Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 56: Little Orange Lantern

At this moment, everyone's snacks are not much. It's already a great joy to be able to eat candy and snacks during the Chinese New Year. Usually, my mom has to count even the snacks eaten.

This cake is delicious, and it is huge. It's all for the children, like Cen Huai'an. They can eat it freely. Hu Pandeng and the others are truly happy.

All the children ate the entire piece of cake, leaving nothing behind. A few children even ate the cream that was under the cake plate.

After eating the cake, there were delicious dishes that some of the children had never seen before.

Garlic fish filet, cumin lamb, sweet and sour pork loin, potato and pork stir-fry, and lamb stew with cabbage.

All of the dishes Chu Xia made did not include chili, but the taste is still very delicious. There were red dates on the steamed buns, and the children ate them greedily.

In front of Cen Huai'an, there was a bowl of noodles. There weren't many side dishes with the noodles, and the soup was milky white. There was only a poached egg and four characters of "Happy Birthday" carved with carrots, with some green onions sprinkled on top.

"These are longevity noodles." Chu Xia smiled and said to Cen Huai'an, "You have to eat the noodles in one breath without stopping in the middle, as it symbolizes longevity."

Cen Huai'an had never eaten longevity noodles before.

He looked at the noodles in the bowl and didn't know what to say. His heart was full, and he couldn't express this feeling in words.

"Mom." Cen Huai'an couldn't help but turn around and hug Chu Xia's waist, rubbing against her. He really enjoyed today's birthday!

Chu Xia gently patted his back. "I'm here."

Cen Huai'an only hugged her briefly, then sat down with flushed cheeks under the gaze of the other children. He lowered his head to eat his noodles.

Because he had to eat the noodles in one breath, he ate very carefully and didn't break them in the middle.

Of course, even though Chu Xia made only one noodle, it wasn't particularly long. If he was already full after eating a bowl of noodles, how could he eat so many additional dishes, especially when they were all so delicious?

Cen Huai'an ate the noodles neatly, and when he ate the carrots, he felt sorry. The carefully carved words made by his mother had to be eaten.

In Cen Huai'an's heart, this bowl of noodles was as delicious as the cake, even better than all the noodles he had eaten before!

After finishing the noodles, Cen Huai'an and the other children devoured the dishes with gusto, savoring every bite of the delicious food.

Hu Pandeng ate a lot and felt that he couldn't eat anymore, but he still couldn't resist taking a bite of cumin lamb and sipping some sweet soup. He innocently said, "Auntie, if you were my mom, I could eat such delicious food every day."

Before Chu Xia could speak, Cen Huai'an immediately swallowed the meat in his mouth, took hold of Chu Xia's hand, and confronted Hu Pandeng, declaring, "She is my mother! Don't even think about it!"

Hu Pandeng sighed with regret and looked at Cen Huai'an with sincerity. "An'an, you are so lucky." His childish appearance made people want to laugh.

Cen Huai'an nodded. "I know." His face looked calm, as if what Hu Pandeng said was nothing to be proud of, but Chu Xia had already noticed his tail wagging uncontrollably.

She exchanged glances with Jiang Shengnan and couldn't help but laugh. She reached out to rub Cen Huai'an's head.

In the end, all the dishes on the table were eaten clean, and nothing remained except for the soup.
