All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 425 425. Precious Gift

Zuo Xiangqun didn't accept Yue Wenxuan's trick at all, "If you missed it, you missed it. We two are not actors, do we have to act for you again?"
If you want to be a witness, then just wait. When the two of us get married, we can give you this opportunity. "

Dong Yumeng was not as thick-skinned as Zuo Xiangqun. When he heard Zuo Xiangqun even talked about getting married, his face suddenly became hot and he quickly covered it up:

"Today is Hongying's birthday. Hongying is the birthday girl today. You guys, don't just say irrelevant things. There are so many people standing in the yard and it's noisy. It's better to go inside quickly."

Yue Wenxuan knew that Dong Yumeng was thin-skinned, so he stopped joking with the two of them and invited everyone to walk into the house together.

After everyone sat down, Xiao Haiyan first said: "Hongying, this is my first time celebrating someone's birthday, and I don't know what birthday gift I should prepare for you.

She took out a bronze medal and handed it to Yue Hongying, "This medal is still brand new. I haven't used it since I bought it, so I gave it to you. I hope you like it."

Yue Hongying and Xiao Haiyan are also good friends. They used to live in the same dormitory. I once saw her taking out this badge to enjoy it. She knew that this bronze medal was her favorite and she was embarrassed to take it away from others. , then said:
"It's just an ordinary birthday. I'm already very happy that you can come and have a meal with me. I won't get any more gifts from you. If you do this, I will never dare to celebrate my birthday again in the future."

Xiao Haiyan knew that everyone else had also prepared birthday gifts for Yue Hongying. Of course, the birthday gifts that had been given out would not be taken back. The two of them pushed back for a while before Yue Hongying accepted them.

The others watched the two people's negotiation, and no one said anything. It was not until Yue Hongying accepted the gift that Xiong Jun said:

"That's right. Your 18th birthday is the most important birthday in your life. From today on, you are an adult. We are here to celebrate such an important birthday for you. How can we not prepare a gift for you."

He also took out a medal and showed it, "What a coincidence, the birthday gift I prepared for you is also a bronze medal.

You have already accepted Xiao Haiyan's gift, so don't be polite to me, just accept it. "

Although they are all bronze medals, the one Xiong Jun took out was much larger, about the size of a palm. If you compare the prices, it is obvious that the price of this bronze medal is much higher.

Yue Hongying had accepted Xiao Haiyan's gift just now. They are all the same friends, so they should naturally be treated the same.She stopped being polite to Xiong Jun, said a word of thanks, and happily accepted the bronze medal.

Since Bai Yating established a relationship with Sha Pingchang, her personality has become more and more gentle. Especially when she is with Sha Pingchang, her eyes are always paying attention to him silently, and she even talks a lot less.

After entering the door, she spoke for the first time: "What's going on today? It's like it was discussed in advance. The gifts everyone gave are all badges. The gifts I prepared for Hongying from Pingchang are also badges."

Bai Yating took out a silver medal from her pocket and handed it to Yue Hongying's hand, "This silver medal is Pingchang's favorite collection. It is a gift from the two of us to you. Normally, he would be reluctant to wear it. Hope you like it."

Compared with bronze medals, the circulation of silver medals is much smaller, and the price is also very expensive. Moreover, Sha Pingchang's silver medal is a rare large medal, as big as the palm of your hand.

After living together in the educated youth home for several months, Yue Hongying only saw him wearing it twice.

She didn't know whether she should accept such a precious silver badge. Feeling troubled, she raised her head and looked at her eldest brother.

Yue Wenxuan said: "Since this is Pingchang and Yating's intention, then you can accept it."

With her eldest brother's consent, Yue Hongying happily kept the silver badge.

"Hongying, Yumeng and I have jointly prepared a gift for you, but let me declare in advance that this gift belongs to Yumeng. Don't think that I am stingy."

Yue Hongying looked at Zuo Xiangqun and teased: "How can you? After all, you are also someone who has a partner. I can understand it."

"As long as you understand." Zuo Xiangqun was worried that he would be teased for saying too much, so he quickly took out the gift he had prepared. "This harmonica was a gift given to her by an elder of Yumeng. She has never It has not been blown, it is still brand new, and it is given to you."

Among the female educated youths, Dong Yumeng was the one who had the best relationship with Yue Hongying, and she also knew Dong Yumeng the best.

Regarding the origin of this harmonica, Dong Yumeng once told her that she would not dare to accept such a commemorative item.

She handed the harmonica back to Dong Yumeng's hands and said sincerely:

"It's just an ordinary birthday. Why do you have to prepare such a precious gift? If you can just say your blessing to me, it's already the best gift.

This harmonica means a lot to you. You can't give it away easily. You should keep it for yourself. "

“I haven’t played an instrument in several years, not now and never again.

This harmonica is left in my hands, just a pearl covered in dust. If it could talk, it would have protested against me long ago.

Didn't you say you wanted to learn an instrument from your elder brother? This harmonica is very suitable. "

One time Yue Wenxuan picked a leaf and played it, and Yue Hongying happened to hear it. Because he was so fascinated by it, he came up with the idea of ​​learning an instrument.

She only mentioned it once in front of Dong Yumeng, but Dong Yumeng remembered it in his heart.

Dong Yumeng has a high talent for playing musical instruments. This was once one of her greatest prides, but later it became the reason for her criticism.

She has never played any instrument since her parents were taken away.

Although this harmonica is of commemorative significance to her, every time she sees it, it reminds her of those sad past events.

As Dong Yumeng's best friend, Yue Hongying understood what she was thinking. After hearing what she said, she stopped refusing and finally accepted this precious gift.

Seeing that the gifts everyone gave were very precious, Gu Bingxue originally thought that the gifts she had carefully prepared were very meaningful, but now she suddenly felt a little unable to get them.

But now she thought it was too late to replace the gift, so she could only take out the book she had prepared long ago and said to Yue Hongying:
"Hongying, I personally like this book "How the Steel Was Tempered" very much. I was very inspired after reading it. I give this book to you, and I hope you will gain something from reading it."

In this era, books are very scarce and relatively expensive, making it difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to read classics.

Yue Hongying happily borrowed this book, hugged it to her chest cherishingly, and said excitedly:

"I have heard of this book a long time ago and have always wanted to borrow it to read. Unfortunately, none of my friends around me have it, so I have never been able to do so.

If I had known that I would receive such a gift on my birthday, I should have invited you to my birthday last year. "

"Oh, I haven't read this book either. Hongying, can you lend it to me after reading it?"

Xiao Haiyan took her arm and pleaded.

"Me too, me too. If I had such a good book to read every day, I would definitely read it even if I was hungry." Bai Yating's eyes also shone, and her tone was full of longing.Yue Wenxuan did not expect that all the educated youths had prepared gifts, and they were all rare. He was very happy for his eldest sister. At the same time, he was also glad that the lunch he had prepared today was rich enough and would not disappoint everyone.

Everyone talked for a while, but Yue Wenxuan never took out his gift. Gu Bingxue couldn't help but say:
“Brother, you didn’t forget to prepare a gift for Hongying, right?
This will not work!

Even we have prepared gifts, but you are Hongying’s dearest brother, how can you not have gifts?And it must be valuable enough to be worthy of your status as a big brother. "

"Of course there are gifts, but now is not the time to take them out. You have to wait. You can see them when the food is on the table."

Yue Wenxuan looked at his watch and realized it was time to cook, so he said to several female educated youths:
"Today is Hongying's birthday, so you don't need to do anything. You can just talk to Hongying. We male compatriots will cook lunch."

Dong Yumeng has the best cooking skills. She usually does the cooking. She was a little uneasy and asked:
"Can you guys do it? If not, let me do it.

I see that there are many hard dishes prepared in the main room. If they are not cooked well, it will be wasted. "

Yue Wenxuan said confidently: "Don't worry, their cooking skills are not worth mentioning, but my cooking skills are not bad. I will let you try my cooking today."

Zuo Xiangqun had never seen Yue Wenxuan cook before and was deeply skeptical of his words, "Are you good at it? If not, don't pretend to be a big clove of garlic.

I think there are fish and chickens out there. If you don't do well, it's a small thing to ruin things. If it affects Hongying's mood, it's a big problem. "

"I just want to show you some of my skills. Come over and help me. I'll teach you how to cook."

It's said to be a starting point, but actually it doesn't take many people to do it.

The dishes for lunch today have been packed in advance, and he only needs two people to help him light the fire.

The two large iron pots in the main room can be used today. One is used for stewing and the other is used for stir-frying. This will make the cooking process faster.

Yue Wenxuan just doesn't like cooking, it's not that he doesn't know how to cook.

Although he rarely went to the kitchen to cook in these lifetimes, he still honed his good cooking skills over a long period of time.

The food he cooked was not only delicious, but also fast. In less than an hour, the food was on the table.

Although everyone has not tasted the taste of several dishes, just the aroma of these dishes while cooking and the colors of these dishes are already extremely tempting.

There was red wine and beer in Yue Wenxuan's space, but it was not suitable to take them out. In the end, he brought a few bottles of local liquor and put them on the table.

"Today is Hongying's birthday. Regardless of whether you have drank before or not, everyone should have a drink today. Men and women are the same. No one is allowed to refuse.

If you feel your body can't bear it, you can drink less. Don't worry if you get drunk. If you get some sleep at night, you'll be fine when you wake up in the morning. "

Several male educated youths had drank liquor, and they were even more happy when they saw Yue Wenxuan bring out the liquor.

None of the female educated youths had ever drunk liquor. After hearing Yue Wenxuan's suggestion, they were inevitably a little worried.

Gu Bingxue knew everyone's situation and took the lead and said boldly: "I know that everyone has never drank liquor before, and I am the same, but there is a first time for everything. Today we will make an exception and try what liquor tastes like. .”

Xiao Haiyan was carefree and was the first to agree: "Just drink, at worst, you'll get drunk and go back to sleep!"

With the two of them taking the lead, even if others don't want to drink, they can't say it out loud.

Others may have long forgotten what Yue Wenxuan said before, but Yue Hongying, the person involved, will not forget it. She looked at her elder brother and asked expectantly:

"Brother, didn't you just say you had prepared a gift for me? Can you take it out now?"

"Yes, Wenxuan, where is your gift? Take it out quickly and let everyone see what a good thing it is." Sha Pingchang also urged.

"Take it out quickly, I'm still waiting to open my eyes!"

Everyone joined in the fun and urged them one after another.

"I have put a lot of thought into preparing this gift, and you will definitely not be able to guess what it is.

Just wait a moment, you'll be fine. "

After saying these words, Yue Wenxuan actually turned around and left the room. When he came back, he was holding a large square paper box in his hands.

Everyone speculated about what was in the carton, but when it was revealed, they felt it was unreliable.

Yue Wenxuan stopped teasing everyone, put the carton on the table in the middle, and opened the lid directly.

Everyone exclaimed in surprise!

No one expected that the gift Yue Wenxuan prepared was actually a cream birthday cake.

Sha Pingchang asked in surprise: "There is a cream cake shop in the county town of our county. Why haven't I seen it before?"

"I am a local and grew up in the county town. I have never seen a cream cake shop. This cake was definitely not bought in the county town." Xiao Haiyan said very firmly.

“This cream cake was indeed custom-made in the county, but it was not bought in a cake shop.

A chef from a cake shop in the provincial capital came to Jiao County to visit relatives. I accidentally heard someone asking him to order a cream cake, so I ordered one.

I heard that cake shops in the provincial capital no longer make birthday cakes. Hongying was lucky enough to book one for her 18th birthday. This was obviously her good luck. "

Of course, the birthday cake that Yue Wenxuan brought out was not custom-made in the county, but was brought out from the space.

He has several such cream birthday cakes in his space, all of which he had ordered before going to the countryside.

Cream birthday cake is a rare thing in this era. Among all the people here, only two or three people have seen it before.
