Brother Wen played outside for a long time, running from west to east in the morning and from east to west in the afternoon.

It wasn't until he saw an old woman selling flowers walking towards him carrying a basket with flower branches on her back that Brother Wen seemed to have thought of something. He ran up and pointed at the remaining plum blossoms and asked, "Are the flowers still for sale?"

The old woman was slightly hunched over, and the older she looked, the shorter she got. She raised her eyes and saw a little doll carved in pink and jade standing in front of her. She said awkwardly: "They sell it, they sell it, but these ones are not very good. I want them."

Don’t you want me to buy it tomorrow?”

The old woman also heard that people in the city were willing to buy flowers, so she took a basket and went to the city to try to sell them.

She didn't know exactly which street or alley it was, but she had sold most of the flowers from morning to night.

Brother Wen said: "No, just these few. I liked them very much and bought them all!"

He had just saved a lot of New Year's money, and he proudly counted out the money from his pocket and gave it to the old woman. He then strolled back to meet Xie Dou and others with a few plum blossoms in their hands that looked a little shabby.

The old woman looked at the empty backpack, then touched the money bag sewn close to her body. Her hunched body seemed to be filled with vitality all of a sudden, and she couldn't wait to leave the city and go home while it was still early.

When Xie Dou saw Brother Wen running over with flowers in his arms, he commented honestly and honestly: "This flower is not pretty."

Brother Wen said with great interest: "It just needs to be ugly. I saw an ugly vase at Qiu Shangshu's house last time. It was so gray and ugly. The ugly vase paired with ugly flowers must be very good!"

After Brother Wen finished talking about his "good intentions", he asked others if they wanted to go to Lao Qiu's house together.

As soon as they heard the words "Qiu Shangshu", all the children immediately shook their heads like rattles. Only Xie Dou said that he could accompany Brother Wen.

There is no way, there is nothing in Lao Qiu's house, only a room full of books and a serious old man with a foul face.

Whether it's books or Lao Qiu, they are the things that children of this age are least willing to encounter.

It is even more impossible for them to come to the door on their own initiative!

Those who usually go to Lao Qiu's house to study with Brother Wen are also the group of young men who are about the same age as Li Zhaoxian and others.

Brother Wen never forced himself on others, so he went to Qiu Shangshu's house with Xie Dou to deliver flowers.

Before he even entered the door, Brother Wen could faintly smell the aroma of dim sum cakes.

He opened his eyes wide and sniffed in disbelief. After confirming that he smelled correctly, he immediately dropped Xie Dou and ran inside with a hiss.

Okay, usually no matter how hard he teases Lao Qiu, he refuses to make him cakes. Now that the Chinese New Year is here and his children and grandchildren have come back, Lao Qiu goes behind his back to make cakes for them!

It’s not a kiss, it’s just different!

Everyone in the Qiu family had long regarded Brother Wen as one of their own, and when they saw Brother Wen running in, they did not stop him, and allowed Brother Wen to go to find Qiu Junxingshi to question him.

As soon as Qiu Jun's son took the steamed pancakes out of the pan, he saw a little carrot head running in and looking at his father angrily, his eyes full of accusations.

Qiu Jun's son immediately recognized him. Isn't this the boy from the Wang family who always comes to study at their house?

Why does this kid look like this?

Brother Wen didn't care how others looked at him, he jumped directly in front of Qiu Jun and condemned: "You secretly made cakes behind my back!"

Qiu Jun glanced at Brother Wen and saw that Brother Wen was so angry that tears were almost coming from the corners of his eyes. He said angrily: "I don't know whose birthday it is today."

When Brother Wen heard this, his tears immediately disappeared without a trace.

Whose birthday is today?

Today is his birthday!

It’s right that he is four years old!

Brother Wen's eyes lit up and he asked happily: "Really? Did you make it for me?"

Qiu Jun was too lazy to talk to him anymore.

Following the two Qiu brothers who had been busy all afternoon: "..."

Good guys, I thought daddy was making cakes specially for them to eat, but it turned out that he was indeed making cakes specially for them, but not for them!

The two brothers were holding the freshly baked pancakes in their hands, feeling very complicated.

Alas, the cake I really wanted to eat no longer smells so good.

But thinking about their father's attitude towards them in the past, the brothers quickly thought about it again.

You must know that when they came back during the Lantern Festival the year before last, they only exchanged a few words, but their father impatiently went out to look at the lanterns, and refused to let them follow him, telling them to go and see it on their own!

Forget it, just eat it if you can, no matter who it is made for.

I just don’t know how this boy from the Wang family pleases their father so much!

Brother Wen felt the complicated looks in the Qiu brothers' eyes, and the initial anger was completely gone.

He held up the flowers he was holding and showed them to Qiu Jun: "I just saw an old woman selling flowers, and there were only a few left. The ugly bottle looked very suitable for you, so I bought them for you!"

Qiu Jun: “…………”

Qiu Jun knew almost immediately which ugly bottle Brother Wen was talking about, and said dissatisfiedly: "What is an ugly bottle? It's obviously simple and elegant."

Many years ago, a friend gave him an earthenware bottle of wine. After drinking the wine, he felt that the earthenware bottle was full of ancient charm, so he put it in his study and planted some seasonal flowers.

This guy is quite good. When he first saw him, he said "he's so ugly". When he saw him later, he said "he's a bit ugly, but after looking at him for a long time, he's quite pleasing to the eye". Now he even calls him "ugly bottle".

This is really unreasonable!

It's enough to have this kind of thing ready-made. Do we have to spend money to buy those extremely expensive cultural vases?

If you have that spare money, you might as well buy a few more books.

Brother Wen was thinking about eating the cake, and didn't care about Qiu Jun's face. He went straight to look for the ugly bottle with the flowers in his arms.

It happened to be winter, so Qiu Jun didn't arrange flowers inside, so he inserted the plum branches he bought one by one.

Plum blossoms look beautiful no matter how they are arranged. Although the flowers he bought are not many, they are more beautiful because of their unique postures and twisted branches. When placed in a slightly arranged position, they really complement the pottery vase.

This clumsy and odd combination is particularly pleasing to the eye when placed on the desk.

Brother Wen is very satisfied.

Let’s just say, ugly flowers and ugly bottles are a perfect match!

Brother Wen and Ma Liu arranged the flowers and went to wash his hands and prepare to eat the cake.

Xie Dou was already waiting at the table. When he saw Brother Wen again, he couldn't help complaining: "Why did you run away suddenly just now?"

Brother Wen leaned over and whispered to Xie Dou: "Don't you smell the aroma of cakes and feel that Qiu Shangshu is secretly making cakes behind our backs?"

The Qiu brothers: “…………”

You can keep your voice down when you whisper, we all heard it!

Eat the bread, eat the bread, don't add salt to our wounds arrogantly!

Fortunately, the two children, Brother Wen and Xie Dou, didn't murmur for too long because of the good cakes, and soon started to eat them happily.

After a while, the pancakes made by Lao Qiu were still soft and delicious!

Brother Wen thought about when he would eat it next time, and couldn't help but eat until his belly became round.

During the Chinese New Year, there were so many Lao Qiu family members. No matter how shameless Brother Wen was, he was too embarrassed to even eat and take away the cakes, so he had to walk home with a belly full of Shangshu cakes. He happily shared with his father that Qiu Jun specially made birthday cakes for him. .

Lao Qiu has a cold face and a kind heart, and he is very kind to people!

Wang Hua: “…………”

Really? He didn't believe it.

Wang Huadao: "Didn't you start learning to compose poetry? Why don't you write a poem to commemorate such a great thing?"

How can I show off to him as a father after eating the cake? Of course I have to write it into a poem and show it to Xie Qian, Li Dongyang, and other relatives and friends.

Also, does the old man have to visit during the Chinese New Year? If he can bring a new poem written by his four-year-old grandson, there will be many topics!

Brother Wen did not want to be fooled by his father, and refused very smartly: "I haven't even memorized the rhymes, how can I write random poems? I haven't learned to walk, so I can't just run!"

Wang Huale said: "I don't know who can't help but learn to write after reading a few other people's poems."

Brother Wen: “…………”

Suddenly I remembered the incident where my virgin poem was leaked by Xie Doudou.

Damn it, it’s really hard to look back on the past!

Wang Sansui, Wang Sansui, why are you so stupid!

Fortunately, he is now four years old!

What does what Wang Sansui did have to do with Wang Sisui?

Anyway, having finished showing off the birthday cake, Brother Wen ran away grumbling to save his father from continuing to dig into Wang Sansui's dark history in person.

Wang Hua didn't care, he just fished for Brother Wen casually. It didn't matter whether the boy took the bait or not.

It is said that a son is better than his father, and that is absolutely true.

Wang Hua just mentioned that, and Brother Wen thought about it more and more after he went back.

Although his father had ulterior motives, the advice he gave was really good!

Such a good Lao Qiu deserves to be known to everyone!

Of course, the most important thing is to let everyone know that he is Lao Qiu’s favorite cub!
