The east is beginning to appear white, the sun has just woken up from sleep, and pieces of morning glow hang on the black sky.

Long Yun looked up at the brighter and brighter east, tightened the bag on his back with his right hand, and raised his left hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead.

At this time, he was resting against a rocky on the side of the road, and the bag on his back weighed him a little, which were all dry food and a change of clothes prepared for him by his parents before leaving the house.

Obviously, at the age of eleven, he should have stayed with his parents or attended a certain school, but the family was really poor and couldn't open the pot, and he also had a younger sister, as the saying goes, the eldest was in charge early.

When his father was worried about the family's livelihood, Uncle Wang Tianshun, who had just returned from wandering outside, said that now he was making a lot of money outside, and many children of the same age in the village had gone out to work, which not only solved his own living problems, but also earned money to send home.

"Lao Wang, this child is too young, he has never been far away, he won't suffer if he goes out!" Long Yun's father poured tea for Uncle Wang with a Tuba bowl and asked.

"The dragon baby is younger, I think this kid is quite smart. It's a pity, his reading grades are so good, he should be allowed to finish junior high school before going out. Lao Wang said regretfully.

"I can't bear to let the baby go out and suffer at such a young age, but look at our situation, hey!" Long Yun's father sighed, helplessly silent, and the wrinkles on the farmer's face, which looked obviously a little older than his actual age, suddenly deepened a little.

The air seemed to freeze all at once, and all that was heard in the room was the sound of breathing. Even Long Yun's six-year-old sister, who usually loves to cry and make trouble, suddenly quieted down.

"You have to go by yourself, I don't want the boss to go out and suffer so early." Long Yun's mother said to her father with red eyes.

"Don't you make a fuss? I can't help it, just do you know that I feel sorry for the boss? Long Yun's father said in a somewhat stiff tone.

"Anyway, I won't let the boss go out so young!" Mother said with tears streaming down her face. Seeing this, Long Yun's little sister also cried with her mother.

"Old Dragon, what is the matter with you husband and wife, hey, hey!" Lao Wang saw that the couple felt so sorry for the child, and he didn't know what to say.

Just when Uncle Wang was embarrassed and didn't know how to comfort Long Yun's mother, Long Yun, who had been staying aside and not speaking, spoke.

"Dad, Mom, don't fight, I don't want to study anymore, I want to go out to work and go to the outside world." Long Yun's words broke the deadlock just now.

"Boss, do you really think so?" The father looked up, a satisfied smile on his face. For the eldest son in the family, he knows the child's heart best. Honesty and obedience have always been his most reassuring place, but it is also where he is a little worried, the child is honest by nature, and he is afraid that he will suffer after he goes out.

"Yes, Dad. I'm not young anymore, I heard Uncle Wang say that the money outside is very easy to make money, I'll go out to work and send you money back," Long Yun said with confidence.

In fact, he didn't know anything about the outside world, but he just read a few more extracurricular books when he was studying.

"Since you are willing, let your Uncle Wang take you out, take care of yourself more, and often bring back a message." The father's embarrassed expression finally eased a little, and the wrinkles stretched slightly.

Long Yun's mother saw that the child was willing to go out, although she couldn't bear the child to go out to work so early and endure hardships, but due to the pressure of life at home, there was no better way than reluctance, but she was red and tearful, and did not say anything to stop it.

Long Yun was also reluctant to give up on his parents, but as the boss, he didn't have much choice, although he still had some memories of school, but he also had to face the reality and end his studies early.

Thinking that he was about to get out of this poor and backward small mountain village and go outside to the world, Long Yun's mood couldn't help but start surging again.

The eastern sky was full of sunshine, a round of red sun was rising, the sunlight was projected on his immature face, and there were bursts of light, bathed in this morning sun, Long Yun had an indescribable refreshment.

He let out a long sigh of relief, and suddenly remembered that Uncle Wang was still waiting for him in the town, so he hurriedly picked up his bag and continued to rush in the direction of the town.

At about half past seven in the morning, Long Yun, who was carrying a bag on his back, appeared at the only waiting point in the center of the town, and Long Yun had been on the mountain road for nearly three hours from Longjiazhai to here.

But for Long Yun, who had to walk back and forth every day when he was studying, this little road was just a piece of cake.

Judging from their honest smiles and the dress that was obviously behind the people in the city, it was obvious that most of them were the mountain people of the town, and they carried the bulging woven bags on their backs that each had enough to wrap and change of clothes and bedding for several days.

Long Yun was easy compared to them, because Uncle Wang promised to help him solve the bedding problem.

Seeing a childish teenager, the villagers waiting for the bus were a little surprised, and some people began to speculate in their hearts whose children are going to study in the city or to join a relative, it is not uncommon for children in their teens to go out in this year, and those who go to the city to study, and those who seek relatives and friends abound.

Long Yun stood in the crowd, waiting for the first minibus in the town to go to the city. That is the only link between this rural town and the county seat.

"Dragon baby, come here!" A middle-aged man's deep voice sounded in the crowd, and Long Yun's heart moved when he heard the voice, this was Uncle Wang's voice. He followed the sound and saw that Uncle Wang, dressed in a suit and tie, with a small leather bag around his waist, was standing at the front of the waiting point and beckoning to him.

Uncle Wang's dress today is obviously different from when he saw him a few days ago, just like a decent person in the city.

As soon as the people waiting for the bus saw Uncle Wang waving to Long Yun, they all made way for him, obviously there was some kind of special relationship between this manly dressed man and this child. It's too late for them to stammer, so how can they offend?

"Uncle Wang!" Long Yun shouted happily and hurriedly ran towards the middle-aged man.

"Long Wazi, come here, the car is coming!" The middle-aged man urged Long Yun.

"Oh, isn't this Wang Tianshun, it seems that he has made a lot of money outside?" An old lady in her fifties and sixties in the crowd said in surprise.

The middle-aged man also raised his head in slight surprise, and he carefully identified it before he suddenly realized: "Second aunt, you have also entered the city, you look at my memory, even your family can't recognize it." ”

"Your cousin works in the county and called me to stay at his house for a few days. Hey, I'm so old that I can't go to the city a few times, so I'm thinking I'd better stay for a few days. Only then did everyone take a closer look at the old lady, and they found that her luggage was obviously much lighter than the others, and that she had obviously gone into the city often and had seen some of the world.

At this time, Long Yun also came to the middle-aged man's side.

"Tianshun, whose child is this?" The old lady looked at Long Yun, who was standing beside Wang Tianshun, and asked.

"My neighbor Long Kaiguo's eldest son, ask me to take him out to break through!" Wang Tianshun glanced at Long Yun and said.

"Tianshun, you have to take care of other people's children, don't let him learn badly outside!" The old lady reached out and touched Long Yun's head and said.

"Second aunt, don't worry, Long Kaiguo is my eldest brother, and his child is my child, and he will definitely take care of it!" Wang Tianshun patted the old lady's chest and said.

Long Yun, who was standing next to him, chuckled in his heart, why hadn't he heard his father say that he had worshiped Uncle Wang, although worshipping a son was not too unusual in their small mountain village. But he also knew that this was a kind of family rule in some families, but their Long family didn't seem to have heard their father mention such a rule.

Just when Long Yun had been wondering in his heart, a beeping car horn sounded, and a blue and white minibus drove over from the town parking station and stopped steadily in front of Long Yun and them.

"Long Wazi, get in the car," Uncle Wang said, pulling a handful of Long Yun's clothes.

Long Yun suppressed his excitement and followed Wang Jiashun on the minibus to the county seat.

The car sped all the way on the winding road, facing the rising sun, with Long Yun's dream, and speeding away in the direction of the county seat.
