Chapter 256 The First Time



Juanjuan didn't make a point of inquiring about the aftermath of the barbecue powder incident.

I only occasionally heard my parents mention that Princess Chaoyang had a very good relationship with the Emperor, and that the Emperor was a wise ruler who not only spent money to buy the remaining barbecue powder.

They even sent people to help Princess Chaoyang find out where the barbecue powder came from.

With an autumn rain, the weather suddenly turned cool.

I've been busy lately, and this is my first time in Beijing. I didn't realize the weather here would turn cool down so quickly.

Jiang Dai and Bai Tian then realized that they needed to make new clothes quickly, and also make winter clothes while they were at it.

Especially for children with four children, the food has improved and it's a growth spurt, so their winter clothes need to be a few inches extra to avoid them being too small later.

When the new clothes arrived.

Juanjuan is playing Connect Four with her older brother.

This is what her mother taught her. The rules are simple, but you still need to use your brain to win.

At home, only her eldest brother could play with her; her two older brothers were just too good at chess.

Hearing their mother calling them, the two children put down their unfinished game of chess and went to the main room together.

Inside the room were several boxes of newly arrived clothes.

"Come on, Juanjuan, try this dress on!"

Jiang Dai held in her hands a brightly colored, soft, pale yellow dress and a hair ornament made of the same color.

When Bai Yunqi took his clothes back to the side room to change and returned to the main room, he saw his younger sister dressed up.

"Juanjuan, you're so cute right now!!"

Bai Yunqi praised his younger sister without reservation.

Her bright, pale yellow dress made her look delicate and adorable, especially after a touch of cinnabar between her eyebrows, which made her look lively and charming, captivating everyone's attention.

"Isn't it cute! I think this pale yellow color is perfect for curly hair."

Jiang Dai was also admiring the child's radiance. In modern times, this child could definitely be a child model or even play the little beauty of the female lead when she was younger.

Indeed, the saying "natural beauty looks good even in a burlap sack" is true, but the saying "clothes make the man" is also true. Juanjuan looked good in tattered clothes before, but now that she's wearing nice clothes, she's even more beautiful.

I wonder if Xiaobai has finished decorating the restaurant yet! This is my first birthday with Juanjuan!

[I'm going to give my child a huge surprise tomorrow!]

Suddenly, I heard this delightful surprise: !

Her birthday?

If her mother hadn't told her, she would never have known that tomorrow was her birthday!

Fortunately, her mother didn't continue thinking about other things, so Juanjuan still didn't know what gift her mother had prepared for her.

Furthermore, to avoid hearing her own thoughts about her birthday at night and diminishing the surprise of tomorrow, Juanjuan deliberately went to bed early.

It's because her family members, whether her parents or her brothers, have a habit of thinking about things for a while every night before going to bed.

She hears the most of her family's thoughts and feelings during mealtimes and before bedtime.

We avoided going at night.

But when it comes to breakfast, Juanjuan is truly unavoidable.

The area around the dining table seemed quiet, with only the slight sounds of eating, but to Juanjuan's ears, it was as lively as a bustling market.

Jiang Dai: [I'll go do the final touches later; I really want to give Juanjuan a wonderful surprise!]

Bai Tian: [I don't know if my little girl will like the gift. If it were my eldest son's birthday, it would be much simpler; I could just throw gold and silver jewelry at him.]

Bai Yunqi: [If it were my birthday, I wouldn't want anything but gold and silver jewelry, but this Juanjuan... giving gifts is such a hassle! Luckily, the cultivation world doesn't give gifts every year, so seclusion is a good thing!]

Bai Yunxing: [I wonder if Juanjuan will like the peace lock? And that Hundred Blessings Sutra, I've been copying it for several days, she should like it.]

Bai Yun'an: [That's the trouble with not revealing my identity. I have a bunch of good things in my spatial storage, but I don't dare to give them away.]

Juanjuan calmly ate her meal, trying to hypnotize herself into believing she couldn't hear, but that's just how contradictory she is; the more she didn't want to hear, the clearer she heard it.

The child could only eat faster and bury his head in his food!

When Juanjuan looked up again, she met five pairs of eyes staring at her with different emotions.

Jiang Dai: "The food I made? Is it this delicious today?"

Bai Tian: "Juanjuan, didn't you eat enough last night?"

Bai Yunqi glanced down at the food: "This can't be! Is it that delicious? I practically buried my head in it."

Bai Yunxing simply smiled at his sister and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Bai Yun'an silently poured the child another bowl of soup.

Juanjuan awkwardly put down her bowl.

It's good; you really can't hear any chaotic inner thoughts now, but she's a little embarrassed.

When Mu Zhaoyao came to pick up the child, the child was running noticeably faster.

Bai Yunqi crossed his arms: "Tell me, what's that little Juanjuan thinking about this time?"

Bai Yun'an gave the answer: "It's embarrassing, I obviously ran too fast."

Bai Yunxing nodded, indicating his agreement with his third brother's deduction.

Jiang Dai and Bai Tian finished tidying up and walked out of the house together.

"Let's go, let's make some final preparations. We'll celebrate the child's birthday at noon. This is the first time we've celebrated a family member's birthday since we transmigrated here."
