Xiaoxi couldn't wait to open the birthday cake, this was the first birthday cake that belonged to herself.

It must be false to say that she is not excited, and her mother's blame did not affect Xiaoxi's mood in the slightest.

"Mom, look, there's a birthday crown here," Xiao Xi took out the birthday crown from the bag.

Then he pretended to wear the birthday crown on his head.

Then she swaggered like a princess towards the back kitchen, wanting to show off in front of her mother.

"Mom, what do you think, isn't it beautiful," Xiaoxi said, pointing to the crown on her head.

"Beautiful, pretty, Xiaoxi is beautiful with everything. ”

"Ah," Mom kissed Xiaoxi on the forehead.

"My Xiaoxi really looks like a little princess, no, no, no, it's my little princess. ”

Li Mei pinched Xiaoxi's nose with her hand, and then said.

"Xiaoxi, I have now made all the seasoning ingredients for tonight's braised pork, and I will wait for the evening to be cooked. ”

Xiao Xi also saw that there was still this mushroom on top of the pot, and was a little puzzled, where did this mushroom come from.

"Xiaoxi, I found this mushroom on the vegetable patch next to the kitchen, although there are not many, but they are all big and fresh. ”

"The temperature in the kitchen is higher than the temperature outside, so the mushrooms can grow, and I just saw that there are no mushrooms sold in the market outside. ”

"Now this season, mushrooms are all extinct, and money can't buy them. ”

Li Mei spoke in a very proud tone, and it was the first time she had seen the mushrooms on the vegetable patch outside the kitchen.

The greens on the vegetable field outside haven't been picked for a long time, not because she doesn't want to eat them, but because Li Mei wants to pickle the greens and make sauerkraut.

So you have to wait for the greens to grow a little older.

The greens outside can grow in this winter, which makes Li Mei a little strange, but then she is relieved when she thinks about this temperature.

The temperature in the kitchen is the hottest in the whole house, and there is a fire here all year round.

"With these ingredients and seasonings, Xiaoxi, you have a good time tonight," Li Mei said.

Xiaoxi is also very happy, she likes to eat the braised pork made by her mother the most.

The color and flavor are complete, and when you eat it, you feel that the whole person has energy.

Xiaoxi likes the braised pork made by her mother very much, but because of her family background, she rarely eats it.

You may eat it during the Chinese New Year, but you can only eat four pieces at most.

Because you can only do a little bit each time, or because of money.

Therefore, Xiaoxi already knew the importance of money at a young age.

If you don't have money, you won't have a father, if you don't have money, you won't have enough to eat, and if you don't have money, you will suffer the white eyes of others.

All in all, Xiaoxi knows that money may not be everything, but no money is absolutely impossible.

The concept of money has penetrated into the depths of Xiaoxi's mind, and she also wants to help her mother earn money, but she doesn't know how to do it.

After all, she is too young to accept underage children outside.

What's more, Xiaoxi is only six years old now, what can she do at the age of six?

Xiao Xi killed such an unrealistic idea at the first time.

"Xiaoxi, what are you thinking, school is going to start in a few days, and you don't go to do your homework yet. ”

Li Mei wanted to tell Xiaoxi about this graduation exam, because Xiaoxi was about to enter primary school in one semester.

But considering that it was Xiaoxi's birthday today, Li Mei couldn't help but say nothing.

But the homework still has to be done, and I have been out for so long today, and I must finish today's homework.

"Today's business is done today, Xiaoxi, you can't want to push off your homework today just because it's your birthday. ”

Although Li Mei is a rural person and her education is not high, she still knows the truth of being a person.

For Xiaoxi's education, she didn't dare to take it lightly.

Strive to make Xiaoxi a useful person to society, rather than becoming a burden to society.

Establish Xiaoxi's values since she was a child, which she heard from others.

Because Li Mei often goes to the market to sell vegetables and daily necessities, she often meets teachers in the county town who bring their children to buy vegetables.

Seeing how other people's teachers educate their own children, Li Mei also invisibly learned knowledge that others can't learn in school.

A high degree of education does not mean that he is a good person, and a good person does not mean that he is highly educated.

But Li Mei knew in her heart that who she was with would determine what status that person was in to a certain extent.

If a person has been hanging out with some ruffians, then there is a good chance that he will not be very productive, and he may be a gangster in the future.

But if a person spends all day with such high-level intellectuals and some experts and professors, then he may become a leader in this academic circle.

It is true that if a person works with a business leader, then he is likely to become a business elite.

Li Mei once heard that a driver surnamed Li was the richest man when he was old and retired.

The richest man decided to give him two million yuan, but was rejected by the old driver.

Why?

The old driver's answer was shocking, "No need, I have been a driver for more than 10 million years over the years." ”

A driver's monthly salary is only three or four thousand, how can he have more than 10 million dollars.

"Boss, I often hear that you want to buy any stocks, and then I follow you to buy them, and over the years, there are more than 10 million. ”

This is a real example, so Li Mei understands that if you step into a very high-level circle, the closer you will get to success.

She doesn't have any chance now, but Xiaoxi is still young, she has a chance!

In fact, Li Mei still has a selfish idea in her heart.

just wants to train Xiaoxi to become a talent, and then show her father who left, how short-sighted he is.

So whenever she thought of this, she was even more determined to step into a higher circle.

This idea is getting stronger and stronger, and moving to an elementary school in the county is the first step.

In the primary school in the county, Xiaoxi can receive a better education.

Her classmates may be her helpers or connections.

Even if it doesn't work, at least it's much better than staying in the countryside and being bullied.

This is what Li Mei thinks now, it can't be said to be selfish, maybe this is what every parent thinks.

As for whether Xiao Xi is willing or not, Li Mei can't help it so much.

Instead of letting Xiaoxi be bullied by others here, it is better to let Xiaoxi be happier to study and live in the county.

But she didn't think that if Xiaoxi was in the county, she would also be bullied.

The county seat is not as good as the countryside, where the children of businessmen and wealthy people, the children of urban elites, or the children of high-ranking officials and nobles all go to school in the county seat.

If you will be bullied in the countryside, you will not be bullied in the county?

It's not so much that Li Mei didn't think of these things, even if she did, she wouldn't think so.

The county seat is the first step on the road to success, and even this step cannot be taken out, and there is no achievement.

At this time, Xiaoxi still didn't understand that her future path was arranged by her mother.

Xiaoxi obediently went to finish today's homework, because she knew that she was going to elementary school.

Grades are the only thing she can come up with to make her mother happy now.

Seeing Xiaoxi complete her homework so consciously, Li Mei was also very happy.

If Xiaoxi didn't do her homework today, Li Mei wouldn't blame her too much today.

Xiao Xi finished her homework on the table seriously, and Li Mei went into the kitchen to prepare tonight's dinner.

Braised pork must be the main dish, because of the reason for buying two catties of good meat, in addition to leaving half a catty to outflank your hands.

Li Mei used the leftover meat to make meatballs, made a green vegetable ball soup, and added an extra meal to Xiaoxi.

At this time, Li Mei gradually walked in the direction she wanted.

Xiaoxi is her only hope now, and whether she can live a good life in the future depends on Xiaoxi.

When night falls, every house in the countryside at this time is full of cooking smoke.

They are all preparing to cook dinner, and those who are a little wealthy can eat meat once a week.

As for the poor, they can only drink a mouthful of broth during the New Year's holidays.

And Xiaoxi's house, which often doesn't eat meat, wafted out a burst of meat fragrance at this time.

"Xiaoxi, it seems that you eat braised pork, fragrant braised pork that has just come out of the pot. ”

Li Mei brought out a big bowl of braised pork from the kitchen, which was enough for more than a catty.

This is the largest bowl of braised pork that Xiao Xi has seen so far.

Because there was not so much meat even during the Chinese New Year, Xiaoxi's saliva flowed out all of a sudden.

This is not to blame Xiaoxi, it is true that she has not eaten braised pork for too long.

She's so greedy.
