Wei's mother said, "Dani and Erni's schools are affected by the movement, so we take a break for ten days or half a month and come to visit you."
Liu Taohua quickly put down what she was holding and looked at the half-full basin of chopped bones, saying, "Why did you buy so many bones? It would be better if you ate them at home."
Wei's mother said, "I didn't buy it. The cow was slaughtered at Dahu Canteen and delivered by Aiguo."
As he spoke, he added water, put the lid on, and added some charcoal. Liu Taohua quickly went over to take it and said, "I'll do it. Where are Aiguo and the others?"

Liu Taohua blanched the bones and then put them all in the pot, along with scallions, ginger, star anise, and a full pot of water. She then covered the pot and left it to simmer for a while.

Liu Taohua happily exclaimed, "This is patriotism! She's so good with words, it's endearing!"
The family chatted and laughed, passing the time with exceptional joy. Knowing that Zhao Dahu and Wei Shuqing were coming, they brought a box of canned meat and candy. They chatted for a while before picking up Zhao Aiguo.
