Ziqing and the three of them went back to Zeng's house directly, Ziqing was still worried about Zilu and Chen's affairs, and wanted to go home to find out the situation, after all, Ziqing was still more concerned about Zilu's affairs, and was worried that the two would have a disagreement because of this.

Who knew that when Ziqing and they entered the house, Zilu and Chen also came from Luyuan with the child in their arms and a smile, and when they looked at the expressions of the two, Ziqing also knew that they had reconciled, and a stone in their hearts fell to the ground.

This day is July 14, Lin Kangping's birthday, Ziqing knows that he has never had a birthday since his parents died, and Lin Kangping never mentioned his birthday, because it was the day before Halloween, and his parents died of illness within two years of his birth, and the locals thought he was a begging ghost, which is probably one of the reasons why his uncle and aunt sold him.

After breakfast, Ziqing instructed Lin An to go to Anzhou, Ziqing ordered a cake with her second sister-in-law Chen early, and after Lin An came back, Ziqing took the maid to the island secretly to decorate for a long time, wanting to surprise Lin Kangping.

After Lin Kangping entered the door, he saw that Ziqing was busy working in person, and the meal was so rich, so he hurriedly asked: "What is a good day today, Qing'er, you cook it yourself, it's so fragrant, I love to eat the food you make." As he spoke, he hugged Ziqing and kissed him.

It just so happened that Zeng Ruixiang and Shen brought Liu's mother and daughter and Zilu's family of three, Zishou, Zixi, and Ziyu in, and saw this scene, Liu smiled and quipped: "I don't think it's food, but my sister, watching you two live is like eating honey." ”

"yes, we're all envious. No wonder people say that a thousand miles of marriage are linked, but no, who would have thought that two people so far apart could become a family? I saw the two of them standing together, and they looked really good together. Chen also smiled.

"Alright, don't laugh at us, what a good day it is. So many people? Lin Kangping grinned and asked, Ziqing was pinching his waist from behind.

"What good days do you not know yourself? We didn't come here empty-handed, we came here to ask for a bowl of shou noodles to eat. Liu said.

Ziqing beckoned everyone to sit down. He served Lin Kangping a bowl of noodles first and said, "Today is your birthday, I specially surprised you." How, like it or not? ”

At this time, Shen first took out a new set of clothes and said: "Kangping, this is a little bit of my father and mother's heart, my mother wishes you, a lifetime of health and peace, just like your name, and Qing'er's days are getting more and more prosperous." The mother is content. ”

Lin Kangping was stunned for a long time before he said, "I don't seem to have told you what my birthday is." I never thought about birthdays. I've been worried and scared, afraid that you will find out about my birthday and dislike me, saying that I am a murderer, but I didn't expect you to know. I didn't expect you to not only dislike me, but also prepare a gift for me. It made me feel like family. After speaking, Lin Kangping kowtowed respectfully to Zeng Ruixiang and Shen. Thank you for the gift, thank you for giving me a home, and thank you for marrying Qing'er to me. ”

Shen hurriedly helped Lin Kangping up and said, "Child, as the saying goes, a son-in-law is also half a son. Since you are my son-in-law, you are naturally a family, don't say such foreign things in the future, my mother doesn't like to hear it. ”

Ziqing listened and shook Lin Kangping's hand and said, "That's right, we were originally your family." Let's not talk about the unpleasant things in the past, and have a happy meal. ”

"That's it, let's be practical, it's okay to invite us to a few more good meals, I can tell you, the third brother and I came empty-handed, so we brought a mouth, the gift is owed first, and you can make up for it later." Zixi said.

"Come less, I didn't have empty hands, I carved a seal for my brother-in-law." After Zishou finished speaking, he took out a white jade seal from his sleeve, and sat on a Pixiu plate in his hand.

"What kind of animal is this? It's not like a tiger, third brother, you have studied for several years, at this level, I can also carve a fox into a tiger. When did you engrave it, how do I not know? Zixi asked.

"You know what? This is called Pixiu, the legend is that it is a son of the Dragon King, representing wealth, you didn't look at it carefully, does it have a mouth and no anus? It means that only in and out, I heard that many large families or people who do business like to ask for this, isn't my brother-in-law also doing some business? I gave it to my brother-in-law, and I wish my brother-in-law not only health and safety, but also a wide range of money. Zishou said.

"Yo, when did the junior become so good at talking? Compared with the junior, ours is not worth mentioning, but it is also the sister-in-law's heart. After Liu finished speaking, he took a wooden box from the maid's hand, and opened it to see that it was a set of exquisite blue and white thin-tire Jingdezhen wine utensils.

The gift prepared by Zilu and Chan was a set of pastel tea sets.

Kang Ping thanked them one by one, and Zixi said: "It seems that my little sister and I have eaten white food, who called us the youngest, no way." ”

"Little brother, I also prepared a gift for my brother-in-law, look, I made a pair of socks and a pair of shoes for my brother-in-law, I don't eat white food." After Ziyu finished speaking, he opened the small burden in his hand, which was the shoes and socks that matched Shen's clothes.

"What are you doing? I'm the only one left to eat white food, you guys are too unkind, I originally wanted everyone to be a companion, mainly because I was afraid that you would be embarrassed, and you were too much, and you actually left me alone, not caring about brotherhood at all. Third brother, you are honest and honest, where did you get the money to buy jade? Zixi knocked on the table and shouted.

"This is a good piece of material that my brother-in-law picked out for me to practice knives, I have long wanted to carve a piece for my brother-in-law, no, I will use it." Zishou said.

"Little Si, it's not like you've eaten white food once or twice, your sister and brother-in-law won't complain about you, didn't I say it a long time ago, you eat it everywhere you go." After Liu finished speaking, everyone laughed.

"Okay, okay, if you keep talking, the dish should be cold." Zeng Ruixiang said.

"That's it, let's eat first, and in a while, there's something else to enjoy." Ziqing said.

Ziyu listened and hurriedly asked, "Sister, what's the fun?" ”

"Don't worry, take a break after eating, and you'll know when it's dark." Ziqing said.

After eating, everyone sat on the stone benches and rocking chairs in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness, Xiaolan gave a large plate of watermelon, and the family still laughed. It was dark, Xiaoqing came in and nodded to Ziqing, Ziqing said, "Let's go to the island and sit for a while." After speaking, he stood up first and helped Kangping to walk out.

As soon as he got on the pontoon bridge, Lin An lit a row of small fireworks on the ground, and the fire trees and silver flowers bloomed together, and the beauty was amazing. After crossing the pontoon bridge, the fireworks went down, and Xiaoqing and the others lit the candles on the stone table, twenty-one candles were arranged in a heart shape, and in the middle was a round cake, which was actually a modern cake blank, and there were seven or eight small bowls on the side of the stone table.

Xiaoqing took two chopsticks, and took turns beating on the small bowl, and the crisp "Happy Birthday to You" music sounded, Lin An and Lin Fu lit a large circle of heart-shaped fireworks on the ground, surrounding everyone in the middle, and the four little girls and the two maids also sang in unison, when singing "Happy Birthday to Kangping", Lin Kangping hugged Ziqing tightly, and Ziqing felt that there was a moist liquid rubbing against his cheeks.

"It's just that Qing'er has a lot of ghost ideas, and she has to come up with these tricks on her birthday, and even I can't help crying." Shen said.

"No, we've never seen it, who knows where my sister came from, no wonder Xianggong has always said that my sister has been eccentric since she was a child, and her mind is different from others. Now I really saw it. Liu also said with red eyes.

Ziqing took a bamboo knife from Xiaoqing's hand, handed it to Kang Ping, and said, "According to the rules, you have to cut this cake yourself." If you have any wishes, recite them three times in your heart, don't say them, just allow one, blow out the candle again, and then cut the cake and divide it for everyone to eat. ”

"Eldest sister, you have to give me one for my birthday this year, it's so beautiful, I like it so much." Ziyu said.

Ziqing nodded her head and said, "What birthday does the little broken fart child have?" Seeing that Ziyu pouted his mouth, Ziqing hurriedly responded with a smile, and after everyone ate the cake, they sat in the pavilion for a while, and the moon stars were thin, and then they dispersed.

Lin Kangping helped Ziqing back to the house, after Ziqing washed, he specially changed into a rose-red spun silk sundress, which lined the skin as white as jade, and prepared a beige spun silk short-sleeved nightgown for Lin Kangping, Lin Kangping saw Ziqing's makeup, picked it up and put it on the bed, rubbing Ziqing's whole body, Ziqing opened the strap of his nightgown, bit Lin Kangping's ear and said: "My mother said, three months later, it's okay to be light, I will give myself to you as a birthday gift, do you want it?" ”

Lin Kangping was surprised when he heard it, where could he hold back, hugged Ziqing, and moved cautiously. The two of them had been in drought for a long time, and they tossed until midnight, and suddenly heard Ziqing's "ouch".

Lin Kangping immediately got off Ziqing and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The child will move, you touch it, he must have an opinion about the two of us, he doesn't sleep so late, he can't sleep anymore." Ziqing said angrily.

Lin Kangping listened to Yiyan and put his hand on Ziqing's belly, and really touched the child's weak movement, Lin Kangping was so surprised that he refused to even sleep, and kept putting his hand on Ziqing's belly.

Early the next morning, Lin Kangping reluctantly set off for Yuecheng, Ziqing did not move back to Zeng's house this time, and there were many things in the family, so the two maids followed her into the west house of the inner courtyard and took turns to keep vigil next to her. (To be continued)
