Chapter 187 I Want to Celebrate Your Birthday

After listening to Xiaotian's suggestion, Yao Shuli thought for a moment and then sighed.

He pulled Xiaotian down to sit on the curb.

“We wanted to celebrate our eldest sister’s birthday before, but she always said that a bowl of noodles would be enough.”

My older sister always says that birthdays are nothing special, they happen every year, and it's not a big deal.

"I've saved all this money to buy my older sister a nice hair clip like Xiaoman's. I'll save the rest and try to sell something during winter break to earn more money so I can buy her one of those wool coats that you only see in department stores. She'll definitely look good in it." Yao Shuli used a twig to dig at the muddy ground beside the curb.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian felt sorry for her older sister and also a little sorry for Yao Shuli.

"Brother Shuli, I think we should celebrate birthdays properly. Although my older sister says that birthdays come every year, there is only one 20th birthday."

No, it should be that there's only one birthday for each person.

"Once this is over, there won't be another twentieth birthday," Xiao Tiantian said earnestly.

Looking at Xiaotian's serious eyes, Yao Shuli thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll take your idea and give my older sister a proper birthday celebration."

Tian Tian, ​​you have so many ideas, and you grew up in Shanghai. How do people in Shanghai celebrate their family members' birthdays? Tell me about it.

I also want to give my older sister an unforgettable birthday.

Xiao Tian immediately straightened his back; he was definitely qualified to speak on this.

"First and foremost, you have to give gifts! You have to give gifts that make people happy and touch their hearts."

Look, when I went back to Shanghai to celebrate my grandfather's birthday, I gave him a pair of cloth shoes. Isn't that exactly what he wanted?

Therefore, we must give her a gift that will truly make her happy.

As for your suggestion to buy your older sister a hair clip first, and then continue to earn money to buy her clothes for the Chinese New Year... let's forget about that!

Think about it, my older brother and his friends brought so many pretty hair clips and clothes. If my older sister liked them, she would have kept one or two already.

But my older sister couldn't be bothered to even glance at them, so she didn't like those things.

"Of course, if you give it to me... that's your kind gesture, and I'll still take a second look at it," Xiao Tiantian added.

Yao Shuli thought about it and agreed. Her older sister always wore the same two outfits, and even when they went to the department store, she didn't like browsing the clothing counters.

Every time my older sister goes to the clothing counter, she buys clothes for them.

"What should we give to our eldest sister?" Yao Shuli really had to rack her brains.

Little Tiantian was also a little worried. What should Brother Shuli give his older sister to make her feel good?

"Brother Shuli, what does Big Sister most want to see from you?" Xiao Tiantian suddenly asked.

"Of course, we should study hard and make progress every day!"

But it's too late for me now! I'll definitely study hard from now on and make sure I get excellent grades next year to make everyone happy." Yao Shuli said irritably, resting her chin on her hands.

Xiao Tiantian's eyes lit up.

"Brother Shuli, I know what you should send."

Your older sister wants to see you study hard the most. Even though you're not doing well in school right now, you'll try your best, right?

"So, all you need to do is write a guarantee to your older sister, promising to study hard from now on and never let her down," Xiao Tiantian said earnestly.

Yao Shuli...

"A guarantee letter as a birthday present!" Yao Shuli was a little surprised.

"That's right! My older sister always says that Brother Shuli is smart and quick-witted, but he just doesn't use his intelligence in the right way."

This is a matter of attitude towards learning. If you correct your attitude towards learning, it will definitely make your older sister a little happier!

"What do you think!" Little Tiantian looked at Yao Shuli expectantly.

Yao Shuli thought about it and decided it wasn't impossible. Not only did she have to write the guarantee, but she also had to put her heart into it. After all, she hadn't studied hard enough before!

We're completely at a loss now, we need to think of a good solution!

I hope that next year when my eldest sister celebrates her birthday, I won't have to give her a written guarantee, and I can just show her my top report card like my second sister does...

Forget it, setting it at number one is too hard on me. I'll focus on getting my grades in the middle of the class first.

...

The two of them quickly wandered around outside and figured out what they needed to do that day.

The two went to Zhong Xiaochun's restaurant first.

"Hello, Third Sister-in-law! Hello, Grandpa and Grandma!" Little Tiantian greeted everyone with a sweet smile as soon as she entered the door.

"You're from a different generation!" Yao Shuli quickly reminded him.

Little Tiantian was taken aback for a moment, then quickly said, "Oh, hello uncle and aunt!"

These calls made Zhong Xiaochun and his parents beam with joy.

Oh my, this little sweetie is here again, she's so adorable!

"Tian Tian, ​​what brings you here at this hour? Where's your older sister? Why didn't she come with you?" Zhong Xiaochun's parents asked as they put candy into Tian Tian and Yao Shuli's pockets.

"Hehe, Big Sister has something to do, so we've come to order food from Uncle and Auntie!" Little Tiantian said, pulling Yao Shuli out of her pocket.

"Would you like to order? What would you like to order?" Zhong Xiaochun and his parents asked immediately.

Yao Shuli and Xiao Tiantian then told them about Yao Shula's birthday in a couple of days. They also mentioned that their eldest sister shouldn't cook on her birthday, but they wanted her to eat something nice, so they were thinking of ordering some dishes to take home.

Zhong Xiaochun and his parents all nodded immediately.

What adorable children! They even know to celebrate their older sister's birthday.

Zhong Xiaochun immediately agreed.

She wrote the menu while giving instructions to the two of them.

"You should eat the dishes you ordered tonight. I'll tell Grandma when I get home."

We'll have lunch at the old house on Shura's birthday.

Let's all celebrate your eldest sister's birthday together and have a lively meal together.

Tonight, you siblings can celebrate with her alone one more time.

"If it's just the few of you going through this for her... there aren't enough people!" Zhong Xiaochun said.

Upon hearing this, Yao Shuli and Xiao Tiantian both nodded immediately.

Yes, the more people who celebrate my eldest sister's birthday, the better. This shows that more people care about her, like her, and remember her!

"Thank you, Third Sister-in-law!" Yao Shuli and Xiao Tiantian immediately agreed happily.

After returning home, Yao Shuli and Xiaotian pulled Yao Shuxin aside and whispered for a while.

...

After they finished whispering, the three of them stood in front of Yao Shula.

Yao Shula was in the kitchen thinking about whether she should buy some meat and make dumplings while the chives were still fresh...

"Big sister, we want to celebrate your birthday the day after tomorrow!" the three said in unison.

Yao Shula was stunned for a long time.

Birthday? The day after tomorrow? Oh, the day after tomorrow is the original owner's birthday...

It's also my birthday! August 20th!

"You're going to celebrate your eldest sister's birthday? How do you plan to do it?" Yao Shula immediately laughed.
