Chapter 50
Chapter 50
Yu Nan wanted to carry the pile of exercise books downstairs, but he did not move after gritting his teeth.
Yu's mother: "You are such a waste, it's better to raise you than a piece of barbecued pork."
Yu Nan: "..."
In the end, it was Zhu Yao and Yu Nan's mother who carried the book downstairs, and Yu Nan's mother gave Yu Nan some money and asked Yu Nan to take Zhu Yao to play around.
Yu Nan: "...Mom, I have money, not to mention that my new house was built with my savings..."
Yu's mother knocked Yu Nan on the head: "Your mother doesn't want any money for you, are your wings hard?"
Yu Nan: I dare not.
There is a small garage behind the house. In addition to Yu Nan's parents' private car, there is also a powder blue electric car with Hello Kitty stickers on it.
The electric car was plugged in, the key was inserted in the car, Yu Nan turned it - it was fully charged.
Yu Nan put the stack of books on the pedals of the electric car, got on the electric car and turned the key, the lights flashed once, indicating that everything was normal.
She nimbly rode the car out of the garage, turned her head and patted the back seat of the electric car, "Come on, sister, let's go for a ride~"
Zhu Yao was a little scared. She had never taken this kind of transportation, whether it was an electric car or a bicycle.
The two wheels are in a line, which scares her a bit...
Yu Nan noticed Zhu Yao's vague resistance, tilted his head and said with a smile: "You won't be afraid, will you?"
Zhu Yao nodded: "I have never ridden before, it feels very dangerous."
"Didn't you ride a bicycle in college? I've heard the legend of your school. The campus is so big that it takes two hours to walk from the dormitory to the teaching building without cycling. Some people write code while cycling, and there are professors in the school. Cycling in…”
Zhu Yao quickly interrupted Yu Nan: "That's Dihua, Dihua's campus is big, and our school is small, so it's no problem to walk a few steps."
Besides, even Dihua wouldn't be able to walk around the campus for two hours...
"But I heard that the students of your school will live in the Old Summer Palace."
"That's Yuanmingyuan Campus... We don't need to go to Yanyuan Campus... Anyway, we don't need to ride a bike!"
"I thought... cycling was a must-have skill for everyone when they were kids."
"Uh...my family is from Qindao."
Yu Nan understood that the island city is high in the east, low in the west, and uplifted in the north and south, with a depression in the middle. There are few flat places in the urban area, so there are few people riding bicycles.
Many Qindao people have never been able to ride a bicycle since they were young.
Zhu Yao sat in the back nervously, and Yu Nan laughed heartily, "If you get scared for a while, put your arms around my waist and close your eyes."
Yu Nan put on Zhu Yao's only safety helmet, and twisted out of the alley-like bungalow residential area.
The traffic indicator lines on the road have long faded, and the white and yellow are covered with dust and mottled.There are few private cars on the street, and more are bicycles, electric cars, and tricycles towing goods, and occasionally old people drive by in horse-drawn carriages...
Time here seems to have stopped in the last century.
"This is a small county and the place is small. Usually, people don't drive, and some places are only two steps away."
Yu Nan played a trick, she put the electric car into the maximum gear, and drove Zhu Yao at the fastest speed in the twisted alley.
"You... slow down!"
Zhu Yao hugged Yu Nan tightly, leaning her head against Yu Nan's back, almost sticking her whole body behind her.
"Scared, hold me tight~"
When the speed is fast, the head wind is also strong, and Yu Nan brings a ghostly vibrato when speaking.
However, if it is too rough, there will be no good results. When passing a bridge across the river, Yu Nan's right hand that controls the speed cramped badly.
Oops... Her hands are often weak. If she moves too much, she will twitch. She turned the handlebar too hard just now, and now the scar is itchy and painful like an electric current.
The car shook violently, and Yu Nan quickly let go of his hands and stretched out his feet. At least the car and people did not fall to the ground.
However, the stack of books fell to the ground.
"Did you almost fall just now?"
"Uh…"
Although there was no danger, Yu Nan was afraid that his hands would go wrong again, so he slowed down, and the two of them walked slowly through the streets and alleys.
Because the speed slowed down, Zhu Yao opened her eyes and looked around curiously.
The houses in this small town are mainly white, with off-white wall panels and white wall paint, but the red bricks inside can be seen through the gaps.
Banners of businesses, large and small, hang beside the houses, and yellow characters, such as "wine", "smoke", and "grain and oil", are rusted on the wine-red cloth to replace the neon signs in the city.
Some businesses also set up a wooden board in front of the door, such as "Ten yuan box lunch", "Milk tea ice cream"
Yu Nan stopped in front of a compound with wooden boards for "collection of waste products". There was no one at the door, and the two opened the unlocked iron door. The man was squatting on the ground with his back to them tapping the waste.
"Oh, isn't this Xiao Yu? Go home? Has your brother come back yet?"
"Brother Dajun? Uh, my brother didn't come back...I'm here to buy scraps."
The man called Dajun by Yu Nan had dark skin, plateau red on his face, and a sharpened pencil end clipped in his ear, looking at them with piercing eyes.
"Ah, it was delivered to me from such a long distance? Just give me a call and I'll pick it up."
"It happened to be out for a stroll, and it was delivered on the way."
"Just a few books, I won't save your money, why is it a college entrance examination supplement? Someone in your family just finished the exam?"
Dajun didn't greet them, he gave the money readily, recorded the account with the tip of the pencil on his ear, took a few coins and banknotes for Yu Nan, and continued to immerse himself in sorting out the hill of waste.
Walking out of the scrap yard, Yu Nan held the coins with a look of wonder, "I haven't touched physical currency for a long time, what is this thing called! Coins and paper money?"
"It's paper money!" Zhu Yao was helpless, isn't paper money for the dead?
There happened to be a "cangmai" next to the waste station, and Yu Nan bought two popsicles with the money from selling the waste.
In this small town, small shops are not called "small stores" or "grocery stores", but "cangmai".
"Ice cream is getting more and more expensive now."
Yu Nan sighed, before it was fifty cents a piece, but now it costs twenty or thirty more... "However, we can afford it, so we can eat whatever we want at home!"
Yu Tuhao Nan waved his hand, full of pride.
Zhu Yao looked at the popsicle in her hand and choked speechlessly. When someone went to the "cangbuy" just now, because the aunt didn't have a WeChat QR code, she had to use the "notes" she just got to buy the cheapest popsicle.
The popsicle is called "Babaliang", which means that the sugar water is frozen into a white cylinder, and it is faintly bright, and when you bite it, your mouth is full of ice balls.
With a popsicle in her mouth, Yu Nan rode Zhu Yao back in the car.
"Oh, ang! Ang (cool)!"
The ice stick was so cold that Yu Nan's teeth were so cold, and her cheeks ached, Zhu Yao hurriedly helped her hold the ice cream.
"Let's find a place to finish the ice cream first."
After all, it was summer, and the weather was a bit hot, so the sugar melted and flowed into Zhu Yao's hands.
Yu Nan found a shaded place to park, got out of the car, took the popsicle from Zhu Yao's hand, and subconsciously went to rub Zhu Yao's sugar-stained fingers.
Zhu Yao quickly withdrew her hand, flicked Yu Nan's forehead with a clean hand, "What do you want to do?"
"Aren't we together?" Yu Nan looked at Zhu Yao aggrievedly.
Zhu Yao felt cross veins appear on her forehead, took a deep breath, and forced out a sullen smile, "Don't you think it's dirty?"
"Uh... But I didn't bring toilet paper... Shall we go to the river to wash?"
There is a river that flows through the middle of the town, and it is not far from here.
The side of the river is blocked by iron pillars and chains sprayed with red paint, it seems that people are worried about accidentally falling into the water...
However, there is no fence in the shoal, and the clear river water can see the pebbles on the river sand under the sunlight, and occasionally there are a few fish and shrimp swimming.
"Now the water is polluted. When I was young, there were so many shrimps in this season, and there were small crabs under the cobblestones. I took a bucket home and asked my mother to fry them. I wrapped them in flour, egg whites and bread crumbs. The children next door were crying!"
Yu Nan played happily in the shallow water area, while Zhu Yao, who had washed her hands well, watched Yu Nan play happily.
It turns out...Yu Nan wasn't born a house girl.
"Oh, I caught it! Sister, come and see!"
Yu Nan put his hands together and stood up holding something. Zhu Yao walked over and found a translucent shrimp bouncing in Yu Nan's hand.
"It's this kind of small shrimp, transparent, and the soup is very fragrant!"
The moment Yu Nan opened his hand, the shrimp jumped and jumped back into the river.
"My shrimp!" Yu Nan wailed, and lay down in the shallows looking for that transparent shrimp again.
Zhu Yao suddenly understood why Li Yue and Lang Xi always said that Yu Nan was a primary school student, but she was indeed like a young child, always innocent and always warm to others.
Sometimes her childish behavior would make people's teeth itch, but facing the ghostly Yu Nan, she felt that it was very good.
Zhu Yao came to a sudden, so she likes childish ghosts?Maybe people who have had entanglements before are not this type...
Without allowing her to think too much, Yu Nan splashed a handful of water on Zhu Yao's face, wetting her blouse.
Zhu Yao: ...
Yu Nan looked at Zhu Yao with a smile: "If it was Lang Xi or Li Yue, I would have beaten me already."
This kid...does he deserve a beating?
Zhu Yao forced a smile, and her wet hair stuck to her forehead, making the smile look forced.
"Sister, I don't think you will be angry, you are really good to me!"
Zhu Yao closed her eyes in pain, raised her head at 45° and opened her eyes to look up at the clear sky - the cloudless sun was dazzling, Zhu Yao closed her eyes again in pain.
After all, Yu Nan is the benefactor, so she has to endure... What's more, Zhu Yao spent the first half of her life in patience, and she never lost her temper.
When other people's children can rely on their parents, her mother wants to exchange her for money, and her father wants her to disappear from this world.No one has ever firmly chosen her, and there has never been anyone who firmly supports her behind her.
She could only accept it submissively, put away all her sharp sides to show her harmlessness, at least survive first, and then - before those people found out, she escaped far away.
