At about six o'clock, the sky was getting dark, the neon lights on the side of the street were lit up, the street lights were also lit up, because there was no rain, there were many tricycles parked next to the bus station and in front of the hotel, and the tricycles were ready to be sold with fruits, Wei Jia'an returned to the rental house with a birthday gift from his sister. On the way, I really wanted to take it apart and take a look, but I still held back.

"Coming back?"

Walking into the rental house, Wei Jia'an sat on the edge of the bed and changed his shoes, and when he heard Vera's voice, he replied, "I'm back." "This kind of greeting is basically nonsense, everyone is here, they must be back, but I've always been used to talking nonsense.

"What's that?" With her arm resting on the back of her chair, Vera saw it, "You bought it?" ”

"That's it." Because of the need to change shoes, things naturally have to be put down, Wei Jia'an looked at the birthday gift given by his sister who was placed on the bedside table at this time, wrapped in pink gift paper on the outside, dotted with little stars and small hearts, tied with blue ribbons, and tied with a bow at the end, "I didn't buy it, Jiajia gave it to me." ”

"Birthday present." Wei Jia'an didn't mention it, but Vera guessed it, "There is a tradition of giving gifts on birthdays where we are, but our family is no more than ...... Actually, it's not a tradition, it's just a few years ago, and it's been passed down from other countries. ”

"Our side...... Anyway, our family is not prosperous, and my birthday was a red egg when I was a child. There is one this year, and there may not be one next year, depending on whether my mother wants to get up or not. Wei Jia'an thought for a while, "At first, Jiajia asked me for a gift, otherwise I wouldn't have planned to give it, but after the first time, I will have it every year." I've been giving her gifts, and of course I'm asking for them. ”

My sister gave a gift on her birthday, and told my sister that she must remember to return the gift on her birthday, and she must not forget, otherwise she will bear the consequences. Every time it's close to my birthday, I don't know why I'm suddenly embarrassed to mention it again, but I'm looking forward to it. If my sister really forgot, the most I could do was to mention it afterwards, but fortunately, my sister never forgot.

"Your birthday today?" Vera asked.

"No, it's going to be a few more days." Putting on wool slippers, taking out the keys, bank cards, and ID cards from his pockets and putting them on the bedside table, Wei Jia'an glanced at his ID card and said casually, "We are used to the lunar calendar, and if we celebrate the lunar calendar, the solar calendar time of each birthday is different every year." I remember one year when my birthday was on Qingming Festival. Qingming Festival, the day of tomb sweeping, the birthday is actually that day, it really feels weird. ”

"I lost my magic bag in the battle, and I lost everything, but I didn't have anything, and all those battle items and potions were already consumed. The one I gave you is essentially a power, and it doesn't need to be kept in a magic bag, so it can be kept. The teleportation scepter was stolen later. I can't give you that armor and weapons, I'm going to fight with them. Vera explained, "So there's nothing for you." ”

Wei Jia'an hadn't considered Vera from the beginning, he had never thought of mentioning it, and this time it was an accident. Under normal circumstances, he also has a few good friends, but the gifts exchanged are only between brothers and sisters: "No, well, it's enough for you to have a heart." ”

"But you didn't give me a gift on my birthday, it's even." Vera said.

"When is your birthday?" Wei Jia'an said, "After you came here, or before?" We didn't know each other before, and you haven't come here yet. After that, you don't say it. ”

"Just a few days ago." Vera said, "If it weren't for the fact that I'd not be talking about it now, I'd have forgotten it myself." ”

"If it weren't for Jiajia, I would be pretty much the same, I don't remember birthdays much in the past." Wei Jia'an lied without blushing at all. He was joking, of course, "That, Vera, I suddenly thought, there wasn't before, now I can have it." How about I make up for you now? The gift is still exchanged, but there is no now, and when you have it in the future, you will make up for me as a gift. I don't want anything, just give me an artifact. ”

Vera replied solemnly, "I don't have an artifact. ”

"You don't want an artifact, it's okay to be a little closer, like epic-level equipment."

"My armor and axe are, but I can't give them to you." Vera said, "I wonder if there's anything else. I went to the Elven Empire once before and bought a dagger with very fine workmanship, but kept it at home. As I come to think of it, there's one thing that you definitely like, something that's interesting, and I get it once in a while. The little devil in the bottle, you can ask it questions, and it can answer you no matter what the question, it's all wrong. ”

Do you play really? Wei Jia'an hurriedly said: "I'll just say it casually, just kidding, I don't need you to give gifts." ”

"But I want to send it." Vera said, "Wait until I go back, if I have a chance to come back......"

"We'll talk about that later." Wei Jia'an was sincere, "Seriously, Vera, whatever you want, I will give it to you as a birthday gift for you." ”

"I don't really want anything."

"Just say one."

Vera was silent for a moment, and she said: "Nuclear bomb, I want nuclear bomb, if there is that thing, the empire can definitely win." ”

"Are you telling the truth?" Wei Jia'an said.

"Joke." Vera smiled.

Wei Jia'an was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"I said yes, what is Jiajia's birthday?" Vera asked curiously.

Wei Jia'an calculated, he said: "Jiajia's birthday is still very long, the end of August in the lunar calendar, and it is estimated that it will be October in the solar calendar...... Well, you know, she's not my own sister, she's adopted by our family. So none of us knew about her real birthday, it was just when we adopted her. ”

"October." Vera pondered, "When I get back, if the war isn't so urgent, maybe it'll be her birthday." ”

Wei Jia'an waved his hand, and he said, "Don't worry about her, your affairs matter." ”

"I'll talk about that later." Vera said, "Take it apart and see, what gift did Jiajia give you?" ”

"I was still thinking about whether to open it now, or wait until my birthday."

"Let's open now, same." Vera looked like she had been piqued with curiosity, "What's that?" ”

"The box is not big, so it's ......" Wei Jia'an gave up, "I can't guess what it is." ”

"In previous years, Jiajia gave you some gifts?"

"Year is different, there are no similarities, there is no reference."

"It must be something you like, she must give you what you like, or something you need, it is impossible to give something you don't like and don't need." Vera's guess was normal.

The gift was placed on the table, Wei Jia'an looked at it like this, and said: "If it's Jiajia, maybe you can make it, give it to you what you like, and finally take it yourself." I've done similar things before, and I admire her too. Let her go out to help buy milk tea, ask me what I want, I casual, she doesn't think about what I like, buy what she likes. ”

Vera rightfully said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it...... I must buy what I like, and I want to buy what I don't like for you. Unless it's a nasty person, buy something he doesn't like. ”

Wei Jia'an thought about it, it seemed to make some sense, and he quickly reacted, he said: "But she knows what I like, I don't like too sweet, but she sold the milk cap." ”

"I think it's still your fault, since you said it, don't pick and choose."

Wei Jia'an wanted to speak and stopped, stopped talking and desired, but in the end he didn't speak.

"Anyway, Jiajia is usually quirky, I can't figure out what she usually thinks about." When he said this, Wei Jia'an smiled, without the slightest resentment, only love. Messing around on small things, big problems are never ambiguous, knowing what can and can't be done, remembering your birthday intimate gifts, gloating over small things, when you are really in a bad mood, knowing that comforting you cares about you, the perfect sister.

Wei Jia'an picked up the gift, but still didn't open it: "I don't have anything I like, I bought what I needed, and I didn't need to wait for her to buy it for me." Only her gifts, they were all told to me in advance, usually the very expensive kind, I bought them for her, and waited until her birthday to give them to her. ”

"What I like...... Such a big one is definitely not a graphics card, Jiajia doesn't have so much money, and a graphics card that costs thousands of dollars at every turn is not something that a junior high school student can afford. Wei Jia'an smiled when he thought of this, and remembered a picture, even if the graphics card is great, I still choose my sister, "Is it a mobile phone so big?" My phone is ok, it doesn't need to be replaced, and it's expensive. There is a little possibility with a mouse, the mouse is not expensive, I need it too, and it seems to be similar to look at this box. ”

"Just open it and take a look."

Wei Jia'an was also a little curious, and he didn't pay much attention to it when he thought about it, so he tore open the gift package.

"What's that?" Vera games don't care to play.

"Figurines."
