Chapter 172 The Silly Mother and Son's Food-Seeking Adventure
The residents of Peach Blossom Town, who have [Fairyland] membership accounts, are eager to try out the new shared bicycles on the streets and join this novel mode of transportation after witnessing them today.
For just one penny, you can easily unlock a horse and enjoy the thrill of riding.
The entire rental process is equipped with voice prompts, making it easy and effortless for people who have experience with facial recognition ordering.
What's even more surprising is that these horses are intelligent and quick-witted, understanding human intentions and obeying commands; if you tell them to go east, they will never go west.
The rider was initially cautious, patiently communicating and getting used to the horse. As they became more proficient in using the commands, they gradually transformed into skilled drivers who could ride freely and roam the streets with ease.
In a very short time, the shared bicycles in the ten public areas were almost completely sold out.
These one hundred magnificent horses traversed the streets and alleys of Peach Blossom Town, appearing in every corner of the town...
Pedestrians walking on the road can often see a fine horse galloping by, accompanied by commands such as "front, back, left, right" from the rider.
This means that shared bicycles became incredibly popular shortly after their IPO!
Today happens to be a day off for Wanlu Academy, so Yuan Youyuan has a rare opportunity to sleep in.
When he woke up, his round belly was growling loudly from hunger.
He hurried to the dining hall, hoping to find some leftovers from the morning.
However, the table was completely empty, not even a single hair was left, which made him so angry that he stomped his feet.
It turned out that Madam Yuan thought Yuan Youyuan would sleep until noon, so she planned to let him have lunch directly and did not prepare breakfast for him.
To everyone's surprise, he got up earlier than usual today.
Yuan You stormed up to Madam Yuan and complained, "Mother, why didn't you leave me any breakfast? I'm starving!"
Madam Yuan knew that eating was of utmost importance to her large, fat son, so she kindly comforted him:
"Son, just bear with it for another half an hour or so before lunch."
Mother has already instructed the servants to go to [Fairyland] later to buy some of your favorite dishes and snacks, so please bear with it for now...
As she spoke, Madam Yuan glanced at Yuan Youyuan's belly, which had grown even larger recently, and thought that with such a big belly, it shouldn't matter if he went hungry for a while.
"No, Mom, listen! My stomach is growling! It says it's starving!"
Yuanbao stretched out its belly, and sure enough, it made a "gurgling" sound again...
Madam Yuan put down her needlework and sighed helplessly, "Well, wait here, I'll have someone heat up some buns for you to fill your stomach..."
She was about to call for the maid when Yuanbao interrupted her.
"Um... Mom, steamed buns aren't enough! Why don't you take me to [Fairyland] to eat them? It's a rare day off, let's go there and eat, okay?"
In fact, Yuanbao had already had this idea in mind. Afraid of being rejected by his mother, he quickly went behind Madam Yuan, rubbing her shoulders while acting coquettishly.
Madam Yuan could easily see through the fat boy's thoughts. Considering that this was his only hobby, she figured she could satisfy him.
Besides, she hadn't been to [Fairyland] for a few days, and the servants said that new shops and new dishes opened there every day, so she could go and try them out...
But she pretended to be hesitant and thought for a long time before agreeing: "If you really want to go, then I will go with you out of the mansion and take a public carriage."
Upon hearing that they still had to walk to catch a carriage, Yuan Youyuan immediately pouted, "Mother, don't we have carriages in our house? It would be so much more convenient to just take the carriage..."
"Look at you, you're getting fatter and fatter. You need to walk more and lose weight! I'm doing this for your health. If you want to go, you have to agree to this condition!"
Madam Yuan has been trying to find ways to get Yuanbao to move around more, but the chubby boy will never move an inch if he can avoid it, so she had to use this as a bargaining chip.
In order to go to the "Fairyland", Yuan Youyuan had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree to his mother's request.
After the mother and son left the Yuan residence, they hadn't walked more than a few steps when the chubby little boy started grumbling again, "Mom, I can't walk anymore, how much further do we have to go?"
"This is just the beginning, there's still a long way to go, we have to walk another half kilometer!"
Madam Yuan didn't give him a chance to beg for mercy and walked straight ahead.
Yuanbao followed behind, sighing and panting.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he saw several horses parked in an area ahead!
"Mother! Wait a minute, I'll go borrow a horse to get around!"
Without waiting for Madam Yuan's response, Yuan Youyuan strode off towards that spot.
"Hey……"
Madam Yuan sighed again. After walking only a few steps, Yuanbao was already thinking about slacking off again.
A moment later, Yuan Youyuan excitedly exclaimed, "Mother! Come and see! This horse is actually provided by [Fairyland]! You should hurry and rent one too!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Yuan went over and saw the notice. It turned out to be the newly launched shared bicycle service in Wonderland.
Both of them were members of [Wonderland], and could rent horses simply by scanning their faces, so they quickly each rented a horse.
Yuan Youyuan pushed off the side pedals hard, straddled the horse, and began to study how to ride it.
"Where are you headed, sir?"
To everyone's surprise, the horse suddenly spoke, startling Yuan Youyuan so much that his flesh trembled.
He composed himself and replied, "I want to go to [Wonderland]!"
"You have excellent taste, sir! They've added a lot of new and delicious food to their menu today!"
There's fragrant barbecue, sweet fruit, and they've even added dumplings and wontons to their menu...
Now, let's get going at full speed!
The smart shared bicycle sensed the passenger's size and even tried to tempt him, making Yuan Youyuan's mouth water.
Wow! I didn't expect that the fairy sister would conjure up so many delicious things after just one day! He has to try them all when he gets there!
The horse beneath him began to move forward, and he finally snapped out of his reverie, remembering that he still had a mother...
He quickly turned around and shouted, "Mother, tell Ma we're going to [Fairyland]!"
Before he could finish speaking, the horse had already pulled him away, speeding towards their destination.
Fortunately, Madam Yuan was not so bad off. She had already told her solo horse the destination and set off after it.
As a result, Madam Yuan's horse caught up with Yuanbao's horse on the way, overtook it, and arrived at the "Fairyland" first.
Seeing this, Madam Yuan laughed and said, "My son, you're too heavy. You've worn out the horse and it can't run fast!"
Yuan Youyuan, who had been excitedly experiencing the thrill of speed and passion, was furious upon hearing these words!
He snorted and walked towards the members' entrance without looking back.
That naughty mother of his, she makes fun of him all the time. He'll have to eat lots of delicious food to vent his anger later!
After playing with her son, Madam Yuan followed Yuanbao into the house as if nothing had happened.
She knew her son's nature well; whenever he saw delicious food, he would greet her with a smile and beg her to pay the bill.
No one knows a son better than his mother. Yuan Youyuan secretly glanced behind him and saw that his mother was following him, so he felt relieved and led the way into the restaurant.
He spotted the newly added second floor at a glance and was certain there were new delicacies there!
As expected, when Yuan Youyuan saw that the entire order screen was filled with dumplings and wontons, he had already put his worries behind him and smiled broadly.
"Mom, which one would you like to eat? These dumplings and wontons look delicious. How about you order a bowl of each and I'll eat them for you if you can't finish them?"
Yuan Youyuan looked at Madam Yuan with anticipation.
Madam Yuan glanced at her son's unseemly gluttonous look, but didn't expose his little scheme. She then began to try ordering, casually replying "Okay."
