Capítulo 913: Chapter 913: Curiosity
Kang Li responded with a “hmm.”
Ming Han: “Is the train like a long dragon? Will it run really fast?”
Kang Li: “You’ll feel it once the train gets fully running.”
These days, the train speed is around fifty to sixty kilometers per hour; if it’s fast, it might reach eighty kilometers per hour. In any case, it can’t compare with the speed of modern trains.
But with the development of technology and progress of the times, everything is just a matter of time.
Ming Han: “Mom, when will we get off the train and arrive at Grandma’s house?”
Kang Li: “We’ll take the train for three days, then switch to a car; we should reach Grandma’s house by the fourth day.”
“Thanks, Mom, I got it!”
Ming Han looked out the train window with a smile, watching the pristine snowflakes dance, his little face showing a captivated expression.
Seeing the little guy like that, Kang Li couldn’t help but find it amusing, but she refrained from laughing out loud to save face for her son.
“Woo… clatter! clatter! woo…”
Ming Han was very excited, leaning against the window, listening to the sound of the train starting up, imitating the train whistle and movement noises with his mouth. Ming Wei, seeing this, joined him, pressing close to her brother Ming Han, and looked out the window together.
“Second brother, you’re so noisy!”
“Nyaa nyaa nyaa…”
“Annoying!”
“Nyaa nyaa nyaa…”
Ming Han made a funny face at his sister, proudly saying, “I’m imitating the train sounds. If you don’t want to hear it, just cover your ears.”
“But you’ve been doing it for quite a while; if you keep going, it’s not just bothering me.”
Ming Wei reasoned with her brother Ming Han.
“Grandma, Dad, Mom, and our big brother didn’t say anything to me, but you keep giving me trouble, Luo Mingwei. You’re not being cute at all.”
His little face tense, Ming Han was clearly a bit upset and said, “If you don’t want to be bothersome, you’d better stop picking on me.”
“You’re the bothersome one, hmph!”
Ming Wei glared at her brother Ming Han and turned away to complain to Kang Li: “Mom, tell my second brother to stop imitating train sounds. It’s really annoying!”
Kang Li chuckled: “Your second brother is just curious. Once he starts finding it boring, he’ll naturally stop.”
“Mom, are you siding with my second brother?”
Blinking her bright, watery eyes, Ming Wei looked visibly aggrieved. Seeing this, Kang Li shook her head, speaking with helplessness: “No, Mom’s not siding with your second brother. I’m just telling you,
Once your second brother’s curiosity is satisfied, he’ll settle down. Otherwise, if I forcibly stop him now, he’ll definitely be unhappy and feel regretful. Are you sure you want that?
Besides, your second brother hasn’t been continually imitating the train. Isn’t that right? Sweetie, why don’t you read a storybook, or play Five-in-a-Row with your big brother, and ignore your second brother? Let’s let him play by himself.”
After soothing the little girl, Kang Li turned her attention to Ming Han: “Is it fun?” she asked with a smile.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah.”
Ming Han nodded his little head with a smile: “A lot of kids in my class have ridden on the train; they were really proud, saying that taking the train was absolutely awesome. They laughed at me when I said I hadn’t ridden on one. But now, it’s fine; I finally got to ride a train. Just wait until I see them again, let’s see if they still laugh at me!”
After hearing the little guy’s words, Kang Li only then realized there was this reason behind it. Her beautiful eyes twinkled with laughter, her gaze exceptionally tender and doting: “Our Hanhan never rode the train before because there was no need, there’s nothing to be laughed at for that.
