A few days before Christmas, the shops on the streets are already dressed up, with streamers and balloons hanging everywhere, revealing the festive atmosphere everywhere.

Xia Yuyang also bought some things to decorate to make the house look lively. On the night before Christmas, Amanda brought back a Christmas tree from somewhere and placed it in the fenced open space at the door.

Xia Yuyang was a little speechless and watched Amanda tinkering with the Christmas tree at the door. Fortunately, this Christmas tree has been decorated before Amanda moves it home, and she only needs to put the tree at the door and find a way to connect the electricity, otherwise Xia Yuyang will have to go out temporarily to buy lanterns and other things to decorate, and she will be in a hurry.

"Amanda, where did you get such a tree?" Xia Yuyang curiously fiddled with the fake gift boxes that he brought with the tree, and then looked at Amanda who was busy with the tree and the wire, "It's all this time, the store shouldn't sell Christmas trees, right?" And the Christmas trees sold outside don't seem to have these gift boxes. ”

"I moved back from the mall near our company." Amanda disagreed, and after putting the tree steady and piling up some snow, Amanda began to put the gift boxes in place again. "Anyway, there are so many trees over there, and it's nothing for me to move one, how beautiful it looks here!"

The corners of Xia Yuyang's mouth twitched a little, why do they have so many trees over there?

"Amanda, you just moved the tree away, they didn't say anything?" In fact, Xia Yuyang wanted to ask, why didn't the security guard stop you. "The manager of the mall has no opinion?"

"What are they going to say?" Amanda set up the gift box and began to install the small fence again, "Mall manager? He dares to have an opinion! My dad opened that mall, so I moved a tree, what's wrong? ”

Xia Yuyang had nothing to say. It's no wonder that Amanda doesn't go to the nearby mall and goes to great lengths to run near the company...... It turned out that I went to get my own things.

"But when I moved the tree, the manager seemed to be trying to stop me." Amanda tilted her head and thought about it, then shook her head again, "Leave her alone, let's get this tree right first." When I went, they seemed to be going to remove the tree...... So I didn't have much of a problem moving back! ”

Xia Yuyang was accustomed to Amanda's big smugness, so he stepped forward to help Amanda install a small fence together, and by the way, he tidied up the small lanterns on the tree.

"Yuyang, take a look, is it okay to put it like this?" Amanda looked up at Xia Yuyang, who was arranging the lanterns, "I think this tree should add some ornaments or something?" The things they had put on them were removed when I moved them. So we're going to decorate ourselves. ”

"It just so happens that there are some ribbon bows left in the house, so you can make do with them!" Xia Yuyang went to the house and took out a big bow left when he decorated the room, and tied it on the top of the Christmas tree. "Doesn't it look better like this? Or do you want to put something more on it? ”

As if remembering something, Amanda slammed up and ran into the house. A few minutes later, Amanda came out with a large package.

Throwing the package on the ground, Amanda panted this time and said: "I bought these last year, but the package was a month late and missed Christmas!" It's just right now to take it out and use it! ”

Xia Yuyang opened the package, and it turned out that there were some small dolls of Santa Claus and some small gift boxes and colored balls made of foam. After taking out the little things in the box and hanging them on the tree, the two of them began to study how to connect the plugs of these small lanterns to the sockets.

After an afternoon of tossing, the two of them finally decorated the house inside and out.

"Yikes!" Amanda, who was resting on the sofa, suddenly shouted, startling Xia Yuyang, "I forgot to buy you Christmas gifts!" ”

"Didn't you just buy Christmas presents, that's okay." Xia Yuyang let out a long breath, "I thought it was a big deal!" Scared the hell out of me! ”

"No way!" Amanda sat up from the couch, "You can live without gifts, but little Sui'an can't!" I'm going to buy a gift now! ”

Amanda ran out to buy gifts in a hurry.

Xia Yuyang shook his head, got up and went to the kitchen to make dinner. If Amanda doesn't have anything to eat when she comes back, she will probably be hungry again. And it's almost time for dinner, Xia Sui'an is probably hungry, right?

Xia Yuyang took out the ingredients that had been prepared in the morning and made a simple meal. Since Xia Yuyang lived in Amanda's house, Amanda rarely ate Western food.

It's not because Xia Yuyang can't do it, but because Amanda fell in love with it after eating Chinese food once. And her favorite food is sweet and sour tenderloin and braised fish, every time Xia Yuyang makes these two dishes, Amanda can eat two more bowls of rice, and after eating, she lies motionless on the sofa, saying that her stomach is uncomfortable.

Xia Yuyang still made these two dishes today, but after learning from the past, Xia Yuyang specially cooked less rice today, in case Amanda ate it again.

Xia Sui'an spent all afternoon painting, and he liked to paint when no one was playing with him. After lunch, Xia Yuyang took a nap with Xia Sui'an, and went to toss the Christmas tree with Amanda.

Xia Sui'an woke up and went downstairs, and saw Xia Yuyang and Amanda busy with a tree, although he didn't know what Xia Yuyang and Amanda were busy with, he went back to the room very obediently, took out the drawing paper and pen in the drawer, and drew quietly by himself.

From the time he discovered that Xia Sui'an liked to draw, Xia Yuyang began to teach Xia Sui'an to learn sketching. Although Xia Sui'an was in a daze most of the time, every time Xia Yuyang taught him, he could draw it by himself when he drew the second time, and he drew it very well.

Xia Sui'an is talented in painting, although he is only five years old, he can already help people paint portraits. With his superhuman memory, Xia Sui'an already has many portraits of people in the drawer where he puts his paintings, basically all of them are people Xia Sui'an has only met once on the road, but most of them are his mother Xia Yuyang.

And what he wants to paint today is not Xia Yuyang.

Thinking about the face in his memory, Xia Sui'an stammered and drew the face of the person in his memory on the paper. Gradually, the outline of a man appeared on a blank piece of paper.

But Xia Sui'an seemed to be very dissatisfied, and kept wiping and changing on that piece of paper, frowning slightly, as if he was thinking about a very serious matter.

It wasn't until Xia Yuyang came up to ask Xia Sui'an to eat that Xia Sui'an finished the painting.

Hearing the sound of Xia Yuyang opening the door, Xia Sui An Xing showed Xia Yuyang the words he had just finished. Xia Yuyang was originally very happy to take over the painting, but when she saw the person on the painting, she was directly stunned.
