The rural life of a peasant girl

Chapter 203 The Crane (1)
"Let's have a look again! After the banquet is over, we still have to meet the Su family, and just like that, we entered the gentry quietly." Someone said immediately.

"I feel so too."

"Yeah yeah!"

All the ministers were discussing where the Su family came from, and did not pay attention to the situation on stage.

This time, Su Ling used a homemade wooden cart with a big five-tiered cake on it, with candles on it, and the singing girl next to her was scattering flower petals behind her and singing a birthday song!

I wish you good luck and longevity.

Happy birthday to you.

Every year has today.

Every year has its present.

Congratulations congratulations.

Wishing you good luck on your birthday.

Hope you have good luck.

Stay healthy every year.

There is joy every year.

Congrats on how happy you are.

Laugh and congratulate you.

Drink a cup with you, the birthday star.

The lyrics of this song are only a few lines back and forth, so when they sang it for the second time, the people below couldn't help humming along.

Of course, these singing girls must have a certain level. Su Ling taught them twice in the background, and this time they will lead them to sing again, and then they will sing in a decent way, but the words in English that they don't understand mean.

It's just that Princess Dongyi under the stage heard Su Ling singing this song, with their country's voice mixed in, "How can this woman know our country's language?" She seemed very surprised, and to put it bluntly, she didn't believe it. A little business girl can speak other languages.

The emperor sitting on the seat was obviously shocked by Su Ling's appearance. Let alone other things, he had never seen this cake before, but he heard it from a distance. The finished flowers were also lifelike, and there were even candles stuck in them. For a while, he couldn't figure out what this thing was for, and he couldn't guess that it was for food.

Besides their ostentation, Su Ling led twelve singers to sing this song, a strange tune he had never heard before, but he could recognize the cheerful sound in it, and it was interesting, except for the two sentences in English Yes, he also understood the rest.

The petals floating all over the sky excited the young lady present even more. Also, the falling flowers are colorful, just like a rain of petals. Girls have romantic feelings. Who doesn't love such a beautiful scenery!

After the song was over, Su Ling took the twelve singers and bowed to the emperor, "The daughters of the people respectfully wish Your Majesty a happy birthday." Su Ling's birthday greetings were not too fancy or fancy. Thinking in her heart, the emperor of course wants to live a long life, so she just said that life is as good as heaven.

"Okay, what a happy life and heaven, I like this very much, and what is this thing you are pushing?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is a birthday cake. In the place where Minnv lives, a birthday cake will be made on birthdays. Minv once read in a book that birthdays are the days when the soul is most likely to be invaded by demons, so on birthdays On that day, relatives and friends will gather around to give blessings, and send cakes to bring good luck and expel demons. It has been passed down to this day, whether it is an adult or a child, on their birthday, they can buy a beautiful cake and enjoy the blessings given by everyone. Because of love for children, when people celebrate their children's birthday, they put many lighted candles on top of the cake, and add a new activity - blowing out these lighted candles. They believe that lighted candles have Mysterious power, if you let the birthday child make a wish in his heart at this time, and then blow out all the candles in one breath, then the child's good wish will definitely come true. At first, only the king was qualified to have it, regardless of Whether you are an adult or a child, you can buy a beautiful cake on your birthday and enjoy everyone's blessings." Su Ling finished explaining the origin of the birthday cake in one breath, of course it was only what she saw in her previous life, and now this dynasty is delicious Dessert, where else has anyone made cakes! "The daughter of the people will take this opportunity to wish His Majesty the best blessings. May I ask Your Majesty, can I come down and blow out the candles?" Su Ling blinked her eyes wide and waited for the emperor's approval, so she dared to make such a request. Others How dare people!

When the queen heard Su Ling's words, she looked at the emperor's beating heart, "Your Majesty..." The bright eyes showed that she didn't want the emperor to go down, "Who knows what's tricky about this, Your Majesty, please respect yourself."

The emperor glared at her, "It's just a little girl, what kind of tricks can you play, don't think that everyone's heart is as evil as yours." To be honest, the emperor doesn't like the queen very much, but it has always been hindered by Baili. The family didn't do anything to her.

The empress concubine de concubine looked at the empress deflated, and pursed her lips into a smile.But when the queen looked over, she immediately returned to her normal expression.

The emperor came down, "Concubine De, accompany me to blow out the candles."

The queen watched Defei follow the emperor's footsteps towards the cake, she gritted all her silver teeth, this time she really did nothing.

After the emperor came down with Concubine De, Su Ling gave a blessing to the two, took out the fire pocket that he carried with him and lit the candles.On the cake were written the words "Furu Donghai Shoubi Nanshan", which looked even more dazzling under the light of the lit candles, and the emperor was obviously very satisfied with this.

"Your Majesty, it is said that you can make a wish on the candle before blowing it out, so that your wish will come true. Of course, your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, so you must get whatever you want." Su Ling's flattery was very flattering. Shrewd and not obnoxious.

"Oh! There is such a saying, then I must try it." Apparently the emperor was very interested in what Su Ling said, so he did as well.

The queen watched from above, and seeing Concubine De smiling happily beside the emperor, her expression was distorted.But this is all her own fault, and she can't blame other people, it can only be said that she has reaped the consequences.

After making a wish and blowing out the candles, Su Ling took out the homemade wooden knife for cutting the cake and asked His Majesty to make the first cut, so that everyone could share His Majesty's blessing.

Su Ling told Huangfutian to ask him to cut the first knife, so that everyone can share the blessings of him and the concubine De, originally there was nothing wrong with Concubine De, but Su Ling felt that it would be very important to Concubine De Pleasing to the eye, he took her along too.

According to what Su Ling said, Huangfutian asked Concubine De to hold the cutting knife, while he held Concubine De's hand, and cut a knife towards the cake. Now, the empress on the seat saw this scene, her expression was even more serious is distorted.

After His Majesty cut the cake, he gave the knife to the servant to divide the cake. Of course, after the servant checked that the cake was fine, he handed the first piece to His Majesty to try, and the rest belonged to everyone. .
