Since elementary school, Mei Fang, Lin Youxi and Xia Yuan have had the habit of celebrating each other's birthdays together.
However, Lin Youxi and Mei Fang's birthdays are relatively close according to the Gregorian calendar, and both of their birthdays are in February. In order to stagger their birthday celebrations, Mei Fang will only celebrate her lunar birthday.
However, Mei Fang's official lunar birthday is on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the next day is New Year's Eve, so he always moves his birthday forward a few days to celebrate whenever it is suitable.
This year, he and Xia Yuanlin and Youxi decided to celebrate their birthdays together on the Little New Year's Day.
Xia Yuan has also been worrying about Mei Fang's birthday gift these days.
"Fang, what birthday present do you want this year? I feel like I've already given you everything I can in previous years. Piggy banks, wind chimes, mugs, gloves, um... since you're in middle school, how about something different?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't send it... I don't care about it."
"That won't do! We give it away every year, so how can we not give it away this year?"
Xia Yuan pinched Mei Fang's shoulders and said, "How about... giving you a scarf?"
"A scarf? Youxi told me yesterday that she was planning to give it to me..."
"Youxi actually got there first!"
Xia Yuan was a little annoyed, "I forgot to ask her when I was playing games with her yesterday. It turns out that she had already thought of what to give her and didn't even tell me..."
"If you really want to give me one, I don't mind having too many scarves." Mei Fangzheng was concentrating on writing code. "I need to change and wash them anyway."
"So... did you wear mine first or Youxi's?"
"… "
Mei Fang was silent for a while, "I'll wear whichever one looks better first."
"You rascal, you have a nice idea!"
Xia Yuan waved his hand knife and hit Mei Fang's head. "I'm telling you... Don't look at these dense codes today. It's a holiday and you're still looking at this. It's so boring. Wait for Xiaoya to finish her homework and Youxi to come over after dinner, and the four of us will play Monopoly together."
"Then you probably can't be counted on."
Mei Fang shook her head. "She definitely won't finish her homework today. My mom said she won't let her play with us if she doesn't finish her homework."
"How is that possible? I just looked at Xiaoya's winter vacation homework today. She only has two pages of math left to do. There are just a few connect-the-dots and arithmetic problems. She finished them in a short while. It seems that they are memorizing multiplication formulas now. Why is there so much pressure on the second grade of elementary school?"
Sizzle—
Xia Yuan and Mei Fang were discussing when they heard the sound of paper tearing coming from the living room.
"You have so much confidence in Xiaoya, why not go and see what she is doing now."
"… "
Xia Yuan walked out of the study half-believingly and went to the living room to find Mei Ya. He found that Mei Ya was rubbing her hair repeatedly with a ruler. When she saw Xia Yuan appear, she waved to Xia Yuan happily.
"Sister Yuanyuan, I'm going to tell you a secret. You must not tell anyone else. Actually, I'm a magician!"
Xia Yuan has always been very patient and caring towards her younger sister Mei Fang. Seeing that Mei Ya was in high spirits, she also came over with a smile and said, "Wow, Xiao Ya, are you so amazing? Can you show it to Sister Yuan Yuan?"
"Watch out, I'll only perform once, don't let my brothers know."
Meiya held the ruler that she had used to rub her hair, "This is my super magic wand. As long as I inject magic power into it, it will be like this..."
Meiya extended the ruler to the scraps of paper on the coffee table, and all the scraps of paper were sucked up by the ruler.
"What a powerful magic." Xia Yuan applauded after watching it, "As expected of our Xiaoya, you are so amazing, you really are a magician!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
When Mei Ya heard Xia Yuan praising her like that, she couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and laughed, "Sister Yuanyuan, you are so easily fooled! You actually believed that I was a magician. This is obviously a very common static electricity experiment. You must have learned it before. Didn't you pay attention in class?"
Xia Yuan was suddenly speechless and couldn't utter a word.
Am I not playing with you
Xia Yuan wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Well, now that we have finished the experiment, can we do our homework now?"
Meiya shook her head. "This is also homework. It's our natural homework."
"Now there are winter vacation homework for science class? It's obviously a secondary class..."
"Don't listen to my sister's nonsense."
Mei Fang suddenly appeared and grabbed Mei Ya's ear. "You are willing to do everything except homework, right? I don't know who you look like... Well, your father."
"Brother Wuwu is so bad, Sister Yuanyuan, help me!"
"Let Xiaoya go quickly. You'll hurt him. Do you hear me?"
Xia Yuan hit Mei Fang a few times, and seeing that Mei Fang refused to let go, Xia Yuan grabbed Mei Fang's ears, and Mei Fang finally let go.
"I know you're always mean to your sister. You should guide her to do her homework properly."
"That's right, brother, stupid pig."
"How can you be so impatient as a brother? Humph, let me tutor Xiaoya. I promise to make you obedient."
"Okay! Sister Yuanyuan will teach me how to study! Let's go inside and do our homework!"
Mei Ya took Xia Yuan's hand and ran to the bedroom where she was doing homework.
Then Mei Fang stretched out his body, found the remote control, turned on the TV, took out a few oranges from the refrigerator, covered himself with a thick blanket, and lay on the sofa on his side to watch TV.
The hit show on TV now is "Dancing Star". Although Mei Fang has watched it 100 times in his past and present lives, he still finds it very interesting even if he watches it 101 times.
An hour later, Mei Fang was almost falling asleep from waiting for the commercials when the bedroom door was finally opened.
"Brother! I've finished my homework!"
"Mei Fang, look!"
Mei Fang was woken up from his sleep by Xia Yuan and Mei Ya together.
"You can check my homework now! I've finished it. Isn't that great?"
Mei Ya wiped her nose and handed the homework book to Mei Fang.
Mei Fang frowned as he reviewed the homework, then looked up at Mei Ya:
"Did you do this yourself?"
"certainly!"
Mei Ya remained calm and collected.
However, Xia Yuan beside her was already turning her head away guiltily.
"Let me test you... What is 3 times 7?"
"Um… "
Mei Ya frowned and groaned, while Xia Yuan whispered, "Mantra, mantra!"
"Oh, right... one plus one equals one, two plus three equals six, three plus three equals nine, four plus five equals twenty, three plus five equals fifteen, three plus six equals twenty-eight, three plus seven... three plus seven..."
Meiya shouted loudly, "I will definitely not make a mistake this time, no matter what!"
Bang!
Mei Fang saw Xia Yuan making a gesture of holding his forehead.
"Put your palms out! I'm going to spank you! You asked Sister Yuanyuan to help you with your homework, right? Hmm?"
Mei Fang picked up the ruler beside her and prepared to teach this naughty sister a lesson.
"Wuwu, I won't dare to do it again, brother, please forgive me. I will do my homework well next time. Wuwu—"
At this time, Xia Yuan also advised: "Ah Fang, you can't punish such a young child! It's normal for Xiaoya to be playful at such a young age... She will know how to study next time..."
"Ah? How dare you say that? How dare you lead my sister astray? Stretch out your hands! Take off your gloves!"
Xia Yuan knew that he was in the wrong first, so he could only stand up straight and stretched out his little hands with grievance, allowing Mei Fang to hit him lightly with the board three times.
"Brother, you are so biased... You hit me so hard, but hit Sister Yuanyuan so lightly... Humph, I don't like you anymore!"
"If I don't like you, can I find another brother? It hurts more when I hit you because I'm your brother. We are a family, and family members can hit each other so hard."
"Does that mean Sister Yuanyuan is an outsider? You hit her so lightly!"
Mei Ya cried and said to Xia Yuan, "Sister Yuanyuan, please don't become my brother's wife in the future. He will be mean to his family members. What a loser!"
"Uh-huh… "
The aggrieved Xia Yuan rubbed her slapped palm and nodded, "Sister Yuanyuan knows!"
"Wow?"
Mei Ya switched from crying to her usual self in a second. She pulled Xia Yuan's arm and whispered, "Sister Yuan Yuan, don't take it too seriously. Xiao Ya was just joking. It didn't hurt when my brother hit me. I just yelled a few times. You can still be his wife."
"Is that so..."
Xia Yuan pulled her hair and looked away, somewhat embarrassed.
"Oh right... It's almost two o'clock. Why hasn't Youxi come over today? We agreed to play Monopoly together!"
"Then I'll call and ask."
Mei Fang walked towards the direction of his own phone.
Today, 2 chapters will be updated and released together! I will give my thanks for the release of the book later. It will be released at 0:00 tomorrow morning, and I will need your support then.
