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

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

Xiao Ju Tian was laughing with fire.

She stretched out her hands and put them on her knees to "bake the fire".

Suddenly, half of the firewood fell from the stove.

She picked up the firewood and asked, "Sister-in-law, how many dishes have you made now?"

Zhihua replied: I made five or six dishes.

Xiaoju asked: Today's mother's birthday, didn't we invite a cook?

Zhihua said: Our Yuan family is in the village, and it belongs to a small surname, not a big surname, and all of them have the same surname together, but there are only two or three households.

Let alone! We weren't going to do a big deal, we invited a few brothers with the same surname, a few neighbors, and a few elders (the name of the elders).

So!

Xiao Ju called: Sister-in-law, you have worked too hard.

The flower should say: What is the hard work! I have to do these chores every day.

"Mother, is the meal ready?"

The flower replied: I have to fry a few more dishes.

"Mother, you open the door."

"Your aunt is driving."

"How many of you came." Xiao Ju pushed the door and said:

"Hello Auntie!" Tingting and Meng'er said together:

Xiao Ju shouted: Tingting, Meng'er, you go into the house.

Tingting, Meng'er, they entered the kitchen one after another.

Xiao Ju covered the door and said: The wind is not strong today, I won't latch the door.

Tingting shouted: Mother, there are no fried dishes left, you let me fry them.

The flower called: Don't panic, you sit, and after eating, the female laborers of the family will come over to help.

"What am I going to do?" Meng'er asked:

The flower replied: Don't panic.

"Tingting, you go out to see if the queer people are watching the fire, the fire burning outside can't be stopped, in case the fire stops, those button meat, rice noodles will be half-cooked." The Flower commanded:

"Okay." Tingting turned her head and kept walking towards the door.

Meng'er came to the door of the stove and said: Mother, my sister-in-law and I don't live at home all the year round, and every time we come home, you don't let us do anything! We were both embarrassed.

After all, we are also family, not guests.

Xiao Ju rushed to say: Sister-in-law, you take care of everything! Here's the problem!

Zhihua said: Meng'er, you and Tingting don't think so, my mother is a servant, and I am used to all kinds of housework, if my mother doesn't do housework for a day, my mother will be uncomfortable.

"You rarely come back, and I can't push all kinds of work on you to do." The Flower continues:

Meng'er called: My sister-in-law and I also know! My mother has no malice, and my mother is like a mother and daughter to us.

Even, even more than mother and daughter.

But how old is my mother?

Zhihua shouted: My mother can still move, and the two daughters-in-law don't need to worry.

Xiaoju stood beside Meng'er and said: Meng'er, your mother is hardworking, virtuous, and an example worth learning from.

Zhihua smiled: Xiaoju, you speak really in front of the juniors, don't teach the juniors badly.

Xiao Ju responded: I'm talking really well! Everything I say is from the bottom of my heart.

Meng'er said: Niang was a servant when she was a child, a servant of someone else, she was a servant of her father when she grew up, and now she is a servant of the younger generations, and her mother is so tired!

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

Xiao Ju smiled: You are addicted to being a servant.

Zhihua shouted: Meng'er, Xiaoju, you two bring out the dishes on the stove.

Xiaoju replied: Sister-in-law, you are still cooking, I will stay to "watch the fire".

Zhihua argued: I'll just fry two more dishes, I'll be busy alone.

"Auntie, you can't go!" Meng'er held two bowls of vegetables and shouted:

Xiao Ju picked up the dish and muttered: You go first.

Zhihua glanced at Xiao Ju and called, "Xiao Ju, you tighten the door."

For a moment, the kitchen door was tightly open.

The flower put the spatula and muttered: This will be the wind again.

"Mother, don't close the door! Let's serve the food! ”

The flower smiled and said, "You're here!"

Ying'er leaned her head on Zhihua's shoulder and said coquettishly: We want to eat.

Zhihua pushed Ying'er and scolded: Stinky girl, how old are you, you are still sticking to your mother.

Ying'er replied: No matter how old I am, I am your daughter.

Instantly, the kitchen was packed with people.

Everyone, you come and go, it's not lively.

Tingting was busy serving dinner to everyone.

Qianqian stood aside and handed the bowl.

In the hall, the cries, noises, and noises of children mingled.

The flower shouted: Everyone be quiet! Quietly!

"Today is my mother's birthday, there will be more guests at noon, and after a while, everyone will have to go to the kitchen to help, of course, except for a few children." The Flower continues:

Xiao Ju He said: I wish my mother good health, the older she gets, the healthier she is.

Bingli He said: I wish my great-grandmother a long life of 100 years, 100 years old plus one.

Bingyi congratulated the road: I wish my grandmother evergreen pines and cypresses, and the sun and moon will be bright······

"Okay, okay, okay, let's eat." Mother-in-law of the flower smiled:

He picked up the bowl and said, "If you don't eat it, I'll eat it."

The mother-in-law of the flower responded: "Bad old man, you are the most diligent (energetic) in eating."

Ye Ye replied: I am not diligent in eating, and I am even less diligent in doing other things.

"Hehe~" everyone ate one after another.

Bingyi held the bowl, squeezed to his grandmother's side, and said: Grandmother, today is your birthday, you eat more vegetables (Bingyi tiptoed - took a piece of lean meat and put it on his grandmother's bowl).

The mother-in-law kissed Bingyi and boasted: Bingyi is really sensible.

Bingzhu and Bingli came over together, and said in unison: Great-grandmother (grandmother), I also want to clip it.

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

Bingli climbed onto the stool and reached for the meat.

Bingzhu climbed and crawled, crying: Wow, wow, wow······

"Bingzhu, grandmother has a big birthday today, how can you cry here!" Darl called:

"Hmm! Not! Bingzhu rubbed the corners of her eyes and continued to cry.

Da'er said fiercely: Bingzhu.

The mother-in-law of the flower hugged Bingzhu and coaxed: Bingzhu doesn't cry, grandmother holds you and eats meat.

"Grandma, you want to eat, you put her down." Darl Says:

Mother-in-law of the flower called: Da'er, you have some patience with children, when you were young, your mother ······

"Grandma, don't worry, Bingzhu is my daughter, I will take good care of her." Darl interrupted:

"Mother, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, children's affairs, let's watch more and talk less, let's eat." The Flower Calls:

Ye Ye put down the bowl and shouted: You eat slowly, I am full.

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

Master Ji waved his hand and said: No need, no need.

"I'll go out and see the fire." Qianqian put the bowl and walked straight out of the house.

Bingzhu shouted: Grandma, grandmother, you eat this piece of meat, you take a bite, I will eat a bite.

Mother-in-law Zhihua smiled: Bingzhu takes a bite, and grandmother also takes a bite.

Zhihua called: Mother, I also went to the kitchen to wash vegetables.

"Lin'er, Da'er, after you brothers and sisters have eaten enough, go to the kitchen to help." The Flower shouted:

"Mother, you wait for me, I'll go with you."

"I'll go with you, too."

"Sister-in-law, open the door." Xiao Ju stood at the door of the kitchen and shouted:

Zhihua pushed open the door and called: Xiaoju, come in quickly.

Xiao Ju walked into the kitchen and shouted: Today is a good day, it has been snowing for a few days, and today has finally stopped.

The flower replied: Yes! Mother's fortune star shines high!

"Daddy! How did you get here! Darl glanced out the door and shouted:

Uncle Ji replied: Everyone is busy, I'll come and take a look!

The flower said: Look at what!

He replied, "I can do it."

Hanamichi: Since you can't be idle, you go and move two tables to the kitchen.

Lin Er shouted: Mother, my eldest brother and I will also go.

The flower said: Go, go.

"Mother, I've finished picking the dishes on the plate." Hui'er called:

The flower instructed: You go and wash those dishes and chopsticks.

Hui'er walked to the stove and carefully put the dishes and chopsticks into the pot.

The flower asked, "Queer, did the fire on the stove break in the morning?"

Ying'er replied: It must have not been broken, in the morning, the three of us watched the fire inch by inch.

The flower called: If the fire on the stove is not broken, the dishes on the steamer will be steamed.

But the fire on the stove can't be broken.

"Queer, you go outside and look at the fire, just a slight fire." The Flower shouted:

Queer replied: Qianqian is watching there.

"Mother, how many meters should you put at noon?" Hui'er asked:

The flower should say: 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 60 tubes of rice.

Hui'er ran to the basket and scooped up 60 tubes of rice with a tube.

She scooped up the rice and poured it into the pot.

"Flowers, these tables are there!" He walked in with the table on his back.

The flower turned her head and said, "You put it there, and you can put the food on the table and wash it."

Da'er and they followed up and said, "Let me, let let me."

He set the table and asked, "What else should I do?"

Zhihua glanced out the window and replied: It's almost noon, the guests should arrive, you go to the hall and sit······

"Bang Bang Bang"

The flower continued: Before my words fell, the guests came.

He turned around and hurried towards the hall.

Zhihua shouted: Tingting, you go to your mother's room and go and bring those melons and fruits to the hall.

Tingting didn't make a sound, and hurriedly ran towards the door.

Zhihua came to the stove and "looked", and shouted: Hui'er, quickly take the fish and filter it, these rice grains have to be fished.

"Mother, the rice grains haven't bloomed (cooked) yet." Tingting replied:

"The big pot of rice has to be fished before it blooms, and when the rice grains bloom, it will become a pot of porridge after the steamer." The flower uncovered 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 took the filter and scooped up the rice grains neatly.

Zhihua held the spatula in the wooden steamer and shouted: Tingting, you pick up the rice grains and pour them into the steamer, you try not to move the rice grains in the steamer!

Seeing the scene in front of him, the queer asked: Mother, why do you put a spatula in the middle of the wooden steamer?

Zhihua said: Steaming rice grains in a wooden steamer, there are too many rice grains in the steamer, or, just right, you can't press it by hand, use something to support it, the gap between the rice grains is not big, it is easy to form a clump, easy to form a lump.

She lifted the spatula in the wooden steamer and shuddered.

Queer exclaimed: I see, you shook the spatula, you made the steamer breathe.

"When I see other people cooking steamer rice, they will also use a spatula to put it in the middle of the steamer." Queer Says:

Zhihua took out the spatula and responded: You're not too stupid······

"Crackling"

Zhihua shouted: There are more and more guests, let's make a little more profit.

Hui'er scooped two scoops of hot water and poured it into the pot.

"Hui'er, you have to watch the fire on the stove." The Flower Calls:

"Mother, if you put your heart in your stomach, I won't let the fire on the stove break." Hui'er put a wooden steamer and replied:

The flower reminded: Also, there is less water under the steamer, you have to add it, and you must not burn the rice.

"Mother, the taro is washed." Darl straightened up and exclaimed:

Zhihua glanced at Da'er and said, "After washing, you will go out."

Darl continued: There is no need to help here.

Zhihua said: Xiaoju, Tingting, and Meng'er are left here, and the rest of the people will go out after finishing the work in hand.

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

After the dishes were served, we ate in the kitchen.

"Hmm." Dar and the others walked out of the kitchen together.

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

Ying'er and they followed up and said: Ladies and gentlemen, hello everyone!

"A few young talents are here, you guys are here."

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

Mother-in-law of the flower thanked: Thank you, Brother Eagle! Everyone should be healthy and happy.

The short brother (named because he is short, a few years younger than Uncle Ji) rushed to say: Aunt Ji is so blessed, there are so many people in your name.

Moreover, all of them have a future.

Who in our village can compare!

Mother-in-law of the flower smiled: Everyone is blessed, and they are all blessed.

Uncle Dou (slightly younger than Ye Yi) called: I entrusted my sister-in-law's Hongfu, I was fortunate to come over to eat and drink, and specially prepared a little congratulatory gift, I wish my sister-in-law every year, every year.

As he spoke, Uncle Dou took out a red envelope and handed it to Mother-in-law Zhihua.

"Uncle Dou's heart, I will receive this gift! You take it back. Mother-in-law pushed Uncle Dou's hand and said:

"Sister-in-law, a little bit of my heart." Uncle Dou argued:

Uncle Dou continued: Today is a good day, and my sister-in-law must not shirk it.

Mother-in-law Zhihua insisted on not answering, and said: Uncle Dou, you are a few years older than the woman, how can the woman let you break the bank!

Besides, Uncle Dou's birthday, the woman did not prepare a gift.

Uncle Dou replied: What are you mentioning in the past!

Mother-in-law continued: You can let it pass, I can't get over it.

Uncle Dou said: Sister-in-law, if you don't accept this congratulatory gift, I will treat you as if you look down on the foolish brother, and the foolish brother will return the same way.

After a long time of tossing.

Mother-in-law Zhihua took the bag and thanked: Thank you for the generous gift of Brother Dou!

Suddenly, the red envelope "brushed" to the flower mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law of the flower thanks: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you all for coming to celebrate the woman's birthday!

"Grandmother, I don't have a bag for you." Bingzhu muttered:

"Neither do I." Bingli (Hui'er's daughter) said:

Mother-in-law touched the children's heads and smiled: "You will have it when you grow up."

"Old man, today is my birthday, what congratulatory gift did you prepare for me?" Granny Flower asked:

Ye Ye was stunned and said: You are my wife, I gave it to you, what else do you want!

Mother-in-law reproached: You bad old man with no conscience, I have been married to you for decades, and the most expensive thing you bought me is the pair of torn socks that have been worn for more than ten years.

"Haha······"

"It's time, you go over and carry the food." Tingting leaned against Lin Er's ear and said:

Lin Er shouted: Third brother, let's go to the kitchen to carry the food.

He shouted, "Sit down, everyone, and we're going to have a meal."

Immediately afterward, he ran to the door of the hall and set off a string of firecrackers.

The whole house was bustling with activity.

Tingting They crowded in the kitchen to serve the dishes, and serve the dishes.

Bingli and they gathered around the door of the stove, playing with each other.

Da'er said: You must not cry when you make trouble.

Zhihua scooped the vegetables and responded: You serve the dishes, you are here to scare the children······
