are you so white, I can't compare to a child like you who doesn't wear sunscreen every day."
Ying Jingxue groaned, "Sister, I'm just pale, there's really no other advantages."
Liang Wen glared at her, "What did mother tell you? You have to discover the advantages by yourself, don't give up on yourself at every turn."
Ying Jingxue pouted, "I know."
A voice came from the other side of the pool, "Xue Bao, Dad loves you!"
Ying Jingxue: "...Dad, you are so disgusting. I am different from my mother. I can't stand you saying I love you every day."
After speaking, I hugged my sister and giggled together.
Liang Wen blushed from the embarrassment of her two daughters, and immediately pretended to pat Ying Jingxue's arm, "Stinky girl!"
Ying Shunchen's voice came again: "Xue Bao, you are the best!"
Ying Jingxue shook off her goosebumps and whispered, "Mom, what's wrong with Dad? He's so nice to me all of a sudden, it's hard to get used to it."
Liang Wen lowered her voice: "Your father has always been very kind to you."
Ying Jingxue snorted, "If I fail in the final exam this time, Dad can still tell me that I love you, and it will be considered that he loves me."
Liang Wen: "First, you can no longer take the bottom one in the final exam. Even if you improve by one, your father and I will be proud of you. Second, whether you take the bottom one or the bottom two, your father and I will be proud of you." , and your sister will love you very much."
Ying Jingxue shrugged, "Okay. Then I'll work hard and strive to get second to last in the final exam."
Ying Shunchen, who heard Ying Jingxue's answer next door, smiled helplessly. I really don't know who followed this child's casual Buddhism.
Soaking in hot springs should not take too long, ten to twenty minutes is enough. Take a short break and continue soaking for a while. It depends on the individual's physical condition.
Ying Jingxue was impatient with soaking and was afraid of heat, so she only got into it for a while and then yelled to come out.
After changing their clothes, the four of them went back to the room to play cards and games.
Soon it was another activity to crush Jingxue's IQ. It was obviously born by a mother, even if she had a good card, she couldn't beat her sister.
Ying Jingrui took into account his sister's mood, shouted how tired he was, and ended the card game.
The two sisters returned to the room, Ying Jingxue was still very excited, unwilling to go to bed, clamoring to go out for a stroll.
Ying Jingrui had no choice but to get dressed, put on a hat and mask, and sneak out with her sister.
When the hot spring hotel arrived in the middle of the night, there were almost no people. The two little girls sneaked out, strolled around the hotel garden, and then went back to the lobby.
Ying Jingxue couldn't move when she saw the pool table, so she took her sister to play pool together.
Ying Jingrui looked at his younger sister skillfully picking up the pole, posing in a rather old-fashioned pose, and asked, "Xue Bao, where did you learn it?"
Ying Jingxue sneered, "Just...online."
Ying Jingrui picked up another stick, "It's fine if you lie to your parents, but you don't even tell the truth to your sister?"
Ying Jingxue pouted: "I just went out to the billiard hall with my classmates and played once."
Speaking of this, she became excited, "Sister, you don't know. As soon as I touched the pool cue, I felt like a godsend. He said that I played better than ordinary people."
Ying Jingrui keenly captured a message, "He? Who is he?"
Ying Jingxue quickly covered her mouth and begged for mercy, "Sister, you must not tell Mom and Dad, or I will die."
Ying Jingrui snorted, "Then tell me honestly. You have a driver at home to pick you up and drop you off from school. When will you go to the pool hall? And who the **** is he?"
Ying Jingxue saw that her sister's face was not good-looking, so she had no choice but to make it clear, "Just last time. I told my mother that there was an event at school and we would be late for two hours. I lied to my mother. He is from the class next to me. classmate…"
"Boys?"
Ying Jingxue nodded, "Boy!"
"Handsome?" Ying Jingrui gasped, "Better than Dad? Can you tell a lie and run out of the pool hall?"
