"Uncle!" Li Zhiling kept adding food to Tang Yi's bowl while saying to Li Youren, "It seems tomorrow is my birthday. I want to hold a birthday party at home!"
"A birthday party?" Li Youren was momentarily taken aback. "What's gotten into you today? Haven't you stopped celebrating your birthdays ever since you turned twenty? Why do you want to throw a birthday party this year?"
That's the way it is with women; as they get older, they become less and less fond of celebrating their birthdays. After all, each birthday signifies getting another year older. Therefore, ever since her twentieth birthday, Li Zhiling refused to celebrate her birthdays. Her sudden proposition to hold a birthday party puzzled Li Youren.
