Spring River Chasing the Moon

Chapter 15 Beautiful Morning

Chen Lili and Luo Zhong were very surprised when they heard this.

To them, Luo Youyou had changed so much. Before today, their daughter had never been interested in painting, nor had she shown any admiration for Chen Ze. How could there be such a sudden reversal?

Luo Youyou was afraid that her parents would not believe her, so she suddenly got up from the bed without even putting on her slippers and took out the painting she brought today from the desk.

Luo Zhong and Chen Lili remembered that this was a mysterious gift that Luo Youyou wanted to give to Chen Ze. They knew it was a painting, but they didn't know what was painted inside.

It was not until Luo Youyou sat back on the bed and spread out the drawing paper that what caught his eye was a house, the house they lived in at the moment.

Luo Youyou uses simple pencil sketches and lines to depict the scene, yet he captures all the details.

Luo Zhong didn't know much about art. He just thought that his daughter's paintings were all beautiful. But Chen Lili was different. She had been influenced by her parents since she was a child and she understood very well what this painting meant to a child who had never learned to paint.

"Yes, did you draw this?" Chen Lili was a little bit unbelieving.

"Yes, I like this place very much, so I want to draw it so that I can preserve it forever." Luo Youyou replied.

"Mom, is my drawing good? Will Grandpa like it?"

Chen Lili looked at Luo Youyou and felt deeply moved.

"Maybe it's really blood and genetics. Although she also likes Chinese painting, she loves calligraphy more and rarely picks up a brush to paint. I didn't expect my daughter to have such talent."

Chen Lili put away the drawing paper for Luo Youyou and carefully placed it on the bedside. She suppressed her joy and didn't answer. She just smiled and said, "Okay, it's a little late today. Let's go to bed first and give your grandfather a surprise tomorrow, okay?"

When Luo Youyou heard Chen Lili say it was a surprise, she knew that the gift was right.

She was actually very conflicted when she was drawing. After all, she was a mature architectural designer in her previous life, and she was considering whether or not to show her abilities.

She is five years old now and has never learned to paint. This will definitely attract the attention of adults. In addition, Yang Qian has no painting tools at all. Everything she needs for this painting was borrowed from Luo Luo.

So in the end, she chose to hide it and just showed a little bit to show that she had talent.

Revealing too much at once would make the road ahead difficult. It's not easy to be a genius. Although she has talent, she may not be a genius. In her previous life, design was just a tool for her to make a living.

Early the next morning, Luo Youyou woke up when it was just getting light.

Looking at the different furnishings in the room, Luo Youyou was stunned for a while before he remembered that he was already living in his grandfather's house.

Her parents were still half asleep. She climbed out of bed quietly, stood in front of the window, then sat on the chair by the window, leaning back and looking at the scenery outside.

Although it was just daybreak, there were already quite a few people outside. Some were carrying baskets to the market, some were walking their children, and some were driving chickens, ducks, and geese to the market to trade...

These things were something Luo Youyou had never experienced in two lifetimes. In her previous life, Yang Qian rarely took Luo Youyou to the market. Before she went to middle school, she rarely left the village.

At that time, Luo Youyou's world was very small. She would only be taken to the town by her parents on weekends, but the opportunities were rare because her parents were too busy.

In addition, Yang Qian always lied to Luo Zhong and others, telling them that she would often take Luo Youyou to the town to play, visiting the park today and the market tomorrow, so Luo Zhong and Chen Lili never worried about it.

At that time, all of Luo Youyou's ways of understanding the world seemed to be regulated, all in fixed places. There was no opportunity to expand outside, and he could not imagine it.

It was not until middle school that I had the opportunity to go to a private high school in the city because I did not perform well in the high school entrance examination and my parents spent a lot of their savings.

Most of the students in that school came from wealthy families. Luo Youyou discovered that the gap between herself and most of her classmates was caused by the difference in perspective from childhood to adulthood. She began to feel another emotion called inferiority.

He has an average personality, average academic performance, and an average undergraduate degree.

So later when I entered society, I had no confidence in myself no matter what I did, because the people I met were too outstanding and because I didn’t believe in myself.

"Today, I finally got out of that village."

Luo Youyou looked at everything outside the window, her little hands clenched tightly.

"She can't go back."

After a while, Luo Zhong and Chen Lili also woke up because of their biological clocks. When they saw that Luo Youyou was not in bed, they realized that their daughter had already gotten up and was sitting by the window looking outside, motionless.

"Yes, what are you looking at?"

Luo Zhong came to Luo Youyou and followed her direction to see the passers-by outside.

"I'm looking at the street outside. I've never seen so many people outside in the village. In the village at this time, only roosters are crowing, and there are no people around."

Luo Youyou looked up at Luo Zhong and couldn't help but act coquettishly, "Dad, can we go play on the street later? I heard from the children in the village that there is a very interesting park in town. I haven't been there yet, and I want to go and see it."

Luo Zhong was stunned. The park had been open for more than half a year. He had clearly asked his mother to take Youyou there when it first opened, and she agreed.

Luo Zhong came to his senses and now he had nothing to understand. His mother had deceived him again in this matter.

Seeing his daughter obediently waiting for his answer, Luo Zhong swallowed the discomfort in his heart, smiled and touched her head, "If you want to go, we will go."

"Yeah, then get ready, Mom, get up quickly, we are going to play."

Luo Youyou jumped onto the bed and pounced on Chen Lili, who had already woken up and opened her eyes, hugging her excitedly.

"I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth first."

After saying that, he went out to the bathroom.

Outside, Li Muzhi and Chen Ze got up early and had breakfast. Chen Ze was practicing Tai Chi in the yard, while Li Muzhi was sitting in a rocking chair beside him, rocking slowly and looking at Chen Ze.

Luo Youyou ran to the yard to greet them, "Grandpa and grandma, good morning."

Hearing Luo Youyou's voice, Chen Ze and Li Muzhi felt so soft in their hearts. They could see their little baby together, and they were so happy.

"Hey, my dear grandson, come to grandma quickly." Li Muzhi waved to Luo Youyou.

"Grandma, I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth first and then come back to accompany you."

Luo Youyou greeted her grandparents, then rushed to the bathroom and started washing up.

Li Muzhi had already prepared a toothbrush and a small stool suitable for her height in the bathroom.

In less than five minutes, Luo Youyou returned to the yard. Watching her grandfather practicing boxing, she stood behind Chen Ze and began to learn from him.

I was still silently reciting the mantra in my mind, "A big watermelon, cut in half with one knife, half for you, half for him..."

Seeing Luo Youyou's serious face, Chen Ze couldn't help but smile, feeling very proud. "She's worthy of being my granddaughter. She's learning quite well."

Luo Zhong and Chen Lili came out of the room and saw this scene, their hearts softened. This was a scene they had never seen before.
