"Mommy, Happy New Year!"

When I opened the kitchen door, I saw that she was busy in front of the stove in her apron, so I quietly walked up to her, hugged her waist and whispered.

"Oh, you girl scared me to death, why don't you make a sound when you walk?"

She shuddered, probably frightened by me, and said angrily.

"Hehe, didn't you want to surprise you? What are you doing? Do you need my help? ”

I poked my head out and saw her stewed chicken, and looked at her with a smile and asked.

"No, you can go out quickly, and take the hot breakfast in your pot out to eat by the way!"

She said as she chased me away.

"Oh ~ Okay!"

Knowing that she didn't like to be disturbed when she was cooking, I went to the pot next to me and brought out the porridge and buns that were still hot and walked out of the kitchen.

When I came to the restaurant, I put the slightly hot bowl and plate in my hand on the table, and when I smelled the fragrance, I felt like my saliva was going to flow out, so I started quickly.

Millet porridge with steamed buns, this is one of my favorite breakfasts, and after a while, I killed two steamed buns on the plate, and there was not a single grain of rice left in the porridge in the bowl.

When I was full, I went back into the kitchen with empty bowls and plates. My mom had already transferred the pot of chicken to a big casserole and was boiling it over low heat, and she was doing something that looked a little bloody - killing fish!

"Mom, why don't I help you!"

I stepped forward tremblingly, and said cautiously, not daring to look into the eyes of the fish.

"Get out of here, what can you do to help, you're just making trouble here!"

My mother looked at me and said in disgust, scraping the scales with a knife as she spoke, and the tail of the fish was still moving.

After listening to my mother's words, I didn't force it anymore, and walked out of the kitchen until I came to the living room, I was still thinking about the death of the fish just now, and I didn't know if it would affect my appetite when I ate it later!

There wasn't much to help anyway, so I settled down, sat down on the couch, and turned on the TV, ready to see if there was any news to watch. Unexpectedly, almost all the TV shows are replays of the Spring Festival Gala in previous years, or some boring TV programs.

I switched TV stations at random, and a food show caught my eye. This is a program that introduces the traditional food that the locals eat in the New Year, and today we introduce the food that the people in the coastal areas love, almost all of which are seafood. Looking at the palm-sized shrimp, the lively fish, and the plump abalone on TV, I felt like I couldn't stop my saliva. Our city is an inland city surrounded by mountains, and we can't usually eat such fresh seafood, and occasionally we can't enjoy it at all.

Watching the local people eating seafood on TV as common as eating pork on our side, I felt envious and jealous in my heart, and I secretly decided in my heart that in the future, I must take my mother to the coastal places for a walk and eat a lot!

"Mommy, I'm here again, do you need my help now?"

Smelling the smell coming from the kitchen, I walked into the kitchen again and cheekily said I wanted to help.

"I think you're greedy! Don't worry, it's not good yet, if you're too idle, pick these folded ear roots! ”

She pointed to the washed folded ear in the sink and said to me.

"Okay, get the job done!"

I said with a hippie smile and went to the living room with a washed folded ear root and a larger stainless steel basin.

The TV is no longer introducing the cuisine of the coastal area but introducing the cuisine of the Hunan region, watching the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on the table of others on the TV, it is called a red Yanyan, and I feel that my mouth seems to be numb.

While admiring other people's delicacies, I plucked the roots of the folded ears into almost the same length and put them in a basin. Before I knew it, I had plucked the small handful of folded ear roots and piled them up into a hill in a small basin. Looking at this hill, I feel quite proud.

I took the plucked folded ear root into the kitchen, and swung it in front of my mother as if to invite merit, and then begged for praise and hugs!

"Well, that's good! Let's go out and rest, and I'll call you when we're ready to eat! ”

When my mother saw my results, she sent me away and kicked me out.

This is my mother, I hid my face and left, and went back to the living room alone, waiting for the meal to start.

All morning, my mom was almost soaked in the kitchen, what kind of year was this? It is said that the New Year is a family reunion and a happy heart, how can there be a reason to keep going around in the kitchen.

Just when I couldn't resist going into the kitchen again, my mother's voice came from the kitchen:

"Xiaomeng, come in and help serve the food, it's time to start the meal soon!"

Her voice revealed joy and pride, thinking that she was happy, just forget the little displeasure in my heart.

"Oh, right away!"

I replied as I got up and headed for the kitchen. When she opened the kitchen door, she was serving soup in a large bowl, and several dishes were already on the stove.

Looking at the dishes on the stove, I swallowed and walked over to bring them to the table one by one. Cold salad with folded ear root, pea tips with vermicelli, stir-fried shredded pork with garlic, mapo tofu, tomato brisket, sweet and sour tenderloin, steamed pork ribs, West Lake vinegar fish and a plate of assorted bacon, and the chestnut stewed chicken she is serving now. There are 10 dishes in total, and although they are not authentic local specialties, each one is my favorite. While holding it, I secretly took a small bite, and every time I stole it, it felt like I was back in my grandmother's house when I was a child. At that time, the family was patriarchal, and every time there was something delicious at home, I would give it to my two cousins first, and sometimes my grandmother would secretly give me some without telling my grandfather, and the taste was simply the best in the world. Although it was a difficult time, the happiness was also real.

"Little gluttonous cat, what are you stealing?"

I set the table, and as soon as my mother sat down, she looked at me and pretended to be angry and asked.

"No, no, nothing!"

I replied with a weak heart.

"Don't admit it yet, remember to wipe your mouth clean next time you steal food!"

She said with a smile, and used her hand to wipe the oil from the corners of my mouth.

"Hey......

The matter was exposed, and I only had to laugh twice to relieve the embarrassment.

"Alright, let's go!"

When she saw me giggling there, she didn't tease me anymore and announced that she had started eating. As soon as I heard that I could start eating, I quickly picked up my chopsticks and started, and after a while, there were many more dishes in the bowl. I have to praise my mother's craftsmanship again, it's really a pity not to be a chef, I sighed in my heart while eating.

When she saw that I was eating so well, the smile on her face deepened.
