Guan Zhu's Birthday

Title: Guan Zhu's Birthday

Met Guan Zhu, Han Xiang, Wei Ting, Cynthia and Michelle (孙女) for dinner to celebrate Guan Zhu's birthday. Although his birthday fell on the 15th, Guan Zhu wanted it to be held on tuesday, 16th. A pity Wei Ting could not join us for the dinner but at least she wrote her wishings for Guan Zhu on the super big birthday card. She claimed that her mother already cooked (已经煮). Well, Han Xiang rebutted her saying,"your mother only boiled the water not cooked the food (你妈煮开水了不是煮饭)." Anyway, seeing her carrying a bag of cup noodles and snacks, i called her auntie.

The place of celebration was the foodcentre near my place. We had fish head curry, sambal stingray, claypot tofu and sweet & sour pork. Then Michelle, Han Xiang and Guan Zhu started commenting when i was eating the fish head curry. The reason for their complaints was: A person with gastric problem still can eat fish head curry (有胃痛的人还可以吃fish head curry). Then Michelle added, "fish head curry is sour and spicy (fish head curry是又酸又辣)." I replied that if it is fish head curry, i can still eat it.

Right after the meal, we went to have dessert. Accidentally, i found Michelle's dislike - Chengteng. haha. That definitely was a funny way of discovering. So once in a blue moon, i ordered for all of them. The order was: dou suan for Cynthia, sweet potato soup for Michelle, ice jelly for both Han Xiang and Guan Zhu.

After getting the desserts all on the table, we began eating.

Here came the biggest joke for the day:

So Michelle asked, "This is sweet potato soup (这是sweet potato soup)?"

Me: Ya, as long as there is sweet potato in it, it is sweet potato soup, (里面有sweet potato就是). (in a state of disbelief)

Michelle then drumed her chest as she seemed annoyed and said,"让我锤心肛" . The next moment, Cynthia was laughing uncontrollably. I was still unclear what was wrong with the sweet potato soup. So i continued eating my favourite chengteng. Still, i wanted to get that mystery off my head so i went on asking again. I asked,"这里的甜品算好吃了，你为什么不喜欢?"

In the end, Cynthia laughed till she could not carry on eating and Michelle was particularly turned off (as if she wanted to faint). So Cynthia who managed to recover from all the laughters, told me there are different soup bases for sweet potato soup. Michelle did not like the soup with chengteng base. Ah, finally, i got enlightened.

Birthday message to Guan Zhu:
Happy Birthday! 哦my天, i have known you for 7 years. I still remember those times when we were wrongly acknowledged as brothers back in our secondary school's days. It can't be helped as our names were quite similar in their pronounciation. I am looking forward to playing soccer with you next year, i hope and i shall wish that you don't get injured so easily anymore. haha. Thanks alot for being my friend. haha. Follow me and say, " No more to Lonely birthday!" (abit lame though)
