Chapter 389 Birthday Surprise
When school is over, the noodle shop's business reaches a peak again.
Yu Lixin, Yu Jianshe and Gu Dong also arrived at the noodle shop. Qian Lan packed some beef and shredded meat for Yu Lixin and Yu Jianshe and asked them to take it back to eat with their rice.
She steamed two bowls of rice in the morning and kept them warm in the pot with the remaining charcoal, so the rice would be hot for them to eat when they returned.
They haven't had lunch at the noodle shop for a few days. No matter how delicious the noodles are, they will get tired of them if they eat them every day.
The three of them helped in the noodle shop and washed a basin of dishes before going back.
It was almost time and a few people started lining up.
Yu Hui turned around to grab some noodles, but found that they were almost sold out, with only seven or eight portions left, and the chips were almost gone.
It was originally the quantity for one day, but it was sold out in one afternoon.
"Sister Qian, it seems we don't need to open the door tonight." Yu Hui said to Qian Lan with a smile.
"That's great." Qian Lan said with a smile, "However, it seems that our business has picked up. I'm afraid we'll have to stock up on more ingredients in the future."
Because people don’t like to eat noodles in the cold winter, business is a little slow, so they prepared less ingredients.
Now that business has picked up, we must prepare more so that there won’t be enough to sell.
After the last bowl of noodles was sold, whenever another customer came, Yu Hui would smile and say, "Come back tomorrow."
Yu Hui sat in front of the stove, waiting for the guests to finish their noodles and clean up before going home to eat.
Gu Hongmei works the night shift, so she cooks lunch in the house. She eats with the children first and leaves some for Yu Hui.
She went home to eat after get off work in the afternoon. Anyway, the latest she would get home from get off work was a little after two o'clock.
She gets tired of eating noodles every day.
"Aunt Yu, something bad has happened, something bad has happened." Yu Lixin shouted and ran into the noodle shop.
"What happened?" Yu Hui's heart was lifted.
Qian Lan also looked nervous. Yu Lixin gasped, "Something happened at your home. Please go back and take a look."
When Yu Hui heard this, she took off her sleeves without thinking and ran out of the noodle shop without even taking off her apron.
As soon as she left, Yu Lixin started laughing.
“Pah.”
Qian Lan hit him on the back of the head and angrily scolded him, "Something happened at your Aunt Yu's house, why are you so happy?"
This is something that needs to be seen by others and told to Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu will then think that he was the one who taught this kid to gloat over other people's misfortunes.
"Ouch." Yu Lixin rubbed the back of his head and grimaced in pain.
"I think you haven't been beaten for three days, and your thoughts are not right." Qian Lan said and raised the iron sand palm again.
"Mom, don't hit me, don't hit me." Yu Lixin quickly hid, "Nothing happened at Aunt Yu's house."
Nothing happened?
That's even more of a fight.
"You little bastard, you lied and made your Aunt Yu worried. I'm going to beat you up today." Qian Lan grabbed Yu Lixin's arm with one hand and hit his butt with the other.
"Oh, Uncle Gu asked me to trick Aunt Yu into going back. They have prepared a surprise for her." Yu Lixin shouted at the top of his voice.
Qian Lan paused as she spanked him. What?
"Tsk tsk, this Deputy Captain Gu is quite romantic. He even prepared a surprise for Xiaoyu on her birthday."
"Deputy Captain Gu has always been such a loving person towards his wife."
"However, I think that Deputy Captain Gu is more attentive to Xiao Yu than to Xiao Lin."
"That's right."
Is Xiaoyu’s birthday?
Qian Lan looked at the customers in the noodle shop and asked, "How did you know it was Xiaoyu's birthday?"
Even she doesn't know about this.
"Of course it was Deputy Head Gu who said that. He started to greet us one by one the day before yesterday and asked us to come for noodles today, and to come early. The noodles are sold out, so Xiao Yu can go home early to celebrate his birthday."
They all live in the same family compound. Gu Huai is an honest and enthusiastic person, and Xiao Yu is also a down-to-earth person. These noodles are really delicious, and they like to eat them. They are definitely willing to help with such a small favor.
Qian Lan suddenly understood. "I was wondering why there were so many more people here today than the day before yesterday. So this is what's going on."
Gu Huai is really thoughtful. Just think about it, when she celebrated her birthday on the 28th of the lunar year, she didn't even eat an egg. Yu Qiang didn't even remember it, let alone celebrate her birthday.
They are both men, why is there such a big difference between them?
What kind of person did I marry?
As for Yu Hui, she ran home in fear all the way.
When I opened the gate, there was no one in the yard and the door to the main room was closed.
"Hongmei, Nannan, Xixi..." She shouted anxiously as she ran up the stairs and pushed open the closed door.
"Happy birthday."
The colorful confetti fluttered down from above our heads, looking extremely beautiful.
Yu Hui froze, and when the colored paper fell to the ground from her sight, she saw Gu Huai in a green military uniform, holding Beibei and standing in front of her, smiling at her.
Gu Dong, Gu Nan, and Gu Xi stood next to Gu Huai, while Gu Hongmei and Yu Jianshe stood behind him.
There was a sumptuous meal on the eight-immortals table, and in the middle was a large decorated cream cake.
Gu Huai: "Happy birthday, Xiaohui."
The three Gudong brothers & Beibei: "Happy birthday, Mom."
Gu Hongmei: "Happy birthday, sister-in-law."
Yu Jianshe: "Happy birthday, Aunt Yu."
"Today is my birthday?" Yu Hui was still a little confused.
Gu Hongmei smiled and said, "Look, I told you that Fourth Sister-in-law herself doesn't even remember it."
"Fourth sister-in-law, today is your birthday, the eighth day of the second lunar month, which is the tenth day of the third lunar month. Even though you don't remember it, we remember it with you."
Gu Huai smiled guiltily. Actually, he didn't know either. It was Hongmei who told him.
Hongmei told him that Xiaohui's family had never celebrated her birthday since she was a child, so she had never celebrated her birthday properly.
After he knew about it, he wanted to give Xiaohui Zhengguo a birthday. In order to give her a surprise, he asked the whole family to keep it a secret from her and prepare it secretly when she was not at home.
Gu Huai raised his head after laughing, and saw that Yu Hui still had no expression on her face. His heart skipped a beat, thinking that she didn't like it. He quickly explained, "I'm sorry, Xiaohui, I wanted to give you a surprise, so I kept it a secret from you. I didn't expect you wouldn't like it..."
"like."
"……What?"
Yu Hui pulled up the corners of her mouth and showed a big smile, "I like it very much."
As the words fell, tears began to fall.
This was the first time that her family celebrated her birthday. It turns out that it really makes you feel happy when your family celebrates your birthday.
She felt an unprecedented warmth, a warmth that made her greedy.
She was undoubtedly happy, but tears fell uncontrollably.
Seeing her crying, everyone panicked.
If she likes it, why is she crying?
When the two little ones, Gu Xixi and Beibei, saw their mother crying, their mouths pursed and tears started falling from their eyes.
"Woo woo, don't cry, mommy..."
Gu Huai was even more at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Yu Hui raised her hand to wipe her tears, took two steps forward, wiped the tears from Beibei's little face with her fingers, smiled and cried, "Mommy is crying for joy."
Beibei opened his arms and asked his mother to hold him.
Yu Hui took Beibei from Gu Huai's arms, looked up at him and said softly, "Thank you."
