First, the text interpretation:
"Flower Mother-in-law" tells the story of Alice's lifelong pursuit of dreams in flashback. Alice promised her grandfather three things: first, she will travel far away like grandpa when she grows up; Second, when you are old, you should live by the sea like your grandfather; The third is to do something to make the world a better place. When the little girl grew up, she really traveled far away and later lived by the sea. What can be done to make the world a better place? One day, Lu planted her flowers in the garden, which was very beautiful! So, she bought a lot of seeds of Lu and scattered them everywhere when she went out every day. The churches, classrooms, paths and beaches in the town are covered with beautiful Lu Hua Bing. From then on, everyone called her "Hua"
Grandma Hua told many stories to the children. A little girl said to her, when I grow up, I want to travel far away like you. When I get old, I want to live by the sea like you. She said: hmm! Good, but you should remember to do something to make the world more beautiful. ...

The sea breeze blew away her cloak and messed up her hair. She doesn't seem to care at all, just looking at the winding path ahead and a small house near the sea at the end of the path with deep affection. That's grandma Hua's cabin.
