Mingsi usually likes to fiddle with flowers and plants, so she is always particularly sensitive when the topic of flowers is mentioned.
I felt strange when she asked this, but it was impossible for Che Xiaofeng to lie.
"I..." Che Xiaofeng was a little panicked and stammered, unable to give Mingsi an explanation.
"Maybe it's dried plum blossoms, soaked in water, a bit like freshly picked." Yan Meng spoke up at the right time to help, looking at Che Xiaofeng with a smile, "Think about it again."
Being stared at by Yan Meng, Che Xiaofeng looked a little nervous.
He nodded stiffly: "Yes, it's dried plum blossoms, I remembered it wrongly."
I chuckled helplessly. Che Xiaofeng was still so afraid of Yan Meng. Yan Meng was clearly smiling and helping him, but for some reason, every time he saw Yan Meng, he was like a mouse seeing a cat.
But it is normal for him to remember it wrong. After all, he has been separated from his mother for a long time, so it is inevitable that his memory will be biased.
Mingyuan suddenly glanced at Yan Meng and said half-jokingly, "I didn't expect you to remember Xiaofeng's birthday! It's really rare for you to be so thoughtful!"
I always felt that Mingyuan had something else to say, but Yan Meng had a smile on his face and his expression didn't change at all.
He responded calmly: "I have always been very careful."
After a pause, he suddenly turned to look at me, "Especially when it comes to things related to Xiao Shan."
I just feel embarrassed by what he thinks is his deep affection.
I immediately interrupted him: "Xiao Feng, this fish is delicious, come and try it!"
After dinner, everyone gave each other birthday presents.
However, they learned about it in a hurry, so Mingsi and Mingyuan could only give him some of their own belongings.
The bracelet Mingsi gave was the peace bracelet she had obtained from the temple before. Although it was not worth much, it was blessed, and Mingsi thought it was a good thought.
"From now on, this bracelet will protect Xiaofeng and keep him safe!"
Mingyuan gave Che Xiaofeng an intelligent robot as a toy.
I didn't accept the gift Yan Meng prepared and took out a jade pendant.
I bought this jade pendant when Lu Zhiyuan and I got married. I thought that when we have children in the future, I can wear it on them. My hope is the same as Mingsi's, I hope the child will be safe and sound.
It’s a pity that the child is not destined to be with me, so I will give him to Che Xiaofeng.
I hung the jade pendant around Che Xiaofeng's neck and told him earnestly, "Xiaofeng, no matter what happens, only a righteous heart can make everything go smoothly. Jade nourishes people, and people's character also affects jade. Don't let me down."
Che Xiaofeng nodded heavily, probably because he took my words to heart.
Yan Meng presented a gift, a beautiful watch suitable for a child of this age.
When he saw the watch, Che Xiaofeng did not show any surprise. He just took it and thanked him politely.
Che Xiaofeng has always been very polite, but Yan Meng's perfunctory and cold attitude made me feel that he was a little weird today.
Maybe it’s because the gift is so valuable that you don’t know what to say?
And I felt that although he was very happy today, he still lacked the excitement of a child celebrating his birthday.
Perhaps it is because of his family that he has a calm personality that is not appropriate for his age.
After dinner, Che Xiaofeng volunteered to help clean up, and I sent Yan Meng out of the villa.
Yan Meng looked at me with concern and suddenly asked, "How is your illness lately? Has it recurred?"
"Occasionally." I replied perfunctorily, not wanting to talk about this topic.
