Chapter 65 Desire
Chapter 65 Desire
The weather is very good.
I was in a good mood and went out for a walk. There was blue sea and blue sky - no, there was only the Yangtze River in the foggy city, but no blue sea.
Besides, Gu Lu didn't go out for a walk. He got up early in the morning and was busy at home.
bang bang-
There was a knock on the door. Gu Lu opened the door and saw his sister Gu Jiayu, who was rare in that she didn't bring any bags.
"Ding ding ding, the Snow Goddess Feng is here!" Gu Jiayu came to the new home, shouting energetically.
Of course, it was Gu Lu who sent the message about the home address, mainly because he was worried that Gu Jiayu would go to Suokouqiu empty-handed.
"Don't worry, brother. I asked Uncle Xiao to take me to our old place, Suokouqiu, and then I took a bus here by myself. This way no one knows your address." Gu Jiayu raised her head and said proudly, and her words and expression showed that she wanted to be praised.
"As expected of a future heroine, your anti-tracking ability is extremely strong." Gu Lu naturally did not hesitate to praise her.
"I'll watch TV for a while and I'll just go and fry some dishes." Gu Lu was wearing a blue apron, which he bought casually in the supermarket. It was a little long for him and covered his calves.
"Then I'll help wash the vegetables." Gu Jiayu said immediately.
However, Gu Lu had prepared the dishes in advance, so they were ready in less than 20 minutes, and Gu Jiayu was not able to help much.
Two people sat next to each other at the dining table.
Gu Lu prepared three dishes and a soup. In order to avoid waste, the dishes were not large in quantity. The soup was the cucumber and preserved egg soup that Gu Lu always loved. Many people are not used to eating preserved eggs, but for those who are used to it, it is quite delicious!
"Brother, did you know that Xiao Yang didn't get into Bashu Middle School?" Gu Jiayu said, "I really wanted to brag that you were recommended to No. 8 Middle School, but I held back."
Gu Jiayu asked, "By the way, brother, you moved away. Did you really not tell mom and dad? What if they get worried if they can't find you?"
"Don't worry, they don't care about me and never let me worry." Gu Lu said with a smile, "Look, I've moved here for almost 20 days, who knows I'm not at home?"
Normally, she only visits her brother once every two months, but during summer and winter vacations, Gu Jiayu can visit more frequently. This time, it has been just about a month since the last time.
"..." Gu Jiayu complained in her heart that her father was so unreliable and didn't even know that his son had been away from home for such a long time.
What expression would he (his father) have when he found out? Gu Jiayu wondered silently in her heart.
Talking about something happy, Gu Jiayu immediately changed the subject, "Brother, I have good news for you. Mom agreed to let you go with her on her birthday the day after tomorrow!"
For the original body, this was indeed good news, even news that made him dance with joy.
The reason is very simple—because the original body missed his mother.
My sister must have put in a lot of effort because she wasn’t able to go last year.
But I'm going to let you down. Gu Lu rubbed Gu Jiayu's little head and said, "I won't go. You guys should live well."
"Ah?" Gu Jiayu was nervous.
Humph, you ignored me yesterday, but after I die, I will make it impossible for you to reach me!
"Because when mom sees me she will think of dad, and she will be unhappy when she thinks of dad. Since it's her birthday, I shouldn't make mom unhappy." Gu Lu said.
"Oh……"
Gu Jiayu thought about it and felt that it made sense. She was in a low mood, and the two people closest to her couldn't spend her birthday with her...
But after a few seconds, Gu Jiayu forced herself to cheer up again. She was worried that her unhappiness would make her brother unhappy as well.
"Brother, do you know why I didn't bring any snacks today?" Gu Jiayu hid her smile, looking as if she had accomplished some big plan.
"Because I'm rich now!" Gu Lu said firmly, "I'll buy you snacks from now on."
Gu Jiayu shook her head, her braids swaying, "No, no, guess again."
"I can't guess, please tell me, lady." Gu Lu said.
"I have saved enough money to fulfill my brother's dream!" Gu Jiayu said. Gu Lu was confused, "My dream?"
"Amusement park, let's go to the amusement park!" said Gu Jiayu.
If his sister hadn't mentioned this, Gu Luzhen would have forgotten that this was indeed his original body's long-standing dream, to go to an amusement park.
The full version of the dream is "Go to the amusement park again with my dad, mom and sister."
The last time I went there was when I was in the sixth grade, and my sister was in the third grade. But when I was in the first grade, my father and mother divorced, so this dream could never be realized. Even my original self gradually forgot about it, but Gu Jiayu still remembered it and secretly saved money.
"Really? I remember the tickets were quite expensive." Gu Lu said.
"Yeah, don't worry, I have saved enough money. Let's go, we'll go this afternoon." Gu Jiayu said.
"Since you have invited me sincerely, I will..."
Before Gu Lu finished speaking, Gu Jiayu quickly took over, "Then I will mercifully agree. In order to prevent the world from being destroyed and to maintain world peace, we are a lovely and charming brother and sister team, Jiajia!"
Then Gu Jiayu looked at her brother. It was obvious that her sister had also watched Pokemon, and she modified the lines of Team Rocket and motioned for Gu Lu to continue.
"Gulu!" Gu Lu felt a little childish, but still said, "We are traveling through the amusement park... the knight's journey."
In short, Gu Lu simply put the dishes and chopsticks in place because he was going to the amusement park.
You know what, Gu Lu is really looking forward to it!
Nanping Amusement Park is different from Happy Valley where you can enjoy any attractions after buying a ticket. In this park, you can choose any ten attractions for 50 yuan per person.
Children between 1.1 and 1.5 meters tall can get half-price tickets, and those under 1.1 meters can get free tickets. Although Gu Lu is not tall, he is over meters. His younger sister Gu Jiayu, who is in the first grade of junior high school, bought a half-price ticket.
The total cost was 75 yuan.
It goes without saying that for a thirteen-year-old girl, it would take a long time to save up this amount of money, especially since she would occasionally bring snacks for her brother.
Walking up a slope, you can see the twelve zodiac animals carved in stone on both sides of the road. The stone carvings have turned green due to their age.
There are ten types of rides, including carousel, roller coaster, rapids, bumper cars, pendulum, and Dumbo.
The roller coaster at Nanping Amusement Park is not very fast and has a low ups and downs, so the excitement is average, but the big pendulum...
"Is Jiayu okay?" Gu Lu looked at his pale sister and felt a little worried.
"It's okay, I'm fine. It's not exciting at all. Let's move on to the next one." Gu Jiayu's voice trembled as she spoke.
"I'm a little tired. Why don't I take a break first?" Gu Lu twisted his neck.
"Tired?" Gu Jiayu emphasized, "Brother, you are tired and need to rest. It has nothing to do with me. I can still continue playing."
"That's right, my limbs are rusty from staying at home all the time, so I need to rest." Gu Lu said.
Gu Jiayu had an expression of "I really can't do anything about you" on her face, and then she found a bench under the shade of a tree not far away and sat down with Gu Lu.
"Brother, is it fun?" Gu Jiayu asked.
"It's so fun." Gu Lu replied.
Hearing this, Gu Jiayu nodded with satisfaction. The small amount of money was not wasted. She felt a little distressed that the small treasury was emptied at once.
Feeling much better now.
During the break, Gu Lu went to buy two bottles of Fatty Happy Water. After sweating, he took a sip of the ice water and felt very comfortable.
"Want to go play?" Gu Lu asked when he saw Gu Jiayu's eyes fixed on the balloon shooting stall.
