Chapter 36 Birthday Wishes and Gifts
This time when they went home, the sign that they were closed at the door was still hanging all the time, and it was obvious that they needed more time to recover and recuperate, because the lady had injured her ribs, and the professor took on the job of cooking every day, while Ji was in charge of washing the dishes.
Anfen rested for more than a month, the lady's injury was finally healed, the young master occasionally had to run to the hospital, and because of this incident, the family's opposition to his work was getting bigger and bigger, he was not very comfortable recently, although he still ate and drank well, and played games all day long.
The professor didn't cook tonight.
When the lady went downstairs, she was told so.
But just as she frowned and said that she had come to cook herself, the little boy and the old man brought out a lot of dishes, and in the center was a cake.
February 19th is a lady's birthday.
"Don't remind me I'm a year older." She wanted to keep her face, but she couldn't help but cover her face and smile.
She hadn't mentioned it to them, and she didn't even care if the days were too muddy, but when they first cheered, she guessed what they were going to do before they could bring the food out.
After she got up from a nap and glanced at the date, she sighed.
It has become the current sour eye socket and the tip of the nose.
The three of them picked up the peaked hat from behind and put it on, Adams pulled the salute again, this time Ji joined in, the streamer hung on her, the professor put the prepared peaked hat on her, and they gathered around the old lady to the table.
The lady choked and laughed, not knowing what to say, unable to say anything, she covered her face and just laughed, and the little boys began to sing "Happy Birthday to You", and the professor did not speak, but stood aside and watched quietly.
The lady looked at the number 26 on the top of this cake and blew out the candle to make a wish.
It would be nice to remember this scene all the time.
How good it would be if even if they were forced to go to the West and East, the four of them could always be safe at the ends of the earth.
Mrs. Leo didn't get off work after cleaning today, the young master left her and asked her to take a group photo, the lady who didn't smile much smiled with peach blossoms, the professor looked at the camera, but didn't laugh, just watched quietly, standing next to the lady, the two little boys grimaced behind the lady, and smeared cream on her face while she wasn't paying attention.
The lady didn't press them to the ground and beat them today.
She wiped her face with a handkerchief, several people dined together, the lady was in a good mood today and drank a glass of red wine, and she cut a cake for everyone with her own hands.
"I'm going to wash the pictures out tomorrow." The young master smiled with the camera.
"Don't wash the second one!" It was a picture of her being smeared with cream, and she leaned back against the old gentleman's right arm, and the old gentleman was squeezed and turned over with a slight smile, and the two little boys smiled and stretched out their claws to chase her.
Everyone in the second one is so vivid.
After dinner, the little boys washed the dishes, the lady was the birthday star, the professor was the chef, and she came to the office, and her desk was full of gifts.
The new beige windbreaker is estimated to have been given by Ji Qing; The bag is estimated to have been given by the young master; The last bag, a white evening dress, should have been given by the professor, and she picked it up and looked at it, it was still a breast-length one-shouldered model.
She sighed and put it away.
"Don't like it?" The professor asked. "I sent it on purpose."
In their habits, they usually don't give something so personal and already presumptuous, which is against decency.
"Do you think I look like someone wearing this?" The lady asked rhetorically, she had drunk a lot tonight, and she was a little embarrassed.
She drinks easily and on her face, but not necessarily on her head, so she doesn't like to drink too much, and today is an exception.
"I can't say for sure, but if you can use it one day, you might as well wear it and see it." The professor smiled, and walked over. "I have another thing for you."
"If it's because of the last manor incident, then you don't have to, you know I don't like to owe favors, so I should have paid you back that time." The lady put the gift box in order and said that again.
This time, the professor said with a smirk, "I don't know." ”
"Isn't it strange that I bought everything I bought and didn't give it away?"
"You can keep it for yourself." The lady didn't want to take it.
Even if the help of each other is offset, at least she ......
"You also gave me a bottle of cologne, so think of it as a gift in return."
"There's this skirt......"
"On my birthday, you can give me back the love of this dress." The professor interrupted her.
"When......" the lady asked, and immediately shut up.
"October 24." The professor replied immediately.
He said that to this point, the lady could only reply, "Okay." ”
"Then take a look at this gift." He stretched out his hands, and in each hand there was a box of Sephiroth, and they had good jewelry and watches, and both boxes were identical.
"Is it one or the other?" The lady asked.
"Buy one get one free." Teach a serious book.
She pondered for a moment, then pointed to the box in her right hand, and the professor gave her the box in her left hand, and stopped her when she was about to open it, and he opened the gift box in his right hand, and inside was a silver necklace.
A few silver vines wrapped in brilliant sapphires, and in the central swirl, there seemed to be a small diamond.
"This ...... It's too ...... "precious."
The lady wanted to refuse.
"Nothing valuable." The old man said. "At least for me."
He saw that the lady still didn't mean to accept it, picked up the necklace, and put the box on her desk, the same action as when he took the pocket watch in the B&B that day, he said: "If the lady doesn't come down that day, I'm sure I'm in danger, but the lady also takes a huge risk when she comes down, why?" ”
As he spoke, he untied the necklace and ruffled her hair and hung it up.
The lady suddenly became nervous, her blood was swelling, but fortunately her face was ruddy, and the professor pushed her hair to the front to cover her red earlobes in order to wear a necklace, and her breath was full of the smell of this old gentleman, and she said softly: "I just don't want to see familiar people go away anymore." ”
This time he did the trick, and it was the lady's birthday, and her defenses were broken a little.
"Really?" The professor let go of his hand, and some cold silver chains hung around her neck, and he reached out to take the gift box in the lady's hand, and opened it again, it was a women's watch with an off-white silver dial. "Your watch is a little old, you probably wore it when you were a student."
"I've been wearing it for a long time and already have feelings." She said softly, the meaning of her words was still refusal, but what about her actions? If she really resists, where can the professor succeed.
The professor took her hand up, dismantled the watch with which she had a deep affection, put it in Sephiroth's gift box, and said, "Then the lady must not like the new and hate the old, but treasure it." ”
Then he put on a new watch for her and said, "Remember, don't take it off wherever you are." ”
It was rare for him to speak so solemnly, and the lady did not answer, but he repeated it again, and the lady looked into his eyes, looked away for a moment, and nodded.
He stared at her face, but she avoided looking at his tie knot.
Although it is true that she is at this height at eye level.
