A few people chatted and laughed, eating honey with toothpicks. For a while, everyone was quite happy.
Du Chen's mother saw it but didn't say anything. Kids nowadays are very tough. Climbing a tree or jumping over a wall is a piece of cake for them. They don't care if they get a little cut and bleed.
"Du Bin, you are the oldest among the children, you have to take good care of your younger brothers and sisters!"
Despite this, Du Chen's mother still gave Du Bin some advice.
"Mom, I know, but isn't Ding Miaomiao the same age as me? How come I'm the oldest?"
"What's the matter? Miaomiao is a girl. You are a boy and you don't take care of your younger siblings. Do you feel embarrassed to let others take care of you?"
"Okay Mom! I was wrong!"
Du Bin decisively admitted his mistake.
Just when a few people were chatting happily, Comrade Lao Du walked in carrying a sack.
"Come, come and see what I brought you."
Comrade Lao Du has been going to the city quite often these days. One reason is to stock up the store, and the other is to buy some stainless steel pipes and some small wheels at the textbook market.
Today, Comrade Lao Du went to the small commodity market again and found some interesting things. He thought the things were good, so he bought some and prepared to take them back to try them out.
"Dad, what is this? It's so mysterious. Why don't you tell us? Let us see it for ourselves."
Du Chen asked Comrade Lao Du while opening the sack.
"See for yourself!"
Comrade Lao Du said directly.
"Oops, roller skates!"
Du Chen asked in surprise.
Roller skates are the cheapest kind. They are made of a few pieces of iron plates that are shaped into a shape. The size can be adjusted. You can just put them on your shoes and tie them with plastic ties, and you can play.
In his previous life, roller skates were very popular for a while when he was his age. Du Chen's family was relatively poor, and he begged his parents for a long time but they were reluctant to buy him a pair of roller skates. It was not until the summer was almost over and a pair of roller skates became ten yuan cheaper that he finally got a pair of roller skates.
Nowadays, although the family is not rich, it is much better off than ordinary people. Before Du Chen thought about this matter, Comrade Lao Du had already bought more than a dozen pairs of roller skates. Of course, he bought them in order to make money.
"Come on, all of you try it! See if it's fun!"
Comrade Lao Du looked at the surprised Du Chen and he also felt a sense of accomplishment.
Du Chen ignored everyone else, took out a pair of roller skates, used the tools inside to adjust the size of the skates, put them on his feet, and stood up wearing the skates.
Du Chen turned around to look at Du Bin and the others and found that they were still studying how to adjust the size of the roller skates.
Du Chen hadn't played roller skates for many years. He was still a little uncomfortable when he stood up. He took two tentative steps and almost fell down.
"Haha, Du Chen, there are things you can't do too!"
Liu Yi saw Du Chen almost fall down, and he laughed so hard that his back teeth were visible. He finally found something that Du Chen was not good at, one was painting, and the other was roller skates.
"Tsk, try to get up and see how many times you can fall."
Du Chen was trying to slide, trying to find his balance and the original feeling, while mocking Liu Yi.
"That's not that difficult. Just wait and see how I perform! I'm definitely better than you!"
Liu Yi is full of confidence, and his confidence comes from his weight. He thinks he is much fatter than Du Chen, so his chassis must be more stable than Du Chen.
"I'll wait and see, but first put on your roller skates."
Du Chen slowly regained his feeling and skated more and more smoothly. After finding the feeling, Du Chen stopped skating and stood there watching Liu Yi clumsily adjusting the size of his roller skates, waiting to see Liu Yi make a fool of himself.
"Brother, come and help me."
Gu Yue looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he called Du Chen to come and help.
"Chenchen, help me too!"
Ding Miaomiao also spoke at the right time.
"Okay! I'm coming!"
Du Chen kicked his feet and slid in front of Gu Yue and Ding Miaomiao.
Du Chen was adjusting the size of his roller skates with his hands while explaining how to do it. He was explaining it to Du Bin and Liu Yi. He didn't want to adjust the size of Gu Yue and Ding Miaomiao and then have to adjust the size of Du Bin and Liu Yi as well.
"Come on, sister, give it a try!"
Du Chen adjusted the roller skates for Gu Yue first, let Gu Yue try it out, and then took over Ding Miaomiao's roller skates.
"That's right, brother, but I don't dare to stand up."
Gu Yue said to Du Chen pitifully.
"Sister, don't be afraid. Stand up slowly and lower your center of gravity. Sister Miaomiao, please help her first."
"Come, Yueyue, sister will support you."
Ding Miaomiao immediately reached out and grabbed Gu Yue's little hand, helping Gu Yue to slowly stand up.
Gu Yue just stood up and his body swayed back and forth. Fortunately, Ding Miaomiao supported him, otherwise he would have fallen to the ground.
On the other side, Du Bin also adjusted his roller skates. He just put on the skates and tried to stand up. After swaying for a while, Du Bin stood steadily on the ground again.
"Sister Miaomiao, yours is also adjusted, do you want to try it?"
"No need, I'll stay with Gu Yue first, I'll play later."
Ding Miaomiao said without turning her head. She was busy supporting Gu Yue and was afraid that if she let go, Gu Yue would fall to the ground.
Liu Yi fumbled around for a long time and finally managed to get the roller skates done.
"Liu Yi, come on, I'm waiting to see how you play, come on."
Du Chen is now standing next to Liu Yi, waiting to see Liu Yi make a fool of himself. Yes, Du Chen is so petty.
"Tsk, look at me!"
Liu Yi said this confidently, then he stood up with the help of the bench.
Before everyone could see clearly, Liu Yi sat down on the ground with a "bang".
"Ha ha……"
Everyone laughed out loud at the same time.
Liu Yi's face suddenly turned like a purple eggplant, red with a hint of purple, half out of shame and half out of pain.
Liu Yi sat on the ground, bent his legs and prepared to stand up again, but just as his buttocks left the ground, his feet slipped and he sat down on the ground again.
"Come on, Liu Yi, let me help you up. Go slowly this time. You can't use your buttocks like this even if they have a lot of flesh. Be steady and hold on to the stool. Don't pull me down too."
Du Chen had laughed enough, and Liu Yi had also suffered a loss, so he was no longer waiting to see the joke, so he went over and reached out to hold Liu Yi's hand.
Du Bin lived up to his previous boasting. There was nothing Du Bin couldn't do. In just a short while, Du Bin was already standing steadily and was trying to walk. It was estimated that within an afternoon, Du Bin would be able to skate slowly by himself.
"Come here, Liu Yi, I'll give you a bench. Hold on to it and walk slowly to get a feel for it."
Seeing that Liu Yi still couldn't stand steadily, Du Chen directly helped Liu Yi get a bench and let him hold on to the bench to slowly get the feel for it, just like a child learning to walk.
"Sister Miaomiao, you should go play too. I'll accompany Sister Yueyue!"
Seeing that Du Bin and Liu Yi didn't need his help, Du Chen prepared to go over to help Gu Yue and let Ding Miaomiao try it as well.
At this time, Comrade Lao Du, who had been watching happily from the side, asked Du Chen.
"Chenchen, what do you think of roller skates?"
