Chapter 424 An Nuan's Birthday
Seeing their son come back, the old couple Tan Zhaohe and Li Yulan were also very happy.
"Son, you're back."
"Well, since you're back, take Xinxin to play, I'll go cook."
In the yard, the parents said with a smile.
Tan Yue put his backpack on the table, and then picked up Tan Xin beside him.
"Xinxin, do you miss your uncle?" Tan Yue asked with a smile.
Tan Xin nodded and said, "Yes, Xinxin misses uncle very much."
The little girl nodded heavily while speaking.
Tan Yue smiled and said, "Really? Xinxin misses uncle so much?"
Tan Xin said, "I told Mommy, uncle, can you not go out of town to work? If you go out of town, Xinxin won't see you for a long time."
While Tan Xin was talking, An Nuan next to her glared at Tan Xin and said, "Xinxin, what nonsense are you talking about, uncle has to go to work outside."
Tan Xin stuck out her tongue.
Next to him, his mother picked up Tan Yue's bag and said, "Xiao Yue, I'll take your bag to the house. What are you carrying? It's so heavy."
Tan Yue nodded and said, "Okay, Mom, take it to the house for me."
Mom hummed, carried Tan Yue's bag, and walked into the house.
Tan Yue watched his mother enter the house, handed Tan Xin to his father, and said, "Dad, you take care of Xinxin, I'll go talk to my mother for a while."
Dad nodded, took Tan Xin from Tan Yue's arms, and said to Tan Yue, "Tell your mother to cook quickly, Xinxin just said she was hungry."
Tan Yue responded, smiled and touched Tan Xin's head, "Okay, I brought snacks when I came, I'll take them to Xinxin to fill her stomach later."
After Tan Yue finished speaking, he nodded to his sister-in-law An Nuan who was standing next to him, and then went into the house.
In the house, his mother put her backpack on the sofa, and then packed things in the cabinet.
Tan Yue looked around the house. It was unknown who had come up with this idea. Above the main room, two strings of red balloons were hung, forming a big cross.
"Son."
When Tan Yue came in, his mother called out.
Tan Yue came to his mother and asked, "Mom, I want to ask you something."
Mom said, "What is it?"
Tan Yue said, "Didn't you say you introduced a white-collar worker to my sister-in-law? I heard they are getting along well?"
Mom smiled and nodded, with some pride on her face, saying, "Yes, I think they are almost together, so I called you and asked you to come back and celebrate your sister-in-law's birthday. When Xiao Nuan marries someone else in the future, it will be difficult for her to come back to our place, let alone celebrate her birthday here."
After listening to his mother's words, Tan Yue was happy for his sister-in-law, but he also felt a little uncomfortable. After he traveled through time, he received a lot of care from An Nuan. Tan Yue really treated An Nuan, who was considerate and gentle, as a relative. If An Nuan got married, she might not be able to come back for a long time in the future, and she would not be casual.
Tan Yue nodded and said, "That's good. It's not easy for my sister-in-law to raise a child alone. I guess everyone in her hometown has forgotten her. No one has come to see her for so many years."
My mother also nodded and said, "Yes, if your sister-in-law gave birth to a boy, her hometown would probably pay more attention to it. She gave birth to a daughter, alas."
Tan Yue rolled his eyes and said, "I think it's better to have a daughter than a son."
At this point, Tan Yue looked at his mother and asked, "Mom, do you think it's better for me to have a son or a daughter in the future?"
Hearing this, his mother glanced at Tan Yue and said, "I'm not an old-fashioned person. Whether it's a son or a daughter, I'll pay more attention to it. Whether it's a daughter, I like it. "
Tan Yue laughed and said, "My mother is so nice."
The mother hummed and said, "Your mother is very nice, but you have to find me a daughter-in-law first. I don't care whether you give birth to a son or a daughter, but you must give birth to one. Otherwise, who will take care of you when you are old?"
Tan Yue hummed and said, "Mom, I know. If there is a chance, I will bring you a daughter-in-law."
The mother hummed. Although she likes An Nuan and the little girl Tan Xin very much now, An Nuan is not her biological daughter-in-law after all, and Tan Xin is not her biological granddaughter. Although she will love them all the same, the feeling is still different after all.
The feeling of blood connection.
Tan Yue told his mother to cook quickly, and then took out a few bags of snacks from his backpack and walked to the yard to feed the little girl.
These snacks were bought by Chen Ye. According to Tan Yue's personality, he would definitely not eat these things. Tan Yue has a habit of not eating anything when he is outside in a car or on a plane, and tries not to drink water.
So Tan Yue basically did not touch the things Chen Ye bought for him. Now all the snacks are cheap for the little girl, because the snacks Chen Ye picked are really good.
Tan Yue opened the snack packaging bag and handed it to Tan Xin, asking her to eat it by herself. Then he looked around the yard and did not see An Nuan. He asked his father next to him: "Dad, where is my sister-in-law?"
Dad said: "Your sister-in-law went to the kitchen to wash vegetables."
Tan Yue nodded, patted the snack crumbs on his hands, stood up and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, An Nuan was washing meat.
An Nuan turned around and saw Tan Yue, saying: "Xiao Yue."
Tan Yue shouted: "Sister-in-law."
Tan Yue glanced at the meat that An Nuan was washing and asked: "Is this chicken?"
An Nuan shook his head and said with a smile: "No, this is rabbit meat. My uncle met a rabbit seller yesterday and bought one. He cut it up."
Tan Yue's mouth opened into an O shape.
An Nuan saw Tan Yue looking strange and asked in confusion: "Xiao Yue, what's wrong with you?"
Tan Yue blinked and said, "Are we actually going to eat rabbits?"
An Nuan was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Tan Yue meant, and asked: "Xiao Yue, don't you eat rabbit meat?"
Tan Yue shook his head and quickly explained: "No, I am not opposed to rabbit meat."
I just subconsciously remembered an old joke and blurted it out.
Of course, in Tan Yue's impression, rabbit meat is actually not delicious.
Watching An Nuan prepare the ingredients, Tan Yue felt the aura of a good wife and loving mother.
Taking a breath, Tan Yue asked: "Sister-in-law, I heard from mom that you and the white-collar student are making good progress?"
Tan Yue didn't know the name of the person his mother introduced to An Nuan, so he used Mr. Bai Qianxian as a reference, and he had a good relationship with An Nuan, at least for now, so the reference was that An Nuan also not going to be mad.
After listening to Tan Yue's words, An Nuan's hand washing the meat paused slightly, and then remained silent for about ten seconds before speaking: "Xiao Yue, I'm telling you the truth, don't tell your aunt."
Tan Yue raised his eyebrows. Listening to An Nuan's words, there seemed to be something going on.
Tan Yue nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
An Nuan said: "Actually, the Dr. Baixiang that my aunt introduced to me, uh, we have lost contact for a long time, and we only had a few meals."
Tan Yue was stunned when he heard this, and said in astonishment: "Ah? This is it?"
An Nuan said: "Actually, I have no plans to find another one for the time being. At least now Xinxin is still young. I can only focus on Xinxin alone. I really can't take care of other things. If I really want to find another It may take a few years to find one.”
"However, my aunt is also worried that I will be lonely and alone, so she has been making arrangements to introduce me to them. In the past few years, she has introduced me to twenty people."
Speaking of this, An Nuan showed a smile on his face, feeling moved, helpless, and amused.
"I just thought, that was not the way to go. I refused to drop one of them, and my aunt introduced me to another one. I thought about it, and this time, I didn't tell my aunt that I and the white-haired guy were not going to have a baby. The right thing to do.”
When Tan Yue heard this, his eyes twitched slightly.
What the sister-in-law didn't know was that she didn't tell her mother that she and Bai Qianqiao had broken up. Her mother thought that the two of them were going to get married, and she thought that An Nuan might get married soon and asked her to come back. Attend this "last birthday party".
Unexpectedly, my sister-in-law didn't tell my mother. It really made a joke.
However, Tan Yue did not tell An Nuan these things.
Tan Yue nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this matter."
An Nuan smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Xiao Yue."
The two chatted for a while, and Tan Yue didn't leave until his mother walked into the kitchen wearing a scarf.
During this period, Tan Yue also wanted to strike, but the two women tightly controlled the kitchen and prevented him from getting too far.
In fact, Tan Yue's cooking skills have always been very good.
In order to cook delicious food for Qi Xue, the original owner put a lot of thought into cooking. He even went to learn how to cook from the chef of a five-star hotel in Jishui City.
Tan Yue also knew that his mother and An Nuan were worried that he would be tired after flying back and would not let him do anything.
Unable to move his hands, Tan Yue had to wait for a while before moving his mouth while eating.
While teasing the little girl Tan Xin, she was waiting for her meal.
At half past eleven, there was a knock on the door outside the yard. Dad went out for a while, and then came back with a big cake.
Tan Yue took the cake and said with a smile, "Who ordered it?"
Judging from my sister-in-law's intentions, she probably didn't want to celebrate her birthday, but her parents forced her to have a grand birthday. I guess my sister-in-law didn't order it.
But are Mom and Dad still so fashionable?
In the past, for birthdays, I would just cook a few dishes at home, but I had never ordered a cake.
Sure enough, dad smiled and said: "Your mother ordered it for your sister-in-law."
Tan Yue laughed. His mother really didn't say anything to An Nuan. Tan Yue felt that he was being compared to An Nuan.
Next to him, Tan Xin also saw the cake and shouted to eat the cake.
After a while, the food was ready and brought to the dining table in the yard one by one.
Today's meal was very sumptuous. My mother and sister-in-law cooked ten dishes, including things that could run on the ground, fly in the sky, and swim in the water.
After washing their hands, the family gathered around the dining table and started eating.
Mom took a piece of meat for An Nuan, then took a piece of meat for Tan Xin, and finally asked Tan Yue: "Son, when will you go back?"
Tan Yue took a ball with a spoon, blew it gently, put it in his mouth and ate it. These were fresh balls made at home. They tasted very good and chewy. After hearing his mother's question, Tan Yue put down the spoon. , said: "Mom, I'm leaving tomorrow morning, and I have to go to the company in the afternoon."
My mother shook her head and said helplessly: "Busy, busy, busy, just be busy."
In the past, when my son was in Jishui City, because of Qi Xue, I didn't see him once for half a year, and I didn't feel much. Now my son has gone to the capital. Although he comes back every few months, he always feels a deep sense of separation and melancholy in his heart.
Seeing that Li Yulan was not in a very good mood, An Nuan smiled and said, "Aunt, Xiao Yue is now a well-known public figure, and is highly valued by the boss in their company. His career prospects are limitless in the future."
Hearing An Nuan's words, the mother's mood recovered.
At this time, Tan Xin, who was eating obediently beside her, raised her head, her cheeks were puffed up, and then she spit out a piece of bone from her mouth and asked in confusion: "Mommy, what kind of meat is this? It's not chicken, right?"
Like Tan Yue, she mistook rabbit meat for chicken.
An Nuan smiled lightly, looked up at Tan Yue, and then lowered her head to her daughter and said, "Xinxin, this is rabbit meat."
"Rabbit meat?"
Tan Xin was stunned for a moment, then widened her eyes and said with a puffy mouth: "Mommy, is this rabbit meat?"
An Nuan nodded and said, "Yes, it's rabbit meat."
Hearing this, Tan Xin's little face instantly became a small bun.
"Mommy, rabbits are so cute, how can they be made so unpalatable."
Tan Xin smacked her lips and said.
An Nuan raised her hand and gently patted Tan Xin's forehead, "How is it bad?"
Tan Yue: "."
After dinner, the food was cleared and the table was cleared.
The big cake was unpacked and placed in the middle of the table. In fact, at this time, everyone was full, and eating cake was really just to taste it.
Well, Tan Xin was an exception. She had a round belly just now, but she still wanted to eat a big plate of cake.
It was still the same process, blowing out the candles, An Nuan made a wish, and An Nuan cut the cake.
While An Nuan was cutting the cake, Tan Yue got up and went back to the house. From the backpack he brought back, he took out a delicate rose-red gift box. The gift box was only the size of a fist, and the appearance was bright and gorgeous. It was dotted with exquisite patterns and sparkling diamonds. It looked very high-end.
When Tan Yue walked out with the gift box, he attracted everyone's attention.
"Wow, uncle, the box in your hand is so beautiful." Tan Xin was holding a fork, waiting to eat the cake. When she saw the gift box in Tan Yue's hand, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed.
Tan Yue smiled, walked to An Nuan, and said, "Sister-in-law, today is your birthday. This is the gift I picked for you. See if you like it. I saw some female colleagues in our company chose this brand."
An Nuan was surprised and covered her mouth with her hand.
Next to her, my mother looked at the gift box that Tan Yue took out with a strange expression on her face. She blurted out a sentence that embarrassed An Nuan and Tan Yue.
