Mei Fang led Xia Yuan to sneak out of the community and went to a football betting store opened at the entrance of the community. The boss beat them up when he saw the children coming in.

"Go, go, what are children doing in this kind of place! Get out!"

Seeing the ferocious look of the soccer betting shop owner, Xia Yuan subconsciously hid behind Mei Fang, clutching Mei Fang's back tightly, while Mei Fang looked very generous.

"Hi Uncle, I'm helping my dad run errands to buy lottery tickets."

"Running errands..."

The rules and regulations of the small county town in 2000 were very lax, and the adults also liked to make the children run errands, like buying cigarettes and lottery tickets, and they gave me 50 cents for running errands.

Anyway, if he really won the lottery, it would be impossible for such a young child to claim the prize by himself.

So the boss asked: "Then hurry up and buy it...what do you want to buy?"

"My dad wants to buy the top 4 lottery, is it still on sale now?"

"Coincidentally, today is the last day of tickets for the top four, did your father tell you which teams to choose?"

"I said it! I remember it."

In 2002, the Football Lottery issued a lot of playing methods, the most simple and straightforward ones were the top 16 competition, the top 8 and the top 4 quiz.

The top 16 competition is actually a collection of lottery tickets. If you guess all the games in the knockout stage within 90 minutes, you will win the first prize, which is as high as 2 million.

However, in terms of probability, this chance of winning is 1/3 to the 16th power, which is already a number infinitely close to 0.

The top 8 quiz game only needs to guess the football team that advances to the top 8. Back then, this award only set the first prize, and the betting amount was as high as 125 million. However, no one in the country won the prize. The reason is that there are frequent dark horses. Only 1% support.

Note that the top 8 quiz is to select the top 8 from 32 teams instead of 8 out of 16. If you make a mistake, you will not be able to win the prize, and the probability of winning is quite low.

For Mei Fang, the only thing he can guess and remember is the semi-finals in 2002.

"The champion chooses Samba... the runner-up is Debon, the third place is Tuji... the third place is Bangzi? Are you sure that your father chose these four teams? I remember correctly, you can't change the ticket after you vote."

Mei Fang nodded to the store owner, "My father said these four, I remember them clearly!"

"Then don't regret it, how much to bet? One bet is 2 yuan."

"5 bets, all buy the same."

"Here, here you are."

Mei Fang asked for the purchased lottery ticket from the owner of the shop, during which Xia Yuan kept tugging on his clothes, "Okay... can I go now?"

"All right, all right, let's go."

Mei Fang was content to get the wealth code after her 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 that uncle just now, saying that you were running errands for Dad..."

"I'm not lying, I was originally helping my father run errands." Mei Fang stuck out her tongue.

"Then why doesn't your father give you money?"

"My father has no money, all the money is with my mother, and I will pay you back later."

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

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

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

"The adventure you mentioned, isn't it the one just now?" Xia Yuan tilted her head in confusion.

"That was just running errands." Mei Fang wiped his nose, "From now on, we are called real adventures."

After hearing Mei Fang's words, Xia Yuan's brows that were originally furrowed in anger relaxed, and her pouty mouth slightly raised, "Where are we, where are we going?"

"follow me."

Mei Fang led Xia Yuan around the street. He thought that this kind of child must not have gone shopping alone, so he just strolled around and returned 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.

There are many things that a child of this age wants to try, but her parents always stop her on the grounds that she is unsafe.

The cats in the window of the pet shop, the old stone bridge over the river, the noisy and bustling street market.

The more crowded the place was, Xia Yuan pulled the corner of Mei Fang's clothes tighter, Xia Yuan walked slowly, and almost tore Mei Fang's clothes to pieces.

"What are you trying so hard for?"

Xia Yuan hesitated and explained, "If you disappeared suddenly, I would be lost..."

Mei Fang thought for a while, "Then hold my hand, and don't tug at the hem of my clothes."

"good!"

Xia Yuan clenched Mei Fang's hand, and the warmth from the palm immediately made her feel much more at ease.

At the end of the bustling city, there was a peddler selling cotton candy. Xia Yuan stopped here and watched the cotton candy boss making cotton candy on the spot. The children around him formed a circle, and the big book on it was priced at 1 yuan each. root.

"You want to eat this?"

Xia Yuan nodded, "But, my mother never buys it for me."

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

"Stationery and stickers and such..."

Mei Fang sighed, "Unfortunately, I don't have any money. If I had money, I would treat you to cotton candy."

"Well... how about this, I have money, I can lend it to you first, and then you can buy it for me."

"..."

Mei Fang watched the silly girl take out 2 coins from her bag and handed them to her with a look of anticipation.

"Uncle, I want a cotton candy."

Mei Fang handed the marshmallows she bought to Xia Yuan, "Here, I invite you."

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

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

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

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

"As long as you like it..."

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

Xia Yuan put all her mind on eating marshmallows, and Mei Fang was still holding her other hand. Not surprisingly, she ate into a colorful kitten because of the many marshmallows stuck to her face.

Since then, Xia Yuan has been crying for fear of being discovered by her mother, and it was only when Mei Fang took her back to the sink in the community to wash her face that she calmed down.

Seeing the setting sun and the smoke from the kitchen, the home-cooked food of every household can already be smelled in the community.

Xia Yuan and Mei Fang were sitting on a bench in the community to rest, Xia Yuan was wiping his face with a handkerchief, and Mei Fang was bathing in the evening sun.

The temperature in June was just right, and the sound of snacks hawking in a dialect outside the community came from far to near, as if the feeling of another life came spontaneously. Mei Fang subconsciously closed her eyes, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

It's been a long time since I experienced such a leisurely time...

When Mei Fang opened his eyes, he found Xia Yuan was staring at him curiously with his chin resting on one hand.

"Mei Fang, what are you thinking about?"

Mei Fang said bluntly, "I was thinking, how can I make a lot of money in the future."

Xia Yuan suddenly puffed up her cheeks, "Your dream is too boring!"

"Then what do you want to be when you grow up?"

"Me..." Xia Yuan replied after thinking for a while, "In the future, I want to be a primary school teacher just 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 is a little angel, would say something like being a selfless gardener and burning himself to illuminate others.

However, Xia Yuan's answer surprised Mei Fang.

"Because, being a teacher has a lot of holidays, Saturdays, Sundays, summer vacation, winter vacation, Mid-Autumn Festival, New Year's Day, and getting off work very early. My mother is like this, so relaxed!"

Hmm... I have to say, the child's thoughts are really pure.

Mei Fang tapped Xia Yuan's head lightly.

"Why did you hit me..."

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

"You said you wanted to be a teacher, but it turned out that you didn't want to be playful."

"Wait a minute, I haven't finished yet..." Xia Yuan talked about her future plans enthusiastically, "Besides, if I become a teacher, I can spend my whole life with the children. Let's go on an outing together. I will only Assign a little homework, and ah..."

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

Strangely, he didn't feel a little impatient.

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

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

...

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

Mei Fang was thinking while blowing the comfortable and refreshing evening wind in Lixia.

Perhaps in that distant past life, Xia Yuan also had such an innocent time with himself, and that time has been washed away by the years, and he has completely forgotten it.

But whether it is the past that actually happened or not, it is always the present that is happening.

But now, he will definitely cherish it.
