Chapter 498 Extra - Fang Xiaoluo's Retirement Life [05]

Shen Zheng rolled his eyes at Shen Chiyue, "Why do we need so many children to go into business? You can't force them. As an elder, you should always ask the children's wishes. Everyone has different ambitions."

Shen Chiyue didn't care, "It's okay, just learn first. It's always good to have many skills."

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it's Fang Xiaoluo's sixtieth birthday.

Everyone in the family is busy making plans to celebrate Fang Xiaoluo's sixtieth birthday.

Therefore, Shen Haifeng and the others have already arranged the time for this year's leave. Unless there are extremely special circumstances, everyone can come back for Fang Xiaoluo's birthday.

Zheng Lanhua sat on the sofa and waved to Fang Xiaoluo, "You're turning sixty today, so don't rush around. Just leave it to the children."

Fang Xiaoluo sat over, "Mom, how come it's so fast, I'm already sixty. I thought I was eighteen."

Zheng Lanhua smiled, her teeth were not complete, but she looked very kind, "Okay, you can be whatever age you say you are, eighteen is not bad?"

The children gathered around, saying auspicious words one by one, trying to coax Fang Xiaoluo, and their smiles were so severe that their teeth were showing.

Fang Xiaoluo said, "Chi Yue said he has arranged a photographer. Let's take some good photos after we finish our meal."

Zheng Lanhua said happily, "Okay, I'll join in the fun with you guys. The older I get, the more I like taking photos."

Fang Xiaoluo said, "That's right. What's old or young? Ninety is the best age."

Zheng Lanhua smiled and said, "You praise me every day. I feel younger now."

In the kitchen, Shen Zheng, Shen Haifeng, Shen Haiping, Shen Chiyue, Yu Feiyue and Lu Ang were busy there.

Shen Qingyue poked her head over, "Do you need my sister and I to help you?"

Shen Haifeng said quickly, "You two can go wherever you like, stay away from the kitchen!"

Shen Qingyue pouted and said to Shen Jinxia, ​​"Sister, big brother seems to be discriminating against me."

Shen Jinxia smiled and said, "Let's go and don't blow up the kitchen, let them do it."

Shen Qingyue and Shen Jinxia didn't go far, they stayed in the kitchen and chatted.

Speaking of birthdays, the more they talked, the longer time went by.

Shen Haifeng said, "The first time my mother celebrated my birthday, she gave me a red sweater that she knitted herself, and I still have it."

Shen Haiping also said, "Yes, yes, I have one too."

Shen Chiyue and Shen Qingyue looked at each other, and they went to see Shen Jinxia together.

Shen Qingyue asked, "Sister, do you have one too?"

Shen Jinxia said, "Yes."

Shen Qingyue thought to herself that something was wrong, "Third brother, do you have one?"

Shen Chiyue shook his head, "You don't have one either?"

Shen Qingyue said, "Of course, if you don't have one, then I definitely don't have one either."

"Sister, where is your red sweater? What does it look like?"

Shen Jinxia opened her mouth, "It's... it's like a red sweater."

Shen Qingyue crossed her arms, "It's definitely not an ordinary one, show me."

Shen Jinxia couldn't persuade Shen Qingyue, so she took out her cell phone and found a photo, "I took this."

Shen Qingyue and Shen Chiyue both came over to take a look. The red sweater in the photo looked very small, with a little girl in the middle.

Shen Qingyue sighed, "Are your mother's hands so skillful?"

Shen Zheng said, "Of course, your mother knows a lot. The dishes she cooks are the most delicious in the world, and her craftsmanship is also the best in the world. She can embroider and make clothes. In short, there is nothing your mother can't do."

Shen Qingyue said, "No, I have to ask."

Shen Zheng shouted, "What are you asking?"

Shen Chiyue wiped his hands, "I have to ask too."

The two of them turned around and ran to the living room.

Shen Qingyue and Shen Chiyue pushed the children away and sat down next to Fang Xiaoluo on the left and right.

Shen Qingyue asked, "Mom, why did the eldest brother, the second brother and the sister all have a red sweater knitted by you when they were young, but my third brother and I don't have one?"

Fang Xiaoluo thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.

"That's because I was hardworking back then, but after I gave birth to you two, I became lazy and didn't want to move."

"After all, you two have to blame for this. Look, since you two were born, I don't want to cook, I don't want to make clothes, I threw away embroidery, I don't knit sweaters... I just eat, drink and sleep."

Shen Qingyue & Shen Chiyue: ...

This reason is really impeccable, and it feels like they are wrong. Okay, it's wrong, it's wrong, she's my own mother, she has to be coaxed.

Fang Xiaoluo said again, "Besides, what birthday gifts do you two want? Don't you two like money the most? Just give me money, and buy whatever you like."

"That's not what I said, it's what you two said before. You said that the sense of ceremony is not important, the cake is not delicious, and money is the most practical."

Shen Qingyue and Shen Chiyue looked at each other, and they said this.

Shen Qingyue stood up, "Okay, just pretend I wasn't here."

Shen Chiyue also stood up, "I didn't say anything just now."

During the meal, everyone toasted each other, and it was so lively.

From the old to the young, everyone prepared different birthday gifts for Fang Xiaoluo.

After the meal, Shen Chiyue invited a photographer to start taking pictures of everyone.

There were many people at home, and the pictures took a long time.

While everyone was running to look at the photos, Fang Xiaoluo and Shen Zheng exchanged glances.

The two quietly escaped from the crowd.

By the time everyone reacted, the two had already driven away.

Convertibles are great for driving.

The car drove all the way from the front door to the direction of Qingshi Town.

When they arrived at the gate of the military district, Shen Zheng parked the car outside and went through security with Fang Xiaoluo and entered the military district's family compound.

After so many years, this place has changed a lot.

The rows of bungalows with small courtyards have long been replaced by family buildings in the military district.

What has not changed is the feeling here.

Children can be seen running and playing everywhere, and people coming and going will come to say hello to Shen Zheng and Fang Xiaoluo from time to time.

Even though they no longer live here, Shen Zheng was still a famous major general before he retired.

Fang Xiaoluo is still a heroic wife loved by everyone in the military district.

The two walked side by side in the military compound.

There are countless memories here, flooding into my heart.

Shen Zheng looked at Fang Xiaoluo's profile. The year he met her, she was not yet nineteen years old.

She just burst into his life unexpectedly.

Or rather...it was he who burst into Fang Xiaoluo's life unexpectedly.

Fang Xiaoluo: "Shen Zheng, how many years have we been married?"

Shen Zheng: "Forty-one years."

Fang Xiaoluo: "Forty-one years." So, she has been here for forty-one years. That

's not right, or rather, she should have belonged here.

Fang Xiaoluo asked again, "Shen Zheng, if that woman wasn't me when we first met..."

Shen Zheng: "No ifs."

Fang Xiaoluo smiled, her eyes shining like stars, just as before, "Yes, no ifs."
