My courtyard shelter

"Mom, let's have hot pot tonight? This fish is very tender, and it's perfect for hot pot. Reading" Ma Lingling suddenly suggested.

"Okay, your dad is at home." Xu Ting agreed.

Ma Lingling was surprised and said, "When did Dad come back?"

"He came back last night. Your dad has lost a lot of weight. Give him a good supplement tonight." Xu Ting said distressed.

The construction period of the Yanjin subway project is very tight. Ma Jie basically lives and eats at the construction site. It's hard not to lose weight.

"Mom, since Dad is at home, we will go back first and won't wait for you to get off work."

"Go back, put the fish in the refrigerator quickly, don't let it get smelly." Xu Ting reminded.

Ma Lingling rolled her eyes: "Mom, you don't need to tell me, I'm not a child."

"Okay, I'll take you two out."

Xu Ting, who had just sent the children away, was pulled aside by Sister Lu as soon as she came back.

"Sister Lu, what's up?"

"Old Xu, I just saw that you still have eggs in your bag, can you share two with me? My husband Qin has caught a bad cold recently, and I want to make him dumplings with celery and egg filling." Sister Lu said embarrassedly.

Xu Ting hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Okay, I'll bring two eggs tomorrow."

If it were an ordinary person, Xu Ting would have refused long ago, but Sister Lu has always taken good care of her as a newcomer, so she couldn't say no.

"Thank you, sister, how much is the egg? I'll transfer the money to you right away." Sister Lu was so excited.

Xu Ting waved her hands quickly. She was not stupid. Two eggs were only a few hundred yuan at most. How could favors be worth money!

Unfortunately, Sister Lu's husband was in poor health to begin with, and he died at noon the next day because of a sudden deterioration of his condition.

After all, they didn't get to eat this dumpling.

...

Two days later, the twins caught a cold at the same time.

Xu Dong had already prepared himself mentally for this. School is not like other places. Unless classes are suspended, it will be a matter of time.

In the previous life, the Coco sisters, like most of their classmates, also experienced this, but the ending was not bad, they recovered after two days of fever.

As soon as the two fell ill, Xu Dong asked for a week's leave from the class teacher, Teacher Ding, so that the sisters could stay at home to recuperate.

In order to take care of Coco and Lele, Xu's father did not go to the company and stayed at home with his granddaughters.

"Grandpa, I want to eat canned food." Lele said coquettishly while lying on the bed.

Xu's father took out his mobile phone: "Call your dad yourself!"

Lele immediately made a video call to his father. Xu Dong thought something had happened and answered the call immediately.

"Dad, Dad, I miss you."

Looking at the little cotton-padded jacket who was in good spirits, Xu Dong secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Dad misses you too, Lele, what's the matter with you calling Dad?"

"Dad, I feel so bad!"

"Colds are like this, just bear with it for two days." Xu Dong comforted, and then immediately changed the subject: "Did you and your sister take medicine on time at noon?"

"Yes, grandpa also took our temperature."

"What's your temperature?" Xu Dong asked casually.

Lele picked up a small notebook next to him, flipped through a few pages and answered: "Mine is 3 degrees, and my sister's is 5 degrees."

"Look, my sister took medicine and slept well, and her cold is almost healed. You should learn from your sister, don't you know?"

"I know, Dad, I want to eat canned food." The little fox finally showed its tail.

"Okay, Dad will come back to bring it to you in the evening. What canned food do you want to eat?"

"I want canned pears."

Keke heard this and ran over with a quilt, "Dad, I want canned food too. I want canned yellow peaches."

"Okay, one bottle of canned pears and one bottle of canned yellow peaches. Dad will remember it." Xu Dong nodded.

"Dad, there is also grandpa." Lele reminded.

Dad Xu touched his granddaughter's scalp and said with a look of relief: "Grandpa doesn't like canned food. You two can eat it by yourselves."

"Okay then!"

"Listen to grandpa at home, do you know?" Xu Dong finally instructed.

"Yeah, I know."

After talking to his father, Lele called his mother again.

"Mom, I miss you." The beginning is the same routine.

Yang Lina is holding Xiaobao in her arms, and Xu's mother is sitting next to her. Several people are watching TV.

"Is the cold better? Do you still have a fever?"

Dad Xu helped answer: "Much better than yesterday. They both ate a full bowl of rice at noon. They will be fine in two more days."

"Old man, you should also pay attention to yourself. Lao Liu from our dance troupe passed away yesterday. Don't take it lightly." Mom Xu suddenly interrupted.

"Don't worry, I'm in good health, nothing's wrong." Dad Xu smiled and nodded.

"Grandma, where is Aunt Liu?" Lele couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I don't know where she went, anyway, it's very far away." Mom Xu said perfunctorily.

Lele didn't ask about it any further, and then talked about canned food: "Grandma, I want to eat canned food, Grandpa and Dad both agreed."

"You are just a little greedy cat, grandma will help you get it later, remember to eat less, it's too cold."

"Thank you grandma, you are the best."

Mother Xu smiled and called Dabao and Erbao to her:

"Dabao, Erbao, come and say hello to your sister."

Because Lele was wearing a mask, Dabao took a while to recognize her: "Sister...sister..."

"Haha, Dabao is so good, do you miss your sister?" Lele asked with a smile.

Dabao shook his head first, then nodded, and no one knew what it meant.

Erbao spoke up: "I miss..."

"Okay, Erbao is the best."

"Dabao is a good baby." Dabao echoed.

Xu Ma smiled and said: "Dabao, Erbao, and our Xiaobao, you three are grandma's good babies."

"Grandma is partial, I am also a good baby." Lele said funny.

"Oh my, you are so old, and you are still a good baby. Grandma's stomach is almost hurt by you." Xu Ma laughed out of breath.

After a while of making a fuss, the phone returned to Yang Lina's hand, "Lele, and Keke, if you two feel uncomfortable, you must tell grandpa in time, do you know?"

Keke and his sister nodded at the same time.

"Mom, when can we come back?" Lele took the opportunity to ask.

"Didn't your dad say that he would be back in the summer vacation? Mom will make delicious food for you every day." Yang Lina comforted.

"I want to eat ice cream." Keke rushed to say.

"Okay, Mom will make it for you. Make a big bucket and put it in the refrigerator to eat slowly."

Yang Lina followed the teaching video and learned to make ice cream several times before. The children liked it very much.

But later, she was afraid that the twins would have diarrhea if they ate too much, so she made less.

"Long live Mom!" Lele said excitedly, wishing that the summer vacation would start tomorrow.
