Chapter 507 Third Birthday
"Xiaobao!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, you are finally back!"
Everyone shouted with joy.
Although I didn't say it, I was really worried that the little baby was having so much fun in heaven that he forgot to come back.
"Yes! I'm fat!" The familiar soft and cute baby voice made everyone smile involuntarily.
But after looking up for a while, he didn't see any sign of the dragon.
But then they saw a dazzling flame rushing from the horizon. Everyone was surprised and asked, "Look! What is that?"
"It looked like a big fireball fell from the sky?"
"Everyone, get out of the way!"
The villagers dodged in all directions after hearing the loud bang.
In the blink of an eye, the blazing flame appeared before his eyes, hanging in the air without falling.
Only then did everyone see clearly that this was not a big fireball, but a ferocious-looking divine beast.
Unlike the divine dragon's eyes which showed compassion, the divine beast in front of him had fierce and murderous eyes, and his gaze was terrifying.
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact with the divine beast. They felt even more uneasy and reminded each other:
"Everyone be careful, there's a Qilin in the sky!"
"It's a fire-breathing Qilin!"
"Legend has it that the Fire Kirin is incredibly ferocious. The flames on its body are enough to destroy a vast army, and a single stomp of its foot can turn an earth dragon over!"
"The Fire Qilin has arrived in Black River City. What does this mean?"
"It means I'm getting fatter!" The little dumpling poked his head out from the Fire Kirin.
"Her Majesty?!"
Only then did everyone realize that Xiao Jiuer was riding on the back of the Fire Qilin, and they were immediately surprised and happy.
"Your Majesty, have you changed your mount again?"
"You're not riding a dragon this time? You're riding a fire unicorn instead?"
"Yes!" Little Dumpling stroked the Fire Kirin's fur, "Don't be afraid, Xiaodai won't hurt you!"
Everyone was relieved when they saw that the Fire Kirin was very docile in front of Xiao Jiuer.
I was just very surprised:
Your Majesty, don’t you feel hot sitting on the fire unicorn that is covered in flames?
"Xiaobao, we've been waiting for you to come back!" Luo Qiuyue ran out of the courtyard in a hurry, with the Regent beside her and other family members following behind her.
"Xiaobao, come down!" Ye Buwei stretched out his hand.
The little dumpling jumped into Ye Buwei's arms and waved his little hand towards Huo Qilin, "Xiao Dai, you can get fat!"
The Fire Qilin nodded, turned around and walked away on the clouds.
Luo Qiuyue couldn't wait to hug the little girl and kissed her little chin fiercely a few times. "As the saying goes, a day without seeing you feels like three years. I miss you so much, Grandma!"
Little Dumpling: "..."
I wasn't away long!
Yunniang wiped her hands on her apron, took the little dumpling and kissed it, tears of heartache flashing in her eyes, "Xiaobao has become so thin from hunger!"
Little Dumpling: ???
That's impossible. I was only away for a short while, and I became thinner so quickly?
Ye Yanping opened his big hand and hugged the little girl, "My dear, you've been gone for six days. We were so worried!"
"Yes!" Ye Yan'an and Ye Yanshun each held a small hand. "You suddenly flew into the sky, and we don't know when you will come back. Our hearts are in turmoil, as if we have lost our souls!"
Because Xiaotuanzi had been missing for a long time, the Regent and Zhao Xingjian discussed and planned to change the wedding date.
But Zen Master Huineng told them not to worry, so the wedding was still held today.
"Sister!" Xiaowen and Xiaowu shouted from the side, "Don't go to heaven anymore. When you're not home, Mommy doesn't have the heart to make delicious food!"
Xiaowen and Xiaowu were really thin because of hunger, and their chins became pointed.
Only then did the little girl realize that everyone in the family had dark circles under their eyes, and it was obvious that they hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.
"I'm sorry, I won't mind the debt in the future!" The little dumpling felt extremely guilty.
She really didn't know that so many days had passed on earth just by going to heaven.
"No need to apologize." Ye Buwei held the little girl in his arms and touched her little face. "It's just right that you're back now. Today is your birthday."
"Huh? Isn't it the day after tomorrow?"
"No, no!" Fan Changfu hurried over. "Xiaobao, you were born on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month. Today is your birthday!"
"Two happy events are happening at the same time. We're thinking of having a birthday party for you at noon and a wedding party for Yan An in the evening!"
"Luckily you came back in time, otherwise we wouldn't be able to have the feast without you, the little birthday girl!"
The aroma of food wafted towards us, and villagers lined up in a long queue, carrying trays filled with dishes.
Xiao Jiuer looked up and saw that the open space on the village road was filled with banquet tables and chairs, stretching as far as the eye could see.
This scene looks like a banquet for the whole city!
The sound of gongs and drums rang out, and the crackling sound of firecrackers was heard in the distance. The ministers arrived together, followed by the jubilant people of Heihe City.
"Congratulations to Her Majesty the Queen on her birthday!"
The ministers were in front, the people were behind, and everyone knelt on the ground.
"Eh? Didn't you say you wouldn't kneel?"
Before Xiao Jiuer ascended the throne, the Regent's family had already made an agreement with the villagers that since everyone lived in the same village, they would see each other every day, so the kneeling ceremony would be omitted.
"Today is different. Today is Her Majesty the Queen's birthday. How can one celebrate a birthday without kneeling?"
"Stand up! Stand up!" Little Jiuer raised his little hands in an elegant manner.
Everyone kowtowed three times and bowed nine times before standing up.
The village chief came forward with ten other village chiefs.
"Your Majesty, the Regent does not wish to accept gifts, so we have prepared a little gift for you!"
Zhuang Lizheng brought over a small box and took out a string of golden objects from it.
"This is a longevity lock created by the eleven villages of Black River City. May Her Majesty live forever!"
As he said this, he put the longevity lock around Xiao Jiuer's neck.
Xiao Jiuer touched the cool gold chain and the heavy longevity lock on her neck, feeling warm in her heart. "Thank you for your gifts! But you don't have to spend so much money!"
The villagers laughed and said, "Your Majesty, with Patriarch Fan leading us to earn money, we are not short of money now!"
"Eleven villages fighting for a pair of golden longevity locks is nothing!"
"We wish Her Majesty a long and prosperous life!"
"Thank you everyone! I will wear it all the time!" The little dumpling had a smile on his face and nodded his head obediently.
"This is the rice prepared for Her Majesty the Queen! Her Majesty will not be sick after eating this rice!"
The villagers came over pulling a cart full of rice.
"This rice from hundreds of families is enough for Her Majesty the Queen to eat for a year. We'll prepare more for next year!"
"Okay!" Little Dumpling looked at the dozen bags of rice from various families and felt that the task of eating in the future would be very difficult.
"We've even made a patchwork quilt for Her Majesty!" The village head pulled out a bundle. "When Her Majesty wears this patchwork quilt, she'll be safe and sound!"
Little Jiuer looked at the colorful patchwork quilt that was handed to her, and the smile on her little face became forced.
Last year's patchwork quilt is finally worn out!
Unexpectedly, the new patchwork quilt was seamlessly connected!
"Every year from now on, we will sew patchwork quilts for Her Majesty until she reaches adulthood!"
"Uh..." The little dumpling's eyes turned black.
In other words, I won’t be able to get rid of this Beggar Gang costume for the next ten years!
