Mei Fang led Xia Yuan to sneak out of the community and went to a football lottery store opened at the entrance of the community, and the boss murdered the children as soon as they saw them come in.

"Go, go, what are children doing in a place like this! Get out! ”

Seeing that the owner of the football lottery shop was vicious, Xia Yuan subconsciously hid behind Mei Fang, grabbing Mei Fang's back, and Mei Fang looked very down-to-earth and generous.

"Hello uncle, I helped my dad run errands and buy enough lottery tickets."

"Running errands......"

The rules and regulations of the small county town for several years are very lax, and adults also like to support children to run errands, such as buying cigarettes and lottery tickets are common, and by the way, bring a little five cents to run errands.

Anyway, if you really win the lottery, it is impossible for such a young child to claim the prize by himself.

So the boss asked, "Then hurry up and buy it...... What to buy? ”

"My dad wants to buy the top 4 lottery, is there still a sale?"

"Coincidentally, today is the last day of the semi-finals, did your father tell you to choose those teams?"

"Say it! I remember. ”

In 2002, the Football Lottery released a lot of gameplay, the most simple and straightforward of which is the 16 strong competition, the top 8 and the top 4 guessing.

The 16 strong competition is actually a collection of winning and losing lottery, to guess the winner or loser of all the games in the knockout stage within 90 minutes, and you can get the first prize if you guess all right, and the prize money is as high as 2 million.

However, the odds of winning the lottery are 1/3 to the power of 16 in terms of probability, which is already an infinite number close to 0.

The top 8 guessing game only needs to guess the football team that advanced to the top 8, and only the first prize was set for this award that year, with a betting amount of up to 125 million, but no one in the country won the lottery, the reason is that dark horses are frequent, and one of the teams has only 1% support.

Note that the top 8 guess is to select the top 8 from 32 teams instead of 16 to choose 8, and if you get it wrong, you won't be able to win, and the probability of winning is quite low.

For Mei Fang, the only thing he can guess and remember is the semi-final team in 02.

"The champion picks samba ...... The runner-up Debang, the third runner-up Tuji...... The temple army stick? Are you sure your dad picked these four teams? I'm not mistaken, you can't change your ticket once you hit it. ”

Mei Fang nodded to the shopkeeper, "That's what my dad said, I remember it clearly!" ”

"Then don't you go back, how much bet do you make? 2 dollars a bet. ”

"5 bets, buy all of the same."

"Here's it."

Mei Fang asked for the purchased lottery ticket from the shopkeeper, and Xia Yuan kept pulling the corner of his clothes during the period, "Okay...... Can you go? ”

"Alright, alright, let's go."

Mei Fang was satisfied with getting the wealth code after his rebirth, but Xia Yuan seemed very unhappy.

"Mei Fang, you are so bad, you borrowed my money to buy this thing, and you lied to the uncle just now, saying that you were helping your father run errands......"

"I'm not lying, I'm supposed to run errands for my dad." Mei Fang stuck out his tongue.

"Then why didn't your dad give you money?"

"My dad has no money, the money is all in my mother's, and I will pay you back later."

"How can an adult have no money, I don't believe it."

Xia Yuan puffed out her cheeks and looked very unhappy, and Mei Fang thought about it and felt a little embarrassed to lie to her.

"Okay, okay, we're done, now we can go on an adventure together!"

"Isn't the adventure you were talking about?" Xia Yuan tilted his head in confusion.

"That's just an errand run." Mei Fang wiped his nose, "From now on, we will call it a real adventure." ”

Hearing Mei Fang's words, Xia Yuan's originally annoyed and frowning brows relaxed, and his small mouth rose slightly, "I, we...... Where to go? ”

"Follow me."

Mei Fang led Xia Yuan around the street, he thought that this kind of child must not have gone shopping alone, just walk around and go back to the community.

Although it is a street that he often walks hand in hand with his parents, Xia Yuan is full of curiosity about everything around him.

A child at this age has a lot of things she wants to try, but her parents always stop her on the grounds that she is not safe.

Cats in the windows of pet shops, old stone bridges over rivers, noisy and bustling street markets.

The more crowded the place, Xia Yuan pulled the corners of Mei Fang's clothes tighter, and Xia Yuan walked slowly, almost not tearing Mei Fang's clothes.

"What are you doing so hard?"

Xia Yuan explained hesitantly, "If you suddenly disappear, I won't be lost......

Mei Fang thought for a while, "Then you hold my hand, don't pull the corner of your clothes." ”

"Good!"

Xia Yuan clenched Mei Fang's hand, and the temperature transmitted by her palm suddenly made her feel much more relieved.

At the end of the downtown area, there was a vendor selling cotton candy, Xia Yuan stopped here, watching the marshmallow boss make cotton candy on the spot, and the surrounding children formed a circle, and the big book on it was priced at 2 yuan a piece.

"You want to eat this?"

Xia Yuan nodded, "However, my mother never bought it for me." ”

"You can't buy this, you can't buy that, how tired you are...... With so much money in your wallet, what can you buy? ”

"Stationery, stickers, etc., ......"

Mei Fang sighed and said, "It's a pity that I don't have money, if I have money, I will definitely invite you to eat marshmallows." ”

"Hmm...... In this way, I have money, I can lend it to you first, and you can buy it for me. ”

“……”

Mei Fang watched this silly girl take out 2 coins from her bag and put them in her hand, looking full of anticipation.

"Uncle, I want a marshmallow."

Mei Fang handed the marshmallow he bought to Xia Yuan, "Here, I'll ask you." ”

"Thank you...... But the marshmallow is so big that I can't eat it all by myself, so let's eat it together, shall we? ”

"I don't need to, you eat it yourself."

Xia Yuan took a bite of the marshmallow and was immediately shocked by the melt-in-your-mouth taste.

"It melts as soon as you lick it, it's so greasy, it's delicious!"

"If you like it......"

Although she is a child of a rich family, she is just a little girl who has never seen the world.

Xia Yuan put all her thoughts on eating marshmallows, and her other hand was still being pulled by Mei Fang, not surprisingly, she ate a flower-faced kitten because of a lot of marshmallows stuck to her face.

Since then, Xia Yuan has been crying and worried about being discovered by her mother, and it was only when Mei Fang took her back to the washstand in the community to wash her face that she stopped.

Seeing the sunset and the smoke curling, the community can already smell the aroma of home-cooked rice from every household.

Xia Yuan and Mei Fang sat on a bench in the community to rest, Xia Yuan was wiping his face with a handkerchief, and Mei Fang was bathed in the dusk sunset.

The temperature in June was just right, and the sound of snacks in a dialect outside the community came from far and near, as if the feeling of being in a different world spontaneously arose, Mei Fang subconsciously closed his eyes and enjoyed the tranquility of the moment.

It's been a long time since I've had such a laid-back time......

When Mei Fang opened his eyes, he found Xia Yuan holding his cheek with one hand, staring at him curiously.

"Mei Fang, what are you thinking?"

Mei Fang said bluntly, "I'm thinking about how I can make a lot of money in the future." ”

Xia Yuan's cheeks suddenly puffed out, "Your dreams are too boring!" ”

"And what do you want to do when you grow up?"

"I'm ......" Xia Yuan thought for a while and replied, "In the future, I want to be an elementary school teacher like my mother." ”

"So your mother is a teacher? Why do you want to do this......

Based on Mei Fang's understanding of Xia Yuan, he thought that Xia Yuan, who had the character of a little angel, would say something like being a gardener with selfless dedication to burn himself to illuminate others.

However, Xia Yuan's answer surprised Mei Fang very much.

"Because, there are many holidays as a teacher, Saturdays, Sundays, summer vacations, winter vacations, Mid-Autumn Festival, New Year's Day, and I get off work very early, my mother is like this, so relaxed!"

Well...... I have to say that the child's thoughts are really pure.

Mei Fang gently tapped Xia Yuan's head.

"Why are you hitting me......"

Although he looked aggrieved, Xia Yuan didn't really cry.

"You said you wanted to be a teacher, but it didn't turn out that you were trying to play."

"Wait a minute, I'm not done yet......" Xia Yuan talked about his future plans with great interest, "Moreover, if you become a teacher, you can get along with the children for the rest of your life, we go on an outing together, I will only assign a little homework, and ah......"

Mei Fang never imagined that one day she would be like this, listening to children talk about her life ideals.

Strangely, he didn't feel the slightest bit impatient.

The two children chatted like this, most of the time it was Xia Yuan who was talking, Mei Fang occasionally interjected, chatting and chatting Xia Yuan's tiredness gradually attacked, and his speech was a little slurred.

When Mei Fang was about to ask her if she wanted to go home, Xia Yuan fell on Mei Fang's shoulder and fell asleep tiredly.

……

Mei Fang did not rush to wake her up immediately, but maintained such a posture for some time.

Blowing the pleasant and refreshing evening breeze at the beginning of summer, Mei Fang pondered.

Maybe in that distant past life, Xia Yuan also had such an innocent time with himself, and that time has been completely forgotten by him under the washing of the years.

But whether it is a real past or not, it is always a present that is happening.

And now he will definitely cherish it.
