Chapter 218: Unable to Return to China for the New Year
After all, Grandma Xiao is young and old, and after surgery, she is still very weak. The doctor told them that they should pay extra attention in the next few days and not be sloppy. So Grandpa Xiao spoke, and on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, the family accompanied the old lady in the hospital, expressing their determination to fight the pain with the old lady.
Grandma Xiao's injury disrupted Xiao Yiran and Lu Chuxi's original plan.
Xiao Yiran dreamed of taking their mother and daughter home, but was delayed again. But there is no way, grandma's body is important, so I can only pray for grandma's speedy recovery.
The day before Chinese New Year's Eve, seeing that his grandmother still didn't have much good feelings, Xiao Yiran had no choice but to apologize to Lu Chuxi, saying that he had missed the appointment and could not come back.
Knowing that Xiao Yiran could not return to China to accompany them for the New Year, Lu Chuxi did not make trouble unreasonably, but generously expressed his understanding.
Although I feel a little lost in my heart, this is also something that cannot be helped.
The more reasonable she behaved, the more reluctant Xiao Yiran felt in her heart.
He was reluctant to let their mother and daughter spend the New Year alone. is even more reluctant to let Lu Chuxi celebrate his birthday alone again. He hopes that on the day of family reunion during the Spring Festival, he can be by her side and let her feel the warmth of home.
Xiao Yiran gave Lu Chuxi countless suggestions, such as asking her to take them to Chen's house for the New Year. Chen Yixuan and Ye Mengchen had proposed before that they should celebrate the New Year together during the Spring Festival.
That's a good idea. But Lu Chuxi was afraid that S City would be too cold, and Xiao Yiyi couldn't stand it, so he could only give up.
In the end, Lu Chuxi decided to go back to the orphanage as usual and celebrate the New Year with the children.
"Good. I will prepare the relevant things for the New Year, so that you and Yi Yi can have a happy New Year. Xiao Yiran said on the other end of the phone.
Lu Chuxi thought to himself, without you by my side, how could I really be happy to celebrate the New Year? However, in order not to distract Xiao Yiran, she did not show loss.
Early in the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, the threshold of the orphanage in G City was almost trampled by the takeaway brother. These takeaways, the recipients are all Lu Chuxi.
At ten o'clock, when Lu Chuxi came to the orphanage with them one by one, he learned that Xiao Yiran, who was originally far away on the other side of the ocean, ordered a lot of takeout for them through his mobile phone.
There were not only gifts for the children, but also gifts from the orphanage staff, and even the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was prepared by him and delivered to the door by the hotel staff.
Lu Chuxi counted the takeaways one by one, and then was secretly jealous: This Xiao Yiran, everyone has gifts, but she doesn't have them! No, she's jealous, so she has to find Xiao Yiran to settle an account.
XTXDLSM: Everyone's gifts have been received. I even have them one by one, why don't I have them?
WeChat sent it out for a long time, but I didn't see a reply there. Thinking that Xiao Yiran's grandmother was still in the hospital and he had to take care of his grandmother, he suddenly felt sorry for him and stopped bothering him.
XTXDLSM: Forget it, I'm not angry. Just remember that you owe me two gifts.
The WeChat she sent out sank to the bottom of the sea with no response. But she didn't have the heart to think about it, just because it was time for the reunion dinner.
Looking at the big table of food, the happiest thing is the children in the orphanage. They smiled brightly and happily checked in, even if the elders gave the order, they could enjoy the food.
Lu Chuxi was also infected by the bright smiles of the children, picked up his mobile phone, and took pictures of the food on the next table. Then he said, "Happy New Year, children!" ”
"Happy New Year, Sister Niannian!"
"Happy New Year, Yiyi!" The children in the orphanage like little one by one. With them here, Lu Chuxi almost doesn't care about Xiao Yiyi, they will take good care of Xiao Yiyi.
At the dinner table, Xiao Yiyi also sat with everyone for a reunion dinner.
When she saw the delicacies prepared for Xiao Yiyi on the table, even the dean's mother sighed: "Yiyi's father is really considerate and careful." ”
Lu Chuxi said yes, her father is a spoiled girl, but he complained in his heart: It's better to be a daughter. She, his wife, is not valued by him at all.
Today is her birthday, although she didn't take the initiative to mention it, but didn't he cook longevity noodles for himself last year?
This year is good, there are no gifts, no birthday wishes, and no longevity noodles.
I thought indignantly in my heart: Okay, you Xiao Yiran, you keep saying that you love me, but you even forgot my birthday! Sure enough, what a man says about loving you on some specific occasions can't be taken seriously.
Forget it, I don't want to think about it, I get angry when I think about it. Let's enjoy the food seriously!
According to the custom of previous years, the G City Orphanage will send a birthday cake to Lu Chuxi after the reunion dinner at noon.
But tonight, after lunch, the dean said to Lu Chuxi apologetically: "Nian Nian, something happened suddenly, and I didn't expect you to come back for the New Year." So it's too late to prepare you a birthday cake today. ”
"It's okay, Mother Lin. Having you by me is the best gift I can give! Lu Chuxi hugged Dean Lin and said gratefully.
It's still the dean's mother who treats her well and remembers her birthday. This is the first birthday wish she has received so far.
Oh no, in addition to that, the major banks have also sent her a lot of birthday wishes.
"What are your plans for the afternoon?" The dean suddenly asked Lu Chuxi this sentence.
"I don't have any plans, if Mother Lin doesn't dislike us, we'll still be eating here tonight?" Lu Chuxi said mischievously.
"If you don't dislike it, how can you dislike it? Later, we are going to take the children to play outside, and we will dine outside tonight, and you and Yiyi will come together! As soon as the dean's words were finished, he saw Lu Chuxi's face full of surprise.
After so many years in the orphanage, there are very few opportunities to go to the restaurant collectively. Plus it's Chinese New Year's Eve, and it's more expensive to eat outside. I haven't heard who funded it, why do you suddenly want to go out to eat?
"The kids have been very well-behaved lately, so this is a reward for them. Thanks to the help of you and your friends over the years, the orphanage has the funds to give the children a better life. ”
Dean Lin's explanation was very reasonable, and Lu Chuxi also felt that it was a good thing when he heard it.
"You and Yiyi go to rest first, and we'll set off at half past five. I'm going to change into nice clothes, and you can get me a hairstyle later." After speaking, the dean prepared to leave. Before leaving, he didn't forget to say: "Everyone has to attend beautifully tonight." ”
Lu Chuxi laughed when he heard this. When did this dean's mother start to pay attention to dressing up?
"Bleaching beautiful?" Lu Chuxi repeated this word, and then looked at Xiao Yiyi, who was surrounded by children not far away and was spoiled by the children, and said to himself: "Fortunately, our mother and daughter are dressed quite beautifully and festively." ”
The Chinese New Year is going to be prosperous, and this morning Lu Chuxi put on a red coat for her daughter. And hers, is a mother-daughter outfit. It's pretty good, I don't have to go home and clean it up.
Suddenly I wondered where the dean's mother would take them to the restaurant? I'm looking forward to the evening!
