Dabao: Hello, uncle!
Jinyu: What are you doing at home?
Dabao: I’m doing my homework.
Jinyu: Very good. Dabao sets an example for his younger brother. Where is Xiaobao?
Yuanyuan: I’m taking a nap in my room. I like to sleep when I’m tired from playing.
Jin Yu: Children grow longer when they sleep, so getting enough sleep is essential.
Dabao: Are uncle and dad coming for a walk?
Jinyu: I was walking by and had a look.
Yuanyuan: Dabao makes tea for his uncle and dad.
Jinyu: No need to make tea, just sit down and leave. After taking online classes, come out and walk around. Does Dabao have a lot of homework?
Yuanyuan: In the third grade of elementary school, there is not much homework. The teacher advocates extracurricular reading, so he bought some fairy tale books for Dabao and listened to some stories in the evening.
Jin Yu: The teacher is thoughtful and advocates extracurricular reading. Reading more paper books is helpful for physical and mental health. Reading more extracurricular books is helpful for writing essays.
Yuanyuan: Dabao, remember it. Develop a reading habit

Habits can not only enrich your life, but also get twice the result with half the effort, and the benefits will continue to emerge.
Dabao: Will your composition become smoother if you write something about listening and reading every day?
Jin Yu: That’s perfect, it’s like the icing on the cake. When you’re tired from studying, you go out to play. It’s not advisable to stay at home all day. Playing is also learning.
Dabao: How can playing also be learning?
Jin Yu: Playing can use your brain and make your brain more flexible. Playing with your friends can also cultivate your collaborative skills and practice your communication and speaking, and the benefits are constantly emerging.
Yuanyuan: Learn while playing, the key is to be able to play. Learn while playing, and keep safety in mind.
Jin Yu: Those who know how to play will learn, and those who know how to learn will play. If you balance both, there are many benefits. Your body and mind will develop greatly, and your happiness will last forever. - It’s getting late, so I’m going for a hike.
Dabao: Uncle, please be safe on the road.
Yuanyuan: Brother-in-law, walk slowly.

Jin Yu: From Maoling Jiayuan, we crossed to Maoqing Road. We returned east along Yongjin Road, which was under construction. As we walked, guess what I suddenly saw?
Huilan: I've never been there, so how would I know? It can't be a wild boar.
Jin Yu: Wild boars are not so bold and dare to cross several roads. It seems like they are "sleepwalking". How can the landscape change? There is a mountain ridge in front of me, blocking my way. I have to go back the same way, along Maoqing
The road went south and detoured to Nitri North Road.
Hui Lan: It’s a big detour, so I’m not tired of you.
Jin Yu: Hiking is not tiring, but I kept wondering on the way: "How come there are mountains? They have been "bridged" obviously? Could it be that there was an 'earthquake' within a few hundred meters of the radius, which resulted in changes in the landform? No
, I will finish the online class tomorrow afternoon and then go check it out on site."
Hui Lan: I am really "sleepwalking",
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Where did the "earthquake" come from?
Jin Yu: I don’t believe it either. How come it didn’t work? I went there once in January and it was obviously clear. Why did it change when I went again in April? Anyway, fortunately, on the way back, I stopped at Nitri North Road.
Near the intersection of Jixian North Road and near the Fenghuang Village Neighborhood Committee, another urban node park was discovered.
Huilan: Is the park big?
Jin Yu: The area is not big. It’s compact. As long as it has trees and flowers, it doesn’t matter how big it is.
Hui Lan: In recent years, urban development has always found opportunities to green the idle land, adding a touch of bright color, which feels quite good.
Jin Yu: I have witnessed the layout of urban green space: green space is visible at 300 meters, and gardens are built at 500 meters. Gardens make the city better. I will go to see it tomorrow afternoon.
Hui Lan: Turn off the router, wash up and go to bed.

Jin Yu: No need to check on the spot anymore, I suddenly figured it out before going to bed.
Huilan: What do you want to understand?
Jinyu: On the section of Yongjin Road between Maoqing Road and Jixian North Road, there is a low valley in the middle, and a section of railway track passes through it. In January, we hiked from Shili Dagou to the east of the railway track.
On the other side, that section has been built up to Jixian North Road. I forgot that construction is also being done on the other side of the mountain. I heard that a bridge will be built to connect the east and west.
Hui Lan: It’s just hearsay again, but I can’t believe it to be true.
Jin Yu: I didn’t take it seriously. Once the whole line was completed, I understood everything. It turned out that it was not sleepwalking, nor was it a change in the landform. I was short-circuited and forgot about the east and west sections. Today I walked the west section, and last time I walked
In the eastern section, there is a mountain range separating the east and west sections. This is not surprising.
Hui Lan: Where do you plan to go next?
Jin Yu: No more on-the-spot inspections, but going to the Rose Garden instead.
