MTL - Taoist Master and the Cat-Chapter 46
Su Miaomiao forgot about the roses. The staff of the restaurant were very responsible. After Su Miaomiao and Xie Jingyuan had walked out of the restaurant for a certain distance, the female staff in uniform chased them out enthusiastically.
"Ah, thank you." Su Miaomiao took the bouquet and said politely.
Under the guidance of Su Ming'an, Mrs. Tao, and Xie Jingyuan, Su Miaomiao has become very polite. She must thank others for helping her.
"You're welcome, have fun."
With a smile in her eyes, the female employee took another look at the handsome couple, who are rarely seen in idol dramas, and went back satisfied.
Su Miaomiao held the rose in front of her, and sniffed it vigorously, but she still didn't smell a particularly obvious fragrance.
While handing the rose to Xie Jingyuan, she said regretfully: "This flower is very beautiful, but it doesn't smell good."
Xie Jingyuan: ...
He held the bouquet stiffly, and glanced at the passers-by. Everyone looked at them with a kind of "clearness" that they didn't understand at all. There were even a few young women who were moving together pointing at him and Su Miao. Miao happily discussing something.
Xie Jingyuan silently looked away.
In fact, this is not the first Valentine's Day he and Su Miaomiao spent together.
During elementary school, they often went out with the old lady. When they arrived at junior high school, Cheng Yue and the others would ask him to go out with Su Miaomiao, including Valentine's Day.
Maybe when I was short and young at that time, adults would not misunderstand it as a puppy love, and now I am a high school student...
On February 14th, Xie Jingyuan deliberately remembered this date, and decided that he would never go out with Su Miaomiao on this day every year.
gaming room.
Su Miaomiao exchanged the game coins and went to catch the dolls again.
Xie Jingyuan held flowers in one hand and put his other hand in his pocket, watching her play absent-mindedly.
"Wow, I got it!"
A girl's excited voice came from the other claw machine, and the two looked over at the same time, and saw the girl in a skirt happily clung to her boyfriend's neck, and kissed him on the lips. Doll, but was pulled back by the boy, grabbed the back of the head and continued to kiss.
Su Miaomiao was still watching, when Xie Jingyuan suddenly raised his hand and tapped the top of her head, turning her around.
Su Miaomiao sneaked another look, then whispered to him: "Master Daoist, are they also high school students?"
Xie Jingyuan: "I don't know."
Su Miaomiao: "I think so, didn't you say that puppy love is not allowed in high school?"
Xie Jingyuan: "There are always people who like to break the rules, and they will bear the consequences themselves in the future."
What he said was so serious that Su Miaomiao didn't think about it anymore, anyway, she wouldn't fall in love early.
After grabbing a bunch of dolls, Xie Jingyuan went to the front desk and asked for a shopping bag, the kind with a white logo printed on it, nothing more than ordinary.
Dolls can be taken home, but roses are a problem.
When passing a trash can, Xie Jingyuan said to Su Miaomiao: "This kind of flower is not fragrant, do you still want to take it back?"
Su Miaomiao: "Take it. Mom likes roses the most. Every time Dad gives her roses, she is very happy."
Xie Jingyuan: "Uncle and aunt asked you where the roses came from, how do you explain?"
Just as Su Miaomiao was about to say that it was from the jewelry store, she suddenly remembered that her parents didn't want her to accept such an expensive gift. With a turn of her gaze, Su Miaomiao grabbed the roses and put them on top of the trash can, placing them vertically. It's like a decoration on a trash can.
"Let's go." Su Miaomiao clapped her hands with a sly look on her face that she thought she was smart.
Xie Jingyuan took another look at the rose before catching up to her.
Back home, Su Miaomiao put the two diamond bracelets into the safe.
Don't let your parents see the one that the Taoist gave, and you can't let Gu Jialing who is about to return to school see that the stinky bird will mutter in front of the Taoist.
The new semester started, and the students only saw the final exam results of the previous semester.
Xie Jingyuan was still first in both class and grade, Xu Shou was second in class and third in grade, and successfully regained his original ranking.
Gu Jialing made the most progress, squeezed into the top 20 in the class, and narrowly ranked 58th in the grade, and the next exam will be in the first exam room.
Su Miaomiao's ranking was actually the same as the midterm exam.
Having already experienced Su Miaomiao's concern about grades, this time Gu Jialing did not dare to show off.
Xie Jingyuan affirmed Su Miaomiao's performance: "You have to distract yourself from training, it's already very good to be able to maintain your grades."
How could a mere sentence appease Su Miaomiao's disappointment, she looked at Xie Jingyuan anxiously, and stretched out two fingers.
After eating in the cafeteria at noon, Xie Jingyuan took her to the school supermarket to buy two ice creams.
There are no special school activities this semester, and there is no long holiday like National Day. The students are all immersed in the textbook test questions.
Before you know it, it's April.
April twenty-second is Friday.
After evening self-study and school, the group of four met downstairs in the teaching building and walked to the school gate together.
"Daoist, our birthday is on Monday, so why not pass this weekend earlier?" Gu Jialing walked backwards with her hands in her pockets, looking expectantly at Xie Jingyuan who was walking between Xu Shou and Su Miaomiao.
As early as when they reunited, the four members of Qingxuguan discovered that their birthdays were actually on the same day, which shows that there is a destiny in the dark.
Su Miaomiao said first: "I want a birthday gift, I can't just eat a meal and make do."
The Taoist priest said that he only gave her gifts twice a year, and he gave her the one that was an exception this year, leaving only the birthday presents, not counting the meals.
Gu Jialing immediately said: "I want it too, the Taoist priest can't be partial, what you give me can't be cheaper than what you give her."
Xu Shou looked at them coldly: "Birthday gifts are given to each other. What do you give to Daoist?"
Su Miaomiao whispered: "The Taoist priest doesn't need anything, and he doesn't like birthday presents either."
It seems that when she was two years old, she kissed Xie Jingyuan as a birthday present, but he was disgusted by him with a straight face.
On her third birthday, Su Miaomiao climbed onto the desk in the study room at home, wanting to pick a book from the bookcase to give to Xie Jingyuan, but because the human body is not so dexterous, she accidentally fell off the desk and her forehead bulged A big bag. After Xie Jingyuan found out, he said that he didn't like presents, and he didn't need her to give them any more in the future.
Gu Jialing's conscience was aroused by Xu Shou. After thinking for a while, she said with a smile, "Then let's each prepare three gifts, it's the most fair."
Xu Shou: "Trouble."
He just wanted to send the Taoist priest alone.
Gu Jialing: "This is called going to the countryside to do as the Romans do. Don't you think so, Daoist?"
Xie Jingyuan didn't want to hear them arguing, so he nodded.
Gu Jialing whistled happily: "Then it's settled, the four of us will set off separately tomorrow, and we will exchange gifts the morning after tomorrow."
While Su Miaomiao was eating supper, Su Mingan and his wife were also discussing how to celebrate their daughter's sixteenth birthday.
Su Mingan: "It's still the same as before, taking commemorative photos in the morning, eating out at a restaurant at noon, finding a place to play in the afternoon, and eating cake at home in the evening?"
Tang Shiwei: "Okay, call Xu Shou and Jia Ling together."
Only then did Su Miaomiao remember, and told her parents, "The two of them have a birthday with us."
Su Mingan, Tang Shiwei: …
After being surprised, the couple simply took Su Miaomiao to 1002 to discuss how to celebrate their birthday together.
Gu Jialing: "You guys actually take commemorative photos every year?"
Grandma Tao: "Yes, I went to get the photos and took a lot of them."
Grandma Tao happily went to the room and brought a thick and large photo album.
Xu Shou and Gu Jialing sat side by side on the sofa, looking down together.
This album is specially used to hold Xie Jingyuan's birthday commemorative photos, including the photo of him and Xie Rong and his wife on the day of his birth, single photos of Xie Jingyuan, and photos of his grandfather and grandson. There are actually quite a few photos of him and Su Miaomiao together!
Xu Shou watched, and suddenly understood why the Taoist chief favored Su Miaomiao. It turned out that the Taoist priest really regarded Su Miaomiao as his younger sister.
Gu Jialing could only see that he was full of jealousy, and he also wanted to take a photo with the Taoist priest!
On Saturday, the foursome set off separately to prepare presents.
Tang Shiwei was going to work, and Su Miaomiao went shopping with her father.
For this birthday gift, Tang Shiwei encouraged her daughter to prepare according to the preferences of the three boys, focusing on her heart, but Su Mingan felt that it would not be so troublesome, it would be fair to give the boys exactly the same, and it would seem that everyone is the purest classmate friendship .
Su Miaomiao agrees with her father.
On Su Ming'an's suggestion, Su Miaomiao bought three white shirts of the same style, and Xu Shou was strong and wanted one size bigger.
Su Mingan bought three identical electric shavers.
Although the three boys don't have beards now, they should be getting ready soon at this age.
On Sunday morning, the two families gathered at 1002 to eat longevity noodles cooked by Grandma Tao.
Exchange gifts before eating.
The adults gave them first, and Su Mingan sent three razors and instructed them how to use them.
Tang Shiwei gave the boys three sets of skin care products.
Grandma Tao was the easiest. She gave three red envelopes to the boys, and Su Miaomiao gave Su Miaomiao an emerald bracelet.
Gu Jialing moved her lips, because Zun Lao didn't make any partial remarks.
It's the children's turn to exchange gifts.
When Su Miaomiao took out the three ordinary white shirts, the corners of Gu Jialing's mouth twitched fiercely.
Xie Jingyuan took the gift and gave each of the three monsters a set of exercise books, all of which were for the weaker subjects of the three.
Xu Shou said solemnly: "Thank you."
Su Miaomiao looked at Gu Jialing and swallowed the dissatisfaction in her heart.
Xu Shou gave Su Miaomiao and Gu Jialing a pen, and Xie Jingyuan a long sword without a sharp edge.
Su Mingan: "Yo, this gift is unique, show me."
While Su Mingan was concentrating on admiring the sword, Gu Jialing bitterly took out the gift he had prepared.
Compared to Su Miaomiao and Xie Jingyuan's comprehensive perfunctory and Xu Shou's differential treatment, Gu Jialing's gift was actually the most thoughtful.
He gave Su Miaomiao a small five-digit earring, Xu Shou a set of best-selling house fighting novels, and Xie Jingyuan a newly published Taoist novel "Town of Monsters 2".
Although the price is high or low, it is indeed in line with the preferences of the three.
Gu Jialing's face was slightly sullen, hoping that the three of them would consciously repent for their perfunctory treatment of him.
Xie Jingyuan remained expressionless.
Xu Shou glanced at the elders, and with a reddish face, covered the cover of Zoudou's novel with a white shirt.
Su Miaomiao was staring at "Town Monster 2" in Xie Jingyuan's hand.
Daochang published another book.
Have you made at least a few hundred thousand again?
Earn so much, just give her a set of "High School History Key Encyclopedia"?
Looking up, Su Miaomiao stared at Xie Jingyuan resentfully.
Xie Jingyuan didn't seem to notice, and went back to his room to put gifts.
Su Miaomiao followed immediately.
Without waiting for her to speak, and without waiting for Gu Jialing to catch up, Xie Jingyuan quickly stuffed something into her hand: "Hide it well."
Su Miaomiao lowered her head and saw a pair of ruby earrings, each gem was as big as a cherry.
Su Miaomiao just laughed, and ran out happily: "I'll put the gift home first!"
