Chapter 125 Happy Town is very happy

Xingfu Town, Ping An Village.

A young figure ran in the countryside, shuttling between the endless wheat fields.

"Hehe, hehe, when we get home in the evening, we will have a big dinner!"

The boy ran, showing a happy and expectant expression, and whispered to himself.

"From today on, I am ten years old and an adult. I can help my parents work!"

The boy's name is Lu Yuan. Today is his tenth birthday. He is a native of Pingan Village.

For Lu Yuan now, Ping An Village is everything to him.

In Lu Yuan's eyes, Happy Town is the most fun place!

There are a lot of delicious food there, a lot of fun toys, and some novel things that I have never seen before.

Everything in Happy Town, in the eyes of this ten-year-old child, is so perfect and so happy.

"Dad won't let me go shopping with him in Happy Town. It's so damning. When I get home at night, I'm going to pull his beard, huh!"

Lu Yuan lowered his head, holding a small wooden stick, thinking as he walked.

"Dad is so bad. He asked me to go with him before. Why didn't he let me go this time?"

Lu Yuan curled his lips, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.

What he cares about is not whether he can go to town, but whether he can eat the beautiful and sweet candied haws.

In the past, whenever he accompanied his father to town, Lu's father would buy him a candied haws.

But this time, Lu Yuan felt that he couldn't eat anymore, and felt regretful in his heart. After all, he hadn't eaten for a long time.

For Lu Yuan, the moment he eats candied haws of sugar is the happiest moment.

Unknowingly, it was getting late, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on this little figure. His shadow was stretched and long, making him look so lonely and lonely.

Lu Yuan walked alone on the path home, looking forward to it.

Father Lu said this morning that he would give him a surprise.

Lu Yuan didn't know what the so-called surprise was, but the anticipation in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.

Soon after, Lu Yuan returned to the village.

The smoke is curling up, and the night gradually emerges. Every household in Ping An Village has cooked meals and is preparing to have dinner with their families.

Work at sunrise and rest at sunset. This is the eternal routine of the villagers in Ping'an Village.

Lu Yuan stood at the door of his house, looking at the candlelight in the house and smiling.

There are three houses in the family, but they are all made of thatch and earth.

The three houses are neither big nor small, and there is a small yard to set it off.

It gives people a feeling of tranquility and peace.

Lu Yuan yelled and ran into the house.

"Mom, is my father back?"

Before Mother Lu could reply, a rough laughter echoed through the room.

"Hahahaha, you brat, long time no see, do you miss me so much?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man picked up Lu Yuan and spun him around in a big circle.

The man was Lu Yuan's father, an ordinary and simple man.

"Dad, put me down, I'm dizzy."

"Hahaha, okay."

After coming down, Lu Yuan's nose twitched, and then he shouted to his mother: "Mom, what's delicious today? This tastes so delicious."

"Don't worry, you'll find out later."

………

Soon, the meal was ready, and the family of three sat on wooden stools around a wooden table, ready to eat.

"Wow, Dad, Mom, there is meat to eat today, and there are also big round eggs!"

"Today is your tenth birthday, so of course you have to eat something delicious."

Lu Yuan jumped up excitedly when he saw the food, his heart filled with unparalleled joy.

Although it was a pity that he couldn't eat candied haws today, Lu Yuan was still very happy with the delicious meat and eggs.

Today, I am so happy!

At the dinner table, Father Lu saw that his brat was only focused on eating, so he smiled and said:

"You brat, why don't you ask me what the surprise was that I promised you this morning?"

When Lu Yuan heard this, he was stunned and said blankly:

"Ah, is there any surprise? Isn't the surprise meat and eggs?"

"Hey, silly boy, how can this be considered a surprise?"

"Oh, let me guess, is it... candied haws?"

Lu Yuan said expectantly.

Father Lu couldn't laugh or cry and joked.

"Wrong answer."

"Oh, no."

Lu Yuan's excitement that had just risen suddenly disappeared and he felt lost.

"However, although the surprise is not candied haws, it is, dang, dang, dang!"

Then, Father Lu took out a candied haws of sugar-coated haws wrapped in a layer of transparent tissue from his back and glowing red.

When Lu Yuan saw this scene, he shouted excitedly.

"Wow, Dad, you are so good to me."

"Thank you dad!"

"You can't eat now. You can wait until you finish eating. Do you understand?"

Mother Lu reminded Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan obeyed and said:

"I know, mother."

"But, dad, if the candied haws on a stick is not a surprise, then what is the surprise?"

Lu Yuan asked doubtfully.

Mother Lu looked at Father Lu and cast a look.

Father Lu nodded and said solemnly to Lu Yuan:

"Xiao Yuan, your mother and I have decided that starting from tomorrow, you will go to the newly opened school on the edge of Xingfu Town to study."

"I have made an agreement with Mr. Ye in the school today. Since the journey is far away, from now on you will live in the school dormitory. You can go home at any time in your free time."

After hearing what Lu's father said, Lu Yuan gradually lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, he raised his head and mustered up the courage to say:

"Dad, Mom, I don't want to go to school. I'm grown up and I can help you work."

Hearing this, Father Lu and Mother Lu looked at each other, then showed a smile and said coaxingly:

"Xiao Yuan, there is no future in staying in this safe village. Only by learning knowledge and gaining fame can you have a better life."

"My parents know that you are not willing to spend money to go to school, and they know that you want to share some of the pressure for us. However, you are only ten years old and you are still young. You are only responsible for schooling. Do you understand?"

Father Lu patted his chest and said seriously:

"Xiao Yuan, although the tuition is quite high, you have to know that your father and I earn even more!"

"The tuition fee is just a drop in the bucket, a drop in the bucket!"

Lu Yuan looked at his parents with expressionless faces, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.

After a long time, he nodded, which meant that he had agreed to go to school.

The two elders looked at each other and smiled, feeling very happy.

That night, Lu Yuan didn't sleep. He lay on the bed, opened his eyes, and looked at the dark room, wondering what he was thinking.

In fact, he knows everything, and he has no objection to studying.

However, he felt that he was not the material and would probably waste this precious opportunity.

Lu Yuan sat up, holding the candied haws that he forgot to eat at night, and leaned against the wall.

He immediately put it into his mouth and took a bite. He looked out the window and smiled.

Candied haws, so sweet.
