Chapter 248 Making a Wish
"Wow!" Juanjuan looked at the beautiful double-layer cake on the cart, swallowed unconsciously, and never took his eyes off it.
"So beautiful!" Si Jinchen exclaimed as he stood beside her and looked at the cake.
"Light the candles for the two children." Yan Anqing rarely had a smile on his face.
The housekeeper took out a candle and put it on it. They hoped that both children would be as carefree as one-year-old children and did not want them to grow up.
So they discussed it and decided to light a candle.
"You have to make three wishes!" Si Ning had the candles lit and walked to the two children and spoke softly.
"Aunt, what is a wish?" Juanjuan looked at her puzzled.
"It's something that hasn't been realized now but can be realized in the future." Si Ning explained in words she could understand.
"Juanjuan has never made a wish on his birthday before. Can we make one together?" Juanjuan looked at her expectantly.
This way she can make lots of wishes.
Si Ning was almost at a loss for words after hearing her question. Is it possible to make a wish like this?
"Of course you can, Juanjuan, just add all the wishes you haven't made before." Siming walked over to her, squatted down, and touched her little head.
Juanjuan smiled happily and turned to look at Si Jinchen: "Brother can also make many wishes."
Si Jinchen didn't want to make so many wishes, but after hearing Juanjuan say that, he felt it was okay: "Okay!"
"Make a wish!" Siming touched the two children's heads.
The two children closed their eyes and opened and closed their mouths, but no one knew what they were saying.
By the time they finished making their wishes, half of the candles on the cake were already burned.
"Blow out the candles quickly!" Mrs. Si said hurriedly when she saw the two children open their eyes.
The two children puffed out their cheeks and blew on the candles.
The flame on the candle flickered and went out, and a wisp of blue smoke rose.
Xiao Zhang and the others turned on the lights again.
"Let's eat first and come back to make the cake later." Aunt Wu smiled and invited everyone to the restaurant for dinner.
"Wait." Juanjuan suddenly called everyone.
"Juanjuan, what's wrong?" Old Madam Si looked at her with confusion.
I only saw Juanjuan running to the table outside in the hall and bringing back a photo frame.
She placed the photo frame next to the cake and turned to look at the housekeeper: "Grandpa Housekeeper, Mom hasn't blown out the candles or made a wish yet."
Everyone was stunned, their eyes a little sore.
Siming's eyes were red. He bent down and looked at Juanjuan: "Mom went to a very far place. She can't blow out the candles or make wishes."
"Dad, of course! Dad can help Mom blow out the candles and make a wish. She will definitely be very happy." Juanjuan looked at him seriously.
"Light the candles!" Mrs. Si said to the housekeeper.
The butler nodded, took out another candle, and lit it on the cake.
Xiao Zhang turned off the light again.
"A Ming, today is Wan Ru's birthday too. Please make a wish and blow out the candles on her behalf! She hasn't had a birthday in years. Today is her first time celebrating her birthday with her two children. She will definitely be very happy."
Old Madam Si looked at Si Ming with a smile.
"Okay." Siming walked to the cake, closed his eyes, made a wish and blew out the candles.
The lights in the living room came on again, but everyone silently wiped away the tears from their eyes before the lights came on.
Siming took the two children's hands and walked towards the restaurant.
What Aunt Wu cooked today were all their favorite foods, which made the two children very happy.
The restaurant was particularly busy today. This was the first birthday for the two children, so the family did not invite anyone else.
Even the Pitt family was not invited, only the two children's teachers and Liu Chengan's family were invited.
I just don’t know how Chen Yongnian, Pete and some other people who were close to him knew about it. While they were having dinner, they received quite a few gifts.
They were all the same as those prepared by the Governor's Mansion, six copies for Si Jinchen and four copies for Juanjuan, exactly the same as the ages of the two children.
Yan Anqing also prepared gifts for the two children, but they were all books.
Si Jinchen was happy when he received it, but Juanjuan frowned when he received it.
"See, I told you that Juanjuan was going to be worried." When Jian Menglan saw that Juanjuan's face was wrinkled like a little bun, she looked at Yan Anqing.
"As my student, how could you not like reading?" Yan Anqing refused to admit that Juanjuan didn't like it.
Jian Menglan didn't even bother to pay attention to him. This stubborn old man was stubborn.
Juanjuan looked at the two of them holding the book and immediately laughed: "Juanjuan likes it very much. Brother can tell her a story now."
Yan Anqing was dumbfounded when he heard this. After all this time, the book finally fell into Si Jinchen's hands.
Si Jinchen's face was full of smiles: "Then I will help Juanjuan keep it, and when Juanjuan wants to listen, I will read it to you."
"Okay!" Juanjuan handed the book very quickly.
"Hahaha!" Jian Menglan and the others didn't expect the final result to be like this, but they all laughed happily.
"That's good. It's good for Achen to learn more!" Yan Anqing tried hard to maintain his facial expression.
Madam Si and the others all had smiles on their faces. They all knew that he was the kind of person who would rather save face than suffer in vain, but they didn't intend to expose him.
We had a very enjoyable meal, and we had a very happy time listening to the three children's childish chatter.
After dinner, Juanjuan and Si Jinchen sat among the gifts that were taller than them and began to open their birthday presents.
Although Liu Yueya's family was not favored in the Liu family in the past, she never missed her birthday.
Lin Jingqiu and Liu Chengan prepared it carefully every time.
They were not favored before, and few people were willing to associate with them, but they never wronged Liu Yueya. They tried their best to give her the best.
So it's not without reason that Liu Yueya inherited Liu Cheng'an's mouth. It's just that some people speak so unpleasantly that she developed this habit over time.
She just wanted to protect the most important person to her, and now she also wanted to protect her younger brother and sister.
In addition to the gifts prepared by Liu Cheng'an and Lin Jingqiu, she also selected gifts for them herself.
Juanjuan looked at the beautiful music box in her hand and said, "Wow! It's so beautiful, and it can even sing."
"If you put this little figure on it, she will dance!" Liu Yueya took out a little figure from the music box and put it on it.
Juanjuan watched the little man really dance on it and said, "Thank you, Sister Yueya. Juanjuan likes it very much."
Liu Yueya handed Si Jinchen the gift again and said, "I don't know what you like, so I just bought it casually."
Si Jinchen took the gift box she handed over with a smile, opened the outer packaging, and saw an exquisite box.
When he saw the box, his eyes were full of smiles. Just by looking at the box, you could tell that it was not a casual purchase.
When I opened the box, I saw a Western telescope inside. And it was not an ordinary telescope but the best Zeiss telescope.
