“This old woman is really something else. She’s blind and can barely walk, yet when she hears opera being performed at the village entrance, she just can't sit still. How can she act like a child who doesn't understand anything?!” When the Yang Huazhong family was having dinner at the table, Liu shi came over. She stood in the corner of the table, her eyes fixed on the food, and mumbled incessantly, spitting saliva everywhere. Xiao Hua and Xiao Duo exchanged a knowing glance. Both of them suddenly lost their appetite. Sun realized the issue and stood up to Liu, saying, "Fourth Sister-in-law, have you eaten your dinner yet? If not, come sit down and have a few bites with me!" > Liu shook her hand: "I won't eat. I just want to tell you, Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law, the old woman insisted on coming to the village to watch the play, what should we do?" What to do? Sun Shi could only look towards Yang Huazhong, who was burying his head in his rice bowl by the side. Yang Huazhong finished the last mouthful of rice and stood up, saying: “I’ll go to the old house to persuade her. The doctor has told her not to move around these three months, not even a little bit.” "There are so many people in front of the stage, the village children run around like puppies. If they bump into her, things will be even worse!" Yang Huazhong strode quickly towards the entrance of the hall. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ? As soon as Yang Huazhong left, Liu took his seat and casually picked up the chopsticks he had used, reaching for the bowl of braised fish. Xiaohua said in surprise, "Aunt Si, my mother just invited you to eat together. Didn't you say you wouldn't?" "Liu chuckled and said, "I wasn't hungry before, but seeing you all eat so deliciously now has made me hungry." Having said that, she inserted her chopsticks straight into the bowl of red braised fish in front of her, intending to pick out the fish's eyeballs to eat. Another pair of chopsticks promptly pressed against Liu's. Liu raised her head and saw it was Xiaoduo. Liu's hand secretly exerted strength to resist, and Xiaoduo did not back down. The two people's chopsticks clashed above the braised fish for three rounds with a clattering sound before Liu glared her eyes open. “Third Aunt, don't you care about this little girl Xiaoduo at all? Look at her stinginess! Even when I, as the fourth aunt, just want to eat some leftovers, she stops me!” said Mrs. Liu. Little Duo said: "Aunt Four, don't bring up my mother to pressure me. I won't stop you from eating, but you should at least change your chopsticks?" “Look at this, you're holding my father’s chopsticks in your hand. You like licking up my father's saliva so much?” Mrs. Liu looked at the chopsticks in her hand, and indeed they were Yang Huazhong's. "Hey, your dad didn't catch any contagious diseases. What's the big deal about me using his chopsticks? Why are you being so fussy?" Liu, in an attempt to save herself, dropped a chopstick and used the thicker end to poke at the fish's eye. Xiaohua stood up and directly handed the pair of public chopsticks next to her to Liu shi. “Aunt Four, my family has enough food and chopsticks for everyone. Come, use these public chopsticks.” Taking the chopsticks Xiaohua had passed her, Liu sat down again, not forgetting to glare at Xiaoduo. "Look at that, being a married woman truly makes a difference! She's so much more sensible than those unmarried girls, and her words are so much nicer," Liu said. Xiaoduo pouted, too lazy to pay attention to Liu shi. On the sidelines, seeing this scene, Mrs. Sun could only smile wryly. When Liu saw that the fish eyes had been picked out, she went on to pick at the fish meat. The fish meat was braised with a heap of chopped chili peppers inside. > Mrs. Sun couldn't help but say, "Little sister-in-law, you should eat some other dishes that aren't spicy. That chopped chili pepper is made from the small pointed peppers I grew myself, it's really spicy," “Adding fish, which is spicy, worries me because your body might be a bit delicate. If you eat this and get irritated again later, it would be troublesome.” Here is the translation: Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!Despite Sun's kind reminder, Liu still accepted it. "Well, then I'll just have the chicken and mushrooms." She turned her chopsticks to the bowl of food next to her. > Sun Shi then said: "That's a rooster, not a hen. As for mushrooms, I don't know if you can eat them. Anyway, all the households in our village say that mushrooms are also a delicacy, and they are best used to promote lactation or heal illnesses and sores. It's best not to eat them when you are sick." Liu said, "Then what should I eat? I can only eat the radishes and Chinese cabbage on the table?" Sun Shi was taken aback. The little flower on the side turned her head and pretended to feed Feng'er, suppressing a smile. Xia Duo then let out a giggle. "Auntie Four, it's not that we don't want to give you food, but you just can't eat a lot of the dishes. You can't blame anyone for that!" Xiaoduo said teasingly. > Sun quietly gave Xiao Duo a look, telling her to stop talking. Then, he stuffed a large white steamed bun into Liu's hands and brought the bowl of braised pork to her. "This sauce isn't very spicy, it's just a bit salty, you can try eating it with the steamed bun." Liu laughed and took a big bite of steamed bun, then stuffed a piece of pork belly into her mouth. She ate with gusto. In the blink of an eye, two steamed buns the size of adult fists were gone, and only three or four pieces of braised pork remained. Please note that the " " tags are HTML and remain unchanged in the translation. Xiaohua and Xiaoduo, both having finished their meals, took Feng'er down from the table and retreated to the backyard. They were worried that they couldn't help but laugh at Liu shi's ferocious eating habits. At the table, Mrs. Sun was sitting there, accompanying Mrs. Liu. Liu was complaining to Sun about Tan's many shortcomings while eating. "Since my health has improved recently, I started serving her. Every day, I go to her room and help her with things like emptying her chamber pot and..." > She still looked down on me and kept her distance. Yesterday, she didn't know I was in the room the whole time. It just so happened that Liu'er passed by. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ? "The old woman pulled Liu'er's hand and asked her to see if the box she had hidden in the cabinet had been touched. It really angered me! It's such a good deed that wasn't rewarded!" Upon hearing Liu's words, Sun could only smile wryly. "The old lady is advanced in years, just like a child. Don't argue with her," advised Mrs. Sun. Liu shook her hand and said, "When it comes to pleasing Grandma, I admit I'm no match for that sly fox, Xiao Juan." "She's now using the excuse of taking care of Goudan and Lao Si, she'd be lucky to visit Grandma's place once every two days." >But every time she went back, she would exaggerate things to others. She had actually just given Grandma a bowl of egg flower soup, but to Grandpa, the fourth son, and everyone else, she would claim that she had brought an entire bowl of egg custard to nourish Grandma's health. “I saw it with my own eyes, a bowl of egg drop soup, this big, you can’t even fit an egg in it! It’s like what, fake, too fake!” Liu, fueled by her anger, turned it into appetite. At this moment of reproach, she took a third large steamed bun. He rubbed the steamed bun back and forth in the bowl where the braised meat was, for several times until the bowl was shiny clean, before stuffing the bun into his mouth. Then, he used chopsticks to poke a large opening in the center of the steamed bun. He stuffed napa cabbage, carrots, and bean vermicelli inside until the bun was almost bursting. Just now I put down my chopsticks, and with both hands, grabbed the big steamed bun and stuffed it into my mouth. My cheeks were bulging!
