Gu Nian was led by her two younger sisters for a while, and then she persevered.
All around were the sounds of flowing streams, chirping insects in the grass, and croaking from the rice paddies—but no human voices.
But Gu Nian could sense that there were people around.
Just as she was about to ask if she could untie the cloth strip, her leg was grabbed, startling Gu Nian.
"read."
Upon hearing Gu Ren's voice, Gu Nian immediately lifted her foot up, and in doing so, lifted Gu Ren up as well, and then hugged him.
"Little thing, quickly untie the cloth strip for me!" Gu Nian said.
Gu Ren looked around, then reached out to untie Gu Nian's ribbon.
Gu Nian squinted for a moment, adjusted her eyes, and then looked around while holding Gu Ren.
Her two younger sisters slipped away while she was hugging Gu Ren.
She stood in the middle of a circle of firefly lanterns. Above her head was a large firefly lantern, heart-shaped, which was particularly beautiful.
With her as the center, there is a circle of firefly lanterns with a radius of about five meters. Then, there is another circle of firefly lanterns about five meters outwards, making a total of two circles, illuminating an area with a radius of ten meters.
Gu Nian smiled. Was this idea Xiao Xinxin's? It seems she really likes Yuanyuan. But why is there a heart shape on her head?
"Me, me!" Gu Ren seemed to know Gu Nian's thoughts immediately, pointed to his nose, and asked for credit.
"You!" Gu Nian pinched Gu Ren's nose.
"Read, look, look!" Gu Ren pointed to another spot.
Gu Nian looked over.
There, a Kongming lantern rose up, and then another rose up from the side, one after another.
Gu Nian held Gu Ren in her arms, her gaze following the rising Kongming lanterns. She spun around, memorizing each lantern.
My heart is filled with emotion.
No one has ever celebrated her birthday like this before.
Happy birthday! Happy birthday! Happy birthday...
Suddenly, the sound of a piano rang out by the stream, playing "Happy Birthday."
"Happy birthday to you!" Gu Si sang the first line to the accompaniment of the piano music.
"Happy birthday to you!" Gu Hui said again.
"Happy birthday to you!" the friends sang in unison.
Looking around, Gu Nian saw Sister Huihui, Sister Sisi, Enzi, Lu Zheng, Meng Meng, Xue Qianyu, and Huo Junhao.
"Ding ding ding ding ding ding!" Gu Ren hummed in her ear.
The little girl sitting by the stream playing the piano is Gu Xin's daughter, and her friends are standing next to her.
Gu Nian couldn't help but shed tears.
Gu Ren reached out his chubby little hand and wiped away her tears.
Gu Nian carried Gu Ren over and said, "What are you doing? It's so hot, my eyes are sweating from the heat!"
"Sister Niannian, it's alright. I'll give you a little gift to wipe the sweat from your eyes!" Gu Si stepped forward and handed Gu Nian a folded handkerchief.
“Sisi can embroider, but I can’t. Didn’t you say that the gold beads on your wrist with a red string look pretty? Here’s a little gold rooster for you!” Gu Hui stepped forward, stretched out her hand, and when she let go, a red string with a gold rooster about the size of her little finger strung in the middle was revealed.
Gu Nian put Gu Ren down, took the bracelet, and immediately put it on: "Thank you, Sister Huihui, thank you, Sister Sisi!"
Gu En walked over and scratched his head: "Sister Niannian, stop your eyes from sweating! Look at what I gave you, you definitely won't sweat!"
Gu Nian wiped away her tears and looked at Gu En. Gu En handed her a bunch of wildflowers: "Sister Nian, I wish you will always be as beautiful as these flowers!"
