Chapter 569: Extracurricular Teaching at the Seaside
As summer vacation approaches, the knowledge that needs to be learned this semester is coming to an end, and the courses are starting to become easier.
Of course, for most students, easy courses are still torture, just like math class. If you don’t know the answer, you won’t know the answer even if you force yourself to do so.
Youzhi Elementary School, during break.
"That mother and daughter must have moved away now. I was thinking of taking Xiaoke over there to see them this weekend."
In Class 2, Grade 4, Sakura was sitting at her seat, chatting idly with Tomoyo.
The mother and daughter she was talking about were the family of the little girl she met when she sealed the floating card last time.
Because the little girl's mother felt that she spent too little time with her child, she quit her job and moved. She didn't know where she moved to. She only knew that the reason for moving was because the mother chose to move and find a new job in order to spend more time with her child.
This was what the little girl's mother told her when she took Xiaoke to visit the little girl last weekend.
If everything went well, the mother and daughter would have moved out of their original residence by now.
"Isn't this great?"
Chiyo smiled and said, "In order to be with her child, she moved and changed jobs. That mother is also a gentle mother."
"Yeah." Sakura nodded: "That's why the child is so gentle."
Before the two could continue their conversation, the bell for class suddenly rang. They immediately stopped talking and sat up straight to prepare for class.
However, as soon as she sat down, Sakura looked embarrassed because this class was her least favorite math class.
Woohoo X﹏X
It’s a pity that I have to take this math class. It would be great if the teacher announced that this math class would be changed to a physical education class.
However, the weather was not good , and there was no sweetness after all the hard work. Math class was still math class, and there was no physical education class today.
After the whole day, Sakura was listless and looked dispirited.
It wasn't until Yoshiyuki Terada announced an important thing at the class meeting before school that she became cheerful.
"Tomorrow is another extracurricular teaching day. This time we are going to the beach. Not only will we have sea bathing, but we will also have outdoor cooking activities. Of course, there will also be a finale test of courage. Everyone remember to be prepared tomorrow."
After hearing what Terada Yoshiyuki said, the students in the audience were stunned for a second and then became excited.
"Yeah, the beach!"
"Great, let's go to the beach!"
"Great, we can go to the beach tomorrow."
"Great! We can go to the blue beach tomorrow!"
“Great…”
The classroom suddenly became excited, and the cheers could even be heard by the next class.
"It's another after-school day, and we're going to the beach... As expected, such unrealistic lessons only appear in anime."
Xia Yu leaned back in his chair, listening to the cheers of the whole class, and couldn't help but complain.
Only in anime do extracurricular teaching days appear so frequently. After visiting the aquarium, art gallery and zoo, now it’s time to go to the beach, right?
I don’t know where to go , the botanical garden?
Along with the cheerful atmosphere, Terada Yoshiyuki also announced the end of school with a smile.
The next day, dawn.
The students who gathered at the school got on the bus together. After an hour's journey, they arrived at the seaside far away from the city.
The beaches at that time were far from being as dirty and messy as those in later generations. Looking around, there was only the azure blue sea and sky, and the sparkling golden sand. There was no plastic garbage at all.
Of course, it may also be because of the world. People in this world are very gentle, which makes the world seem gentle as well.
In a gentle world, ugliness such as environmental pollution will naturally not occur.
"Xia, we should gather over there."
Just as Xia Yu was staring at the clean and bright beach in fascination, a voice suddenly sounded beside him.
"Oh, thanks for the reminder."
Xia Yu came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly to Zhishi beside him to express his gratitude, then stepped forward to catch up with the main group. It was still early anyway, so there was no need to rush.
After arriving at the beach, Yoshiyuki Terada naturally began to give instructions and lectures. After informing them of the precautions, the male and female teachers each led the students they were responsible for to the nearby changing room to change clothes.
The students' swimsuits are the uniform swimsuits designated by Tomoeda Elementary School. Boys wear shorts, while girls wear one-piece swimsuits, commonly known as "swimsuits".
Of course, in addition to swimsuits, there are also exclusive clothing for off-campus teaching at the beach, which is a design of shorts and short-sleeved shirts, which will be changed when leaving the beach.
Soon, the students who had changed into their swimsuits regrouped.
After this gathering, Yoshiyuki Terada did not give a speech, but just gave a few instructions and then announced the disbandment.
In an instant, the students were like wild horses that had broken free from their reins. They rushed to the beach, cheering and playing with their teachers’ smiles .
Building sand castles, swimming in the sea, and playing ranked games, the students were filled with laughter and the air was filled with the cheerful atmosphere of youth and vitality.
“Wow…that’s amazing!”
"Is that... a mermaid?"
"This is simply a sand sculpture immortal in the world!"
"Silly Immortal!!"
Not long after, a socially anxious boy named Xia Yu once again became the focus of the class just because of the pile of sand sculptures he had made.
While others were still using plastic buckets to build cylindrical sand castles, a mermaid sand sculpture suddenly rose from the ground in the middle of the beach.
However, this mermaid sand sculpture is not very big. After all, Xia Yu is limited by his height and cannot make a sand sculpture that is too high.
But just a mermaid sand sculpture that is as tall as him is enough to attract other people's attention.
"Xia, you are so awesome. Can you teach me how to make sand sculptures?"
"So beautiful, I feel like a real mermaid."
"I really want to take a photo with this mermaid."
As expected, after others noticed the sand sculptures Xia Yu had made, his sand sculptures and himself were instantly surrounded by his classmates, and there were envious and admiring glances from all around.
"Wow, that's not all! I can keep going! Watch me build another pyramid and a sphinx!"
Feeling the gazes of his classmates, Xia Yu waved his hands and laughed. This kind of activity that he could do by himself was his favorite.
If not now, when?
"Sand Sculpture Immortal!"
"Oh, the sand sculpture immortal!"
"Come and see the Sand Sculpture Immortal making sand sculptures. The Sand Sculpture Immortal is going to start making sand sculptures again!"
Hearing that Xia Yu was going to start making sand sculptures again, the student who first called him "Sand Sculpture Immortal" shouted again. Upon hearing the name "Sand Sculpture Immortal", other students also followed suit.
After all, in their country, as long as someone is proficient in something, he will be called an immortal.
People like the cooking immortal, the tempura immortal, and the sushi immortal are all proficient in these things, which is why they are called immortals.
Since classmate Xia is so proficient in sand sculpture, he must be a sand sculpture master!
"Pfft~ Stupid Immortal, no matter when or where, Xia is always so eye-catching."
On the beach not far away, Chishi heard the name and couldn't help but chuckle.
Naoko beside her also nodded affirmatively: "Boys just like to make a fuss like this, but that sand sculpture is really beautiful."
"Xia is really capable. We are the same age, so how come he is so amazing?" Qianchun glanced at the mermaid sculpture that was surrounded by people, and shook her head with emotion, saying, "I really don't know what else Xia can't do."
"Um……"
Hearing Chiharu's words, Rika raised her index finger and casually said, "For example, giving birth to a child?"
“…”
"Hahahaha, that's right, no matter how capable Xia is, she definitely can't have a child."
"You're right. No matter how capable Xia is, she can't give birth to a child like a girl."
"Haha, that's true. No matter how capable a boy is, he can't do this."
After Lijia said that Xia Yu couldn't have children, there was silence for a second, and then more cheerful laughter rang out.
“Hai Hai Hai…”
Just as Naoko and the others were laughing, a little head suddenly popped out of the sea. It was Sakura who had just finished swimming.
After swimming out of the sea, Sakura ran towards them while shouting “Hai Hai Hai…”
Then Sakura took a big step and jumped in front of them, then raised her hands and said happily: "Sorry for the wait, let's start playing volleyball. By the way, what were you laughing at just now?"
Hearing this, Naoko and the others were stunned for a moment, then laughed again. Sakura, who had no idea what had just happened, could only look at them with a confused look on her face.
After laughing, the gentle Lijia explained why they laughed just now.
After hearing this, Sakura couldn't help but laugh, and there was a cheerful atmosphere among the few people.
Next, the five of them started playing volleyball. They played for fun without any rules, after all, it was difficult to divide five people into groups.
It’s more like playing pass and catch than playing volleyball.
However, after playing for a while, Sakura was careless and failed to catch the volleyball, and accidentally let the volleyball fall into the sea.
Just as Sakura was stepping into the sea water to pick up the volleyball, the sea water suddenly broke open and a figure emerged from the sea holding a volleyball.
“Eh…?”
Looking at Yamazaki who suddenly appeared, Sakura was slightly stunned and a little scared.
With his squinting eyes, Yamazaki looked like a squinting river god at this moment, holding a volleyball in his hand, and was just about to say that classic line.
Unfortunately, only Xia Yu knew this joke, and Xia Yu was not here at the moment .
However, although Yamazaki did not say the classic river god lines, he started the classic deception.
"The so-called beach volleyball started in Hawaii when people used coconuts as balls on the beach."
"With coconut?"
After hearing Yamazaki's seemingly scientific but actually nonsensical words, Sakura, who hadn't realized he was misleading, was naturally curious.
Behind her, except for Chiharu who had an expression that said "it starts again", the other three people all smiled helplessly.
Seeing that Sakura seemed to believe it, Yamazaki asked, "Aren't coconuts hard and heavy?"
"It's indeed hard and heavy." Sakura nodded.
Seeing that Sakura hadn't started to doubt him, Yamazaki smiled even more and leaned closer to Sakura and whispered, "So I heard that people often got injured during beach volleyball at that time."
“Huh???”
The honest child Sakura did not doubt the truth of this scientific knowledge at all. When she heard that it was easy to get injured when playing volleyball with coconuts, she immediately covered her face with fear.
However, Chiharu in the back shook her head helplessly and said, "Don't believe him, Sakura. He is a liar."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Sakura turned her head curiously: "Is he lying?"
Chiharu put her hands on her hips and said helplessly: "What Yamazaki said seriously is almost always a lie."
"Huh?"
Seeing Chiharu so sure, Sakura turned her head and looked at Yamazaki again. Facing Sakura's inquiring gaze, Yamazaki laughed and simply imitated a seal by using his nose to push the volleyball, trying to use juggling to get rid of the matter.
But in the end, he was buried in the sand by Chiharu and then hit on the head with a volleyball.
After a while, a whistle suddenly sounded and the teacher shouted loudly to assemble.
The morning beach play time is over, and it’s time to prepare lunch, and today’s lunch is naturally fish caught from the sea.
Of course, they need to pull out the fishing nets for catching sea fish themselves , but there is strength in numbers, so it is not too difficult to divide them into two groups.
"1, 2, 3..."
"start!"
Following Terada Yoshiyuki's command, the students also gathered their energy and pulled the tow rope of the fishing net to the rhythm.
After everyone's efforts, the fishing net full of fish was finally dragged out of the sea.
I saw a large group of sea fish jumping in the fishing net. With the sound of these fish jumping, the students' smiles became brighter and brighter.
Seeing this, Terada Yoshiyuki smiled and said, "What a good harvest."
"Oh oh!"×N
After catching a large net of sea fish, lunch was naturally grilled fish. After all the students changed their clothes, Yoshiyuki Terada led his students to the outdoor lunch area.
Lunch here needs to be made by yourself, so the students divided the work and made today's lunch.
Sakura was also peeling potatoes. With her skillful knife skills, the potato skins were not broken at all. Each potato had only one skin.
"Sakura is amazing."
Seeing Sakura's amazing swordsmanship, Chiharu couldn't help but walk over and admire her.
Hearing her friend's praise, Sakura said shyly, "Because I often make it at home."
Several other friends also noticed this scene, and then they all gathered around and praised Sakura.
Sakura, who was surrounded, blushed a little shyly, but at this moment, the sound of cutting vegetables on the other side also attracted their attention.
On the other side of the chopping board, Li Xiaolang was holding a Chinese kitchen knife and cutting cabbage at a very fast speed. The thin cabbage shreds flew directly onto the plate beside him despite the gravity.
This scene made everyone around stare in surprise, even Sakura and others were a little stunned.
The extremely fast hand speed is enough to show that Li Xiaolang is also very good at cooking.
“Amazing!”
But at this moment, another exclamation was heard from another place.
This exclamation made everyone on Syaoran's side and Sakura's side look over.
Then they saw lifelike vegetable carvings and Xia Yu holding a Western-style kitchen knife, who was also carving the next carving at a very fast speed.
"Sure enough, the most amazing one is still classmate Xia."
"It's just a simple lunch, but they even have to carve vegetables. It's a bit exaggerated."
"Come on, Sakura. You can't lose to them."
After Tomoyo said this, Naoko and the others also looked at Sakura. Facing the gazes from her friends, Sakura felt a little embarrassed.
"I... this isn't what we were talking about just now, right?"
