In the past few days, the old lady's old stomach disease has been severe and she is bedridden.

Liu Yong invited a well-known local Chinese medicine doctor. Liu Yong said to the old Chinese medicine doctor: My mother's illness is an old problem, when I was young, I had breakfast and no dinner, and this stomach disease came out of hunger.

The old Chinese medicine doctor smiled and said: The old lady is still blessed, the children and grandchildren are full, thanks to the filial piety of the children and grandchildren, if she is placed in an ordinary family, she is not waiting for death at home, where will she ask for medical advice?

Liu Yongdao: Being a man, since ancient times, filial piety has come first. Parents may not feel it, don't wait until they are gone, you will know that it is precious, and then it will be too late.

The old Chinese medicine doctor sighed: What Master Liu said is also true, but how many people can do it?

The old Chinese medicine doctor checked the old lady's pulse, and looked at her tongue coating, and the old Chinese medicine doctor pulled Liu Yong aside and said: The old lady is very old, and she can't hide it, and it is really difficult for the old lady to fully recover. I've opened a few pharmacies here, so that she can recuperate, and it's good to be able to maintain the status quo.

Liu Yongdao: Then Mr. Xie.

......

At night, Liu Yong and Hong Ying leaned on the bed.

Liu Yong said to Hong Ying: I originally thought that now, my family is huge, old and young, up and down, and there are so many people. Not to mention anything else, it costs two or seven stone jars a day just to use water. It's better to move to Shanghai, anyway, the houses in Shanghai are empty, and Shanghai's running water, flush toilets, electric lights, etc. are convenient, not to mention that the silk shops and real estate in Shanghai have to be taken care of. But my mother's problem is not good, and I am afraid that she will not agree.

Hong Yingdao: The older I get, the more I don't want to leave my ancestral home. At this time, if you propose to relocate to Shanghai, she will definitely not agree. After all, she is used to living here, and she is also down-to-earth. In my opinion, this matter will be put aside for the time being, and it is better to wait for her old man to be a hundred years old before reasoning.

Liu Yong smiled and said: Then listen to you.

Hong Ying smiled: Hey, I said, my family Anjiang is not small, and he should also propose to him, and he can also be happy for the old lady.

Liu Yong smiled: Then do you have a favorite in your heart?

Hong Yingdao: There is one that I like. It's the eldest lady of the Jin family.

Liu Yong said again: How do you know?

Hong Ying said with a smile: As the saying goes: The son has a long broom, and the mother has to keep the intestines. Where have you worried about children? Not only do I know about Miss Jin, but I have seen it twice. Once was her as Yanyan's companion, and once was for me to raise An Lu for confinement. Mrs. King brought her along.

Liu Yong smiled and said: The Jin family can be regarded as knowing the roots. It seems that Madame did not put much thought into it.

Hong Ying said again: Girl, Fang Ling is 15, which is the same age as An Jiang. Goose egg face, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a noble appearance.

Liu Yongdao: I don't understand this aspect, so you can arrange it.

Hong Yingdao: An Lu is about to turn one year old, I think An Lu has passed the first birthday.

Liu Yongdao: The Anlu first birthday banquet is no longer held, and the first birthday banquet is held, and this money can solve the urgent needs of several families.

Hong Ying said again: It's okay if you don't hold a banquet, but Dongmei and Qiumei are coming back, and there will inevitably be a lot of things at home. I've waited for a while.

Liu Yongdao: Anyway, I listen to my wife.

......

Last year was a two-headed spring, so this year is only February, and it is time to be stunned. The weather suddenly warmed up, the mountains were green, and the willow sprouted. A spring thunder sounded, and the spring rain, which was as expensive as oil, also fell, washing the earth fresh and moist. The gentle sun shines on the earth in spring.

At the gate of the Liu family's compound, there were two green cloth sedan chairs in front and back. It turned out that Dongmei and Qiumei came to the province with their children and maids respectively. They originally thought that their little brother An Lu would turn one year old, and there would always be a few tables at home to celebrate, but who knew that Daddy insisted on not doing it, but their gifts always arrived. As a result, the sisters made an appointment to come to the province on the same day.

I heard that Dongmei and Qiumei are back, naturally, Xiaoju also came with her child, and Ziwei also came out with her son. When the old lady heard that her two granddaughters had returned, she insisted that the cuckoo come to the hall with her support.

Seeing the old lady coming out, Dongmei and Qiumei immediately stepped forward, took the old lady's hand and asked: Niangniang, you are in good health, how is your appetite, ask long and short.

The old lady smiled and said: Anyway, it's like this, and you can't die all of a sudden.

Dongmei and Qiumei said in unison: You are a hundred years old.

The old lady smiled and said, "Hey, how can there be a long life." Alive, healthy, and hurrying. It's a blessing too.

The most interesting thing is Yunyun, she took Hong Ying's hand and asked: Grandma grandma, what does the little brother call me?

Hong Ying smiled and said: What do you say?

Yun Yun said innocently: Do you call me sister?

elicited laughter from the audience.

Hong Ying took a look at Dongmei's gradually bulging belly, and said with a smile: "Oh, the baby in your mother's belly called your sister when she came out." He pointed at An Lu and said, "He, you have to call him uncle."

Yun Yun said again: Obviously younger than me, he doesn't call me sister, but he wants me to call him uncle, so I won't do it.

Whew, there was another burst of laughter.

The old lady also laughed and said: Which family is that, and what should it be called, I really can't figure it out. Anyway, I know that it is all from a tree in the Liu family. Whew.

Liu Yong came in, saw a large group of women in the hall, maids and children, and said with a smile: Why, today this family has become a world of women and children.

Ziwei said teasingly: Master, what's wrong with this, only when there is a woman in the family can you live and work in peace and contentment. This Anzi, isn't there a female character in it? Isn't it only when you have a wife that you can live and work in peace and contentment?

Liu Yong smiled: Yes, yes.

Hong Ying blushed and said with a smile: Look at your poor mouth. No wonder Tiger Gen now has a woman, as if he has changed into a different person.

Ziwei smiled: Yes, thanks to the blessing of the Liu family, Hugen now has a woman, a family, a son, someone has a meal when he gets home, someone has washed his clothes, someone talks next to the pillow at night, and his life is stable.

Another laugh.

It was Hong Ying who reminded Du Juan, or helped the old lady to go back to the back room to rest, and didn't let her get too tired.

The old lady smiled: It's okay, it's okay. Today I am very happy to see that everyone is very happy, and the people are more energetic.

The cuckoo still helped her back to the back room.

Liu Yong asked Hong Yingdao: Why is there a group of people who are not prepared, how to arrange the meal?

Hong Yingdao: It's too late now, today is Anlu's first birthday, or I'll just make the noodles and ask Ying's sister-in-law to fry some poached eggs and make a few big chops; Or go to Daqing Building to set two tables.

In the end, gossiping, everyone's opinion is still the following article, An Lu is one year old, simple, and the meaning is good.

Liu Yong smiled: That's fine, that's fine.

......

Hong Ying is used to listening to Dongmei's opinion on everything.

After eating, Hong Ying pulled Dongmei to her room, sat beside her, and said with a smile: Ah, Mom will tell you something. A few days ago, I discussed with your father that I should kiss your second brother.

Dongmei said happily: Okay, is there anyone you like?

Hong Yingdao: There is one family that I like, that is, the eldest lady of the Jin family.

Dongmei said: Hey, I have also seen Miss Jin, who was the companion of my brother and daughter-in-law at that time, and everyone was talking about it at that time, saying that the girl was beautiful, and I also paid attention to it. Then go and say it.

Hong Ying smiled: I discussed with your father, and in the past few days, I will ask someone to ask for a new year.

Dongmei Dao: If you want me to see, it doesn't matter if you are a year or not. As long as the two get along, it's more important than anything else.

Hong Ying smiled: What you said is the same, but the rules have always been like this, how can there be a marriage that doesn't talk about whether Nian Geng is compatible or not?

Dongmei Dao: Then you can just follow the rules. You can't ask Daddy to ask for a matchmaker.

Hong Ying said with a smile: One family and one head, it is inevitable to discuss with him. I see that Mrs. Wang is old, and it is not easy to walk, so I will ask Zhang's mother on the other side of Zhuangqiao to go for a run these days, and I will ask for a new year to divinate a hexagram.

Dongmei Dao: That also makes it.
