Dawang exchanged spots with Lin Lan and as soon as he stepped on the bicycle, he sped off immediately.
As the bicycle was tall and his legs were not really long enough to reach the pedals, he needed to stand up when riding the bicycle, which caused a few inevitable wobbles occasionally.
He rode so fast that Erwang was frightened to the point where he held onto his seat for life, “E;dest Brother, slow down, slow down!”
But Sanwang yelled, “Eldest Brother, hurry up and overtake them!”
Maisui also shouted excitedly, “Father, don’t let Eldest Brother be proud!”
In the end, it became Dawang twisting and swerving his bicycle as he engaged in a competition with Han Qingsong to see who was faster.
Lin Lan tugged at Han Qingsong’s clothes, motioning for him to slow down and let the children win.
She was also very happy to see Dawang rushing forward and letting out cheers every now and then. The children would definitely remember the happy memories today for a lifetime.
It was still early when they arrived in the County Town, so the children had conflicts about where to go. Maisui and Erwang wanted to go to the bookstore, but Dawang said that the bookstore was the most boring place to be. He wanted to go to the theatre, the Supply and Marketing Cooperative and factories.
In the end, they split up and went their separate ways.
Lin Lan thought about it for a while and didn’t restrict them. She took out 2 Yuan and gave it to Dawang, “This is for you and Sanwang. You don’t have to spend it if you don’t want to, but if you do end up buying something, you have to explain to me what you got with a good reason.”
They also decided to meet at the cinema and theatre entrance no later than when the sun had reached the midpoint of the western sky.
Dawang nodded, put the money in his pocket and led Sanwang off to play.
After leaving their Dark Lord father, he felt like this was a breath of freedom— how freeing!
After passing a corner, Dawang took his younger brother aside, “I’ll find a place for you to play and then I’ll come find you to go back together.”
Sanwang was stunned, “Eldest Brother, you won’t take me with you?”
Dawang, “I have something to do.”
“I want to follow!” Sanwang immediately grabbed the hem of his clothes.
Dawang, “I’ll buy you candy.”
Sanwang, “You don’t even have a ticket,” Just because he was younger, Sanwang expressed his will to not be underestimated.
Dawang snorted, “Come on.”
He led Sanwang into an alley.
There were no high-rise buildings in the County Town at this time, so all the buildings around them were basically bungalows. Occasionally, some buildings were 2-story buildings with only very few of them reaching 3 stories. There were some poplar trees planted on both sides of the alley and every household tied ropes to hang their quilts on them. Dawang kept walking before they soon arrived at the gate of a yard.
Before going in, he stared at Sanwang, “You can come with me, but no one is allowed to know— not even our parents.”
Sanwang hesitated for a moment, but his interest in the mysterious behaviour of his Eldest Brother overwhelmed Lin Lan’s earnest teachings. He nodded, “Eldest Brother, I will keep your secret safe!”
A kind of excitement surged in his heart; it was as if he was going to accomplish something huge along with his Eldest Brother.
Seeing the solemn expression on his face, Dawang couldn’t help but laugh before he flicked him on the head, “If you are interrogated, you can’t betray me even if you are beaten to death!”
Sanwang immediately possessed himself in a drama script as he clutched his chest, “Eldest Brother…y-you must help me…pay my taxes…”
