Chapter 25 Taking You for a Ride
Success!
This... this is no longer a pedal tricycle, it's a fuel-powered tricycle.
A fuel-powered tricycle that looks like a motorcycle!
"Oh my god, this is also fueled by oil, just like a motorcycle!" Qiangzi said excitedly: "Driving this on a date with my girlfriend is really impressive."
"Of course, next time I make a date, I'll borrow Brother Shen's tricycle, no, motorcycle!"
Guangzi's eyes were fixed on the rumbling tricycle that was emitting black smoke, and he was reluctant to blink.
For him, his biggest dream is to buy a motorcycle.
But the price of the cheapest motorcycle was more than a thousand yuan, and a motorcycle ticket was required, so he simply couldn't afford it.
Now, Shen Lin’s modification suddenly gave him hope.
As long as you follow Shen Lin’s method, even if the modified bicycle is not as cool as a motorcycle, at least you don’t have to pedal.
It is absolutely cool not to have to pedal a bike on a hot day.
"Brother Shen, let me drive for a while." After Shen Lin parked the car, Qiangzi quickly rushed to Shen Lin and shouted loudly.
Shen Lin got off the car directly and let Qiangzi, who was full of excitement, get on the tricycle directly.
As Qiangzi pedaled a few times quickly, there was another roar and the tricycle ran quickly forward.
"Brother Shen, let me drive for a while."
"Brother Shen, my second aunt introduced me to a girl. Let me drive this tricycle to find a date. My brother's happiness depends entirely on me."
"Brother Shen, you are my real brother, let me drive the tricycle for a while."
Shen Lin naturally couldn't refuse these young brothers who contributed their efforts , but his tricycle was originally used to transport goods, so how did it suddenly become a tool for blind dates?
"Brother Shen, I'm looking for an engine. Can you help me modify my Phoenix bicycle?" Guangzi came to Shen Lin and looked at him eagerly.
Shen Lin didn't expect Guangzi's brain to work so quickly. It only took this guy a short while to think of modifying his tricycle.
In response to Guangzi's request, Shen Lin smiled and said, "Isn't this a small matter? Just prepare your things and I'll revise them for you."
"Thank you, Brother Shen. I'll treat you to a drink today." Guangzi rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
Qiangzi and others also realized at this time that as children of workers, they knew very well that Shen Lin's transformation was not too difficult.
"Brother Shen, I'll make one too!"
"Brother Shen, I'll go get the old engine now."
…
After agreeing to one request after another, Shen Lin waved his hand and said, "My brothers have helped me so much today. I won't say thank you anymore. Let's go to the Ermei Restaurant on the outskirts of the factory and have a good drink."
"It's my treat!"
Shen Lin's invitation this time was full of sincerity. After all, everyone helped him solve a lot of difficulties.
With this fuel-powered tricycle, he no longer has to pull a flatbed cart and walk step by step when collecting waste newspapers on a hot day.
"Brother Shen is generous!"
"Thank you, Brother Shen!"
With the farewell of Guangzi and others, Shen Lin stared at his tricycle and roared all the way towards home.
The roaring sound attracted countless eyes. Almost everyone looked at Shen Lin driving the smoking fuel tricycle with an incredible look on their face.
Even most of the young people looked at Shen Lin with envy as he left.
"Xiaorong, Lu Xiaorong!" After stopping the tricycle, Shen Lin was about to lock it and leave, but an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
So, sitting in the car, Shen Lin shouted loudly upwards.
Lu Xiaorong was sitting in a chair reading a book at this time, but she couldn't concentrate on her favorite novel at all.
Her mind was completely occupied by Shen Lin's figure.
Why was Shen Lin called away by those bad friends at this time ? Should I talk to Shen Lin and stay away from Guangzi and others...
Just when Lu Xiaorong was anxiously wondering why Shen Lin hadn't come yet, Shen Lin's voice came through the window.
Putting down the book in her hand, Lu Xiaorong quickly walked towards the window, but when she was at the window, she slowed down and said to the downstairs: "What's the matter?"
"Come down quickly." Shen Lin waved at Lu Xiaorong and said, "I'll take you to do something."
Lu Xiaorong looked out through the window and saw Shen Lin sitting on a tricycle with a welded iron frame, waving at her.
This tricycle is really ugly. It is made of various iron materials of different lengths welded together, and it looks very sturdy.
Although she didn't know what Shen Lin wanted to talk to her about, she was worried that Shen Lin would continue to hang out with those bad friends, so she agreed and went downstairs.
"This tricycle is..." Lu Xiaorong pointed at the tricycle and asked Shen Lin.
"Mine, no, it's ours." Shen Lin patted the back of the tricycle and said, "Get on, I'll take you for a ride."
"Why are you going for a walk in this hot weather? Aren't you tired?" Lu Xiaorong said with a hint of anger.
Listening to Lu Xiaorong's reproach , Shen Lin's heart suddenly felt a little warmer. Although on the surface, Lu Xiaorong had never forgiven him, but now Lu Xiaorong's words made Shen Lin feel that the rift between the two of them was slowly being mended.
"You don't need to pedal my tricycle." Shen Lin waved his hand and said, "You will know when you sit on it."
At Shen Lin's insistence, Lu Xiaorong finally took a small stool and sat on the bed of the tricycle.
As the tricycle started, Lu Xiaorong immediately understood what Shen Lin was bragging about. Although the sound of the fuel tricycle was a bit harsh, Lu Xiaorong still had a different feeling when sitting on the tricycle.
"Is this what you tinkered with?"
"Yeah, it's too tiring to pull a flatbed cart to collect junk, so I asked Guangzi and the others to help me with this." Shen Lin said with a smile: "Wife, I want to ask you something. They have helped so much, I am going to pay two dollars and treat them to a meal to express my gratitude."
Two dollars!
Lu Xiaorong looked at Shen Lin unhappily . She knew that Shen Lin did this on purpose in order to get her to allow him to spend more.
Lu Xiaorong was very pleased with Shen Lin's little trick. She coughed and said, "It's a bit too little for you to spend two dollars to treat someone who is helping you like this."
"I think you can order something nice for five bucks."
Shen Lin pretended to be bitter and said, "Wife, they and I are brothers from the same family. Isn't it a bit too much to spend on the dinner?"
Lu Xiaorong's brain couldn't keep up with Shen Lin's rhythm for a while. They were all brothers, shouldn't they eat something good? Why did he spend less when treating his own brothers?
"I told you to have a good meal, so have a good meal."
After saying this, Lu Xiaorong stopped talking. It was already evening, the heat of the sun had gone away, and as the tricycle drove, gusts of breeze kept blowing Lu Xiaorong's hair.
Lu Xiaorong, who was sitting on the tricycle, even hoped that the tricycle would keep running and never stop.
But just as her mind was flying, she felt her stomach getting uncomfortable again. She quickly covered her mouth, but still retched.
Although Shen Lin was driving a tricycle, he still heard it. He quickly stopped the car and asked, "Xiao Rong, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, maybe the smell of gasoline choked my nose." Lu Xiaorong forced a smile. At this time, she was already beginning to feel a little worried.
Shen Lin looked at Lu Xiaorong who was looking down, wondering if he should tell her that she was pregnant at this time. In the end, Shen Lin chose to take it step by step, so he said to Lu Xiaorong: "Why don't we go to the hospital for a check-up?"
"No need, I'll just go home and rest for a while." Lu Xiaorong waved his hand.
Seeing Lu Xiaorong's persistence, Shen Lin smiled and said, "Then let's go back and rest first."
