On Mrs. Niu's birthday, she planned to call everyone in the village in the capital at Fang Mingyuan's house to have a meal together. I was embarrassed to inform Mrs. Hu.

Unexpectedly, Fang Yue said that she wanted to go home, and Mrs. Hu was happy to go to Fang's house for a day. Seeing Fang Yue embroidering a kang screen, it was the picture of the old cow and the begonia spring sleeping drawn under the play that day.

When I asked, I found out that Sister Niu was 55 years old today.

"Okay, you old woman, what's the matter, are you afraid that I will come to eat your noodles on my birthday? I see what you've prepared? Dragon liver and phoenix marrow are reluctant to give me a taste? ”

Mrs. Niu covered half of her face and said, "Oops! Shame on me! What kind of family, what do you do to live your life? I just know how old I am, and I'm afraid that I'll be old and confused year after year, so I'll keep an account for myself. Why are you embarrassed to say it to the outside world? ”

Mrs. Hu said, "Don't talk to me, at our age, one year less than one year, it is time for the younger generations to be filial piety for one day." ”

"No, I'm still young! How can it be less than a year? I'm not bad, I'm in good health! Mrs. Niu patted her heart and said, "Aunt Zhang in our village, I am eighty years old, and I said that I am full of energy, and I can squeeze four buckets of milk a day!" ”

Mrs. Hu smiled and said, "Aunt Zhang, hold back, let her children and grandchildren receive a hundred and two-year-old silver!" It's not like you're getting more and more energetic! ”

When the banquet was placed, Mrs. Niu looked at the wine glass and said, "It's just our house, and no one drinks our wine outside." You taste it, the spicy can't swallow it, and the people in the north love to drink it all these years. ”

Mrs. Hu echoed, "This wine is too strong, I love sorghum red more." ”

Fang Mingyuan sighed and said, "I thought about saving food and brewing wine, but you are still not happy." There is also Chang'an Niang, who recently fell in love with drinking rice wine, adding plums, sugar, tea, and ginger slices to it. You can just boil porridge with rice wine! ”

Dong Xiaoying smiled and said, "I just want to try what tastes better, but I still think that the rice wine brewed by Sister-in-law Hong is good, and today's wine-brewed dumplings are our home-brewed rice wine." ”

Mrs. Hu said, "In the pastry shop, the fruit wine sent from the county lord's mansion is delicious, is there any fruit wine today?" ”

Come on, seeing that the liquor that he thought could make a lot of money was disliked and withdrawn, Fang Mingyuan had no confidence in the liquor business at all.

At the banquet, Mrs. Niu talked about the birthday banquet when she was fifty years old.

"The left can't wait, the right can't wait, let Changxi, Changbao wait at the entrance of the village, Changxi plays slingshot and owe to hit the road, but it happened to hit the mule cart of the fourth daughter-in-law.

The fourth daughter-in-law was not hit, how old was Chang'an at that time, and the child was noisy to catch the car to play, so she clinged to the child. I also dared to hold the chick in the car.

The mule cart overturned into a ditch, and a few people did not run away, and all the cars went underneath. Changxi howled in fright, and there was no one to call, and Changbao peed his pants in fright. ”

Fang Mingquan said, "The first time I ate rice and white rice, it was the banquet that the fourth brother and sister gave to my mother Zhang Luo. Now I don't want to eat it every day, I can eat white rice in my mouth if I want to, why don't I feel that the bowl of white rice is sweet as the four brothers and sisters! ”

Mrs. Niu said angrily, "I think I should be hungry for you, the rice and white rice are not sweet, why do you have the face to say?" Your father only ate a bite of white rice when he was dying, and he steamed a bowl the size of a fist. borrowed money to buy rice, and almost didn't let your aunt mix me to death. ”

"Mother, what are you talking about!" Fang Mingquan stopped Mrs. Niu's words.

Dong Xiaoying smiled and said, "There is chicken head rice today, as well as jasper japonica rice, how about the second uncle taste today's rice." ”

Zhao said, "Brother and sister, don't let him taste it, my mother said, it's best to be hungry." The white rice is not fragrant, what are you going to eat? Hungry for three meals, everything you eat is fragrant. ”

Fang Mingcai said, "That's different, today's white rice is very clean and clean, all of them are crystal green, and they are not ordinary when you look at them." I asked people to fry a bowl of chicken head rice, and when I sprinkled it with salt, it was served, so that it could be served as a snack! ”

Mrs. Hu smiled and said, "Tsk, at first glance, it is a person from the north, a person from the south, don't sprinkle salt on the fried chicken head rice, and sprinkle a handful of sugar on the top of the child to eat." ”

Mrs. Niu said, "There is sugar in the south, how expensive is the sugar here!" The squire's landlord's family was also reluctant to sprinkle a handful of sugar on the child. ”

After eating, Fang Mingquan and Zhao gave birthday gifts first, "This is the eldest brother and sister-in-law, I have been hiding for two months, my mother will open it and take a look." ”

Mrs. Niu opened the box, the tuanhua red gold pressed skirt was placed in the center, and the red wrapper was half opened, and Mrs. Niu covered it, "The little clothes made by the eldest daughter-in-law for me." ”

like to wear pink belly pockets, red panties, and green socks. Fang Yue lowered her head and laughed muffled, and laughed out loud when she was slapped by her mother.

"This kid loves to be silly!" Dong Xiaoying explained dryly.

Mrs. Niu glanced at her little granddaughter, and then looked at the birthday gift of the second family, a red gold crested hairpin.

"My mother is now an old lady, and she can wear a crested head!" Fang Mingquan shouted with a smile.

Erniu made a pack of socks with her own hands, and all kinds of green were placed in a row, like a color gradient layer. Changxi wrote a hundred different longevity characters to the old lady, and they haven't been framed yet.

The clothes that Fang sent to make his own hands should be the best material that people can buy on the market in Leping.

Fang Mingyuan took Dong Xiaoying to kneel down and handed over a pair of jade bracelets prepared, "It is said that people raise jade, jade raises people, may my mother stay young forever, healthy and long-lived." ”

Chang'an asked his sister to come first, and ran to the back room to pick up the box.

Fang Yue pointed to the kang screen and said, "My birthday gift, my grandmother has already seen it." Let's talk about it first! I can't embroider for a month, I asked the embroiderer to help, but my filial piety milk saw it! ”

After Chang'an knelt down to pay homage, he sat cross-legged on the ground, opened the wooden box, screwed the clockwork, and let Mrs. Niu see it.

"What is this? Oops, is it a gold ingot? Take it down. Mrs. Niu looked at Chang'an's birthday gift, her eyes were round, and she was reluctant to blink.

Chang'an's birthday gift is a children's toy in modern times.

After clockwork, a few little mice came out of the cave, lined up and slid forward, and when they touched the bayonet, a small gold ingot rolled down the gold mountain. The little mouse pushed the gold ingots forward and circled into the cave.

There is a mechanism in the cave, and the gold ingots that enter the cave first pass through the mechanism and roll back to the gold mountain again, and the little mouse slides by inertia, and then comes out to transport the gold ingots in a circle.

"This is really a coincidence, Chang'an has opened the trick in this regard!" Mrs. Hu stared at the toy of the mouse transporting gold, "My eyes are glazed after looking at it for a long time, how many mice are there?" ”

Mrs. Niu said, "The mouse doesn't care about it, I can see that there are only three golden beans, which look like ingots at first glance, but they are actually round and round." ”

Mrs. Hu smiled and said, "Oh, only three mice? This circle is dazzling. ”

Mrs. Niu said, "You see, the golden beans are actually faster than the mouses. ”

After a while, the clockwork strength ran out, and the rat and the golden bean stopped outside the cave.

"You go in!" Mrs. Niu reached out and pushed the little mouse into the hole.

Mrs. Hu complained, "Look at your fast hands, I still want to see, why are the mice running!" Take it out and I'll see. ”

When dinner was served, Mrs. Li came back, and Mrs. Li watched the toys spin in circles without blinking, and sighed that it would be good if there was really a mountain of gold at home!

Mrs. Hu was the most direct, "On my birthday in October, Chang'an remembered to make me a more fun." ”

"What, I'll forget about the gold and the mountains, can you make me a gold and silver to transport home? Replace the cave with a house in our village, and all the wealth will be transported home. Mrs. Li was not confident enough to make a request.

Guo Mancang sighed and said, "Auntie, just this one, my eyes are sour, it's not easy to do." ”
