My courtyard shelter

After Lele's interruption, Dabao quickly "cheered up". The little guy had a stern face, but he was still the good brother among the three brothers.

Before dinner, Xu Dong received a video call from Aunt Zhang, and Uncle Zhang and Zhang Enya were standing next to him.

Judging from the background, the three should be in the police station.

Only in the police station can you get free Internet.

"Xiao Xu, Happy New Year!" Aunt Zhang smiled and wished.

"Uncle Xu, good luck in the Year of the Dragon." Zhang Enya followed.

Xu Dong smiled and nodded: "Uncle also wishes you a happy Spring Festival and all your wishes come true!"

"Xiao Xu, we received the salted fish you sent. We don't lack fish here. We can't do this in the future." Aunt Zhang couldn't help but persuade.

"Aunt, you can rest assured to accept it. This time the supply is insufficient, so I can only send you five kilograms. I will send you more when there is a chance in the future."

Originally, Xu Dong was going to collect ten kilograms, but the eldest and the elder sister took a lot, and only five kilograms were left in the end.

"Five catties is already a lot, please don't send more."

Xu Dong waved his hand: "Auntie, I'm sending this fish to Enya, you two don't have to worry about it. Enya, is the salted fish delicious?"

"It's delicious, Uncle Xu, the salted fish is very fragrant."

Little Zhang Enya nodded repeatedly, rice with salted fish is simply the best delicacy in the world.

"It's good as long as it tastes good!" Xu Dong nodded, and then changed the subject: "Uncle, Auntie, after the Chinese New Year, do you want to bring Enya to play with me?"

Uncle Zhang shook his head: "Forget it, time is too tight, let's wait until the summer vacation!"

"That's fine, the summer vacation is long, and you can stay here for a few more days."

"Uncle Xu, where are Sister Coco and Sister Lele?" Zhang Enya didn't see Sister Coco and Sister Lele, so she couldn't help but interrupt and asked.

"Wait a minute, uncle will go find them."

After Xu Dong finished speaking, he took his mobile phone and went into the bedroom of the three brothers Dabao. There was a carpet in the room, and the children usually regarded it as their base camp.

Dabao was very glad that he slept on the upper bunk, because the beds of his younger brothers were always messed up by his older sisters, especially the second brother who loved cleanliness and was so angry that he cried several times.

"Keke, Lele, stop playing with your tablets, look who this is?"

Lele took the phone and immediately cheered, "Sister Enya, why is it you?"

"Sister Keke, Sister Lele, Happy New Year!"

Ma Xu came over cheekily and asked the phone screen, "Little Enya, do you still remember me?"

"You are Brother Xiaoxu, thank you for the sandals you gave me, the shoes fit me very well." Little Zhang Enya said with a smile.

"As long as you like it, I will give you a pair of sneakers when I save enough change." Ma Xu promised with a smile.

"Brother Xiaoxu, you are so nice!"

Lele pushed his cousin aside: "Go away, we girls are talking, you are not allowed to listen."

Ma Xu immediately covered his ears and refused to leave:

"Look, I can't hear you talking like this."

Xu Dong looked at the children who were fighting, scratched his scalp helplessly, then left the room directly and closed the door.

The temperature is low at night, don't get cold!

...

At seven o'clock in the evening, Xu's father finally came back.

After the ancestor worship, the New Year's Eve dinner officially began.

Before dinner, Xu Dong took out the camera and tripod, and smiled and suggested: "Dad, Mom, it's rare that everyone is here today, let's take a family photo together?"

"Okay!"

When Xu's mother heard it, she immediately raised her hands in agreement.

"Where should we take it?" Yang Lina asked.

Xu Ting rushed to answer: "Why not do it here, and include the New Year's Eve dinner, it will have a more family-friendly feel."

"The second son's idea is good, why not take it in the restaurant!" Xu's father nodded.

"Okay, let's arrange the seats first."

"Dad, mom, you two old people sit in the middle, Dabao and his friends are short, just stand in front of you, Jingyi, you sit next to grandma, Lingling, you sit next to grandpa.

As for Xiaoxu, sit next to your sister!

We adults, stand directly in the back.

Big brother, big sister-in-law, you two stand in the middle; sister, brother-in-law, you two stand on the left; Nana and I stand on the right." Xu Dong directed while looking at the camera.

Everyone took their positions one by one as required.

"Don't move, countdown for fifteen seconds."

After speaking, Xu Dong quickly returned to his position.

"Cheese..." Everyone shouted together.

As the flash came on, the camera "clicked" continuously, and ten consecutive shots were taken.

Finally, Xu Dong picked the one he was most satisfied with from the ten photos and shared it in the family group.

Mother Xu looked at the photo and was also very satisfied. Then she told her youngest son directly:

"Third brother, print out the photo later. Mom wants to hang it in the bedroom."

"Okay." Xu Dong agreed quickly.

"Print a few more copies, and leave one for me and my eldest brother." Xu Ting suggested.

"No problem, I'll even prepare the album for you."

Mother Xu came over with a pot of strawberry juice and asked everyone to sit down: "Okay, let's eat. If we don't eat, the food will get cold."

"Big brother, brother-in-law, what kind of wine do you want to drink?" Xu Dong looked at the two.

"What kind of wine do you have here?" Xu Bin asked.

"In addition to beer, there are white and red wines."

"Then let's drink white wine. Let's have a drink with Dad." Xu Bin said.

Xu's mother glared at her eldest son: "Your dad is not in good health. You just drink it yourself. Just let him drink some strawberry juice."

"Old lady, today is New Year's Eve. We, the masters, have finally gotten together. What's the point of not drinking?" Father Xu picked up the wine glass and clinked it on the table.

"Mom, let my dad drink a little, just two cups!" Xu Dong helped persuade.

Drinking creates an atmosphere, and the atmosphere is just right now.

Xu Ma frowned, then went to the living room and took a bottle of Maotai wine from the cabinet.

"Your dad can only drink two drinks. You three, don't drink too much. Just this one bottle and stop after drinking." Xu Ma emphasized.

"Okay, one bottle is enough."

Xu Dong took the wine bottle with a smile, and then personally filled up the wine for his father and the others. Everyone else also poured strawberry juice, including the three Dabao brothers.

As the head of the family, Father Xu raised his wine glass and suggested:

"Come, let's all drink together."

"Dad, during the Chinese New Year, do you always say some toasts?" Xu Dong reminded with a smile.

"What should I say?" Father Xu lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Well, I thought of it. Let's first wish Lingling good luck in her college entrance examination this year, and preferably get admitted to a famous university."

"Thank you, grandpa!" Ma Lingling smiled sweetly.

"Okay, I still hope that Ma Jie can get his wish and get a promotion and a salary increase. Dad hopes that you will work less overtime in the future and have more time to spend with the children."

"Thank you dad, I will." Ma Jie nodded solemnly.

Yang Lina smiled and joked: "Oh, all the good things this year fall on the eldest sister's family. Sister, your family is going to explode!"

"It's all still missing!" Xu Ting said humbly, but the smile on her face was brighter than anyone else's.

"I think it's almost the same."

Tan Aifang said sourly.
