While Murphy and Yang Yi were singing, Yang Luoqi, Lu Xiaoyu, and the other children looked at Xi Xi enviously. Even Lu Weisha, who did not understand the song, felt that the melody was nice. She happily clapped her hands with her friends and twisted her body to the rhythm.
But don't think that Xixi is a bright moon surrounded by stars! The two little guys were indifferent to this.
Needless to say, one of them was Lan Xin!
Lan Xin was not in the mood to watch the performance because she had finished a piece of cake. Yes, she still wanted to eat more and did not think about whether there would be more delicious food later!
Following the principle of enjoying herself today, the little girl went to the back of the table, avoided the eyes of the crowd, and used the plastic knife that Xi Xi had placed on the table to cut a big piece of cake for herself!
Lanxin was not as fastidious as Xixi. The cake rolled into her plate. The cake lay softly on the plate, and her fingers were stained with cream. What did it matter? She could just lick it off later!
Seeing such a big piece of cake on her plate, Lan Xin burped with satisfaction. She looked at Tong Tong, who was sitting on the chair beside her and eating the cake with a small spoon.
Tong Tong was the other one who was indifferent. He had heard his mother sing this song before and did not feel that it was anything new. He had sung this song to Huawei before. Sister? Hmph, it was only secondhand!
Therefore, Tong Tong was arranged by Murphy to eat the cake by himself. Although Wu Jingjing was looking after him, the little boy was addicted to the delicious cake. His nose, chin, and clothes were stained with cream. How could he have the time to watch his parents' performance?
Let alone his parents, even Sister Lan Xin looked at him and smiled. Tong Tong did not even look at her.
…
There weren't many performances at the birthday party this time. It wasn't like the past when everyone performed for Xi Xi. Only Yang Yi and Murphy sang a song for Xi Xi. Other than that, everyone gave Xi Xi birthday wishes when they sang the birthday song.
However, Xi Xi was still very happy. After all, all the friends she often played with were there. They did not pursue any program. They played from morning to afternoon and ran all over the villa. Laughter filled every corner. Such simple happiness was enough to make Xi Xi feel satisfied!
Around 4: 30 in the afternoon, the little friends and their parents left one after another, and the villa gradually quieted down.
Xi Xi was very reluctant and even a little sad. Fortunately, her father coaxed her with the big "gimmick" of opening presents.
This year, Xi Xi had quite a lot of presents (that could be opened for her). Almost every child brought a birthday present for Xi Xi when they came with their parents.
Yang Yi did not open the presents at noon. Instead, he waited for all the children to go home and the villa to be quiet. Only then did Yang Yi pull out the big basket with the presents and give it to Xi Xi.
After all, everyone's situation was different, and the presents they gave were different. Yang Yi did not want Xi Xi to open the presents in front of them. If there was a comparison, there would be hurt. What was there to compare? (Of course, this would be a slap in the face soon!)
For example, the birthday present that Xi Xi was opening from Lu Xiaoyu was not expensive at all. It was just a painting that Lu Xiaoyu had drawn herself. It depicted a scene of them playing table tennis. The painting was a little abstract, but Xi Xi liked it very much!
However, if she opened it in front of them, Lu Xiaoyu might feel inferior when she saw other children giving better presents to Xi Xi. Naturally, she would not feel good about it!
…
"Xi Xi, ask Chenchen to help you. Look at him, he wants to learn from his sister and open the presents together!" Murphy watched Xi Xi open the presents from the side. Her ears were filled with the little girl's cheers from time to time. Her hands were itching to open the presents, but she was too embarrassed to fight with her daughter to open the presents. She smiled and nudged Tong Tong, who was looking at his sister enviously.
Tong Tong was a little dumbfounded. He turned his little head and looked at his mother in confusion.
That's not right. I'm just envious of my sister's ability to take out so many magical little things from those big and small boxes. How did I become wanting to help?
"Okay! Little brother, help me open the presents! " Xi Xi was in a good mood as she opened the presents. Her eyes were squinted from smiling. Her slender and delicate eyelashes covered her eyes like air bangs. She was as beautiful as the stars in the sky.
Little Mommy had no choice but to sit beside her older sister. She imitated her older sister's actions and helped her older sister tear the wrapping paper off the gift box.
"Here, follow this line and tear it. Mom will teach you!" Murphy said excitedly. She sat next to Chenchen and bent over with a grin. She held Tong Tong's hand and taught him step by step.
The basket of presents was quickly opened. The last one was Lanzhou Kai and his family's birthday present for Xi Xi!
After Yang Yi's reminder, Murphy gently opened the box and took out the diamond necklace for Xi Xi.
"Wow! It's a necklace! "Xi Xi's eyes lit up and she exclaimed happily.
It was indeed a beautiful diamond necklace. The necklace was in the shape of a snowflake and was inlaid with many sparkling and translucent diamonds. It was obviously very expensive!
Of course, this was nothing compared to Lanzhou Kai's or Yang Yi's wealth. Usually, when Yang Yi and Murphy celebrated anniversaries, Yang Yi would ask someone to help him buy the jewelry from overseas auctions and give it to Murphy. It was much more expensive than this necklace.
Wu Jingjing's jewelry was even more expensive. She often went to auctions to buy her favorite works of art and jewelry. Her family's collection was even more exaggerated. Perhaps this necklace was what Wu Jingjing said when she explained it to Lanzhou Kai. It was "not too expensive" and she gave it to Xi Xi so that she wouldn't attract too much attention when she grew up …
Xi Xi hurriedly got up from the ground and ran to her mother's side excitedly. She leaned on her mother's arm and hugged her mother's neck curiously and nervously. She giggled and looked at the necklace.
"Is it beautiful?" Murphy asked Xi Xi with a smile. She held up the necklace with both hands and the snowflake diamonds that were refracted by the light were dangling gently.
"It's beautiful!" Xi Xi nodded quickly and said happily, "Mom, I don't have a necklace! You have a lot, but I finally have one! "
Murphy said with a smile, "Then you can ask your PaPa to buy it for you in the future. He definitely won't be reluctant to buy it for you!"
After teasing Yang Yi, Murphy asked Xi Xi to bend her head. She untied the necklace and put it on Xi Xi. After putting it on, the little girl happily ran to the mirror. Although she wasn't wearing a dress, she still happily twirled around.
Wow! The little girl in the mirror is so beautiful! The beautiful necklace can set off her pretty little face … Oh, this inner monologue made Xi Xi feel a little embarrassed. She giggled and shyly raised her hands to hold her red little face.
"Ahem!" Yang Yi saw that Xi Xi liked the birthday gift very much and decisively became unhappy. He coughed twice and said, "Xi Xi, let Mom put the necklace away for you. You haven't opened the gift I and Mom gave you yet!"
"There's a gift? PaPa and Mom's gift! I want it, I want it! " Xi Xi cried out in surprise. Like a crab, she turned sideways and bounced back with her long legs.
In the little girl's heart, her parents' gift was always the best. Therefore, Xi Xi was even happier than when she saw the diamond necklace.
How could Yang Yi let her down!
