Crossing the Book of Eighty Years: The Sweet Daughter-in-law of a Mountain Man

"As the saying goes, when in the country, do as the Romans do, when in the harbor, follow the bay. I sat here and watched them eating like this. I felt curious, so I followed them to eat like this."

Although Xia Ning explained it this way, in Zhou Junmin's view, this was also a sign of Xia Ning's intelligence.

Most people just sit down and stare at the noodle tea in the bowl and take small bites with a spoon. Especially girls, isn't that the case?

The way she just pouted her lips and drank some noodle tea was so cute.

Zhou Junmin's heart was filled with worry.

Looking at the person opposite, there are various expressions on his face today.

Xia Ning asked: "Brother Junmin, is there something wrong with you? If you have anything, please tell me."

Zhou Junmin opened his mouth and thought about it, he shouldn't say such things to scare Xia Ning.

He asked: "Xia Ning, is it your birthday?"

Xia Ning thought for a while.

She must have celebrated her birthday before wearing the book, but she has not celebrated her birthday after wearing the book.

When the original owner's parents were still alive, they would boil an egg for her and rub it red with rouge. It was that simple.

"Just eat an egg?" Zhou Junmin asked, "Have you cooked longevity noodles?"

Xia Ning shook his head: "No, the village rarely pays attention to these things."

Zhou Junmin nodded. He was indeed not very particular in the village, but when his mother was around, he would cook him another bowl of noodles.

Later, his mother died and he became ill and missed his last birthday.

Xia Ning tilted her head and looked at Zhou Junmin and asked, "Brother Junmin, is it your birthday?"

When the topic of birthdays was brought up, Zhou Junmin shook his head: "My birthday has passed long ago, and I have to wait a few months for my next birthday."

Xia Ning asked: "When is your birthday?"

Zhou Junmin: "I am on the eighth day of the first lunar month."

Xia Ning: "You really don't lose or suffer at all. You are the real deal."

Zhou Junmin: "Those born at [-]:[-] on the first day of the first lunar month are the real ones."

Xia Ning: "That's almost it."

Zhou Junmin: "It doesn't matter."

His mother didn’t have a queen, and he didn’t celebrate his birthday.

He was worried that Xia Ning would like to celebrate birthdays in the future, so he suddenly asked Xia Ning: "Then will you still celebrate birthdays in the future?"

Birthdays must be celebrated. Although they don't mean much, in this life, people have ups and downs and it's actually quite good to find a day to eat and drink.

Zhou Junmin said: "Actually, we are all the same. We all have our own misfortunes. My birthday reminds me of my mother. After all, the birth of every child is the mother's Good Friday."

Xia Ning nodded, not expecting Zhou Junmin to have such delicate thoughts.

Zhou Junmin: "Have you ever thought about changing your birthday to another day?"

Xia Ning blinked.

Zhou Junmin said: "We are all people who have experienced misfortune, and our dearest people have left us. Birthdays are a kind of pain for us. I have thought about changing my birthday."

Xia Ning nodded. No matter what he did, he could do it. Life was his own anyway.

Zhou Junmin: "I will change it to the seventh day of the first lunar month from now on."

Birthdays can be celebrated in advance, but not later.

After Zhou Junmin finished speaking, he specifically asked Xia Ning: "Why don't you change it too."

His voice was full of temptation. Xia Ning thought for a while and realized that the original owner's birthday was June [-]th.

Xia Ning was thinking, what happened to Zhou Junmin today?

Suddenly chatting with her about her birthday?

And he's so serious?

I want her to change her birthday.

However, her birthday before she wore the book was April 25. She simply said: "Actually, I don't want to celebrate my current birthday. I can celebrate another birthday."

Zhou Junmin asked: "What about one day in advance?"

Xia Ning: "I quite like April 25."

Zhou Junming was obviously relieved.

I had just been thinking about how to prevent Xia Ning from celebrating her birthday, but then I thought about it, birthdays only happen once.

How sad would Xia Ning be if she wasn't allowed to celebrate her birthday?

Zhou Junmin thought for a while and used his own birthday as an example to tell Xia Ning that they could change their birthday.

This can be regarded as a way to hide the truth. Why must it be hidden stupidly?

Maybe it would be better to change the birthday and hide it.

The reason why Xia Ning was willing to change her birthday was because she thought about her birthday before she wore a book.

A beautiful misunderstanding made Xia Ning change her birthday to the birthday in front of the book.

Zhou Junmin's frown that had been frowning all morning relaxed at this time.

Xia Ning asked him strangely: "Brother Junmin, are you in a good mood?"

Zhou Junmin nodded lightly: "Yes."

After finishing the noodle tea and coming out, Xia Ning tilted her head and asked him: "Are you going over now?"

It's still early and the exhibition hall hasn't opened yet.

Zhou Junmin said: "It's still early, I'll take you around the city, and we'll go to the exhibition hall later."

The exhibition hall has not started yet, and the exhibition hall built with canvases in three colors is actually very stuffy.

Zhou Junmin: "I'll take you for a walk first."

The two of you walked around the surrounding streets several times until it was almost time and when the exhibition hall opened, Zhou Junmin sent Xia Ning there.

However, when Xia Ning came, she saw at a glance that where there were four ornaments yesterday, there were now only three.

Surprise flashed in Xia Ning's eyes.

Did a customer buy the ornaments?

Logically speaking, Huang Shisheng should not sell the ornaments. After all, they have not been appraised by a group of experts.

Although the carving is not bad, it is not very detailed either. Would you spend money on it so quickly?

Zhou Junmin looked at Xia Ning.

Xia Ning and Zhou Junmin stood in front of the stall.

Huang Shisheng just came over and saw Xia Ning with a spring-like smile on his face.

"Xia Ning, you're here. I thought you wouldn't come today."

Xia Ning glanced at the shelf and asked, "Master Huang, what's going on with this ornament?"

Huang Shisheng: "When we were in Fengcheng, Mr. Lin received a few ornaments from you. Do you still remember?"

Xia Ning nodded.

Huang Shisheng: "He came yesterday and borrowed an ornament."

It turned out to be the case.

Huang Shisheng: "If you have time, do me a favor first. I have something to do with my friends and I have to go out for a while. You can do it for me."

Xia Ning: "Aren't you worried about me being alone?"

Huang Shisheng couldn't stop laughing: "It's better to worry about you than to worry about the birds in the sky not being hooked by you."

Xia Ning laughed.

Seeing Huang Shisheng walking away, Xia Ning asked Zhou Junmin: "Brother Junmin, if you want to go to the store, go ahead."

Zhou Junmin was a little worried about Xia Ning alone.

Xia Ning: "It's okay, Master Huang believes in me, but you have no confidence in me?"

It's not that Zhou Junmin has no confidence in Xia Ning.

He shook his head.

Xia Ning said: "The store still needs to prepare, clean what needs to be cleaned, and don't be vague about what needs to be hired."

Zhou Junmin said: "It will take a few days to hire someone. I haven't started school yet. Brother Ge Mu can also help. When business gets better later, we should hire someone. Let's hire someone again."

Zhou Junmin's decision was a safe one.

Xia Ning nodded.

Zhou Junmin said: "Then I'll leave first and pick you up at noon."

"Okay." Xia Ning nodded.

Zhou Junmin went to the place where the bicycle was parked, unlocked it, and quickly left on his bicycle. Just as Zhou Junmin turned to the left, a tricycle came from the right.

Two girls got off the tricycle.

Jia Mianmian said as he walked: "You can take a look as long as the price does not exceed 200 yuan. You can choose whatever you want."
