Chapter 160 Birthday
A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and there are still five days until the three brothers' birthdays.
Gu Qingyin's cake was already done, and at least she was very satisfied with it.
Huo Yunjing recalled this month of hard teaching and wished he could burst into tears. It was so difficult!
Hua Xin also breathed a sigh of relief, finally no longer having to eat the whole egg feast!
On their birthdays, the three brothers all made time.
Huo Xingye postponed a few meetings that were not important, Huo Xinghai avoided a few schedules, and Huo Xingchen could simply ask for leave and go home.
Gu Qingyin decorated the living room as soon as she got up early, put up a "Happy Birthday" banner, put up photos of several people, hung balloons and placed flowers.
These are okay, although they are a bit earthy, they are not unacceptable.
The most exaggerated thing is that she also customized a human-shaped stand of the three brothers of the same height and placed it next to the banner.
Huo Yunjing:......
He felt that he should say something, but his mind went blank and he could only silently applaud.
When everything was done, Gu Qingyin suddenly realized, "I forgot to ask them if they wanted to invite friends over." She pursed her lips, a little worried, "Wouldn't it be too stingy to just hold a birthday party at home? They used to What to do? ”
Huo Yunjing walked up to her, took her hand, and said softly: "When I was a child, I would hold it at home. When I grow up, we will hold it separately. We will hold a banquet and invite a group of people over. But that kind of birthday party is only for From what others can see, the people who come here have different thoughts, and few of them really celebrate their sons’ birthdays, and they really celebrate their birthdays with their families.”
Gu Qingyin was convinced and continued to be busy happily.
In the afternoon, Huo Xingchen was the first to come back. When he walked in and saw the greatly changed living room, his pupils couldn't help but tremble.
This... they are celebrating their twenty-second birthday, not their twelve! This is too exaggerated!
Gu Qingyin had been observing her son's expression and felt a little uneasy when she saw this, "Don't you like it?"
Huo Xingchen shook his head subconsciously, "I like it, but I'm a little shocked."
Gu Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "As long as you like it." She waved, "Come over and eat some fruit first, Xingye and Xinghai are on their way."
Huo Xinghai arrived home first. He paused for a moment after entering and smiled gently, "Thank you for your hard work, Mom. The decoration... is very unique."
Gu Qingyin was very helpful.
Huo Xingye was the last one to arrive home. He was in a daze for a moment when he entered the door. But the boss was worthy of being the boss. He quickly adjusted his facial expression and said in a sincere tone: "I haven't seen such an atmospheric birthday party in many years."
Gu Qingyin looked proud, "I arranged it all myself!"
Huo Xingye didn't know what else to say, so he changed the subject very cleverly, "Mom, I brought a gift for you."
Gu Qingyin was pleasantly surprised, "Mom should have prepared a gift for you."
Huo Xingye handed over the bag in his hand and said with a smile: "It's your child's birthday, it's a difficult day for mother, so it's appropriate to buy you a gift."
The three brothers had obviously discussed it long ago, and Huo Xinghai and Huo Xingye each took out their gifts and handed them to Gu Qingyin.
Gu Qingyin was very moved and completely surrounded by happiness.
Huo Yunjing panicked for a moment when he saw this, and then began to feel lucky. Fortunately, he had worked overtime every night during this period, and finally saved some merit and gold, which he would give to his wife later.
The family sat down separately, and Gu Qingyin also gave away the birthday gifts she had prepared. The gifts this time were not expensive, but they were very practical.
Huo Yunjing had no way to give gifts to the three brothers, so he could only send verbal blessings.
The three brothers were very happy to receive the gifts and blessings.
Her interest was high, and Gu Qingyin suddenly said: "I have also prepared a gift for you." She was looking forward to it, "Just wait, I will push it out!"
Gu Qingyin turned around and went to the kitchen. Huo Yunjing whispered, "Your mother has been working hard for more than a month to prepare this gift. Please be more surprised later." The three brothers looked at each other, their eyelids twitching wildly. Mom can't cook. Already?
With an uneasy mood, the three of them looked in the direction of the kitchen without any trace, and made preparations in their hearts. No matter what they took out, they must show surprise and eat it happily.
But when Gu Qingyin pushed the cake out, the three of them were stunned.
They imagined many dishes, but they never thought it would be cake.
Huo Xingchen's eyes widened in disbelief, "Mom! Did you do this?"
Gu Qingyin felt a little embarrassed for no reason, "Yeah, I've been learning for a month and the taste should be okay. You can try it later."
"Ignoring the taste, the shape is very good." Huo Xinghai praised it sincerely. He had eaten food cooked by Gu Qingyin himself. In comparison, this cake was really great.
Huo Xingye also said: "Let's make a wish first, I can't wait to try it."
All the lights in the room were turned off, only the decorative light strips in the dining room were still on.
Gu Qingyin made a three-layer cake. She took three candles and inserted them on the top. Huo Yunjing lit the candles with a slight movement of his fingers.
The three brothers stood in front of the cake with their hands clasped together, closed their eyes and made a wish. After a few seconds, the three brothers opened their eyes back and forth, smiled at each other, and blew out the candles.

Gu Qingyin celebrated her children's birthday for the first time. Seeing this scene, her eyes turned red involuntarily. She took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Happy birthday, babies!"
This cry of "baby" made the faces of the three people heat up.
"Mom, we are already so old, why do you still call us baby..." Huo Xingchen looked awkward.
Gu Qingyin's eyes widened, "You are my son no matter how old you are, and you are my treasure even if you are seven or eighty years old!"
Huo Xingye coughed lightly when he saw this, "Mom is right."
Huo Xinghai nodded in agreement, "Brother is right."
Huo Xingchen looked at his two brothers in disbelief. Did they just sell him out like this? Are they brothers?
Huo Xingye laughed and said, "Let's cut the cake."
The three brothers cut the cake together. You cut it and I cut it, but only the top layer was cut, and each piece was very thin.
Gu Qingyin snorted slightly when she saw this, obviously dissatisfied.
The three brothers acted as if they couldn't hear anything. Each of them took a plate with a spoon in his hand. They took a big spoonful of it in silence for three seconds and put it into their mouths as if they were dead.
After tasting it carefully, the three brothers looked at each other in surprise. It was not unpalatable, and could even be called delicious.
Huo Xinghai was the most thoughtful person. He looked at Gu Qingyin and said, "Mom must have done this many times, right?"
Gu Qingyin felt embarrassed again, "Okay, okay, how does it taste?"
Huo Xinghai smiled with his eyes bent, "It's delicious." After finishing the cake on the plate, he cut another large piece, completely forgetting the idea of maintaining weight.
Huo Xingye also nodded and said: "It's not particularly sweet, it just suits my taste. Thank you, Mom."
Huo Xingchen nodded repeatedly, his mouth was too full and he couldn't speak at all.
Gu Qingyin was very satisfied and it greatly enhanced her confidence, "If you like it, I will do it for you more often in the future! I can also learn other things!"
The three brothers paused, and suddenly felt that the delicious cake was a bit hard to swallow.
