The candles were small colorful candles with spiral shapes that Jane Ning found in her original backpack in Baicaojian. She had bought this pack of candles the day before she traveled through time to celebrate Wu Dui's birthday.
That day, she baked a small cake at home and bought a box of birthday candles from a bakery, intending to muster up the courage to confess her feelings to Captain Wu that very day. However, before she could even deliver the cake, she received an urgent mission to the border. Before leaving, she locked the cake in her office cabinet, intending to give it to Captain Wu upon her return.
But who knew that she died in the border forest the next day, and when she woke up she found herself in ancient times, becoming the mother of the four little ones and the wife of Ding Youtian.
Fortunately, she put the candles in her backpack that day, otherwise the atmosphere would have been ruined without the candles.
"Close your eyes and make a wish in your heart." She urged with a smile.
"Okay, that's allowed." Ding Youtian looked at Jian Ning deeply. When Meixiang saw this, she curled her lips and felt unhappy.
"Brother Ding, what wish did you make? Does it work?" Meixiang asked impatiently after Ding Youtian opened his eyes after making his wish.
"You can't say it. It won't work if you say it." Jian Ning glanced at Meixiang. Things are different now. She and Ding Youtian have already made a promise to spend their lives together. If Meixiang does anything excessive again, she will not let her go.
Meixiang snorted secretly, her eyes fell on the cake on the table, and she said, "What kind of cake is this? It's really ugly."
"Then don't eat it!" Erniu glared at her angrily.
"Sister Meixiang, let my mother check your eyes later. The cakes my mother made are so beautiful, but you still say they are ugly. Your eyes are not good and you need some medicine." Sanniu said to her seriously.
"Thank you, you don't have to worry about me, my eyes are fine." Meixiang thought to herself, if her eyesight was not good, would she be able to fall in love with your father?
Really, little brat.
Mei Xiangju hated Erniu and Sanniu, especially Erniu. She had the worst mouth, loved food, and loved beauty; these two little girls were hard to handle. Only the eldest was slightly more to her liking. She secretly thought that once she won over Ding Youtian and became the mistress of the family, she would sell Erniu and Sanniu out first.
Sell them to a wealthy family to be maids, and make them maids for the rest of their lives, which will tire them to death. Let's see if they still dare to join in opposing her!
Jian Ning took down the candle and handed a knife to Ding Youtian. She also took the knife out of her backpack. It was small, exquisite and extremely sharp. It was her personal hidden weapon, used to deal with vicious criminals in close combat.
"Cut from here. Don't damage this piece. Cut the whole thing off and enjoy it. You are the birthday boy." Jane Ning pointed at the dough figurine she had made on the cake.
There were seven little dough figurines together, including their family of six and Blind Liu.
"Give me this." Erniu pointed at one of the two identical dough figurines and shouted, "I want to eat my sister."
"Then I'll eat this one, and I'll eat Second Sister." Sanniu pointed at the other one.
"Don't talk nonsense." Ding Youtian's knife hadn't fallen yet. "These little figures are too real. I can't bear to eat them. I'd better cut them up and offer them as a sacrifice."
He carefully cut off the seven little figures on the top layer of the skin and put them aside before cutting the cake.
Jian Ning smiled and said, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have made dough figurines."
"No, it's well made. I'm very happy." Ding Youtian handed the first piece of cake to Jian Ning. "Thank you, my wife, for your trouble. Not only for my birthday, but also for our family. If it weren't for you, I don't know what our family would be like now. Thank you for your hard work, my wife!"
"What's the big deal? It's my duty." Jane Ning took the cake and lowered her head. For some reason, Ding Youtian's words made her nose sore and she felt like crying.
But there is also a sweetness in my heart.
It was the first time she had heard such heartwarming words from someone. Her master, Grandma Wu, was a man of few words. No matter whether she did something well or not, she would never say a word. If she did something wrong, she would be punished; if she did something well, the master would at most nod her head in approval.
Later, she entered the police academy and joined the special police team. When she had nothing to do, she often made some pastries for her teammates to taste. Everyone either said they were good or said thank you. Over time, she got used to silently contributing and thought it was a natural thing.
When she heard Ding Youtian say thank you for his hard work and concern today, she had to say that although she wanted to cry for some reason, it felt great.
Meixiang saw the joy in her eyes and eyebrows, and rolled her eyes in her heart.
What are you so happy about? Brother Ding is just using you to house and take care of his children. Do you really think Brother Ding likes you?
Meixiang was completely skeptical of the idea that Ding Youtian liked Jian Ning. Yesterday before dinner, the Grand Tutor and Ding Youtian were talking in the main hall. She slipped in to serve tea and quietly glanced into the inner room. She saw another bed besides the small one.
Which couple would put a small bed in their bedroom? From this, she concluded that her original guess was correct. Most likely, her eldest brother Ding married Jian Ning at the behest of his parents. No wonder he wanted to sever ties with his parents.
Yes, that's definitely the case.
The more Meixiang thought about it, the more she felt that her analysis was correct. Her confidence increased inexplicably, and she couldn't help but glance at Ding Youtian.
Only then did I notice the pendant hanging around his waist.
"Brother Ding, this pendant is so ugly. And this piece of black jade, why did you make it black? It doesn't look good at all."
Ding Youtian didn't have this pendant on him yesterday, and Meixiang knew it must have been given to him by Jian Ning to celebrate his birthday.
"This doll is so weird. What kind of clothes is it wearing? And what's that weird hat on its head? Hey, why does it look like... Is it Sister Jane?"
She looked at Jane Ning.
"Yes, there's nothing wrong with your eyes. It's me." Jane Ning glared at her unhappily.
