you at that time

I smiled and said yes.

I'm afraid you like it, but I don't agree.

This sanitation is really difficult.

After washing and changing, Lu Sui and I went downstairs. As expected, the supermarket was having a big sale as Xiaoli said, so the number of customers was twice as high as usual.

We went straight to the second floor very decisively, bought the bones and ingredients we liked, and went straight to the checkout decisively.

I was pulling the shopping cart on the side, and Lu Sui was pushing it behind me. There were long queues at more than ten cash registers in the supermarket.

Being idle and bored, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned around, and saw that Lu Sui had also taken out his mobile phone.

Not only us, but the hundreds of people who lined up all held their phones and lowered their heads.

Just as I was browsing Weibo with my head down, I suddenly heard Lu Sui say something behind me: "Jian Xuqiu, I bought you a gift, do you want it?"

I turned to look at her: "Gift? What kind of gift? Birthday gift?"

She nodded and hummed.

This is the eighth birthday that she accompanied me. I remember that she gave me presents on my first few birthdays, but she gradually stopped giving them. When I think about it carefully, I even forgot when she stopped giving them. , but it seems that every birthday, she is by my side.

But I am more conscientious. Every birthday, I will give her something, and I will also give her a red rose.

The original intention of my gift was to build a good relationship with her. The first gift even sought a lot of help in the Weibo Post Bar. After getting many unreliable suggestions, I still did not give up. Finally, with the help of my mother, I went to the temple I begged for a string of prayer beads for her.

I saw her wearing the string of Buddhist beads before, but I didn't see her wearing them anymore. Maybe it's because she grew up and became tired of aesthetics.

Sending red roses is relatively simple, she said she likes red roses.

Although I couldn't understand at the time why a 14-year-old girl would like red roses, which are very common and represent love flowers.Other people's 14-year-olds like strange things, and even go to the Internet to search for unpopular flowers that most people have never heard of, to show their specialness.

But she likes red roses, and I'm still very happy.

Red roses are so beautiful, and red roses are so easy to find. At that time, I was working as a helper in a flower shop, and there was an employee price.

Later, it became a habit to give her gifts.

You gave it this year, but don't give it next year, in case the child thinks too much and thinks you don't love her anymore, what to do.

There was one less family at the checkout, and we followed suit.

I picked up a box of xylitol on the side of the counter, threw it into the shopping cart, and asked, "Why did you suddenly buy me a gift?"

She didn't answer my question directly, still: "Do you want it?"

I was a little surprised by Lu Sui's sudden domineering president style. I thought that if I continued to ask, she might just stuff the gift into my arms, and then leave without looking back.

So I said, "Yes."

After going back, she opened the door and saw Xiaoli on the sofa, who had fallen asleep with her son. She curled up on the sofa, rubbing a corner of the quilt against her son, looking very pitiful.

I closed the door softly, but it still woke Xiaoli up. She opened her eyes and looked at us, and said, "I'm back."

I hummed, handed the milk and bread I just bought to Lu Sui, took the bag and went to the kitchen, sorted the things and put them in the refrigerator.

After it was done, I remembered what Lu Sui said about giving me a present, so I changed direction and walked towards her room.

Her room is at the end of the corridor. I knocked on the half-covered door twice, and after pushing it open, I realized that it seemed like I hadn't stepped in for a long time.

"Can I come in?" I asked her while holding the doorknob.

She sat on the chair and looked back at me: "Come in."

Lu Sui has always been self-reliant, at first I would take the initiative to help her tidy up her room and bed, but within a few months, she stopped letting me move and said she could do it herself.

As far as the idea that everyone has a private space, I understand.

This room is not what I imagined, except that its area is as big as I remembered, everything else has changed.

I looked around curiously, and finally landed on a device next to her computer.

I pondered for a second and asked, "Is this a microphone?"

She hesitated for a while, then answered me: "Yes."

I wondered: "Why is it used? Is it for singing?"

She replied: "Buy for fun."

She said that before I could continue to be curious, she squatted down suddenly, opened the bottom drawer of the desk, opened a folder in the drawer, fumbled inside for a while, and finally took out a gift box.

I couldn't help laughing, and asked, "Are you afraid of being stolen? It's so deep."

She smiled lightly, expressing that she did not want to answer, stood up, and handed me the box.

I took it over and asked, "Have you opened it?"

Her: "Yeah."

After asking for opinions, I pulled off the old-looking ribbon on the top, opened the off-white box, and saw a small custom-made metal book lying inside, the book was opened, and a bouquet of golden roses was placed on it .

I thought, this girl really likes roses, she even brought roses with her presents.

I took the book out of the box. According to its appearance, it was a decoration. I turned to the back and suddenly found two words.
