"I want to take you somewhere."
"where?"
"You'll see when you get there," the girl said with a sweet smile.
"You're not learning your lesson, are you?" Ye Zhou said with a smile.
An Youhe pushed a rather dilapidated bicycle out of the corner of the yard.
There is a sycamore tree in the courtyard, under which is a small wooden table, and next to the table is a cylindrical wooden stool.
Only then did Ye Zhou hear the honking of geese and the crowing of chickens.
In a corner of the yard, geese and chickens were also kept in enclosures.
Ye Zhou walked over curiously, "You keep these things at home?"
An Youhe pushed the bicycle and carefully wiped the dust off the bike with a rag.
"Meat from animals you raise yourself tastes better."
Ye Zhou chuckled, "Why is your mind filled with nothing but thoughts of food?"
"A single goose can sell for over a hundred yuan!"
Ye Zhou stood by the fence. Inside the fence were about seven or eight geese, all of them plump and strong, and seven or eight hens, pecking at things with their heads down.
Two geese stretched their necks and ran towards him, startling the boy.
...
On one side of the narrow path is a dense forest, and on the other side are fields.
The girl hesitated for a moment in the back seat, then wrapped her arms around Ye Zhou's waist.
Ye Zhou was a little surprised. "Not bad, you're already showing the awareness of having a girlfriend. I have to praise you."
The green fields, the gentle breeze, the warmth of the girl behind me—there's no moment more comforting than this.
The bicycle made several turns on the path before finally finding a way out.
Blue sky, white clouds, and rapeseed fields covering the mountains and plains.
The bicycle was parked to the side.
The two people's palms were clasped together.
Is this what you wanted me to see?
"Mmm." The girl smiled slightly, her eyes crinkling.
Ye Zhou turned to look at the girl beside him, then at the endless rapeseed fields.
He seemed to understand why An Youhe was so naive.
Beautiful scenery can nourish a pure soul!
The girl held Ye Zhou's hand as they walked through the narrow passageways in the rapeseed field.
"When I'm in a bad mood, I come here and it makes me feel better."
Ye Zhou held the girl's hand tightly, their fingers intertwined, and said earnestly, "If you're ever in a bad mood again, I'll come here with you."
The girl pursed her lips shyly.
"Look at these flowers, aren't they beautiful?"
Ye Zhou lowered his eyes to look at the girl's beautiful profile, which was not at all vulgar.
"Yes, it looks great."
Taking his phone out of his pocket, Ye Zhou said, "Shall I take a picture of you?"
The girl immediately panicked, "No, it won't look good in the photos."
Ye Zhou gently patted the girl's head, feeling a pang of heartache. He wondered how much oppression An Youhe had endured to the point that she still lacked a proper understanding of herself.
When will An Youhe be able to become confident?
Ye Zhou bent down, cupped the girl's cheeks in his hands, and stared intently into her clear eyes.
"You're great, Youhe. You're beautiful. Be confident, okay?"
Ye Zhou didn't mind if An Youhe kept belittling herself, and encouraged her time and time again.
Regardless of what happened to the girl before she met Ye Zhou, now that Ye Zhou is her boyfriend, he will naturally protect her, cherish her, and help her become more confident.
In your teens, you don't have to shoulder too much responsibility. Youth is your capital, so don't let yourself become powerless in the prime of your youth.
The girl pursed her rosy lips, looked at Ye Zhou with her doe-like eyes, and nodded slightly.
Ye Zhou's expression softened slightly, and he took the opportunity to kiss the girl's soft red lips several times.
In the rapeseed field, the girl's posture was rather stiff, as if she didn't know how to pose, and her eyes were unfocused.
Ye Zhou slowly taught her how to pose.
The posture is correct, but the expression is still unnatural.
Ye Zhou said, "Just look at me, don't look at the camera."
The photos taken this way are indeed much better.
Ye Zhou scrolled through his phone screen, watching with An Youhe.
There are stunning profile photos of a young girl with her eyes closed, smelling the rapeseed flowers, and full-body photos of her smiling amidst the flower fields.
"How about it? My photography skills are pretty good, right?"
"Yes, it looks good," the girl said, blushing.
Ye Zhou smiled, opened his phone settings, and set the girl's most beautiful photo as his lock screen and desktop wallpaper.
"From now on, I'll see you as soon as I open my phone."
An Youhe turned her slightly flushed face to the side...
"Take a few pictures of me, okay?"
"good."
The girl awkwardly took photos, her heart fluttering as she looked at the boy in the white shirt in the rapeseed field on the screen.
...
On the back of the bicycle on the way back, An Youhe wrapped one arm around the boy's waist and looked at the boy's photos on her phone.
She also set one of Ye Zhou's photos as her wallpaper.
Under the warm sunshine, a boy in a white shirt stands in a field of rapeseed flowers, the wind blowing in his face.
Ye Zhou is like the sun, sometimes warm, sometimes scorching, stirring one's heart.
I rode my bicycle to a street, where stalls lined both sides of the street and pedestrians thronged the middle.
"There are so many people!" Ye Zhou said sincerely, as it seemed difficult to ride a bicycle through.
An Youhe poked her head out and explained, "Today is market day, and many people will be there to buy things."
The girl nimbly jumped off the bicycle seat, and Ye Zhou also got off, pushing the bicycle through the crowd.
You can't ride a bicycle inside.
"Wait for me a minute." An Youhe said, then squeezed to the front of the crowd by herself.
Although Ye Zhou was quite tall, he managed to watch the top of the girl's head disappear into the crowd.
He had no choice but to search for the girl's figure, squeezing through the crowd.
A moment later, An Youhe appeared in front of Ye Zhou, holding two candied hawthorns in her hand.
Ye Zhou smiled, took a candied hawthorn from the girl's hand, and took a bite.
It seems like a long time ago, he told the girl he wanted to eat candied hawthorns, and he never expected to remember it until now.
"Is it delicious?" An Youhe asked.
"tasty."
Even in a crowd, the two of them only had each other's smiles in their eyes, and pink bubbles kept forming.
Then, Ye Zhou noticed an elderly man with gray hair carrying a vegetable basket in front of a vegetable stall, looking at him expressionlessly.
An Youhe noticed Ye Zhou's expression and looked over as well.
"grandmother."
...
There was no food on a medium-sized dining table.
Grandma An sat on one side with a cold face, while Ye Zhou and An Youhe sat on the other side.
Ye Zhou put the gifts he brought from home aside; on the table were a box of strawberries and a box of cherries.
As the saying goes, sincerity is the most powerful weapon.
Ye Zhou said, "Grandma, these are some small gifts I brought for you."
The old woman said sternly, "Don't call me grandma."
"Then, Miss?" Ye Zhou tentatively inquired.
An Youhe secretly took Ye Zhou's hand and said to her grandmother, "Grandma, he is my classmate. He came to see me to discuss the start of school."
"Just classmates?" The old man looked at Ye Zhou with sharp eyes.
