My courtyard shelter

Chapter 192: Free Meals

At six o'clock in the evening, Lao Fang came back from get off work. Seeing Xu Dong waiting at the door, he immediately went up to greet him:

"Xiao Xu, are you done with your business trip?"

Xu Dong nodded and said, "It's over. I'll go back to work tomorrow."

Lao Fang opened the door and welcomed Xu Dong in, then poured a cup of water for the guest.

"Xiao Xu, why are you here today..."

Xu Dong took out a bag containing a sweater and handed it to the other party: "Xiao Han knitted a sweater for you and asked me to bring it to you. It's cold in the morning, so you must wear it when you go to work."

Lao Fang took the bag, took out the sweater and gestured to himself, laughing like a pervert.

It wasn't until Xu Dong coughed that the other party reacted and reluctantly put down the sweater.

"Xiao Xu, thank you."

"It's just a small favor, you're welcome! This time, in addition to giving you a sweater, I also want to take my batch of goods back. Is there anything wrong with the goods?"

Lao Fang shook his head: "No, I kept them in the second bedroom after I brought them back, and I didn't move them."

After that, Lao Fang took Xu Dong into the second bedroom.

There were three suitcases in the corner of the second bedroom. The suitcases were bought by Xu Dong. This thing can not only keep secrets, but also is convenient to carry.

Xu Dong stepped forward to take a look, and there was indeed no sign of damage.

"Lao Fang, thank you for troubling you this time."

"Look at what you said, we are not friends!" Lao Fang waved his hand.

Xu Dong nodded: "Then I won't be polite with you. Xiao Han's green card will probably be processed by the end of the month, and then you and your wife will be reunited."

"Great, there is finally a result." Lao Fang said with emotion.

"Wait for Xiao Han to come back, let her take care of herself first, and then hurry up to have a baby. Your house is worth tens of millions, don't let it be cheap to someone with a different surname." Xu Dong reminded.

"Xiao Xu, you have feudal ideas, how can you be more conservative than me? Don't worry, I know my limits."

"It's good that you understand. Besides, you are not young anymore, do everything within your ability, don't learn from the young, take it easy."

Lao Fang laughed and scolded: "You kid should get out of here quickly, I'm in good health, you don't need to worry about me."

After leaving Lao Fang's house, Xu Dong went straight back to the courtyard.

After entering the garage, he immediately made a video call to his wife.

"Husband, why did you call so early today?"

Xu Dong smiled and said nothing, "Guess where I am now?"

"You are not back, are you?" Yang Lina's mind turned quickly: "There was a sound in the garage just now, and mom ran out to see."

"Wife, you are so smart, I'm in the garage, tell mom not to open the door." Xu Dong said quickly.

Yang Lina got up and walked to the yard, calling her mother-in-law back.

Xu Ma took the phone: "Lao San, when did you come back?"

"I just got off the car, Mom, I bought some dried sea cucumbers in Qindao, you cook a dish tonight, and we'll have some meat together."

Xu Ma shook her head and said, "It's too late, it takes at least one or two days to soak the dried sea cucumbers, I'll make it in two days!"

Xu Dong was a little disappointed.

"Husband, you have eaten sea cucumbers before, why are you in such a hurry?" Yang Lina asked in confusion.

"Nothing, I just suddenly want to eat it."

In fact, in his previous life and this life, Xu Dong hasn't tasted the taste of sea cucumbers for almost twelve years. Usually, he doesn't see it and doesn't think about it.

Now that he has met it by chance, he is immediately tempted.

"How many dried sea cucumbers did you buy?" Xu Ma asked casually.

"A full 100 kilograms, there will be no problem eating it for one or two years." Xu Dong said with a smile.

Xu's mother was a little excited: "It cost a lot of money, right?"

"Fifty thousand yuan per pound, a total of five million yuan." Xu Dong answered truthfully.

"It's really expensive." Yang Lina frowned.

Xu's mother was very open-minded: "It's not a loss. Food is more valuable than money now. As long as you can buy food, it's a good thing."

"Mom, you are right. I will keep five pounds of dried sea cucumbers on top and put the rest in the basement."

"Okay, you can chat with Nana. I'll go cook two more dishes and give you a tonic in the evening. Look how thin you are." Xu's mother shook her head. Every time her son came back from a business trip, he would lose weight.

"Thank you, Mom!" Xu Dong said with a smile. His mother still understood him best.

After returning the phone to his daughter-in-law, Xu's mother left. She would make a fish fillet hot pot and stir-fry a dried chicken later. It should be about the same.

Yang Lina took the phone, "Honey, is your work going well on this business trip?"

Usually, Xu Dong rarely talked about work, mainly because the topic was too heavy, and it would only cause more troubles if he talked about it.

"It went well! I'm in the rear, and my work is very simple."

Xu Dong focused on introducing the process of buying sea cucumbers, and the rest was just a sentence. Finally, he took out two gift boxes.

"Wife, this red box is a gift for you, and this yellow box is for our mother, don't mix them up."

"What did you buy?" Yang Lina asked curiously.

Xu Dong smiled and said, "If I tell you, there will be no surprise, you can open it yourself!"

"Still playing mystery, you didn't forget the gifts for Coco and the others, did you? If your baby daughters make a fuss, I won't care."

"No, I bought the gifts, and I guarantee they will like them very much." Xu Dong said confidently.

Next, the couple chatted about family matters for more than half an hour, until Xu's mother finished the meal, and Xu Dong left with dinner.

Back in Sanhejiayuan Community, Xu Dong asked for the key and opened the door.

Lele was watching TV in the living room. When he heard the door open, he turned around and found that it was his father who came back. He immediately shouted:

"Wow, Grandpa...Sister, Dad is back."

After that, he rushed to his father.

Xu Dong quickly put down the lunch box, squatted down and hugged his little daughter with both hands. He hadn't seen her for more than half a month, and what he missed most was the children at home.

Keke soon ran over, and the father and daughter hugged each other. On Xu's side, he smiled and carried the lunch box to the kitchen.

"Dad, where is my gift?" Lele suddenly asked.

"The gift is in Dad's suitcase. Can I check it after dinner?"

It takes time to install the astronomical telescope. Xu Dong didn't want to delay dinner. He didn't eat much at noon and was hungry now!

"Okay..." Although they were a little reluctant, the twins still agreed sensibly.

Dad Xu was very fast. In less than ten minutes, the food was ready.

"It's time for dinner!"

"Dad will take you to wash your hands. Grandma made fried chicken tonight. It must be delicious."

When the twins heard that there was fried chicken, they immediately became active. The family hadn't eaten chicken for a long time, and they were tired of shrimp and fish.

Not long after dinner started, the doorbell rang.

Keke ran over to open the door.

Xu Dong asked curiously: "Who is it? Why is there someone coming at this time?"

Le Le rushed to answer:

"It must be Xiaoyun. Xiaoyun comes to visit our house every night."

As soon as the voice fell, Keke pulled Xiaoyun over, and the other party was holding a bowl of rice in his hand.

The little neighbor saw Xu Dong and immediately said: "Hello, uncle!"

Xu Dong smiled and nodded.

Dad Xu called Xiaoyun to him, then took the bowl of rice from the little girl, then picked up a lot of dishes for her, and finally poured a small bowl of fish soup.

"Thank you, grandpa!" The little girl took the bowl of rice happily.

Then, in less than three minutes, Xiaoyun ate all the food in the bowl, and then left with the empty bowl.

"Dad, this is..."

Dad Xu waved his hand and said, "I like Xiaoyun very much. Besides, just eat some. Our family doesn't lack this."

"Dad, I don't mean that. I'm afraid that people in the community will gossip. After all, everyone's life is very difficult now. Who can eat as much as we do?" Xu Dong explained with a wry smile.

"Don't worry, I told Xiaoyun not to tell others. You also saw that this child is very sensible. She only went home after eating. I guess her parents don't know."

Xu Dong was relieved. In July, they can move back. It doesn't make sense to say anything later.
