Last night the Li family was in high spirits, and the whole family drank till they were drunk. Old Li played a drinking contest with his sons, and they drank until their tongues were tied.

Li Guifang couldn't persuade him any more, so she drank two cups herself, and finally went to bed without even clearing the dishes.

Even the rooster that usually crows first was squatting at the foot of the wall with a droopy head.

The drunken stupor wasn't a big deal; the next day, he slept until the sun was high in the sky. The glaring sunlight shone through the window lattice, directly onto Li Jianghai's face. The old man jerked awake, squinting at the clock—it was twenty past nine!

The consequence of being drunk was that everyone slept until noon the next day.

Even the rooster that usually crows first hangs its head, unwilling to disturb the tranquility of the yard.

When the bright sunlight shone directly on Li Jianghai's face through the window.

The old man sat up with a start, squinted his eyes, and glanced at the electronic watch on the table - nine twenty!

"Oh my god!" Li Jianghai howled, and the dogs in the next yard also howled.

"Old woman! Wake up! What time is it!"

Li Guifang was dreaming of counting money when she heard the yelling. She picked up a pillow and threw it at him, "Screaming!"

She opened her eyes drowsily, and when she saw the sky clearly, she suddenly sat up with a somersault, "Oh no! Oh no! Why is it so late?"

The commotion in the main house woke up everyone in the other houses.

The yard suddenly became chaotic, with chickens and dogs running around, and it was very lively.

After a while, a loud "bang" was heard outside.

Li Mingyuan was seen pushing his bicycle out with his shirt buttons untied, a wrinkled tie hanging on the handlebars.

After everyone left the yard, the voice came back, "I have a meeting this morning, I'm leaving first!"

Li Jianghai turned his head and saw the crumpled briefcase on the chair. He stamped his feet anxiously: "Mingyuan! Your bag!"

"Oh my god!" He grabbed the bag and ran out in his slippers!

"You bastard! The wallet is still in there!" Li Jianghai ran wildly on the road, and the few strands of hair he had were combed to the back of his head by the morning breeze.

Rushing out of the alley, Li Mingyuan still didn't hear his old father's shouts, and the pedals were almost smoking from his rotation!

"This wasteful thing!" Old Li ran back cursing, and limped onto his 28-inch bicycle, which made noise everywhere except the bell, to chase after it.

Do you think Li Mingyuan is the only one who is nonsensical?

Li Minghua's room is not much better!

Li Minghua, with a messy hair, ran out, with half of his face covered with shaving cream that had not been wiped off.

He ran out yelling, "Wife! Where's my toolbox? Manager Liu said I went to his factory to inspect it this morning!"

Wu Xiaomei hurriedly stuffed steamed buns into her cloth bag: "The toolbox is not in..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw Li Minghua had already rushed out of the courtyard gate. He had no choice but to grab two steamed buns and the toolbox and chase after him: "Wait a minute! I didn't bring the wrench!"

I didn't think about it, as I got up late, how come there were hot steamed buns on the dinner table.

Li Guifang came out rubbing her eyes, her hair a mess. She was in the main room for a long time before she regained her composure, washed her face, and went out.

When Li Mingli came back from sending the kids to school and ran into Li Guifang who was walking out in a daze at the entrance of the alley, she suddenly felt relieved!

Forget it, at least I don’t have to wake up my mom.

Who in the family doesn't know about Li Guifang's morning grumpiness? Last year, Aunt Wang came to borrow soy sauce early in the morning, and her mother swung a broom and beat her out of the yard!

"Mom, please walk slowly." Li Mingli stepped forward to support the staggering Li Guifang, and turned back her collar, which had tilted to the back of her head. "Duoduo and the others have gone to school, and Guifangzhai is open. Don't worry."

Only then did Li Guifang notice her daughter's sunburned cheeks and sweaty bangs.

Instantly, she felt guilty. She opened her mouth and took out a crumpled paper bag from her pocket: "Daughter, Mom bought you..."

When I opened it, I found that the sugar had melted. It was even more embarrassing.

Li Mingli, on the other hand, was so adorable seeing Li Guifang doing this that she burst out laughing.

She took the candy wrapper, stuffed the sticky candy into her mouth, and squinted her eyes in the sweetness: "Mom, you go to work first, I still have to go home to review!"

When Li Mingli returned home, she was stunned by the unusually quiet yard!

Where's the nutritious breakfast you promised? She stood in the yard, looking at the mess left after the chaos, speechless! The scene of her good father patting his chest and promising last night was still vivid in her mind.

"My dear, don't worry about anything these days!" Li Jianghai was so drunk that his face turned red and he slammed the table. "Your mother makes fish soup for you every day, and your father buys walnuts for your brain!"

But this morning, when she woke up, she found the stove was cold and there was not even a fire.

She sighed, rolled up her sleeves and started washing rice.

Before she put the rice into the pot, she heard the noise of a few carrot heads outside. Shuhang was brushing his teeth and washing his face with his younger brother and sister.

"Auntie!" Duoduo, with her frizzy pigtails, leaned against the door frame. "Are you taking us to school today?"

An Yuan followed barefoot, tears still dripping down his cheeks: "Auntie, my stomach is rumbling..."

Four little kids crowded into the kitchen, their six eyes staring at the empty stove.

"It'll be ready soon." Li Mingli quickly lit the fire and added the eggs to the hot oil with a sizzling sound. "How about having gold ingots and white jade porridge today?"

Five little heads immediately gathered in a circle, eagerly watching the poached eggs flipping in the pan. The youngest, An Yang, counted on his fingers: "One, two... Auntie, I want sunny-side-up eggs!"

When the golden fried eggs and hot porridge were served, the little ones immediately started eating.

Duoduo secretly hid the egg yolk into Anyuan's bowl. Shuhang stuck out his tongue while drinking the porridge because it was so hot. However, the youngest Anyang ate the most obediently.

Li Mingli looked at the clock and urged: "Eat quickly, you're going to be late!"

After she packed up the five little ancestors and took them out, the yard was still quiet!

When she finished cleaning up the dishes from last night, she looked up at the clock and saw it was almost eleven o'clock.

She returned to her room and took out the review materials from her schoolbag.

The sunlight shone through the windowsill onto the desk. Li Mingli took a deep breath and began to recite English words.

The hawkers' cries in the alleys in the distance mixed with the chirping of cicadas in the trees, forming the best white noise.

This chaotic morning finally returned to peace with the sound of reading aloud.
