Birthday wish?
Looking at the crowd of onlookers, the little girl couldn't help but feel a little dazed, so she timidly grabbed Chen Xi's arm.
She looked like she had stage fright …
In fact, Aunt Zhang had celebrated her birthday before, but she had never mentioned anything about birthday wishes.
After all, she was old and naturally did not know much about foreign culture.
In the past, her family was poor. A red egg and a bowl of longevity noodles were the best birthday gifts for children.
As for birthday cakes …
In Aunt Zhang's eyes, those were just snacks that children liked to eat.
Since Niannian liked them, she would buy them for her.
Therefore, Aunt Zhang did not have any concept of making a birthday wish on her birthday, so she had never arranged for it for her.
"Niannian, what birthday wish do you have? Today is your birthday, so you just have to make a wish now. After you blow out the candles, your wish will come true … "
Chen Xi hugged the little girl and explained patiently in her ear.
The little girl curled up in Chen Xi's arms. After looking up at Chen Xi, she pouted and shook her head, as if she could not think of anything she wanted.
Seeing this, Chen Xi tried to guide her, "Niannian, you can only make a birthday wish once a year. Don't you have anything in particular that you want?"
"For example, if you want to eat something, play something, or go somewhere, you can tell me now. Daddy promises to satisfy you!"
Hearing this, the little girl seemed to finally understand the concept of 'birthday wish'.
Therefore, she pouted and asked hesitantly, "Can I really make anything come true?"
"Ahem …"
This question made Chen Xi pause for a moment.
At this point, if the little girl made a wish but could not make it come true, wouldn't she be very disappointed?
After all, this was the first time she made a birthday wish.
Chen Xi was a little hesitant about whether to make a promise.
However, on second thought, she was just a five-year-old child. Could she make a wish that was so difficult to make?
Therefore, he answered with certainty, "Yes, Father can promise you that no matter what you wish for, it will come true!"
When he said this, Chen Xi's tone was particularly solemn, which made Qin Ruoying, who was beside him, couldn't help but glance at him.
This sentence was …
What about the father's promise to his daughter?
The little fellow didn't feel anything special, so when she heard Chen Xi's reply, she smiled happily and said, "Okay! Then I have a wish! "
With that said, under the guidance of Chen Xi, she stood on the bench facing the cake. Then, she put her hands together, closed her eyes, and prepared to make a wish.
Looking at her serious face, the crowd immediately quieted down, afraid to disturb this cute little girl.
She didn't think for long before she suddenly opened her eyes and said excitedly, "My wish is …"
"PaPa and MaMa have to stay by my side forever!"
After that, the little thing puffed up its little mouth and tried its best to blow out all five candles on the cake.
A child's mind was not so complicated. She said what she thought.
However, it was such a simple and somewhat unrealistic wish that directly displayed the thoughts in the depths of her heart.
Chen Xi held the little fellow in his arms and didn't speak immediately, but the crowd around them burst into laughter.
After hearing the little fellow's wish, a middle-aged man with a child immediately said with a smile, "Silly girl, when you get married, how can your parents stay by your side? At that time, you'll want to drive them away … "
"That's right. A married daughter is like spilled water … My child won't come back to accompany us a few times a year unless she is wronged at home …"
"If she doesn't come to accompany you, you can go to her. Do you think she dares to drive you out of the house?"
"Hey, they are busy making grandchildren. How can I disturb them …"
This conversation also amused the onlookers and made them laugh one after another.
However, the little fellow was not happy.
She immediately pouted and shouted unhappily, "No! I don't want to get married! I want to be with PaPa and MaMa! Forever and ever! "
After saying that, she even made a face with an unconvinced expression, which immediately made everyone laugh out loud.
"Oh, your child is so cute …"
"If my child is so cute, I will consider not letting her marry in the future …"
"Don't, you have to ask the child if she is willing to do this first. Otherwise, it will be too late for you to regret it if they elope …"
"Don't jinx it …"
The crowd of onlookers kept talking, and the atmosphere was very lively.
Seeing this, the little fellow pulled Qin Ruoying's hand, pointed to the cake on the table and shouted, "MaMa, I want to eat cake!"
"Silly child …"
Hearing this, Qin Ruoying rubbed her head with a smile.
You are a child, but you don't know that your parents have already taken it seriously.
The couple looked at each other silently.
After that, Chen Xi gently pecked the little fellow's face, then stood up and asked the crowd to eat the cake with Qin Ruoying.
Good things naturally had to be shared.
There were a lot of people, so the birthday girl was only given a small piece of such a big cake.
Although there wasn't much cake, when she saw that everyone was holding her birthday cake, her little face bloomed with joy.
So many people were celebrating her birthday with her. She was so happy!
…
After eating the cake, the crowd of onlookers left their blessings and dispersed.
The reason why the couple chose to bring the little fellow here for her birthday today was mainly because there was a parent-child camping area in the park.
Therefore, when Chen Xi opened the rented tent by the lake, the little fellow immediately got in excitedly, and then excitedly turned over and over on the mat.
"PaPa! Come in! MaMa! Come in, come in! "
At this moment, it was already evening, and the sky was red.
The family of three lay in the tent, quietly looking up at the sunset.
The green grass, the clear lake, the towering trees, and the sound of insects and birds from time to time …
At this moment, the family of three was particularly peaceful.
The little fellow put her head on Chen Xi's chest, quietly watching the sunset dye the sky and the water red.
Perhaps she also realized that the wish she had just made was not reliable, so she could not help muttering, "PaPa, MaMa …"
"Hmm? What's wrong? "
"Don't leave me again, okay? I don't want to be a wild child … "
Hearing this, Chen Xi suddenly felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
Even with his age and experience, he could not control the sudden burst of emotion for a while.
Therefore, Chen Xi immediately hugged the little fellow with one hand and Qin Ruoying with the other, and replied very solemnly, "Okay."
This warm atmosphere seemed to have infected Qin Ruoying, so she followed the little fellow and leaned her head on Chen Xi's chest.
Then, the mother and daughter leaned on Chen Xi's chest like this, blinking their eyes and looking at each other.
"Niannian, come on, Dad will teach you a song?"
"Is it Little Star?"
"No, no, no, I'll teach you a new song today …"
"Okay!"
"Then listen carefully, I'll sing it once first …"
After that, Chen Xi began to hum softly.
This song was very simple, and the melody was not very complicated, so after listening to it twice, the little fellow could hum along with Chen Xi.
Chen Xi's low voice, coupled with Qin Ruoying's quiet and gentle voice, plus the little fellow's clear and melodious childish voice.
This song, "Insects Fly," which always gave people a feeling of sadness, was unexpectedly sung by this family of three with a happy and cheerful taste ….
… …
The dark sky hung low, followed by the bright stars.
"Insects fly, insects fly, who are you thinking of?"
"The stars in the sky shed tears, the roses on the ground withered."
"The cold wind blows, the cold wind blows, as long as you're with me."
"Insects fly, flowers sleep, pairs after pairs are beautiful."
"I'm not afraid of darkness, I'm only afraid of heartbreak."
