The next day is the girl's birthday, Cui'er got up early in the morning, put the clothes that the girl and Xiaohu were going to wear before on the kang head of the West House, and she went to the kitchen and got busy.

The girl's birthday, Cui'er didn't mean to make a big deal, and the people who invited her to celebrate were mostly good children who played with the girl, such as Aunt Chunzhu's little yam, Yugui of the money shopkeeper's family, and the two good little girls in the village who played with the big girl.

Because it is mainly children who come to visit, the meals carefully prepared by Cui'er are not only colorful, but also very childlike.

For example, when stir-frying seasonal vegetables, you only need to cut cucumbers, radishes, and carrots into slices, but in order to make the children happy, Cui'er deliberately used a knife to cut the carrots vertically into several equal pieces, and then slice them down, and it became the shape of plum blossoms, which is very cute one by one.

Vegetables are made into various shapes, some are petals, some are leaves, and there are playful chickens or cute rabbits, and even the egg cakes are painted with syrup with a smiley face pattern, which is full of childlike fun.

"Miss, you are so powerful, how can you think of so many fun foods?" Xiang Mo was busy giving Cui'er a hand, burning the fire and brushing the dishes and the like, and when she looked back, she found that Cui'er had already made a lot of colorful dishes.

"If you think about it, you'll know!" Cui'er smiled and said, in fact, she didn't study much, just thought of herself as a child, thinking that if the dish was like this, or that, would it be cuter and more delicious, so she made this different thing.

After about half an hour, the sky was already bright. The big girl who didn't sleep for half a night because of excitement finally got up from the kang.

"Today is my birthday!" Thinking of this, the big girl couldn't help but smile and squint her eyes, thinking of the birthday gift that her mother said to herself, and smelling the faint aroma in the air. The girl's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and she rushed out with bare feet in her middle clothes.

"Oops, what did I see, why did our little birthday star run out barefoot!" At this time, Cui'er happened to hear a movement in the house, and when she walked out of the kitchen, she saw her hair scattered. A big girl who ran out with bare white and tender little feet.

"Come, our little birthday star can't catch a cold, if the ice is so cold that your feet are upset, you won't be able to eat today's delicious food!" Cui'er stretched out her hand and hugged the big girl.

"Oops. The chubby chick is so heavy! Cui'er kissed the big girl the cheek, and then carried her to the Westroom. The eldest girl has been raised by Cui'er for more than a year, and she is no longer the appearance of the yellow-haired skinny angry bag before.

"Giggle......" The big girl laughed non-stop in Cui'er's arms, obviously very fond of Cui'er's intimacy, and was put on the edge of the kang by Cui'er, and refused to let go, she hooked Cui'er's neck. He also kissed Cui'er on the face, and then giggled and climbed onto the kang.

"Don't climb under the covers, I'll get you a towel to wipe your feet. Look at your little soles, you can catch up with the charcoal seller! Cui'er stretched out her hand and squeaked the big girl, and the little tiger who woke up on the side also joined the battle, until the big girl's squeaky little face was red, and she couldn't breathe when she laughed, so Cui'er stopped.

"The clothes of both of you are on the kang. Wash your face well, and then my mother will come and comb your hair! Cui'er smiled and wrung the veil with warm water. wiped the little feet clean for the eldest girl, and then instructed the two children. "Move fast, or the friends will arrive later, you haven't dressed yet!"

"Good!" The big girl is a neat little girl, and after she finished passing the clothes quickly, she helped Xiaohu to put the clothes neatly and neatly, folded the quilt and put it on the kang head, and waited for Xiangmo to come back later, and put it in the kang cabinet.

After the girl washed her face, she threw a towel in the basin, wrung it clean and helped Xiaohu wipe her face, and took a water bowl to rinse her mouth.

"Mother, this dress is so beautiful!" The clothes on the big girl were made for them by Cui'er at the beginning of spring, the pink and green material, especially the lining of the face, made the girl and Xiaohu, who were already a lot whiter, look more white and pink.

"It's good if the girl likes it, wait a while, my father and mother still have birthday gifts to give to the girl!" Cui'er smiled and helped the big girl comb her hair, and her hair, which was a little messy because of a night's sleep, gradually became obedient under Cui'er's gentle hands.

Touching the girl's black hair after being combed, Cui'er's mood is very comfortable, for more than a year, watching the two children from skinny and pitiful, little by little to plump and white, Cui'er's heart is indescribably proud.

"Okay, the girl's hair is combed!" Cui'er combed two bags of buns for the big girl, the jet-black hair was wrapped very tightly with a pink and green hairband, and there were two flowers bought from the town, which made the already pink and lovely girl look even more cute.

"Our big girl will be nine years old today, and she is a big girl!" Watching the big girl start to draw taller, Cui'er has a sense of pride in my family's daughter's growth.

"Mother, and Xiaohu!" Xiaohu hurriedly crawled to Cui'er, waving his little hands and calling!

"Yes, and Xiaohu!" Cui'er smiled and combed Xiaohu's hair, Xiaohu is a boy, naturally it is not good to use hair flowers or anything, but in order to make Xiaohu's dress more festive and lively, Cui'er wrapped the pigtail on Xiaohu's head with a large circle of red rope, and dressed Xiaohu as if he was a fairy child on the New Year's painting.

After packing up the two children, Cui'er asked the two of them to clean up for breakfast, and then went to the East House to feed Xiaobao and Soft.

By the time Cui'er finished feeding, Xiangmo had already made breakfast, and after serving it to the table with her hands and feet, she served her and Uncle Zhong's meals again and went to the old courtyard.

Since he brought Xiangmo and Uncle Zhong home, although Lian Qingshan didn't say anything, she was very cold to Cui'er's young girl, as if she was not happy with the many outsiders in her house, and she usually refused to talk to Xiangmo, and more often, she carried a hoe to the yard to plant vegetables.

After Cui'er's family finished breakfast, there were guests outside, the first to arrive was the Qian family's Yugui, Mrs. Qian brought Yugui and Zheng Langzhong's youngest son to come over, the two children were dressed in small robes, combed their hair in a small bun, looked like a little adult, very fun.

"Sister girl, this is a birthday gift for you!" Yugui took out a small box from the carriage decently and handed it to the big girl in a dignified manner.

"Thank you, Brother Yugui!" The big girl also took the box like a little adult, and thanked her seriously.

If you don't know the inside story, you still think that these two children were raised by an old pedant in which family, and the etiquette is so complete.

"Sister girl, this is my gift to you!" Zheng Hebai, the son of Zheng Langzhong's family, also handed over a box with a warm smile on his face.

"Thank you, Brother Tsurubai!" The big girl still thanked her, and a blush appeared on her white little face.

Let Mrs. Qian and her party go to the house, someone came outside, and the children in the village arrived at Lian's house with their children, and they were all familiar with each other on weekdays, but they got together but it was quiet for a while, and the whole house began to be lively.

The children's minds are simple, and the gifts they give are not so much to say, Qian Yugui gave the girl a set of clay figurines, a total of twelve, each only the size of an adult's thumb, but the clothes and headdresses on the clay figurines are very meticulous and beautiful.

Zheng Hebai sent the big girl is a set of nine rings, the solution of one ring and one ring is a little complicated, when the children play, Zheng Hebai is older, and his mind is more transparent than others, don't look at the age, playing nine links is very familiar with playing, which provokes the children's admiration.

And the children in the village sent all kinds of things, Xiao Yam gave the big girl a slingshot, the black girl who played well with the big girl gave the big girl a purse sewn by herself, and the granddaughter of the village chief's family who came with her gave a handkerchief...... In short, before the meal, the little birthday girl received the gift softly!

Cui'er stewed the hard dishes that should be stewed, and the ones that should be fried were fried, and the last two stir-fried dishes were missing, seeing that the time was almost up, and the children who should have come were also here, so she smiled and said to the children, "It's not too early, let's start dinner!" ”

"Okay, let's eat!" The big girl nodded with a smile, and took her friends to start cleaning up the table, moving the melon seeds and snacks on the table, looking forward to the delicious vegetables on the table.

Braised pork, fried meat and croquettes that children like are indispensable, Cuier also made a stall eggs, fancy fried vegetables and a lot of color, flavor and flavor, and full of childlike dishes.

Of course, the most coveted thing for the children is the rainbow cake that was served by Cui'er at the end. The cake with an attractive aroma and bright and beautiful colors will make children look at it intently!

"Mother, what is this?" The big girl shouted in surprise, her mother will make a lot of delicious food, but it is the first time she has seen such a beautiful snack.

"This is a rainbow cake, which my mother made specially for the girl's birthday! Big girl likes it or not! Cui'er looked at the surprise of the big girl, and only felt that even if it took so much effort to make this cake, it was worth it.

"There are all kinds of dishes and meals, you children eat more, we adults, eat in the East House, and we won't make any noise to you!" Cui'er smiled and left the place to the children, looking at their lively atmosphere in an instant, she smiled dumbly, her identity as an adult, even if she is amiable, there is a generation gap with the children!

That night, after the friends dispersed, the big girl lay on the kang and looked at the stars outside, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, "Mother, don't worry, my mother is good to me and Xiaohu, the big girl is very happy, and the big girl will live well." (To be continued)
