Reborn 1960之巧女当家

Chapter 251 New Year's Eve
Xia Nuan finished the translation work the day before New Year's Day, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially entered the holiday state.

Xia Nuan can take all the three days off on New Year's Day, because she is not yet an important person, so it doesn't matter if she is not in the department. When she is promoted or sent out in the future, there will be no such good things .

In Yan Yu's words, "Uneasy days are ahead!"

But Xia Nuan has a big heart, no matter how much it is, let's enjoy the holidays now.

The day of the dinner party agreed with the family is tonight.

Next to the store near Xia Nuan's third brother's house, there is a restaurant with delicious food, and the location is big enough, so everyone discussed it and decided on the location there.

Today's dinner included not only the third brother and the third sister-in-law, Wang Ximei, but also Xia Nuan's brothers, and Xia Nuan's brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

The parents of the third brother and the third sister-in-law are not in city B, so they have a New Year's Eve dinner with everyone today, and it's also a fun.

In the evening, we made a phone call to meet at the third brother's store at seven o'clock in the evening, and then go to the restaurant for dinner together.

When I went out for dinner at night, the weather was very cold and the north wind was blowing.

Chu Tianling looked at the weather outside, and suggested to Xia Nuan that it is better to take a bus there.

Baozi's throat has been uncomfortable for the past two days, and Xia Nuan was worried about going to a place with so many people today, fearing that Baozi would get infected again.

He also agreed to take the bus.

Xia Nuan told Chu Tianling while dressing Baozi.

"Brother Tianling, put some change in the pocket of my coat. We'll get on the train and buy tickets later."

As if remembering something, he continued.

"Let's bring some money as well. Everyone is happy today. Let's buy two bottles of wine and bring them along to help them have fun."

Chu Tianling and Xia Nuan thought about going together, so they took out the money in their pockets, prepared to go.

When Chu Tianling came out of the room, he saw that Xia Nuan had put his clothes on the shoe cabinet, and he had been wrapped into a small rice dumpling, our steamed stuffed bun kid.

There is no way, the weather outside is cold, Xia Nuan is really afraid that Baozi will catch a cold.

But it wasn't snowing outside yet, seeing Xia Nuan, she took the scarf to wrap Baozi's face completely.

Chu Tianling hurried over to stop it.

"It's not even nine cold days yet. It's windy outside, and there isn't even a single snowflake. If you cover him so tightly now, if it gets cold later, you won't be able to stand it."

It was also the first time for Xia Nuan to bring up a child. When she was a child, she didn't know anything about the experience of her brothers taking care of her.

But regarding physical health and how to wear clothes, Xia Nuan still felt that Chu Tianling, who was a soldier, had more say.

After all, there is a specialization in the art industry.

Xia Nuan is in charge of the child's education, and Chu Tianling can be responsible for the child's physical health.

After all, boys should not be too squeamish, or they will get sick every three days, which will make both parents and children suffer.

After everyone was fully dressed, the family of three set off together.

Baozi is very happy today, because he can see the eldest uncle, the second uncle and the younger uncle who haven't seen for a long time.

What child doesn't like the feeling of being loved by everyone?
More importantly, being able to meet the third uncle who can make pastries means that there are delicious things to eat.

Xia Nuan and Chu Tianling led the bouncing buns and walked towards the bus stop together.

Uncle Santang really won't let Baozi down.

Everyone came to his shop one after another. It was the first time for the eldest brother and the second brother to come here, and they were far away before.

Came here today for a good visit.

Xia Nuan's third cousin is preparing a snack for Baozi for dinner.

But then I thought about it, there are so many of us, and it’s the festival, and we are all happy, why not just make a cake of a moderate size, and let everyone cut it up and share it?
Just do what you say, the materials are all prepared in the store, as long as you make them look good.

When Xia Nuan and his family of three arrived, everyone had already arrived.

It turned out that although Xia Nuan was the closest, she was the last to leave.The eldest brother and the second brother came early because they were afraid of being late.

The children of the eldest brother and sister-in-law and the second brother and second sister-in-law in the family have all grown up, and the youngest child is Baozi.

So when Xia Nuan and the others came, Baozi was carried around by everyone without touching the ground.

When I was young, Xia Nuan was the most favored person in my family. Everyone loved her like a "treasure in the palm of my hand" and couldn't bear her to be unhappy.

Now that everyone has grown up, Xia Nuan is no longer the "little princess" of the stars, but Xia Nuan doesn't feel unhappy at all.

After all, everyone likes her child more than her, so there is nothing to be jealous of, or else it would be a joke.

Wang Ximei was holding the bun and was unwilling to let go. Everyone was amused around the bun, but the bun boy kept his eyes fixed on the cake that the third uncle was making.

Today's cake was made in a white shape. Third cousin Xia Nuan squeezed thick cream on the outside of the cake and then spread it. On the smooth cream, squeezed a circle with colorful decorations.

Baozi was stunned, thinking that today's cake is big and beautiful.It's like nothing I've seen before.

Looking at the way Uncle San Tang made it, I found it both novel and interesting.

In fact, Xia Nuan's third cousin made the kind of birthday cream cake that we used to eat most often.

Although it is a bit greasy, it is a kind of cheerful, happy and unforgettable childhood memory.

In fact, Xia Nuan hasn't eaten this kind of cake for many years.

Back in the orphanage, none of the children knew when their birthday was.

Everyone's birthday is the date of the day that was picked up by the staff of the orphanage as their own birthday.

Xia Nuan felt embarrassed and ashamed.

She doesn't want to remember when she was picked up. In other words, she doesn't want to remember when she was abandoned. This feeling is not good at all.

Looking at everyone's birthday, they are all willing to play games together happily, and then share a small cake together, Xia Nuan feels sad and angry.

So when she became an adult and left the orphanage, she naturally didn't like birthdays.

Of course, Xia Nuan, who left the orphanage, would not even have a fake birthday for her.

Xia Nuan's growth over the years is like this, step by step, bit by bit, escaping from things she doesn't like, and gradually escaping from the expectations of herself and the world.

Staring at the cake, Xia Nuan was a little lost in thought, thinking.

"Fortunately, Baozi doesn't have to go through such pain."

"As long as my son is happy, all the suffering I have suffered is nothing."

Everyone was chatting and laughing, but no one noticed Xia Nuan's abnormality.

But Baozi's almost drooling expression made everyone laugh out loud.

The cake is quickly made, rolled up in old-fashioned foam paper, tied with a ribbon, and ready to go.

The steamed stuffed bun is so hungry that I want to eat it now.

Everyone spoiled him, so they said that they should go to the restaurant to order food now, and then they can take apart the cake for the buns and eat it after sitting down.

Xia Nuan walked over from behind, took the bun and held it in her hands.

"No need third brother." Xia Nuan said.

"Everyone has to eat for a while before they can take care of picking up the buns. Don't get used to his bad habit of making demands on the elders like this."

Xia Nuan has her own method of educating Baozi every time.

Others always think that Baozi is obedient and well-behaved all the time, so that he won't cause trouble for Xia Nuan and Chu Tianling.

In fact, they didn't know that when they caused trouble, they were taught silently by Xia Nuan.

Baozi doesn't think it's unacceptable that he can't eat cakes now, because his mother talked about it for a while, and everyone can eat it in restaurants.

Therefore, Baozi will not cry and make noise like other children, and must eat the cake at that time.

Everyone saw that Xia Nuan also looked normal, not angry at all, and Chu Tianling even brought a coat for Xia Nuan to put on.

I feel that this talented student has a way of educating children.

In fact, it's not all about Xia Nuan's way of disciplining Baozi, or restraining Baozi, but a kind of tacit understanding and trust between their mother and child.

Because during Baozi's growing up, he had the impression that his mother would do what she said.

Just like my mother said that I can eat cake for a while, then he will definitely be able to eat it later.

So Baozi will not mess around without a sense of security.

As for Chu Tianling, he would never interfere with Xia Nuan's education of Baozi.

One is because Chu Tianling actually loves Xia Nuan more than his son, and the other is because both husband and wife must stand on the same front when it comes to the education of their children.

You can't let your child feel that if you do something wrong, there will always be someone in the family who will cover me up, indulge me, and spoil me.

Such a child will never really correct his mistakes.

When Baozi was making trouble for no reason, Xia Nuan and Chu Tianling were "unanimously confronting the enemy", although it was not true, but that was what it meant.

This is what makes Baozi look more lovable than children of the same age.

How can a child who is not a bear child be unlikable?
After closing the store door and checking the doors, windows and electrical appliances, everyone walked towards the small restaurant together.

The neighborhood where Xia Nuan used to go to school had a lot of high-quality and cheap restaurants because of the large number of students and the high turnover of people.

My classmates, it is a good choice to have a meal together, go out to catch up on the past, and have fun. These places are all good choices.

The restaurant you went to this time has two separate rooms inside, which are what we usually call a box and the outside is the lobby.

Because Xia Nuan's family has a large number, everyone ate in the box inside today.

Xia Nuan is also familiar with these bosses because she is often around here.

After greeting each other with "Long time no see", everyone was led by the waiter and walked slowly into the box.

In fact, on the way here, Chu Tianling "left behind" for a while, just to secretly complete the task assigned by Xia Nuan - to buy wine.

When everyone realized where they were looking for Chu Tianling, he had already returned with two bottles of wine.

Everyone laughed at him for coming.

I am happy today, and the men at home are all pouring wine.Because at this time, family members who haven't driven yet, everyone is drinking to their heart's content.

Xia Nuan and Wang Ximei ate vegetables, drank tea, and coaxed the buns together.

But the cake made by the third brother has won unanimous praise from everyone.

"It's no wonder that the third child can make a career. As far as this skill is concerned, whoever loves it will not like it!"

The eldest brother drank a little too much today, and he was happy at the banquet, so he drank more wine.

The sister-in-law was afraid that the elder brother drank too much, so she patted the hand of the elder brother who was still pouring the wine, a little angrily.

Xia Nuan didn't drink any alcohol today, but seeing her family members around and gathering happily, she felt a little drunk herself, and it's not bad to be erratic.
