Me and my cousins

? My mother has an older brother, and my father has four sisters, so I have several cousins ????and sisters. When I was a child, I would have the opportunity to get together with them and play together during the holidays. In each other’s memories, there are many stories of adventure, fun and teasing adults. When we grow up and have a family, we integrate into different circles in different cities, and there are only a few years. During festivals, I will walk with the elderly.

? Last year, I sprained my foot and was unable to walk, so I was forced to recuperate in the hospital. Just in time, my cousin came to the hospital for treatment due to low back pain, so she stayed without saying anything, taking care of both the treatment and bedside care, and taking care of the lightly injured. The wounded man took care of my food and daily life every day. When we were free, we chatted and discussed the ground, which helped me, a left-behind woman, to overcome the small difficulties.

Recently, my cousin came to Xu from Yingcheng and came to our hospital to learn Gua Sha and stayed at home. We were able to eat and live together, go out and go in together, and we all enjoyed the ancient city customs and tasted Weidu together. Food, communication, good at cooking, sighing that life is short, and after a few days, they seemed to be like a couple of gods and gods.

She handed over a warm glass of water when she was eating, and handed over a moist towel when she finished eating the fruit; the most admirable thing is that she has entered the team of professional caregivers early, and the results are remarkable. Her grandson who just went to school is a legend. Children from other families: can talk and care for others, help adults cook and wash dishes, like to study, and are good at playing chess. I think there must be factors of talent and intelligence, but the influence of acquired environment is also inseparable.

My cousin is smart, self-disciplined and self-sufficient. Although she is middle-aged, she still maintains a girl-like figure. Every morning when I was still sleeping soundly, she had already greeted the world and completed the prescribed actions for fitness and body shaping for the day. Photography, reading, reading aloud and baking were also necessary in life. I saw a flower, a yellow leaf and a few mature and plump hanging roots. She has to stop to take photos when she is wearing a loofah. A book, a good reading, and a new baking project are her joys. Not only does she have a wide range of hobbies and is good at learning, but she is also very organized and efficient in doing things.

A few years ago, by chance, I watched her make cakes for the first time. At that time, I felt that what I ate was not only delicious but also tasted the love of life. Her house is not big, and the kitchen is occupied by various baking utensils and ingredients. There is only a small work surface, but seeing her skillfully taking turns to take out various supplies and ingredients from the closet and refrigerator, she quickly Clean it up and put it back in its original place, and in an instant something wonderful and delicious is born. My personal habit is to tidy up all the operations after finishing them, which often leaves the dishes in the kitchen in a mess; I also know that the kitchens in many people’s homes are spacious but just for decoration. They rarely “wash their hands and make soup” for their loved ones and themselves, and take turns ordering them every day. Watching the takeaways around him and contributing to the performance of the courier guy is something that none of us appreciate. So when she came, I bought the ingredients and mixed them carefully, rolled the noodles, turned the pot, stirred the spoon, set the fire, and enthusiastically demonstrated my cooking skills. She also actively cooperated with the daily implementation of "Operation CD" to boost my self-confidence. Super satisfied.

I cook for her, I cook for her, she cleans the pot, I arrange the dishes for her to take photos. We are two cousins ??who have not communicated well for decades, but we are like a pair of partners who have been training strictly for a long time! We work together in harmony and complement each other. Is it the blood connection in our bones that makes us so close even though we are far apart? Is it the similar age and the teachings of our elders that make us have the same outlook?

I won’t go into it anymore. Welcome again, my cousins!
