"Here." Qiao Linxi handed the lollipop to Zhao Dongqing.

Zhao Dongqing was surprised again: "Am I included?"

"Of course, although you are not from our family, since you are planning to go together, you are our friend. I, Qiao Linxi, will not do something like abandoning my friends just because I have something to eat."

"Thank you." Zhao Dongqing did not refuse and took the candy. However, he did not eat it, but put it in his arms.

Qiao Linxi ignored him. After giving him the candy, she returned to her previous position and lay down.

"Sister, I want to sleep with you."

Qiao Linhua crawled over and lay down next to Qiao Linxi: "I miss my mother."

Qiao Linhua was only five years old. She had always slept with her mother before. But when she fled the famine, her mother passed away. She was a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Huahua, did you see that? The brightest star in the sky is my mother."

Qiao Linhua stared at the sky with eyes wide open: "Is mother also a fairy? Will she go to heaven after she dies?"

"Ah."

The other children also lay on the ground. There was a wide view here, and there were no other refugees, so there was no danger. Everyone fell asleep quickly.

As for Zhao Dongqing, he was sitting cross-legged not far away. After seeing that everyone was asleep, he took out the candy that Qiao Linxi had given him, smelled it, carefully peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth.

The sweetness made him frown. It was too sweet, and mixed with another flavor, a bit like the smell of orange.

Zhao Dongqing did not continue eating, but wrapped the candy again and kept it carefully.

The next day, Qiao Linxi was awakened by the soft voice of the system.

"Host, wake up, wake up quickly, it's time to sign in. The early bird catches the worm, the sun is shining on your butt. Wake up quickly."

Qiao Linxi felt like her head was about to explode from the noise and opened her eyes reluctantly.

How could it be noon? It was clearly just getting light. I guess it was only six o'clock, which would be the hour of Mao in ancient times.

"Beautiful host, please sign in quickly. Another beautiful day has begun."

Qiao Linxi was speechless. This broken system also served as an alarm clock? It woke her up every day.

Qiao Linxi didn't stand up. She just stared at the still gray sky and signed in in her mind.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a suture needle."

Qiao Linxi: “…”

"Host, don't be angry. Everything in the system can be synthesized. The highest level of the suture needle is beautiful clothes."

Qiao Linxi: Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. She should be grateful.

Thinking of this, Qiao Linxi sat up, clasped his hands together, and began the thanksgiving ceremony.

"Thank God, we children are like grass in a storm, and we are all strong and alive."

"Thanks to my late parents for bringing up my four younger brothers and sisters to be very obedient. Thanks to my second uncle and second aunt, the four brothers and sisters of Qiao Linshan are very obedient. Thanks to my third uncle and third aunt..."

Qiao Linxi's mumbling words woke up Qiao Linhua who was beside her. Qiao Linhua sat up and imitated Qiao Linxi and repeated what she said.

All the children woke up, and they remembered Qiao Linxi's words that waking up every day was a thanksgiving ceremony. So they put their hands together and said thank you to God for letting them be alive.

After saying that, they all looked at Qiao Linxi and said in unison: "Thank you Sister Linxi for taking care of us."

Listening to the words of gratitude, Qiao Linxi could see the gratitude value rising rapidly. It was already over thirty points. Every time a child said a word of thanks, he got eighteen points. They also thanked God. Adding Qiao Linxi's own gratitude value, he actually had over thirty points.

Zhao Dongqing, who was standing next to them, looked at their strange movements without saying anything. He was a little puzzled, are these kids so sunny and cheerful?

It is rare to be able to have a grateful heart under such harsh conditions.

Qiao Linxi ignored Zhao Dongqing. She would not ask an outsider to thank God as the first thing he did when he woke up like them.

"Everyone is awake, so let's pack up and get ready to go."

Qiao Linxi used some gratitude points to sign in, and the system actually gave her five kilograms of rice.

"Sister, I'm hungry." Qiao Linhua hugged Qiao Linxi's arm: "I want to eat steamed buns."

"Now that the sun is not out, walk forward a little more. It will be hot when the sun comes out."

Qiao Linxi ignored Qiao Linhua. She took out a comb from the system that she had exchanged for wishing points using ten points of gratitude points and started combing Qiao Linhua's hair.

"Sister, will we have food to eat when the sun comes out?" Qiao Linshu looked at Qiao Linxi with sparkling eyes.

Qiao Linxi: "Your sister is not a deity who can turn steamed buns into something anytime."

"Sister, you are a fairy. You said it yourself."

Qiao Linxi: ...

After casually tidying up, Qiao Linxi counted the number of people, and when everyone was there, he set off.

But Qiao Linshu's words made Zhao Dongqing fall into deep thought. Is this girl a fairy?

If not, how to explain that she could conjure up steamed buns and water out of thin air? But if so, why did she leave in such a mess? A fairy magic can give her everything.

The group had not walked for long when Qiao Linxi spotted a pot in the bushes not far away.

"Hey, what is this?"

Qiao Linxi put Qiao Linhua down from her back and walked towards the bushes. She pushed aside the bushes and saw that it was indeed a pot. Although it had several cracks in it, it was still usable.

"Lin Qi and Lin Shu, both of you come here."

Qiao Linxi called her brother over and said, "There's a pot here. Let's carry it over. Maybe it can be used."

"Hey." Two boys ran over and picked up the pot without caring whether it was black or not.

"Lin Bao, take Lin Ping and Lin Ji to find some dirt to build a stove. You girls go find some firewood and we'll make some porridge."

"Great. There's porridge."

Several children jumped for joy. The feeling of hunger in their bodies disappeared all of a sudden and they felt full of energy.

They never considered where the rice and water needed to cook the porridge came from.

But as an adult, Zhao Dongqing thought about it. He wondered if Qiao Linxi was lying to the children.

Qiao Linxi would definitely not do something to deceive a child, because she exchanged all her gratitude points for wishing points. She spent fifteen wishing points to exchange for a large bucket of eighteen liters of water, which was definitely enough for making porridge.

It has to be said that there is strength in numbers. The children are all from rural areas and are very skillful. They quickly built the stove and got the firewood in place.

Qiao Linxi then realized that she had nothing to make a fire. Thinking of this, Qiao Linxi looked at Zhao Dongqing, which made Zhao Dongqing feel scared.

"Girl, I, I don't have a fire either?"

"I'm not asking you for a lighter. I was just wondering why I didn't hear you say thank you for the steamed buns I gave you last night."
