Under his nervous gaze, Monica tasted a mouthful of porridge. The porridge was cooked just right. The fish fillets were fresh and tender. There was no fishy smell at all.
All of a sudden, Monica's eyes were a little wet, and her hands with the spoon were a little unsteady.
I didn't expect that I could eat what my son made in my lifetime.
"What's the matter, Ma? Does it taste bad? " Xiao Yuqing saw that Monica didn't eat a bite and thought it was not delicious: "I just said, how can a young master like brother cook? Mom, don't force me. What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you now."
Then he wanted to clear the table.
"It's delicious." Monica quickly wiped the wet corners of her eyes: "I'm a little reluctant because it's so delicious."
"Really?" Xiao Yuqing is dubious. He takes a mouthful of porridge and is stunned.
It's really good.
If he had not known in advance that this was made by his brother himself, he would have thought it was made by the chef of which hotel.
"I'll go... It's really delicious!" Xiao Yuqing, who came back, began to take a big bite.
After a while, half a bucket of porridge went into his stomach.
Monica, who has no appetite, barely eats half a bowl, which is the most she eats in this period of time.
If it wasn't for the fact that she couldn't eat any more, she wanted to eat them all.
"Yuqing, put the rest in the refrigerator. I'll eat it later."
Xiao Yuqing laughs: "Mom, if you want to eat, you can let me make it for you."
What's good about Monica? But Xiao Yujian couldn't even throw away a mouthful of soup.
Although Xiao Yuqing said so, he was obedient and put everything in the refrigerator.
After all this, look at Monica, looking out the window, thinking.
"What are you thinking, mom?"
"It's spring."
Just outside the window, there was a Wutong tree. The branches of the crisscross branches were covered with tiny leaves just sprouting, and they were very crisp and tender under the morning light.
"Mom, I'll go out with you when you're finished." Xiao Yuqing didn't think much about it.
He didn't think there was anything special about this daily visible thing.
"Yujian's birthday... Is coming soon." Monica said softly after a while.
"What?" Xiao Yuqing didn't understand what Monica said.
"Nothing." Monica smiles, then droops her head a little sad.
Xiao Yujian's father is a very ceremonial person. Before he died, he always gave Xiao Yujian his Gregorian calendar birthday in advance. But since he died, no one has given Xiao Yujian any more.
Before she left, every April 5, she would ask the chef to cook a table and buy a cake for him, which was regarded as her birthday, but she often didn't go home because she was busy.
There are too many mistakes, now I know how to cherish them.
Because she didn't know how to calculate the solar calendar, she would send a card to Xiao Yujian before April 5 every year.
Today may be her last birthday with Xiao Yujian.
After a while, the nurse came to hang water on her. Her life was like a potion in a bag.
"Ma, what's the matter with you? Why are you unhappy? "
Xiao Yuqing is aware of the fluctuation of Monica's mood, but when she thinks about it carefully, it seems that nothing special happened.
"Yuqing, can you help me to call very sweet later? I have something to discuss with her. "
"Of course it's OK. I'll call my sister-in-law."
Xiao Yuqing said that he dialed Tang Tiantian's phone. Tang Tiantian couldn't leave for a while, so he agreed to go to them after work at noon.
So when she saw Monica, it was past twelve o'clock, the water was hanging up, and she was lying with her eyes closed.
"Sister in law, you're here. I don't know what I've done wrong. After breakfast, my mother's mood suddenly became very bad."
Xiao Yuqing make complaints about Tang, sweet Tucao.
"I know what's going on." Don was very sweet and gave him a smile.
"You know?" Xiao Yuqing quickly sideways to let Tang very sweet come in.
Tang is very sweet because he is in a hurry. He hasn't even changed his clothes. He is still wearing a white coat.
Seeing her, Monica's face turned slightly better, as if the stone in her heart had finally loosened, but then she became very embarrassed: "very sweet, I... Have something to discuss with you."
"Xiao Yujian's birthday is coming soon. You want to discuss this with me, right?"
Don't say it for Monica.
"You... Already know?" said Monica
"Sorry, I accidentally opened the birthday card you sent to Xiao Yujian."
"So it is... What's the reaction of Yujian?"
Xiao Yujian didn't respond. When she offered to celebrate his birthday, she refused directly.
He didn't care about his birthday at all.
On one side, Xiao Yuqing suddenly realized, and then remembered.
But it's not his fault.
After his father died, although there was a cook in the family who would make cakes for Xiao Yujian on this day, he could hardly move a mouthful. After his mother left, my brother moved to an apartment in the city. All the servants in the family were dismissed, so no one would prepare cakes for him on April 5.
Ten years have passed.
That's why Xiao Yuqing didn't think of it, but he pointed out that tomorrow is Xiao Yujian's birthday.
"He doesn't seem to care very much." Then Tang said very sweetly.
"After his father died, no one gave him a birthday. Of course, he didn't care. It's sweet. Maybe you think I'm selfish. I haven't cared about Yujian for 20 years. At this time, I suddenly want to be a good mother. But... I really want to help him celebrate his birthday. Maybe I won't have such a chance in the future. "
In the past ten years, Xiao Yujian has completely cut off contact with Monica, but whether Xiao Yuqing will contact with her is different. On her birthday, even though fans will send him a lot of gifts, he still asks her for gifts like a child.
So what Monica regrets most is that she hasn't given Xiao Yujian a birthday for so many years.
"Mom, isn't that easy?" Xiao Yuqing suddenly cut in: "brother's birthday is tomorrow. Let's prepare quietly and give him a surprise."
Tang felt that the idea was very good: "I'll help!"
"Mom, you see, we'll help you prepare for a memorable birthday!"
Xiao Yuqing can't wait. Ha ha.
"I know many experts in this field. I'll contact them!"
I'm going to make a phone call.
But Monica doesn't want anyone to interfere in Xiao Yujian's birthday.
This time, she wanted to do it by herself, so as to make up for Xiao Yujian's regret of not having a birthday for 20 years.
The direction has been determined, and the specific plan remains.
This makes Tang Tian very difficult.
She used to celebrate her birthday. Tang Youzhong bought a cake at most. She never held any parties or anything. If it's unforgettable and special, she really doesn't know what to do.
"It doesn't matter. There's still time. Let's think about it together." Monica comforted her with a smile.
After she decided to give Xiao Yujian her birthday, Monica's mood obviously rose a lot.
"But I want to keep this secret from my brother. Don't let him know, or there will be no surprise." Xiao Yuqing cut in and winked at Tang: "sister-in-law, my brother is an individual. You must pay attention to him!"
Tang is very sweet, can't help laughing: "I know!"
In order to give Xiao Yujian a surprise, what she said should be kept secret to the end!
