The daughter was handed over to her parents, and Li Manjun and Zhao Yong went to the town store to find Li Lijun together.

Li Jianjun rushed to follow, got an electronic watch, and his brother-in-law was long and his brother-in-law was short, so he became Zhao Yong and a fart.

The couple mainly came to the town to get the birthday cake that was set in advance, and today is not only the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, but also the birthday of every year.

The No. 29 cake chef stopped doing it, and sent it to Wang Xiaojuan's shop before going to the countryside early in the morning, and put it in the store.

The cake was made yesterday, and the weather is cold and not afraid to put it, and the cake at this time is not made of cream, it is a kind of table flower sugar, which is not afraid of melting.

I just don't know if it's delicious or not.

However, such a "luxurious" birthday cake cannot be eaten once a year, so it is delicious.

At the end of the year, Wang Xiaojuan's business in the store is very good, the street is full of villagers who come to buy New Year's goods, Li Lijun can't be busy at all, collect money here and get the goods there, if it weren't for Aunt Wu's help, the guests would have to leave after waiting for a long time.

When the sisters met, they didn't have time to say anything, Li Lijun gave a look, handed over the wallet, and asked her sister to help settle the bill and find the money, and Zhao Yong and Li Jianjun went to help move the goods.

Last year, the business of selling New Year's goods was good, and Wang Xiaojuan got all the New Year's goods to the store half a month in advance this year, from the twentieth of the twentieth month of the lunar month to the twenty-ninth of the year.

This year, I want to go to the countryside for the New Year, and I will come back to open the door on the third day of the new year.

Almost all the shops in the town of Heather open and close their doors at this time, because today is the last day, and the people on the street are especially hot.

Li Manjun took the wallet, asked about the prices of various items, and quickly got started, responsible for cashier change.

The four of them were busy for half an hour, and the number of guests gradually decreased.

Li Lijun finally got free and hurriedly asked, "Sister, what about every year?" ”

"At home, let's get the cake." Li Manjun picked up the broom by the wall and swept out the garbage at the door, and Aunt Wu was already closing the stall and preparing to go home.

"If you come, then I'll go back, I'll wait for me to cook at home, this year your sister and brother-in-law will come to the house for the New Year, and I'll be there tomorrow morning, if you have to come and sit free." Aunt Wu invited.

Li Manjun said okay, he will definitely go when the time comes, help Aunt Wu clean up the stall, see her go back, turn around and go back to the store, Wang Xiaojuan's New Year's goods have been sold almost.

"There's no one on the street anymore, so let's close the door and go back together." Li Manjun said to his younger siblings.

The sister and brother couldn't ask for it, knowing that the eldest sister was the only person in the family who could resist the authority of their parents, and moved very quickly to bring in the shelves and planks outside the store.

Before closing, he sold a box of pears, and when someone came later, Li Jianjun said directly to others: "It's closed, it's out of stock, you can go to another house." ”

Zhao Yong tapped his brother-in-law's head, Li Jianjun smiled, and shrunk his neck weakly, "Brother-in-law, you can't tell my mother that I told the guest like this." ”

Li Manjun heard the movement, turned his head and asked, "What bad things can't you tell your mother?" ”

The two men shook their heads in unison and said, "Nothing." ”

Li Manjun looked at Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong shook his head lightly and said that it was a trivial matter, and Li Manjun let his younger brother go.

Closing the door, grabbing the birthday cake, the four siblings walked briskly home.

Li Jianjun and Li Lijun rushed to the front, turning back from time to time and shouting to their sister and brother-in-law who were walking leisurely: "Hurry up!" ”

Li Manjun can't go fast, and he doesn't want to go fast, he hasn't been back to the town for a long time, the town has changed a lot, the original community welfare housing is very deserted, and now there are a few more houses on both sides of the road, which is obviously more lively than before.

Calling out to my sister, Li Lijun's sister and brother took the first step, trotted all the way home, and when they saw Nian Nian, they immediately surrounded them.

I haven't seen my aunt and uncle for a long time, and I don't know the two very well every year, and my big eyes are looking for my grandfather everywhere, and I am a little afraid of the enthusiastic sister and brother in front of me.

Li Dawei, who was sitting next to his granddaughter, immediately stretched out his hand, grabbed his grandfather's hand every year, and staggered to his feet, causing Li Lijun's sister and brother to scream in surprise.

"I can walk every year!"

"Li Lijun, don't be scared of Nian Nian, speak quietly." Wang Xiaojuan roared in the kitchen.

The sisters and brothers shrugged their shoulders in unison, slowed down their movements, squatted in front of Nian Nian and looked at her, and they didn't get closer, they just watched, and they just felt that everything she did was cute.

People are small, hands are small, and feet are small.

In the evening, Wang Xiaojuan cooked a large table of sumptuous dishes, and Li Manjun was moved but not angry.

There are so many dishes, I definitely can't finish it, and I have to go to my hometown tomorrow, and no one at home will eat it, so I can only throw it out.

But Wang Xiaojuan is only afraid that she will treat her granddaughter badly, and no one can stop her from being willing to do so much.

"This is our first birthday every year, and we must commemorate it." Wang Xiaojuan looked at Zhao Yong, "Xiaoyong, did you bring a camera?" ”

Zhao Yong nodded.

"Then let's take a picture together as a family." Wang Xiaojuan said with great interest.

Zhao Yong said okay and got up to get the camera.

Li Dawei hugged Nian Nian, and Li Lijun took out a birthday hat and brought it to her.

Li Manjun and Li Jianjun put candles on the cake and lit it.

Zhao Yong took out the camera, fixed it in front of the table with a stand, pressed the timer shutter, and ran over quickly, standing behind his wife.

A burst of white light flashed, and the photo was taken, and Nian Nian clapped her little hands excitedly, and the birthday hat on her head was a little big, crookedly hooked on her little tug.

The three sisters and brothers of the Li family never ate a birthday cake when they were children.

When it came to cutting the cake, the whole family was looking forward to it, Li Manjun held his daughter who always wanted to reach out to grab the cake flowers, and instructed Zhao Yong to cut the cake.

"Let's get the candles out first, we have a total of six adults, and the cake is not big, just one big piece per person, just cut six pieces."

Nian Nian is a baby who knows good things, smells the aroma of cakes, keeps swallowing saliva, and reaches out to grab his mother's arm to eat.

Zhao Yong took a fork and scooped a piece for her, and fed the little birthday star a bite first.

The first time she ate the cake, Nian Nian's expression was very interesting, she frowned slightly, tasted the sweetness, her eyebrows opened instantly, her eyes were shining, smash it, smash it, smash it, smash it, "ah" opened her mouth wide, and she wanted to.

didn't dare to give her more of these colored table flowers, Zhao Yong picked the cake embryo inside and gave his daughter a small bite.

Nian Nian was so happy that he clapped his hands, kicked his calves hard, and jumped up in his mother's arms, amusing the whole family.

When he returned to his father-in-law's house this year, Zhao Yong could sleep in a room with his wife and children.

The main reason is that the weather is cold now, and we have to set off together tomorrow, and it is very troublesome to arrange who to go back to the old house to sleep.

The room over there has been uninhabited for a long time, the walls have fallen off, and the home that no one takes care of is quickly decaying.

When Li Manjun came, she also brought her daughter's little quilt over, afraid that she would recognize the bed, but she didn't expect the little girl to sleep soundly and not cry at all.

Zhao Yong sighed: "I should have lived here before, so she still remembers." ”
