Chapter 418 - 31: Visiting_2
The next day, Shen Chi and Lin Xiaoguai got ready to head for Gulangyu. To ensure they could enjoy themselves to the fullest, they had made a point of booking a room at a hotel on the island.
The two first visited Shuzhuang Garden on Gulangyu. Once there, Lin Xiaoguai naturally didn’t want to miss the famous Canghai Garden. The garden, perched above the sea, elegantly blended delicate beauty with grandeur, captivating Lin Xiaoguai as she looked on, her lips occasionally uttering words of admiration.
"It would be so nice if Sisi and the others were here; we could take a family photo," Lin Xiaoguai sighed, just after asking a tourist to take a picture of them.
Shen Chi didn’t feel like talking anymore. He thought that Wanwan’s obsession with her children definitely needed to be addressed, or would there be any room left for him at home in the future?
Over the following days, they visited other famous sites including Sunshine Rock, Haoyue Garden, Yu Garden, Gulang Stone, Ancient Summer Cave, Dragon Head Mountain Village, and the Zheng Chenggong Memorial Hall, and she didn’t feel tired after more than ten days. To her regret, there were no organ or piano museums on Gulangyu, or else she could have had the pleasure of visiting them too.
"Shen Chi, how about we send Sisi and Qiaoqiao to learn a musical instrument when they grow up?" Lin Xiaoguai suggested.
The thing is, despite all her apparent skills and seemingly being very capable, Lin Xiaoguai had a very clear weakness; she couldn’t play any musical instrument. Whether it was whistling as a kid or learning the harmonica or erhu, she never managed to pick up any.
—She was the kind of person who just couldn’t get the hang of musical notes on an instrument.
