「…… I think, green leafy vegetables like you, I can eat them for a lifetime......" Song Mingqian said awkwardly.

"Phew! Who is rare!" Ping Qiong rolled her eyes, finished her last bite of the fruit platter, and then began to eat the braised pork.

Xia Yuanfang watched them eat so devotedly, pursed his lips and smiled.

She said gently, "Thank you for helping me take care of Hatsumi, she's young, she doesn't know anything, and she's not a genetic evolutionary. I know that without your care, she would not have survived these three years."

Xia Chujian nodded again and again: "Auntie is right! In the beginning, I wasn't that good! Thanks to Team Ye, Binding Master, Sister Cai, and Life-Giving Money for repeated rescues! - Thank you for your kindness, come, I toast you with a glass of wine!"

Xia Hatsumi took the opportunity to pour himself a glass of red wine and held it up to try it.

Xia Yuanfang gently but firmly took the wine glass from her hand, smiled and said, "You are not old enough to drink. - Come, I'll see you for the first time on behalf of our family, and I would like to give you a drink!"

The four teammates stood up, raised their glasses together, and drank with Xia Yuanfang.

After drinking a glass of red wine, Li Jian said with a smile: "Xiao Chujian was actually very powerful and humble from the beginning! Be humble!"

This is in response to Natsu Hatsumi's boastful sentence "At the beginning, I was really not that good".

The others laughed.

Xia Chu didn't hear it, and said with a smile: "Low-key, low-key, I am indeed powerful among ordinary people. But it's not comparable to genetic evolutionaries......

At this point, Song Mingqian said regretfully: "Seriously, it would be nice if genes could evolve at first sight......

But that's all there is to it.

To say too much is to stick a knife in people's hearts.

Suddenly, Ping Qiong shouted, "Today is my first birthday, right?!"

"Oops, happy birthday!"

"Happy Birthday!"

"Happy Birthday!"

"Happy Birthday!"

Four of her teammates raised their glasses to her.

Xia Chujian blinked, and then realized that her teammates were actually looking for an excuse to celebrate her birthday!

No wonder they all brought such valuable gifts!

And his cheap boss never said anything, and he sent so much money, most of it was because of his birthday, right?

Since her aunt got sick, no one has celebrated her birthday......

Of course, she has been hiding from her teammates and not telling them how old she is.

It wasn't until this year that they found out her real age.

Xia Yuanfang was also a little surprised, and said with a smile, "You guys really have a heart, I guess you suddenly came over, it should be because of this reason. Come, I've made a birthday cake for everyone to eat."

With that, Xia Yuanfang went to the kitchen and took out the birthday cake she had secretly baked.

The birthday cake was served in a delicate black porcelain goblet with a deep cylinder lid.

When the lid was lifted, the eyes of those present widened and they could barely breathe.

Is that a birthday cake?

No, it's a huge and magnificent landscape painting!

The bottom of the entire cake is covered with snow.

The mountains are full of brilliant flowers, and colorful beasts are running in the mountains and flying in the clouds.

The river meanders down the outer layer of the cake embryo like a dragon.

"It's beautiful! This kind of cake is unheard of! I've never seen anything like I've seen before!"

"I'm going to take a picture and post it on the Star Network!" Song Mingqian immediately showed his quantum light brain.

Xia Yuanfang gently but firmly stopped him: "No need, this is specially prepared for the first time, I don't want to be learned by others."

actually Xia Yuanfang said so, and Song Mingqian didn't take pictures.

He shook his head regretfully and said, "There is not even a trace of such a beautiful work of art...... Tyrannical Creatures...... Destroy the heavens......

Xia Yuanfang put a dinner knife

Hand it to Xia Chujian: "Come, cut it and share it with everyone."

Xia Chujian felt that Bei'er had face, and tried to maintain the light breeze of "no big deal", but he couldn't hide the pride and pride.

She took the knife, took the knife in her hand, and divided the birthday cake, which was as beautiful as a myth and legend, into six equal portions, and put it on the same black porcelain plate.

Ping Qiong couldn't wait, and among the six cake plates, she saw a piece of cake with a red bird, and said, "Is this red bird made of morning glow fruit? I love it!"

Xia Yuanfang nodded: "It's the morning glow fruit."

Xia Chujian gave the plate of cake to Pingqiong.

Ye Shijie, Song Mingqian and Li Jian didn't need her to do it, they took a plate by themselves and began to taste it.

Turning his head again, there were only two plates left on the table, one belonged to Xia Chujian, and the other belonged to Xia Yuanfang.

Xia Yuanfang pushed the plate of cake with the complete pattern of the other side flower to the beginning of the summer meeting, and said softly, "This piece is for you."

Because there were flowers on it, the teammates were very interested and didn't ask for the plate.

Xia Chujian took it with a smile, dug it down with a spoon, and ate all the flowers on the other side in one bite.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her mouth made a "hmm" sound, very satisfied.

"Auntie, this flower is still made of red glutinous rice, right? - It's so delicious! I can't get tired of eating it no matter how many times I eat it!"

Xia Yuanfang smiled: "The last bit of red glutinous rice at home, I don't want to eat it anymore."

「…… Without? Red glutinous rice is really rare, and I haven't seen it sold in the supermarket." Song Mingqian muttered to himself, chewing and swallowing slowly, just thinking about the delicacy and staying in his mouth for a while.

Xia Chujian thought to herself, she had never seen red glutinous rice in the Star Net supermarket, but since she could remember, every year on her birthday, her aunt would use red glutinous rice to make food for her.

I don't know where I got it.

And the taste of this red glutinous rice can really only be described as melt-in-the-mouth, with a slight sweetness, and when you eat it, you will feel ironed all over your limbs.

The warmth and softness that came down from my throat made me get drunk after taking a bite, it was really the same as wine.

Xia Chujian has never drunk alcohol, but she thinks that the best wine is just the taste of red glutinous rice.

After eating a plate of cakes, she was "drunk" on the table.

Looking at Xia Chujian, who was snorting carefully and had fallen asleep, Xia Yuanfang couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Don't see each other, we were dizzy when we first met."

"Sickness?"

"Well, she can't eat too many sweets, and if she eats a little more, she'll get "sick of sugar." Xia Yuanfang said, trying to help Xia Chujian up.

But Xia Chu saw a height of 1.75 meters, and it was not the kind of sick Xi Shi who was so thin that he was weak and weak, Xia Yuanfang was recovering from a serious illness, and he didn't help her up all of a sudden.

Ping Qiong hurriedly took a hand.

Her strength was much greater than that of Xia Yuanfang, and she directly hugged Xia Chujian and sent her into her bedroom.

Ping Qiong had seen Xia Chujian's new bedroom from a 3D holographic projection video call.

She familiarly put Xia Chujian on the bed.

Xia Yuanfang followed and walked in and helped her cover the quilt.

Then the two of them tiptoed out and closed the door gently.

After going out, Xia Yuanfang saw that they liked to eat what she made so much, so he went to make two home-cooked snacks.

One is fried noodles and the other is three fresh bean skins.

These two things directly made the team members eat a lot, and they didn't stop eating until they were packed and taken away.

By the time they left, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.

It was all dark outside.

The four of them came out of the building where Xia Chujian's house was located and walked up the narrow path that only allowed one person to pass.

Although the external environment here is really poor, the situation in the building is not bad.

Li Jian said with emotion: "Xiao Chujian finally has a decent home."

The utility room on the first floor where she used to live, although they didn't go in, they saw each other outside

Many times.

Ye Shijie also said, "I didn't expect my aunt to be so ...... when I first met Graceful."

It's about the same as his father's colleagues he saw when he was a child, and even more bookish than those university professors who are well-educated.

Her eyes seem to contain infinite wisdom, but they are not overbearing.

This point was not even comparable to his father's former boss, the famous university scholar in the whole empire.

Song Mingqian smiled: "Although Xiao Chujian is a scumbag, I think that with her aunt's guidance, Xiao Chujian will definitely be able to be admitted to university."

If it was before seeing Xia Yuanfang, Ping Qiong would definitely sneer at Song Mingqian's words, and then sneer at each other.

But now, she only nodded silently and said faintly, "...... If I had such an aunt, I would have been able to go to university."

"It's okay. You didn't get into college, and I don't dislike you." Song Mingqian said with a smile and rubbed her hair.

"Get out of here! Don't mess with the hairstyle that my lady just made today!" Ping Qiong glared at him and hurriedly brushed his hair with his hands.

The four of them walked out of the neighborhood and looked back at the backward and old neighborhood again.

Yip said, "...... Have you ever seen a little first time fainting sugar?"

"No, it's the first time I've heard of it."

"Me too, she was faint for hours."

After they left, Xia Yuanfang returned to the bedroom where Xia Chujian had seen and checked on her.

Xia Chujian slept soundly, and there were even beads of sweat on his forehead.

It wasn't hot in the room, but she kicked the covers away.

Xia Yuanfang silently covered her with a quilt.

In the darkness, she whispered, "...... yes, red glutinous rice, I've finally finished it......

In the eastern district of Mulan City, on the top floor of a skyscraper built with the latest building materials, a very spacious duplex villa-type high-end hardcover room.

Zong Ruoan wore a set of slim-fitting dress pants, a casual white shirt, and a herringbone vest, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Outside the window is a cold and biting winter night, and it is also a colorful world.

Zong Ruoan's eyes were not on the flashing neon lights on those high-rise buildings, but on a low-rise community.

There are lights there, too, but not as bright as the lights of the East End.

Zong Ruoan hesitated for a whole day, and finally sent a message to Xia Chujian when today was about to pass.

[Zong Ruoan]: See you for the first time in summer, happy birthday! Congratulations to the adults!

Then he transferred 88,888 Beichen coins to her as a birthday gift.

And addendum: This is your past and present coffee principal and tea money.

At the same time, in a mansion in the core area of Dafu County, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Mulan City, a group of people dressed luxuriously and covered in jewels were gathering together excitedly.

"Is there really a Blessing Master from the Bright Spirit Alliance?"

"Of course it's true! These two prayer takers have heard that they are particularly effective. My relatives in Beichen Emperor Star once told me that even in the imperial capital over there, it would be difficult to invite them to pray for blessings!"

The speaker is very proud.

"I heard that the Bright Spirit is a charity organization that is very difficult to join, not only to have a certain net worth, but also to have a certain social status!"

"And even if they joined, most of them were ordinary members. Only when you have accumulated a certain amount of merit can you be promoted to a leader."

"You have to make great achievements to become a prayer master!"

"Actually, above the blessing master, there is also a protector......

"Apologists are truly rare, and no one has ever seen them."

"It can't be said that the Fan family once met one, and they also asked him to do a Maha commandment, and since then, the Fan family, who has always lost money in business, has never lost money......

"Yes, yes! I've heard about it too! The generation of the old lady of the Fan family, who is about to lose all their family property in business, is really doing one line and destroying one line, which can be called the dark light of the industry!"

"But since the head of the Fan family, please

When the protectors of the Light Spirit Alliance made the Maha Commandment to the newly built commercial building, the Fan family became a stone in the business field! ——Fan's clothing began to sell well in the entire Guiyuan Star from that time!"

"Now it's not just the best-selling Guiyuan Star, I heard that they have all entered the market of Zangge Star......

"Zang Ge Xing?! Isn't that the planet where Kwon's Mining is located?! - The Fan family is also related to the Quan family?!"

The person who spoke could no longer hide the extreme envy and a little jealousy in his tone.

Although the hall area of the mansion is large, because there are too many people coming, the entire hall is crowded.

Although they lowered their voices one by one to speak, they couldn't stand the crowd, so there was a buzzing sound everywhere.

Fan Chengcai was wearing a tall white dress in the style of a uniform, standing in the circular corridor on the second floor with his eldest brother Fan Chengqi, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, looking at the bustle in the hall on the first floor, and a trace of madness was well hidden on his reserved face.

"Big brother, I just received the news that our other courtyard over there in Mulan City has been raided by the Special Security Bureau." Fan Chengcai whispered, with a hint of uneasiness and fear on his face.

Fan Chengqi snorted lightly, and his smile was slightly hideous: "I already knew."

"If you don't know. Let's talk about raids...... Who is afraid...... It's a courtyard, and there's nothing important."

"You wait, after the New Year, I'm going to call the Special Security Bureau, take what they eat, and spit it out!"

Fan Chengqi did not take this operation of the Special Security Bureau to heart at all.

Fan Chengcai was relieved to see that his eldest brother was not the right thing.

He asked instead, "Big brother, have you invited a few blessing masters from the Light Spirit Alliance today?"

Fan Chengqi had a reverent smile on his face: "Luckily, this time I invited two of you. It is said that this year's blessings will arrive relatively early, and it will not be necessary until the New Year, after December 24th, the blessings will come. Now we will go to the prayer master and receive the blessing."
