Yang Yi handed the bag of plush toys to Xi Xi, thinking that the energetic little girl would take it without hesitation.
However, he saw that Xi Xi hid her little hand behind her back. In order to hide her little hand, the little girl stuck out her belly, and her two braids hung in front of her chest. She blinked her big bright eyes, as if she wanted to say something, but stopped.
"What? Don't you want it? "Yang Yi asked, amused.
"Papa, help me take it!" Xi Xi's tone was a little hesitant, but it was a statement.
"Why? Didn't we agree that you'd be responsible for holding it until we're done with the zoo? "Yang Yi's lips curled up slightly as he pretended to be confused.
"Oh … Papa, help me take it!" Xi Xi frowned slightly, and said sadly and pitifully, "I have been holding it for a long time."
Yang Yi almost couldn't stand his daughter's soft and cute pleading.
However, there were some things that Xi Xi still needed to understand. Yang Yi shook his head and said, "That won't do. You see, papa doesn't have free hands to take things. Moreover, you promised me that you would help me take it at the foot of the mountain. You can't break your promise. Look, your little brother is looking at you. If you break your promise, he will think, 'Sister, shame, shame, shame!' "
After hearing what her father said, Xi Xi subconsciously looked at Tong Tong, who was in her mother's arms. The little guy seemed to have a reaction to being called "little brother". He turned his little head and looked at his father, who had said a lot!
I can't lose face in front of my little brother. We are big sisters!
Xi Xi pursed her lips, but she still toughened up. She reluctantly reached out her little hand and said, "Okay! I'll take it … "
…
However, a child's mood came and went quickly!
When they saw the real giraffe later, Xixi, who had become a little fangirl of this big guy that was several meters tall, completely forgot her grievances just now. She held the bag with one hand and waved excitedly at the big guy with the other hand.
The little girl was so happy that it was as if she had met an old friend. However, the giraffe ignored her. These big guys were enjoying the best scenery in the zoo. Their heads were held high as they nibbled on the leaves hanging in cages. At the same time, they were leisurely looking at the famous buildings such as the Opera House on the other side of the mountain.
Xi Xi, who was only a meter tall, and Yang Yi, who was almost two meters tall, were dwarfs in front of them. Naturally, the scenery in the bay was not as beautiful as it was!
Later on, Xi Xi also saw many Australian animals, such as an ostrich like emu, a short kangaroo, and a short-tailed kangaroo that slept with its head on its tail, unwilling to show its charm to Xi Xi …
Finally, the little girl saw her real target — a big kangaroo with long legs, long arms, and a long tail!
"Papa, kangaroo, kangaroo!" The little girl recognized the big kangaroo she had seen in the photos. She turned around happily, pulled her father's hand, and pulled him over. Her voice was clear and crisp.
Yang Yi smiled and said, "Come, stand here. This angle is good. Papa will take a few photos of you and the kangaroo!"
After all, kangaroos were not as docile as koalas. The tourists could only watch them through the cage and take photos through the cage. Even so, Xixi couldn't help but ask her father to take a few more photos of her. Looking at the little girl's happy smile in the photos, revealing two rows of white teeth, it was even brighter than the sun at noon!
After taking the photos, Xi Xi's excitement gradually subsided. She calmed down and carefully observed the kangaroo in the cage.
The kangaroo in the cage was lazily lying on the sand, basking in the sun. Perhaps it felt Xi Xi's gaze, it pricked up its ears, turned its head, and squinted its eyes at the little girl.
Hmm … I'm not interested. I'm not a poop picker.
The kangaroo turned its head and continued to lie on the sand bitterly, basking in the sun and sleeping in.
Of course, in Xi Xi's view, there was another explanation for the kangaroo's expression. The little girl pulled her father's hand and said worriedly, "Papa, why is the kangaroo unhappy?"
"Because it's in the cage! How can it be happy? "Yang Yi said.
"Why is it unhappy in the cage?" Xi Xi asked, puzzled.
"It's not free in the cage! For example, Xi Xi, will you be happy if you go to kindergarten? "Yang Yi asked.
Children should not like to go to school, right?
However, Xi Xi said matter-of-factly, "I'll be happy! If I go to kindergarten, I can play with Qiqi, Lu Weisha, and the others! "
Right, his daughter was a little different from ordinary people …
"Well, let's not talk about kindergarten." Yang Yi had to change an example. "For example, if Papa keeps you at home, you can't play with Bao Bao, Xiao Guai, and the others, and you can't go out and play with Xin Er, or other children. Will you be unhappy?"
"Unhappy … Papa, don't keep me at home, okay?" Xi Xi finally nodded. She seemed to understand what her father meant. She looked at her father nervously, worried that what her father said was true.
"Papa is just giving an example. Why would I lock you up?" Yang Yi smiled and patted Xi Xi's little head. He said, "Through this example, you should be able to understand the kangaroo's feelings. It has no freedom in the cage, and no friends to play with it. It can only be in a daze, so when you see them listless, of course you will be unhappy!"
However, before Yang Yi's voice died away, two big kangaroos had already climbed up and gathered together. They were not going to fight, but were rubbing each other's ears and temples, as if they were communicating with each other.
They were really undermining him! Yang Yi just said that they had no friends …
Yang Yi was speechless. Fortunately, Xi Xi did not notice. The kind little girl was worried about the situation of the kangaroos. She frowned and said to her father, "Papa, then … will the kangaroos be happy living outside?"
At this time, the tour guide was also introducing the current situation of the kangaroos. Yang Yi listened and whispered to his daughter, "You can't say that. Now they are in the zoo. They don't have to worry about food, and there is no danger. They are much more comfortable than living in the wild, but they have lost their freedom. Sometimes, in order to survive, these animals of nature need to make some choices and sacrifices. "
The little girl looked at her father in confusion. She could not understand this.
"When you grow up, you will understand." Yang Yi smiled and did not explain the cruel reality to his daughter.
At noon, they ate beef burgers and fries in the zoo's restaurant. The beef burgers were made with a lot of ingredients, but the taste was relatively ordinary. Xi Xi, who was fed by her father's delicious food, only reluctantly ate a little. But taking advantage of this opportunity, she could temporarily get rid of the bag of plush toys that were getting more and more "heavy" and have a good rest.
Including the afternoon, Xi Xi played in the zoo for almost the whole day. She also saw many animals from other places, such as Japanese hippopotamuses, fishing cats, Sumatran tigers, turkeys, and so on.
But when they went down the mountain, no matter how energetic the little girl was, she finally ran out of energy. Xi Xi did not know that, in fact, they could have taken the cable car down the mountain, but the bad father quietly "missed" that scenic spot and carried out the big test to the end.
After walking down the mountain for a while, Xi Xi did not want to walk anymore.
The tired little girl was nestled in her father's arms and did not want to move.
"Dad can carry you, but we have to divide the work. You help dad continue to carry this bag, okay?" Yang Yi smiled and handed the plush toy bag that was destined to leave a deep impression in her memory to Xi Xi.
Although the little girl was listless, she still quickly nodded.
Being able to let her father carry her down the mountain, she was very comfortable! Although carrying an extra bag was annoying, it was better than walking down the mountain!
Yang Yi stuffed the camera bag into his backpack, grabbed Xi Xi with his big hands, and prepared to go down the mountain.
However, Yang Yi turned his head and saw Murphy's bitter eyes.
