The Chosen Game

Chapter 3
"It's fine with a holographic imager, but you bought so many raw ingredients. These raw ingredients are not cheap, a total of 503 imperial star coins, hey... I don't know what to say about you." Mother Li Xiufang said Carefully feeding the infant Xin Xin with nutritional supplements, while looking at the shopping list projected by the machine butler not far away, he complained to the figure who was busy in the kitchen.

In the dim kitchen, Xin Kang's simple and honest voice came out: "We are just two children, we are working hard to earn money every day, and it is not for the two of us, who do not spoil him? Besides, these native Among the ingredients, don’t you also have your favorite shiitake mushrooms? Think about it carefully, our family has been around for almost 2 months, and we haven’t eaten raw food, right? Just in time for our son’s birthday, let’s have a good meal, and Xin Son, she is also one year old, you can feed her some later."

"Feed some when the time comes." Li Xiufang replied, but didn't say anything more.

Next to it, the old mechanical butler dispersed the projected light curtain. Its two electronic eyes flickered. It looked at the hostess sitting on the sofa, and then turned to look at the host who was busy in the kitchen. After turning its head and thinking for a while, it raised its robotic arm, connected it to the vacuum kit, and began to clean the living room.

This is a very old machine butler, with a mottled shell and a very single function, unlike the latest machine butlers, which have all kinds of strange functions.

"Wife, why don't you talk?" Seeing his wife in the living room silent and busy in the kitchen, Xin Kang couldn't help shouting.

"I'm feeding my daughter." Li Xiufang replied.

"Hey, it's all because of my incompetence, which made you and the children suffer." In the kitchen, Xin Kang's voice was a bit muffled: "I'm just... Xiufang, I'm an orphan, and I don't even know who my parents are , even the name is randomly chosen by the machine, because it has no specialties and connections, and was assigned to this place to mine and reclaim wasteland... I... I just don't want my son to suffer like his father. I want him to live a better life, be happier, have a good childhood like a normal child, his father is an orphan, but he... is not an orphan!"

Li Xiufang's eyes were slightly red when she heard her husband's words, but she complained: "Husband, don't talk about it, we are both fine, our child has a father and a mother, how can it be possible to suffer? Today is my son's birthday. You'd better hurry up and cook, I'm a little hungry."

"Okay, okay, the food will be ready soon, it will be ready soon..." Xin Kang in the kitchen repeated.

Li Xiufang smiled, holding her 1-year-old daughter in her arms, smiling happily.

The reason why she cares about everything is just to make her family better. She loves her husband and loves her children deeply.

She murmured in a low voice: "Don't worry, husband, I will always be with you. We will work hard to make money together, raise Youer and Xiner, and then watch them get married and have children. We are both orphans, but They are not, they have a father and a mother..."

Her whisper to herself was so small that Xin Kang, who was busy in the kitchen, couldn't hear her. The old machine housekeeper who was "sweeping" not far away faithfully recorded this scene and Li Xiufang's whispers in the in its own memory unit.

Not long after, the meal was finally ready.

"Son, come out for dinner soon. Today is your birthday. Your father cooked the meal for you. Come out soon."

There was a knock on the door of Xinyou's hut.

"Understood, right away." Xin You was still immersed in the virtual images, and agreed casually.

It took a full 10 minutes before Xin You walked out of his hut.

"Wow, what kind of dish is this? It smells so good." As soon as he left the house, Xin You was attracted by the smell of the food.

"Sit down and eat quickly. Look, the dishes are getting cold. Your father cooked this for you." Li Xiufang glanced at Xin You with some complaints.

"It's okay, kid, it's normal to be playful, son, come here, I'll give you this chicken leg, you'll have the strength to play and grow taller after eating it." Xin Kang had a silly smile on his dark face, and clamped a chicken leg into his mouth. In Xin You's bowl.

"I still want to eat this." Xin You glanced at the chicken legs in the bowl, and then used his chopsticks to pick up the braised pork ribs in another bowl.

"Eat more, eat more." Xin Kang smiled, and simply put the bowl of braised pork ribs in front of Xin You.

……

The next morning, Xin You, who was lying in the hut, woke up on time and opened his eyes.

The room was very quiet, earlier, his parents had already gone out to work.

On this desert planet that has just been promoted to an administrative planet, idlers are not supported. As the most common imperial civilians on this planet, Xin Kang and Li Xiufang can only work day and night on this resource-poor desert planet. To feed themselves and their two children.

Xin You was already used to this kind of life. After he got up, he began to wash, and after washing, he began to eat breakfast.

His breakfast is a cup of nutrient solution and a compressed biscuit that is very nutritious.

Original food is not something you can eat every day. It is good enough to eat it once every few months. There is no taste of nutrient solution.

He put the compressed biscuits into the nutrient solution, soaked them and ate them.

After breakfast, Xin You put on his own protective clothing and a special protective cap with an oxygen circulation system, wrapped himself up like a little bear, then carefully opened the door of the house and walked out. He turned around and closed the door of his house tightly.

He has to go to school.

In the harsh environment of Mo Saturn, just going out is a kind of torture, but the children who grew up in the small town of Black Stone in Mo Saturn have long been used to this cruel environment, and are used to living in such a bad environment. Under the wind, facing the sky full of sand, I went to school.

Xin You was walking with difficulty on the sandy town streets, he was almost walking next to the buildings next to him, in this way, he could walk more easily.

Fortunately, his home is not too far from the school, only less than 1 kilometer. After struggling for half an hour on the sandy street, he finally walked into the building called the school.

After the building was built to block the sand, Xin You took off his protective helmet with great difficulty, and while breathing heavily, he patted the sand on the protective helmet with his hands.

"Have you heard? Just today, the dignitaries from the Ministry of Education are coming to Mo Saturn for inspection, and they also brought a Tianxuan instrument that can identify the chosen ones!" A fat man who was about the same age as Xin You The fat boy cried out loudly.
