Chapter 22 Happy Birthday

She looked at the sinkhole and looked very happy.

She seemed to be unable to feel the pain and didn't care about the wounds on her body at all.

She smiled as if no one was around, then touched her slightly shrunk belly.

"I'm so hungry... I finally survived and I'll be rewarded with two vegetarian steaks!" As she said that, she pulled into her pocket and then her body stiffened.

"Eh? Eh?! Eh?!" She looked at her pocket in horror, but found that the pocket of the cheap shorts had been broken at some point, and the money she had sewned into her pocket with needle and thread was gone.

Oh no, it's not all gone, there are two steel horns left hanging tenaciously on the inner pocket of the pocket.

One piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, one piece, five pieces.

"My little money..."

She muttered to herself as if no one was around, then quickly looked down at the pit, trying to see the 226.50 cents that had fallen out of her leaked pocket.

But obviously, I can't see it.

She showed a hesitant look on her face, and she was actually hesitating whether to climb down and look for it.

Since the sinkhole is caused by sinking, the center of the bottom is the gate of the spiritual realm, the sinkhole uses suspended operations, which are constructed by professional equipment such as workers' slings and cranes. There is only one circle of scaffolding in the edge of the sinkhole for fixing.

She climbed up for a whole night, and she didn't want to climb again...

But she saved the 226.50 cents for a long time. She wanted to use the money to buy herself a small mobile phone. The previous master's phone was crushed when it was hit by a car before, so she had to change it.

How many bottles do you have to pick up for more than two hundred yuan?

The joyful mood was diluted a lot, but looking at the only one-five left in her hand, she was silent for a moment and smiled again.

"Fortunately, one piece of five pieces left, so you can still buy two vegetarian steaks!"

"But you have to wash yourself first."

As she said that, she jumped out and ran.

Along the way, even though her body was covered in blood, even if she was muddy, even if people came and went on the way, even if people often stopped here and watched the construction of the sinkhole, no one looked at her.

It's as if she doesn't exist...

She first went back to the place she called home, and took a bath and clothes by a stream not far away.

She washed herself and was covered in snow-white all over, and her skin, eyelashes, and hair were all pure white.

However, those scars and scabbed wounds made her look a little hideous...

After changing into a new cheap clothes, she went out happily.

But she didn't go to the bun shop immediately.

Although she was very hungry, she only had one meal because she only had one chunk of five, so she decided to leave it until the evening to eat, which was used to work during this period.

What work are you doing?

There are many things, such as picking up bottles, scrap paper boxes, or walking around to see if there is any furniture that others have thrown away.

One by one, at noon, she picked up a lot of bottles and waste cartons.

After skillfully putting it away, she took it home and prepared to exchange it for money the next day.

This is her main source of income.

After doing all this, the wounds on her body have almost recovered. You should know that these injuries were still bleeding in the morning. Now even the scabs have fallen off, leaving only a faint scar. If Zhang Tianyan and others know, they will probably be shocked and fall off.

What kind of resilience is this?

However, this powerful recovery also requires energy support. After nearly half a day of recovery, her stomach was already so hungry that she was roaring.

So she decided to have supper.

Soon, she came to a bun shop. The big meat buns on the bun shop exuded a sweet smell. She looked at the big buns and couldn't help swallowing.

But meat buns cost two or five yuan per one, bean paste buns and vegetable buns cost only one or five yuan, but one is not full...

So she shouted to the boss's wife: "Boss, I want two steamed buns~"

The hospitality boss lady greeted the guests with a smile, but never looked at her.

She didn't care at all, but came to the shop, imitated the proprietress's tone and said, "Okay~"

Then she carefully picked up a plastic bag and put it on her hand, and then took two steamed buns while the boss opened the steamer.

“Hohuh, so hot~”

"Okay, let's put the money on."

As she said that, she put two coins into the drawer where the boss’s wife put the money.

Two steamed buns cost one dollar and plastic bags cost 50 cents, just right.

Carrying two hot white steamed buns, she walked towards home with a happy look on her face.

From beginning to end, the boss lady, the guests and pedestrians around her never looked at her.

Moreover, plastic bags don't cost money...

It was getting late and she returned home.

Her home is big because it is an abandoned warehouse.

However, the abandoned warehouse was very clean at this time, and the broken bricks and soil were cleaned up. In a small corner of the warehouse, some furniture was neatly placed.

There are sofas, chairs, and tables.

However, there were patches on the sofa, one leg of the chair was nailed with a tree and nails, the table was also covered with bricks, and there were some worn and yellow books on it, and the title of the book could be vaguely seen.

"Chinese·First Grade 1 Volume", "Mathematics·First Grade 1 Volume,"...

"Chinese·Great Book"...

In addition, there is a bed built with bricks, with several faded blankets on it, and a neatly stacked thin quilt.

There is also a carton next to the bed, which contains seasonings such as salt and soy sauce, as well as laundry detergent and some simple daily necessities.

She came to the table and put down the steamed buns, then lit the candles, and there was some light in the small corner of the warehouse.

Since the master's machine broke, she has been able to use this method to illuminate it.

Then she searched in the box beside the bed and found a bottle of soy sauce that only had a bottom left.

"The soy sauce is almost used up again, so I have to buy another bottle." She murmured to herself, then put the remaining soy sauce on the steamed buns to make the steamed buns brown in the soy sauce. The vegetarian steak was done like this.

She licked her lips and immediately put the steamed bun into her mouth, but then she remembered something, quickly put the steamed bun down, took another small candle, then inserted it on the steamed bun and lit it.

Vegetarian steamed buns become small cakes.

Then she stood up and ran to the other side of the table, spreading her arms and her face was full of brightness.

"Happy 16th birthday!"

Then he ran back with a snap and his fingers connected: "Wow~ Thank you!"

He ran over again: "Okay, make a wish quickly, this wish will definitely come true!"

Run back again: "Yeah!"

So she closed her eyes.

The night was dark, and the candlelight shook gently as the wind sensation from the broken wall of the warehouse.

The light flickered and dark, sprinkling on her face. If there were no tiny scars, you could imagine how exquisite this little face would be...

"I hope... someone can see me..."

"Then I'll treat him to the real steak!"

"Oh, and, I've always wanted to go to the playground, but it's too expensive..."

"And there is also, that 226 yuan and 5 cents can be returned, hehe..."

"By the way, I want a real ID card!"

"Okay, four wishes, and if there are more, you will be greedy." As she said that, she opened her eyes, blew off the candle with a shout, and then began to enjoy her own cake happily.

It was just a cake dipped in soy sauce, but she seemed extremely enjoyable. She swayed gently while eating, making a satisfying hum.

...

"Happy birthday!" Liao Jie walked over with a huge cake, and Zhang Ye's eyes lit up.

The cake Zhang Ye’s favorite chocolate mousse cake is sprinkled with almond crumbs and sixteen beautiful colorful candles inserted on it.

Not only the cake, but also the table of delicacies, which were prepared for him by Liao Jie and Zhang Tianyan and his wife.

What are the pork buns with shredded pork, fried onion and chopped chicken, braised pork feet, fried okra, squirrel fish...

In short, it’s all what Zhang Ye likes to eat!

After a series of running around, and before being killed by Liao Jie's spiral ascension to heaven, he was vomited, Zhang Ye can be said to be so hungry that he was beating and he could hardly stop his saliva at this moment.

"Make a wish." Liao Jie urged.

Zhang Ye nodded, clasped his fingers tightly. After a moment, he opened his eyes and Liao Jie said curiously: "What did you promise?"

Zhang Ye smiled and said, "It won't work if you say it."

"It's... eat quickly, and then eat the cake after eating and resting."

"good!"
