Watching her old friends come to wish her a happy birthday, Grandma's spirits were high, frequently exchanging pleasantries with everyone. But throughout the process, a hand that couldn't hide the marks of time was always clasping Sheng Shaochen's arm, sometimes even resting her head entirely on her grandson's shoulder, as though afraid that if she let go, her grandson would run away and leave her behind.
"Congratulations, Old Madam, wishing you a heaven full of blessings and a long life surpassing the pines."
"Old Madam, may your luck be as boundless as the eastern seas and your life as enduring as the southern mountains."
...
Suddenly, Old Madam waved her hand and said, "Alright, alright, go watch the show, everyone. Every year it's the same few lines. Can't anyone come up with something fresh?"
At that moment, someone immediately said, "Wishing Old Madam to be forever eighteen, with a constant companion by her side!"
