Chapter 406 8th Birthday

Chapter 406 Eighteenth Birthday (1)

"What about the remaining rebel soldiers? Were they all killed?"

Shaking off the slight dissatisfaction in her heart, Shen Xiangwan continued to ask hurriedly. After all, those were ordinary people who were forced to live and had to take up arms to resist. If Wanqi Shan was really that cruel, then he would be the first person she would kill, and she would definitely wipe out his entire family!
"No, everyone in the country is watching the Binzhou battlefield. If Wanqishan really dares to do that, the people can drown them with just a spit from them!"

Because he had people spread the deeds of the emperor and the court everywhere and established the Binzhou rebels as a model of courage to resist oppression, the reputation of the Binzhou army had long been infamous. However, anyone with a bit of common sense would not massacre the captured rebel soldiers at this time. The consequences were not something that Wanqishan or the emperor and the court could bear.

"That's good."

Shen Xiangwan exhaled deeply. As long as he was still alive, he still had a chance.

"After your eighteenth birthday, we will go to the three border counties."

Reaching out and holding her hand, Wei Chengyi looked at her deeply. Logically, he should have gone to the three border counties to take charge a long time ago. Wasn't it because he thought that her birthday last year was too shabby and he wanted to celebrate it for her at home?

"it is good."

Meeting his eyes, Shen Xiangwan turned around and clasped his fingers. It was time for them to go to the three border counties and wait for the arrival of the Western Hu army.

Shen Xiangwan's birthday is in February. She is a person who pays great attention to her birthday, because only on this day can she truly feel that all her relatives and friends care about her, as if she is the happiest person in the world. The two have been married for almost two years, and Wei Chengyi naturally understands her, so after waking up in the morning, he did not go to the study to handle government affairs as usual, but sat by the bed and watched her quietly, waiting for her to wake up.

"Um... Chengyi, good morning!"

Around 9 o'clock in the morning, Shen Xiangwan opened her eyes drowsily, and the handsome face she saw made her curl the corners of her lips reflexively.

Wei Chengyi leaned over and pecked her on the lips: "Wanwan, happy birthday!"

"Thank you."

A happy birthday woke her up completely. Shen Xiangwan raised her hand and hooked it around his neck: "Where's my birthday present?"

"It has been prepared for a long time."

Holding her in his arms, Wei Chengyi picked up the exquisitely carved wooden box on the bedside, took out a sapphire necklace from it, leaned over and put it on her neck: "Do you like it?"
Last year on her birthday, he gave her a sapphire bracelet, this year it was a necklace, and next year he plans to get her a sapphire hairpin or earrings to give her a complete set.

"Okay."

Looking down at the thumb-sized sapphire pendant, Shen Xiangwan nodded vaguely, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips. She was obviously very satisfied with the gift he gave her, although she didn't usually wear jewelry.

"Catch you!"

Scratch her nose lovingly, Wei Chengyi picked her up horizontally, and the two of them quickly disappeared in the room.

Shen Xiangwan's birthday was an event as important as the New Year for the Wei family. The family became busy early in the morning. Zhao Yuping and Yun Mengyi even cooked themselves. Wan and others who came to congratulate also helped. Only Wei Jinghan, Wei Jingyi and Ji Shaohan were left in the main room to look after the child. As for the little cub, he rarely went out to play, but gathered in front of the desk in the corner with a wolf and a dog, and no one knew what he was doing.

"Master, Uncle Yi, Uncle Han."

The couple walked into the main room and greeted Ji Shaohan and the others one after another.

"Auntie!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

“Ahh…”

Seeing them, the little cub immediately ran over, accompanied by a wolf and a dog. In the crib, the almost nine-month-old little ball was babbling non-stop. Shen Xiangwan was undoubtedly the focus of everyone's attention.

"Slow down, be careful not to fall!" Shen Xiangwan broke away from Wei Chengyi's hand and caught the child, then straightened his slightly crooked crown.

"Happy birthday, aunt."

The little cub held up a piece of rice paper covered with graffiti: "This is a gift from me, do you like it?"

"Really?"

Unexpectedly, the little cub would give her a gift. Shen Xiangwan smiled as brightly as a flower. At the same time, she picked up the graffiti that the little cub held high and took a closer look. There were many little people drawn on it. Each of them looked similar, but judging from the number of people, they should be their family. One of the little people surrounded in the middle had a crown on his head, which was exactly the same as the paper crown that Shen Xiangwan gave the little cub on his birthday. Obviously, she was today's protagonist, Shen Xiangwan.

"Thank you, Angel. I like your gift very much and will treasure it."

Although the child's graffiti could not be called a style of painting, Shen Xiangwan still liked it very much and squatted down to kiss his little face.

"Whee!"

The little cub suddenly smiled so hard that his teeth showed and his eyes were invisible. He was so happy.

"Go out and have fun, and stop bothering your aunt."

At this time, Zhao Yuping came in from outside with a bowl of longevity noodles: "Wanwan, come and eat noodles."

"it is good."

After rubbing the wolf and the dog separately, Shen Xiangwan stood up and walked over.

"Eat it while it's hot, it's freshly cooked."

Zhao Yuping placed the longevity noodles in front of her. The white and thin noodles were soaked in the milky white soup, with a little chopped green onion floating on the noodles, which looked very delicious.

"Thank you, mother."

Picking up the chopsticks, Shen Xiangwan thanked sweetly before picking up the noodles and putting them into her mouth. In a short while, she had finished the whole bowl of noodles and even drank the soup.

The gifts had been given out, and the children could no longer hold back, so they ran outside to play while Shen Xiangwan was eating noodles. Afterwards, Yuan Yue and Yuan Ying congratulated him one after another, and Yuan Xiu and Yuan Su also gave their blessings on behalf of all the guards.

"Drip!"

A car horn suddenly sounded, and Shen Xiangwan raised his head reflexively. Not long after, Liang Yuting, who had not been seen for several months, walked in from outside, exhausted: "Finally caught up."

Liang Yuting sat next to Shen Xiangwan and stuffed the cloth bag in her hand into her hand.

"Inside is Chu Liang's birthday gift and letter for you."

It's already February, and the snow outside is still very heavy, making it completely impossible for off-road vehicles to drive. She came here at full speed and almost missed her birthday.

"Thank you."

After opening the cloth bag and taking a look, Shen Xiangwan's face was full of smiles. What she cared about was not the size of the gift, but the affection contained in it.

At noon, there were several tables filled in the main hall. On the tables were all kinds of delicious food, including chicken, duck, fish and meat. Wei Chengyi took Shen Xiangwan to sit at the main seat at the main table. After the servants had served the dishes and left, he stood up holding the wine glass in one hand and holding Shen Xiangwan's hand in the other.
