As the sun sets in the west, the brilliant yellow rays illuminate the gardens and villas, shining brightly and warmly.
In the small villa, my grandma, uncle and other family members were eating fruits and chatting, which seemed very comfortable under the sky.
But in this pleasant and comfortable atmosphere, a hurried shout came, and the beautiful atmosphere was broken: "Quick, quick! Get out! Get out!"
Under the stunned gazes of the family members, Chu Xuan walked over quickly and said with an awkward but polite smile: "Mom is already here. Sister Hua can't hold her back any longer. It's not dark yet, so we can't let mom see what's going on in the house."
According to the arrangement, Sissi is going to put a blindfold on her mother’s eyes before bringing her in. You’d better not be exposed and sit outside or in the big villa first.”
The family members were dumbfounded at first, and then they couldn't help but laugh. The arrangements for this temporary change were really hasty, but extremely interesting.
"Listen to Xiaoxuan, let's go outside. Xiaoli doesn't know we are there yet. We can't be exposed. Please speak softly." Grandma spoke, very cooperative. After all, she was doing it for her 50-year-old daughter.
It was a birthday surprise, and she also had the fun of being a mother.
The uncle, aunt, uncle and cousin didn't say anything. They each embraced the grandmother and walked out with a sense of fun, not to disturb the couple's temporary adjustment plan to deal with the unexpected event.
Chu Xuan followed his family to the lawn, and then ran past them to the garden corridor, where Han Sanping, Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong, Tang Jili, Liu Yi, Ning Hao, Huang Lei and other seniors were walking and chatting.
"Teachers, please just take a walk here and speak as quietly as possible. My mother has already arrived. Sissi will take her upstairs to put on makeup later. Please don't let her know there is someone at home. Please cooperate."
Seeing Chu Xuan rushing to say such a thing, these teachers were dumbfounded.
"You couple are not well prepared," Zhang Jizhong joked.
"You are busy with your business, we will just walk here without disturbing you." Chen Kaige said with an interesting tone.
Seeing Chu Xuan turn around and run away to the big villa, presumably to inform the people in the big villa to get ready.
Han Sanping praised his back: "Filial piety comes first. It's great that these two people can come up with such a big surprise for their mother."
Tang Jili nodded slightly: "The two of them are really good. You can't pick out two people like this in the circle."
The other teachers nodded and expressed their appreciation for Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
At this time, Chu Xuan broke into the living room of the big villa from the back door facing the lawn. Su Chang, Jiang Xin, Huang Xuan, Zhao Liying, Wen Muye and other friends of the same age, as well as eldest brothers and sisters such as Li Hedun, Li Zhitong, Ren Quan, Hu Jun, Liu Jialin, etc.
We are all here.
"Speak softly later, you are already at the door." Chu Xuan ordered.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't come back until after dark?" Li Chong asked.
"Sister Hua can't hold on any longer. It's a half-hour journey. Sister Hua has been detouring for an hour and a half and it's really impossible. My mother is not stupid either." Chu Xuan sighed.
"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed and walked around for an hour and a half. Sister Hua, the eldest sister, is quite awesome. They were even more amused when they heard Chu Xuan say, "My mother is not stupid either."
Liu Yifei found a pair of black eye masks upstairs and walked down quickly: "Friends, brothers and sisters, please keep your voice down later. I'm going to take my mother to the other side of the bedroom to put on makeup and hair to delay time."
, we can’t let her know that there are still people at home.”
"Where are there so many decorations on the lawn?" Liu Jialin reminded.
"I have closed the curtains in my mother's bedroom to prevent her from seeing it," Liu Yifei said.
After hearing what she said, Hu Jun cracked the melon seeds and said, "You go ahead, we won't make any noise and we promise to cooperate well."
"Have grandma and third brother told them?" Liu Yifei went downstairs and asked Chu Xuan.
"I said it, let's go." Chu Xuan nodded, and he and Liu Yifei quickly walked to the gate.
Outside the gate, a red car was parked on the roadside.
Wang Jinhua sat in the driver's seat and Liu Xiaoli sat in the passenger seat.
Seeing Wang Jinhua suppressing her laughter, Liu Xiaoli felt helpless and speechless.
After leaving the company, we had a good chat in the car and didn't notice anything unusual.
However, I saw that Wang Jinhua had been driving for so long. It was originally only a half-hour journey, and even if there was a traffic jam, the delay would only be ten minutes at most. But after more than an hour, I noticed something was wrong by observing the nearby situation.
The company is to the east of the East Third Ring Road, and the home is to the south of the East Third Ring Road. There is no need to pass through Chang'an Street, but Wang Jinhua not only drove the car past Chang'an Street, but also drove to the vicinity of the West Third Ring Road.
"What are you making a fuss about?"
"Well...if I said I was lost, would you believe it?"
be lost?
You, an old Beijinger, will still get lost?
I believe you as a ghost!
Liu Xiaoli began to become suspicious. In the past, Wang Jinhua would not keep her in the company when she came back from far away, but would care about her and let her go home to rest. But looking back on the situation this afternoon, Wang Jinhua seemed to have deliberately dragged her to talk.
Some of them are not homely, and this is very wrong.
She picked up her phone and looked at the time. She only noticed the time today, not the date.
When she found out that today was June 18th, she suddenly woke up and had a guess in her mind.
When Wang Jinhua drove the car to the door of her home, she wanted to get out of the car, but Wang Jinhua controlled the button to lock the car doors. This situation prevented her from getting out of the car, which deepened her confidence.
"You're fooling me together, right?"
Hearing Liu Xiaoli's words, Wang Jinhua smiled and said nothing.
"Let me just say, with Xiaoxuan and Qianxi's temperaments, why would they go all the way back to do business as soon as possible? Even now, they don't even give me a single call. This is not their style. They are actually at home.
Well, what are you doing, preparing a birthday surprise for me?"
Seeing Liu Xiaoli's revelation, Wang Jinhua didn't take it seriously. It was normal for Liu Xiaoli to guess it. After all, the behavior of all parties today was indeed a bit unreasonable.
Wang Jinhua didn't hide it either: "It's my 50th birthday. The two children have worked hard to prepare a surprise for me, you. You have to be happy."
Liu Xiaoli showed a smile. These two guys were really preparing a surprise for her, and they also joined forces with Wang Jinhua to deceive her. She felt relieved in her heart, but she shook her head and said: "It's not a big birthday, just forget it if you don't remember it."
I remember just living it casually, and it’s so troublesome.”
Wang Jinhua sensed Liu Xiaoli's stubbornness and was obviously happy in her heart, but for the sake of saving face, she showed an indifferent attitude and did not expose it. She only said: "The two children have intentions. You, the mother, have to cooperate."
"Cooperate, cooperate, cooperate." Liu Xiaoli said repeatedly, and then complained: "How to cooperate? What about the surprise? Just trap me in the car?"
Wang Jinhua smiled happily, and when she saw Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei opening the door and walking out, she raised her head and said, "Here comes the surprise."
The sound of "click" is the sound of the car door lock being unlocked.
Liu Xiaoli opened the door and got out of the car. Before she could say anything, her daughter smiled and forced her to put on a blindfold.
"What are you doing?"
"Mom, put on the blindfold first."
"Why are you wearing a blindfold?"
"Oh, put it on."
Liu Xiaoli couldn't resist her daughter's teasing, and she ended up like an illegal business in a Hong Kong movie. She was driven in a large circle for no apparent reason in an attempt to get away from the police. After going around and around, she got out of the car and was put on a blindfold again.
In case she saw the truth, she was also drunk.
"What on earth are you doing?"
"You'll find out later."
Liu Xiaoli was supported by Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei from left to right. After entering the gate, she walked towards the small villa.
Wang Jinhua drove back to her home to park her car, and then came back after parking her car.
The families on the lawn, the teachers in the garden, and the friends in the big villa all noticed the movement at the door, and looked at it with smiles on their faces, waiting for the couple to finish their work.
, also waiting for the surprise to come after dark.
"There's no need to do this at home. Since it's a surprise, why don't you let me see it? It's really inconvenient to walk with a blindfold on." Liu Xiaoli was supported and groped upstairs.
Mom knew they were planning a surprise at home and understood that today was her birthday. They also learned something from Sister Hua’s text message, so they were not surprised.
"It's very necessary!" Liu Yifei helped her mother climb the steps step by step.
"If the surprise doesn't satisfy me, I'm going to scold you." Liu Xiaoli threatened, not only to vent her inner discomfort caused by being deceived, but also to look forward to the unknown surprise her two children had prepared for her.
"Then it's over." Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other and smiled. He deliberately said this in a discouraged manner, intending to lower his mother's expectations so that the surprise would become even more surprising.
However, Liu Xiaoli, who knew her son-in-law very well, heard her son-in-law say this, which inspired her to be more curious and full of expectations for surprises.
Liu Xiaoli staggered to the bedroom on the second floor. Liu Yifei opened the bedroom and helped her mother in, then took off her blindfold.
"Where's the surprise?" Liu Xiaoli looked around and found nothing.
"Don't worry, mom, come quickly, I'll help you wash your hair first." Liu Yifei threw the eye mask on the bed.
"Wash your hair?" Liu Xiaoli was confused. Seeing that the bedroom curtains were tightly closed, she couldn't help but step to the window to open the curtains and take a look.
As soon as she took a step, Liu Yifei pulled her back: "Mom, wash your hair first!"
Liu Xiaoli turned her head and looked at her daughter: "Is there a surprise outside?"
Liu Yifei did not answer, but pursed her lips and smiled.
Liu Xiaoli realized this and showed off her soft and beautiful face, but was forced into the bathroom by her daughter.
"You go out first, and I forgot something." Liu Yifei pointed to her head.
Chu Xuan understood. He forgot to take the tiara he prepared for his mother. Moreover, her mother had to be arranged by Liu Yifei to change her clothes later. It was not convenient for him to stay here any longer, so he made an "OK" gesture to Liu Yifei.
Finally, he retreated.
Liu Yifei's service was very attentive and she specially arranged a chair in advance so that her mother could sit on the chair and enjoy shampooing as comfortably as possible.
"Mom, sit down." She took off the shower head and asked her mother to sit down.
"Hey." Liu Xiaoli sighed and sat down, saying, "I asked Sister Hua to hold me back again, with a blindfold on me, and I had to wash my hair. Why are you going to all this trouble?"
"Oh." Liu Yifei said coquettishly: "Your daughter and son-in-law have prepared a birthday surprise for you, why are you not happy at all!"
"Okay, okay." Liu Xiaoli said repeatedly: "I'm happy, you can wash it. You have never washed my hair before."
"Yes, you have been washing and tying my hair since I was little. This time it's my turn to dress up for you." Liu Yifei said cheerfully, untying the rubber band on her mother's hair and smoothing it for her.
Are you dressing up for me?...Liu Xiaoli laughed when she heard this. Although she didn't know what the surprise her daughter and son-in-law had prepared, she felt that this surprise was enough at this moment.
After smoothing her hair, Liu Yifei picked up the shampoo and rubbed her mother's hair.
It was only close to seven o'clock, and it was estimated that it would take half an hour until dark. In order to delay the time, she rubbed her mother as much as possible.
However, Liu Xiaoli didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If you rub your mother's scalp again, a layer will fall off, that's it, that's all."
"Ah? I'm sorry." Liu Yifei pursed her lips playfully. She was really embarrassed, and immediately started to pour water to wash her mother's hair.
The mother and daughter were silent for the time being, and there was only the sound of the shower water splashing to the floor, and the sound of Liu Yifei humming a pleasant tune.
Liu Xiaoli felt the feeling of having her daughter's hair washed. It was far less professional than the makeup artist's technique, and it was not as comfortable as washing her own hair. Some of it was just a little rough and casual.
It's just that compared to the original daughter's experience in washing hair, which was purely an elementary school student's. After getting married with her son-in-law, she learned the habit of putting on light makeup every day and occasionally getting a small hairstyle. The current daughter's experience in washing hair can be regarded as a promotion.
I'm a junior high school student.
But whether she is a primary school student or a junior high school student, whether she is unprofessional or professional, for her mother, it is a rare and happy thing for her daughter to think of washing her hair and dressing up for her.
She felt happy about this and enjoyed her daughter's service.
At early seven o'clock in the evening, the sky was getting dark, and there was a thin line between darkness and dusk.
Liu Yifei washed her mother's hair, took her out of the bathroom, asked her to sit in front of the dressing table, and picked up a hair dryer to dry her hair.
When she turned off the hair dryer, there was a "dong dong" knock on the door, and Liu Yifei immediately said: "Wait a minute."
Chu Xuan outside the door stopped doing anything and waited at the door.
Liu Xiaoli was sitting on a chair. Just when she thought her daughter was going to do her makeup and hair, she saw her daughter take out a black swan-like dress from the cabinet that looked very expensive at first sight.
And she was very sure that these were not her clothes.
"Dang-dang-dang-dang!" Liu Yifei took off the clothes hanger and spread out the clothes to show her mother: "Mom, how are you? Does it look good?"
Liu Xiaoli looked at it, it was black like ink dye, the border was like silk, the leader was decorated with carvings, and there were tassels around the waist. How could such a luxurious thing not be beautiful?
"Did you buy it?" she asked.
"I paid for it, and Changchang and Da Xinxin helped me buy it with my reference." Liu Yifei arched her eyebrows: "Is my taste good?"
Liu Xiaoli narrowed her eyes and nodded: "Would you like to wear it now?"
"Of course, try it quickly." Liu Yifei handed the clothes to her mother.
Liu Xiaoli didn't ask how much it cost. What her daughter bought for her was more out of consideration, and she later changed into this new set of clothes.
"There are also shoes." Like magic, Liu Yifei revealed the hidden shoe box from the bedside. When she opened the box, a pair of gorgeous black and shiny high heels that seemed to match the black skirt appeared in front of Liu Xiaoli's eyes.
"Wow, are you asking your mother to be a princess?" Liu Xiaoli said. She had dressed up like this a long time ago when she was a dancer, but she had never seen it again in the past ten years since she gave up this career.
"What princess? She's obviously the queen!" Liu Yifei praised, and then shouted at the door: "Chu Xuan, you can come in."
Chu Xuan opened the door and walked in. Liu Yifei seemed to be displaying art, waving her hands towards her mother: "Just tell me, is our mother beautiful?"
"Absolutely beautiful." Chu Xuan agreed and smiled.
When his mother was astonished, he walked up to her, picked up the finely carved silver tiara in his hand, and put it on her head.
"I'm dizzy, you two guys..." Liu Xiaoli was speechless. There were gorgeous clothes, gorgeous high heels, and now a crown-like headdress.
"Am I going to be enshrined in Mount Tai today?" she complained with joy and warmth.
Hearing this, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were happy.
"There is still one last step to do, give you a hairstyle." Liu Yifei pulled her mother to get up from the bed, and then helped her sit down on the chair.
If you wear your hair loose, you are a princess, if you have your hair in a bun, you are a queen.
Liu Yifei began to put her mother's hair into a bun to show her mother's temperament and beauty.
Liu Xiaoli let her daughter fiddle with her hair. She felt a little knocked out by the series of tricks in a short period of time. She took a short breath and said: "Actually, it's just a simple matter of setting the table and having a good time. It's enough for us to have fun. Just say something.
Happy birthday, I will also feel very happy, there is no need to go to such trouble."
Chu Xuan stood nearby, looking at his gentle mother in the mirror.
"It's Sissi's 18th coming-of-age ceremony. Although you were opposed to such luxury at first, you were also very eager and happy to see Sissi's most beautiful side. You have never forgotten my birthdays in the past few years.
, always cheers up the place and makes the situation warm and joyful.”
"You yourself are not simple in your thoughts for us. Why do you want us to be simple for you? This is preventing us from having a grateful heart. I don't agree with this."
"That's right!" After hearing Chu Xuan's words, Liu Yifei strongly supported her mother while dressing her up.
Liu Xiaoli had a gentle look on her face and slowly shook her head: "When did you think of celebrating my 50th birthday?"
"It's been a year or two." Liu Yifei said.
"A year or two?" Liu Xiaoli was surprised.
Chu Xuan smiled and nodded: "On Sissi's 20th birthday, you prepared a lot of little surprises for her. She just wanted to prepare a surprise for you with me on your 50th birthday."
"Oh my God." Liu Xiaoli didn't expect that her two children would have been thinking about this day a year or two ago. She was very happy and sighed: "I am already very happy and happy. Really, it seems that I am still here now."
In my dream, thank you for my two babies."
Liu Yifei and Chu Xuan looked at each other and saw that their mother was happy. They were both satisfied, but the main topic had not begun yet. Everything they had done so far was just a preparation, so she said: "The surprise hasn't started yet."
"That's enough, that's enough, I'm afraid of getting a heart attack." Liu Xiaoli made a joke.
She knew there was still a surprise. There must be some unexpected surprise arranged outside the tightly closed curtains that her daughter would not allow her to open.
But to be honest, from washing her hair, to new clothes and shoes, to a crown, to her daughter dressing her up, to learning that her daughter and son-in-law had planned a surprise a year or two ago, it was already a huge surprise for her.
.
She couldn't imagine that besides this huge surprise, there could be anything more surprising than this. She was looking forward to it but was afraid that she wouldn't be able to bear it.
Just because she hadn't planned her birthday for many years, she couldn't imagine what her birthday would be like.
"Okay, what do you think?" Liu Yifei finished dressing her mother and asked Chu Xuan for her opinion.
"Perfect." Chu Xuan looked at his mother's makeup and directly evaluated it as perfect.
In the past, he used to describe his mother as Lin Qingxia from Mainland China and Maggie Cheung from Mainland China, but now after undergoing makeup, he does not need to use other people to describe his mother. From image to temperament, she is no less gorgeous than those of the older generation.
's idol.
"Mom, wear a blindfold."
"Do you still need to wear a blindfold?"
Liu Xiaoli just said it and no longer resisted. She wanted to see what surprises there were outside.
Just like that, after dressing up, she was helped out of the room by two children.
