Chapter 128 Sky
"Come, Isabella, repeat the three demands I emphasized to you."
Xia Zhihui stood at the door of the children's commune, looked at the group of little carrot heads, and called them by name.
Isabella repeated, standing at the front of the children, wearing her cleanest clothes.
"First, follow the team closely to prevent getting separated."
"Second, don't just eat what others give you."
"Third, if something happens, go to the Earth Fire and Silver Mane Iron Guards in the square."
Now is the day when Bronya holds the Grand Guardian succession ceremony, and it is also the first time for this group of children to go to the upper area.
When Xia Zhihui announced that all the children in the Children's Commune could go to the upper level area, their cheers almost broke the roof.
In order to prevent them from getting lost in the upper area, Xia Zhihui not only set three rules for them, but also took Gillian and Fishman with them to the upper area.
Natasha did not go to the clinic today, but went directly downstairs to wait for them. They went to the cafeteria to have breakfast together and then set off.
When we arrived at the cable car station in Panyan Town, the old man at the cable car station was more excited than the children.
"I have been away from here for more than ten years. Thinking that I can finally work again at this time, I thought I would have to work in the mine tunnels for the rest of my life."
Oleg was at the front of the team and laughed.
"Then you will be very busy in the future. There are people coming and going from the upper and lower areas every day."
As they chatted, Xia Zhihui presided over the formation and asked the children to line up to enter.
After the children entered, they couldn't help but touch here and run around there.
When the adults saw it, they just smiled and said nothing more.
This group of children has only stayed in the lower area since they were born. There are many things they have never seen before, and it is normal to be curious.
At Jillian's signal, Isabella asked the children to sit down obediently and fasten their seat belts, and then she sat at the front of the line.
Sitting at the back of the children were Hook and Clara, and behind them were the adults.
The cable car started smoothly and set off towards the upper area.
Natasha yawned loudly, and Siel sat next to her.
"Nata, did you not sleep well last night? Why are there dark circles under your eyes?"
"Yes, I was busy catching up on manuscripts last night, but it doesn't matter. Bronya told me that there will be a makeup artist by then."
March 7, who was sitting next to her and looking out the window, immediately turned his head when he heard these words.
"And a makeup artist?"
Seeing her eagerness to try, Natasha smiled.
"Why, you want to try it too?"
"It's better not to do it. This girl is naturally beautiful and doesn't need makeup."
Half an hour later, the cable car finally arrived at the station in the upper area.
The station is located directly below the central square, with exits to the north and south.
Xia Zhihui and the others chose the south exit this time because the Hearth Hub was also in this direction and could join the Earthfire members faster.
Hook followed Natasha, looking at places he had never seen before, filled with curiosity.
Stepping up the long steps, the blue sky appeared in her field of vision little by little.
There is still a wisp of white clouds floating in the deep, eternal sky.
She let out the freest exclamation since her birth.
"Wow, it's so big and the ceiling is so blue!"
Natasha smiled happily.
"Hook, that's not the ceiling, that's the sky."
The speech I stayed up late to write last night seemed to have new insights.
For adults like her and Oleg, lifting the blockade means regaining the previous way of life, returning from an abnormal life to a normal life without having to worry about survival.
For them, this is just the end of a rough patch in their lives.
But for these children who were born and grew up during the blockade years, this is a new beginning in life.
And if these children have tasted the sweetness of freedom and breathed fresh air, they may no longer be able to accept isolation and isolation.
Even though Xia Zhihui tried his best to ensure their most basic living conditions such as food, clothing, housing and transportation, and told them all kinds of fanciful stories, he was far from letting them take a look at the sky and experience what freedom means.
The pain that their generation has experienced must never happen again to these children.
The mistakes made by the previous generation must also be repaired by the previous generation. The children should be given a better world than before.
Obviously this is a good day worth remembering and should be faced with the brightest smile. Natasha looked at the children who exclaimed freely, but her eyes were red.
The children were all rushing in front, and no one was looking at her. However, Xi'er and Xia Zhihui were beside her on the left and right, and even handed over the scarf thoughtfully.
After Natasha's mood stabilized a little, Xia Zhihui patted her on the shoulder and pointed not far away, where there was a stooped old lady with gray hair and plain clothes. Behind her stood a woman with gray hair but a tall and straight posture. The orderly butler held a basket in his hand.
"mom!"
"Nata, is it Nata? Come here quickly and let mom take a good look at you!"
Mother and daughter embraced each other warmly, and Oswell bowed slightly to Xia Zhihui.
After a brief exchange of feelings, the Silver Mane Iron Guard came over at an inappropriate time and asked Natasha and Oleg to go to the square for the time being to prepare.
Natasha was still a little reluctant to leave, but old lady Vanessa was very sensible and pulled Xia Zhihui and Xi'er and said to her.
"Go quickly, I know Xia Zhihui, and they are with me."
After the two left, the children also gathered around curiously.
Mrs. Vanessa had a kind smile on her face.
"These are the children from the children's commune, right? They are all so good-looking. Come on, call me grandma."
The children were still a little cautious, but Xia Zhihui spoke.
"This is Nata's mother, Mrs. Vanessa. You can call her Grandma Vanessa."
"Grandma Vanessa!"
The clear voices of the children made Vanessa seem several years younger, beckoning Oswell to lift the cloth cover on the basket.
This is a basket of sweets.
"Orson, send it to them quickly."
Seeing this, Xia Zhihui quickly organized order with Jillian.
"This is the housekeeper at Grandma Vanessa's house, Grandpa Oswell. You can call him Grandpa Housekeeper, and you can call him Grandpa Orson."
"They are not strangers. They line up to receive candies. After receiving them, they should thank them properly."
The children lined up consciously and thanked the two elders who cared about them one by one.
Vanessa said after seeing the children holding candies in their hands.
"Okay, Xiaoxia, take the children to the square quickly. You move faster and find a good seat. Old lady, I will follow you and go slowly."
Xier bent down.
"I'll carry you, Mrs. Vanessa. Nata will be very happy to see you on the stage."
"You must be Xi'er, right? Natato mentioned you in the letter sent by Xiaoxia, saying that you are a very reliable child. Thank you for taking care of her in the lower city."
Xi'er shook her head.
"How can I take care of her as much as she takes care of me?"
