Chapter 16: Happy Birthday 1

On Sunday, Shang Xiaoshu rarely slept a big night, but he stayed in bed until half past nine in the morning.

To be exact, it is to wake up on time, but I don't think about it, lying in bed and playing with my mobile phone, brushing the circle of friends, and scrolling Weibo, which is a rare moment of self-discipline for Shang Xiaoshu.

Although I lay down in bed at half past 10 last night, I didn't go back to my aunt's house to sleep for a while, and I was not used to the noise of the downtown area, mainly the sound of passing vehicles. Whether it is the company dormitory near the river or his own house on the outskirts of Shang Xiaoshu, it is quite quiet at night. So I couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, and then I was too sleepy, and I slowly became immune to the sound of the vehicle, and then I fell asleep.

In the morning, I still wake up according to the inertia of my biological clock, here is some distance from the nearest river and park, running along the road, Shang Xiaoshu feels too stupid, so continue to lie in bed and play.

Today is her birthday on the solar calendar, and it is also the birthday on her ID card. As soon as you open your mobile phone, QQ, WeChat, Weibo, including banks, securities and various financial APPs have birthday wishes popping up, and all kinds of auspicious texts and voices are overwhelming.

"Happy birthday to you!" It is the most frequent sentence.

As usual, I have received several big red envelopes, including fixed birthday red envelopes from previous years, such as those from the big boss, the boss's wife, the aunt's, Vice President Chen Sancheng, Chen Jiayi's, and the former uncle Zhang Xiaojun.

No matter how unreliable Zhang Xiaojun is, Shang Xiaoshu always feels that her former uncle has always been good to her. At least after her grandmother's death, Yu Xin wanted to adopt Shang Xiaoshu, and Zhang Xiaojun agreed despite his concerns. Every time Shang Xiaoshu returned to his aunt's house during the holiday, Zhang Xiaojun was also busy giving Zhang Luo delicious food and picking him up at the station. For Shang Xiaoshu, Zhang Xiaojun has always had a nurturing grace for her. Therefore, even after the aunt and Zhang Xiaojun divorced, Shang Xiaoshu and Zhang Xiaojun still kept in touch, but changed the title from "little uncle" to "Uncle Zhang".

I have received all the other red envelopes, and I sincerely thank them one by one, and I am sincerely grateful.

Shang Xiaoshu still didn't accept Zhang Xiaojun, but replied, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang!" I got it. I also wish you a happy life and happiness! ”

In the past two years, Zhang Xiaojun has always had the idea of getting back together with his aunt, Zhang Meng does not support or object, he asked Shang Xiaoshu what he thinks, and Shang Xiaoshu also answered truthfully, she doesn't want to interfere, and let Auntie's matter be decided.

This year, Shang Xiaoshu's Alipay has added two new red envelopes, Chen Jianing's and Zhang Meng's, Shang Xiaoshu is a little surprised, and I think it's very interesting.

First opened Chen Jianing's, the amount of the red envelope was 1666 yuan, and the birthday greeting said, "My respected teacher Shang is twenty-eight this year, I wish her a happy birthday, a smooth day, and a good day."

The amount of red envelopes sent by Zhang Meng is 166.6, and there is only one sentence "Sister, happy birthday, happy".

Is this a discussion between the two?

Many people know that Chen Jianing knew Shang Xiaoshu when he was a child, isn't this normal? Will the secretary of the big boss know the only daughter of the big boss?

In fact, except for the two families, everyone may not know that Shang Xiaoshu really didn't know Chen Jianing through the big boss.

When Shang Xiaoshu was an intern at Chen's Home Furnishing Company, survival was her first priority, and she spent days and nights figuring out how to make money. Posting part-time advertisements on local forums, being a tutor is one of Shang Xiaoshu's part-time jobs, and he comes to tutor primary and secondary school students. said that it was primary and secondary school students, and Shang Xiaoshu still tried to choose primary school students and junior high school students when selecting students. As for high school students, even if their parents agree, she doesn't have the courage to tutor as a college student.

The result is that there is no coincidence that there is no book, Shang Xiaoshu became a tutor to the boss's house, and under the inspection of the boss's wife, he became the tutor of junior high school student Chen Jianing. Accompany the teacher to play on the weekend, and also give a little playmate who is about the same age as Chen Jiayi, Shang Xiaoshu's cousin. The aunt works in the factory and often works overtime on Saturdays and Sundays, and Zhang Meng is usually carried by Shang Xiaoshu.

Although he only tutored for a year, Chen Jiayi went abroad to study in high school, but the name "Teacher Shang" was called.

Shang Xiaoshu also replied to Chen Jianing, "Thank you Miss Chen Er for your blessings and red envelopes, accompany the chairman and Mr. Ning well, the company and the family are very good!" ”

The big boss has only three brothers, and the next generation is a big rank, but men and women are ranked separately, Chen Jianing's nickname is said to have been given by her grandfather, called "Er Niu", and she herself jokingly called herself Miss Chen Er. There are also "three girls" and "four girls", which are the two daughters of Chen Sancheng's family.

No matter what you say, receiving so many blessings on your birthday, especially with red envelopes, is still quite happy for Shang Xiaoshu, who is a fan of money.

I'm 28 years old. Shang Xiaoshu was born on August 30, 1987.

In fact, in the past many years, especially when grandma was still alive, Shang Xiaoshu generally only celebrated the lunar birthday. The rural recognition of the lunar birthday is a reason, and there is still a good memory of the lunar birthday of Shang Xiaoshu, the seventh day of the seventh month, the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet once a year in the ancient legend. Also known as the "Begging Festival".

Therefore, when Shang Xiaoshu was very young, he heard his grandmother tell the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. At that time, Shang Xiaoshu asked his grandmother in confusion, "Isn't the Weaver Girl a fairy?" Why can't the Cowherd change her clothes after she hides the Weaver Girl's clothes? ”

She watches TV, the gods in movies and TV series are omnipotent, Sun Wukong can change seventy-two, pull out a monkey hair, blow it casually, and you can change another Sun Wukong, not to mention a piece of clothing. If the Weaver Girl can immediately change into a dress after the Cowherd hides her clothes, she doesn't have to marry the Cowherd. Shang Xiaoshu couldn't understand for a while, as the daughter of the Jade Emperor, why was the Weaver Girl so stupid?

Grandma thought about it, and estimated that the skills of the gods and the gods were different. The niece also likes the Cowherd, and just wants to marry the Cowherd.

Shang Xiaoshu still doesn't agree with Grandma's explanation, she often plays with the neighbor's children, if someone hides her clothes and asks her to play the daughter-in-law, see if she doesn't beat that person fat! If you can't beat it, you have to fight, and you can't lose the momentum. It was also taught to her by her grandmother that she must have a backbone to be a man, "If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, if people offend me, I will offend people."

Although Grandma is illiterate, she knows a lot of folklore and stories.

It was also she who told Shang Xiaoshu that it is rumored that the husband and wife who gave birth to children on Qixi are both fateful couples, and they are a pair made in heaven, so they are easy to be jealous and suffer from life and death. However, their deep affection touched heaven and earth, and heaven and earth let their children be born on the day when the Cowherd and Weaver Girl met, creating opportunities for them to meet, whether they were alive or dead, they had the opportunity to meet on this day.

When he was a child, Shang Xiaoshu did have to wait until his birthday on the lunar calendar to see his father. Her father would bring beautiful new clothes, delicious snacks and fun toys to read Shang Xiaoshu, and then take Shang Xiaoshu and her grandmother to the most expensive restaurant on the street for a big meal.

Therefore, grandma said that Shang Xiaoshu was born on the seventh day of the seventh month, and he is also a child who has been blessed by all the gods in heaven. Because of jealousy, Shang Xiaoshu's mother fell ill and died early...... It wasn't until Shang Xiaoshu grew up that he deeply realized the warmth of grandma's story.

Later, after his grandmother died, Shang Xiaoshu went to a boarding school, and he was basically in school every lunar birthday. If it weren't for the fact that I would receive gifts and phone calls from my aunt before and after my birthday, I would almost ignore the birthday. Her father has remarried at this time, and he is still looking for the well-known "ignore it", and his father, who appears once a year, has never been seen since.

After studying and working, she, like most people around her, lived a birthday on the solar calendar, after all, whether it was when she was studying or after work, the birthday party was based on the date on her ID card, and she changed from a Tanabata girl to a Virgo girl.
