In her previous life, Liu Ruonan's greatest desire was to eat a popsicle. However, a popsicle costing only a few cents was a luxury for Liu Ruonan, who could barely afford a meal.
However, in her previous life, she gained power, and a popsicle was nothing to her. She once bought herself many popsicles and devoured them all in one sitting. However, it was no longer the same feeling she had as a child.
Liu Ruonan turned and looked at Gao Shanshan, and said mysteriously, "Do you want to eat popsicles?"
Gao Shanshan looked at her inquiringly: "Is it okay?"
Liu Ruonan just smiled at Gao Shanshan and then stopped the old man.
"Uncle, give me three popsicles." Liu Ruonan said excitedly, leaving the things at the door of her shop. She looked like a refugee, and was in a rather disheveled state.
The old man got off his bicycle, opened the quilt of the foam insulation box, and said, "Okay."
The old man took a look and saw that there were only five popsicles left. He said to Liu Ruonan, "Girl, these are the last five. Buy them all!"
Liu Ruonan agreed very readily: "Okay."
The old man was naturally very happy. Even if he saved the money from buying two more popsicles, it would not make Liu Ruonan rich. He could just regard it as an indirect good deed. Let the old man go home and rest early!
Five cents each, Liu Ruonan gave the old man twenty-five cents, and the old man happily rode away on his bicycle.
The three of them sat on the steps in front of their shop, each with a popsicle, enjoying their delightful snacks. The quiet street was filled with their cheerful laughter.
Perhaps this is the kind of happiness that Liu Ruonan longed for but could not obtain as a child! People often say that eating a popsicle can be a very happy thing, and it turns out that this is really the case.
Liu Ruonan originally planned to let Gao Shanshan and Chen Lei eat two each, but Chen Lei said that he was a grown man and only needed to eat one to cool down.
So, Liu Ruonan and Gao Shanshan ate the second one right after. The cool feeling rushed straight to her head, and Gao Shanshan jumped up and down in joy. At this moment, it seemed as if all the fatigue of the past few days had disappeared.
Gao Shanshan is a sensible and hardworking child. Although she is young, she has been working hard these days. Seeing her happy face, Liu Ruonan is very pleased.
It turns out that happiness is that simple.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning streaked across the dark night sky, followed by a loud thunder.
Gao Shanshan screamed.
"Brother, Sister Ruonan, let's go back quickly! It's going to rain!"
They had to go back. They had just bought bedding, and it would be bad if it got wet. Amidst the roar of thunder, the three of them laughed and screamed as they carried the large and small bags into the backyard.
Chen Lei was a manly man who was not afraid of thunder, so he went out to lock the door of the shop in the front yard. When he returned, he found that the bed in his room had been made.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Liu Ruonan and Gao Shanshan standing on the left and right of the bed.
"Wait, wait, wait..."
Not to mention, although the room is a little small, it is still quite cozy after the bed is made.
Chen Lei scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly.
"You guys are tired after a day, I can do it myself."
Suddenly, another loud thunderclap sounded, followed by the sound of raindrops as big as beans hitting the window. Gao Shanshan leaned over the window, poked her head out, and said to Liu Ruonan:
"Sister, it's raining so hard!"
Liu Ruonan looked at Gao Shanshan's cheerful back and said gently, "We can sleep peacefully in our own little nest tonight."
"Yes!" Gao Shanshan turned around, walked to Liu Ruonan's side, took Liu Ruonan's hand, and said, "Sister, I can't wait any longer. Let's go clean up our room!"
Liu Ruonan nodded and was passively pulled out by Gao Shanshan. She turned to look at Chen Lei and said, "Brother, you should get some rest early. You will be busy tomorrow!"
"Okay." Chen Lei responded.
Outside Chen Lei's room is a partitioned living room. It's not too big, but it's big enough to fit a sofa and a TV. But for now, it's still empty and will need to be gradually regulated in the future.
To one side of the living room is the kitchen and bathroom, which are small but well-planned. Liu Ruonan's design is in line with modern design, which is not common in this era.
Going further, it is Liu Ruonan and Gao Shanshan's room. Their bedroom door is opposite to Chen Lei's bedroom, and the door of the living room leads directly to the yard, so you can go directly to the comprehensive store after leaving the living room.
Liu Ruonan and Gao Shanshan worked together to make the bed. Without having time to pack other things, they couldn't wait to lie down on the comfortable big bed.
Gao Shanshan looked at the lights on the roof, her eyes full of longing.
"sister."
"Yeah." Liu Ruonan also looked at the light on the ceiling, a faint smile on her lips. Slowly, she would let her life continue to move forward on the track she desired.
"This is the first time I've slept in such a large and comfortable bed," Gao Shanshan said. At home, her bed was built by a carpenter. It was a single bed, only 1.2 meters long, and it was covered with a straw mattress. It always made a crackling noise when she slept. It was also very easy for bugs to get into it, so it was common for beetles and other insects to crawl out of the bed.
Although this bed does not have a Simmons mattress, it is covered with a soft mattress and is really comfortable to sleep on.
"If you study hard, you will not only sleep in a more comfortable bed in the future, but also have a bigger and better house to live in." Liu Ruonan said.
In fact, she also knew that she shouldn't push Gao Shanshan too hard on her studies. However, she also deeply understood the truth that knowledge changes destiny. Gao Shanshan was also a good child who was willing to learn, and she hoped that Gao Shanshan could continue to carry forward this strength.
Gao Shanshan nodded heavily, turned to look at Liu Ruonan, her eyes full of sincerity.
"Thank you, sister."
"Thank me for what?"
"You're so nice to me."
"You are my sister!"
"When I grow up, I will definitely treat you as well as my brother."
"And your parents, grandma and grandpa, and our uncles and aunts!"
"Well! Let's live happily together as a family."
"Right! So, we have to work hard!"
"Set out towards happiness!"
"Hahaha!"
The two of them could be heard laughing cheerfully in the room. Chen Lei was lying on his own unusually comfortable bed, listening to the cheerful laughter, and he felt an unprecedented sense of relief in his heart.
Life could be this simple and wonderful. They don't need to ask for too much, just a bed is enough to make them happy. As a grown man, what reason is there not to fight for it?
