Chapter 790: Chapter 638: Are They the Kind of People Who Throw Parties at Home?
"No more." Ning Youguang handed the shrimp back to Shi Wangyue, "You eat, I’ll have the rice noodles."
Shi Wangyue left the shrimp and handed her a bunch of vegetables in return, "Don’t you want to look better? Eat more vegetables to look better. If you can’t finish the rice noodles, I’ll eat them."
The reason for looking better is really hard to refuse, "I could eat these rice noodles three times a week."
Tonight’s dinner.
Teacher Ning gave it a super high rating!
In a week, the two of them hardly eat at home together a few times.
Ning Youguang’s habit is that every time she eats something delicious that Shi Wangyue cooks, she gives feedback by telling him how many times a week, month, or season she could eat it.
This saves Shi Wangyue a lot of time pondering "What to eat today," and also lets him grasp the seasonal eating habits.
"Thanks for supporting." As a chef, the happiest moment is seeing every dish you’ve made completely finished and looking forward to the next meal.
In this regard, Ning Youguang is never stingy with her praise for Chef Shi.
So even if Shi Wangyue comes home late, he is very willing to cook dinner at home.
Of course, both of their time is precious.
So, they always opt for whatever is convenient and simple.
After finishing the rice noodles.
Shi Wangyue took Ning Youguang to the terrace garden to see the trees he received this afternoon.
As soon as the terrace lights came on, Ning Youguang immediately saw several new trees arranged in front of her.
The surprise Shi Wangyue gave today exceeded her expectations.
He bought two Blue Cedar trees.
Each tree is over a meter tall, but they’re not the same height, making them look beautifully staggered when placed together.
The trees are also of good quality.
Whether it’s the color of the leaves, the shape of the trees, or the flower pots they are in, everything jumps beautifully at her heart.
Moreover, besides the two stunning Blue Cedars, there are two smaller Norfolk Island Pines placed next to them.
"Why on earth did you buy four trees at once?" Ning Youguang circled around the Blue Cedars and Norfolk Island Pines, admiring their forms while occasionally reaching out to gently touch their leaves and branches.
"Two on each side," Shi Wangyue said.
"The Christmas atmosphere at home will surely be ample this year." Ning Youguang smiled, "How did you know I like Blue Cedars and Norfolk Island Pines?"
She remembered she hadn’t mentioned wanting these two types of trees for their Christmas tree this year.
"Your shopping cart."
Admittedly, General Shi is always attentive in whatever he does.
There are four Christmas trees to decorate at home.
Ning Youguang got up early the next day, soaking and grinding the raw materials for ointment.
She didn’t do anything else.
Instead, she planned to spend the remaining time decorating the Christmas trees at home with Shi Wangyue.
General Shi is reliable; besides timely delivery of Christmas trees yesterday, the decorations he bought also arrived.
A whole big box of them.
In the morning, when Ning Youguang and he dragged them out from the warehouse, she couldn’t help but express surprise, "So many, our trees will surely be fully decorated."
"Decorate as much as you want. Keep the rest."
Shi Wangyue bought so many decorations because he wanted Ning Youguang to have every decoration she desired when decorating the Christmas tree.
It was their first time decorating a Christmas tree at home.
Previously, Ning Youguang hadn’t mentioned wanting a Christmas tree at home, and Shi Wangyue didn’t bring it up either.
Mainly, from his observation, she wasn’t very interested in Christmas.
To be precise, she’s not particularly interested in any holidays.
"General Shi is generous." During the festive season, Ning Youguang certainly wouldn’t dampen the mood by saying it’s too wasteful.
She knows Shi Wangyue always has a reason for his actions.
Soon, the benefits of Shi Wangyue buying so many Christmas decorations became evident.
Because when they were decorating the Christmas tree, the more they decorated, the happier they became.
This happiness wasn’t just from the sense of achievement in seeing the Christmas tree becoming more splendid and colorful under their hands, but also from touching those bling-bling, whimsical snowflakes, star lights, warm light balls, candies, pine cones, etc., Ning Youguang felt like she returned to her childhood, as if she was in a Nordic fairy tale.
She truly felt healed.
So, while decorating the Christmas tree, she wasn’t in a hurry to get it done, but enjoyed the process thoroughly.
She might not have even realized.
How much joy she felt while decorating the Christmas tree.
The smile on her face was always bright.
But Shi Wangyue noticed it.
So he quietly took a few photos and tossed them into the "Happy Little Fish Pond."
During the days leading up to Christmas, Ming Jinxin and Ming Chao were incredibly busy, managing to only spare a brief moment each day to check their phones and respond to important messages.
Therefore, after Shi Wangyue threw the photos of Ning Youguang decorating the Christmas tree into the "Happy Little Fish Pond," he only got a reply from Ning Yi.
[Ning Yi: Is the darling decorating the Christmas tree?]
[Ning Yi: It looks beautiful!]
[Ning Yi: @Shi Wangyue, send some more short videos!]
Ning Yi has always been fond of praising his daughter. No matter what Ning Youguang does, he would always be the first to give a thumbs-up, even if right now he truly thinks the Christmas tree is too small...
[Ning Yi: Who bought the Christmas tree?]
[Shi Wangyue: I bought it.]
Okay, since the brat bought the tree, he can be criticized a little.
[Ning Yi: Your living room is so tall, why didn’t you buy a bigger Christmas tree?]
The reason Ning Yi could instantly reply on WeChat is that he was the most free person in the family that day, not going anywhere, just staying home with his son doing homework.
Supposedly accompanying his son with homework.
Actually, the very self-disciplined Ning Youyu doesn’t need him to worry much about his studies.
So, while Ning Youyu was doing homework in the study, Ning Yi was nestling on the living room sofa scrolling through his phone.
When Ning Youyu finished his homework and came out of the study, he happened to be hungry.
"Dad, what are we having for lunch?"
"Huh?" Ning Yi was waiting for his daughter’s short video and didn’t hear clearly what his younger son just asked, "What did you say?"
"I said, what are we having for lunch?"
"What do you want to eat?" Ning Yi asked back, handing his phone to Ning Youyu, "Your sister is at home decorating the Christmas tree."
Ning Youyu leaned closer, right when Shi Wangyue sent over a short ten-second video.
He immediately opened the video, "Is sis having a party at home? So many Christmas trees!"
"Are the two of them people who hold parties at home?" Ning Yi looked at his son puzzled, "Where are there many Christmas trees?"
"Isn’t three or four a lot?" Ning Youyu handed the phone back to his dad.
It was only then that Ning Yi noticed Shi Wangyue had sent him a short video.
After watching the video, he finally understood why his son would say that. 1314
