My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 223

August 8, Saturday, after 26 am.

Xu Dong brought Ke Ke and his elder nephew to the station to pick them up. It's been a long time since we saw each other, and I don't know if little Enya has gained weight.

At 9:48, the train arrived on time.

Xu Dong took the three little guys to pick up the people smoothly. Only Aunt Zhang and Zhang Enya came, and Uncle Zhang did not come.

Zhang Enya is wearing a dress and a pink hat, looking like a little princess.

"Uncle Xu..." Little Enya felt shy after not seeing her for several months.

Xu Dong stepped forward and picked him up, weighed him casually, and said with relief: "Well, it really has grown heavier, uncle, don't worry."

When she was just discharged from the hospital, Zhang Enya weighed only [-] kilograms, and she was as thin as a radish head. Now her arms and calves are full of flesh.

"Uncle Xu, I now have to eat two bowls of rice every meal." Zhang Enya said happily.

Lele was surprised at the side and said: "Sister Enya, you are so amazing! I can only eat one bowl of rice at a time, and I can't eat any more, but my cousin is as good as you, he can eat every meal Two bowls of rice."

Zhang Enya asked Uncle Xu to let him down, and then walked in front of the Keke sisters.

"Sister Coco, Sister Lele, hello!"

Coco took little Enya's hand and said generously: "Sister Enya, hello, let me introduce you, this is my cousin, we all call him Brother Xiaoxu."

"Brother Xiaoxu, hello!"

Ma Xu glanced at little Enya, and felt that this younger sister was so obedient and gentle, much cuter than Keke and Lele, unlike her cousins ​​who knew how to bully him every day.

So he said from the bottom of his heart: "Sister Enya, you are so cute!"

The children got to know each other, Xu Dong asked Aunt Zhang:
"Auntie, why didn't uncle come?"

"Your uncle can't leave. The school is expanding, and he has to be on duty every day." Aunt Zhang explained.

"Oh, it's a pity, I have all the wine ready, and I'm just waiting for uncle to come over, why don't I have time!" Xu Dong sighed.

"Next time, there must be a chance." Aunt Zhang smiled.

"That's right." Xu Dong nodded, "Auntie, my house has been tidied up, you and Enya can stay at my house for a few days!"

Aunt Zhang quickly waved her hand: "Xiao Xu, we just need to stay in a hotel, and I won't go to your house."

These days, accommodation is okay, but eating is definitely a big problem. The grandparents and grandchildren came here this time, and they even brought their own rations. This is a matter of principle.

Xu Dong persuaded her for a long time, but Aunt Zhang disagreed, and she insisted on staying in a hotel, otherwise she would go back to Qindao.

Persuasion was useless, so Xu Dong had to drive them to a hotel near his home.

Since the housing reform, 100% ownership of these hotels belongs to the state.

However, the upper management has limited energy, so they can only recontract the hotel to private management. There are probably tens of thousands of similar hotels and hotels in Yanjing.

In addition, there are also some family hotels and homestays, but the scale is generally small, usually only a few rooms, and dragons and snakes are mixed, which is not very safe.

When he came to the front desk, Xu Dong said directly:
"Boss, open a double room."

Aunt Zhang quickly persuaded: "Xiao Xu, a single room is fine, Enya is still young, just sleep with me in the same bed."

"Okay, then a single room."

"Single room is 288 yuan a night, how many nights do you want to stay?" asked the receptionist.

"Stay for two nights." Aunt Zhang hurriedly replied, next Monday Xiaoxu will have to go to work, which is also the time they leave.

Xu Dong frowned and said, "Auntie, why don't you stay a few more days? I can ask for two days off."

"No need, this time I came here mainly to show Enya to see you, two days is enough." Aunt Zhang insisted.

After the room was opened, Xu Dong helped Aunt Zhang move the luggage into the room. There were not many things, only two big ones, one small three bags, and I didn't know what was inside.

After placing the luggage, Xu Dong said again:

"Auntie, come to my house for lunch at noon, you won't refuse this time, will you?"

Aunt Zhang smiled and shook her head: "I don't refuse, I just want to meet your parents too!"

……

Ten minutes later, the group finally returned to the courtyard.

Coco took Enya's hand and said with a smile, "Enya, this is my home, you are welcome to visit my home."

"Wow, Sister Keke, your family is so big!" Zhang Enya exclaimed.

Lele proudly said: "This is the house my father bought, and it is bigger than the previous home."

"Uncle Xu is amazing!" Zhang Enya adored her face.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

Lele stepped forward and grabbed Mark: "Mark, stop barking, sister Enya is not a bad person."

Mark yelled a few times before lying on the ground again. The temperature was high during the day, but the ground was still cool.

"Sister Enya, don't be afraid, Mark doesn't bite people." Looking at Enya who was shivering, Ke Ke quickly comforted her.

When Mama Xu saw the guest coming in, she hurried forward to say hello. It might be because of the same surname.

Welcoming him into the living room, Ke Ke and the others dragged Enya upstairs, while the adults chatted in the living room.

Aunt Zhang took out the bag she carried with her: "Big sister, we don't have any good things on Qindao, so I brought you some small dried fish. Don't dislike it!"

To be honest, she really didn't expect that Xiao Xu lived in a courtyard house at home, and he was far richer than imagined.

Since Xiao Xu left, he would send some food to their family every month, mainly dried shrimp and dried vegetables. As the saying goes, reciprocate, and the dried fish is specially used to give back to the other party.

It took her a lot of effort to get these small dried fishes together, a total of three catties and four taels, most of which were bought from fishermen, and a small part was picked up by the old couple when they were fishing.

Mama Xu quickly took the bag, flipped through the dried fish with her hands, and sniffed the smell:
"Good thing, old sister, you are so kind."

"Yeah, although Yanjing is the capital city, there is no meat on the market at all. If these small dried fish are put on the market, customers will be sure to grab their heads." Yang Lina echoed.

As an ordinary person, it is really rare to be able to get these small dried fish. From this, we can also see that it is indeed reasonable to rely on the sea to eat the sea.

"If you like it, I will save some for you in the future." Aunt Zhang is very useful in her heart, and she feels very sorry for always taking advantage of Xiao Xu.

"Auntie, I like eating small dried fish very much, so I will trouble you more in the future." Xu Dong said deliberately, it's good to have exchanges like this.

Yang Lina glanced at her husband meaningfully, and said that she helped send those packages. Although there were not many things, they were much more valuable than dried fish.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
