The days passed quickly and soon it was Li Zhendong's birthday.

Li Zhendong has two birthdays, one fake and one real.

The fake birthday is open to the public and is a big deal. It is simply for the purpose of socializing for some interests and providing an opportunity for everyone to socialize.

The real birthday is much more low-key, with just a few family members having dinner together.

On this day, Li Mubai held the birthday picture of good fortune and happiness embroidered by Jiang Li for the old man, and Jiang Li held the cake she had made by herself, and the two of them happily walked into the Li family's old house.

The last time I came over for dinner, there were only six people at the family dinner. Now there is one more, Xue Lulu.

When she entered the house today, Xue Lulu had gained the old man's recognition and had stepped half a foot into the Li family.

After all, it was the old man's birthday, and Xue Lulu was unusually well-behaved today. She resisted the urge to confront Li Yunze many times, and used all her lifelong acting skills to create the image of a well-educated, kind and gentle rich lady. Her every move was so gentle and generous that Li Yunze almost laughed several times.

Is this still his girlfriend?

Is this still the Xue Lulu who is always willful, capricious and spoiled?

Hahaha!

I can’t recognize it!

Li Yunze's smile was too exaggerated. Seeing that the old man was chatting with Jiang Li and didn't look at her, Xue Lulu took the opportunity to give Li Yunze a friendly warning look, meaning, if you smile again, you will know the price when you go back.

As expected, Li Yunze didn't dare to laugh anymore. He sat upright, like a porcelain doll.

It's funny, but he still has to go back to his sweet lover's land tonight, and he can't go too far.

Today was just a family dinner, Li Yunze and Li Mubai both brought their girlfriends back, so the atmosphere at the table was quite relaxed, even Li Canghai smiled. It was a rare day for Li Zhendong not to scold his youngest son, a fatherly and filial son. Chen Cuiying's face was a fake smile, sometimes revealing a meaningful expression, but her expression was not important, no one cared about her.

After the meal, everyone gave gifts to the old man and he smiled happily.

At such an old age, with a high status and amazing financial resources, Li Zhendong has seen all kinds of rare things, but he is still very happy when his children and grandchildren express their feelings.

Li Canghai and his wife gave Chen Cuiying a valuable painting, which was the last work of a painter and calligrapher that the old man liked very much. It was very expensive, and Chen Cuiying felt distressed for several months. Li Yunze and his wife gave Chen Cuiying a set of imported massage chairs, which are said to be able to sweep away fatigue and be reborn after lying on them for more than ten minutes. Everyone knows what Li Mubai and his wife gave, but in addition to cross-stitch and cakes, Li Mubai also added a set of fine white jade go.

In fact, Li Zhendong's favorite gift was Jiang Li's, because although her gift was not expensive, it took the most effort. Not only did she give such a beautiful cross-stitch, she made a cake, and she also went to the temple to pray for a lucky charm.

Having reached his current position, does he still lack money or fame?

What he lacks is someone who is close to him. When she was a child, Jiang Li made longevity noodles and dumplings for her birthday. Now that he is old and it is his birthday, Jiang Li makes him cakes. His birthday is a combination of Chinese and Western styles. He has tried both trendy and traditional styles. I just don't know how many times he can celebrate this birthday again.

Li Zhendong was very sad, but he also knew that today was a great day and he should smile more, so he thanked everyone in turn and gave everyone red envelopes. After receiving the red envelopes, Chen Cuiying's face finally looked much better, and she called "Dad" a few more times.

After handing out the red envelopes, Li Canghai went back to rest, and Chen Cuiying was also dragged away by him. Li Zhendong usually takes a nap, but today he was in a good mood and not sleepy. He just received a chess set, so he dragged Li Mubai to play chess. Li Yunze was also called away, responsible for pouring tea and serving water.

Li Yunze: …

Is it that the grandson is my biological son, but the son is not?

The men all left, and Xue Lulu and Jiang Li had nothing to do but sit there eating melon seeds and staring at each other.

Xue Lulu used to dislike Jiang Li, but now her status is different and her mentality is different. Maybe in the near future, Jiang Li will have to call her "little aunt". After all, they are the elders, so she should show the bearing of an elder. Why should she be so fussy with a junior?

Thinking of this, Xue Lulu's expression became much kinder.

"Jiang Li, what's the name of the thing you gave me?"

"Cross stitch."

“Is it difficult to embroider?”

"It's not difficult, just a little time-consuming. Why, do you want to learn?"

"I do not want!"

"you think!"

"I do not want!"

"you think!"

"I do not want!"

"you think!"

"I do not want!"

"you think!"

"Okay, I guess."

Xue Lulu said a little embarrassedly: "Li Yunze's birthday is coming soon, and I also want to embroider one for him. Can you...can you teach me?"

Xue Lulu originally thought that Jiang Li would use Qiao as a pretext, but unexpectedly, she agreed so readily.

"Okay, no problem!"

Xue Lulu: ...

Why did she agree so readily? Did she have a conspiracy?

"I can teach you how to embroider and I can take you to buy materials, but you have to pay for it yourself."

Xue Lulu heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. This was the Jiang Li she knew! Fortunately, there was no conspiracy.

"Okay! Money is a small matter! But can you choose the pattern?"

Li Yunze is still so young, she can't possibly embroider a picture of good fortune and luck! She should embroider... what should she embroider?

"You can choose from a variety of patterns. When you are free, I will take you to see them."

Cross-stitch, also known as cross-stitch, is an ancient embroidery that originated in the Tang and Song dynasties and flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the 14th century, it was introduced from China to Italy via Turkey, and then became popular in Europe. Many people think that cross-stitch was introduced from foreign countries, but in fact, China is its origin.

Cross-stitch is one of the simplest types of embroidery. As long as you have special embroidery thread and cross-grid fabric, as the boss says, even a clumsy hand can embroider a good piece.

However, there are not many cross-stitch patterns now, and the patterns are mostly traditional.

Having said that, Xue Lulu directly confirmed the time with Jiang Li and said she would go to see her the next day.

It is said that embroidery is time-consuming, so Xue Lulu should hurry up and prepare, otherwise it will be too late.

The three men on the other side couldn't hear what Jiang Li and Xue Lulu were talking about. They just saw that they both had relaxed expressions and seemed to be talking and laughing. They also thought the scene was very beautiful.

The future aunt and niece-in-law should be closer to each other...

Little did they know that later...

Forget it, let’s not talk about it for now. After all, that’s all in the future.

……

On the other side, the study.

At the beginning, he was very excited, but after playing a few games, Li Zhendong felt exhausted and overwhelmed. He waved his hand and said he was going to take a nap, leaving Li Yunze and Li Mubai to play by themselves.

Li Zhendong was resting, and Li Yunze and Xue Lulu couldn't sit still, thinking about going out for a date. Li Mubai and Jiang Li didn't have anywhere to go. After coming here many times, Jiang Li hadn't had a good look around the Li family mansion. This time, they had time, so they took Jiang Li for a good look.

"Every time I come here, I'm in a hurry. This time, I'll take you around the place where I lived when I was a child."

Li Mubai had wanted to take Jiang Li to see the place where he lived as a child for a long time, but Li Zhendong suddenly fainted the first time, and he came and went in a hurry the next few times, so there was no chance.

"My room is on the third floor."

Jiang Li followed Li Mubai up the long wooden staircase to the third floor, walked through the long corridor, and finally arrived at the door of Li Mubai's room.

When she pushed open the door of Li Mubai's room, Jiang Li finally understood why Li Zhendong always disliked the house they lived in now.
