Chapter 21: 18th Birthday

Chen Wen usually doesn't have many phone calls, and he can't receive a few in a semester.

It's not that the dormitory manager is a hotline, but that no one will call Chen Wen at all.

Chen Wen's social circle is very narrow, and the few who play well are almost all studying hard in high school.

As for the girls, it's even less so.

Zhang Juan is probably the closest to Chen Wen of the opposite sex, the ambiguity between the two in the previous life began 6 days ago, and the rebirth time of Chen Wen in this life is too powerful, directly assisting him to cut off the small flame that caused destruction.

Lin Linger and Xu Xiaoqian, these two beauties in their previous lives had no in-depth intersection with Chen Wen, they and Chen Wen were just passers-by in each other's lives.

It is even more impossible for Su Qianqian to call, Chen Wen knows who Su Qianqian is, but according to the development of history, at this time, Su Qianqian does not know that there is a person named Chen Wen in this world.

--------------------------------

Chen Wen rushed down the stairs from the second floor, grabbed the phone at the window of the dormitory manager: "Hey, I'm Chen Wen, who are you?"

"Xiaowen, I'm your Uncle Ji. The voice of Uncle Ji and Section Chief Ji came from the earpiece.

"Uncle Ji, is there something wrong?, is there any news from my parents and my mother?" Chen Wen asked subconsciously.

It is really normal for Chen Wen to have such a reaction.

Uncle Ji is the bridge between Chen Wen and his parents, and he is entrusted by Chen Wen's parents to take on the responsibility of paying Chen Wen's living expenses every month.

On the penultimate day of each month, Chen Wen went to Uncle Ji's house as agreed to receive 100 yuan of living expenses for the next month.

The next day, the last day of each month, Chen Wen went to Uncle Ji's office at noon as agreed, and Chen Wen's parents would call him on time at this time and talk to Chen Wen for 10 minutes.

Every time he called, Chen Wen's mother and son talked most of the time, and Chen Wen's father would briefly explain a few words to his son before ending the call.

Today is January 12th, and it is early before the day of the payment of living expenses, Chen Wen felt a little strange about Uncle Ji's call.

"Xiaowen, have you already finished the exam?" Uncle Ji's voice came again in the microphone.

"Yes, I finished the last exam the day before yesterday. Chen Wen replied.

"Well, tonight, tonight, you come to my house. Uncle Ji sent out an invitation.

It's not a New Year, there's no holiday, what's the situation?

"Uncle Ji, tell me something quickly. Chen Wen was a little unsure.

"Haha, you stupid boy, have you forgotten what day is today?" Uncle Ji smiled.

"What day?" Chen Wen really couldn't remember for a while.

"Your birthday!18th birthday!" Uncle Ji revealed the answer.

"Uh... It's actually my birthday. "Since Chen Wen was reborn, he has not been able to care about positioning his birthday, there are too many things occupying his mind.

"Silly boy, come to my house at six o'clock in the evening, and your aunt Gao will make you something to eat. Okay, I'm hanging. ”

"Goodbye, Uncle Ji. ”

---------------------------------

Putting down the phone, Chen Wen thanked the dormitory manager and turned to go up the stairs.

Without returning to the dormitory, Chen Wen walked a few more floors and went to the rooftop.

He needs a place where there are relatively few people and thinks about life.

It's been too long since Chen Wen left Chen Wen for his birthday.

In his previous life, since his parents left, for more than 20 years, Chen Wen has never had a birthday.

So much so that Chen Wen forgot the feeling of having a birthday.

He remembers that he was born on January 12, 1974, but the meaning of this number is only a string of numbers on his ID card, and it has no real meaning for Chen Wen's life.

In people's lives, there are many things that need to be carried in a form of ritual, such as marriage, birthday, and so on.

In terms of subjective wishes, Chen Wen is not a person who actively turns himself into a walking corpse, he passively becomes an old bastard.

After being reborn, Chen Wen is trying to turn his fortune around, he has completed his first small goal, and is now moving towards the most important goal in his heart.

Now Chen Wen is a person who is full of desire and positive attitude towards life and life.

At the same time, he has the great advantage of being a traverser, which is the knowledge of the way to make a fortune in the future. Although he knew very little about these ways, he felt that it was enough.

Chen Wen worked hard to dig into his memories, and he remembered that since his parents went abroad in 1990, in the following two years, Uncle Ji would hold a banquet at home to celebrate Chen Wen's birthday.

Uncle Ji and his wife, Aunt Gao, grew up watching Chen Wen, and Chen Wen has always remembered the goodness of Uncle Ji and Aunt Gao.

--------------------------------

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Wen left the division school and rode to Uncle Ji's house on the 28th bar.

On the way, Chen Wen bought a bag of fruits, and he couldn't come to the door empty-handed, which was a courtesy.

According to the impression in his memory, Chen Wen found Uncle Ji's house and knocked on the door.

"Brother Chen Wen, please come in. A girl opened the door, said hello to Chen Wen, and then turned her head and shouted home. "Dad, Mom, Brother Chen Wen is here!"

The girl who opened the door was named Ji Yun, Uncle Ji's daughter, two and a half years younger than Chen Wen.

Chen Wen recalled that Ji Yun should be in the third year of junior high school and was about to take the 1992 high school entrance examination.

Later, Ji Yun was admitted to a key high school, three years later to university, and then entered a public service unit and became a civil servant.

In her previous life, Ji Yun's life was very proper, her work was stable, she got married and had children, and she met all the requirements and wishes of Uncle Ji and Aunt Gao.

What is a winner in life, this concept is the opinion of the benevolent and the wise of the wise.

At least in the minds of Uncle Ji and Aunt Gao, as well as in the minds of the vast majority of parents with family conditions like them, the path that Ji Yun took later was the most perfect and suitable life.

--------------------------------

Ji Yun is not very old, but she is generous in dealing with people.

Ji Yun took the bag of fruit in Chen Wen's hand and said, "Thank you." Come in, we don't take off our shoes. ”

"Xiaowen, you sit down first. Uncle Ji shouted from the kitchen. "I'll clean up the fish, Ji Yun, you pour a glass of water for your brother. ”

Ji Yun beckoned Chen Wen to sit down on the sofa, put the fruit on the coffee table, took a bottle of drink and handed it to Chen Wen.

"Brother Chen Wen, I heard that you will have no classes in the future. Ji Yun said.

"yes. After the New Year, when school starts again, I will go to an internship. Chen Wen replied.

"Did you officially join the work after the internship?" asked Ji Yun.

"yes. Chen Wen replied.

"Then how long do you want to intern?" asked Ji Yun.

"In principle, the internship period is half a year, but in practice you can also think of it as a year. Chen Wen replied.

"Because everyone's situation is different?" Ji Yun was very curious.

"Pretty much, it depends on each person. If the school where you intern and the school where you will work in the future are different schools, then the time from the beginning of your internship to the time you become a regular student may be longer. Chen Wen said in detail.

"Oh, I see. You're sure you can do it soon!" Ji Yun blinked his eyes wide.

"Thanks to your dad, I should be fine. Although Ji Yun is so simple that there is no subtext, Chen Wencai does not say that men are really fast.

--------------------------------

"Xiaowen, come, let's eat! Ji Yun, move the stool and set the tableware. Uncle Ji started serving food to the living room table from the kitchen.

The four of them sat down, Aunt Gao and Ji Yun drank orange juice, Uncle Ji picked up the two bottles of beer and said, "Xiaowen, my uncle never let you drink before, but from today, you can drink it, do you know why?"

"It won't be because it's my birthday, right?" Chen Wen guessed the correct answer, but he deliberately said a wrong answer.

"Haha!" Uncle Ji smiled happily, "Today is your 18th birthday, from today onwards, you will be an adult in the future, and you can drink as much as you want!"

"Then you have to drink in moderation, you can't drink indiscriminately!" Aunt Gao hurriedly typed.

"Oh, you're so slighted, I'm so happy today, what's the matter with me. Uncle Ji protested, but he didn't feel the slightest bit unhappy.

Chen Wen poured beer into his cup, picked up Uncle Ji's bottle and poured three-quarters of a cup into Uncle Ji's cup.

Chen Wen picked up his wine glass and said, "I salute Uncle Ji, Aunt Gao, and Xiao Yun, thank you for your care and help to me over the years, and thank you for celebrating my birthday." ”

Raise your neck and take a sip.

"Okay, good boy!" Uncle Ji said with a smile, and also drained the wine in his glass.

Aunt Gao and Xiao Yun smiled and took a sip of their drink.

"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, Xiaowen, you taste this fish. Aunt Gao urged Chen Wen to eat more.

--------------------------------

A good meal, full of wine and food.

Aunt Gao and Ji Yun were cleaning up in the kitchen, and Uncle Ji and Chen Wen were sitting on the sofa chatting.

"Take it. Uncle Ji took out two hundred yuan and handed it to Chen Wen.

"What are you doing here, it's not yet the day of the payout. Besides, my mother's living allowance is 100 per month, and you are 200, I can't take your money!" Chen Wen refused.

"Silly boy, this is what your mother gave you. Uncle Ji smiled.

"My mother gave it?" Chen Wen said curiously.

"Last month, your mother told me on the phone that she would give you 100 yuan on your 18th birthday, and I came to celebrate your adulthood. The other 100 yuan is next month's living expenses, although your mother didn't explain this, but I thought about it, so let's give it to you together. Uncle Ji took a sip of tea and was relaxed.

These two hundred yuan can make Chen Wen very happy.

It's not two hundred, it's 6 fortune certificates!

Thinking of this, Chen Wen had a bold idea in his heart: borrow some money from Uncle Ji!
