Chapter 178 Can’t Fit It
Others came to the kitchen one after another and praised the pig buns after seeing them.
Today's breakfast is meat buns with white porridge.
The wolf cub smelled the scent and howled like a puppy.
But they were too young and could only drink milk, so Yin Yan and Xue Ji came in and wanted to take them away.
The little wolf cubs kept humming and were unwilling to go out at all. Yin Yan nudged them with his mouth, and the little guys acted coquettishly and staggered out on their short legs.
After everyone sat down, Rong'er handed the slightly cooled pig buns to Xiaojiu.
"Today is Xiao Jiuer's birthday. Xiao Jiuer's zodiac sign is the little golden pig, so I made these little pig buns as a birthday gift for Xiao Jiuer. Xiao Jiuer, Sister Rong'er wishes you a happy birthday!"
"Thank you!"
Xiao Jiuer ran to Ronger and tugged at her clothes. Ronger bent down and Xiaotuanzi gave her a kiss.
"Oh my God, Xiao Jiuer kissed me!" Ronger laughed happily.
The little dumpling ran back to his seat, holding the pig bun in both hands, and took a big bite. His mouth was full of the aroma of meat, tender and juicy. It was so delicious that his eyes narrowed.
"Rong'er, this gift is really worth it." Zhao Xingjian said with a smile, "The ingredients aren't mine, and the pots and pans and stoves aren't mine either. I just made a shape, and I got a kiss from Xiao Jiu'er. I've made a killing!"
"Daddy, why are you so sour in your words? I'm just offering a gift to Buddha!" Rong'er rolled her eyes. "Anyway, I've at least offered my heart. Daddy, you didn't come up with anything, did you?"
Zhao Xingjian put down his bowl and chopsticks slowly, "Don't tell me, I'm really ready!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a scroll from his bosom. "This is a painting called 'Plum Blossoms and Five Blessings' by my mentor, the veteran of three dynasties and the great sage Wang Changyang. I am now passing it on to you, Little Jiu'er. May you be born with wisdom and praise the universe, and may you speak pearls and praise the prosperous world! Happy birthday, Little Jiu'er!"
"Thank you, Fu Ji!" Little Dumpling answered in a baby voice.
"You're welcome!" Zhao Xingjian sat still, looking at the little dumpling with anticipation.
The little dumpling put down the bun in his hand, ran to Zhao Xingjian, and stood on tiptoe.
Zhao Xingjian was so excited that his eyebrows flew up and he leaned forward.
The little dumpling gave a kiss.
"Oh, my little darling, how come you are so smart!"
Zhao Xingjian's heart melted when he was kissed by the sweet and soft little ball, and his mouth almost stretched to the back of his neck.
If it weren't for the relationship of saving the little dumpling, he would definitely not dare to ask for a kiss from the little baby.
But it’s different now. In his heart, Xiao Jiuer is no different from his own baby.
"Ahem!" Ye Buwei cleared his throat, "Xiao Jiuer, come to my head."
"What a brain!" Little Dumpling jumped down from his seat.
Ye Buwei smiled and held the little girl in his arms.
Ye Buwei has been practicing martial arts in his room recently, and Xiao Jiuer must be worried.
"Xiao Jiu'er, Naobao also has a gift for you!"
Ye Buwei reached into his bosom and pulled out a square jade pendant made of mutton-fat white jade. The jade was crystal white without a single flaw, and it was covered with exquisite and intricate carvings. It was obvious that it was worth a fortune.
Ye Buwei stuffed the jade pendant into Xiaotuanzi's pocket.
"Thank you, Brain!" Little Dumpling hugged Ye Buwei's neck affectionately.
Ye Yanping opened his mouth wide and whispered to his two younger brothers, "I'm afraid this piece of jade is worth a lot of silver, right?"
Ye Yanshun nodded, "I'm afraid I can buy a big house in town."
Ye Yanping was shocked. "Our family was often so poor that we couldn't even afford to eat. Why didn't our father take it out and exchange it for silver to help us out in an emergency?"
Ye Yan'an pulled him and lowered his voice, "Brother, you're stupid! Think about what our father did before? Can we just take these things out and show them to the public? If this gets implicated in the past, it will be a big disaster!"
"Then why did our father take it out again now?"
"Isn't that because he was forced into a corner?" Ye Yan'an whispered, "The teacher just gave Xiao Jiuer a famous calligraphy and painting. How could our father, as his father's father, be willing to lose to the teacher? For the sake of face, he had no choice but to make up his mind and go all out, and take out this stolen... thing!"
Ye Yanping nodded, "Then I'm going to find a chance to hide this jade. It's better not to be seen by anyone! To avoid any trouble!"
"What are you guys whispering about?" Luo Qiuyue rolled her eyes at them. "Every day, there's so much drama going on in your mind!"
"A Ping, as a father, you wouldn't have failed to prepare a birthday gift for your daughter, right?"
"I'm prepared!" Ye Yanping was rummaging in his arms when suddenly a lively sound of gongs and drums rang out outside the door.
"This is..." The Ye family was stunned.
"Xiao Jiuer, we are here to celebrate your birthday!"
Laughter and cheers came from far away, and the village head and his fellow villagers rushed into the yard.
The Ye family hurried out of the kitchen.
The little girl was in Ye Buwei's arms, blinking her big eyes and looking at everyone with a smile.
"Hey, everyone, come and take a look. What's the difference between Xiao Jiuer's outfit today and the little fairy boy in the sky?" said the head of the village happily.
"It makes no difference. Little Jiuer is the most beautiful baby in the surrounding area!"
"No, it's the most beautiful baby in the entire Xianchuan County!"
"Wrong, it's the most beautiful baby girl in Dayuchao!"
Everyone was flattering him.
Little Dumpling's face turned red, and she kept trying to get into Ye Buwei's arms.
"Look, Xiao Jiuer is embarrassed!"
Everyone laughed.
"Thank you, fellow villagers!" Luo Qiuyue said with a smile. "It's just a little baby's birthday, but we didn't expect everyone to make such a fuss. The banging of gongs and drums makes us feel embarrassed."
"What? Didn't expect us to come?" The village head said with a smile, "It's Xiao Jiu'er's birthday, how could everyone not come?"
"That's right! Little Jiu'er's birthday is a big happy event for the whole village. We have to come and join in the fun no matter what!"
"Everyone, come in and sit down. You'll stay home for lunch!" Luo Qiuyue hurriedly greeted everyone.
"Don't be in a hurry to sit down! Let's give Xiao Jiuer a birthday present first!"
The villagers swarmed over him, "Xiao Jiu'er, today is your birthday. I wish you a long life, free from illness and disaster!"
"I wish Xiao Jiuer peace and happiness forever, and that she grows up quickly!"
"I wish Xiao Jiuer peace, happiness, and a smooth life!"
…
The villagers were talking to each other, and the little girl was stunned.
After saying that, he stuffed the gift into the little dumpling.
The little girl was so anxious that she kept yelling, "There are too many! I can't fit them all in!"
As he spoke, he used his little hands to expand the pockets of the little bag.
