On the morning of the sixth day of the new year, Zhihua and Xiaoju stayed in the kitchen early and were busy.

The flowers are stir-fried and the vegetables are "popping".

Xiao Ju squatted in front of the stove to add to the fire, and the flames were burning and laughing.

Xiao Ju stretched out her hands and sat quietly in front of the stove to "roast the fire".

Suddenly, half of the firewood fell out in front of the "pop" stove.

Xiao Ju was startled, and when she saw the firewood falling on the ground, she immediately reached out to pick it up.

Xiaoju threw the firewood into the stove and asked, "Sister-in-law, how many dishes have you cooked now?"

Zhihua replied: I have fried five or six dishes.

Xiaoju continued to ask: Today's mother's birthday, didn't we go to invite a cook?

Zhihua said: We are in the village, we belong to the small surname, not the big surname, and all the same surname is together, but there are only two or three families.

Besides, we didn't prepare for a big deal, but only invited a few brothers with the same surname, a few neighbors, and a few elders.

So?

Xiao Ju argued: In this case, it's too annoying for my sister-in-law.

The flower continued: What are you bothering about! When we have dinner, everyone will have to come and help.

"Mother, is the dish cooked?"

Zhihua replied: I have to fry a few more.

Xiao Ju leaned in front of the door and pushed it open.

"Hello Auntie!" Tingting and Meng'er shouted in unison:

Xiao Ju called: Sit in the house! Sit in the house!

Tingting, Meng'er, they immediately stepped into the kitchen.

Xiao Ju pulled the door and followed closely.

Tingting shouted: Mother, there are still a few dishes that haven't been fried, so let's quarrel!

The flower replied, "Sit down, and when we eat, you're all going to come over and help."

"Oh! Tingting went out to take a look - did they watch the fire over there, tell them not to stop the fire, be careful not to cook the button meat and rice noodle meat half-baked. The flower exclaimed:

Tingting replied: Okay.

Tingting turned and walked out of the kitchen.

Xiao Ju hurriedly closed the door.

Meng'er walked to the stove to add to the fire, and said: Mother, my sister-in-law and I are not at home all the year round, you have to do everything yourself, we come home, just like your daughter, you don't let us do anything, we both feel a little awkward.

After all, we're still ······

Xiao Ju came over and rushed to say: Sister-in-law, look!

Zhihua replied: Meng'er, you and Tingting can't think like this! Niang was born as a subordinate, and she is used to doing this kind of chores, if she asks her not to do chores!

Meng'er called: We all know! My mother has no ill will towards us, and my mother is like a mother and daughter to us.

Even, even more than mother and daughter.

However, is my mother old?

Zhihua shouted: It's okay! I can still do it for my mother, and my two daughters-in-law are worried.

Xiao Ju stood beside Meng'er and said: Meng'er, don't worry about your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law is so virtuous and hardworking, she is really an example worth learning from.

Zhihua smiled: Xiaoju, don't praise me so elegantly, I'm just a servant.

Meng'er said: My mother is indeed a servant, my mother was someone else's servant when she was a child, and when she grew up, she was her father's servant, and now she is our junior's servant.

The flower replied: "I'm not tired! I'm glad I'm a servant."

Xiao Ju and the others laughed, hehe······

The flower called: Meng'er, Xiaoju, you hurry up and go out with the food.

Xiao Ju replied: Sister-in-law, aren't you still cooking?

Zhihua argued: It's good to fry two more dishes, I can do it alone.

Xiao Ju and Meng'er each walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of vegetables.

The flower is neatly stir-frying.

After a while, the flower drilled to the door of the stove to "add fire".

"Mother, let's serve the food!" the kitchen door was wide open.

Zhihua picked up the dish and said with a smile: You guys are here!

Suddenly, the kitchen was crowded with people.

Everyone serves the dishes, the ones who hold the dishes and chopsticks take the dishes and chopsticks, and the people who hold the rice hold the rice.

Everyone walked into the hall one by one.

The hall was very noisy, and the cries of children, noises, and all kinds of noises converged into one.

Tingting neatly served the meal for everyone.

Meng'er helped Tingting hand over the bowl.

Zhihua shouted: Everyone be quiet, everyone be quiet, everyone eat, eat!

Zhihua said: Today is my mother's birthday, and everyone has to go to the kitchen to help after dinner.

Except, of course, parents and a few children.

Everyone said one after another: I wish my mother good health, the older she gets, the healthier she is, I wish my grandmother a long life, a hundred years old plus one, and I wish ······

Mother-in-law smiled and said: Good, good, good, everyone is healthy, everyone is blessed.

Mother-in-law shouted: Everyone eat!

Ye Ye picked up the bowl and ate it one after another.

Everyone ate one after another.

Bingyi held the bowl and gathered around his grandmother and said: Grandma, today is your birthday, you should eat more vegetables.

said: Bingyi kicked his foot and grabbed a piece of fine meat and put it on his grandmother's bowl.

The mother-in-law of the flower patted Bingyi and called: Bingyi is really sensible! Bingyi also has to eat enough, and when he grows up in the future, he can start a career.

Bingzhu and Bingli squeezed over together, and said in unison: Grandma, I want to clip it too.

Mother-in-law smiled and said: Clip it!

Bingli climbed onto the stool very skillfully and reached for the meat.

Bingzhu climbed and crawled, crawled a few times, and cried: Wow, wow, wow······

Da'er persuaded: Today is grandma's birthday, Bingzhu can't cry!

Bingzhu stood and continued to cry, hmm······

Da'er shouted: Bingzhu.

Meng'er came out one after another to hug Bingzhu.

Mother-in-law Zhihua turned around, hugged Bingzhu, and coaxed: Bingzhu, don't cry!

Mother-in-law of the flower called: Da'er Hugh should be so loud! Don't scare the child.

Darl replied: Yes, grandma.

He put down the bowl and shouted, "You eat slowly!"

Zhihua continued: Dad, I'll serve you another bowl.

Ye Ye waved his hand and called: No need, no need, you eat!

Qianqian put down the bowl and shouted, "Eat slowly, everyone! I'll go out and take a look at the fire."

Qianqian slowly walked out of the hall.

Bingzhu shouted: Grandma, grandma, grandma, you eat this piece of meat, can you eat a bite, and I take a bite?

Mother-in-law kissed Bingzhu's forehead and responded: Okay, Bingzhu takes a bite, and grandma also takes a bite.

Zhihua put down the bowl and called, "Mother, you eat slowly!" I went to the kitchen to wash the vegetables.

The flower immediately walked out of the hall.

After a while, everyone put down the dishes and chopsticks one after another and walked towards the kitchen.

Xiao Ju stood at the door of the kitchen, knocked on the door, and called: Sister-in-law, open the door!

The flower leaned in front of the door and pushed it open.

Seeing that there were people standing outside the door, Zhihua smiled and said: Everyone please come in!

Xiao Ju stepped into the kitchen and shouted: Sister-in-law, today is my mother's birthday, this weather is okay, yesterday it was still snowy, but today it stopped snowing.

The flower replied: yes!

Xiao Ju continued: It's a good sign.

Everyone got to work one after another.

Dar was about to close the door, but he glanced out of the door and called, "Daddy, why are you here?"

Standing at the door of the kitchen, Uncle Ji replied: Everyone is busy, I will also come over to see if there is anything I can help?

Zhihua saw Uncle Ji standing at the door and shouted: "Xianggong, you and Lin Er and Da'er go to the hall and move two tables to the kitchen.

Lin Er immediately walked out and replied: Okay!

The flower called: Hui'er, you go and wash those dishes and chopsticks.

Hui'er came to the stove, poured two scoops of hot water into the ding, and washed it slowly.

The flower asked: "Queer, did the fire on the small stove outside ever break in the morning?"

Ying'er responded: In the morning, the three of us were there watching, and the fire on the small stove had never been broken.

The flower called: If the fire on the stove has not been cut off in the morning, it should be steamed by now.

However, the fire must not be broken.

The Flower yelled: Queer went over there and looked at the fire.

Queer replied: Qianqian is not still looking at it, don't worry.

"Mother, how much rice should I put at noon?" shouted Hui'er.

The flower casually praised: Just put 5 tables of rice.

Hui'er continued: 40 tubes of rice is enough!

The flower said: Put a little more rice, don't be afraid of more happy events, just be afraid of less, put enough 50 tubes of rice.

Hui'er leaned in front of the basket next to her and scooped up 50 tubes of rice with a rice tube.

Hui'er patiently scooped the rice and poured it into the pot.

"Flowers, are these tables on the side?"

Then, Uncle Jie walked in with the table.

Zhihua turned around and answered: Xianggong, hurry up and put it up, and let everyone gather on the table to wash the vegetables.

Darl and the others followed, setting up the table one after another.

He stood up and called, "Flower, what else do we need to do?"

Zhihua replied: "Xianggong, let's go and sit in the hall! It's noon now, and the guests will be here in a while."

A string of firecrackers rang out outside.

Zhihua shouted: Go, go, before my words have fallen, the guests are here.

He ran straight down the hall.

Zhihua shouted: Tingting, you go to your mother's room, take those melons and fruits to the hall, and let everyone taste them first.

Tingting nodded and responded: Okay.

Tingting turned and walked away.

Zhihua walked to the stove, fished out some rice, "looked", and said: Hui'er went to hand over the filter, and by the way, put out the fire in the stove, we should pick it up as soon as possible.

The flower quickly leaned in front of the wooden steamer and placed a spatula in the middle of the wooden steamer.

However, a wooden steamer is placed on top of the footbath.

Hui'er handed over a handful of filters.

Zhihua took the filter and immediately "poured rice" into the wooden steamer.

Queer looked at this scene and asked, "Mother, why is there a spatula in the middle of the wooden steamer?"

While scooping up the rice, Zhihua said: Steaming rice in a wooden steamer, even if there is too much rice in the steamer, or, just right, you must not use your hands or things to support or squeeze.

If that's the case, the rice in the steamer will turn into a pot of porridge.

Zhihua put down the filter, trembled with the spatula in the wooden steamer, and slowly took out the spatula.

Queer yelled: Oh, I see, it's just to breathe the steamer!

"No wonder! When I see other people cooking steamer rice, they always use a spatula to put it in the middle of the steamer." Queer muttered:

Zhihua called: Hui'er hurry up and light the small stove at the door of the stove, and we will put the rice on the pot and steam it.

The flower neatly scoops up the rice soup.

A series of firecrackers rang out outside the door.

Zhihua washed the pot stove and shouted: There are more and more guests, let's be a little smarter.

Hui'er hurriedly came to the front of the ding, scooped two scoops of hot water, poured it on the pot, set up the wooden steamer, and resolutely added to the fire.

Zhihua said: Hui'er carefully take care of the fire, you must pay attention to the water under the steamer, there is less water under the steamer, you can add it, don't let the rice burn.

Also, you have to keep an eye on the fire on the stove, I'm going to cook.

Da'er stood up and shouted, "Mom, what else is there to do?"

Zhihua raised her head, glanced at Da'er, and replied: You are done washing!

Zhihua said: Wait for Xiaoju, Tingting, Meng'er to be left here, and the rest of the people, go out.

Of course, when it's time to eat, you'll have to come and serve the food.

You remember me! We ate in the kitchen.

Queer continued: yes.

Queer they made a beeline down the hall.

There was a lot of "commotion" in the hall.

Lin Er stepped into the hall and shouted, "Uncle, eldest brother, aunt, sister-in-law, hello everyone!

Ying'er and the others walked in one after another, shouting, "Hello everyone!

"Good, good, good, today is my brother-in-law's birthday, we wish my brother-in-law health, happiness, happiness, happiness and happiness, forever."

Mother-in-law Zhihua thanked: Thank you, Brother Ying! Everyone must be healthy, happy, and ······

The short brother (named because he is short, a few years younger than Uncle Qi) rushed to say: Aunt Qi is a good blessing! There are so many people under you.

Mother-in-law smiled and said: Everyone is blessed! Everyone should be blessed!

Uncle Dou (a few years younger than Ye Yi) called: I entrusted my sister-in-law's Hongfu to come over to eat and drink, and intentionally prepared a little congratulatory gift, and I hope that my sister-in-law will not dislike it!

said: Uncle Dou took out a red envelope and handed it to Mother-in-law Zhihua.

Mother-in-law Zhihua said: Come on, come, what kind of congratulatory gift do you bring (Mother-in-law Zhihua pushes Uncle Dou's hand with her hand)!

Uncle Dou argued: Today is a good day, sister-in-law must not shirk.

Mother-in-law Zhihua refused to accept it, and said: Uncle Dou, you are a few years older than the foolish woman, how can we?

Besides, Uncle Dou's birthday, the foolish woman didn't prepare a gift.

Uncle Dou said: Sister-in-law, do you look down on the foolish brother Bo Li, or do you not welcome the foolish brother to come?

After a long period of tossing.

Mother-in-law smiled and said, "Then continue?"

Mother-in-law of the flower thanked: Thank you for the generous gift of Brother Dou!

Everyone handed the red envelopes to the mother-in-law of the flower one after another, and the mother-in-law of the flower thanked: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for remembering the birthday of the fool······

Mother-in-law asked, "Old man, today is my birthday, what gift have you prepared for me?"

Ye Ye smiled stupidly, hehe······

Mother-in-law looked at Ye Ye and called: You conscienceless thing.

Inside the hall, he laughed "haha".

"Serve the food!" Tingting shouted:

Lin Er, they walked out one after another.

Then, he set off a series of firecrackers.

The whole house was in an uproar.

Tingting and their children stayed in the kitchen and ate together.

They laughed at each other······
