Li Jixiang lifted the cotton curtain on the door of the store and heard the wind chimes tinkling overhead. Looking up, the bronze bullet shell wind chimes don't look like something that can be bought in the store, and the string wears one long, two short and three strings of bullet shells, and the handiwork is a little rough.

"Grandma, where did you get these wind chimes?"

Bullet casings are not something to be easily obtained. Luo Wei, the deputy squad leader, had a bullet casing tied to his key, and he often played as a whistle, which attracted the covetousness of several male classmates, and begged him to find his father, who was the captain of the militia, to get one. The bullet casings had to be recovered after the militia team finished shooting, and Luo Wei's father was not easy to get.

"Ah......h

Grandma Li raised her eyes to look at the string of wind chimes that she wiped shiny, her eyes were hot, and she hurriedly lowered her head and pulled the cotton thread that had just been pierced into the soles of her shoes.

"You see, you forgot that the wind chimes were worn by your dad for you to play with. When you were a child, you loved to listen to the tinkling of brass bells, and you giggled every time you heard them......"

Grandma Li's eyes became hotter as she spoke, and a restless teardrop fell to the back of her hand, and she was busy wiping it off her clothes.

Li Jixiang doesn't remember the past at all, the original owner's memory is limited, and it is already nerve-wracking to be able to remember the names of all the classmates. However, Li Jixiang's father Li Haiyang can't hear with his ears, and he can't speak well, he seems to have fought as a soldier before, and she has a vague impression.

It shouldn't be difficult for someone who has been on the battlefield to bring back a few bullet casings to make a wind chime.

"Jixiang, grandma is sorry for you, she didn't let you live a good life......"

Grandma Li suddenly hung her head and sobbed.

"Grandma, what are you talking about?"

Li Jixiang stepped forward and took his grandmother's arm and sat down next to her, taking the soles of the nearly completed mille-feuille cloth in her grandmother's hand. Just look at the size of the soles and know that grandma is making shoes for her.

Grandma Li stopped crying and raised her teary eyes, and wanted to say something more, Li Jixiang preemptively said:

"Grandma, our family's life will get better and better. Don't be busy, let's go back to the house and rest when it's cold today. ”

Guarding the store for a day without a single business, there are few products on the shelves and counters, such a store is also a waste of time. When the wealth base is opened, there will definitely be no need to worry about livelihood at that time.

Li Jixiang pulled Grandma Li into the house, and Grandma Li insisted on keeping the store closing time.

Do business with integrity, and you can't close the door at what time you want to close. In case a passing driver wants to buy a lighter or something, no one will come again.

Grandma Li sat on a small stool and picked up the soles of her shoes again and began to thread needles and threads. The gray-blue cloth on her body was patched at the elbows of her blouse, and her hair was carefully combed in a bun at the back of her head. The white hair on the sideburns and the wrinkles on the forehead at the corners of the eyes are so conspicuous under the incandescent light.

The first time I looked at this family and looked at Grandma Li, Li Jixiang realized that her life was in urgent need of improvement, and she must accumulate a popularity value of 1,000 as soon as possible in order to start a wealthy life.

Grandma Li burned the kang very hot, and Li Jixiang slept until midnight and sweated, and he couldn't sleep anymore when he woke up. She listened intently to the coughing sound coming from her grandmother's room in the next room with a thin plank.

The intermittent coughing continued until more than three o'clock in the morning, and finally quieted down, and the hot temperature of the big kang under him gradually receded.

A room is divided into two halves, Li Jixiang and Grandma Li sleep on a big kang, Li Jixiang sleeps on the kang head on this side of the stove, and Grandma Li sleeps on the kang. The kang head can't feel the temperature, and the kang must have frozen.

Li Jixiang got up and walked to the stove and opened the lid of the coal stove, and the sealed coal fire was about to be extinguished. She picked up the stove and poked it a few times, and the burnt cinders fell into the hearth, choking her nose and face with the rising soot. She didn't bother to wipe her nose and face, and took advantage of the fact that there were still a few coal fires in the furnace tunnel, and hurriedly added a few dry briquettes with a stove shovel, and then used the banana fan hanging on the wall to fan the wind vigorously, and the stove finally burst into flames, burning with wisps of green smoke.

The kettle sitting on the stove made the beep of boiling water, and one pot of water just filled two thermoses. Before I knew it, it was already dark, and I had to go out of the house at six o'clock so as not to be late.

Li Jixiang turned on the big pot stove, and yesterday Grandma Li took out the lunch box that had been warm all night from the pot stove. She had to bring lunch to eat at noon at school, which did not have a cafeteria, but had a steam room for hot meals. As long as you put the lunch box on the shelf in the steam room in the morning, you can have a hot meal at noon.

On the steaming curtain in the stove is an aluminum lunch box, which is engraved with Li Jixiang's name. Next to the aluminum lunch box is a basket of multigrain cakes.

Li Jixiang picked up the lunch box and put it in a blue cloth schoolbag, covered the pot, and squatted down to pull out two roasted sweet potatoes from the bottom of the pot stove and wrapped them in straw paper, ready to make breakfast.

On the way to school, students on bicycles kept passing by, and someone deliberately rang the bell behind Li Jixiang to see her flee in panic like yesterday.

Today is different from yesterday, Li Jixiang has fully adapted to the current life. Listening to the sound of the bicycle bell, she thought it was similar to the wind chimes in front of the store.

The pace is fast, and he doesn't care about it, and his mind is full of thoughts about her wealth system's popularity value. The wealth system that was opened by An Chen yesterday afternoon should be able to collect more popularity points today.

After staying at school for a day, Li Jixiang only received 2 popularity points from teachers Ma Hongmei and Zhang Chunfen.

213, looking at the string of small pink numbers, Li Jixiang felt a little chilled. There were forty-six students in the class, and only one Ma Hongmei liked her!

The world is too unfriendly!

Increasing popularity is not expected to be counted on by students in class, let alone students in other classes and grades. A person with bad grades, a difficult family background, no talent, except for a face, why should others like her!

To be honest, even this face is not particularly satisfactory, after all, in her time, there are too many good-looking people!

List a few reasons not to be liked, Li Jixiang shook his spirits, it doesn't matter if everyone doesn't like her now, the coming days are long, sooner or later, she will harvest the popularity value they have grown, Tsundere Lady, she is so confident.

The last class in the afternoon is a self-study session as usual. Li Jixiang looked out the window from time to time, hoping to see An Chen's chubby face, so that he could brush up his popularity. But until he came home from school, An Chen did not appear.

It's strange, as if she knows that she urgently needs to accumulate popularity, An Chen's mother didn't make wool in front of the store today. Even Grandma Li was gone, and there was only a crack in the door panel of the store, just enough for Li Jixiang to squeeze in.

The popularity value of 213 seems to be frozen, which makes Li Jixiang a little crazy. She decided to go to An Chen's house to have a look, and if she didn't increase her popularity to four hundred today, she wouldn't give up.
