After hanging around at home for a few days, it was already December.
December 4th, which is the first day of the winter month this year, is a very important day.
In preparation for this day, Chen Wang rode his bike to the city two days in advance, bought some things and made some preparations.
That morning, Chen Wang went out to invite Chen Dazhuang's family, and Lin Xiuqin also invited several sisters with whom she had a good relationship, and asked them to come to their house for dinner in the evening.
That’s right, today is Lin Xiuqin’s 23rd birthday.
On this day last year, Chen Wang had just traveled through time and less than a month ago, and he still hadn't figured out when his wife's birthday was.
The key point is that Lin Xiuqin, like most ordinary people these days, doesn't care about her birthday at all. She thinks there is no need to celebrate it specially, so she didn't tell him.
It was not until he returned to the Lin family with his wife during the Chinese New Year and they were chatting at the dinner table that Chen Wang realized he had neglected his wife's birthday.
Therefore, Chen Wang decided to give his wife a good birthday this year to make up for it.
The weather is getting cold, and it's a birthday celebration. There's nothing better than getting together to eat hotpot and drink some wine.
After two o'clock in the afternoon, the invited guests arrived one after another.
Chen Dazhuang's family of three, Lin Xiuqin's two good friends, and Erniu who was invited by the little girl.
The little girl also invited Erniu's parents, but when they learned that today was Lin Xiuqin's birthday, they both declined and did not come.
With everyone helping out, the pot base and ingredients were quickly ready.
Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang moved out two round tables and put them together, prepared two hot pot bases, spicy and tomato, and placed various ingredients around them.
Beer, soda, and several bottles of good liquor were also placed on the table.
"It smells so good, brother, when can we eat it?"
The little girl and Erniu were already sitting there, waiting eagerly.
"Wait a minute, what's the hurry?"
Chen Wang glared at her unhappily and put down the plate of cut meat in his hand.
In addition to some ingredients at home, he went to town to buy some yesterday, including vegetables and meat. At this time, Lin Xiuqin and her two friends were in the kitchen preparing the ingredients together.
"Awang, I'm here."
A familiar female voice came.
Chen Wang looked in the direction of the mansion's gate and saw Comrade Xiao Xu walking towards him with a cream cake in his hand and a smile on his face.
He went to town yesterday and invited Xu Meijuan to attend the birthday party, and asked her to bring the birthday cake he had ordered.
"Welcome, welcome."
"I'm not late, am I?"
"No, no, you're here just in time. Come and sit down!"
Chen Wang greeted with a smile.
“Wow, big cake!”
When the little girl saw the cake in her hand, her eyes suddenly lit up.
The second girl next to her was a little calmer, but her big eyes were still sparkling.
For rural children these days, birthday cake is a beautiful thing that only exists in their imagination.
"Hehe...Xiaoyu, do you want to eat?"
Xu Meijuan raised the cake box in her hand a little higher.
The little girl nodded her head rapidly, with the words "I want to eat" written all over her face.
Xu Meijuan walked over with a smile, put the cake on the table, and said to the two little girls, "Be patient, you can eat it if your brother says you can."
After saying that, seeing Yan Yulan helping to hold the little guy nearby, Xu Meijuan went over to tease the little guy.
"Wife, stop being busy and come out to eat cake."
Chen Wang shouted towards the kitchen.
Soon, Lin Xiuqin and her two friends walked out of the kitchen, each carrying two plates of food.
"Wow, Xiuqin, Awang even prepared a cake for you, how thoughtful!"
"Yeah, I haven't even eaten the cake yet, Xiuqin, Awang is so good to you!"
When her two good friends saw the cake on the table, they were so envious that they couldn't express it in words.
Lin Xiuqin's pretty face also blossomed into a bright smile, with a slight blush on her face, obviously a little shy.
The three of them came to the dining table and put down the dishes, and everyone gathered around.
"Brother, can we start?"
The little girl asked impatiently.
Chen Wang turned his head and looked in the direction of the mansion gate again, his expression somewhat conflicted.
"What? Is there anyone else?"
Chen Dazhuang asked curiously.
Lin Xiuqin also made a gesture, indicating that if there were other people, they should wait a little longer.
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine came from outside.
"Someone is coming."
Chen Wang smiled brightly.
"And you drove here? Who is it?"
Xu Meijuan asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"Someone you know very well!"
Chen Wang smiled at her meaningfully.
"I am familiar with it?"
Xu Meijuan was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have guessed who it was, and asked in surprise: "You even went to invite him?"
"I went to the city the day before yesterday. Let's not talk about it now. I'll go out and pick him up."
Chen Wang turned around and walked away quickly.
Outside the courtyard, a handsome young man got out of a Citroen and straightened his shirt with a smile.
Who else could it be but Qin Weidong?
There were many villagers watching around, and many children were staring at the car with curiosity on their faces.
Tractors are considered rare these days, let alone such an exquisite car. Many people in the village have never seen one.
"Awang, come out and help."
Qin Weidong shouted towards the yard, then walked around to the back of the car and opened the trunk.
“Here it comes!!”
Chen Wang’s response was heard.
Soon, he ran out of the yard.
