Chapter 86 Yuanyuan's Birthday Present
Chapter 86 Yuan Yuan’s birthday gift
After going through a series of events, Lin Youxi was finally willing to have a good talk with her father about renewing their relationship. Although Youxi could not accept calling Aunt Liang her mother, she still supported her father and Aunt Liang to be together.
After getting their daughter's consent, Father Lin and Aunt Liang received the certificate in the spring of 2009. They held a sumptuous banquet at home and specially invited Mei Fang and Xia Yuan's family to have a dinner together.
The Xia family couple, Xia Xun and Teacher Yu, who did not interact much with Lin's father, also came to participate this time.
This was the first complete meeting of the three families. Six adults and four children gathered around a table to eat. As the host, Lin Youxi was very busy that day, serving tea, pouring water, and setting out the bowls and chopsticks.
Her house had always been deserted as long as she could remember. Even she herself always went to Mei Fang's house for dinner. This was the first time it was so lively.
It was rare for Mei Fang to see Yuan Yuan's father Xia Xun interact with ordinary people. He seemed very approachable and praised Aunt Liang's cooking skills.
"Sister Liang, your skills are really good. You can even keep up with the chef at the hotel I used to open."
"Dad Yuanyuan won the award. Actually, it's not my fault alone. Youxi also helped me cook a few dishes...like this braised eggplant dish, she actually made it."
"Youxi, is it so amazing? It turns out that not only are you top-notch in academics, but you also have such great cooking skills."
Lin Youxi seemed very embarrassed about Xia Xun's praise, "Actually, I learned my craft from Aunt Mei, and Aunt Liang also taught me later..."
Lin Youxi's eyes finally fell on Xia Yuan, who was looking at her with his chin in his hands, "Actually, Yuan Yuan is also very good at cooking!"
"Youxi, please don't hurt me!"
Xia Yuan shook his head helplessly, "At most, I cook better than Al Fang and my mother... and there's nothing else."
Teacher Yu likes to make some fancy dishes, but the taste is not very good. Now she is being compared by two mothers and scolded by her daughter. She seems a little embarrassed about her face.
"You kid...how can you say that about your mother?"
"That is to say, Yuan Yuan, you were not like this before. You always said that you like your mother's cooking the most, didn't you?"
"That's only limited to a few types of Coke chicken wings! And dad, you used to run a hotel. Don't you know best whether mom's cooking is delicious or not? Only dad who dotes on mom will say such things.
."
"Hahaha……"
The adults burst into laughter because of Xia Yuan's speech. Mei Lijun laughed the most exaggeratedly and foolishly, and then was pinched hard by his wife Xiang Xiaoxia.
While Mei Fang was listening to the adults chatting and eating melon, she was cooking rice with her head down. She let her sister Meiya take the fried chicken legs away from her bowl and scoop the vegetables and tofu she didn't want to eat into the bowl.
Through the fragmented conversations between adults and some situations told by Youxi, Mei Fang learned that the aunt named Liang Meijuan had an unfortunate marriage. She suffered from infertility caused by miscarriage at her ex-husband's home.
The bullying was later caused by the fact that her husband had an affair and finally couldn't bear it anymore and chose to leave the house.
Although she has experienced the hardships of life, she still faces life with a smile. Aunt Liang makes people feel very gentle and considerate.
She doesn't usually talk much, but she is very caring and caring towards Lin Youxi.
However, according to what Youxi said, she will also keep a subtle distance from Lin Youxi.
For example, she would never enter Lin Youxi's room and touch her things without her permission. The early photos of Youxi and her parents and family are still hanging in the center of the living room, and those involving Youxi's mother are still hanging in the center of the living room.
She never moves related things easily, and even cleans them carefully.
It was also in this process of maintaining distance but respecting each other that Lin Youxi and Liang Meijuan gradually began to chat and became familiar with each other.
After becoming a family member with Lin Youxi, she also started riding the electric bicycle that Lin Youxi gave to her father before. Because she worked in the logistics canteen of Baimei No. 1 Middle School, which was not far from the Experimental Middle School, she would ride it in the morning.
The car took Lin Youxi to school and then to work.
Such warm and ordinary days continued like this.
The ice and snow are melting, and spring is coming. Small towns in central China like Baimei County have not spent many warm days, and the chirping of cicadas has begun to echo along with the gradually rising temperature.
This is the Dalen season when "I caught a cold in that corner" is sung. Female students all consider owning a Bubugo I6 blue and white porcelain music phone as the happiest thing, demonstrating their position at the forefront of fashion trends, and
Outstanding taste.
The classmates Mei Fang knew gradually began to have their own mobile phones. Of course, most of them used mobile phones that were used by older brothers and sisters, or their parents retired from service. Even so, they were very happy about it.
Boys use their mobile phones to download the last series of Java games developed on the Symbian system key machine. At the intersection of the 2G and 3G eras, mobile games of this generation rely on traffic fees and SMS payment to make profits. The mainstream on the market
They are all independent stand-alone works with very little content.
Girls are keen on taking pictures, videotaping, listening to songs, watching dramas, and comics. Mobile Penguin allows them to save the cost of text messages and summon her little sisters to go shopping together anytime and anywhere.
However, the three protagonists of our story seem to be out of touch with this rapidly changing and constantly developing world. They are still used to seeing each other by visiting each other.
What Mei Fang is worried about right now is the issue of Xia Yuan's birthday gift.
He promised Xia Yuan that he would give her a special birthday gift this year.
The tutor in Xia Yuan's family was very strict. She and her mother agreed that she would not be allowed to touch her mobile phone until she was in high school, so Mei Fang could only give up the idea of giving Xia Yuan blue and white porcelain.
As for electronic products such as MP3 and MP4 digital cameras, Yuan Yuan, who is rich, has everything, and she may not accept them.
But if it’s accessories, dolls, mugs, etc. that girls like, Mei Fang and Lin Youxi would have given them to them over and over again a few years ago.
"So, Al Fang, you haven't decided what gift to give Yuan Yuan yet?"
"If it were that simple, do you think I would have such an expression on my face?" Mei Fang held her chin and looked helplessly at Lin Youxi who was stretching, "So Youxi, what is the gift you gave me?"
Lin Youxi smiled slightly, took off the cuffs of his sleeves, and showed his bracelet to Mei Fang.
"Look, it's this."
Lin Youxi showed Mei Fang a shiny bracelet.
"Bracelet again? You must have given each other many, many bracelets, right? But the gift you gave Yuan Yuan, why did you put it on yourself?"
"Hmm."
Lin Youxi smiled slightly and said, "What I gave you is a pair of bracelets."
"A pair?"
Lin Youxi showed Mei Fang the word "Yuan" engraved on the silver heart-shaped ornament on the bracelet, and Mei Fang suddenly realized:
"So Yuan Yuan, is there a bracelet with your name engraved on it?"
"Correct answer." Lin Youxi nodded.
"Girls are so kind, and we are together by fate... This birthday gift you gave me is indeed very meaningful."
Mei Fang nodded, "Did you ask the boutique owner to customize this bracelet? Which store is it? It's so awesome."
Lin Youxi immediately cast a disgusted look at Mei Fang, "You don't want to just give Yuanyuan a bracelet, do you?"
"Isn't it possible?" Mei Fang squinted her eyes and smiled.
"Of course not!"
Lin Youxi pinched Mei Fang angrily, "In that case, Yuanyuan will blame me for teaching you to do things... Just leave it to me to think for yourself!"
