The kitchen was busy making the New Year’s Eve dinner, which was either steamed or boiled, and the cooks closed the kitchen door for fear of oily fumes floating into the house, and they were very busy inside.
So at noon, the family eats a little simpler. When the host is busy posting the couplets, the helper opens a door from the kitchen, and then brings out a pot of porridge, with a few side dishes, and the lunch is settled in this way.
The boiled eggs were cut into slices, with a layer of sauce on top, a plate of mustard greens, a plate of cold vegetables, a small plate of bacon, and a soup. Compared with yesterday's dinner, it was indeed much inferior.
But everyone had just finished their work, and they were too tired to have any appetite. The porridge and side dishes could stimulate their appetite even more. Bai Liang’s stomach was growling with hunger, so after washing his hands, he sat in his place and yelled: “Brother, senior sister.” , come and eat!"
Abel and Alex seldom eat this kind of lunch. They felt fresh for a while, but they didn't mind eating so simple. They sat down and ate with chopsticks.
But Dong Ya is a guest after all, and Shen Heng was worried that he would not be able to find him well, so while serving Bai Liang some food, he said to her in a gentle voice: "The kitchen is a bit busy today, so I will wrong you for lunch, and I can eat New Year's Eve at 05:30." It's supper."
Dong Ya, who had just picked up the bowl, was flattered to put down the bowl and chopsticks when she heard Shen Heng taking care of her like this, and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "It's not a problem, it's not a problem, it's good to drink porridge, it's nutritious and can keep you in shape."
Seeing that she was so nervous, Bai Liang wanted to comfort her, but half of the egg yolk was stuffed in his mouth, and he had to swallow the egg yolk first, but he swallowed so fast that he choked himself, and the dry egg yolk stuck in his throat. He kept stretching his neck.
Shen Heng couldn't see him eating carelessly, so he stretched out his hand to comfort him, and the servant who was waiting at the table quickly stepped forward to fill a bowl of soup and handed it over. Shen Heng took the soup, blew it cold and fed it to Bai Liang's mouth , frowning and said to him: "I said you should eat slowly, and no one is robbing you, why are you in a hurry."
Bai Liang took two mouthfuls of soup before swallowing the egg yolk. He was so choked that tears flowed out. It was really uncomfortable. When he recovered, he couldn't remember what he wanted to say just now, especially when he saw Shen Heng's reproachful eyes Finally, he bowed his head with a guilty conscience, and drank the porridge seriously.
In the afternoon, the sun came out, which is rare to see in winter in the north. The sun is warm and casts a light orange glow on everything, making people feel more like the New Year.
The house was busy arranging things that would come in handy for the New Year, the servants were coming and going, and there was not even a place to stay.Bai Liang was escorted by Shen Heng to take a nap, and when he opened the door, he almost bumped into a servant carrying New Year's goods. It was Shen Heng who was walking behind him with quick eyesight and quick hands that pulled him away so that he wouldn't bump into others.
Bai Liang rubbed his still-awake eyes, looked down from upstairs, the living room was full of sundries, and the servants were busy cleaning them up.
Shen Heng was going to work in the study, so he called Bai Liang by the way: "The house won't be finished in a while, you follow me into the study, don't get in the way outside and delay other people's work."
Hearing this, Bai Liang uttered an ooh, and he also saw that Ala, who had originally occupied the living room as a base of activities, was dragged to the kennel in the corner at this time, and he was crying out for being wronged.
He and Ala looked at each other affectionately across most of the house. Bai Liang could see Ala's desire for freedom, but he also knew that now was not the time to be willful, so he could only give Ala a helpless expression, shrugged and said: " There is no way, Allah, you have to stay in the nest obediently."
After speaking, he followed Shen Heng into the study.
Shen Heng browsed the important documents sent by Aodi Headquarters on the computer. There is no Spring Festival holiday in Europe. This year, Bai Liang wanted Abel and Alex to come back for a reunion. Shen Heng could only give the brothers a holiday according to his wishes. , and the work of Aodi in the European region is still as usual, and the senior management there can only send the documents that need to be reviewed by the top leader to Shen Heng's mailbox, and ask Shen Heng to review them.
These should be the work of Abel and Alex, but Shen Heng understands that they are still children who are about the same age as Bai Liang. Since Bai Liang can celebrate the New Year without any worries, let his sons be like Bai Liang. Have a relaxing year, they are all children, and they have a companion when they play together. As an older adult, he can't participate in their children's games, so he has to work harder.
Shen Heng was very serious when he was working. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes browsed through the documents line by line, and he tapped the keyboard once or twice. At other times, the study room was quiet, and he could even hear playing games while lying on the sofa. The white and cool breathing sound.
This kind of silence didn't last long, Bai Liang is really a little kid who can't keep his peace for long, he played a game, only felt that his bones were going to be loose when he was lying on the sofa, so he stretched his waist and sat up , There is a lot of movement.
Shen Heng knew that he had moved, but he still kept his eyes on the document. He didn't look away from Bai Liang until Bai Liang came over to have fun.
He didn't wear white sandals, and Bai Shengsheng's feet stepped on the dark-colored carpet, which made people look angry. Shen Heng pulled him into his arms and hugged him on his lap, and wrapped his feet with his hands, in case he would freeze arrive.
But the heating in the house is very good, and there is floor heating, and Bai Liang's soles are warm and cool, not too cold, so Shen Heng felt relieved, and pulled up the hem of his clothes when he was stretching just now, and let him go back wear shoes.
But Bai Liang turned around and hugged Shen Heng, and said sullenly: "I'm so bored."
Shen Heng kissed his forehead, patted his back again, and coaxed: "Then you go out and play with your brothers, let them go to your toy room, play games or play toys, don't go outside Just get in the way of others."
When it comes to toy rooms, it’s like being mentioned in black history. As a 22-year-old boy, Bai Liang actually has a toy room decorated with various children’s toys. This is really unspeakable. It's good to know, but now that Dong Ya is still at home, if she knows about this, where will Bai Liang put his face as an "elder"?
Bai Liang rejected the proposal without thinking, but he didn't want to get moldy in the study, so he found an excuse and ran out.
When he went out, he happened to meet Shen Ruizhe and Dong Ya, who were also awake for a nap and had nowhere to go. He greeted them, Bai Liang rolled his eyes, and suggested: "It's not snowing outside now, why don't we go for a walk in the garden?" Well, it's the first time for senior sister to play here, brother, let's take her to familiarize herself with the surrounding environment."
Shen Ruizhe thinks this suggestion is good, since Yaya came back with him as a guest, as the future daughter-in-law of the Shen family, it is also appropriate to visit the Shen family mansion.
Seeing that both of them agreed with him, Bai Liang said to them while walking towards the bedroom: "Go back to your room and put on some extra clothes. After I change, I'll call my elder brother and my second brother, and we'll go out and play together to build a snowman. "
Abel and Alex have been looking forward to the arrival of the New Year's Eve dinner since the afternoon, but the more nervous they are, the slower the time passes. When they wake up after sleeping, it is only after three o'clock, and there are still about two hours before the New Year's Eve dinner .
They were worrying about how to pass the two hours, when Bai Liang appeared at the door poking his head, seeing that they were already awake, Bai Liang's beautiful big eyes suddenly narrowed into narrow slits with a smile, full of ghostly ideas, and looked at them. He waved and said, "Brother, put on your clothes, let's go play in the garden."
Hearing this, Abel turned his head and glanced out the window. On winter afternoons in the north, the sun is always early and westward. Although it is still early, the sun is already showing signs of sunset, shining a warm yellow outside.
In such fine weather, not going out to play seemed a bit wasteful, Abel wanted to go out, but Alex, who was listening to music in his room, was lazy and didn't want to move.
In the end, Alex was dragged out by Bai Liang and Abel together. Shen Ruizhe and Dong Ya, who had already changed their clothes and were waiting for them downstairs, saw the strange posture of the three of them, their eyes widened.
Bai Liang coughed pretending to be serious, and whispered to the lazy Alex, "Brother, your sister-in-law is watching you."
If only Shen Ruizhe was around, Alex wouldn't care what his younger brother Shen Ruizhe thought of him, but now there is a future sister-in-law around, as a nobleman, educated as a gentleman since childhood, and an elder, Alex can't help but feel a little out of control , then stood up straight, arranged her clothes, and smiled gracefully at Dong Ya.
Shen Ruizhe felt that his smile was too coquettish, so he hurriedly stood in front of Dong Ya, keeping Dong Ya behind, in fact, he was afraid that Dong Ya would be fascinated by him.
Bai Liang went to the kennel to bring out Ala who had been imprisoned for a day, and when he came back to see the situation of their brothers, he couldn't help but find it funny, Shen Ruizhe's jealousy was too subtle.
Seeing that they were about to go out in his busy schedule, the butler quickly put down his work and went up to them to ask where they were going. When Bai Liang changed his shoes, he told him to go for a stroll in the garden, and the butler was very worried. , I have been nagging them to pay attention to safety and protection from the cold, so as not to fall or catch a cold.
The front yard was full of flowers and trees, and they were almost covered by snow. There was nothing to see. Bai Liang took Abel with one hand and dragged Alex with the other. He turned around to greet Dong Ya from time to time, and brought them to the back garden of the mansion.
There is a lake in the Shen family mansion. In the past, Shen Heng brought Bai Liang and the three brothers to fish, but now the weather is too cold, and the lake is covered with snow. They are afraid of slipping down accidentally, so everyone wisely did not approach, but It is to wait and see from afar.
Bai Liang introduced to Dong Ya enthusiastically: "There are a lot of fish in this lake, but it's a pity that it's not a good time for fishing. Senior sister, you can come here to fish with Brother Ruizhe when you come in summer or autumn. If you come out at night Taking a walk in the shade, you can also see the sky full of stars and fireflies, it’s very beautiful.”
Dong Ya stood not far from the lake and watched, imagining it according to the artistic conception Bai Liang described, it must be a very beautiful midsummer night.
It's just that she is an outsider who has never been married and is not engaged. If she visits her boyfriend's house frequently, will she appear very rude and lack self-respect?
Bai Liang saw what she was thinking from the slightly tangled brows, so he comforted her and said, "It's okay, senior sister, since you are standing here now, it proves that you have been recognized by our family, and everyone appreciates it." I like you, so naturally you are welcome to come here often, it is a certainty that you and brother Ruizhe will get married, it is only a matter of time, everyone knows it in their hearts, and they will not chew their ears."
When it came to getting married, Shen Ruizhe couldn't help showing embarrassment, then lightly knocked on Bai Liang's forehead, scolded him with a smile, "You little brat is thinking about complicated things every day."
Bai Liang pushed his paw away angrily, and muttered: "What is a brat, I'm your father's senior, you're a guy who's neither big nor young."
Shen Ruizhe laughed angrily at him: "Hey, why do you want to put on daddy's airs these days, little sticky."
Isn't this to act like an elder in front of the future daughter-in-law!Bai Liang thought angrily.
The few of them walked around the woods by the lake later, Bai Liang wanted to build a snowman at first, but how could he have imagined that when the sun was out for most of the day today, the snow would melt to pieces, and it would be difficult to pick up the snow. I don't feel anything anymore.
As a purebred sled dog, Ala naturally likes this kind of icy and snowy environment. Bai Liang took off the rope and let it move freely. He shook off the snow on his body again, and when he saw a bird landing on the snow looking for food, it jumped on it by surprise, and the woods were flying like cats and dogs for a while.
In the study room where Shen Heng lives, the windows face the lake and woods in the back garden. When designing this house, it was in consideration that the owner would be tired from working, so the windows faced the lake view, so that he could relax.
Because the laughter and laughter of the children outside was so lively, even though there was a long distance and a wall, Shen Heng, who was sitting in the study and working, could still hear their voices.One moment was Bai Liang's cheers, another moment his three sons' yelling, Dong Ya's laughter, and Allah's calling.
Shen Heng listened, and couldn't help being distracted, his attention was no longer on the documents, his thoughts had drifted out of the study in the direction of the sound, and he was even fantasizing about what was going on outside.
In the end, Shen Heng paused his work, poured himself a cup of coffee that the housekeeper had warmed for him before, walked to the window, opened a window, and leaned against the window to look at the forest by the lake.
The view from this window is very good, so Shen Heng saw a few small figures playing on the edge of the forest at a glance, several children and a dog chasing each other on the snow, making it covered in snow.
After Shen Heng drank a cup of coffee, he felt that it was almost time, so he walked back and turned off the computer, and then left the study.
Downstairs is setting up the New Year's Eve dinner and birthday party. The custom-made three-story cake has been delivered, and it is placed on a cart with a box. It is a big one.
Seeing him coming down, the housekeeper hurried over to ask him if he had any other comments. Shen Heng glanced at the dining room and then at the living room that had been cleaned up, and asked them to put the cake in the storage room first, so as not to eat later When the family's little ancestor saw the cake, he didn't want to eat.
The butler immediately ordered the people to do so, turned around and saw that Shen Heng had already walked to the door with his coat, and asked quickly: "Sir, where are you going? It's time for dinner in a while. If you are not here, Mr. Bai will come back to see I don't see you making trouble again."
Shen Heng smiled and said: "I just went out to get some air, and brought those children back for dinner."
The butler suddenly realized that when he saw him open the door and went out, he didn't forget to follow him a few steps, and said with concern: "The road outside is slippery, please walk carefully."
Shen Heng waved his hands without looking back, expressing that there is no need to worry about him.
When he went to the lake, Bai Liang and the others had already started throwing snowballs. They stood at the same starting line, holding snowballs in their hands, to see who could throw the furthest.
Originally they wanted to have a snowball fight, but they were persuaded by Dong Ya. Dong Ya felt that the weather was still too cold and they would catch a cold if they had a snowball fight, so they changed the rules of the game to the present one. Although the brothers felt that the fun was greatly reduced, But there is no way, Dong Ya is the only girl among them, as boys, they must respect the opinions of girls, this is the education they have received since childhood.
In terms of height, Bai Liang was at a disadvantage, his hands and feet were shorter than his brothers, so he naturally took the last place every time. He was so angry that he insisted on winning against his brothers before giving up.
Shen Heng looked at them not far away for a while. In order to win the game, Bai Liang threw the snowball with all his strength and almost jumped up. Because he was wearing too many clothes and it was inconvenient to move, he used too much force several times. Almost fell into the snow.
It might be difficult for Bai Liang to win. According to his bad temper, he might not be able to leave the venue until dark. Seeing that the time was almost up, Shen Heng walked over and waved to them, "It's time to go home for dinner."
Abel and Alex finally waited for the New Year's Eve dinner they had been longing for. They threw the snowballs in their hands to the ground and patted the snow on their bodies and walked towards their father. , also walked back reluctantly with his mouth flattened.
Shen Heng waited for him to move slowly in front of her, then took his hand, covered his hands that were a little bit frozen by the snow, and asked him if he was cold.
Bai Liang muttered in a low voice: "It's not cold, I haven't defeated my brothers yet."
Shen Heng laughed: "They are tall and big, they have an advantage over you. You go back and eat more and drink more milk. If you grow as tall as them, you will beat them."
Bai Liang pouted: "Height is determined innately. My father is not as tall as you. How could I be as tall as my brother and the others?"
Bai Liang and Shen Heng walked slowly, and when they got home, the New Year's Eve dinner had already been set, and the table was full of fish and meat.
The New Year's Eve dinner is very particular, everything should be a whole word, to take a good omen, a whole chicken and a duck, and a big fish, which symbolizes surplus every year, and sweet and sour pork ribs, which means that life is sour and sweet. Tasteful, but also with meat and vegetables, all kinds of grains.
The New Year's Eve dinner is a feast for Bai Liang, especially today as he is a birthday star, so naturally he has many privileges, he holds chicken legs in one hand and duck legs in the other, and only eats vegetables but not food, Shen Heng will not be as harsh on him as usual.
Because the family dinner was so lively, Bai Liang was so excited that he forgot about the birthday cake.If it were not for him to eat cake normally, he would be able to turn upside down, but today because he is so happy, he is already prepared that it doesn't matter if he doesn't eat cake.
After eating, the digestion was almost complete, and the sky was completely dark. The sound of fireworks and firecrackers was heard from far away, and Bai Liang couldn't sit still anymore, clamoring to go out to watch.
As soon as he got up, the headlights in the living room suddenly went out, and then there was a fire behind him, Bai Liang looked back, and saw a cake half the height of a person on the cart slowly approaching him.
Shen Ruizhe pushed the cake out, Dong Ya softly hummed the birthday song beside him, Abel and Alex clapped their hands along with the rhythm, Shen Heng smiled at him tenderly in the candlelight, all this was as warm as a dream.
When the cake arrived in front of him, Bai Liang realized that the cake was in the shape of a teddy bear. The top layer of the cake was in the shape of a bear's head. The column of the cake was covered with cream and sprinkled with chocolate shavings, just like the hair of a bear. Fruits are embellished, and the whole cake looks delicious and childlike.
22 candles were lit on the cake, and a sign made of white chocolate was inserted on the top, with the words "Happy Birthday every year" written in jam.
Bai Liang was both surprised and happy, he didn't know how to react for a while, Shen Ruizhe urged him to make a wish, so he hurriedly put his hands together, closed his eyes and made a wish.
The whole family, including the servants, shared the big cake. Bai Liang cut the cake himself, put it on a plate and distributed it to the rest of the family, and thanked them for their continuous care.
After eating the cake, it was the busiest time for fireworks outside. The urban area does not allow fireworks, so many people go to the suburbs every year to set off fireworks. The Shen family mansion is built in the suburbs, so they can see the fireworks set off by others.
There was the sound of firecrackers outside, and the laughter of the Spring Festival Gala inside the room. Bai Liang sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked up at the fireworks in the sky, but Shen Heng pulled him up and said that he had a birthday present for him.
Bai Liang heard that Shen Heng was going to give him a birthday present, so he followed Shen Heng away happily.Shen Heng took him up to the balcony on the second floor, and the usually steady and mature old man childishly covered his eyes to prevent him from looking.
"I'll count to three, two and one, and then you open your eyes." Shen Heng said in Bai Liang's ear.
Bai Liang seemed to be aware of what gift Shen Heng was going to give him, and he also heard the sound of fireworks bursting into the sky, but when he really opened his eyes to see, Bai Liang was still amazed by the fireworks all over the sky.
I don't know when the fireworks were planted in the yard. It is estimated that Shen Heng had someone set them up a long time ago. Row after row rose into the sky and exploded. Although it is a very old-fashioned heart-to-heart style, Bai Liang still feels very happy.
The fireworks lasted until twelve o'clock, and the last shot was accompanied by the ringing of the New Year's bell. The fireworks exploded in mid-air, and it could be vaguely seen that it was the word "year".
A few people who were originally downstairs came up at some time, and after the fireworks exploded, they said a happy new year in unison, and then wished Bai Liang a happy birthday.
Every minute and every second is just right, Bai Liang was born at the time when the old and new years are changing. At this moment 22 years ago, he came to this world and brought happiness and joy to many people.
Shen Heng regarded Bai Liang as a treasure, so Bai Liang's birthday was higher than his own, and it was on this day that God sent the best gift in his life to this world.
So at noon, the family eats a little simpler. When the host is busy posting the couplets, the helper opens a door from the kitchen, and then brings out a pot of porridge, with a few side dishes, and the lunch is settled in this way.
The boiled eggs were cut into slices, with a layer of sauce on top, a plate of mustard greens, a plate of cold vegetables, a small plate of bacon, and a soup. Compared with yesterday's dinner, it was indeed much inferior.

Bai Liang introduced to Dong Ya enthusiastically: "There are a lot of fish in this lake, but it's a pity that it's not a good time for fishing. Senior sister, you can come here to fish with Brother Ruizhe when you come in summer or autumn. If you come out at night Taking a walk in the shade, you can also see the sky full of stars and fireflies, it’s very beautiful.”
Dong Ya stood not far from the lake and watched, imagining it according to the artistic conception Bai Liang described, it must be a very beautiful midsummer night.
It's just that she is an outsider who has never been married and is not engaged. If she visits her boyfriend's house frequently, will she appear very rude and lack self-respect?
Bai Liang saw what she was thinking from the slightly tangled brows, so he comforted her and said, "It's okay, senior sister, since you are standing here now, it proves that you have been recognized by our family, and everyone appreciates it." I like you, so naturally you are welcome to come here often, it is a certainty that you and brother Ruizhe will get married, it is only a matter of time, everyone knows it in their hearts, and they will not chew their ears."
When it came to getting married, Shen Ruizhe couldn't help showing embarrassment, then lightly knocked on Bai Liang's forehead, scolded him with a smile, "You little brat is thinking about complicated things every day."
Bai Liang pushed his paw away angrily, and muttered: "What is a brat, I'm your father's senior, you're a guy who's neither big nor young."
Shen Ruizhe laughed angrily at him: "Hey, why do you want to put on daddy's airs these days, little sticky."
Isn't this to act like an elder in front of the future daughter-in-law!Bai Liang thought angrily.
The few of them walked around the woods by the lake later, Bai Liang wanted to build a snowman at first, but how could he have imagined that when the sun was out for most of the day today, the snow would melt to pieces, and it would be difficult to pick up the snow. I don't feel anything anymore.
As a purebred sled dog, Ala naturally likes this kind of icy and snowy environment. Bai Liang took off the rope and let it move freely. He shook off the snow on his body again, and when he saw a bird landing on the snow looking for food, it jumped on it by surprise, and the woods were flying like cats and dogs for a while.
In the study room where Shen Heng lives, the windows face the lake and woods in the back garden. When designing this house, it was in consideration that the owner would be tired from working, so the windows faced the lake view, so that he could relax.
Because the laughter and laughter of the children outside was so lively, even though there was a long distance and a wall, Shen Heng, who was sitting in the study and working, could still hear their voices.One moment was Bai Liang's cheers, another moment his three sons' yelling, Dong Ya's laughter, and Allah's calling.
Shen Heng listened, and couldn't help being distracted, his attention was no longer on the documents, his thoughts had drifted out of the study in the direction of the sound, and he was even fantasizing about what was going on outside.
In the end, Shen Heng paused his work, poured himself a cup of coffee that the housekeeper had warmed for him before, walked to the window, opened a window, and leaned against the window to look at the forest by the lake.
The view from this window is very good, so Shen Heng saw a few small figures playing on the edge of the forest at a glance, several children and a dog chasing each other on the snow, making it covered in snow.
After Shen Heng drank a cup of coffee, he felt that it was almost time, so he walked back and turned off the computer, and then left the study.
Downstairs is setting up the New Year's Eve dinner and birthday party. The custom-made three-story cake has been delivered, and it is placed on a cart with a box. It is a big one.
Seeing him coming down, the housekeeper hurried over to ask him if he had any other comments. Shen Heng glanced at the dining room and then at the living room that had been cleaned up, and asked them to put the cake in the storage room first, so as not to eat later When the family's little ancestor saw the cake, he didn't want to eat.
The butler immediately ordered the people to do so, turned around and saw that Shen Heng had already walked to the door with his coat, and asked quickly: "Sir, where are you going? It's time for dinner in a while. If you are not here, Mr. Bai will come back to see I don't see you making trouble again."
Shen Heng smiled and said: "I just went out to get some air, and brought those children back for dinner."
The butler suddenly realized that when he saw him open the door and went out, he didn't forget to follow him a few steps, and said with concern: "The road outside is slippery, please walk carefully."
Shen Heng waved his hands without looking back, expressing that there is no need to worry about him.
When he went to the lake, Bai Liang and the others had already started throwing snowballs. They stood at the same starting line, holding snowballs in their hands, to see who could throw the furthest.
Originally they wanted to have a snowball fight, but they were persuaded by Dong Ya. Dong Ya felt that the weather was still too cold and they would catch a cold if they had a snowball fight, so they changed the rules of the game to the present one. Although the brothers felt that the fun was greatly reduced, But there is no way, Dong Ya is the only girl among them, as boys, they must respect the opinions of girls, this is the education they have received since childhood.
In terms of height, Bai Liang was at a disadvantage, his hands and feet were shorter than his brothers, so he naturally took the last place every time. He was so angry that he insisted on winning against his brothers before giving up.
Shen Heng looked at them not far away for a while. In order to win the game, Bai Liang threw the snowball with all his strength and almost jumped up. Because he was wearing too many clothes and it was inconvenient to move, he used too much force several times. Almost fell into the snow.
It might be difficult for Bai Liang to win. According to his bad temper, he might not be able to leave the venue until dark. Seeing that the time was almost up, Shen Heng walked over and waved to them, "It's time to go home for dinner."
Abel and Alex finally waited for the New Year's Eve dinner they had been longing for. They threw the snowballs in their hands to the ground and patted the snow on their bodies and walked towards their father. , also walked back reluctantly with his mouth flattened.
Shen Heng waited for him to move slowly in front of her, then took his hand, covered his hands that were a little bit frozen by the snow, and asked him if he was cold.
Bai Liang muttered in a low voice: "It's not cold, I haven't defeated my brothers yet."
Shen Heng laughed: "They are tall and big, they have an advantage over you. You go back and eat more and drink more milk. If you grow as tall as them, you will beat them."
Bai Liang pouted: "Height is determined innately. My father is not as tall as you. How could I be as tall as my brother and the others?"
Bai Liang and Shen Heng walked slowly, and when they got home, the New Year's Eve dinner had already been set, and the table was full of fish and meat.
The New Year's Eve dinner is very particular, everything should be a whole word, to take a good omen, a whole chicken and a duck, and a big fish, which symbolizes surplus every year, and sweet and sour pork ribs, which means that life is sour and sweet. Tasteful, but also with meat and vegetables, all kinds of grains.
The New Year's Eve dinner is a feast for Bai Liang, especially today as he is a birthday star, so naturally he has many privileges, he holds chicken legs in one hand and duck legs in the other, and only eats vegetables but not food, Shen Heng will not be as harsh on him as usual.
Because the family dinner was so lively, Bai Liang was so excited that he forgot about the birthday cake.If it were not for him to eat cake normally, he would be able to turn upside down, but today because he is so happy, he is already prepared that it doesn't matter if he doesn't eat cake.
After eating, the digestion was almost complete, and the sky was completely dark. The sound of fireworks and firecrackers was heard from far away, and Bai Liang couldn't sit still anymore, clamoring to go out to watch.
As soon as he got up, the headlights in the living room suddenly went out, and then there was a fire behind him, Bai Liang looked back, and saw a cake half the height of a person on the cart slowly approaching him.
Shen Ruizhe pushed the cake out, Dong Ya softly hummed the birthday song beside him, Abel and Alex clapped their hands along with the rhythm, Shen Heng smiled at him tenderly in the candlelight, all this was as warm as a dream.
When the cake arrived in front of him, Bai Liang realized that the cake was in the shape of a teddy bear. The top layer of the cake was in the shape of a bear's head. The column of the cake was covered with cream and sprinkled with chocolate shavings, just like the hair of a bear. Fruits are embellished, and the whole cake looks delicious and childlike.
22 candles were lit on the cake, and a sign made of white chocolate was inserted on the top, with the words "Happy Birthday every year" written in jam.
Bai Liang was both surprised and happy, he didn't know how to react for a while, Shen Ruizhe urged him to make a wish, so he hurriedly put his hands together, closed his eyes and made a wish.
The whole family, including the servants, shared the big cake. Bai Liang cut the cake himself, put it on a plate and distributed it to the rest of the family, and thanked them for their continuous care.
After eating the cake, it was the busiest time for fireworks outside. The urban area does not allow fireworks, so many people go to the suburbs every year to set off fireworks. The Shen family mansion is built in the suburbs, so they can see the fireworks set off by others.
There was the sound of firecrackers outside, and the laughter of the Spring Festival Gala inside the room. Bai Liang sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked up at the fireworks in the sky, but Shen Heng pulled him up and said that he had a birthday present for him.
Bai Liang heard that Shen Heng was going to give him a birthday present, so he followed Shen Heng away happily.Shen Heng took him up to the balcony on the second floor, and the usually steady and mature old man childishly covered his eyes to prevent him from looking.
"I'll count to three, two and one, and then you open your eyes." Shen Heng said in Bai Liang's ear.
Bai Liang seemed to be aware of what gift Shen Heng was going to give him, and he also heard the sound of fireworks bursting into the sky, but when he really opened his eyes to see, Bai Liang was still amazed by the fireworks all over the sky.
I don't know when the fireworks were planted in the yard. It is estimated that Shen Heng had someone set them up a long time ago. Row after row rose into the sky and exploded. Although it is a very old-fashioned heart-to-heart style, Bai Liang still feels very happy.
The fireworks lasted until twelve o'clock, and the last shot was accompanied by the ringing of the New Year's bell. The fireworks exploded in mid-air, and it could be vaguely seen that it was the word "year".
A few people who were originally downstairs came up at some time, and after the fireworks exploded, they said a happy new year in unison, and then wished Bai Liang a happy birthday.
Every minute and every second is just right, Bai Liang was born at the time when the old and new years are changing. At this moment 22 years ago, he came to this world and brought happiness and joy to many people.
Shen Heng regarded Bai Liang as a treasure, so Bai Liang's birthday was higher than his own, and it was on this day that God sent the best gift in his life to this world.
