Chapter 1: Childhood Chapter 1: Mischievous

  Outside the broken temple, Yuan Huan was delighted when he heard this. He thought to himself, "Just wait till tomorrow, I won't let you return even the principal with interest, or else my name's not Yuan Huan!" Hmph!

  This sent Wang Dafu away, and Huang's dad quickly carried Da Sha on his back.

  "Come on, let's take this child back to our home. This broken temple can't even keep out the wind and rain. Let's take him in and nurse him back to health. He can live with us from now on. Poor thing, this child."

  Yuan Hua said with a scowl, "What's the point of him coming to our house to live? We don't have room for him, and besides, he stinks all over."

  Hao's father heard this and scolded loudly: "It's all because of you, if it weren't for you, this child wouldn't be covered in filth. You have nowhere to live, is that right? Then tonight you'll go to the ancestral hall to reflect on your past mistakes, and come back tomorrow. This will serve as punishment for you."

  Yuán Hào's face turned red with rage as soon as he heard this, his anger and fury surging up like steam. He was a stubborn and unyielding person, just like his father when he was young, never willing to admit defeat or show weakness. Even when he was beaten, he would grit his teeth and endure it silently, never shedding tears or begging for mercy.

  "Go if you must go! Good riddance, I think you're too stupid anyway!"

  Like this, Huo's father carried Da Sha, and Yuan Huo followed at the end, thinking about how to deal with Da Sha in the future, as well as that "evil doctor" Wang, to vent his anger. After more than half a bell, they arrived home.

  Yu Hao didn't say a word, nor did he eat anything. He then hugged his quilt and walked alone to the Yu family ancestral hall. The so-called ancestral hall was actually just a small earthen house for worshiping ancestors' spirit tablets. Upon arriving at the ancestral hall, it turned out to be only about 10 square meters in size, with nothing inside except for an offering table, let alone a bed.

  "Alas, forget it, let's just sleep on the floor."

  As he spoke, he threw the quilt on the ground and lay down without even taking off his shoes. He propped up his head with his arm, thinking about what had happened today, but still couldn't figure it out in his mind.

  After a while, I was so hungry that I couldn't sleep, tossing and turning. I got up to find something to eat, saw some fruit on the altar, quickly climbed onto the altar, picked up the fruit, didn't care if it was clean or not, and stuffed it into my mouth.

  Just as I was enjoying myself, I suddenly heard someone calling me "Huang Er, open the door, Mom has brought you some food."

  As soon as Yuan Hui heard his mother's voice, he quickly got down from the table, opened the door, and snatched the basket from his mother. He saw a big bowl of rice balls, some sauce dishes, and an egg inside. Without saying thank you, he started eating by himself. He didn't ask his mother to sit down either, and there was no place for her to sit anyway.

  Hao's mother looked at Yuan Hao with a mix of heartache and sorrow, wiping away tears as she gazed.

  Yuanyuan also saw it at this time and hurriedly asked: "Mom, why are you crying? I'm fine."

  "Of course, you're fine now. But let's see if you dare to cause trouble again in the future. If your father hadn't handled it in time today, you would have gotten into big trouble."

  "What's the worst that could happen? You're just a bunch of orphans, no one will bother you. Besides, even if something does happen, it'll be my fault alone, not yours. What are you afraid of?"

  Hao's mother was still deeply moved in her heart. Hao, this child, although mischievous, is still very filial to his parents at heart.

  "Hey, right, Old Man, he said that when he was very young, his parents were gone, what's going on?" Yuan Huan asked.

  "Your father and his six siblings fled from Hubei during the 1960s. Your father lost his parents at the age of six, and your younger aunt was only a few months old back then. Afterwards, they all fled to this place."

  As soon as Yuan Hao heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he seemed to understand something. Today, Father punished himself for a reason, it turned out that Father was very poor when he was young.

  What I did today was really wrong, Da Shuai is a poor guy, just like Dad when he was young. It seems that in the future, I should take good care of him and treat him well.

  This is Yuan Hua. Don't look at his young age, but since he was a child, he has been influenced by the kindness, integrity and generosity of his parents, which has silently affected him, making him realize that from now on, he wants to lend a helping hand to those who truly need help.

  After understanding this point, Yuan Huan hurriedly asked: "Mother, how is Dashi now? Has the fever subsided? By the way, I heard from Da Gou that people with a fever should not be covered tightly with blankets at night, they need to cool down properly, otherwise it will make the fever worse. How about this, Mother? I'll go back and take care of Dashi, if he wants water or something at night, I can also take care of him, what do you think?"

  Hao's mother was so touched by these words that she couldn't hold back her tears.

  Yu Huan saw his mother crying again, and hurriedly said: "Mom, I'm not going, I know I was wrong. Today, I'll stay in this temple to reflect on my mistakes. Don't be sad anymore, and I promise I won't cause you trouble or make you cry again." After saying that, he used his small hands to wipe away his mother's tears.

  Hao's mom had never been so happy in her heart, sweeter than eating honey.

  The son knows how to comfort people now. How can a mother's heart not be happy? Does everyone think I'm right? Those who agree, give me a thumbs up, haha!

  That night, Yuan Hua was alone in the ancestral hall.

  That night, Yuan Hua couldn't sleep no matter how hard he tried. It wasn't because of the cold, but because today's events had a huge impact on him.

  Dad's kindness, Mom's gentleness, Da Shuai's foolishness, and evil Doctor Wang Xiangyang's cunning.

  Everything seemed to be replaying in Yuan Huan's mind like a movie reel.

  For the first time, I felt the true goodness, beauty and ugliness of human nature.

  Yuan Huan was deep in thought, tonight's events, he indeed had done wrong. Da Shuai was a pitiful person, without parents, sometimes hungry and sometimes full. His physical condition was originally poor, would he fall ill because of this?

  Today, my own actions are really unforgivable, but Da Shuai never mentions a word, he won't be so stupid, it's just that he doesn't hold grudges against me. Compared to him, I'm like a clown. Suddenly, Yuan Hua found that Da Shuai's figure was becoming more and more majestic.

  Dad and mom, although they didn't read any books, are very loving to themselves. Compared to Da Gou, Er Gou, and Da Sha, I am extremely happy.

  Looking back on the past two years, I've become more and more overbearing. Not only have I been naughty, but I've also made one blunder after another, offending some people who shouldn't be offended, making my parents constantly criticized in public.

  But the parents had never punished themselves for these things, and today, also the only time, Father was furious, letting him come to the ancestral hall to reflect on his mistakes. It can be seen that Father is really angry, hating himself for bullying a child without father or mother.

  Thinking of these things, Yuan Hua couldn't help but feel ashamed in his heart.

  He made a silent vow in his heart, from today on, he would be more filial to his parents and let them not worry about him anymore. Also, he must treat Da Shuai better, he is a very kind person, cannot let him think that he is still as ignorant as before.

  Like this, Yuan Huan fell asleep in a daze.

  The next day, Yuan Hua got up early in the morning.

  Back home, the first thing I did was go see Big Fool.

  "Big silly, are you better now? Yesterday was my fault, I'm sorry! Don't worry, I swear to treat you like my own brother from now on."

  Yuankai sincerely apologized to Dashuai.

  "I'm fine, Brother Hao, it's just that I'm too stupid and can't do anything right, so I made you angry. It's not your fault."

  Big silly as always so tolerant, so silly.

  In this way, their relationship not only recovered but also became better and better with each passing day.

  In the following days, Yuan Huan also told his ideas to Da Gou and Er Gou. The two brothers have always listened to Yuan Huan's words and promised that they would not tease Da Sha again from now on.

  And so, the real little villain team began to take shape step by step.

  Daily life has remained largely unchanged, the only difference being that Yuan Hua is now more considerate and spends some time every day helping his parents with tasks within his capabilities.

  Both Grandpa and Grandma were delighted to see this, and they were overjoyed in their hearts. This child was not like before. Every day, he would get into trouble for them, and there was nothing else.

  When they had nothing to do, Yuan Hua and others would also go to a neighboring village, Jiaopo Village, to have fun.

  Here, they met several children, one of whom was called Mù Tóu, and made a deep impression on them.

  Mù Tóu was tall and big, about the same height as Dà Shǎo, but more robust. One time when they were bullying a child from Jiǎo Pō village again, Mù Tóu happened to see them and beat up all three of them.

  That day, Da Shuai followed Huo's mother into the city to buy things. Yuan Huo had promised Da Gou and them to go to Jiao Po Village, so they didn't go together.

  Otherwise, two strong men will meet ahead of schedule.

  After that, Yuan Huan was determined to find Mu Tou to avenge himself. It has always been them bullying others, now that they have been beaten, they will definitely not let it go without revenge.

  After returning, I thought of a way and finally decided to take Da Shuai with me. You should know that normally Da Shuai serves as their thug.

  "Hao Ge, do you think Da Sha can beat Mu Tou? Although they are about the same height, Mu Tou is sturdy. Last time, the three of us were like sandbags being tossed around by him. I've been back for a few days and my butt still hurts."

  The big dog's heart still had lingering fear and asked a question.

  "It should be fine, these past few months, Big Dumb has gotten a lot stronger than before. With him added to our three, we should be able to handle it. If we can't handle it, then we'll just run."

  Yuán Hào thought that they could use the "human sea tactic", with the four of them taking turns to attack, and they would be able to flip over the wooden board. However, his idea was far from reality.

  Next, they will witness the real **.

  Also because of this accidental event, Yuan Hua began his martial arts journey from then on, laying a solid foundation for his future grand career.

  The work "Life's Ups and Downs" has undergone significant additions and deletions due to plot requirements.

  I hope everyone will like it.

  Wish you all a smooth work and a happy life!
