As soon as Xiao Changkun finished saying this, he immediately regretted it.

He was just excited and blurted it out. After saying it, he realized that he had poked a hornet's nest.

Sure enough, Ma Lan heard this, reached out and wanted to tear him up, scolding, "Xiao Changkun, you bastard, my good son-in-law gave me things, you didn't give them, and you even gave bad ideas. See if I don't dig your old face into a mess!"

Xiao Churan didn't expect the two of them to tear each other up while talking, so she hurriedly stepped forward to block in the middle and said helplessly, "Oh Dad! Mom! How long are you going to make trouble? Don't forget today is Ye Chen's birthday! On such a happy day, you two are making trouble like this, isn't this deliberately adding trouble?"

Ye Chen also said at this time, "Mom, don't be so harsh on Dad. We are all a family, don't make it unhappy because of this little thing all day long. You said that our life is getting better and better, but the relationship between you two is getting worse and worse. If this is the case, I think we might as well move back to the broken house before, so that the family can be more harmonious!"

As soon as Ye Chen said this, Ma Lan stopped all movements immediately and blurted out, "Don't! Good son-in-law, absolutely not! We can talk about anything, moving back to the old house, you can't make this joke..."

Ye Chen shook his head helplessly and said, "Since this is the case, please cherish the hard-won happy life we have now with Dad, and don't quarrel and bicker anymore."

"Okay!" Ma Lan said without hesitation, "No problem! Absolutely no problem! Mom listens to you, and won't be the same as this old dog!"

Xiao Changkun curled his lips and wanted to refute, but Ma Lan glared at him, and he immediately closed his mouth sensibly.

In fact, he had no serious combat effectiveness in front of Ma Lan at all.

If Ma Lan was the steel torrent of Nazi Germany during World War II, Xiao Changkun was at best Poland. Under Ma Lan's iron hoof, he couldn't hold on for a few rounds at all.

So, he sensibly chose to close his mouth after being scolded as an old dog by Ma Lan, and a quarrel was finally considered to have stopped.

Seeing that the two finally stopped, Ye Chen turned and took the elevator to the basement, and took out two bottles of Maotai and two bottles of red wine from the storage room.

The wine collection in Ye Chen's house, whether it was white wine or red wine, was a top-notch brand, mainly sent back during the New Year, and they hadn't drunk much.

Xiao Changkun had indeed coveted these for a long time, but each bottle was worth more than 100,000, and Ma Lan wouldn't let him drink it no matter what.

To prevent him from stealing it, Ma Lan even made an inventory of these wines, and went down to take stock every three days, which made Xiao Changkun, although he was thinking about it, always have the heart of a thief but not the courage.

Ye Chen brought the wine back, and Xiao Changkun excitedly took the wine over, carefully opened the wine, and the sauce-flavored wine aroma suddenly drifted away. Xiao Changkun couldn't help but sigh, "This good wine is good wine! Just smelling it twice makes me feel like I'm going to get drunk."

Ma Lan rolled her eyes at him and muttered, "75-degree disinfectant alcohol smells even more drunk, try it if you don't believe it!"

"What do you know." Xiao Changkun muttered, and hurriedly picked up the cup to pour wine for Ye Chen and himself.

Ma Lan also knew that saying too much would only destroy the atmosphere, so she didn't say anything more, but took the red wine from Ye Chen and took the initiative to open it with a corkscrew.

The family of four filled the wine, and Xiao Churan took out the cake first and said to Ye Chen, "Husband, you blow out the candles and make a wish first, and then we will eat!"

Ye Chen nodded with a smile, this is the standard process of a birthday, noon is like this, evening is still like this.

This is basically the same as classmates and colleagues gathering. No matter which city you are in, the process of gathering is generally eating first, and then KTV.

So, when Xiao Churan took the cake out of the refrigerator and lit the candles, Ye Chen prepared to make a wish and blow out the candles in a familiar way.

Xiao Churan on the side also sang a happy birthday song for Ye Chen. Her voice was not loud, but very gentle. She looked at Ye Chen with big eyes and sang softly: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

Ye Chen made a silent wish in Xiao Churan's singing and blew out the candles.

Afterwards, Xiao Churan said, "Husband, close your eyes, I have a gift for you!"

Ye Chen nodded and closed his eyes gently.

Xiao Churan took out a gift box from behind her, held it up with both hands, put it in Ye Chen's hand, and said with a smile, "Alright, open your eyes!"

Ye Chen looked down and saw that what was in his hand was actually a watch packaging box.

A line of English letters was simply written on the packaging box. Ye Chen recognized at a glance that it was Patek Philippe.

He looked at Xiao Churan in surprise and asked, "Wife, why did you buy me such an expensive gift?"

Xiao Churan said shyly, "It's not expensive, open it and see if you like it!"

Ye Chen nodded, opened the packaging, and inside lay a Patek Philippe Nautilus watch quietly.

At this time, Xiao Churan said softly on the side, "This Nautilus is considered an entry-level style in Patek Philippe. After I finish the Dihao Group project and settle all the upstream and downstream payments, I will buy you a better one!"

Ye Chen hurriedly said, "My good wife, a Nautilus now costs at least more than 500,000 with a premium, right? The price of watches is now being hyped too outrageously. Don't buy me such expensive watches in the future. No matter how good a mechanical watch is, it's not as accurate as the time on a mobile phone."

Xiao Churan said with a smile, "How can that be the same? Men wearing watches is not for looking at the time, it's mainly a kind of temperament. Now men who are particular have several watches. They also have to choose different watches for different occasions and different clothes. I don't want my husband to be picked on when he goes out in the future, especially since your clients are all rich people. They always see you not even wearing a watch, and they must think that your wife is reluctant to buy it for you!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen felt a little moved and said with a smile, "Thank you, wife! You are the most thoughtful."

Ma Lan on the side heard this and gasped, exclaiming, "Oh my, just such a watch, unremarkable, it costs more than 500,000?!"

Xiao Churan said seriously, "Mom, this is a classic style. It's not just expensive in our country, it's the same all over the world."

Ma Lan touched her heart and said, "This is a BMW car worn on the wrist?!"

Xiao Churan smiled, "If you say so, there are also luxury villas worn on the wrist."

Ye Chen said seriously, "Wife. Just buy one watch, don't buy any more in the future."

Xiao Churan said with a smile, "Whether to buy it or not in the future depends on my mood, and second, whether I can earn money. Anyway, it's not up to you."

Ye Chen nodded with a smile, "Okay, okay, okay, listen to you."

Xiao Churan said with satisfaction, "That's more like it!"

After speaking, she hurriedly took out the watch and said to Ye Chen, "I'll put it on for you. You must wear it every day in the future, don't stop wearing it after a few days."

Ye Chen smiled, "Of course I have to wear it every day since my wife gave it to me!"

Xiao Churan nodded, looking at the watch on Ye Chen's wrist, and praised, "Beautiful! Low-key and connotative, much better than those big gold watches that nouveau riche like! Husband, don't take it off, wear it when you go to the concert later!"
