When the brothers heard that Xiao Yanbao was going to invite Su Meng to Li Muxing's birthday banquet, they all widened their eyes. Just as everyone was surprised, they heard their fourth uncle Li Qichen's voice coming from the bedroom.
"What are you all saying outside? Not one of you has shown any concern for me since I walked in!"
As soon as Li Qichen spoke, all the boys who were talking in the living room ran into Li Qichen's bedroom. A moment later, Li Qichen's angry voice came from the bedroom again. Xiao Yanbao saw his older brothers joking and playing around in his fourth uncle's room, pursed his lips, and turned to walk upstairs.
She needed to call her uncle and ask him to get in touch with Su Meng.
All afternoon, the Li brothers were busy preparing gifts for their eldest brother the next day. They even went to a shop that made amber and had all the gifts they were going to give to Li Muxing made into amber.
The shop owner, who has been running the business for over thirty years, had never made amber like this before. Scalp, toenails, and leftover snacks—these things made the master amber maker question his life choices.
Meanwhile, Li Muhao arrived at the calligraphy and painting shop right next to the amber shop.
"Hey young man, what would you like some?"
Li Muhao then raised his hand and handed the note to the shop owner, and said:
"Boss, please frame this for me. I'm giving it as a gift tomorrow, so it has to be framed with the best materials. I don't care about the price!"
"Of course! Of course!"
The shop owner took the note and thought to himself that it must have been written by a great writer, otherwise why would someone be so eager to frame it at such a high price?
However, after the shop owner saw the handwriting in carbon pen and the content on it, he looked at Li Muhao with some hesitation.
"Young man, you're not trying to scam this old man, are you? This isn't worth using such expensive materials for framing!"
When the shop owner looked at Li Muhao again, he already felt that Li Muhao might be playing a prank, and might just be there to amuse him.
When Li Muhao heard the shop owner say that the Ultraman receipt he wrote wasn't worth framing, he instantly felt a surge of anger, but he didn't show it. After saying that, the shop owner picked up the note and started studying how to frame it to make it more suitable as a gift.
"Young man, will this work?"
When Li Muhao saw the shop owner talking to him, he looked up at the shop owner.
"What's wrong? Tell me!"
The shop owner picked up a wooden frame from the side and said:
"How about I make it like this for you in a bit?"
After glancing at the wooden frame in the shopkeeper's hand, and then at the already framed calligraphy and paintings beside it, Li Muhao pointed to one of them and said:
"Can you frame this for me? How much? I'll pay you now!"
The shop owner was surprised that Li Muhao had found his most expensive framing option at a glance, and then said with some difficulty:
"Young man, I'm afraid this won't work; it's too expensive!"
Li Muhao pointed to the calligraphy and painting with his right hand and emphasized again:
"I said, use that for framing, money is not a problem!"
The shop owner sized up Li Muhao again, noticing that the man's attire was indeed extraordinary. Still somewhat hesitant, he gently bit his lower lip before tentatively speaking:
"This will cost 30,000 yuan! Don't be fooled by the small size of your characters; the materials alone will cost 26,000 to 27,000 yuan, plus the labor..."
Before the shop owner could finish speaking, his payment notification went off.
"30,000 yuan has been deposited into your account!"
At that moment, the shop owner seriously suspected that the little boy in front of him had secretly taken money from his family, but he had no way to ask him for details. He could only sigh, pick up the note that Li Muhao handed him, and walk towards the studio behind the shop.
Come pick it up in an hour!
Basically, all the brothers of the Li family had received their prepared gifts by dinner time, but none of them showed it to Li Muxing. They were just waiting to bombard him with gifts the next morning.
...
The next morning, Li Muxing had just gotten up when Liang Xunling pulled her to the restaurant.
"Hurry up and eat this bowl of longevity noodles. There's no class today, so our family is going to give you a proper birthday celebration!"
Li Muxing slapped her forehead, realizing she had forgotten it was her birthday. Seeing that her mother had already placed the longevity noodles on the table, she immediately picked up her chopsticks, picked up a longevity noodle, and began to slurp it up.
While Li Muxing was eating longevity noodles, Li Muchen and Li Muhao had already contacted all their brothers and Xiao Yanbao to gather in their living room.
"Second brother, shall we give the gift to eldest brother now?"
As Xiao Yanbao spoke, he revealed a heart-shaped wooden box in his palm, arousing the curiosity of his older brothers.
"Little sister Yanbao, what gift did you prepare for your big brother?"
It was Li Mufeng who spoke. Li Muchen pulled Li Mufeng, who had just asked the question, and then waved his hand, drawing the attention of all his brothers to himself.
"We'll go to the restaurant later, and I'll start by giving Big Brother his gift. Remember one thing! No one is allowed to laugh. We're going to give Big Brother the most unforgettable birthday ever."
All the brothers and Xiao Yanbao nodded very seriously.
Just as Li Muxing was about to finish her longevity noodles, she saw all her younger siblings, except for Li Mulang, line up and sing "Happy Birthday" as they walked from the living room to the dining room.
Happy birthday, big brother!
Led by Xiao Yanbao, the brothers wished Li Muxing a happy birthday. Then, Li Muchen came to Li Muxing with a red brocade box.
