"What, it's my birthday. Chu Sheng looked at Lin Xi in surprise, since he was a child, he didn't have the concept of a birthday, let alone someone preparing a birthday for him. Chu Sheng looked at this bowl of birthday noodles, lowered his head, and bit his lip stubbornly. Smelling the rich fragrance, Chu Sheng struggled a lot to hold back the sourness that poured into his eyes. When he put the chopsticks into the bowl, Lin Xi stopped him and said, "This is the longevity noodles I specially made, you can't bite it off." ”

Chu Sheng carefully picked out the end of the noodles and slowly put them into his mouth until his mouth was stuffed and there were still a lot of noodles left in the bowl. His eyes widened and he looked at Lin Xi in confusion. It's like asking, "What now?" That cute look amused everyone. Liu Xia patted Lin Xi and said, "You have also become bad and learned to bully people." Then he said to Chu Sheng: "It's okay, you eat well, you have a big bowl here, how can you eat it without biting it?" Don't listen to your sister, she fools you." ”

At this point, Chu Sheng knew that he had been deceived by his sister, and he was not angry, he lowered his head and ate noodles until he drank all the soup in the bowl and showed the empty bottom of the bowl, and then said, "Sister, I have finished eating." Lin Xi understood what he meant, which showed that she had received her blessings for him. Lin Xi smiled softly, touched his head and said, "Eat more." ”

Zhao Heng on the side complained loudly: "Lin Xi, in the future, you will have to open a small stove separately for our birthday." Otherwise, it would be too partial. Lin Xi was amused, and he didn't agree, nor did he object. Yuan He glared at Zhao Heng and said, "You have been spoiled by good food and good food during this time, and you still want to celebrate your birthday, how old are you?"

"Twenty-one, I'm not too old, definitely aspiring young people. ", I've known you for so long, and I haven't noticed that you still have any ambitions. "Why not, I've aspired to be a train driver since I was a child, and I've been majestic. "If you're a train driver, then I'll build a train." "you. Several people began to argue.

Lin Xi looked at a group of frolicking young people, who may all have their own dreams, but they are trapped in this land. Lin Xi thought about it, there are still three years before the college entrance examination can be resumed, if everyone is like this, there is no hope in the future. Thinking of this, Lin Xi cleared his throat and said, "I have one thing to tell you." Everyone stopped frolicking and looked at Lin Xi. "I think that everyone sitting here is very young and can have their own dreams, but if we don't prepare, we can't grasp the opportunity when it comes, don't you say? Even though it is a dragon trapped in the shallows, if you want to soar into the sky, you must have the ability, it is better to take advantage of this opportunity now, study hard, and wait for the opportunity to come." ”

Lin Xi's words made everyone fall silent, Liu Xia looked at Lin Xi and asked, "Do you think we still have any hope of leaving?" "Yes, and we will definitely be able to leave." What Lin Xi said was categorical. "How do you know?" Yuan He looked at Lin Xi with complicated eyes.

"Don't you think that the control of us is much looser now? We are in this small village, and the news is closed, but I have a radio, you know, the last time I heard a report that some comrades need to be re-investigated, and I think this is a signal. ”

There was silence again, and finally Yuan He said: "We used to have a study group, but then there was too much farm work, and the study group was dispersed, and now I want to reopen the study group. "I'm participating, too. "Count me in. Everyone talked and finally decided to reopen the study group.

Seeing off the educated youths who had rekindled their confidence, Chu Sheng looked at Lin Xi, took Lin Xi's hand and said, "Sister, are you going to take the university entrance examination too?" Will you leave me?" Lin Xi squatted down, looked at Chu Sheng's eyes and said, "No, I promise not to be separated from you." Chu Sheng was relieved at this time, hugged Lin Xi's waist and said, "Sister, thank you for giving me my birthday." I am very happy. Lin Xi was just about to speak, when a voice from the system came from his ear: "Congratulations, you are currently completing the stage task - raising Chu Sheng to adulthood, with a completion rate of 40%, you can get 450 gold coins, and a random lottery." ”

Lin Xi clicked casually, and the system dropped a cloth bag, and there were three horses of material in the cloth bag. Lin Xi looked at the three horses and thought to himself: This is to learn to be a tailor.

Looking at Chu Sheng's shorter trouser leg again, Lin Xi sighed, could it be that the system is Chu Sheng's father, otherwise everything given is something that Chu Sheng can use. The system said: "One of the horses is red, which is obviously not suitable for Chu Sheng's use, if you are dissatisfied with this, the system can withdraw the reward." ”

Forget it, when I didn't say it. Although the red material is not suitable for wearing it now, it is still no problem to wear it inside. Lin Xi was instigated, the system was a mountain pressing on top of her head, bear with it.

For this piece of fabric, Lin Xi was also very helpless, she and Chu Sheng said: "I should have prepared a gift for you, but my sister is clumsy and can't make clothes, so I prepared a piece of material for you, tomorrow you go to the town to get the photo back, and by the way, go to see where there is a place to make clothes." "Why do you want to make clothes, sister, I have enough clothes to wear, don't spend that money." Lin Xi pointed to his trouser leg and said, "See, it's shorter, and I'm about to see my feet and neck." "It's okay to make up for it, why make a new one, it's too wasteful." Chu Sheng looked disapproving.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and then slapped her forehead, how could she forget: the new three years and the old three years of sewing and mending for another three years, people in this era are not like this, Lin Xi thought about it and said to Chu Sheng: "Then make summer clothes, anyway, you don't have anything, you have to do it." ”

Chu Sheng, who accepted the task, went to the photo studio to get the photo back, and when he saw Lin Xi smiling brightly in the photo, Chu Sheng couldn't help but tear the corners of his mouth.

The tailor shop in the town, Chu Sheng also found it, and after hearing the price, Chu Sheng was reluctant to let the tailor shop do it, and brought the material back. After Lin Xi found out, he was very angry, poked him hard in the head, and reprimanded him: "What are you bringing back for? I won't do it, don't I have to run again, seeing that the weather is hot, what will you wear next?" Chu Sheng muttered: "It's too expensive, it costs five cents to make a set of clothes." It's too expensive. Lin Xi scolded secretly: Knock on the door. Look at Chu Sheng's muttering appearance and educate him: "If you pick the door so hard, you won't even be able to marry a daughter-in-law in the future." "I don't want to marry a daughter-in-law." Chu Sheng lowered his head and muttered, Lin Xi glared at him.

"Yo, this is being trained, tell me, what did you do wrong?" Since he went to work at the town hospital, he only came back every week. Lin Xi looked at him carrying a large piece of pork ribs in his hand and asked, "This is for us?" Dr. Xiao Song's smiling face was closed, and he said, "What do you think, I spent a long time to get these two catties of meat, so what, just let you help make it." Lin Xi was angry and said, "What are you thinking? ”

"Hehe, how can it not be your share, after you finish it, I will leave you a few pieces, okay. Doctor Song asked with a flattering face. "Okay. Lin Xi was also joking with him, she was not short of meat, since she had a recipe, she could eat the meat provided by the system every day.

"I'm going to make a garlic bone, will you?" asked Dr. Song rubbing his hands and looking expectant. Lin Xi admired Dr. Song's cheekiness, and actually ordered food. Lin Xi went to the kitchen to cook, and Dr. Song helped to light the fire. The two began to chat, Lin Xi asked about the infectious disease, and Dr. Song's face was a little unpleasant: "The hospital is full of patients, and some serious ones have been transferred to the city hospital. Did you know that now three sticks of penicillin can be exchanged for a small yellow croaker? ”

"What?" Lin Xi was shocked, "You're talking about the black market!"

"It's not a black market, it's just a private exchange, and there is no market for it. ”

Lin Xi remembered the five penicillins she exchanged with the system, Chu Sheng used two, and three were lying in her storage space.

Doctor Xiao Song looked at Lin Xi's face and cautiously tested: "I heard my dad say, do you have penicillin in your hands?" "Well, last time Chu Sheng was sick, there were a few more. "Then, do you want to change it?" Doctor Song looked at Lin Xi with a look of hope. Lin Xi glared at him and said, "What would happen to Doctor Song if he knew?" Doctor Song suddenly shut up. He's going to have his leg broken by Daddy. Thinking about it and unwilling, he asked after a while: "I'm really not tempted, I'm not for money, a friend's family of mine needs to use it, and now I'm touching everywhere, and people are also for children, don't worry, it'll be fine, I promise." ”

As soon as she heard that it was an acquaintance, Lin Xi was a little moved, and it was useless for her to take it, but when Dr. Song saw that Lin Xi was relieved, he persuaded again. In the end, when Dr. Song went out, in addition to taking away garlic bones, he also took away three sticks of penicillin.

The kitchen was filled with the smell of garlic bones, Chu Sheng sniffed, Lin Xi beckoned to him, he came over happily and asked, "Sister, don't be angry with me, I was wrong, I'll go and find someone to make clothes, and my sister will also make a set." Lin Xi pointed to the garlic bones left by Dr. Xiao Song and said, "Taste it, it has just been fried, eat it while it is hot." ”

Chu Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his sister was no longer angry. Lin Xi was not angry, because she had already thought of a way. Most people in this era can make clothes, and the difference is whether they fit or don't fit. Lin Xi decided to find a capable person to help make the clothes.

Wrapping a box of white sugar cakes, Lin Xi took the fabric and went to find Grandma Lian. Last time, Lin Xi was still a little embarrassed when he took someone's chicken, and if he wanted to send some snacks, he would give him a gift in return.

The little buffalo was playing at the gate of the yard, and when he saw Lin Xi coming, he first said to the yard: "Mom, Sister Lin is here." Aunt Shuangqin greeted her.

Lin Xi handed over the white sugar cake in his hand and said, "I made some small snacks and gave them to Grandma Lian to taste." "Yo, what's so embarrassing?" Lin Xi stuffed the white sugar cake in his hand into Aunt Shuangqin's hand and said, "Don't be polite to me, just eat and play." The two of them talked and went into the courtyard.
