My courtyard shelter

After lunch, Dabao pulled his father's arm and said, "Dad, I miss grandma. Let's call her?"

"Call after the nap, okay?" Xu Dong coaxed. Reading

It's noon, and mom and the others are probably still outside. Maybe they are eating with the leaders at this moment, so how can they answer the phone.

"I'm afraid I'll forget it after sleeping." Dabao hesitated.

"I won't forget it. Dad will help you remember it!"

As soon as the voice fell, the mobile phone rang. Xu Dong took it out and saw that the grandparents and grandchildren were really in sync.

As soon as the call was connected, Xu's mother couldn't wait to ask, "Dongzi, have Dabao and the others eaten?"

"They just ate, mom, where are you?" Xu Dong asked.

"Your dad is going to treat Director Xiang and the leaders of the construction team to a meal in the cafeteria of your dad's company. When he left in the morning, he brought a barrel of oil, a large bag of dried shrimp and small dried fish, and a box of white wine from home."

Mother Xu looked a little unhappy. She was not worried about the food, but worried about her husband's health.

"Socializing is essential." Xu Dong advised.

"If your dad drinks like this, he will have problems sooner or later."

Xu Dong didn't know what to say, so he simply handed the phone to Dabao. Three little heads crowded in front of the camera, chatting with grandma.

"Grandma, I just ate five dumplings."

"Our Erbao is really amazing." Mother Xu praised.

Dabao was not to be outdone, and hurriedly competed for favor: "Grandma, I drew a family portrait this morning. When I come back, I will show it to you."

"Really? Did you draw Niuniu?" Mother Xu joked.

"I drew it. I also drew Mark and Huahua."

"Great."

"Where's Xiaobao? Tell grandma what you did this morning?"

"Dad taught me to write." Xiaobao said proudly.

"When I get home, Xiaobao will definitely be a scientist when he grows up. Grandma will enjoy a good life in the future."

As they chatted, Xu's mother's mood suddenly improved. Her grandchildren were so considerate.

Xu Dong breathed a sigh of relief.

After the call, the triplets began to take a nap in Section Chief Li's office. There was heating in the office building, so they were not afraid of freezing.

Since the smoke from Xianbeilia blocked the sun, and it was winter, the daytime temperature was very low and had been hovering below zero for more than a month.

It was miserable.

Not long after falling asleep, an unexpected guest suddenly came to the office, and the nap was completely ruined.

"Xiao Xiang, why are you back?"

Xu Dong was very surprised. Xiang Xin's breastfeeding leave was still two months long, and she would basically not come back to work until after the Chinese New Year.

Also, why did you bring the baby here?

Xiang Xin was full of laughter: "Boss, I saw the photos of Dabao and the other three in the group, and I brought the children here to see my future son-in-law."

"You, you are making a fuss. It's so cold, and you dare to bring the children out to wander around." Xu Dong shook his head speechlessly.

"It's okay. My father-in-law drove me here and sent me directly to the underground parking lot. I took the elevator up and couldn't get caught in the wind."

"That won't work either. Don't be so reckless next time."

"Where are Dabao and the others? Take me to see them. I haven't seen them for a long time." Xiang Xin urged.

Xu Dong pointed to Section Chief Li's office: "They are taking a nap in there. I'll take you in!"

"Why don't we wait until they wake up to see them?" Xiang Xin said embarrassedly.

"It's okay." Xu Dong shook his head. "They just went to bed for less than ten minutes. They must not be asleep yet."

Pushing the door open, the triplets were playing with each other, and they were in great spirits.

"Dabao, Erbao, Xiaobao, look who's here?"

When Dabao saw Xiang Xin, he subconsciously wanted to shout "Mom", but when he looked at his second brother, he immediately changed his words to: "Auntie Xiang."

"Dabao, Erbao, Xiaobao, do you miss your sister?"

Xiang Xin came to the triplets with her daughter in her arms, then squatted down and let the three brothers look at little He Yun.

The little baby had just woken up and was blowing bubbles from her mouth, not to mention how cute it was.

"Wow, it's Mengmeng sister." Erbao recognized the little baby at once.

"Mengmeng sister is so cute!" Dabao looked excited.

"You can shake hands with your sister!" Xiang Xin suggested.

Just as Dabao was about to reach out his hand, Xu Dong immediately stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, Dad will take you to wash your hands first."

"Big brother, there's no need to make a fuss, right?"

"It's necessary. Children have weak resistance, and a little virus can cause big problems. You should also pay attention to it in the future." Xu Dong reminded.

"Wow, you, the eldest brother, are a better father than me, a new mother."

"No more bullshit, I'm serious."

After washing their hands, the triplets shook hands with the baby as they wished.

"Dad, Mengmeng's hands are so small!" Dabao said in surprise.

"When you were young, your hands were smaller than your sister's."

The triplets were premature babies, weighing only more than three pounds when they were born. Xu Dong remembered very clearly that his sons' hands were not as big as a table tennis ball at that time.

Dabao looked at his chubby hands for a while, and then looked at the baby's hands: "Auntie Xiang, Mengmeng must eat more, and she will grow up if she eats more."

This is the catchphrase that Xu's mother often says.

"Dabao is really sensible."

Xiang Xin touched the back of the little guy's head. The more she looked at this "son-in-law", the more satisfied she was.

…

Half an hour later, hearing that Xiang Xin was back, colleagues took time to go back to the office, even Gao Yuemei came over.

"Xiao Xiang, give me the baby to hold. I haven't seen him for so long. I wonder if the little guy has grown heavier?"

Xiang Xin handed the child to the other party: "He has grown two kilograms. Now his appetite is so good that my milk is almost not enough for him to eat."

"You must pay attention to nutrition. Look in the mirror and see how thin you are." Gao Yuemei warned.

"I know."

Xiang Xin nodded. She was still doing well. There were eggs and meat on her food card every month, but the amount was too small. After a few meals, it was gone.

Now it all depends on the dried shrimp sent by the boss.

During this period, Xu Dong sent a few kilograms of dried shrimp to Xiang Xin and Section Chief Li's home every month. Of course, it couldn't be free. It had to be exchanged for rice.

No matter how hard it was, the baby couldn't suffer.

Next, the two chatted about family matters, and then at four o'clock, Gao Yuemei reluctantly left the office, and the canteen began to prepare dinner.

The canteen did not provide dinner at first, but as more and more people worked overtime, it gradually became a routine.

Later, as food rations became increasingly tight, many employees simply went home after a meal. They could eat their fill with three or two meal tickets, and if they didn't take advantage of it, they would be a bastard.

Sometimes, Xu Dong was also curious, where did Director Cao get so much extra food?

There were hundreds of people in the whole company?

It was okay to have one or two meals, but it was a heavy burden to have such a meal every time.
