Mr. Su’s fiftieth birthday was a very enjoyable one.
The food and drinks on the table made him proud.
Especially when everyone talked about Su's father's children, they were full of envy.
Su's father had three sons and one daughter. Su Mu was outstanding and talented. He joined a newspaper as editor-in-chief at a young age.
After Su Fang got married, he started his own business and founded Shuxin Employment Agency, which provided convenience for people in the village looking for jobs. He has a bright future!
After Su Miantang got married, she worked as a translator and took the college entrance examination. If she passed, she would become a college student!
The guests praised them generously, saying, "These three children will surely have a bright future and bring honor to our family!"
Hearing such praise, Father Su smiled from ear to ear, his heart filled with pride.
However, these words made Su's elder brother and his family sitting nearby seem a little embarrassed.
They looked at each other, their smiles stiff and forced.
After all, in comparison, their children are not that outstanding.
However, Ge Qin didn't care about all this at all.
Since the family split decades ago, she and her husband have been living diligently and have never owed the eldest wife a penny.
On the contrary, when my parents-in-law were alive, they subsidized the eldest wife in every way, even to the point where it was unbearable.
Now, it is finally her family's turn to be proud, so she naturally wants to enjoy this moment.
Looking at the Su family, Su Miantang was surrounded by her two sisters-in-law. On the left was the gentle and virtuous eldest sister-in-law, and on the right was the lively and cheerful second sister-in-law. They both cared for her and asked about her well-being.
People who don’t know the situation would think that they are three sisters who are as close as siblings when seeing this scene!
At this time, Su Miantang’s good sister Song Yue was not so lucky.
Ge Qin forcibly dragged her to the table with the elders. Facing a group of serious old people, Song Yue felt uncomfortable and uneasy.
She secretly complained in her heart. If she had a choice, she would rather sit at her good friend Su Miantang's table. At least the atmosphere there was much more relaxed and cheerful!
"Mother-in-law, I'm so sorry. My precious daughter has been spoiled by us since she was little. Sometimes she might be a little willful and ignorant. I hope you can be more tolerant and bear with her in the future."
"Oh, mother-in-law, look at what you are saying! How can it be so serious? Our third daughter-in-law is so filial, I like her so much!"
Song Yue quickly responded with a smile, her words full of love for her daughter-in-law.
As she spoke, she raised her glass to toast her mother-in-law and took a small sip of the wine in the glass.
I originally just wanted to taste it to see how it tasted, but I never expected that the wine would be unexpectedly fragrant and delicious once I took a sip.
On the other side, Jiang Yang, seeing that his mother had already drunk a glass of wine, quickly said:
"Mom, please drink less. Getting drunk is bad for your health."
After saying this, he cleverly changed the subject, raised his glass respectfully to his father-in-law and said:
"Father-in-law, today is your birthday. I wish you good fortune like the long flowing water of the East China Sea and a long life like the evergreen pines of the Southern Mountains!
May you be in good health and blessed with great fortune!"
"Hahahahahaha, great, great! My dear son-in-law, you are so thoughtful!"
When Mr. Su heard his son-in-law's sincere blessings, he couldn't help but laugh and responded happily.
As the resounding birthday congratulations rang out, the other two sons of the Su family—
Su Mu and Su Fang also stood up and began to toast their father in turn. For a moment, the whole scene was lively and full of laughter.
Look at the little trumpet owl, nestled obediently in the warm embrace of her aunt.
Two chubby little hands tightly grasped a large, shiny chicken drumstick. The little mouth kept chewing it, eating with relish. A satisfied smile was on his face, and he mumbled incoherently:
“It’s delicious…it’s delicious…
It would be great if Grandpa could have a birthday every day!"
After hearing her son's mumbling, Lin Qingxue was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She tapped her son's head and said, "You wish!"
What kind of family conditions can afford to let a son eat chicken legs every day?
You little bastard, you're just daydreaming.
......
Time flies, and soon it is time for the college entrance examination results to be announced.
After Su Miantang finished the manuscript, he set out for the county town.
Along the way, she was full of anticipation and curiosity, because not only did she have to submit her manuscript today, but she could also check the rankings.
When she arrived at the scene, she was stunned by the scene before her.
There was already a huge crowd of people there, shoulder to shoulder, and it was extremely lively.
The police officers on duty linked hands and formed a solid human wall, trying to maintain order at the scene.
However, as the crowd was too dense, Su Miantang did not rush forward to join in the fun, but decided to go to the county department store first.
After entering the department store, she first went to the fabric area and after careful selection, she bought five or six pieces of fabric that had slight flaws but were still usable.
Then, through connections among acquaintances, she successfully purchased two boxes of high-quality wine.
Then, she walked into the pastry shop and was instantly attracted by the dazzling array of pastries:
The sweet and delicious honey waterless cake exudes an enticing aroma; the golden and crispy egg yolk pastry is mouth-watering; the refreshing mung bean cake and the soft, glutinous and sweet red date cake are even more irresistible.
What surprised her even more was that no pastry tickets were required to buy pastries here, and although the prices were slightly higher than those at the supply and marketing cooperative, they were only about 30% higher.
In this way, whether you leave these delicious pastries for your good sisters to enjoy slowly, or give them to others as gifts, it is a very decent and presentable choice.
After leaving the pastry shop contentedly, Su Miantang discovered that there was a candy store not far away.
Now that we're here, let's go in and take a look!
After more than ten minutes of selection, she had another great harvest, with two more bags of candy and snacks in her hands.
In this way, she wandered around the department store and before she knew it, a long time had passed.
When she finally walked out of the building, the many items she had originally carried were reduced to only two large bags filled with pastries.
One bag is filled with delicious and crispy walnut cookies, while the other bag is filled with crunchy and delicious peanut cookies.
I glanced at the time on the watch on my wrist. At this time, the crowd should have dispersed, right?
Let's go and take a look...
