Ancient people did not attach much importance to birthdays, but the coming-of-age ceremony and 60 birthdays must be lived, the life span of ancient people was not long, and it was a high life to be able to pass 60, which needed to be celebrated.

is now celebrating his birthday, but the eldest son of the emperor's businessman, a figure with a head and a face, and many famous families in Beijing are already congratulating.

Chen Yuanyuan pursed her lips, she and Huangfu Shaohua also knew each other, and they were born on the same day and month, so it was a rare fate?

It's just that their Chen family is a small family, and they are afraid that if they don't enter the door, they will be kicked out.

simply don't worry about it anymore, at most I will congratulate him next time we meet.

After a busy day, the three members of the Chen family got off work early and went back to celebrate their eldest daughter's birthday.

Early in the morning, Tong had already taken Chen Qingqing to buy the ingredients, and even made dinner at home and waited for the three of them to come back.

As soon as she arrived home, Chen Yuanyuan was dragged to the room by her sister.

When she saw the new clothes on the bed, she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time.

The common people do not dress like some large families, the color of the clothes still needs to be exquisite, the silk weaving industry in the Northern Dynasties is developed, and there are not too many restrictions on the color of clothing, the color is brighter, and the light and plain are cheaper.

At present, there is a red jacket skirt on the bed, and the edging of the cardigan is sewn with small flower dark patterns, and the waist is smooth and delicate, and the drape texture is not an ordinary cotton and linen fabric at a glance.

Look at the size is clearly sewn according to her body shape!

Chen Qingqing smiled again and again: "Sister, the jacket and skirt are sewn by my mother, and the blouse is made by my mother." Sister, put it on, it's beautiful! ”

For most of the month, my mother and grandmother sewed on the eldest sister's back, in order to surprise the eldest sister.

Chen Yuanyuan gently stroked the bright dress, and her nose was sour.

It is not easy to sew a piece of clothing, my mother must be a candle to work during the day, and my grandmother's eyes are not good, so it is even more difficult to take a needle.

In addition, the materials used and even the silk threads are very different from the past, which is obviously time-consuming.

I'm afraid that the Chen family will never be able to find a more expensive thing than this skirt.

Daily necessities at home, if she hadn't bought them back on weekdays, I was afraid that she would not even be willing to buy a good one, but she was willing to buy her clothes...... How could she be indifferent?

She quickly turned her head away, blinking her slightly pantothenic eyes.

"I have clothes, so I'll sell them at the market tomorrow."

"No! This is my sister's gift, and it can't be sold! ”

"What do you want and gifts, tomorrow you can sell it for silver, and you can also buy a new set of clothes for your parents and grandmothers for the New Year."

"Sister! No way, no way! ”

Chen Qingqing took a deep breath and held her little hand tightly, "Sister wants to tell a story on stage, but she can't wear clothes that don't fit, it's a joke." This life is only once in time, and it will be too late to make up for it in the future. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Yuanyuan sneered unkindly.

She was already holding her sister in her arms: "You girl is obviously younger than me, why do you talk like a little adult, in the future, you and Yunsheng's coming-of-age ceremony, set a good family for you, take care of you!" ”

Chen Qingqing was amused and laughed, and she came out of her sister's arms with a red face, and persuaded her eldest sister to change her clothes.

Chen Yuanyuan nodded and smiled sweetly, she was already freshened up and changed into clothes.

She looked at the delicate girl in front of the mirror, a red dress was cute and delicate, and her face was ruddy and lovely. She spun around in place, her heart warming...... After today, she'll be an adult!

Suddenly, there is a thing called responsibility in the bottom of my heart!

Chen's mother waited outside for a while, and had already entered the house to look for her.

Seeing that the eldest daughter has grown up, there is relief and emotion in her eyes.

She stood aside with red eyes and said, "Mother combs your hair." ”

And the girl who is in the flute can use a hairpin.

Chen Yuanyuan sat in front of the mirror, and saw that Chen's mother used a wooden hairpin to magically pull the best girl's hairstyle for her.

After finishing the makeup, she turned around suddenly, hugged Chen's mother's waist, and was like an entangled child affectionately coquettish on her mother's waist.

"Mother, thank you, Yuanyuan likes it very much."

"Silly girl......"

Chen's mother stroked her hair with relief, and sighed in her heart - the Chen family has a girl who has just grown up.

***

When Chen Yuanyuan came out, the courtyard was already full of people.

Most of the people in the small courtyard are acquaintances, neighbors, and a large family of skin monkeys, who are frolicking.

At this time, when I saw her come out in a red dress, she held her breath and was quiet for a while.

Children from poor families rarely wear red clothes, and Chen Yuanyuan usually has clear soup and noodles, and at this time, a touch of crimson lips is amazing.

Chen's father, Chen's mother, and Tong's were sitting in the first seat at this time and smiling at her.

Chen Yuanyuan didn't understand ancient etiquette, but at this moment, when she saw the three people on the seat, her heart was surging, and she couldn't help but step forward and kneel on the futon.

With his hands folded, he kowtowed to the three of them reverently.

"Thank you for your father's and mother's kindness, and thank your grandmother for your kindness."

Hearing this, the three of them also had red eyes.

Although the girl is about to get married eventually, she has been raising her for more than ten years, and the palms and backs of her hands are full of meat.

"Okay, get up."

The younger siblings on the side were already holding teapots and teacups, and she immediately offered tea to the three elders, who smiled at each other tacitly.

After a while, Chen Yuanyuan stood up again and toasted tea to the elders who came one by one.

Those who came were all acquaintances, and they sent congratulatory gifts.

Although it is not expensive, it is all common eggs, wild vegetables and a little game, but she is still full of joy. However, the leather monkey gave her a small bamboo flute with a halterneck, saying that as long as it was blown in the imperial capital, it could be used for self-defense.

It's time for dinner.

Everyone looked at a large table of dishes full of color and aroma, and the square table could not be placed, and they were also amazed.

They all know that Chen Yuanyuan is telling stories in Fulai Building, and the rewards are full of pot, and the Chen family's jade skin lotion is also selling well recently, and they are envious and praised.

The meal lasted for more than an hour, and the night grew thicker.

In the cold winter, everyone eats hot, and they don't feel cold.

In order to celebrate, Chen's father rarely bought a few taels of wine.

Chen Yuanyuan drank a lot of wine in her previous life, and after taking a few sips at this time, she was even more greedy, but Chen's father just didn't give it, so she had to pout sullenly.

She was depressed when there was a knock on the door of her home.

When she was near, she went to open the door.

There was a small servant standing outside the door.

"But Miss Yuanyuan?"

"Exactly."

She frowned suspiciously, only to see the little servant holding a sandalwood box in his hand forward.

"Miss Yuanyuan, this is a gift from my young master to the girl."

"Your young master? Huangfu Shaohua??? ”

Seeing that the girl directly said the young master's name, the little girl couldn't help frowning, this girl was really rude, he really couldn't figure out why the young master would give a rude gift to a poor girl.

Chen Yuanyuan stretched out her head, looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, and she also knew that it was impossible for Huangfu Shaohua to come, so for some reason there was a sudden feeling of depression in her heart.
