I listened to my sister's words today.

Jiang Ling took the little one to play on the beach. The sand under their feet sparkled in the sun, as if each one was a tiny gem.

The little one jumped around, laughter filling the air, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, exploring every corner.

However, after a while, Yun Yiruo's attention was attracted by a tall object in the distance.

"Sister! Look at that, it's so high!"

Yun Yiruo's voice was filled with excitement as he pointed to a towering structure in the distance, his eyes gleaming with curiosity.

"Shall we go sit down?"

Jiang Ling looked up and saw that it was the light rail station not far away, leading to the opposite island.

"But it's almost noon now. Can we go play in the afternoon?"

Jiang Ling advised gently, trying to delay it as much as possible, after all, the sun was shining brightly at this time.

"No, no~" The little guy waved his hands, anxious like a windmill.

"Why don't we just sit for a while? Go to the island across the street, and then come back."

Jiang Ling looked at him helplessly, with some doting in her eyes, and finally she could only agree to the little guy's request.

"Okay, okay, let's go."

The little guy pulled her clothes and she couldn't wait to walk towards the light rail station.

It's not far from the light rail station, just at the fork in the road opposite the beach.

Along the way, the surroundings were silent. There were not many people on the beach, and even the shouts of vendors were almost inaudible. The surrounding scene seemed particularly empty, as if there were only the two of them in the whole world.

When they arrived at the light rail station, Yun Yiru was a little surprised by the scene before them.

The architectural design of the station is futuristic, simple and modern, with streamlined lights radiating from all sides and reflecting on the platform.

There are almost no staff at the site, and all operations can be completed through self-service equipment.

When they walked into the station, they found that there were no common facilities such as security checks. The space was not large, but it seemed spacious because of the clever design. After entering, they could see the railway tracks with almost no one walking on them.

Yun Yiruo's excitement did not diminish at all. He looked around quickly without even thinking of stopping.

Yun Yiru was completely attracted by everything in front of her, and the world in her eyes was always new and novel.

Jiang Ling carefully held her, fearing she might accidentally run onto the tracks. That innocent impulse often made her heart beat faster.

Soon after, the sound of the light rail arriving at the station was heard in the distance. The light rail stopped steadily at the designated position and the door slowly opened.

The two followed the crowd into the carriage. There were not many people inside, and the carriage seemed empty and quiet.

However, when the people in the carriage saw them coming in, they all silently made way to the sides, as if they had automatically made a large space for them.

After the doors were closed, the people in the carriage walked to both sides, and the entire carriage was silently separated by two "empty belts".

However, Yun Yiruo was completely unaware of the actions of the people in the car, as her eyes had already been attracted by the beautiful scenery outside the window.

My eyes were fixed on the window, and the scenery outside kept changing as the light rail moved forward.

Ahead is a magnificent sea view, the sun shines on the sea, creating waves of golden light.

Outside the window at the back is an island far away from the hustle and bustle. The island is shaded by green trees and the outlines of several buildings can be vaguely seen, as if it is a perfect fusion of humans and nature.

The little guy excitedly stepped on his sister's legs, supported his hands on the glass, stood on tiptoe and tried to raise his head, hoping to see farther.

His face was full of curiosity, his eyes were wide open, and he seemed no longer satisfied with the scenery before him.

"Wow! Sister, is that a whale?"

Yun Yiruo's eyes widened, and she could hardly believe what she saw.

The huge figure floated steadily on the sea like a mountain on the sea.

The gray-blue skin on the whale's back shone slightly in the sun, and its broad dorsal fin cut through the water like a knife.

The huge column of water spewed out from the whale, accompanied by gusts of sea breeze, instantly rushed into the blue sky. Under the sunlight, the water droplets actually reflected a colorful rainbow!

"so big!"

Yun Yiruo widened her eyes, her voice filled with amazement and disbelief, as if this behemoth had walked out of a distant fairy tale world.

"But why don't they have teeth?"

He tilted his little head and asked curiously.

"Because they are baleen whales."

Jiang Ling gently picked up the little guy and placed him safely on her lap.

He rubbed the little guy's curved ear with one hand and pointed to the whale spraying water outside the window with the other hand, patiently explaining science to him.

"These whales, they eat very differently than we do."

"You see, when a whale opens its mouth, there's a special structure inside called 'baleen plates'."

Watching the whale open its mouth wide, its yellow-orange baleen plates were faintly visible in the sunlight.

"The baleen plates act like a natural filter, filtering food through them."

"So when they open their mouths to eat fish, do they swallow the seawater as well?"

"Yes, the whale swallows not only fish, but also a lot of sea water."

"But you see, their baleen plates act like a fine sieve, filtering out the seawater and leaving only the food."

"Moreover, many of the technologies and facilities humans use now imitate the design of whale baleen plates to filter and clean water."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the whale spouting a higher column of water, as if responding to her explanation.

The water column sparkled in the air, like a giant of the sea announcing its presence.

As soon as the little guy asked a question, Jiang Ling would respond immediately without any delay.

This interaction is part of the little one's growth and a window into the world.

Because Jiang Ling always believed in the saying "Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles."

The knowledge in books may be extensive, but if you don’t experience and practice it yourself, those words will always be just empty symbols memorized by rote.

Besides, the little guy's personality is not suitable for staying in school. Those restrictive rules and rigid classroom explanations.

It may make the little one feel boring, and it is impossible to force the little one to accept things that she is not interested in.

Even though the little guy promised her that he would only focus on studying in school and not do anything unrelated to studying, Jiang Ling still firmly rejected his request for admission.

So, Jiang Ling found another way to satisfy the little guy's curiosity.

In the future, I will take her to travel around whenever I have time.

Deep in the vast mountains, in the bustling markets, in the quiet forests.

Although Jiang Ling is not an omniscient expert, his knowledge is just a drop in the ocean.

But as long as it can provide guidance and inspiration to the little ones, it is enough.

The purpose is not to tell her all the answers, but to teach her how to ask questions and how to think through limited knowledge and experience, and ultimately let her embark on her own path of independent exploration.

In Jiang Ling's understanding, the transmission of knowledge is not just to fill the brain, nor is it to kill the joy of learning just for the sake of learning something.

In this case, one will only feel disgusted with learning and will not have a heart that pursues the truth.
