Chapter 14 Birthday

In the flower shop in Yamanaka, Mrs. Yamanaka was still sitting in front of the flower shop. She looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late. Why hadn't she come back yet?

Mrs. Yamanaka was a little worried, but soon she saw her daughter, who was being carried by a peer named Xia Li. Seeing this, she was also a little stunned. What happened? Did Ino hit her leg?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Yamanaka hurried out of the flower shop and greeted her.

"Mom, I'm back." After seeing Mrs. Yamanaka, Ino's eyes lit up and she shouted immediately, and Xia Li put Ino down at this time.

Mrs. Yamanaka was relieved that she didn't see any injuries on Ino, and then she couldn't help but say, "How can you let others carry you, kid?"

"Well, that, I can't walk anymore~" Ino acted like a spoiled child to her mother.

"Can't walk? You must have been playing around on the road." Mrs. Yamanaka said her guess.

Ino stopped talking, her face was a little red, and she turned her head away, looking like she was hit by the words.

"Sorry, I trouble you." Mrs. Yamanaka was a little surprised when she saw Xia Li, who was not blushing or panting. She had good physical strength.

"No trouble, I also want to thank classmate Yamanaka for leading the way for me." Xia Li said.

"That's right, mom, you see Xia Li said so." After hearing this, Ino felt that Xia Li was a lot more pleasing to the eye.

Mrs. Yamanaka rolled her eyes at Ino unhappily, and then said, "Don't be so stiff, just call this girl Ino, how about this, you wait a little longer, I will decorate it for you, don't refuse."

Xia Li was silent for a while and nodded. Since the other party said so, he could only agree.

Soon, Mrs. Yamanaka came out with a bunch of decorated carnations.

Xia Li was a little stunned. He seemed to have bought only one.

"Okay, here you go." Mrs. Yamanaka saw Xia Li's hesitation and said, "The rest is a birthday gift from Ino and me to your mother."

"Yeah, Xia Li, take it." Ino also said beside him.

"Thank you." Xia Li took the flowers, "Then I'll take my leave."

"Xia Li, see you at school tomorrow." Ino waved to Xia Li at this time.

"Yeah, see you at school."

Mrs. Yamanaka took Ino to look at Xia Li's figure and sighed. What a good child, but Mrs. Yamanaka's face became a little strange, just not like a child.

The next moment, Mrs. Yamanaka was also amused by her own thoughts. If Ino's classmates were not children, could they be adults?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Yamanaka took Ino back to the store. Although the other party didn't care, she should still preach to him, otherwise it would be too rude. Not only would it delay other people's time, but it would also trouble others in the end.

At night, Mrs. Yamanaka told Yamanaka Inoichi, who had returned from a busy day, about what happened today.

After listening to this, Yamanaka Inoichi showed his thoughts and said, "I seem to know him. He should be the son of my classmate."

Mrs. Yamanaka immediately became interested and asked.

After thinking for a while, Yamanaka Inoichi said, "Both his father and his mother are my classmates, but his father should have died before he was born, and his mother should work in Ding Zuo's barbecue restaurant. After all, we know each other, so we should take care of her if we can. But I heard that her work attitude is quite good, and she didn't cause any trouble to Ding Zuo."

"Is that so." Mrs. Yamanaka sighed and said, "No wonder she is so sensible."

"It seems that you like that little guy very much." Yamanaka Inoichi couldn't help but say when he saw Mrs. Yamanaka like this.

"Of course, who doesn't like sensible children."

…………

At Xia Li's home.

Xia Li had already placed the cake, and the house had been cleaned up before, just waiting for his mother to come back.

Thinking of this, Xia Li made a seal again.

"Shadow Clone Technique."

After the shadow clone and Xia Li looked at each other, the shadow clone went out, and he was responsible for observing the mother's position. Xia Li lit the candles after receiving the notification.

As for waiting until midnight, forget it.

After a while, Xia Li suddenly had some more information in his mind, and he understood that the shadow clone had seen Sinai's return and had released himself.

Xia Li opened the box, and the cake inside was still intact, and lit the candle.

Then Xia Li looked at the room around him that was not dark, and after thinking for a while, he pulled up the curtains again, so that the atmosphere would come, and only the light of the candles was flashing and jumping in the house.

Sinai walked towards her home as usual, thinking about what to make for dinner tonight. As for what special day today was, she herself did not realize it.

After all, it has been a long time since this day, and she has stopped remembering this day.

Well, Xiao Xia Li is going to school at the Ninja School now, and the consumption should be greater. I have to make a good meal for him, and Sinai made a decision.

Thinking of this, Sinai came to the front of the gate. Looking at the closed gate, Sinai didn't think much. At this time, Xia Li might still be playing outside.

So Sinai took out the key skillfully, opened the door lock, pushed open the door, and walked in.

The next moment, Sinai was stunned. In the dim room, the light of candles flickered, and under the light was the birthday cake she hadn't seen for a long time. And it seemed that the only person who could prepare all this for her was...

"Happy birthday, Mom." Xia Li, who was standing next to him, smiled and handed the flowers in his hand to Sinai.

Sinai took the flowers blankly and stood there.

"Mom, you can come over and make a wish and blow out the candles." Xia Li looked at the candles that were still burning and couldn't help but say.

The next moment, Xia Li felt that he was hugged tightly, and then he felt the wet marks on his shoulders and couldn't help but be stunned.

Even though he had lived for more than 20 years in his previous life, he didn't quite understand why he was crying at this time. Although he could judge that he was crying with joy, a birthday shouldn't be so happy, right?

Of course, even if he didn't understand, there was one thing Xia Li understood, that is, he just had to wait quietly at this moment, waiting for Sinai to vent her emotions.

Looking at his mother like this, Xia Li also made a decision that he would come back to spend this day with his mother every year on this day in the future.

Sinai was naturally not overjoyed because of the simple cake, but when she saw Xia Li blessing her and looked at the flowers, at this moment, she got the most perfect answer for the pressure and persistence of carrying the family alone for so many years.

Her persistence and her efforts were all worth it. Fortunately, she did not give up at that time, and fortunately, she did not leave with him and leave Xia Li alone. She was also glad that Xia Li had always been so sensible. If it was a naughty child, she might really collapse and not be able to hold on.

The tears at this moment were the tears of liberation that had been accumulated for so many years, and the joy of finding the meaning of persistence for so many years.

Everything in the past is over, and now what she wants is to watch her children grow up slowly.

After a long time, Xia Li did not move, quietly waiting for Sinai to end, but he looked over there and had to say silently.

"Mom, the candle is almost burned out."

"Well, Mom has made a wish, and the wish has been fulfilled." Sinai finally let go of Xia Li and said gently.

"Then... make another wish that has not been fulfilled?" Xia Li suggested after thinking for a while.

Sinai laughed and said, "Okay."

Sinai came to the cake and closed her eyes. After a while, she opened her eyes and blew out the candles that were about to burn out.

I hope Xiao Xiali can live a safe life and find a virtuous and beautiful girlfriend. It would be best if she can have a big fat grandson in her lifetime!
