It's rare for the days to be peaceful, and Mingsi's birthday is approaching.
I looked at Mingsi's photo on my desk, and the corners of my mouth curled up gently.
Mingsi will be 52 years old soon. This is also the first time I will celebrate her birthday with her. It must be a lively and memorable one.
I was searching online for the most suitable hotel for my birthday party when the study door opened and Mingsi walked in with hot milk.
"Still busy working!"
She walked over to me, and before I could close all the web pages, she accidentally saw what was on the screen.
Mingsi was slightly startled, so I simply stopped hiding it: "Isn't your birthday coming up soon? I was thinking of giving you a good one."
Mingsi smiled gently and stuffed the milk into my hand: "Mom is old and doesn't like crowds. She just wants the whole family to sit together and have a quiet meal."
"That won't do! This is the first birthday I spend with you." I still insisted on having a birthday party.
Mingsi smiled with narrowed eyes and touched my head: "I know you are filial, but when you reach mom's age, you will understand that those rituals are not as important as the peace and security of the family and the reunion."
I could understand Mingsi's thoughts. After struggling for a while in my heart, I finally agreed with Mingsi.
After all, the birthday boy is the biggest.
I booked this family birthday party at the Huake Resort. It is secluded, the air is good, the scenery is beautiful, and it makes people feel happy.
Qiu Qiu and I were setting up the dining table in the yard. Mingsi was sitting comfortably on the hanging chair in the yard, watching us busy ourselves.
"It's great! My baby daughter has grown up so fast that she can even organize a birthday party for me."
I turned around and gave her a playful smile: "Yes, yes, I will do it for you every year from now on!"
"Then I have to live a few more years."
"My mother will live a long life!"
Ming Si smiled: "I'm just worried that you'll find me nagging and annoying!"
Seeing us mother and daughter joking around, Qiu Qiu looked envious.
She works hard in Beijing alone and only goes home twice a year. Now she must be thinking of her parents.
I patted Mingsi's shoulder and comforted her, "Next time it's Auntie's birthday, I'll go back with you to celebrate with her."
Qiu Qiu forced a smile at me: "My mother is conservative. She must think we are extravagant."
I whispered in her ear, "All mothers are the same. My mom thinks I'm extravagant, too, but I don't listen."
Qiu Qiu's depressed mood was swept away. I raised my eyebrows at her and told her mysteriously, "You are also half the protagonist today!"
Qiu Qiu was completely confused and thought I was joking. He pushed me and said, "You're talking nonsense again!"
I deliberately asked, "Aren't you curious about where my uncle went? You haven't seen him since you came here."
"He can go wherever he wants, it has nothing to do with me." Qiu Qiu said hypocritically, not daring to look me in the eye.
As soon as he finished speaking, a car stopped at the gate of the yard. It was Mingyuan's car.
Although he said that he didn't mind, Qiu Qiu immediately raised his head and stared at the car intently.
The car door opened, Mingyuan got out of the car, opened the back door himself, and helped the two elders of the Ming family get out of the car.
Mingsi came over in surprise: "Dad, Mom?"
She ran to the two elders of the Ming family like a child, with unconcealable joy in her eyes.
"Why are you here?!"
