When everyone had eaten about 80% of their fill, Min Yueqing asked Amei to bring out the cake.

Upon seeing the cake, Pei Ji immediately lost her appetite and obediently sat down to wait for her turn to eat.

The first piece of cake today was given to the birthday boy, Pei Ji. However, Pei Ji did not start eating immediately. Instead, he waited until Min Yueqing and Pei Han had received theirs before he began to eat the cake.

Pei Ji said happily, "Mommy, the cake is still so delicious!"

"Mmm, eat slowly, there's plenty more here."

Min Yueqing is also a dessert lover, and she is quite satisfied with her cake-making skills.

Stone quickly finished the cake in his hand, his mouth full of sweetness, and his eyes seemed to be glued to the cake plate again.

Min Yueqing smiled and said to Amei, "Let's put another stone in, a bigger one."

Stone said happily, "Thank you, Master. Thank you, Sister Amei."

Everyone ate quite a bit during the meal; even Pei Han ate two pieces of cake.

However, in the dead of winter, the north wind howls outside as soon as night falls, so taking a walk is out of the question; going out would be nothing short of asking for trouble.

Min Yueqing then asked Amei to brew a pot of hawthorn tea. Hawthorn tea has the effect of aiding digestion and strengthening the stomach, which is perfect for drinking now.

After the tea was brewed, everyone drank a cup before returning to their rooms.

After returning to the bedroom, Min Yueqing asked Pei Ji to sit on the couch, and then went in and brought out a beautiful wooden box, placing it on the small table in front of Pei Ji.

"Open it and take a look."

Pei Ji blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion, "Mother, what is this?"

Min Yueqing smiled and said, "Don't you want to open the birthday gift your mother gave you?"

Pei Ji immediately burst into laughter, exclaiming "Wow!" and then said joyfully, "So there are other birthday gifts besides the cake!"

This time, Pei Ji did not hesitate and reached out to open the box.

Pei Han was also curious about what Min Yueqing would give, so he leaned forward and looked into the box with Pei Ji.

Inside the box were many oddly shaped small wooden blocks, which were arranged rather haphazardly due to their varied shapes.

Pei Han's curiosity grew even stronger. He had a feeling that the wooden blocks Min Yueqing had given him must have a unique way of being played with them, but he couldn't figure it out for the time being.

Pei Ji was much simpler. He said to Min Yueqing, "Mother, although these wooden blocks are a bit strangely shaped, they are quite pretty."

Min Yueqing couldn't help but chuckle. She sat down next to the little one, casually picked up some wooden blocks, fiddled with them for a bit, and quickly built a simple house.

Pei Ji's eyes widened instantly. He looked at the small house on the table in surprise, then turned back to look at Min Yueqing.

Min Yueqing chuckled and asked, "How was it? Was it fun?"

Pei Ji excitedly hugged Min Yueqing's arm, saying repeatedly, "It's so much fun! It's really interesting! Mother, can we build other things with these little wooden blocks?"

Min Yueqing looked at her little one approvingly, "Of course! Its name is building blocks. Try building more with it. If you can use them all, you might be pleasantly surprised!"

Pei Ji couldn't help but exclaim "Wow!" again, her big eyes sparkling with excitement, clearly her enthusiasm had been fully aroused.

It has to be said that Pei Han was even a little jealous of his own son.

Looking at the beaming, adorable little boy in her arms, Min Yueqing couldn't help but kiss each of his dimples, saying sincerely, "I hope my Lele will always be safe, happy, and joyful, and always like this."

Pei Ji was both happy and shy. He knelt up awkwardly, first giving Min Yueqing a quick kiss on the left cheek, and then giving her a soft kiss on the right cheek as well.

After the kiss, Pei Ji buried her slightly flushed face in Min Yueqing's neck.

Unsurprisingly, Min Yueqing's heart melted once again, and she held her little one tightly in her arms.

Not to be outdone, Xiao Wei joined in, placing its two increasingly strong front paws on Min Yueqing's legs, while its fluffy head nestled against Pei Ji's body in Min Yueqing's embrace.

Pei Ji was already dressed warmly, so he didn't feel anything amiss.

Only his neck and cheeks were itchy from being rubbed by Wei's fur, which made him giggle.

Pei Ji raised his head, both angry and amused, only to find Xiao Wei's big head right next to his face.

He knew Wei very well, so he wasn't scared. He just whispered, "Wei, you're too close. Your fur is brushing against my face!"

Min Yueqing couldn't help but laugh, reaching out to ruffle Xiao Wei's handsome head twice, teasingly saying, "Look, your brother is angry because you've been rubbing against him, what are we going to do?"

Regardless, Xiao Wei firmly pressed the tiger's head against Min Yueqing's chest.

Seeing that Xiao Wei didn't move, Pei Ji took the opportunity to place his own restless little hand on the back of its head.

Surprisingly, Serena Williams didn't dodge this time.

Pei Ji whispered happily to Min Yueqing, "Mother, Xiao Wei didn't hide this time!"

"Yes, it seems that Wei has grown up and knows that you like it."

Min Yueqing thought to herself: This "youngest son" is becoming increasingly tolerant of others in order to win favor. This is only true for Pei Ji; others probably don't enjoy this treatment.

Since he had such a rare opportunity, Pei Ji took the chance to pat Xiao Wei's head all he wanted, but he was very gentle because he was afraid of making Xiao Wei uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Pei Han asked with a heavy heart, "Madam, do you think I can successfully touch the little one in the house?"

Min Yueqing couldn't help but chuckle, and when she saw Pei Han's expression, she wanted to laugh even more.

Fortunately, Min Yueqing managed to control her expression. Moreover, she realized that it was indeed unfair to Pei Han. To be fair, he was a very competent father.

Min Yueqing, who has two adorable children, naturally doesn't mind sharing some of her happiness with Pei Han. She extends one of her still-mobile hands to Pei Han in a gesture of embrace.

Pei Han immediately received this signal, stepped forward and hugged Min Yueqing, thus simultaneously holding both of his "good sons" in his arms.

Pei Han first leaned down and buried his face in Min Yueqing's shoulder, taking a deep breath. In an instant, the elegant fragrance of his wife, the milky scent of his son, and the undeniable aroma of Xiao Wei all filled his nostrils. Pei Han sighed contentedly.

Min Yueqing seemed to sense a hint of emotion in Pei Han's expression. She took Pei Han's hand and guided it to Xiao Wei's body.

Serena Williams turned her head and glanced at him sensitively.

Min Yueqing had anticipated this, so she didn't move her hand away, but continued to cover Pei Han's hand with her own, with her two hands overlapping.

Upon seeing Min Yueqing's hand, Xiao Wei's fierce gaze softened instantly.

Although there was another large hand beneath Min Yueqing's hand that made it particularly uncomfortable, it chose to turn a blind eye for Min Yueqing's sake.
