Chapter 179: Having too much to eat
The little girl quickly ate a large bowl of vegetable soup, which made Aunt Zhang feel very distressed:
"What a sin, let the child starve.
��
"The key is that your cooking skills are good, aunt." Xu Dong deliberately interrupted. In fact, children in China also have a good appetite.
Who doesn’t like seafood and vegetable soup?
"The people above are really serious. Those Southern Dynasty people are poor people. Why can't we give them some rations? They are not freeloaders." Aunt Zhang was still nagging.
Xu Dong tried to explain: "Auntie, the country also has difficulties. If these illegal immigrants are given food cards, refugees from other countries will definitely go crazy if they find out about it, and it will be difficult to deal with it."
"Your aunt doesn't know anything about women's kindness." Uncle Zhang was tough for a rare moment.
"Yes, you are so capable, why doesn't the country ask you to be a big leader?" Aunt Zhang said sarcastically.
"you……"
Seeing that the old couple were getting more and more quarrelsome, Xu Dong quickly interjected: "Auntie, what is this child's name?"
"Baby, tell grandma, what's your name?" Aunt Zhang asked kindly.
Maybe it was because she had just eaten something delicious. The little girl trusted Aunt Zhang very much and replied softly:
"My name is Zhang Enya, I am six years old this year."
"Xiao Xu, old man, this child can speak our Daxia dialect." Aunt Zhang said excitedly.
Xu Dong smiled and said: "What a fate. My surname is Zhang. I don't need to change my surname. Congratulations, uncle and aunt."
Uncle Zhang finally showed a smile on his face.
Zhang Enya suddenly took Aunt Zhang's hand and asked: "Grandma, have you seen my mother?"
Aunt Zhang looked away. She despised this kind of separation between life and death the most in her life.
"Kid, your mother has gone to a place far, far away. Can you live with your grandparents from now on?" Xu Dong knelt down and coaxed.
"No, I want my mother. My mother will not die." Zhang Enya burst into tears immediately.
Xu Dong was a little embarrassed. Are all children today so mature? They even know this kind of thing.
"Okay, your mother is not dead, she just returned to China beforehand. Before she left, please ask us to take care of you." Aunt Zhang comforted her quickly.
"Kid, where is your father?" Xu Dong planned to change the subject.
"Sobbing... Mom said dad... went to a far away place, but I know... dad is dead. When he was working in the factory, he was hit on the head by... a big iron block, and he bled a lot."
"Uh, little baby, tell grandma, who told you this?" Aunt Zhang suppressed her anger.
"I saw it myself. My father took me to work in the factory every day. There were many uncles there."
"What about your mother? Why didn't she take you with her?" Xu Dong took the opportunity to ask.
Child Zhang Enya replied: "My mother has to sleep during the day and she has to go out to work at night. I don't like my mother going to work. She doesn't have time to teach me how to read."
Xu Dong touched the little guy's scalp. He could probably imagine what kind of life this family of three lived.
They are all miserable people!
"Enya, you can still read. Can you write your own name?" Aunt Zhang said in surprise.
"I can write. My mother said that after I learn a hundred Chinese characters, she will send me to school." Zhang Enya, a child, nodded seriously.
Aunt Zhang felt even more distressed: "Go home with grandma, and grandma will send you to school tomorrow, okay?"
Zhang Enya hesitated for a while and didn't speak.
"Grandma also makes delicious food for you every day."
"Then... can I eat enough? I have a small appetite, so just a small piece of bread is enough." Zhang Enya, a child, looked full of longing.
"Yes, of course I can, you can eat as much as you want." Aunt Zhang said seductively.
"Thank you grandma."
"Well, what a good boy."
Finally, under the temptation of a full meal, Zhang Enya's child agreed to go home with Aunt Zhang and officially recognized the couple as his grandparents.
However, the little guy was still very weak, so Aunt Zhang simply became a chaperone and stayed in the hospital.
Xu Dong immediately reported the good news to Director Ji. Director Ji sighed and hung up the call.
It’s so baffling!
…
I slept for three or four hours in the afternoon.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Xu Dong got up and ate the dinner reserved by Aunt Zhang. The old man and his wife were not at home, so they should be at the hospital.
After eating, he tidied up and went to work with two packs of cigarettes.
After completing the handover and patrolling along the coastline, Xu Dong wandered over to Lao Qin again.
"Old Qin, take the cigarette."
Xu Dong threw away a pack of cigarettes. As for the other young people, they had long since given up smoking, and he didn't want to make a mistake.
"Oh, so generous." Lao Qin said in surprise.
"Is there any news today?" Xu Dong asked with a smile.
Lao Qin lit a cigarette, nodded and said: "There are no big revelations, but there is a small one."
"Tell me quickly." Xu Dong couldn't wait.
"I'll send you some photos, you can see for yourself!" After saying that, Lao Qin took out his mobile phone and sent a set of photos to Xu Dong.
Xu Dong looked at it with interest. It didn't matter what he saw. It almost made him angry.
It turns out that these photos were all taken during street walks, and the event also had a loud slogan called:
Today we are all from the Southern Dynasties!
These protesters had no idea where they got the photos.
There are beaches full of that stuff; there are dark-skinned people; there are dirty dormitories that never see the sun; there are skinny little girls with very big eyes.
These protesters have three major demands: one is to issue green cards to all illegal immigrants; the second is to improve living conditions; and the third is equal pay for equal work.
Xu Dong sneered: "These people are mentally ill. I think they are just full and have nothing to do. If they have this energy, they might as well go to the welfare home to be volunteers. It's better than this!"
"Oh, don't be angry. After all, these people are a minority, and the higher-ups don't take them seriously." Lao Qin blew a smoke ring.
"Isn't the city under martial law? How did they get out?" Xu Dong asked curiously.
"Even under martial law, they still have to come out to buy food. Can it be delivered to their homes? As long as they want to come out, there are plenty of opportunities."
Skip this topic.
Xu Dong asked: "Is there no big move today?"
"No, the last incident had a very bad impact, and the higher-ups have to rearrange things to avoid similar loopholes and failure in the end."
"Will it affect our garrison time?" Xu Dong said worriedly.
Lao Qin waved his hand: "Don't think about it, there is already internal news circulating, and our support personnel will more or less delay their return time."
"TMD, it's really an unprovoked disaster." Xu Dong said angrily.
"There's nothing we can do about it. I heard that the situation in southern Xinjiang has been very serious recently. Staying in Qindao is much better than going to southern Xinjiang."
