Chapter 305 Another Birthday
With this routine, more and more people are learning, and even older children like to go and listen together.
These sisters-in-law will not be taking the college entrance examination in the future, and they do not need to study like students. It is good enough for them to recognize words, read newspapers and write letters.
By October, the school was finally completed. It was built quite quickly. It was a simple two-story building with a total of six classrooms. The students' grades could be divided more finely, which was good for the students. However, there was a shortage of teachers.
The school's recruitment had nothing to do with Lin Xia. An An started going to school soon. Lu Yuxiu was on a mission again and it was unknown when he would be home. Lin Xia was at home with the three little ones and was not affected much.
Because school started late, An An and her classmates had a longer vacation, and they didn't have a vacation until just before the Chinese New Year. This year, Lu Yuxiu didn't get a leave to visit his family, and Lin Xia was mentally prepared for it, so she wasn't disappointed.
Lin's father and mother didn't have time to come this year. My second sister-in-law Wu Fangfang was pregnant again, and there were two or three children at home, so they really couldn't leave.
So this year, only the five of them celebrated the New Year. Except for her and Lu Yuxiu who missed Beijing a little, the other children didn't feel anything.
After the New Year of 1974, the two little ones would be three years old. Lin Xia calculated that there were only three years left before the college entrance examination was resumed.
By then, the two little ones will be in elementary school, so she can be free to do whatever she wants. However, she hasn't studied for so many years, so Lin Xia plans to find a few sets of textbooks to review in advance.
Not long after the Chinese New Year, Lin Xia completely separated the two little ones into separate rooms. Not to mention Lu Yuxiu, she couldn't stand the pain of changing rooms in the middle of the night.
Changing rooms this time is much easier than letting An An sleep alone at that time. After all, the two little ones can have company.
On the morning of Lele and Ningning's birthday, Lin Xia got up early to prepare. It happened that Lu Yuxiu didn't have to go to the camp that day, so he was captured by Lin Xia to serve as a soldier.
"Is it okay to beat it like this?" Lu Yuxiu showed Lin Xia the bowl. Fresh milk and egg white were beaten at a long and even speed, turning into white cream.
The cream had been whipped into pointed peaks with curved hooks. Lin Xia nodded, "That's it."
It is delivered every morning. After drinking, the empty bottle is placed at the door and the milk delivery person will take it back the next day. All the families in the family quarters with better conditions have placed orders. Lin Xia tried it and found it tasted really good. She ordered one kilogram every day and the whole family drank it together.
It's a pity that the two little guys like it, but An An and Lu Yuxiu are not used to drinking it.
Seeing that today's milk was used to make cakes and no longer needed to be drunk, Lu Yuxiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that milk had a fishy smell and he could not get used to drinking it no matter what.
Lin Xia took out the cake base and removed it from the mold. The golden yellow cake smelled of milk.
After cutting the cake base, Lin Xia saw the fruits in the middle. She chopped up the strawberries and put them inside. She spread cream on the outside and decorated the top. Lin Xia felt that this was no different from the ones bought in cake shops, not to mention that there were no cake shops at that time.
At noon, Lin Xia cooked noodles for the three children and came out with a red and white cake, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
The three children gathered around. An An had eaten it before on her birthday. Lin Xia made her a mango mille-feuille cake. She didn't feel jealous at all, she just wanted to eat it.
Lele was so happy that he was leaning on the table, looking up at the cake with his head drooling.
Ningning was happy for a while, then she felt something was wrong.
"Anything else?" He looked behind Lin Xia and saw nothing. He tugged at Lin Xia's clothes, raised his little face, blinked his eyes and looked questioning.
If my sister celebrates her birthday alone, she will have one cake. If she and my brother celebrate their birthdays together, they will have two cakes!
"Two?" Lin Xia was a little confused by the question and didn't know what she was talking about.
"One for my sister, one for my brother, and one for me." Ningning stretched out four fingers to show her mother.
Lin Xia instantly thought of the time when An An had her birthday. She had tricked the two little ones into making two cakes for their birthdays. She hadn't even thought of it when she was making the cakes this morning.
Lele's mind was full of cake and he couldn't remember it at all, but Lin Xia really didn't expect a two-year-old child to remember this.
She squatted down and hugged Ningning and said, "There is another cake that mom has saved. I will make it for you next time. This way you can have cake twice."
Looking at the two fingers her mother pointed at, Ningning's eyes lit up when she heard that she could eat it twice, and she happily agreed, "Thank you, Mom!" The baby's voice was so soft that Lin Xia's heart softened. She had just been fooling around at first, but now she made up her mind immediately.
Make it! It's just a cake! Lin Xia looked at Lu Yuxiu's arm. It's okay. Dad is strong. It's just a cake. It's not that difficult!
"Mom! Can I eat it?" Lele yelled. He couldn't hold it in any longer and his saliva had already flowed down to his chin.
Lin Xia really couldn't bear to see it and was about to wipe it for him, but the boy wiped it off with just a raise of his little hand.
Lin Xia and Lu Yuxiu made eye contact, and both saw disdain in each other's eyes.
Looking at the silly Lele who only cared about eating, and then looking at the well-behaved Ningning next to him, Lin Xia couldn't help but sigh in her heart, how could there be such a big difference between them, born of the same mother!
One only knows how to eat, the other knows how to count!
Lin Xia couldn't help but worry about her son's IQ. Maybe he gave all his IQ to his younger sister when he was in the womb.
After lighting the candles, Lin Xia asked the two little ones to make a wish together.
"I made a wish that I can eat cake every day from now on!" Lele couldn't wait to shout out loud. The moment he made the wish, his eyes looked at Lin Xia, knowing that Lin Xia was the one who could fulfill his wish.
Lin Xia instantly overturned her own thoughts. It seemed that this boy was not so stupid.
"No!" Lin Xia looked over and refused.
If she really has to eat a cake every day, she will be exhausted to death!
"Mom, I made a wish to eat meat!" Ningning saw that the cake was gone, and looked at Lin Xia eagerly to make a wish.
Wow, these two little guys just treat her as the one who makes their wishes come true, right?
"I'll think about it." Having been rejected once, it would be difficult to refuse a second time, so Lin Xia agreed tactfully.
"Great!" the three little guys cheered together.
"But I have a condition!" Lin Xia suddenly said, and the three little guys' happy smiles suddenly faded.
"After Lele and Ningning's birthday, they will be one year older. They will be big kids now. Only big kids can eat a lot of meat and cake!" Lin Xia said seriously, "Is mom right?"
"Yes!" the two little guys answered in unison.
When An An heard this familiar rhetoric, she immediately knew that her mother was going to fool her younger brothers and sisters, so she just watched from the side without exposing her.
