Chapter 105 Birthday
After Gu Jinyan returned to his home, he simply washed up and lay down.
Until I fell asleep, the corners of my mouth were raised up all the time. It feels so good to be waited for by someone.
After Gu Jinyan returned to work, he naturally heard about Ye Qian's situation. Knowing that the Zhang mother and son had been taken away by the Public Security Bureau, he began to intervene.
If they have time to cause trouble, it means they are idle. If they are busy, they don’t have time to cause trouble, so they just do the dirtiest and most tiring work.
A few days later.
At noon in the cafeteria, Li Yue told herself that Zhang's mother and son were assigned to sweep the toilet.
Ye Qian didn't react for a moment: "Aren't the ones who clean toilets capitalists? Why are they cleaning them too?"
Li Yue explained: "It's okay to punish people who have made mistakes this way."
Ye Qian pouted after hearing this: "Look at this guy, he doesn't want to do a good job, doesn't want to take a good salary, and insists on cleaning toilets. There's really nothing we can do about him."
Li Yue saw Ye Qian taking advantage of him and acting cute, and laughed, "You."
…
It's October again, and winter arrived overnight. Ye Qian also put on thick clothes.
Every year at this time, Ye Qian knows that her birthday is approaching. This year, this body will be 17 years old. Li Yue clamors to celebrate her birthday with Ye Qian, but Ye Qian is a person who values love over friendship. She can't spend the evening with her as she still has to spend it with Gu Jinyan. So Li Yue compromises and has lunch with Ye Qian.
During lunch, Ye Qian rewarded the well-behaved Li Yue with a big chicken leg.
The chicken legs were from later times, New Orleans style, which you can't get here. The other people in the cafeteria were drooling at the smell.
When she got off work in the afternoon, Ye Qian took out the cream cake she had prepared long ago and planned to share it with Gu Jinyan.
Gu Jinyan also knew about Ye Qian's birthday two days ago. His secretary found out about this when he heard Li Yue was going to celebrate Ye Qian's birthday while eating in the cafeteria.
It would be fine if Gu Jinyan didn’t know, but now that he was about to find out, he had to be prepared for etiquette.
I went to the Overseas Chinese Remittance Store at noon yesterday and bought a woolen coat for Ye Qian. I specially chose pink. Don’t girls like these pink and tender colors? Ye Qian is so young, she will definitely like this kind of coat. It just so happens that I have Overseas Chinese Remittance Coupons in my hand.
After returning home, Ye Qian took out two packets of semi-finished ginseng glutinous rice chicken soup from the space. This semi-finished product can be eaten directly after being cooked, just one for each person. Then she cooked some noodles and added them to the chicken soup. The chicken was too small and it would definitely not be enough.
Chicken soup alone is not enough, so I prepared a few side dishes, such as stir-fried cucumbers and spicy and sour cabbage.
As soon as Ye Qian took out the materials, she heard Gu Jinyan knocking on the door and hurried over to open it.
After opening the door, Ye Qian saw a package in Gu Jinyan's hand. While she was still wondering if it was a gift for her, Gu Jinyan directly gave her the package.
"It's your birthday today, right? This is a birthday present."
It turned out to be for her. Ye Qian was overjoyed: "Well, thank you. I'll cook first and open it later. My hands are too dirty."
Gu Jinyan nodded: "Okay."
Ye Qian put the things on the sofa, turned around and went to the kitchen to cook today's meal.
Ye Qian had already poured the chicken soup into the pot, so she just needed to heat it up. Gu Jinyan also sat outside the kitchen waiting for Ye Qian so that she could serve the dishes.
Today’s recipe is simple and can be made in no time.
Gu Jinyan ate today's meal and found it to be so delicious. Why did Ye Qian's family always have such good food? She ate meat every day but didn't gain weight at all. She was indeed still young.
Gu Jinyan thought about his age again and wondered if he would gain weight if he ate too much.
Ye Qian also thought that today's food was delicious and really suited her taste. She thought it would be even better if some Korean kimchi could be added.
The two of them finished their dinner happily. After Gu Jinyan went to wash the dishes, Ye Qian went to open the gifts.
As soon as I opened the package, damn, isn’t this deathly Barbie pink?
What does this mean? This is the 1960s, why does this color appear? Why can't men of any era escape the deadly Barbie pink?
Ye Qian was a little hesitant to open it. She hoped it wasn't clothes. She thought to herself as she shook the package in her hand.
After shaking it open, Ye Qian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because it was just a piece of clothing. You could tell at a glance that it was not cheap, and the style was also very nice, but the color was just right.
Gu Jinyan had also finished washing the dishes and walked in. Seeing Ye Qian holding the dress in her hand, her face looked a little uncertain, so she asked, "Don't you like it?"
Ye Qian heard Gu Jinyan's voice asking her if she liked it, and she immediately smiled: "I like it."
Ye Qian was a little confused about the color, so she continued to ask, "I've been to the department store before, and I haven't seen such bright colors."
When Gu Jinyan heard Ye Qian specifically mention the color, he thought she liked it: "I didn't buy it at the department store. The color there is too dark. I bought it at the Overseas Remittance Store. The color there is brighter and more suitable for a girl of your age."
Ye Qian was shocked after hearing this: "I'm not a little girl, I turned 17 today."
Hateful age.
Gu Jinyan smiled: "Okay, not a little girl."
Ye Qian thought to herself, as expected, he just thinks I’m too young.
Ye Qian was indignant, but she put the clothes away carefully. After all, they were given to her by Gu Jinyan.
But you definitely can't wear it. It's a different era now, and the movement has just begun. If you don't keep a low profile and attract attention, wouldn't that be stupid?
Gu Jinyan wanted Ye Qian to try on the clothes, but was too embarrassed to ask. Ye Qian understood the meaning in Gu Jinyan's eyes, turned around, put the clothes on the sofa, and pulled Gu Jinyan out to eat cake, for fear that Gu Jinyan would ask her to try on the clothes, and she would be embarrassed to refuse.
Ye Qian opened the cake box and cut it into small pieces without lighting or blowing out the candles.
The cake is 8 inches, and Ye Qian specially took out a bigger one because Gu Jinyan likes sweets very much.
I made some snacks a few times and put them on the table for Gu Jinyan to eat by himself. He ate more sweets and less.
If he can't finish the cake, he can take it back and eat it slowly.
have a look.
have a look.
What a great arrangement I made. I am really Gu Jinyan’s caring and sweet little lover.
Ye Qian ate one piece and couldn't eat any more, so she gave the rest to Gu Jinyan to take back.
And Gu Jinyan really loves sweets as Ye Qian said.
Gu Jinyan finished the cake in his hand and took the rest back, feeling very happy.
This cake is so delicious, completely different from the ones I have eaten elsewhere. The cake is soft and the cream is very delicate. There is even fruit inside, which is sweet and delicious.
After returning home, Gu Jinyan couldn't help but eat another piece before he came to his senses and realized that he still didn't see Ye Qian wearing that dress.
