"It's here, it's here, the troupe for grandpa's birthday has arrived!"

Sun Xiaomin happily ran into the living room and excitedly announced the news to everyone.

It turns out that according to the tradition of the Huang family, every time I pay a birthday greeting to the old man or the old lady, I have to go to the back garden to watch the play after kowtowing and eating the birthday banquet.

The troupe that comes to the Huang family to sing is basically fixed, each time it is the same troupe, and the location of each performance is also relatively fixed, all on the stage temporarily built in the back garden.

As soon as they heard that the people from the opera troupe had arrived, everyone seemed more curious, especially Song Lexi, who had never experienced this.

Opera is the quintessence left by her ancestors, and Song Lexi also appreciates it very much, but she always feels that her precipitation is not enough, and she can't seem to fully appreciate the excitement in opera.

Many family members have gone to the back garden to see the excitement, today to the old man's birthday, they also stained a lot of light, according to their words, can always get a lot of happy money.

Finally, the eldest Huang Jing'an's family finished the first salute, Huang Maoshan and Jiang Shulan's room came out, and then Huang Jingwen's family came again, and finally it was Huang Jingyun's turn to take Yuan Siye and Song Lexi in.

Song Lexi found that today's old man Huang Maoshan's room has also been carefully arranged, and there is a bright red appearance everywhere, which looks very grand and auspicious.

On the main seat, Huang Maoshan and Jiang Shulan were both smiling and very happy.

"Dad, today is your 80th birthday, I brought my son and daughter-in-law to congratulate you, I wish you a year and a year! Blessing is like the East China Sea, longevity than Nanshan! ”

On the surface, Huang Jingyun acted as if nothing had happened, and the unhappiness with Huang Jingwen was forgotten, and he said with a smile on his face.

said, she took the lead in kneeling down, followed by Yuan Siye and Song Lexi also knelt down, and kowtowed to the old man three times together.

"Hurry up, hurry up, haha!"

Because the old man was happy, his spirit today was very strong, and he reached out to help Huang Jingyun up.

"Jingyun, although you have been here a long time ago, but there are some words, our father and daughter don't have time to say it, and when we have time, we have to talk about it, especially Si Ye has found such a good daughter-in-law, I am happy old man, I am really happy!"

Huang Maoshan said with his eyebrows fluttering, holding Yuan Siye with one hand and Song Lexi with the other, talking happily.

Today's birthday, Huang Maoshan is the protagonist, so Jiang Shulan's words are not too much, and most of the time she looks at a few people with a smile on her face.

Today's birthday celebration has to last for a day, so the thoughts of the old couple can't always be on Huang Jingyun's family, and after the three of them kowtowed and talked about it again, they left the room.

Because there are a lot of things, the whole thing is going back and forth, and it is close to noon.

The kitchen has already prepared a rich banquet, and today's meal is enough to catch up with the panache of the Manchu and Han full banquets.

has lived in the Yuan family for so long, Song Lexi has no similar experience, after all, it is a big family, and the cost of eating this meal is probably more than that of a normal person for half a year.

At the dinner table, the family members frequently raised their glasses to the old man and said words of congratulations.

According to the advice of his personal doctor, Huang Maoshan had quit smoking and drinking many years ago, but today he was happy and drank more red wine, and the effect of alcohol made him ruddy and radiant.

"Grandpa, today we all give your old man's birthday greetings, do you have a red envelope to take?"

Among the juniors, Sun Xiaomin, the youngest, said mischievously.

Her mind is not as heavy as Huang Jingwen's, because of her grandfather and grandmother's words, she also complained about the two of them, but she didn't think about it anymore in the past and didn't take it to heart.

"You girl, what a little money fan! Give, you must give, if your grandfather doesn't agree, come to me! ”

Jiang Shulan smiled all over her face, and said to other family members that although today is Huang Maoshan's birthday, all the juniors who come to pay their respects have red envelopes.

Under the happy atmosphere, many people are also paying attention to the relationship between Huang Jingwen and Huang Jingyun.

According to the family status and seniority, the two sisters should sit together, and the position is behind the eldest son Huang Jing'an, which has always been a habit.

But this time the two of them pulled far away, and from morning to now, they still didn't say a word, still maintaining their original embarrassment.

In this regard, Huang Jingan looked very depressed, today is an important day for my father, even if it is pretending? It's best for the two girls to behave happily at the dinner table, but you see, the faces are longer than the other, so the relationship has to be like this? This is still in front of my parents.

Huang Jing'an made up her mind, after today's good day passed, she must find time to talk to the two sisters.

The noon feast was over, and the good days were only halfway over.

For an afternoon, the family members will accompany the two elderly people to watch a play in the back garden, after all, they are older people, and they still like this traditional art form very much.

For the people of the Huang family to perform, the people of the opera troupe performed quite hard, and took out all the specialty pieces at the bottom of the box, and the theme of this performance was also related to birthday celebrations.

The sound of erhu, snare drums and gongs rings non-stop in the backyard, even in the front house, you can hear some of them.

However, Song Lexi didn't stay with everyone, because she promised to make medicinal food for Huang Jingwen, so she has been preparing since the afternoon.

When making medicinal food, the kitchen servants of the Huang family were all looking at Song Lexi with envy and admiration, and none of them had ever touched this aspect of things, and they all planned to open their eyes well.

Whether it is making medicinal food for the Yuan family or making medicinal food for the Huang family, Song Lexi is wholeheartedly and integrates his hard work into it. Because in her eyes, medicinal diet is not just a simple food, but also a work of art with vitality, and only by doing it with heart will it have the best effect.

The pot of medicinal food made for Huang Jingwen took her an afternoon, and it was not until the evening that it was all completed.

During this period, Yuan Siye came once, but he just stood outside the kitchen and took a look, and saw that Song Lexi was so attentive, so he left without saying anything.

In addition, the old lady Jiang Shulan also sent someone to come and called Song Lexi to go to the front to watch the play together, but in the process of boiling medicinal food, it is inseparable from people, and the heat needs to be adjusted at any time, so she was also politely refused.

The dinner was very ten, still eating and drinking, taking advantage of this opportunity, Song Lexi also brought the finished medicinal diet to Huang Jingwen.

"Oh, it's done so quickly, Lexi, it's really hard for you."

Seeing the medicinal food in front of her, Huang Jingwen said lightly, but on her face, there was no surprise at all.

"Auntie, I have calculated this point, and eating it with normal food, the effect is also very good, if you feel that the taste is acceptable, you can eat a little more at night before going to bed to consolidate the effect."

Song Lexi happily introduced the effects and benefits of medicinal diet.

"Jingwen, what Lexi said is really right! Look at Jing'an, yesterday I said that my stomach is much more comfortable, you are easy to get angry, and the effect of eating it should be obvious. ”

Jiang Shulan didn't know that Huang Jingwen asked Song Lexi to make medicinal food, and after hearing this, she also seemed very happy.

"Oh,"

Huang Jingwen seemed very unenthusiastic about her mother's words, and it was obvious that she was still angry at her parents talking about her behind her back.

Sun Lifu sat on the side, and gently touched her leg under the table, which meant that she should pay attention to her state and not go too far.

But Huang Jingwen didn't seem to notice anything, she just casually stirred the medicinal food made by Song Lexi with a spoon, and then ate two bites.

"Well, Lexi, your skills are indeed good."

Huang Jingwen said, put the spoon on the tray, pushed the medicinal food forward, and seemed to not want to eat it anymore.

Song Lexi glanced at it in his heart, and it was called a wow!

Not to mention that eating too little has no effect, that is, she was busy for a whole afternoon to complete the work, and Huang Jingwen lost interest after eating two bites at random, which is also a bit too disrespectful of her efforts.

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, and I don't know which chef school you graduated from?"

"Huh?"

Huang Jingwen's words are always so unexpected, I think of one sentence after another, why do I suddenly ask this?

"Auntie, I haven't studied in school systematically, but I used to worship a master who can make medicinal food, and she taught me these things."

"I see, in fact, I've always seen it this way, cooking or something, you don't need to learn it at all, who wouldn't? What did you enter a school, and apprenticeship or something, there was no need for that at all, and the taste was almost the same, and I ate some just now, and I didn't think the effect was very obvious. ”

What did she mean by stabbing when she said this?

Song Lexi began to feel disgusted.

"Xiaokai, doesn't your wife also like to cook? But she didn't learn anything, did she? The taste is also very good, and it is similar to Lexi's. And she hasn't been preoccupied with this kind of chores, and has always taken care of her work, which is rare. ”

Speaking of which, Huang Jingwen mentioned her daughter-in-law again.

"Forehead ......"

was suddenly involved, and Sun Xiaokai also felt a little embarrassed.

Song Lexi completely understood this speech!

No wonder Huang Jingwen took the initiative to ask her to make medicinal food or something, it turned out that she wanted to hurt her!

Raise the status of her daughter-in-law by degrading her? This behavior is really too despicable, and listening to this is a feeling that is worse than eating flies.

If others respect her for a foot, she respects others, but if it is the other way around, she always hurts her like this, then she is embarrassed, she is not a silk grass that can be kneaded by others, but she is not so easy to bully!
