The next morning, Cheng Chen woke up and touched the gift next to his pillow, smiling very sweetly. Over the years, Wang Yu would put the gift aside in the morning on his birthday. No matter what was inside, Cheng Chen would be happy all day just by seeing the box when he opened his eyes.
When Wang Yu came in from outside, he saw Cheng Chen sitting on the bed with a gift box in his hand and a silly smile on his face. His hair was a little messy from waking up. Wang Yu just thought it was cute and went forward to tidy it up for him. "Are you awake?"
"Yes, husband." Cheng Chen put down the box, walked forward, put his arms around Wang Yu's waist, and buried his head in his arms.
Wang Yu's heart melted when he saw his coquettish look. He sat down, hugged him and kissed the corner of his mouth, "Why are you still acting like a coquettish child?"
Cheng Chen returned the kiss and said, "I like my husband."
"I like my husband. Come, let me kiss you."
He said this without caring whether Cheng Chen agreed or not, and only let go after the kiss was so severe that the person was out of breath.
Cheng Chen blushed and bit Wang Yu, saying dissatisfiedly, "You haven't even cleaned your teeth."
"My husband doesn't mind." She touched the bitten area again and said, "Your teeth are really sharp. I'll deal with you tonight."
Cheng Chen knew exactly what Wang Yu meant. He sat up and was about to get out of bed, but then he remembered that he hadn't looked at his birthday present yet. He took out the box and opened it. It turned out to be a coral cherry bracelet. He looked up at Wang Yu and asked, "Did you find this bracelet?"
Wang Yu took out the bracelet and put it on him. "No, I had it remade. Is it exactly the same?"
"Well, thank you, husband." Cheng Chen looked carefully at the coral cherry on her wrist. It was indeed exactly the same. She also knew that her husband must have put a lot of thought into it, and she was touched.
Wang Yu kissed his happy face and said, "Achen, just thank me properly tonight."
Cheng Chen happily and shyly took off the bracelet and put it in the box. He got up and ignored Wang Yu. This man has always been like this over the years, always liking to tease him.
There were not many people at the birthday party, just Wang Yu, Cheng Chen and their family of three, and Zheng Shurong and Jianan. Ever since the two of them confirmed their feelings, Zheng Shu would inexplicably smile foolishly every day, and Wang Yu couldn't help but notice it.
After asking, I learned that Zheng Shu finally saw the light on New Year's Day. He had been released from slavery as early as in Dingzhou. Over the years, the two of them were more like friends than master and servant. I was happy for him to know that he had caught the girl he loved.
The two planned to find an auspicious day to get married after the New Year. Wang Yu also asked them whether they wanted to continue working in the mansion. They were both commoners, so Wang Yu would not stop them if they wanted to go out and live their own lives.
But Zheng Shu and Rong Jianan decided to work in the mansion. Zheng Shu originally had a monthly salary, and he also gave Shu Xiu the money to ask Rong Jianan to teach Erbao to play the piano. The income of the two was considerable.
This was a good idea, so Wang Yu planned to buy a small house near the government office as a wedding gift for them. After all, it would be more comfortable for a newlywed couple to live alone.
We’ll talk about these things later. Today is Cheng Chen’s birthday.
"Happy birthday, Dad."
Erbao knows about birthdays. Birthdays have delicious treats, like the cake on the table. He rarely eats it, and his dad doesn't buy it for him often. His dad says eating too much sweet food will damage his teeth, and cake should be eaten on birthdays.
So when I knew it was my father’s birthday, I was looking forward to it.
"Dad, eat cake."
Cheng Chen touched the little hair on his head. He had been growing his hair since he was three years old. Erbao didn't have much hair, so he tied it into two small buns and tied them up with red ropes. It was very cute. He smiled and said, "I know you're craving cake, but you have to eat your meal before you can eat cake."
If he starts eating cake, he can't stop. He can't eat rice at all. He likes to eat snacks and fruits very much.
After hearing what his father said, Erbao nodded and ate his meal obediently. After the meal, Cheng Chen cut a small piece of cake for him.
Zheng Shu and Rong Jianan's wedding date was set for February 26th. The wedding ceremony was simple. The day before, Cheng Chen brought Erbao to the house to help with the decoration. No matter how simple it was, red paper wedding characters and dragon and phoenix candles were required. The wedding quilt was also sewn by Cheng Chen for the two of them, and the wedding dress was sewn by Rong Jianan himself.
Although Cheng Chen didn't have to decorate the bridal room himself, Erbao was very active and he really liked putting these things up, so Erbao passed them to Cheng Chen and he put them up one by one.
"Is Uncle Nan getting married?"
Cheng Chen pasted the "囍" character and nodded, "Yes, I'm going to marry your Uncle Zheng."
"Does marriage mean living together like Daddy and Grandfather? Does marriage mean having children?"
Cheng Chen paused. Who had told him that? "Who told you that you have to have children after getting married?"
In fact, he still didn't quite understand what marriage meant. He tilted his head and said, "These past few days, everyone in the mansion has been saying that Uncle Nan is getting married. So I asked Aji, what is marriage?"
Aji is the servant who takes care of Erbao. He was bought into the mansion when he was in Dingzhou. What he said is true.
"Well, getting married means that two people will live together and have children, just like daddy and daddy gave birth to you and your brother."
Cheng Chen didn't refuse to tell him just because he was a child, but still explained it to him clearly.
"You can kiss, right? A few days ago, I saw Uncle Zheng kissing Uncle Nan, just like Daddy kissing Daddy."
······
I told my husband countless times not to kiss him in front of the child, but he didn't listen. Now the child will sneak a peek at others kissing.
Of course, she didn't peek on purpose, she must have seen it accidentally. After all, her husband told her that the old tree Zheng Shu was in bloom, and she was very happy these days, so she must have kissed Nan Ge'er regardless of the occasion.
"Well, children shouldn't watch adults kissing. You should avoid it if you see it in the future."
