    Principal Xu also took out a bottle of Fenjiu from the cabinet, but Xie Huaxiang and the others did not drink. It was just Principal Xu and his son drinking with each other, and the meal was quite enjoyable.

    After dinner, Sister Hua helped Xie Huaxiang and Shen Lihua tidy up the room where they slept. This room was where Xiaobao's father lived before he got married. After they got married, they were divided into rooms in the unit and moved out. This room  The room has always been empty, but now it can be occupied by just putting clean bedding on it.

    Shen Lihua watched silently without speaking. It was not until the two of them were left in the room that she asked Xie Huaxiang in a low voice: "Sister Xie, then we can't stay in the guest house?"

    Poor child, her dream of living in a guest house was ruthlessly shattered.

    Xie Huaxiang was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I won't stay here this time. We will stay there again when we have the opportunity to travel far away, okay?" At this time, it is useless to tell the little girl that the environment in the guest house is not as good as at home.  , I can only promise her to stay there again if I have the opportunity in the future.

    Shen Lihua wanted to live in a guest house because she was just curious. After hearing what Xie Huaxiang said, she nodded obediently: "This house is really nice. This is the first time in my life that I have lived in such a nice house."

    The furnishings in the room are actually very simple, with a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk with two drawers. Because no one lives in it, there is nothing. It is empty, but it looks spacious.

    There was a mat on the bed, a white mosquito net hanging on it, and a thin quilt with small floral flowers. Shen Lihua carefully touched the patterns on the mat: "Sister Xie, do you also live in a house like this in the city?"

    "Absolutely!" Xie Huaxiang said casually.

    "It's great!" Shen Lihua sighed. When she was lying on the bed, she didn't dare to move around. There was a scent of soap on the newly changed pillow cover. All the experiences today were very novel to her.  , It turns out that there are people in the city who work and eat from the government, and they lead such a life.

    Their kitchen is clean and bright, and they have a bathroom in their own home. They don¡¯t have to worry about shivering in the wind in winter. The meals they treat guests to are better than what their family eats during the Chinese New Year, and they are so strong.  beds and snow-white clean mosquito nets.

    For the first time, a yearning arose in my little heart, a yearning for a comfortable and prosperous life. Sister Xie said that as long as she goes to school well and gets into high school and then university, she will be able to live such a life after she graduates.  .

    Shen Lihua clenched her hands into fists and secretly made up her mind. She must take the exam well tomorrow and study hard in the future. Not only will she live such a life, but she will also lead her grandma, brother and sister-in-law to live such a life!

    The biggest girl in the world is going to take the exam tomorrow. Xie Huaxiang is leaning on the bedside, holding a big cattail leaf fan in his hand to fan Shen Lihua, watching her slowly fall asleep, her breathing becoming even and even.  It was so long that she fell asleep unconsciously.

    The next morning, Sister Hua cooked millet porridge, went to the state-owned canteen to buy fried dough sticks, and cooked two boiled eggs. This was a lucky breakfast specially made for candidates. One fried dough stick and two eggs would make one.  It means 100%.

    After breakfast, Principal Xu personally sent them to the examination room of the county primary school. When they arrived at the school gate, the school only allowed candidates to enter. Xie Huaxiang watched Shen Lihua's back walk into the examination room, and walked back and forth uneasily at the school gate for a few times, feeling like she was  Like the anxious parents of future college entrance examination students.

    Perhaps it was because she was walking around with her head down so strangely that the security guard at the school gate finally couldn't help but come over and ask her: "Comrade, what's the matter? Did you lose something?"

    Only then did Xie Huaxiang realize that she was the only anxious parent outside the school. In other words, she had not seen any other parents this morning. Even the first-grade students were walking by themselves with their schoolbags on their backs.  When I was in school, I never saw anyone who needed a gift from their parents.

    She couldn¡¯t help but laugh. Yes, why was she so nervous here? She might as well take this time to go shopping on the black market and learn about the market!

    Xie Huaxiang immediately left the school and rode his bicycle to the black market where he asked Sister Hua about last time.

    It is said to be a black market, but in fact it is no different from a free market. There are stalls on both sides of the small alley. It seems that they are all farmers nearby. Some are selling a few handfuls of vegetables, and some are selling local products from the mountains.  , the most common grains are corn flour, sweet potato flour, and other whole grains. Some families have many people eating, and they are reluctant to eat the white rice and white flour they share, so they sell them and exchange them for some coarse grains, which at least can fill their stomachs.

    Generally speaking, everyone doesn¡¯t sell many things,Xie Huaxiang glanced at a man selling firewood next to him. People living in the county are different from rural people. If rural people want to burn firewood, they just go to the mountains to pick it up. However, people in the county have to pay for anything. Most people  Briquettes are used to boil water for cooking, but the briquettes must be supplied by ticket, and those with a large family may not be able to use them, so some people have to buy firewood on the black market.

    Xie Huaxiang squatted down, pulled out a piece of firewood from the pile of firewood, and gave the man a hard blow directly at the bend of his knee. The man was caught off guard by a pain in his leg, and he knelt down with a "pop" sound.

    Xie Huaxiang said: "Don't think that you don't have to pay for it if you give me a big gift. If you don't pay for my eggs today, you won't be able to leave!"  Hit the man.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
