Chapter 400 Zhao Shuzhuo Learns to Ride a Bicycle
He kept recalling Wang Jianguo's teachings in his mind and tried to adjust his posture and strength.
Time passed by minute by minute, and more than an hour passed in a flash. During this time, Zhao Shuzhuo practiced repeatedly, from the initial trembling to gradually finding a sense of balance.
At this time, he has basically mastered the skills of riding a bicycle, although the riding process is still a little unstable and the body of the bicycle still shakes.
But he was able to advance a distance relatively smoothly, which made Zhao Shuzhuo feel full of accomplishment and a confident smile on his face.
When the two figures finally appeared at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, the sun had already quietly climbed to the zenith and it was almost noon.
In the supply and marketing cooperative, the originally busy staff had already dispersed and went home to enjoy lunch.
In the empty space, only He Yushui was left sitting quietly in the corner, looking towards the door from time to time, waiting for the two to return.
Seeing them coming back, He Yushui immediately stood up and walked quickly towards them, with a hint of anger on her face:
"Why did you come back just now? It's already so late. They all went home to eat, and I'm the only one left waiting here. Let's not dawdle any longer and go back quickly."
When Zhao Shuzhuo saw He Yushui, he was so excited that his eyes sparkled and he couldn't wait to say:
"Yushui, you may not know that Jianguo taught me how to ride a bicycle today! I was a little scared at first, worried that I wouldn't be able to learn it. After all, those two wheels looked hard to control."
"But Jianguo was very patient and explained to me step by step the essentials of riding a bike, from how to hold the handlebars, to how to pedal, to how to keep your body balance."
"I followed his method and tried again and again. After falling down, I got up and continued practicing. Hey, I didn't expect that I actually learned it!"
He Yushui was delighted when she heard this, and a bright smile appeared on her face:
"Really? Brother Zhao, this is great! I was thinking that if Brother Jianguo didn't have time, I would come and teach you in the afternoon."
"I didn't expect you to be so good and learn it so quickly."
There was a hint of admiration in her eyes, as if she could see Zhao Shuzhuo practicing riding a bike hard under the scorching sun.
His clothes were soaked with sweat, but he still persevered. His tenacity was touching.
Zhao Shuzhuo's heart was filled with joy and pride after learning to ride a bike. He was eager to show off in front of He Yushui to prove that he had mastered this new skill.
His eyes sparkled with excitement, his cheeks flushed slightly with excitement, he reached out and grabbed He Yushui's arm, and said hurriedly:
"Come on, come on, Yushui, you must come out with me. I want to show you that I really can ride a bicycle, and I'm not just bragging!"
As he spoke, he quickly dragged He Yushui out of the supply and marketing cooperative.
He looked so impatient, as if he was going to perform a wonderful driving show in front of everyone in the next second.
Wang Jianguo watched Zhao Shuzhuo's impatient look from the side, and hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his arm, and blocked Zhao Shuzhuo's way.
He frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness and a smile on his face, and began to persuade:
"Okay, Brother Zhao, don't worry. We still have to go home to cook. My family must be waiting for us to go back and have dinner."
"Look, why don't we just ride home? That way, the rain on the road will be able to clearly see you riding your bike, right?"
"It's a two-for-one deal, why bother wasting time here?"
Zhao Shuzhuo was stunned when Wang Jianguo stopped him. Then, as if he suddenly reacted, he raised his hand and slapped his forehead, making a crisp "pop" sound.
He showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face, smiled a little embarrassedly, and said:
"Oh, yes! Look at my brain. I forgot all about it when I got excited."
"Jianguo, you are really thoughtful. Okay, let's ride home and let the rain have a good look at my power!"
After Zhao Shuzhuo finished speaking, he strode out of the supply and marketing cooperative with an eagerness and excitement that was difficult to conceal.
It was as if there was a big stage outside waiting for him to show off his cycling skills.
Seeing this, Wang Jianguo did not dare to delay at all. He quickly pushed out another bicycle and followed behind Zhao Shuzhuo.
He Yushui calmly and carefully locked the door of the supply and marketing cooperative at the back. After making sure that everything was safe, he walked lightly to Wang Jianguo's bicycle.
She leaned sideways and sat on the back seat. Then, the two of them rode the bike, facing the breeze, slowly heading towards home.
Along the way, the sunlight shone on them through the mottled leaves, forming patches of light and shadow.
Zhao Shuzhuo was riding in front. Although his posture was still a little unfamiliar, he was able to control the balance of the bicycle well. His back looked particularly firm in the sun.
Wang Jianguo followed steadily behind, chatting with He Yushui from time to time.
When they got home, He Yushui looked at Zhao Shuzhuo who got off his bicycle with a little pride on his face, and praised him sincerely:
"Brother Zhao, you are so smart! It has only been a short period of time and you have learned to ride a bicycle so well. It took me a lot of effort to learn it."
When Zhao Shuzhuo heard the compliment, his face flushed slightly, and he waved his hand modestly and said:
"Oh, it's not bad. I've just started, and I need more practice. I can't lead anyone yet. When I become more skilled, I'll take you out for a ride on my bike."
He Yushui laughed at his words, her eyes curved into crescents. She nodded slightly, then turned around and walked quickly into the kitchen.
Not long after, He Yushui, like a magical wizard, brought out two steaming dishes and a basket of freshly steamed buns from the kitchen.
Seeing the two of them wash their hands and sit down, she explained apologetically:
"We still have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the afternoon. Time is tight, so let's just have a simple bite to fill our stomachs first."
After that, she handed the chopsticks to the two of them. The three of them sat around the table and began to enjoy this simple but warm lunch. The room was filled with the aroma of food and their laughter.
Wang Jianguo sat at the table, holding a steamed bun in his hand. He picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. While chewing, he slowly said to Zhao Shuzhuo and He Yushui:
"In the afternoon, you two can go to the supply and marketing cooperative as usual. I have something else to take care of here."
He Yushui heard this and blurted out subconsciously:
"Brother Jianguo, what are you doing?"
As soon as she said this, a trace of annoyance flashed across her eyes. She blamed herself in her heart for being so out of control.
Brother Jianguo must have something that is not convenient to talk about, and it is really inappropriate for me to ask him rashly like this.
