My Courtyard Refuge

Nutrients

Halfway through the dinner, Section Chief Li talked about his marriage history:

“Xiao Xu, do you think that I like the new and dislike the old, and I will marry your aunt when I am so old next year?”

Xu Dong shook his head again and again: “How is it possible, Uncle Li, you and your aunt have such a good relationship, there is no age difference when it comes to love.”

No matter what you think in your heart, you should say this, otherwise you will offend people to death.

“Well said!” Section Chief Li picked up his teacup and touched Xu Dong, “You should have listened to Lao Gao and the others. I also have a daughter who is only two years younger than you.”

Xu Dong nodded. Section Chief Li’s daughter was named Ning Yuanyuan, and she was said to have taken her mother’s surname since birth.

“I’m not afraid of your jokes. I almost married into my ex-wife’s family back then. Their family conditions are good. I usually have no status at home…”

Xu Dong didn’t expect Section Chief Li to have such a bitter past.”After the divorce, I only wanted to have a child with my surname, a daughter or a son. At that time, your Aunt Li had just divorced, and we met through a blind date.”

“What happened later?” Xu Dong asked cooperatively.

“Of course I got married later, your aunt is very kind, she encouraged me all the time, and even accompanied me to the hospital for a checkup.

Fortunately, hard work paid off, and we finally had our own children.

Even if I die in the future, your aunt can still have someone to rely on, and it will not be in vain for our husband and wife. ”

Section Chief Li looked affectionate.

Xu Dong hurriedly persuaded: “Uncle Li, what nonsense are you talking about, you are in such a body that you can hold a grandson without any problem.”

“Haha, I think so, I’m afraid I won’t be able to wait until then!”

Both of them subconsciously ignored Ning Yuanyuan, mainly because the relationship between father and daughter was too bad.

After the meal, Section Chief Li dragged Xu Dong into the study.

“Uncle Li, what are you doing? It’s getting late, I should go back.” Xu Dong shrugged.

Section Chief Li smiled: “It won’t take much time. I have some good cigarettes and wine here. You can pick some and bring them back.”

“No need…”

“Why don’t you use it? I know the rules of Panjiayuan better than you. In this world, no real money is as good as tobacco and alcohol.”

In the end, at the insistence of Section Chief Li, Xu Dong took ten packs of famous cigarettes and five boxes of famous wine, as well as a large number of expensive supplements such as caterpillar fungus, shark fin, red ginseng and velvet antler.

By the way, that turbot was also taken away by Xu Dong.

For the sake of his wife and unborn child, Section Chief Li has definitely spent all his money this time.

…

When I got home, it was already eleven o’clock in the evening.

Xu’s mother and Xu’s father are too old to stay up all night and have already gone to bed. Only Yang Lina is still waiting for her husband in the living room.

Hearing the sound of the car, Yang Lina hurried to the garage and complained:

“Why so late?”

“I chatted with the old leader for a few more words, but I accidentally overdid it.” Xu Dong apologized.

“You didn’t find a substitute driver? Why are you so obedient this time, and you didn’t drink any alcohol?”

Xu Dong opened the trunk of the car, took things outside, and explained: “The old leader is going to be a father, and he can’t even drink if he wants to!”

“The Chief Li who cares about you?” Yang Lina’s eyes widened.

Xu Dong nodded: “Yes, in fact, his wife is not very old, only in her thirties.”

“Humph……”

“Okay, come and help me get the things, this time I got a lot of good things.”

Yang Lina glanced at the trunk and asked in surprise, “Where did these things come from?”

Xu Dong took the opportunity to explain Section Chief Li’s commission.

“You really dare to agree to anything. The wife of your section chief can’t touch any meat. Isn’t it so easy to solve?”

Yang Lina was speechless.

“I’ve thought about it on the way back, so you don’t have to worry.” Xu Dong assured with a smile.

“Look at you.” Yang Lina couldn’t help but rolled her eyes.

Xu Dong handed the bag containing the turbot to his wife: “Put this fish in the refrigerator quickly.”

“Why are there still fish?”

“The leader’s wife can’t eat, so we can only make it cheaper for our family.” Xu Dongyang said proudly.

“It’s really you…” Yang Lina couldn’t laugh or cry.

At noon the next day, Mama Xu cooked the turbot in braised sauce, and the whole family had a delicious meal.

During the vacation, Xu Dong was not idle either.

I made a few trips to Panjiayuan in the middle, sold all the food and drinks at home that were about to expire, and exchanged most of the truckload of dried seafood.

In the past two months, seafood on the market has not been easy to buy, and it is often hard to find, so I just took the opportunity to stock up on a batch of goods.

On the night of the third day, Xu Dong came to Section Chief Li’s house again at the agreed time with carefully prepared nutritional supplements.

Because there were too many things, the two went back and forth three times before moving everything up.

Looking at the cardboard boxes on the table, Xu Dong said:

“I don’t know which one my aunt likes, so I made some of each, try it first, and if it’s really useful, I’ll try to make more later.”

“You’re still thoughtful, Xiao Xu.” Section Chief Li praised.

Aunt Li opened the cardboard box in front of her casually, and said pleasantly, “Why are there still watermelons at this time?”

“It’s grown in a greenhouse.” Xu Dong said vaguely.

“Is it okay for pregnant women to eat watermelon?” Section Chief Li was a little worried.

Xu Dong quickly comforted: “No problem, I asked my wife, pregnant women can eat watermelon, but it’s best not to chill it, and don’t eat too much at once.”

“It’s good if you can eat it.” Aunt Li said happily.

Next, Xu Dong opened all the cartons and introduced them one by one:

“It’s honey. I’ve found someone to see it. It’s definitely real honey. When my aunt wants to vomit, you can try honey water to see if it works.”

Section Chief Li couldn’t help but nodded, honey is a good thing, and it seems that Xiao Xu really put his heart into it.

“This is donkey-hide gelatin jujube, which can make upRecharge energy, replenish qi and blood, and increase appetite, but also in moderation. ”

Aunt Li couldn’t wait to taste it, and fell in love with it immediately.

“This box is tomatoes, just picked from the greenhouse, the freshest, my aunt should like the sweet and sour taste.”

“This box is full of eggs. Eggs are the most nourishing, and you don’t have to worry about over nourishing.”

Aunt Li couldn’t help sighing: “Xiao Xu, you know so much!”

“My family has many children, and they were all forced out.” Xu Dong explained with a smile.

“Tell auntie, how many children are there in your family?” Aunt Li became interested.

Section Chief Li envied: “His family has five children, a pair of twin daughters, and a triplet, all sons.”

These were all discussed in the chat the day before yesterday.

“Xiao Xu, I don’t know what to say about the luck of your husband and wife.” Aunt Li said with emotion.

Xu Dong smiled and continued to introduce:

“This box is full of small snacks. My aunt can use them to pad her stomach when she has no appetite.”

“This box is chicken cake made by my wife. I don’t know if it suits my aunt’s taste?”

The egg cake was added by Yang Lina on her own initiative. Sometimes things made by herself are more touching. Yang Lina sees this more clearly.
