Chapter 156 Reason
Chapter 156 Reason
Lu Yuanqing said a lot, but Zhao Zhongcai was still a little hesitant.
"Yuan Qing! You're more familiar with it, I think you should go!"
If he messes things up, even if he comes back with his head, he won't be able to explain himself.
Yes, he does want to go to the city. He's getting on in years, and the farthest place he's ever been is the county.
He could count the number of times he went to the county on one hand.
But listening to Lu Yuanqing's plan, he was a little worried that he would mess things up.
Lu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao, don't worry about anything, it's just a simple delivery!"
"Besides, with Yuanbo and Chenghe with you, what is there to be afraid of?"
Zhao Zhongcai straightened up and asked, "With you guiding him, I think Yuanbo is becoming more and more like you in how he handles things!"
Looking at his own children, Zhao Zhongcai couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Yuanqing glanced at him, then looked away and said, "It's alright, I still need to study hard!"
"There's a saying, 'One is never too old to learn.' Yuanbo has always lived in Shihua Village, and what he sees is the same world as most people in the village today."
"Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, the future can be seen at a glance."
"But things are different now. He's been to the city and seen how people live. His future is now unpredictable, full of possibilities."
"Uncle Zhao!" Lu Yuanqing called out with a smile, "This trip to the city is just to deliver goods, there's nothing else to do. Why don't you take Hao Hao with you? Let him see the world!"
"Huh?" Zhao Zhongcai was still pondering his words when he heard Lu Yuanqing's suggestion in the blink of an eye.
"This isn't a good idea!"
"What's wrong with that?" Lu Yuanqing said, "Anyway, there's nothing else to do. Hao Hao is still young, he doesn't even need a ticket to ride the bus. Why don't you take him out for a ride?"
"Cheng He used to take Cheng Xia to the city for medical treatment often, so he knows the city's routes quite well. We can have him take you to some fun places to visit. Hao Hao has been envious of that several times!"
That last sentence wasn't something Lu Yuanqing made up.
Lu Yuanqing often went to the Zhao family to see Zhao Zhongcai, so he would naturally run into Zhao Zhenghao.
This is Zhao Laosan's youngest son, the youngest child in the Zhao family. The boy is very well-behaved, and he always obediently calls him "uncle" whenever he sees him.
The children weren't afraid of him either. When they saw him go to the Zhao family's house, they would pull him aside and ask him what fun things there were in the city.
These words were spread by Lu Yuanbo and his group.
Lu Yuanqing took them everywhere he went. Everyone in the family, except Lu Yuanqing himself, didn't feel there was anything to be proud of or brag about. Every single one of them, after going on a long trip, would come back and brag to their friends in the village about what they saw, what they ate, and what they did.
Therefore, the curiosity of the village children had long been piqued.
Lu Yuanqing may have sensed some of Zhao Zhongcai's thoughts, or he may not have, but since it was just a passing thing, he brought it up anyway.
"So Uncle Zhao, don't overthink it. This time you go deliver the goods, and I'll stay behind. You can take Hao Hao with you on a trip!"
“This…” Very good! Now Zhao Zhongcai no longer had any intention of refusing.
At first, he didn't understand Lu Yuanqing's behavior.
You have to bring your children when you go to the commune, when you go to the county, and when you go to the city.
In particular, Zhao Zhongcai couldn't understand why the Lu family would take the whole family to the county to buy New Year's goods every year before the Spring Festival.
This is just a waste of money!
In all his years of life, Zhao Zhongcai had never seen anyone spoil their child like Lu Yuanqing.
However, the visible changes in the Lu family's children also changed his mind and even led him to consider other ideas.
Can simply broadening one's horizons really change a person so easily?
Putting everything else aside, let's just talk about Lu Yuanbo, who is about to go with them to deliver the goods.
If Zhao Zhongcai didn't think about it carefully now, he almost couldn't remember what Lu Yuanbo was like before.
Is it just impulsiveness? A lack of common sense? Getting easily provoked by a few words?
If someone had arranged for Lu Yuanbo to deliver goods to the city in the past, the entire village would probably have strongly opposed it.
But when did even Zhao Zhongcai feel that he didn't need to worry about handing things over to Lu Yuanbo?
……
Regardless of what Zhao Zhongcai was thinking or how grateful he felt to Lu Yuanqing,
Anyway, the delivery personnel have been finalized. Cheng He, Lu Yuanbo, and Zhao Zhongcai will go, and Zhao Zhenghao, who has been overjoyed ever since he heard the news, will also be on the trip.
As soon as they left, Lu Yuanqing gathered several elderly people from the village.
Well, they're not really that old, they're all around sixty years old.
But for this day and age, it is indeed old.
In the village warehouse, Lu Yuanqing smiled at the elderly people in front of him and said, "Grandpa Zhao, Grandpa Lu, you know why I asked someone to call you here this time, right?"
