My Courtyard Refuge

: Spring Outing

After leaving the door of the roast mouse shop, Xu Ting pulled her brother and asked:

“Dongzi, is what you said about raising mice just now true or just a joke?”

“Building a breeding farm requires investment of real money. How can such a thing be joked? Of course it is true.” Xu Dong replied solemnly.

“Can raising mice make money?” Xu Ting expressed doubts.

Xu Dong looked mysterious: “Not only can you make money, but if you do well, you might even become the richest man in the country!”

In the previous life, from the next year, the breeding industry almost monopolized the throne of the richest man in Daxia, and most of these breeding industries were engaged in meat rat breeding.

“It’s true.” Xu Ting rolled her eyes.

“Sister, if you don’t believe me, I can lend you money to open a rat farm. You just haven’t got a job yet. Do you want to come out and be your own boss?”

The investment in the rat farm is not much, and the typical capital is small and the profit is huge. Xu Dong is still willing to contribute to his sister.

Xu Ting quickly shook her head: “Forget it, sister doesn’t have this ability, and it’s not easy for you to make money. Don’t treat money as money.”

Ma Jie is eager to try it out. The fact that his father-in-law started a company still stimulates him a lot.

But when he thought about his family’s situation, especially his pair of children, he immediately dismissed this idea.

Xu Dong didn’t care, and started the car without any hesitation. After more than ten minutes, he finally arrived home.

Mama Xu came forward with Xiao Bao in her arms: “Why did you come back so soon, the house has been bought?”

“Mom, I sent you a picture of the house, didn’t you receive it?” Xu Ting asked in surprise.

“Little Treasure had a fever in the morning, so I took him to the hospital in the morning, so I don’t have time to look at my phone!” Mama Xu explained.

As soon as Xu Dong heard that his youngest son had a fever, he immediately touched Xiaobao’s forehead, and then asked:

“Is it serious, what did the doctor say?”

“It’s okay, it’s just a small cold. After taking the medicine, the fever has subsided, but I have to be hugged before I can sleep, and I cry when I let go.” Mama Xu had a distressed look on her face.

“The temperature difference between morning and evening is big now, and it’s the most likely time to catch a cold. Xiao Xu also caught a cold last week, just a few days ago.” Xu Ting worried.

“Where are Da Bao and Er Bao?”

“Nana took the two of them on the second floor, so as not to be infected.” Madam Xu replied.

“Mom, let me hug you for a while, you go and have a rest.” After Xu Dong finished speaking, he took the youngest son from his mother’s arms.

Madam Xu took the opportunity to rub her arms: “Have you had lunch yet, shall I order some noodles for you?”

“Mom, no need, we ate outside.” Xu Ting quickly stopped.

Next, Xu Ting and his wife accompanied Madam Xu into the room, and they were supposed to discuss the new house and return the bank card.

As for Xu Dong, he simply carried Xiao Bao into the vegetable garden.

“Chirp chirp… chirp chirp…” Canary’s cry was clear and sweet.

Hearing the sound of birdsong, Xu Dong felt a lot more relaxed, then came to the reclining chair, and lay down gently, while Xiao Bao lay on his chest.

The reclining chairs were made by Dad Xu in his free time after dinner. There were two types of deck chairs in total. They were made of logs and had no paint.Under the parasol, one side is the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, and the other side is the warmth of father and son, which is indescribably comfortable.

…

Early the next morning, Xu Dong personally sent the elder sister and his wife to the high-speed rail station.

“Sister, brother-in-law, move here as soon as you’re done with the matter. If you can’t, live with me first, and you can move there after the house is handed over at Langfang.”

The thing about Xiaobao’s cold yesterday made him suddenly recall the first wave of flu in his previous life, which seemed to have started in early March.

At that time, travel will be strictly restricted across the country, and it will not be truly lifted until the middle of the year.

“You said this yourself, can we take it seriously?” Xu Ting laughed.

“Your family, just come, the policy is changing now, it’s better to implement it as soon as possible, and I will help you to urge the new house.”

“Well, actually, your brother-in-law and I also want to come here soon.” Xu Ting nodded.

“Then act quickly, don’t talk about small things, let go if you can.” Xu Dong reminded.

He is too clear about the character of the old lady, and he likes to care about everything.

Xu Ting saw that the time was almost up, and finally said goodbye: “Okay, we’re going into the station, drive slowly when you go back.”

“When you arrive in Luyang, remember to call Mom.”

Xu Ting waved her hand to show that she knew.

When I got home, Yang Lina was packing the luggage for the Keke sisters. The twins were going to go for a spring outing in the afternoon.

In Yanjing in February, the daytime is not too hot, which is a good time for spring outing.

Affected by the big flare last year, the school was closed for a long time, so the spring and autumn outings were naturally cancelled.

Speaking of which, this is the first time for the twins to participate in the school’s outdoor group activities, and both of them are extremely excited.

===Section 93===

Xu Dong watched for a while, and couldn’t help interjecting:

“Don’t bring a quilt, it’s too troublesome to have a quilt and a quilt, just bring a sleeping bag, I remember it’s in the warehouse.”

This spring outing is mainly to visit the seawater desalination plant in Jinmen, starting on Sunday afternoon and coming back on Tuesday afternoon, a total of two days and two nights.

“My teacher has rules about what to bring, so don’t come up with random ideas, okay?” Yang Lina said angrily.

“It’s really stupid. Could it be that the sleeping bag can’t sleep?” Xu Dong was a little speechless.

Yang Lina raised her head and stared at her husband: “Who do you think is a fool?”

“No… I didn’t talk about you, I was talking about Teacher Keke and the others.” Xu Dong quickly explained.

“Dad, you can’t speak ill of our teacher behind his back.” Coco pulled his father’s sleeve and reminded him in a low voice.

“Okay, Dad is wrong, Dad won’t say anything.” Xu Dong quickly admitted his mistake because he couldn’t teach children badly.

Lele took the opportunity to act coquettishly and said, “Dad, can I bring a pack of beef jerky? It can be eaten as a snack on the way.”

Before Xu Dong could answer, Yang Lina flatly refused:

“Don’t even think about it, do you want to show off in front of your classmates again? How many times have you told me that snacks can only be eaten at home and are not allowed to be brought to school.”

“Lele, tell Dad the truth…”

Xu Dong frowned and looked at his little daughter.

It is normal for children to love comparisons, but in today’s general environment, it seems a bit out of date and needs to be corrected in time.

Lele pouted and said nothing.

Xu Dong then looked at the eldest daughter: “Ke Ke, you are the older sister. If the younger sister does something wrong, you should help her correct it.”

Ke Ke honestly told everything about it. It turned out that there was a classmate in their class who had a rich family and often brought delicious food to school. The classmates liked to play with her.

Lele was cautious and high-minded, and the two began to compare without knowing it.

After hearing this, Xu Dong pulled Lele aside and talked about the truth for half an hour. He didn’t know if it was useful, but at least he stopped clamoring for snacks.
