"Happy birthday to you...hy birthday to you..."
Lu Zizai sat happily at the small table, and the cool and magical looking 'Lego brick' birthday cake in front of him was so surprising that he couldn't close his mouth with joy. He grinned so brightly that he looked at the cake for a while, his father and uncle for a while, pursed his lips and closed his eyes in the song of their blessings, and smiled crookedly and made a wish in his heart: I hope my toys will grow more and more! Hope my dad is never bothered! I hope my uncle can accompany me on my birthday every year from now on!
Of all the uncles, I like this uncle the most!
Cakes and gifts (*^โฝ^*)
"Huhuhuโโ" Lu Zaizai made a wish for the second time tonight, puffing out his cheeks and blowing a big breath, extinguishing all six candles in one fell swoop.
Lu Ying and Qin Zhuopu finally stopped the birthday song, and they both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Lu Ying picked up the cutter and quickly slashed, and Lu Zizai pointed: "This way to this place, I want a big piece!"
Lu Ying followed him, cut a large piece and put it away. Lu Zizai took it in his hands, turned around quickly, and handed it to Qin Zhuopu: "The biggest piece is for Uncle! Don't be angry, Dad, I still love you. But I told you already, uncle He is a very good person. When I see my uncle, I have to say thank you to him, right? So the biggest food is for my uncle, so don't be too stingy."
He seemed to really think that Dad would be jealous and blame him for being biased.
The small appearance is really not to mention how bad it is... how cute.
Lu Ying rolled his eyes: "I didn't stop you. Today is your birthday. You call the shots." Hmph, being an uncle is so popular, so what if it's a father? What a cunning uncle who can buy people's hearts. The fat kid who will please his uncle is also very cunning.
Lu Ying added in a complicated mood: "I'm not going to be an example, huh!" How could I be a stingy man, so I didn't bother to 'come jealous' with someone who was celebrating my child's birthday for the first time.
Upon receiving Lu Ying's "disdainful" eye attack, Qin Zhuopu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It's really a headache, really want to squeeze his stinky face out of shape, to see how he winks.
"Okay, okay, when I'm on my seventh birthday next year, I'll give you the biggest piece, okay?" What a careful adult, Lu Zaizai is so helpless.
Flattered, Qin Zhuopu hurriedly received the biggest piece of cake, not to mention the unexpected, surprising little gain in his heart.
"Thank you uncle for always bringing me things and coming to celebrate my birthday with me, uncle, let's toast!" Lu Zaizai carried his cake in high spirits, and then approached Qin Zhuopu's cake and touched it.
Qin Zhuopu laughed out of joy, and carefully held the cake and touched Lu Zizai again, "Okay, cheers!" The two cakes suddenly dyed each other and became confused, but Lu Zizai raised his head. Laughing, I was so happy, and then quickly lowered his head and took a big bite, and said happily, "Woooooo delicious!"
Lu Ying tasted the first bite, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "It's really delicious!" The expression was exactly the same as that of a six-year-old child.
Qin Zhuopu, who was staring at him, moved in his heart, swallowed the sweet cake calmly, raised his hand involuntarily, touched the corner of Lu Ying's mouth with his slender fingers, and gently wiped off a little bit of cream.
Still familiar to the touch, as smooth as...
Lu Yingru, who was blown up by the food, was shocked by the electric shock, and his soul returned to his place. In front of the child, do you still want to kill him? Blame this guy for being so rude.
"It's sticking a little cream." Qin Zhuopu smiled lightly, as if he couldn't be more serious.
Lu Ying turned her head to the side and continued to eat cake. I can't afford to hide.
Qin Zhuopu didn't eat much cake, so he took a break after eating a piece, and then stood by and concentrated on watching the "eating and broadcasting" of the father and son. The little fat man eats the cake, his small mouth is brooding, and his fat face is shaking with the rhythm. The more he looks, the more cute he is, he really looks like a cute pig. As for Lu Ying, who deliberately turned his back to him, hehe, the act of being a father and hiding and secretly eating is ridiculous and cute, but he has no point in his heart. This person is always like this, whether intentional or not, every move, every frown and smile, can easily touch the string in his heart. Heartstrings that quiver just for him. So, how could he figure it out, the fact that he was separated from the person he liked so much for seven years.
How could he be willing.
"You mustn't have dinner, right? I'll make you something to eat. Do you want noodles or meals? There are all at home." Lu Ying wiped her mouth after finishing a third of the cake, cleared her throat, and rolled up her sleeves to go to the kitchen Walk.
"Don't bother." Qin Zhuopu subconsciously refused.
"It's not a hassle to make something to eat. Hehe, you are a guest from afar today. If you are left hungry, my son will probably call me stingy again."
Lu Zizai, who would never stop eating the last bite of the cake, hummed: "So uncle, you haven't eaten yet. It's hard to be hungry. I have good news for you, my father's cooking is very, very delicious. Oh, by the way. , Uncle has eaten dumplings made by my father. In fact, my father makes other delicious dumplings. Uncle, you must eat more later. "
Qin Zhuopu patted his head: "Okay, uncle listens to you and eats more, and today I have a good taste of your father's craftsmanship. Uncle used to live with your father for a long time, but he never ate the food he cooked. You Dad couldn't do anything but eat at that time."
Lu Zizai was amazed: "My father used to be so stupid!"
"Lu Zaizai! Qin Zhuopu!" Lu Ying roared in the kitchen.
Lu Zizai rolled his eyes and whispered: "Dad is not attentive in cooking, and he overheard our chat... Then my father didn't know how to cook before, so how do you eat every day?"
"I'll cook it for him." Qin Zhuopu smiled. "Next time, if my uncle is free, I'll cook it for you. Quietly tell me what you like to eat. Uncle will buy it back then."
Lu Zizai was in high spirits when he heard the words, and immediately leaned into Qin Zhuopu's ear and whispered, one big and one small muttering, and the room suddenly became very quiet.
Lu Ying, who couldn't hear any movement, found it strange. She tilted her head with the spatula and saw the two of them talking and laughing quietly. Under the warm yellow light, Qin Zhuopu's eyes were extremely soft.
Lu Ying held the spatula and was slightly dazed.
As far back as I can remember, I heard my grandfather say that human beings are a race that values โโties by blood, and he didn't know what kind of ties it was until the cub was born. Before Cub was born, he never knew that he would like children, let alone the so-called 'responsibility'. There are so many things that I realized when I became a father. Needless to say, the responsibility has already pushed people forward invisibly. Just for the whole world, the only child who has blood ties with him. It can be bitter, it can be tired, and it can even endure starvation.
I don't know if this kind of life is worth it, but this is my father.
There are countless fathers and mothers in human beings who are just like him, giving, ordinary, but gratifying and satisfying, and happy.
When I first knew about the existence of Zizai, I actually had no imagination about my identity as a father. Because he never knew what a father and son in the world would look like. But he was still very happy, he felt that he had company, and in the future there would be more lively with many little people in the family.
He couldn't wait to tell Qin Zhuopu the good news, and Qin Zhuopu would definitely be very happy! Because Qin Zhuopu is different from him, Qin Zhuopu was born as a human son and has a good father who took care of him since he was born. He has seen Qin Zhuopu's smile when he talks about his father. I have seen Qin Zhuopu holding an old photo in his study, sadly. Qin Zhuopu's father is no longer there. But from now on, Qin Zhuopu has his own child, and he will definitely be a good father who loves his children.
Both of them are fathers for the first time. They can learn from each other together, and they can definitely raise the baby to be fat.
At this moment, looking at the picture in front of me, it seems to overlap with the scene in my dream.
After waking up from that dream, he raised the child by himself.
Qin Zhuopu was absent for six years.
But what about later?
Staring at the innocent smile on Lu Zizai's face, Lu Ying knew that this was not something he could decide alone.
The son has grown up slowly, and he will choose with his heart in his own way.
"time to eat."
A bowl full of shredded pork and egg noodles was placed in front of Qin Zhuopu, adorned with a few strands of green cabbage, exuding the fragrance of sesame oil.
Qin Zhuopu, who really didn't have dinner in rush to get on the plane, couldn't help his throat, and sat down politely, "It's hard work."
"Eat it as much as possible, the noodles are easy to digest and won't last you." Lu Ying smiled.
Qin Zhuopu tasted the noodle soup first, "It's really fragrant. The craftsmanship is better than mine."
Lu Ying said proudly: "You are busy every day. Cooking is three days of fishing and two days of netting. How can you compare to me. Besides, Brother Yang said that I have a sharp tongue and a unique talent. Of course, my cooking skills are better than yours."
"I have good luck." Qin Zhuopu smiled at him.
Lu Ying's eyes were dodging, and she was very angry. This stinky guy knows how to use beauty to laugh at people... He is not fooled!
No longer going to see people eating noodles, Lu Ying suddenly got up and urged her son to take a bath: "Go to bed quickly, you have to start school tomorrow. What should I do if I'm late?"
Lu Zizai was already sleepy, and he was looking forward to the first day of school. Obediently go to the bathroom to wash up.
Lu Ying was standing outside the door waiting for him. Although the child could take a bath by himself, he would have a lot of shit at every turn.
After Qin Zhuopu finished eating the noodles, Lu Zizai also washed his face and got into the bed with a flushed face. He was still in good spirits. He raised his neck and kept asking Qin Zhuopu, "Is the noodles my father makes delicious? "
"Well, it's delicious."
"Uncle, are you going home today?"
Qin Zhuopu didn't answer, and looked at Lu Ying. Lu Ying pouted, what can he do if he doesn't go back, he has no place to sleep.
But he didn't want Lu Zizai to say again: "Uncle, how good you sleep at our house, it's already dark outside."
"...Where to sleep? On the floor?" Lu Ying asked his son immediately.
Lu Zizai moved his position under the quilt: "Sleep on our bed! I can only sleep a little bit today."
"..." Lu Ying raised her forehead.
Qin Zhuopu laughed and said, "Okay, uncle really doesn't want to leave."
"No no no! It can't be like this!" Lu Ying shouted anxiously, pushing Qin Zhuopu's back with both hands, "You go to a hotel, the hotels nearby are all open, you can choose as you like. Our bed It's too young, if you add one, you'll collapse!" What a joke, with such a big child sleeping in the same bed with Qin Zhuopu, what's the point of sleeping! He's not... a saint.
Qin Zhuopu was pushed out, not annoyed at all. Instead, with a condoning smile on his face, he kept going out the door, and Lu Yingcai let go. Qin Zhuopu looked back at him, stared at his flushed face for a long time, and made Lu Ying look hot and lowered his head.
Qin Zhuopu endured and said in a low voice, "You guys rest early, I'll go directly to the hotel. I have to fly back tomorrow morning."
"Well...you walk slowly. Cub is very happy today, you have a heart."
Lu Ying buzzed, but the person in front of him didn't move. He raised his head suspiciously, but Qin Zhuopu suddenly approached, pressed his shoulder, and gently placed a kiss on his forehead.
"I hope one day, you can let me be his father."
