Chapter 92 Birthday
Mrs. Zhang shook her head, "Okay, as long as you don't have any objections."

After saying this, Madam Zhang took Ye Xiaomei and Madam Li to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Zhou Ran went to help, but was stopped by Madam Zhang, "No need for you, just sit with your sister-in-law and talk. That’s it.”

Ms. Chen's belly was eight months old and it was difficult to sit up on weekdays, so Mrs. Zhang rarely let her enter the kitchen.

How dare Zhou Ran be treated like Chen, but before she could say anything, Li slipped Ye Huaili out of Ye Erlang's hands and stuffed it into Zhou Ran's arms.

Zhou Ran had no choice but to hold the child and sit and talk with Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Zhang and the others had prepared a lot of things before Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing came back. Now the three of them entered the kitchen and cooked a table full of dishes within a short time, most of which Zhou Ran liked. Food to eat.

Zhou Ran looked at the dishes on the table and asked in confusion: "Is today a special day?"

Ye Xiaomei said with a smile: "Third sister-in-law, you don't even remember your birthday?"

Her birthday? Zhou Ran was stunned for a moment, then realized that the birth date of the original owner was the same as hers, on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month. However, she was an orphan in her previous life, and her birth date was not her real date of birth, but the one the director of the orphanage picked up at the entrance of the orphanage. Her life, she almost never lived.

Mrs. Zhang brought a bowl of longevity noodles and placed it in front of Zhou Ran and said with a smile: "Eat quickly. After eating, you will live longer and be healthier."

Zhou Ran looked at Mrs. Zhang, then at the small bowl of noodles covered with poached eggs in front of her. She said softly "hmm" and lowered her head to eat the noodles.

"Don't bite off the longevity noodles." Ye Ximing reminded at the side.

Zhou Ran, who was about to bite off the noodles, froze for a moment and continued to stuff the noodles in the bowl into her mouth.

The family waited for Zhou Ran to finish eating the longevity noodles before starting to eat. The bowl in front of Zhou Ran was filled with her favorite dishes by Zhang and the others.

Zhou Ran was very grateful, but she had just eaten a small bowl of longevity noodles, and she really couldn't eat so much.

Ye Ximing saw Zhou Ran's dilemma, and when Zhang and the others were not paying attention, he took a lot of it from Zhou Ran's bowl, so that Zhou Ran didn't burst.

Zhou Ran originally thought that the dishes specially prepared for her and the bowl of longevity noodles were birthday surprises. Unexpectedly, after the meal, she received birthday gifts from everyone in the Ye family except Ye Ximing.

Ye's father directly wrapped the red envelope, Zhang gave him a silver bracelet, and Ye Dalang gave him a wooden sculpture of a lion holding a ball made by himself. The wooden lion sculpture was vivid and very delicate.

Zhou Ran knew that Ye Dalang was a carpenter, and he had made embroidery stands for Zhou Ran before, but this was the first time Zhou Ran saw something carved out of wood by Ye Dalang, which really surprised her.

Mrs. Chen also gave something as a gift, a pair of shoes she made herself. Although Zhou Ran was good at embroidery, she didn’t know how to make shoes herself. It’s not that she couldn’t do it, but she had never tried to do it herself. shoe.

What Ye Erlang gave to Zhou Ran was a set of embroidery tools, which included needles, scissors, threads, etc.

What Li gave to Zhou Ran was a piece of cloth.

What Ye Xiaomei gave as a gift was a dress made by herself. The skirt, corners and cuffs were all embroidered with exquisite patterns.

Anyway, everyone was very considerate in their gifts. Zhou Ran was extremely moved. She thanked everyone seriously, then looked at Ye Ximing sideways and said, "Where is your birthday gift? Isn't it unprepared?"

"How could it be?" Ye Ximing smiled and said, "It's just a birthday gift for my wife. I don't want others to see it."

After hearing this, Ye Xiaomei asked with a smile: "What birthday gift did the third brother prepare for the third sister-in-law, and you don't want us to see it?"

Ye Ximing glanced at Ye Xiaomei lightly and said: "I won't tell you." Li smiled and said to Ye Xiaomei: "Little sister, don't ask, this is the couple's love between the third brother and the third brother and sister."

Zhou Ran listened to Li's teasing with a blushing face, and was very curious about the birthday gift Ye Ximing prepared for her.

However, until they returned to the county town from Xiyao Village, she did not see the birthday gift Ye Ximing prepared for her. Zhou Ran couldn't help but wonder, "Did you really prepare a birthday gift for me?"

Ye Ximing looked at her and said, "Would you be disappointed if I said I wasn't prepared?"

Zhou Ran didn't say anything. If it hadn't been for today's incident, Zhou Ran wouldn't have cared. But everyone in the family was prepared, but Ye Ximing was the only one who wasn't prepared. She would definitely be disappointed.

Ye Ximing smiled and grabbed Zhou Ran's hand and squeezed it gently, "Okay, I lied to you, how could I not prepare a birthday gift for you."

"Then what have you prepared?" Zhou Ran was curious.

"You'll find out later tonight."

Zhou Ran was itchy, but Ye Ximing insisted on keeping it a secret, so Zhou Ran could only suppress her curiosity.

It was already late when she returned home to the county town. Da Niu did not go back to Xiyao Village with Zhou Ran and the others today. As soon as Zhou Ran and the others came back, Da Niu presented the birthday gift she had prepared for Zhou Ran, a pair of gold and jade gourds. earring.

After Zhou Ran accepted Da Niu's birthday gift, she was looking forward to getting dark soon.

After dinner, it finally got dark. Under Zhou Ran's expectant eyes, Ye Ximing took Zhou Ran to the yard and set off a firework for Zhou Ran.

Ye Ximing didn't have much money in his hands, and he didn't prepare many fireworks, but Zhou Ran couldn't take his eyes off them. She felt that these fireworks were more dazzling than all the brilliant fireworks she had seen in her previous life, because they were specially bloomed for her. fireworks.

Under the brilliant light of the fireworks, Ye Ximing turned his head and said to Zhou Ran: "I will accompany you to watch the fireworks every year on your birthday from now on, okay?"

Zhou Ran smiled and responded: "Okay."

Zhou Ran originally thought that the fireworks were Ye Ximing's birthday gift to her, but she did not expect that it was not the case. After entering the house, Ye Ximing gave Zhou Ran a scroll, which was his birthday gift to Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran opened the scroll and found that it was a portrait painting, and the person in the painting was herself.

Ye Ximing once said that he would give Zhou Ran a painting. When he was ill, he did draw a portrait for Zhou Ran, but before he could give the portrait to Zhou Ran, the person almost died. Later, he gave the portrait to Zhou Ran. The portrait was put away.

After he recovered, he felt dissatisfied when he looked at the painting again. Later, he took time to paint several more paintings, but none of them satisfied him.

The painting given to Zhou Ran was the one he painted recently and was also the one he was most satisfied with.

After Zhou Ran finished reading, she raised her eyes and smiled at Ye Ximing, saying, "I like it very much. You painted me very well."

Ye Ximing said: "It's not that I made the lady look good, it's that the lady herself is very good-looking."

Zhou Ran pursed her lips and smiled: "It turns out that my husband can be glib sometimes."

Ye Ximing shook his head, "Madam, please don't accuse me unjustly. What I said is all from the bottom of my heart."
