Chapter 111: 111 birthday
He said how could his stepmother not give him a birthday when she was so good, Huzi happily hopped around the house twice before going out.
At this time, Xu Sheng and Shen Yu had already finished their meal and left, leaving Han Wen alone at the dining table, eating slowly with beans between them.
Seeing Xiaolong running out, Han Wen asked without thinking, "Did you miss out?"
Xiaolong ran to the chair and sat down, picked up his leftover pancakes and nodded with a guilty conscience.
Han Wen: "It's okay, like your brother, if you don't give him some information, he can be awkward all afternoon."
Xiaolong: "Mom, don't you blame me?"
Han Wen: "I don't blame you. Today is your brother's birthday. We can't make him unhappy, can we!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Hu Zi came out of the room happily. He wanted to keep his face sullen, but the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed, and he simply did not hide it.
Han Wen raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you want to eat again?"
Hu Zi's brows were full of pride, he sat on the chair and picked up the pancake he had put aside, took a bite with his mouth open, and said, "I'm hungry again."
Han Wen saw that his tail was about to go up to the sky, and she didn't dismantle him. She leaned on the table and said casually, "You two eat at the latest, and you will wash the bowl soon."
"Ah! How can you do this!" Hu Zi retorted dissatisfiedly.
Han Wen turned her head and looked at him innocently, "What's wrong with me, hasn't our family been like this all the time?
Huzi: You are ruthless! As he spoke, he took a bite of the pancake viciously to vent his dissatisfaction.
Han Wen was so amused by Hu Zi's appearance that she was afraid that she couldn't help laughing, so she went to the kitchen immediately. She still had a lot of things to prepare, so she couldn't waste time here.
As soon as Han Wen left, Huzi started to stare at Xiaolong.
Xiaolong felt in danger, and wanted to slip away even if he didn't want to eat.
Hu Zi sensed Xiaolong's intentions, his eyes narrowed and he said coldly, "Stop! Where do you want to run?"
Xiaolong pretended to be calm, "I'm going to help my mother after I finish eating."
Huzi: "You sit back with me honestly, I have something to ask you."
Xiaolong moved to the chair honestly, and replied in a small voice: "What do you want to ask?"
Huzi: "What birthday gift did Mom prepare for me, so mysterious?"
Xiaolong shook his head, "I don't know."
Huzi: "Do you say it again?"
Xiaolong: "I really don't know."
Hu Zi stood up from the chair in a rage, pressing step by step: "You are with your mother every day, don't you know?"
Xiaolong sensed the danger, slipped off his chair neatly, turned around and ran out the door, still shouting, "Don't ask me, don't ask me, I really don't know."
When Han Wen hid the remaining tools, she saw that there was no one in the living room, and the table was full of leftovers.
Han Wen sighed helplessly, the trash can was not at home, and there was no place to put vegetables.
But at this time, even the leftovers were reluctant to throw away. Han Wen folded them together and put them back in the kitchen, mumbling, "Where are these two children going crazy?"
It wasn't until the afternoon was about to go to class that the brothers came back in a hurry. Hu Zi rushed back to the house and took the schoolbag, shouting, "I'm going to school." Then he disappeared.
Xiaolong didn't have so much energy to lie down on the table tiredly, unwilling to move.
Han Wen: "Where did you go to play again?"
Xiaolong rested for a while, raised his red face, and happily replied, "Follow my brothers to the beach."
"Then does your brother dare to go into the water now?"
Xiaolong shook his head, "Now the water is cold, we are not going down."
Han Wen thought about it too. It's already November, and it's really cold, but the trash can in their house is not afraid of cold, and even in cold weather, she takes a bath with cold water.
Han Wen went to Wang Hao's house to bring out the cake embryo, and went back to the kitchen to think about finishing the rest.
As soon as Han Wen started whipping cream, she heard that there was no movement outside. Han Wen came out to take a look, and saw that Xiaolong had fallen asleep on the table.
After coming back from outside, Han Wen took off her coat, and now she is wearing a white shirt with a loose pink sweater over it. Because the sweater was rolled up to her forearm at work, there was no burden of clothes. Han Wen was very happy. He easily picked up Xiaolong and put him back in the room.
It took more than an hour for Han Wen to finish the cake. She was afraid that it would not be safe to put it in the kitchen, so she would touch it while cooking, so she took the cake and put it in Wang Hao's room.
It's already three o'clock in the afternoon when Han Wen is done thinking about the old hen in the chicken coop, and she has another headache. The last time she killed the chicken, she had to bite her teeth. .
Han Wen was standing in the yard looking embarrassed, when she saw Li Jun strode past his door, saw her with the chicken in her hand and retreated, she asked in disbelief, "You want to kill the chicken?"
Han Wen replied angrily, "No way!"
Li Jun clicked his tongue twice, strode in, and closed the door by the way.
Han Wen frowned, "Why are you closing the door?"
Li Jun rolled up his sleeves and replied, "You kill chickens in broad daylight and still open the door, so you're not afraid that others will say you are ostentatious."
Han Wen choked back and said, "I haven't killed it yet. When I kill it, I will naturally close the door. What are you doing here?"
Li Jun looked Han Wen up and down, "You're going to kill chickens by dressing like this?"
Han Wen didn't know why: "What's the matter."
Li Jun: "It doesn't look like work." The people who work are all dressed in rags, so bright and beautiful.
Listening to Li Jun's tone, Han Wen thought that Li Jun was here to find trouble, and deliberately sarcastically said: "This Captain Li doesn't work, so why does he run to us every day? The village is so idle?"
Li Jun didn't get angry when he heard it, took the chicken from Han Wen's hand, and said, "I'm here to ask Sister-in-law Wang for help, and by the way, do good deeds."
"What are you doing standing still, get me a bowl."
Han Wen pouted, but went back to get a bowl for Li Jun.
Li Jun put the bowl on the steps, smeared a knife on the chicken's neck, the chicken's blood gurgled out, and when the chicken's blood was dry, he threw it on the ground, and turned around and said, "You can do the rest yourself. OK?"
Han Wen nodded, "Okay."
Li Jun then walked to the well, washed his hands, and left.
After a while, I heard Wang Dani's voice next door.
Huzi ran back before five o'clock in the afternoon, rushed into the kitchen immediately, and asked eagerly, "Mom, did you stew the old hen?"
Han Wen: "Keep your voice down, and don't be afraid of being heard by the neighbors and come over to find what you want to eat."
Hu Zi raised his face: "I'm not afraid."
Huzi seemed relieved when he saw the old hen, and this time he was very good and didn't go anywhere, just accompanied Xiaolong to play in the yard.
When Wang Hao came back from get off work, he was not used to seeing Xiaolong and Huzi being so honest, so he asked casually, "Why don't you help your mother?"
