My courtyard shelter
Chapter 260: Learning to drive
At about six in the evening, Niu Niu's mother came to take Niu Niu home. Dabao secretly stuffed a big cucumber into Niu Niu's pocket. The cucumber was too long and half of it was sticking out. Read М
He picked it himself in the vegetable garden.
"Brother Dabao, goodbye!"
"Sister Niu Niu, come again tomorrow!"
"Yes!" Niu Niu nodded vigorously.
After seeing Niu Niu off, Xu's mother took her grandson to the kitchen. Xu's father came back early today, and dinner was about to start.
"Dabao, come here and let grandpa hug you." Seeing his grandson coming in, Xu's father smiled and opened his arms.
Dabao immediately threw himself into his grandfather's arms, and then climbed onto his grandfather's thighs, which was his favorite position.
"Grandpa, I'm going to sleep in the new room tonight."
"Well, our Dabao is a big kid now."
Yang Lina put the hot pot on the dining table, and then shouted to the door: "It's time to eat."
After a while, Ma Lingling brought a group of little ones to the restaurant. Everyone sat down according to their usual positions. Dabao also slipped out of his grandfather's arms and sat next to his mother obediently.
"Grandma, what's delicious tonight?" Lele asked impatiently.
"Grandma made your favorite braised sea cucumber." Xu's mother replied with a smile. Knowing that Ma Lingling's brother and sister were coming, the sea cucumber was soaked two days ago.
"Great!" The little ones cheered.
After a sumptuous dinner, the whole family sat in the living room watching TV. The children watched variety shows happily, and the adults chatted about family matters.
At eight o'clock, Xu's mother took the three brothers to take a bath. There was only a shallow layer of water in the bathtub. The three little guys took off their clothes and sat side by side at the bottom of the bathtub.
Xu Ma tested the water temperature, first poured a bucket of water on each of them, then began to apply soap all over their bodies, and finally rinsed them.
Rinse them clean, wipe dry, and wrap a bath towel around each of the triplets.
Yang Lina came in to help, and carried the three brothers to the bedroom one by one. The triplets were getting heavier and heavier, and Xu Ma could hardly hold them.
Back in the bedroom, with the help of grandma, the triplets changed into pajamas by themselves. Dabao, as the eldest brother, also helped the younger brothers button up.
Before going to bed, as usual, the triplets had to be told a bedtime story. In order to make it easier to listen to the story, Dabao and his three brothers all lay in the same quilt.
Xu Ma sat by the bed, without a fairy tale book in her hand, and she didn't know how to tell fairy tales. What she told were some folk anecdotes, which the triplets especially liked to listen to.
Half an hour later, the grandchildren fell asleep.
Mother Xu carried Dabao to the upper bunk, covered him with a quilt, and then separated Erbao and Xiaobao. The three brothers could not sleep together, as it was easy for them to pull each other's quilts.
At 10:30 p.m., Xu Dong finally came back from get off work. He first moved the rice into the warehouse, and then had some midnight snacks.
After washing up, he went to his sons' bedrooms to take a look. It was the first time for the three brothers to sleep in separate rooms today, and he didn't know if they could adapt.
"Mom, Dabao and the others didn't make a fuss tonight?"
"No, they were very well behaved and didn't recognize their beds at all."
Xu Dong patted his head: "Mom, I almost forgot to tell you something."
"What is it?" Mother Xu asked curiously.
"Last Double Eleven, I bought a gift for you. I received a notice in the afternoon that the express delivery will be delivered tomorrow. You can sign for it then."
"I know, what did you buy?"
"This is kept secret for the time being. Anyway, you will know tomorrow." Xu Dong smiled.
Xu's mother waved her hand: "Okay, it's almost twelve o'clock, go to bed!"
"Yes, sir!"
...
The next day, at ten o'clock in the morning, Xu's mother was picking vegetables in the yard, and there was a knock on the door.
Ma Lingling immediately ran over to open the door.
"Grandma, it's the courier who sent a big box."
Xu's mother remembered what her son said last night, and hurriedly stood up and walked towards the door.
After signing for it, the courier helped to transport the big box to the garage. There was a threshold at the door, so it couldn't be moved in at all.
After sending the courier away, the garage door was closed.
Ma Lingling asked curiously: "Grandma, what's in the box? Why is it so big?"
"Your uncle bought it and said it was for me. I don't know what's inside." Xu's mother replied.
Yang Lina smiled and persuaded: "Mom, since it's for you, let's open it and take a look?"
"Grandma, I want to see it!" Lele said on the side.
Children are very curious.
"Yes, grandma, we all want to know what's inside." Ma Lingling agreed.
Xu's mother smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's take it apart and see."
"Grandma, I'll get the scissors." Ke Ke ran to the kitchen quickly after saying that.
Five minutes later, the cardboard box was finally almost taken apart.
Ma Xu shouted: "Grandma, your uncle bought you a car."
"What a waste of money, I'm so old, how can I drive?" Xu's mother complained, but she was very happy in her heart.
"Mom, this is an old scooter, originally for people of your age, and you don't need a driver's license at all. There were many such cars in our community before." Yang Lina helped introduce.
"Hey, now that you mention it, I seem to remember that this thing is good for going out to buy groceries." Xu's mother nodded.
"Yes, mom, with this car, it will be much more convenient for you to pick up Dabao and others in the future. At least you don't have to worry about sandstorms and cold winds."
Mother Xu's eyes lit up: "This is great. Every time I send Dabao and the others to kindergarten, the three of them end up covered in dust."
"Grandma, drive, woooo woooo..."
The triplets were very excited to see the car. Boys like these things anyway.
"Grandma, why don't we try this car now?" Ma Lingling suggested.
"This needs to be charged, right?"
Ma Lingling found the charger: "Let's start charging now, and we can test the car in the afternoon."
"Okay, then test the car in the afternoon." Mother Xu nodded with satisfaction.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the battery was finally fully charged.
The yard was small, and it was too dangerous to test the car. Several people pushed the car to the sidewalk beside the road. In the afternoon, there were few pedestrians on the street.
The air outside was choking, and everyone wore masks.
"Lingling, why don't you come first, and when you learn it, teach your grandmother." Yang Lina suggested. After all, her mother-in-law had never driven a car, so she would avoid accidents.
"Okay." Ma Lingling agreed immediately.
Next, she took the manual and fumbled around for more than ten minutes, almost figuring out all the functions, and then it was time for a test drive.
Because the car was going very slowly, Ma Lingling learned it quickly, driving the car alone, going back and forth on the sidewalk several times.
"Grandma, I've learned it. You sit next to me and I'll teach you how to drive. It's very simple."
Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "It's good to be simple. Grandma is old and can't remember things that are too complicated."
"Grandma, I want to get in the car too." Dabao said eagerly.
"Dabao, be good, I'll take you after grandma learns it, okay?" Mother Xu coaxed, the grandchildren were too young to take any risks.
