After Li's mother left, Li Mingxi stayed with her family to talk.
After talking for a while, she went upstairs to change clothes and put on makeup.
Today is her birthday, and the whole family wants to celebrate her birthday, so she naturally has to dress up in a grand way.
**********
At 11 o'clock at noon, Ruan Tianling and his whole family came.
Even Ruan Anguo came.
The family dinner started at 11:30, and before eating, they sat and chatted.
Everyone prepared birthday gifts for Li Mingxi.
The gifts prepared by adults are naturally expensive and beautiful.
What Ansel prepared for Li Mingxi was a cookie he made himself. Li Mingxi happily accepted it and gave the little guy a sweet kiss.
What Jun Qi prepared for Li Mingxi was a painting.
The painting shows the bride in a wedding dress and the groom in a white suit kissing in a garden full of flowers.
Li Mingxi held this painting and marveled at Jun Qi's excellent painting skills.
"This kid is really a genius in painting. How long has he been studying and he can actually draw so well?" Li Mingxi asked.
Jiang Yufei smiled and said: "After studying for about two months, we discovered that he has talent in this area."
"We must train him and he will be successful as a painter in the future."
Jiang Yufei nodded, she thought so too.
Ansel couldn't help but interrupt: "Cousin, you only said that Jun Qi's paintings are good, but you didn't pay attention to what he painted?"
"Of course I'm paying attention, aren't there two people?" Li Mingxi deliberately pretended to be stupid.
Ansel shook his head: "The meaning of Jun Qi's painting is that I hope you can put on a wedding dress and get married as soon as possible."
"Did you ask him to draw it like this?" Li Mingxi asked.
Ansel admitted generously, "I asked him to draw it like this, but the whole family likes this painting, don't you think so?"
Everyone else smiled and nodded, asking her to get married soon.
They say the red envelopes have been prepared and are very generous. If she gets married early, she will get a good red envelope.
Li Mingxi kept smiling, but she always just smiled and said nothing.
At this time, she didn't dare to say anything, so she just did Tai Chi.
Soon, it was time to eat.
Everyone had a great time at this family dinner.
…
After dinner, Ruan Tianling and his family took the car back. Li Mingxi also wanted to leave, but was held back by Li's mother.
"Come upstairs with me." Mother Li said to her.
Li Mingxi followed her mother upstairs curiously and went to her parents' bedroom.
Mother Li asked Li Mingxi to sit down first while she went to open the safe cabinet.
Li Mingxi couldn't help but stood up and stepped forward, joking: "Mom, how much private money have you hidden in there?"
Mother Li took out a large box from the safe.
She pulled Li Mingxi to sit beside the bed, then opened the box and revealed the jewelry inside.
Mother Li smiled and said to her, "Look, do you like it?"
Li Mingxi looked at a box of jewelry, his eyes shining brightly.
"Mom, when did you prepare so many jewelry? Are they all valuable?"
Li Mingxi picked up a maple leaf-shaped ruby brooch and compared it to his chest. It looked really good on it.
Mother Li also fiddled with the rings, bracelets, earrings, and other jewelry inside.
She smiled and said: "These things are all what I have saved over the past few decades. Some were left to me by your grandmother, some were given to me by your grandma, and some were bought by your father. I have seen the good ones myself.
