573 Kite flying
(Thanks to my friend Biu for his monthly ticket encouragement)
If you promise your child, you must do it.
I told Xiao Miaomiao yesterday that I must take her to fly a kite, and today I must do it. Although Xiao Miaomiao cannot be flew into the sky, serious kites must also be flew.
There are those kind of silk kites on the market, and they are all very beautifully painted. Although Lao Liu bought one, he also planned to make one by himself.
When I was a child, I made my own kite. At that time, I used bamboo strips and kraft paper to make a long tail, and then I could fool it.
Now Liu Wenrui feels that he is a big kid, and this time the kite that is pasted for Miaomiao must be taller.
"What do you think you're doing for this? Buy the ready-made one and we can just put it away." Wang Shasha said.
"Flying kites is secondary, now is the time to show my true skills." Old Liu said proudly.
"The kites I made when I was a child can fly high, and they can fly up if there is a little wind. This time I made a bigger one, didn't you see if I buy them so long?"
Wang Shasha decided not to care about him. Anyway, if this person goes crazy, you really can't stop him. Xiao Miaomiao seems to be full of energy, so let the father and daughter make trouble.
In the past, I used bamboo strips to make kites. Today, if this kite wants to fly further, Lao Liu used a thin bamboo pole. And when tying it, he also tried his best to fix it.
Although Lao Liu planned to make a kite with a long tail, his artistic cells were still a little small. He was also made according to the little swallow kite he bought, but the size was a little larger.
After the frame is finished, the next step is to paste kraft paper on it. It is not easy to buy this one. I have been touching it on the market for a long time before I found it.
Xiao Miaomiao squatted beside her with a small basin, and carried a small brush to brush glue on the frame very seriously. The little guy was also full of energy to do this job.
But today some of the dogs who came over to play with Miaomiao were disappointed. Today's little guys have no time to play with them. Like Lao Liu, his mind is on this kite.
After the main body of the kite was covered, Lao Liu picked up the scissors again and cut out two long tails and covered them.
"Dad, let's go fly the kite." Xiao Miaomiao said excitedly when she saw that the kite had finished.
"I have to wait a moment, and the glue on it has dried." Old Liu touched the little guy's head.
The little guy looked at it, then he came to the edge of the big kite and blew it hard towards the kite. His mind was very simple, and he could do it quickly if he blew it hard.
Lao Liu can't let his daughter suffer this, so he just carried the little guy up and threw it to the dogs. It's better to have fun with these dogs first, run over from afar, and don't neglect them.
After all, the little guy is a child, and he forgets about kites when playing with the dogs. It’s easy to fool, but I just don’t know what will happen if I get older.
"Wenrui, your mother and I will stay in the village for more days before going back." Liu Qingli came to Liu Wenrui and said.
"Don't you go with us?" Liu Wenrui asked in surprise.
"I haven't come back anymore. I've been away for a year. I'll stay in the village for a few more days this time." Liu Qingli said with a smile.
"And we have to see how our house is. We are afraid of putting it in, so we don't know if there is any leak. Let's wait after May Day, and then we will go there."
Liu Wenrui thought for a while and nodded, "That's fine, you can control the time yourself anyway. If you stay at home, go there. If you stay there for enough, you can come back in advance."
"Sometimes I can't make the mistake of time, so you and my mother can make a decision. I'm also worried that Miaomiao will miss you after a long time. The little guy is looking for someone now, so he likes everyone to stay together."
He won't interfere too much in this matter, just let his parents decide what to do. He thinks it's good to let them live in Kenya for a long time, but it's just that he thinks. Only they know the actual situation.
After lunch, Lao Liu looked at it and found that it was not bad, and the kites were all dried. It was also the weather was good now and it was drying fast.
Xiao Miaomiao really cares about flying kites. Anyway, Xiao Moulin kept talking in the car, and kept asking where to fly them.
The place Lao Liu chose was the river embankment. It would be fine if the kite was in the wild. He wouldn't be able to do this, so big. If the wind was small, it would probably not be able to blow it up.
This season is also very suitable for flying kites. In the north, the wind is relatively strong in early spring. Although it also carries sand and dust, it does not affect the mood of everyone at all.
Chen Cheng and his friends would be even better. They trotted more than ten meters on the river bank and could fly with a light throw. It was so novel and happy to see Xiao Miaomiao.
After preparing for the event, Lao Liu also began to prepare to expand the kite. The wingspan is nearly three meters. When he came here, he was always standing in the pickup carriage.
After feeling the direction of the wind, Lao Liu ran. After running for a while, he jumped into the air confidently, and then held the big kite into the sky.
It seems like that. I don’t know if I underestimated the weight of the kite or overestimated the power of the wind. Anyway, the kite swayed twice and pierced it.
"Dad, why doesn't it fly into the sky?" asked curiously.
"It's just like Xiao Hui, and it's still working hard to learn to fly." Old Liu said seriously.
Everyone held back their laughter and gave him some face, and did not expose him at this time.
Lao Liu carefully checked the kite and said that there was nothing wrong with it. The weight distribution was also very reasonable. It seemed that the kite was too big and too heavy, and he had to increase the force to take off.
This time, Old Liu was serious and tied his shoelaces again. Then he asked Wang Shasha to sit in the car and pull the kite string and follow him, and he resisted the kite again.
"This time it's almost done. When you drive, you look at the rearview mirror and walk at my speed." Old Liu reminded.
"Don't worry, come on, run away, you can't fail anymore, otherwise Miaomiao will be so disappointed." Wang Shasha said with a smile.
Old Liu looked at her resentfully, saying that it was really not a big mess.
The driver was Zhou Xianhao, but fortunately, it was very empty here, even if it was a little bit crooked, it was fine. Just pay attention to Liu Wenrui, don’t drive too fast or too slow, otherwise the kite will not fly.
Not to mention, when the car actually started, Wang Shasha, who was holding the wire wheel, was a little nervous.
The car speed was not slow, so Lao Liu also put all his strength into running. After running for more than a hundred years, Lao Liu really couldn't run anymore, so he threw the kite into the air.
Zhou Xianhao, who was always paying attention, also stepped on the accelerator appropriately and the car accelerated again.
"Oh, it's flying, what should I do?" Looking at the kite in the sky and the strength of the feedback in my hands, Wang Shasha shouted nervously.
"Let the line slowly, let it go slowly, don't worry." Old Liu shouted vigorously, following him.
Wang Shasha floated the string little by little, and the kite slowly flew to a high place. She looked forward for about twenty meters before Zhou Xianhao stopped the car.
"Hurry up, take the wheel over, it gets heavier and heavier." Wang Shasha shouted at Lao Liu who was catching up with him.
Old Liu did not dare to delay and connected the thread wheel.
If it comes to his hands, there is no problem with this. The wind is not bad now, so you can put more threads.
"I originally wanted to take Miaomiao to play, but you had a lot of fun." After Old Liu put the line for a while, Wang Shasha said complaining.
"Didn't you forget this? Now this little guy with a wire wheel can't catch it." Old Liu said with a wry smile.
Now, let alone the small melon, even Wang Shasha will struggle to hold it. The kite is indeed flying high enough, and the pulling force is even greater.
Fortunately, Xiao Miaomiao has no requirements for whether to pull the kite string by herself, so she is very happy to follow the ground and watch the kites in the sky. Sometimes the little guy’s request is really simple, and you can just let us participate, but there are really no other requirements.
Lao Liu took a look, then turned the wire wheel onto the car wheel. There were no big stones on the side, so the car wheel was more worry-free.
"Miaomiao, dad will take you to fly a kite." Old Liu came to the little guy and said.
The little guy nodded happily, then frowned again, "Dad, there is no other kite."
"Haha, it's okay, let's just pull down one." Old Liu said with a smile.
Although the little guy’s requirements are simple, since you are taking the little guy to play, you have to create the greatest happiness for the little guy.
He pulled down a small kite, and this time he asked Zhou Xianhao to run in front with a wire wheel. He carried the little guy and asked the little guy to chase after him with a kite.
The level of participation is very high, and the little guys are all tightly wearing their faces. If it were the same, they would definitely be "giggling" and laughing.
"put"
Seeing that it was almost done, Old Liu shouted.
Xiao Miaomiao quickly let go of her little hands, and her big eyes were also staring at the kite that was being pulled by Zhou Xianhao.
Seeing the kite flying higher and higher and slowly flying into the sky, the little guy finally laughed and his little hands started to pat him hard. It was Lao Liu's forehead ache because the little guy was happy to pat his head.
There is no way to do this. Anyway, as long as the little guy is happy, otherwise what else can it be? It's just to take the little guy out to play.
Flying kites is a fun thing, but whether you keep pulling the thread wheel or repeatedly taking Xiao Miaomiao to experience the process of flying like Lao Liu, you are very tired.
I didn't rush to go home, the wind was still strong outside. Everyone came to the car, eating snacks while watching the kites in the sky.
The original intention is to take Miaomiao to play with me to make Miaomiao happy. In fact, their group of big kids seem to be much happier than Miaomiao. Especially Wang Hu, who was originally a playful person, hadn't experienced flying kites for a long time.
Chapter completed!
