Chapter 178 The Enviable Shen Haifeng
Fang Xiaoluo was really not in a hurry to have a child.
"I'm only nineteen, so there's no need to have a child so early."
Qian Haixia said, "That's true. People don't want to have children so early now. Besides, every family only has one child, so you can have one anytime."
"Yes." Fang Xiaoluo said, "Besides, having a child is a matter of fate. It will come when it comes, and there's no need to worry if it doesn't. I won't confine myself to this matter."
She still had so many things to do.
Qian Haixia looked at Fang Xiaoluo and felt more and more that her son was really not worthy of her.
It would be better if Fang Xiaoluo didn't marry into the family. Such a good girl should have a good family to love her.
Arriving at the next bus stop, Fang Xiaoluo took out two candies from his pocket and handed them to Qian Haixia, "Auntie, I really don't know what happened to you, and I really don't want to ask about your family's affairs. But I still want to say that living for yourself and being a little selfish may not be a bad thing."
Qian Haixia looked at the candies in her hand, then looked at the direction where the bus left, and heard what Fang Xiaoluo had just said.
Live for yourself?
She has worked hard for the Zhou family all her life, and now her son has not been well educated, and her daughter-in-law quarrels every day.
How can she let go of all this and live for herself?
Can a married woman with children really live for herself?
But what about Fang Xiaoluo? She is married and has children. What's more terrible is that they are not her own children. In everyone's eyes, life is impossible for her.
However, everyone can see that Fang Xiaoluo has done whatever she wants.
She teaches her children well and gets along well with her mother-in-law. Her family is also prosperous.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with her.
Qian Haixia went out to deliver something to Wu Xiaoling, and Xu Yaqiu was still working in the factory.
She was very lazy at work, and the team leader thought that she was the daughter-in-law of the factory director and just turned a blind eye.
Xu Yaqiu was still thinking that she had said so much to Ma Yongfeng, and she was still waiting for Ma Yongfeng to ask her for help.
If she could get in touch with the rich Ma Yongfeng, it would be very good.
But Ma Yongfeng was not stupid. The people he sent out asked around and he knew that Xu Yaqiu and Fang Xiaoluo did not have a good relationship.
"Boss, what should we do now? They don't have a good relationship, so can they still sell vegetables to us because of Xu Yaqiu?"
Ma Yongfeng said, "They don't have a good relationship, so this won't work. But it will be useful sooner or later."
Xu Yaqiu didn't wait for Ma Yongfeng to beg her. Instead, after work, she found that her family had only eaten steamed buns and pickled cabbage.
"Mom, why are you eating this?"
Qian Haixia took a bite of the steamed buns, "All the food at home was given to Wu Xiaoling. Do you think we are a wealthy family and it is so easy to make some money? If we were not afraid that Wu Xiaoling would go to the police station to report you, would we do this?"
Xu Yaqiu was stupefied, "But I'm pregnant. Will eating this nourish the baby in my belly?"
"Don't you earn a salary? I bought this with my own money. If you don't want to eat it, buy it yourself."
After being retorted by Qian Haixia, Xu Yaqiu was so angry that she didn't eat.
The next morning, Fang Xiaoluo got up early to knead the dough.
Zheng Lanhua saw Fang Xiaoluo busy early in the morning, "What are you doing?"
"Rolling noodles."
Fang Xiaoluo knew that the whole family didn't care when the children's birthdays were.
Many people also said that it didn't matter whether children had birthdays or not.
So she didn't mention it, and no one in the family remembered that today was Shen Haifeng's birthday.
Zheng Lanhua suddenly realized, "You blanched a big pot of beef last night, just to eat noodles this morning?"
"Yes, authentic braised beef noodles." Fang Xiaoluo lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma of beef filled the room, "Mom, smell it, it's been soaked all night, it tastes amazing, and the color is good too."
Zheng Lanhua went over and scooped it up with a spoon. The big brown-red chunks of beef soaked in rich sauce looked appetizing.
Fang Xiaoluo rolled the noodles while Zheng Lanhua lit the fire to cook them.
The noodles with a fragrant noodle aroma were taken out of the pot, drizzled with the braised beef broth, and topped with large pieces of beef, which smelled very fragrant.
The children also got up and washed up, and Zheng Lanhua brought the noodles to the table.
"This bowl will be for later. I have something else. This is for Haifeng."
Fang Xiaoluo left a bowl of noodles, took a carrot, cut it with a knife, and finally made four words - Happy Birthday, and put it on the top.
Shen Haifeng looked at the big bowl of noodles in front of him, with the four words "Happy Birthday" on it.
"Mom, whose birthday is it?"
Fang Xiaoluo handed over the chopsticks, "You."
Shen Haifeng was stunned for a long time, "Can I have a birthday too?"
Few families celebrate children's birthdays. They say that children don't need to celebrate birthdays.
"Of course you can." Fang Xiaoluo said, "Although we are young, we must have a sense of ceremony. I missed Haiping and Xia Xia's birthdays this year, but I will celebrate them for you every year from now on."
Shen Haiping's eyes sparkled, and Shen Jinxia clapped her hands, "Can I have a birthday too?"
"Yes, everyone in our family will celebrate from now on."
Shen Haifeng was very happy and felt warm in his heart, "Thank you, Mom."
"You're welcome, eat quickly. A good day starts with a delicious breakfast." As he said that, Fang Xiaoluo took out a red envelope that had been wrapped in red paper from his pocket and handed it to Shen Haifeng, "This is your pocket money for today."
Fang Xiaoluo was right, the breakfast was delicious, especially for Shen Haifeng, this was the most delicious noodles he had ever eaten.
When Yu Feixu, Zhang Lu and others came to find Shen Haifeng to go to school, Shen Haifeng was very excited.
"My mother made beef noodles for me this morning. It was so delicious."
"The noodles were so delicious, and the noodle soup was full of beef flavor. The beef was so big, so soft and fragrant."
Shen Haifeng said, while Yu Feixu and Zhang Lu drooled.
"And more, my mom also put carrots in it. They are the most delicious and sweetest carrots I have ever eaten!"
Zhang Lu swallowed his saliva, "What's the big deal about carrots? I hate eating them the most."
Shen Haifeng rolled his eyes at him, "What do you know? My mom cut the carrots into four words for me and put them in the bowl - Happy Birthday! My mom cut the words so beautifully, and carrots taste the best!"
"Ah?" Yu Feixu was very envious, "Aunt made it specially for your birthday?"
Shen Haifeng was proud, "Of course, my mother is so nice. She said that she will celebrate our birthdays every year in the future."
Zhang Lu was also envious, "Your mother is so nice."
Shen Haifeng took out a red envelope from his pocket and shook it, "My mother also gave me a red envelope."
Yu Feixu was anxious, "Hurry and take a look, how much money is in it?"
Several children pooled together a piece of money, and Shen Haifeng carefully opened the red envelope. The money inside was all new. He counted it and it was a total of six yuan and sixty-six cents.
Yu Feixu sighed again and again, "Shen Haifeng, you are so lucky. Your aunt must hope that everything goes well for you. What an auspicious number. No, I also want to go home and let my mother celebrate my birthday next time!"
