When Yuanyuan heard this, she just shook her head with Ye Shengxiao in a depressed manner. Ye Shengxiao had no choice but to ask the kitchen to make more of what Yuanyuan liked to eat, hoping to use delicious food to arouse her son's interest.

When the meal started, Ye Shengxiao sat down with Yuanyuan in his arms and brought over his favorite sweet and sour short ribs.

"Yuanyuan, look, what is this? A few days ago, you told your mother that you wanted to eat this. Look, Aunt Li has made it specially for you today! Come on, mother will give you a piece to try.

OK?"

Normally, Yuanyuan's eyes would light up with joy after seeing these things, but today it was completely different.

His thick eyelashes were lowered, and he only glanced at the plate of sweet and sour short ribs, but his face still showed no interest.

"What's wrong with Yuanyuan? Don't you want to eat this today? Mom, can you bring the boiled pork slices to Yuanyuan? If you wanted to eat it before, Mom was afraid that it would be spicy for you, so today I asked the kitchen to put less chili pepper. Mom

Can I bring it to you?"

Next, Ye Shengxiao asked about several dishes in succession, and took out the desserts she bought when she came back, but Yuanyuan had no appetite for any of them.

Ye Shengxiao was so worried that she didn't even take a few bites.

"Yuanyuan, if you don't have appetite, can you go to the toy room with me and play games?"

Yuanyuan lowered her face, "I don't want to play, it's boring."

Ye Shengxiao couldn't help but sigh, feeling that the child's thoughts were really difficult to guess.

At this moment, Yuanyuan secretly raised her eyes to glance at Ye Shengxiao, and then quickly lowered her head.

"Mom, where's dad? Why hasn't he come back today?"

Ye Shengxiao felt happy when her son finally took the initiative to speak.

"Yuanyuan misses daddy? Can mommy call daddy and ask him to come back soon?"

Yuanyuan nodded.

After Xiao Li came back, Yuanyuan threw herself into his arms and acted coquettishly. She grunted and refused to say what was wrong. Instead, she took the desk calendar off the cabinet and played with it.

Ye Shengxiao was confused by her son and didn't know what Yuanyuan meant.

Finally, after Xiao Li's patient questioning, Yuanyuan mumbled and spoke.

"Why can't you celebrate your birthday in advance... I just want to celebrate it in advance to get angry..."

"We can celebrate two! One tomorrow, we will have a small cake, and wait for another one on my birthday! In this way, I will have two cakes to eat."

After struggling for a long time, I finally said this.

Ye Shengxiao was helpless, looked at Xiao Li and agreed.

"Let's have a good time. It's just a birthday after all. Don't bother your parents anymore."

Yuanyuan's big black and white eyes lit up when she heard this, and she stuck out her tongue at Ye Shengxiao.

Ye Shengxiao was amused by Yuanyuan and felt relieved.

On the phone that day, Xiao Jinxuan kept saying that she would come to Yuanyuan's first birthday party. She had been thinking about it for the past few days and didn't know how to refuse. Now that Yuanyuan wanted to advance the date, she could use this opportunity to withdraw.

Rejected the other party.

After Xiao Li and Ye Shengxiao put Yuanyuan to sleep, they came to the hall to discuss the specific matters for their son's first birthday.

"I mean, it doesn't need to be too grand, but the first-year banquet is still indispensable. This way it also has a sense of ceremony."

Xiao Li loosened the collar of his shirt, and there was a hint of tiredness on the tip of his eyebrows.

"The banquet? That scene must be nothing to be ashamed of. There are so many branches of the Xiao family that it's hard to worry about one thing and not the other. Won't those three uncles and six mothers-in-law have their legs broken by then?"

Ye Shengxiao frowned upon hearing this.

"What you said makes sense, but Yuanyuan has been clamoring for her birthday all day long. Children are sensitive and delicate. If they are too low-key, won't Yuanyuan be unhappy? And my uncle and aunt,

They haven't seen Yuanyuan since she was born until she turned one year old. They must want to come to this birthday party."

Ye Shengxiao's aunt made Xiao Li feel nervous, remembering the express delivery incident a few days ago.

At that time, he lied to Ye Shengxiao that the express delivery was just clothes sent by his aunt, and then sent someone to buy some clothes to fool her, just to prevent her from knowing what Xiao Jinxuan really sent.

But if my aunt and her family come to this birthday party, won’t my lies be exposed?

Xiao Li felt very distressed for a while.

"Maybe there's something going on with my aunt and she can't come over?"

When he said this, Ye Shengxiao simply stood up.

"Then I'll call my aunt first to see if they are busy then."

Xiao Li's eyes paused when he heard this, and before Ye Shengxiao went upstairs to find his cell phone, he quickly and secretly let his aunt's family's phone line be occupied.

As a result, Ye Shengxiao's phone call was naturally unreachable.

She frowned and went downstairs.

"It's really strange. Not only my aunt, but also my uncle's phone can't be reached." She muttered and dialed again, but the busy tone of "beep" came from the receiver.

Ye Shengxiao had no choice but to give up.

The next day was a weekend, and she saw that Xiao Li had nothing to do at home, so she sent him and Yuanyuan to order cakes.

Xiao Li was very worried the night before. Now seeing that Ye Shengxiao was about to order cakes, he knew that she would not let her aunt and her family come again.

President Xiao Da felt relieved and was very happy. After changing his clothes, he hugged Yuanyuan.

"Yuanyuan, let's go, daddy will take you to order a big cake!"

Yuanyuan glanced at Xiao Li very suspiciously, thinking, it's obviously my birthday, why does my father look happier than me?

Xiao Li's good mood lasted all the way from home to the cake shop. Yuanyuan was held in his arms and finally couldn't help but sigh.

"Dad, you are so stupid!"

President Xiao Da had a black line after hearing this...

…

On the other side of the Xiao residence, Mr. Xiao's physical condition was not very good.

In the evening, he called Ye Shengxiao.

"Shengxiao, I'm afraid as a grandfather, I won't be able to go to Yuanyuan's birthday party!" The old man said and sighed, "This man is old and useless!"

Ye Shengxiao was startled when she heard this and quickly put down the chopsticks in her hands.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell again? Do you want us to go back and take you to the hospital now?"

Mr. Xiao coughed and shook his head.

"No, no, no, I'm sick. The private doctor has just come here and said that the illness didn't go away well. It rained a little in the past two days and the temperature dropped, so it relapsed. Everything else is fine, just let me lie down."

Rest in bed and don't let her move back and forth. Shengxiao, don't worry too much. I just regret that I can't spend her birthday with Yuanyuan!"

When Ye Shengxiao heard this, she felt relieved and moved at the same time.
