Liu Xiaoli held on to the handrail and went downstairs, with Liu Yifei on her right supporting her, and Chu Xuan walking in front.
She couldn't see the road and was wearing high heels, so she had to go downstairs like this to make Liu Xiaoli feel safer.
Suddenly, Liu Xiaoli smelled a smell in the air: "I also made cuttlefish stewed tripe strips. I added too much pepper. Who made the dish today?"
Chu Xuan turned his head and looked at each other with Liu Yifei. Both of them were convinced, but my mother had a good nose. She was about ten meters away from the kitchen, so she could smell the specific dish with the faint fragrance.
Not only that, but you can also comment, "There's too much pepper." Does this mother have any special powers?
"Brother Dong made it." Chu Xuan did not reveal the existence of his aunt and aunt, and gave Dong Zhihua all the cooking credit, so as not to diminish his mother's surprise after discovering the existence of his family.
Who would have known that Liu Xiaoli's lips curled into a smile next, and she said something that surprised Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei: "Brother Dong, you are from the capital, and the cooking is not so heavy, so your aunt won't cook it."
Right? She is the only one who likes to put more condiments and ingredients into the dishes to give them a strong taste."
Chu Xuan turned his head and looked at Liu Yifei again. Mom's guess really shocked them. Can you guess this?
The couple couldn't help laughing silently and kept silent. This old woman was too shrewd and they didn't dare to answer, lest they say something wrong and expose it more.
"You two are talking, why are you silent? Did I guess it right? Don't you dare to admit it? Or is the arrival of grandma and the others a surprise for me?" Liu Xiaoli said with great interest, following the clues to get to the bottom of it.
"Oh, mom, don't ask, we'll find out later." Liu Yifei shook her mother's arm slightly, deliberately acting coquettishly in an attempt to suppress her mother's high IQ.
Liu Xiaoli refused to obey. She finally got some clues, and it seemed that she guessed it correctly. Remembering that these two little guys had been covering her up from the beginning to the end, she became very playful and prepared to fight again.
Get rid of these two children.
Haven't you always regarded me as the female devil? Now let me show you the wisdom of the female devil.
She teased: "Xiao Xuan, you asked me some time ago what I like to eat. Is it the surprise you prepared for me today? You lied to me to go to Century Culture this morning. In fact, I should go home to learn cooking from your aunt, right?
?”
Chu Xuan walked down the last step, turned around and looked at Liu Yifei. The couple looked at each other, completely convinced.
This old lady must be so amazing. She can guess this by following the clues. No one else can.
It can only be said that the one who knows her children best is the mother. Their little thoughts were completely broken by the taste of a dish. It turns out that the only person who knows her children is the mother.
Walking down the stairs and getting closer to the restaurant, the aroma of the stewed cuttlefish belly strips is indeed very strong, and the aroma of other dishes mixed with it is also highlighted with the closer distance.
"There really is a Buddha jumping over the wall..."
"Mom, stop guessing, stop guessing, let's go out first."
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were a little frightened by my mother's scent and intelligence. Seeing how excited my mother was, the couple hurriedly took her outside the house.
Liu Xiaoli's face looked like she was having fun, and she and the two children played a game of turning against each other, which was very interesting at this moment.
There is air conditioning in the house, and when I step outside, a wave of heat hits me, as if there are two worlds inside and outside the house.
"It's such a hot day. You don't want to eat on the lawn. Let's ask the family to come inside to eat later."
"I know, I don't need you to worry about it."
Liu Yifei said something, and Chu Xuan looked dumbfounded.
Mom is addicted to being a guest. They are obviously preparing a surprise. Good guy, Mom took the initiative to arrange it. The most important thing is that Mom doesn’t know anything. It’s all based on guessing. This is really funny.
of.
The noise coming from here attracted the attention of three waves of people in the audience.
At night when the lights were not turned on, the teachers in the garden, the friends in the big villa, and the families on the lawn, each holding a mobile phone and shining a weak light, slowly walked over silently, each with their own thoughts.
Interesting smile, waiting to watch the show.
"We're walking onto the lawn." Liu Xiaoli was led away, and she felt the texture of the ground under her feet change. She knew in her heart that she was being led onto the lawn by two children: "The surprise is either on the lawn, or in the garden, or in the garden.
You two's imagination is probably just to arrange some lights, balloons, etc."
"Pfft", a laugh came from the darkness, probably because Liu Xiaoli was amused when she complained about Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei.
"Who? Su Chang? I knew it was you as soon as I heard the voice." Liu Xiaoli heard the voice and looked around. Although she couldn't see anything, she guessed it was Su Chang's laughter.
In the darkness five or six meters away to the left, Jiang Xin pinched Su Chang's waist, blaming her for revealing her secrets.
Su Chang raised his hand to cover his mouth to prevent himself from making any sound.
Wang Jinhua, Dong Zhihua, Li Zhengtong, Ren Quan and others watched with great interest. This way of giving surprises was very unique. In addition, they did not yet know what the surprise would look like, so they all had some expectations.
In the darkness seven or eight meters ahead, Han Sanping, Chen Kaige and others were walking from the garden and stopped, looking cheerful, waiting to witness the surprise moment.
In the darkness three or four meters away on the right, the grandmother, aunt and other family members were smiling. First, they were waiting for the surprise, and second, they wanted to see Liu Xiaoli's reaction.
"Mom, just wait here." Liu Yifei asked her mother to stop and looked at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan understood, turned his head in the direction of the big villa, and then coughed twice loudly.
Wen Muye controlled a laptop in the large villa. The computer and the LED screen were connected through the Internet to enable remote operation. When he heard Chu Xuan's cough command, a warm yellow-orange light suddenly appeared on the lawn under his operation.
On the lawn, Liu Yifei took off her mother's blindfold.
Warm light came from all directions, leaving Liu Xiaoli stunned.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! She looked curiously and found that she was surrounded by a circle of light that was ten meters in diameter.
Looking around, I realized that the word "encircled" was inappropriate.
To be precise, the entire world seemed to be illuminated by warm light.
She could see clearly that the light source came from an LED screen, and there were many pieces and five layers.
I don’t know how the five-layer LED screen was built up, forming what looks like an inverted cone.
It was like a stadium that had been shrunk many times. She was on the playground. No matter where she looked, all she could see were the auditoriums. These auditoriums were the LED screens in front of her. Only the large void above her head could be seen.
The stars in the sky and the rest of the space are covered by the warm light emitted by LEDs.
"OK?"
She didn't know why, what kind of surprise was this?
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei laughed but did not answer. The reason why it was warm light was because using white light might damage the eyes.
And there is also a little thought here. The more confusing it is for my mother, the better the effect will be when she sees the surprise in a flash.
The next moment, the warm light began to change and slowly became brighter, but the background color was still warm, mainly to protect the eyes.
As the lights get brighter, the figures of teachers, friends, and family members also appear all around.
Liu Xiaoli smiled and shook her head when she saw this. She thought that only a few family members from her mother's side were here, but she didn't expect that her younger sister Zhou Wenqiong's family also came all the way from Los Angeles. She thought that was it, but she just heard Su Chang laugh again.
I guessed that maybe some friends of the two children were also there.
But looking at it now, I never expected that Li Congcheng, Hu Jun, Han Sanping, Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong and others were all present.
It’s just a birthday, so what’s the point?
Liu Xiaoli was speechless for this arrangement between the couple, but the fullness of it made her feel very warm.
"you……"
Just when Liu Xiaoli wanted to say hello to the visitors, the LED screen she had ignored for the moment changed dramatically, leaving her stunned on the spot.
I saw that huge photos, about one meter wide and one meter five high, were displayed one by one on an unknown number of LED screens, and they were clicked smoothly.
The first photo is of a baby-like child with a mark on the screen: 1 year old.
Liu Xiaoli recalled in shock that she was right, but this photo should have been in black and white. How come it was changed to color?
She looked at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei and gave them a meaningful smile. It must be these two guys' fault.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei smiled and said nothing, waiting for their mother to finish reading the surprise.
At the moment of surprise, Liu Xiaoli did not say anything for the time being and continued to look at the next LED screen.
After the first photo stayed for 3 seconds, the second photo slowly appeared. It was still her, and she was 2 years old.
Liu Xiaoli's face softened, and she finally saw the pattern. She probably started filling up these "stadium auditorium"-like stepped screens starting when she was 1 year old.
As she expected, 1-year-old, 2-year-old, 3-year-old... photos from the past that were not remembered because of her young age appeared one by one.
The teachers watched, the friends watched, and the family members smiled, all following today's protagonist Liu Xiaoli to savor it carefully.
Due to the lack of memory due to her young age, and because her childhood was too long ago, these childish photos in front of her are just to remember her, and they do not stir up her mind.
It wasn't until she was more than 10 years old that the scene of her first dance as a girl appeared, which made her heart tremble and her eyes involuntarily became misty.
16 years old, 17 years old, 18 years old... The stage she presented in each picture was getting bigger and bigger, which represented her growth and also told the story of her passionate youth. She couldn't help but cover her nose with her hands.
The glitter on the lips and corners of the eyes also unconsciously fell on the cheeks.
Then, at the age of 22, 23, 24... she graduated from college in the picture and came to Wuhan with the song and dance troupe to make a name for herself. Her graceful figure and ancient charm were fixed in the hearts of the people of Wuhan and gradually spread to the whole country. Northern Youth Network updated
Therefore, she was praised for her "excellent dancing skills".
Then, she was 27 years old, 28 years old, 29 years old... In the picture, she joined the Wuhan Theater and settled here. Her reputation greatly increased as she danced in her youth. During this period, she also met Ankang, and gave birth to Sissi at the age of 29.
.
Looking at the photo of herself holding the baby Sissi on the hospital bed after giving birth in the hospital, Liu Xiaoli's tearful and tender face showed a little embarrassment, and she muttered: "Why did you get this photo? It's so ugly."
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei couldn't help laughing, one held their mother's shoulders, the other held her mother's hand, and continued to watch without saying a word.
33 years old, 34 years old, 35 years old... She looks more mature in the picture, and she is more energetic in dance. Her solid foundation and full stage experience made her famous at the age of 35, and she gained fame in the same year as teacher Yang Liping
The "Five One Project Award" and the "Wenhua Performance Award" are two top national-level dance awards.
Going one step further, it is true that the national first-class dancers, Liu Xiaolin in the north and Yang Liping in the south, may not be a joke.
However, the situation is unpredictable and life is unpredictable.
36 years old, 37 years old, 38 years old... The photos of her in the picture are no longer dancing photos, but simple photos, which seem to represent that she has faded out of the dance circle since she was 36 years old, and again at the age of 38
Taking 10-year-old Sissi away to another country, she has completely given up on a dream that many people don't know why. It is also a "self-destructive future" just before the peak of her career that makes the industry sigh with regret.
There is only one sentence left in People's Daily: "She is a soul dancer, she is an artist who uses her life to interpret dance." This proves the traces of her existence and puts a final mark on her dream, which makes her peers regretful and allows the media to recall her.
But she ended it without any regrets.
40 years old, 41 years old, 42 years old... Her temperament is still there in the picture, and there is spirit in her eyes, but the "God" in it no longer has the brilliance of the artist in the past, but an unspeakable sustenance and strong feeling for Sissi.
She has a mother's love that is fearless and has a determination that "if anyone hurts my daughter, I will risk my life with him."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! 45 years old, 46 years old, 47 years old... Her style in the photos has changed again. Maybe she has a good son-in-law, maybe her daughter has a strong husband
Harbor, compared to the fearless eyes and vigilant heart of previous years, has softened, the calm, warm, and soft brilliance seems to reveal the change in her mood that she has returned to an ordinary mother.
48 years old, 49 years old... Perhaps this change of state of mind gradually deepened, and her relaxed and comfortable posture made her look younger and more easy-going. The maternal brilliance in her eyes still existed, but it was more of a kind of
Let go of your burdens and look forward to the future full of longing and longing.
In just two or three minutes, 49 photos interpret the past, depict the past, and witness a wonderful life.
Running towards your dreams at the age of ten is a persistence without regrets.
Dancing youth in your twenties is the light and glory.
Then she got married and had a son. After all, it was fate. Although this fate was not complete, it was still her own choice.
Later, at the most glorious moment of her life, her dream and her daughter opened a window and a door for her. She walked into her daughter's door, and the so-called dream closed the window.
Some people have said that she is stubborn, others have said that she shouldn't be like this...
However, if giving up your dreams is heading towards the darkness that annihilates everyone, then training your daughter to shine is not heading towards the light of happiness in life?
Besides, she also found a good son-in-law along the way, allowing her to have a relatively perfect family of three, happy and happy. Isn't this an enviable life direction?
She has never regretted anything in her life.
And at the age of 50... what is shown on the last LED screen is herself, her current self, at this moment.
Obviously, there is a camera broadcasting live, otherwise she would not be in the picture at this moment.
Liu Xiaoli covered her face with her hands and blew her nose. Tears had already passed over the back of her hands, but the expression on her face was full of warmth and emotion.
She didn't know where the couple found these photos. Not to mention the early photos when she was too young, each of the later photos was a memory point for her and the most exciting moment in her corresponding age.
.
Liu Xiaoli put down her hands, turned around and smiled gently at the two children, then raised her hands to hold the couple in her arms, rubbed the hair on the back of her daughter's head, and patted her son-in-law on the back: "Thank you for preparing for me.
I am very happy about this surprise. The last photo is of us at this moment, which means that we will get better and better in the future, right?"
"Yes." Xu said that mother and daughter had a heart-to-heart, and Liu Yifei couldn't help but choke up.
"That's right." Chu Xuan said, helping his mother tidy up the crown on her head: "Mom, happy birthday."
On one side, Wang Jinhua took the lead, clapped her hands and shouted to everyone: "Come on, 1, 2, 3..."
As she counted down to three, the teachers, friends and family members all had smiling faces. They had arranged in advance and they all cooperated and said in unison: "Happy birthday to Ms. Liu Xiaoli!!"
