Meanwhile, Lin Ran did not wait for Chen Ze to return until she left the Huangqiao Brigade.
I could only leave temporarily with disappointment in my heart.
Looks like I have to find time to come back.
After Lin Ran returned, she was in a daze because she was still thinking about Chen Ze.
Fortunately, she still remembered that the 28th was Shi Yan's birthday.
She has already prepared the gifts.
On the 28th, Lin Ran got up early to roll noodles.
Just to make a bowl of longevity noodles for Shi Yan personally.
Although the Lin family felt a little sad when they saw this, they were considerate enough not to disturb the two of them.
After breakfast, the whole family went to work.
Even Lin Laosan took the initiative to run to the back mountain to pick mulberry leaves, and took Song Yao with him.
Shi Yan didn't think much about it and went to the silkworm house to work as usual.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Ran hurried to the kitchen to start cooking longevity noodles.
She rolled out the dough into a whole thin noodle that was nearly two meters long.
After putting it in the pot and boiling it, I added two eggs.
Finally, it was put into a large porcelain bowl and taken to the silkworm room.
Shi Yan was completely stunned almost the moment he saw the bowl of noodles.
Seeing that Shi Yan had been staring at the noodles in her hand, Lin Ran congratulated him a little uncomfortably:
"Happy birthday!"
Shi Yan stared for a long time until he noticed Lin Ran frowning. Then he realized that it must be difficult for Lin Ran to hold such a big bowl, and annoyance flashed in his eyes.
Immediately walked towards Lin Ran.
He took the longevity noodles from Lin Ran's hand with one hand and suddenly stretched out the other hand towards Lin Ran's face.
Although Lin Ran was a little confused, she did not avoid it.
Shi Yan gently wiped the black ash off the tip of Lin Ran's nose as if it were a treasure.
Strictly speaking, today was Lin Ran's first time cooking.
It was also my first time cooking.
So it is inevitable that there is some unfamiliarity.
Even when I was boiling pot, I didn't even notice that the black ash on my hands accidentally rubbed against the tip of my nose.
When Shi Yan finished wiping and took his hand back, Lin Ran saw his blackened fingertips and realized what had happened.
He looked a little embarrassed for a moment.
She urged a little embarrassedly:
“Longevity noodles must be eaten while hot.
My cooking skills may not be very good, so you can just eat it as it is, mainly for the sake of good luck."
When Shi Yan heard this, his throat choked and he couldn't speak.
However, even if I had thousands of words, it would be difficult to describe my feelings at the moment.
So he took the chopsticks from Lin Ran's hand and started eating noodles.
As he was eating, perhaps because the noodles were too hot, his eyes became hot and he even felt like crying.
In order to prevent Lin Ran from noticing anything unusual, he buried his head in the large porcelain bowl and swallowed it in big gulps.
Seeing this, Lin Ran was afraid that he would choke, so she quickly advised:
"Don't be impatient, eat slowly."
Shi Yan finished all the longevity noodles in one breath, leaving not even a drop of soup. He concealed the heat in his eyes and then looked up at Lin Ran.
"This is the best longevity noodles I have ever eaten. I will never forget it."
The deep affection in his black eyes was almost solidified.
But Lin Ran felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
"It's not as exaggerated as you say!"
After all, she is aware of her cooking skills.
It's okay to ask her to make some pastries, but as for cooking, she has never done it before.
Plus, there is no seasoning now, so there is no room for creativity.
Shi Yan put down his bowl and chopsticks, held Lin Ran's shoulders with both hands, his eyes full of seriousness.
"No exaggeration, Ranran did the best, thank you Ranran, I am really happy.
It’s been a long time since I’ve celebrated my birthday as formally as today.”
The last time it was so grand was when nothing happened to the Shi family.
Later, after he went to the Song family, his mother would cook a bowl of longevity noodles for him at the beginning.
But every time this happened, Song Yunlu and Song Yunkai would always have a big fight.
It is said that their stepmother Luo Wanjun deliberately treated them differently and abused them.
No matter how Luo Wanjun explained, it was useless.
In the end, Song Wenhua naturally pretended to be helpless, and then asked Luo Wanjun to serve a bowl of noodles to everyone.
Afterwards, Song Yunlu and his sister blocked him in an alley and ridiculed him.
From then on, he never thought about his birthday again.
On this day every year, he would deliberately avoid returning to the Song family.
After Luo Wanjun tried to persuade him several times without success, she could only let Shi Yan go.
However, even though Shi Yan didn't say anything, Lin Ran still guessed something from the sadness that flashed across Shi Yan's face.
Today is Shi Yan's birthday. Lin Ran hopes that he can be happier and not think about the unhappy things in the past.
So, she tilted her head and said playfully:
"Since you are so satisfied, it seems there is no need to take out the birthday gift I prepared for you.
It’s a good opportunity to save money.”
When Shi Yan heard that there was a gift, and that it was a gift prepared for him by Lin Ran herself, a bright light suddenly bloomed in his dark eyes.
But when he heard Lin Ran's next words, he immediately became anxious, and the hands holding Lin Ran's shoulders tightened slightly.
"Good Ranran, stop teasing me, where is the gift?"
When Lin Ran saw that Shi Yan's black eyes were filled with his own reflection, without any other shadow, he knew that his goal had been achieved.
She stopped teasing Shi Yan and took out the gift she had prepared long ago from her bag.
Shi Yan looked at the cloth bag carefully wrapped in red cloth. When he reached out to take it, he was trembling a little, just like his nervous mood at the moment.
This gift is actually more than just an ordinary birthday gift.
