Chapter 104 Auntie came in

In the years.

Master bedroom on the second floor.

After taking a shower, Wu Wanqing put on a smooth silk nightgown and sat in front of the dressing table.

Because today is her birthday, this old aunt who usually doesn't have a nightlife is going to reward herself.

She moved her eyes to the door and made sure it was locked. Then she opened the drawer and took out the things she had been fascinated by but had now given up for many years.

Take one out, put it in your red lips, and light it with a limited-edition diesel lighter. The long-lost feeling will penetrate your throat and reach your lungs.

"Hmm~" The old aunt let out a soft hum.

Because of that dark time in the past, she got into the bad habit of smoking, and the smell of tobacco has been with her for almost ten years.

However, she has never smoked in front of others.

She did it for the sake of dignity outside and didn't want people to see her decadence and depression. She did it at home because her daughter was still young and she didn't want her to smell the smell of second-hand smoke.

But ten years ago, as the relationship between mother and daughter eased, she gradually gave up this bad habit.

Because she wants to have a good body so that she can spend more time with the people she cares about and make up for the missing emotions.

Now, only occasionally when her mood fluctuates greatly, she will smoke a cigarette to calm down.

Well, I smoked today just because I was happy.

On her birthday, Wu Wanqing was very pleased that Wang Luoqi and Wen Yan could come over to have dinner with her.

Although she took the initiative to invite her, there was neither a birthday cake nor birthday wishes, and neither of them even knew that today was her birthday.

But so what?

As she grows older, she loses sight of many things, and it is only the young girl who has just begun to have a love affair that yearns for the unnecessary sense of ritual.

She, an old aunt who has lived half her life, would not expect this.

Well, she wasn't looking forward to it.

"Ding dong, ding dong." A text message came from the mobile phone on the table.

Thinking it was a birthday greeting from a colleague at the hospital, Wu Wanqing didn't pay much attention to it. She had received too many similar text messages today.

After all, after all these years of experience, the seat under her butt has moved up. On birthdays, polite greetings are naturally indispensable.

Human emotions are often strange.

Different people do the same thing for you, but you will feel the difference, because what we care about is not what people do, but the person who does things for us.

Wu Wanqing didn't care about the blessing messages sent by these people, even if they were sincere.

After flicking the cigarette ashes into the paper cup, Wu Wanqing raised her head slightly, and a smoke ring floated out of her red lips.

Looking at the slowly drifting smoke rings, Wu Wanqing's eyes flashed with loneliness. In addition to wanting the company of her children on her birthday, she also wanted to fulfill her children's obligations——

For example, call the old man and talk about family affairs.

pity……

After gathering her emotions, Wu Wanqing put out her cigarette. Although she couldn't communicate by phone, knowing that the old man was still in good health was the greatest comfort to her.

Just when Wu Wanqing was about to stand up, her body suddenly trembled because her peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the screen of her mobile phone that had not been turned off.

The person who sent the text message was not a colleague in the hospital, but her eldest brother Wu Yunbai.

Wu Wanqing hurriedly unlocked her phone and saw the entire content of the text message.

Big brother: "Xiaoqing, happy birthday."

"I am in my old house now, and my second and third sons are also with me. They drank too much just now, so I, the eldest brother, will send you a blessing message."

"The old man is in good health. Don't worry. He arranged today's family dinner. He said he was addicted to alcohol and wanted to drink some red wine."

"He is old, and none of us dare to let him drink, but you also know that the old man has a bad temper. No one can persuade him except that girl Luo Qi, so he just drank a few drinks."

"My daughter is red..." Wu Wanqing murmured softly after reading the message.

She dialed back the phone with trembling fingers. When the call was connected, Wu Wanqing asked eagerly:

"Brother, what your text message means is..."

She didn't dare to ask the rest, fearing that she would be happy in vain.

"Roughly the same."

Wu Yunbai's voice came from the receiver:

"The girl Luo Qi came to the house a few days ago, and the old man introduced her to a few blind dates. In a blink of an eye, the girl has reached the age of talking about marriage. The old man may have fallen in love with her."

"After some time, I will test the old man's tone again. On his birthday this year, we will hold a family dinner to reunite the family."

"Brother, thank you." Wu Wanqing's voice was choked with sobs.

She knew very well that the last time Wu Yunbai tried to test her voice, he got a slap from the old man.

"Thank you for what!" Wu Yunbai was a little displeased: "A brother is like a father. This is what I, as the big brother, should do for you, my little sister."

"Okay, no thank you." Wu Wanqing burst into tears.

There is a big age difference between the brothers and sisters. As the eldest brother, Wu Yunbai takes good care of his younger brothers and sisters.

Especially the younger sister Wu Wanqing, who he has watched grow up since she was a child, so the two have a very deep relationship.

"You are so old and you still cry."

Hearing the strangeness in Wu Wanqing's voice, Wu Yunbai comforted him: "Today is your birthday, so you should be happy."

"Okay, listen to big brother." Wu Wanqing wiped her tears.

"That's right."

The two chatted for a while.

Before hanging up the phone, Wu Yunbai warned again: "You should also take good care of your health, and don't think too much if nothing happens."

"Well, okay." Wu Wanqing nodded.

Holding the phone in hand, Wu Wanqing stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly showed a relieved smile.

Over the years, the depression in her heart was reduced by half in an instant with this phone call spanning thousands of miles.

Wanqing, Wanqing, the name her mother gave her is really appropriate.

The old aunt felt that at the halfway point of her life, her fortune was finally about to turn.

Walking to the full-length mirror and looking at the plump and beautiful woman in her nightgown, Wu Wanqing felt that she suddenly looked a little younger.

Wanting to take a look at her current figure, she tightened her nightgown slightly, and saw a graceful curve appearing in the mirror.

Turning sideways, she focused on the pride in front of her body and the pertness of her hips and hips.

"I seem to have gained some weight." Wu Wanqing murmured softly.

In the past, she was not as plump as she is now.

Looking at the time, Wu Wanqing saw that it was almost eleven o'clock, so she walked towards the big bed. If she didn't sleep, she would have dark circles under her eyes tomorrow.

Well, if a woman wants to extend the shelf life, she can't stay up late to cultivate, and she must get enough sleep.

As soon as she stepped onto the bed, Wu Wanqing suddenly caught a glimpse of the gift box she placed beside her bed.

Because she was in a good mood, she suddenly became interested in opening it and taking a look.

Although she knew that most of them were skin care products or health care products.

I have to say that Wen Yan's vision for choosing gifts is really average.

Taking the gift box in front of her, Wu Wanqing smoothed out her nightgown, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to unpack it.

The first square box: skin care products.

The second round gift box: health care products.

Well, this is very Wen Yan's style of choosing gifts. The corners of Wu Wanqing's mouth twitched slightly. Is this guy reminding her that she is old?

Continue to unpack, health products, health products, skin care products, cakes, clothes.

Huh? Looking at the two gifts at the bottom, Wu Wanqing was stunned for a moment. Why did the painting style change so much?

More importantly, how come there is cake?

She never said that today was her birthday, not to mention Wen Yan, even Wang Luoqi didn't know that today was her birthday.

After cleaning up the health products and cosmetics, Wu Wanqing took out the greeting card next to the cake. On it was a somewhat scrawled blessing:

Don't dwell on the past, cherish the present, happy birthday, this world is worth it.

——An unknown handsome boy Liu.

The font is sloppy, the tone is grandiose and a bit narcissistic, which is very gentle.

Seeing the message that was very Wen's story, Wu Wanqing's lips curled up slightly. After the little guy grew up, he was still so considerate.

Well, I have loved him all these years in vain!

Although Wu Wanqing was happy, she also felt a little regretful that she could not see Wang Luoqi's message.

Alas, this girl still has such an awkward personality.

However, Wu Wanqing was very satisfied that Wen Yan could give her a birthday cake.

While putting candles on the cake, Wu Wanqing muttered in a low voice: "Why prepare so many candles? She doesn't need so many."

Looking at the eighteen candles on the cake, Wu Wanqing's lips raised a smile, isn't that enough?
