My courtyard shelter

Chapter 441: Responsibility

"Sister, how is your family's life now? Do you lack food?"

"Yiling is not a small city, and life is pretty good right now. It's all thanks to you. If it weren't for the packages you delivered on time every month, our family would have been in trouble."

Zhang Xiuyan quickly expressed her gratitude. .

Last year, around this time, a stranger suddenly came to their home. After some exchanges, it turned out that it was my sister who asked an employee of her company to bring them a package.

The package contained thirty kilograms of corn flour.

At the same time, there was a letter inside, which said that the food was loaned to their family and they could pay it back whenever they wanted.

In fact, everyone knows that the reason for this letter is mainly to take care of their family's face.

Since then, their family has received a package at the beginning of every month, and occasionally there will be salted fish or sugar in the package.

It is with these things that their family lives a pretty good life, at least the whole family is not hungry.

Xu Ma smiled and waved the spatula:

"We are sisters, why are you talking about this!"

Here is a brief introduction: Xu Ma has no biological brothers, only one biological sister, Zhang Xiuyan. The relationship between the two sisters has always been quite good.

When Xu's mother and Xu's father planned to buy a house in the city, Zhang Xiuyan borrowed a sum of money without hesitation, which solved the couple's urgent need.

Xu's father had even fewer relatives. He lost his mother when he was young, and his only brother also died in infancy, so the two families together only had one relatively close relative.

Zhang Xiuyan looked at the fried fish steaks in the pot and couldn't help but said with envy: "Little sister, the quality of your food is so good. My brother-in-law is really capable."

"You mean Lao Xu?" Xu's mother shook her head, "Sister, you misunderstood. Dongzi brought all the food at home. Even the old man's company was opened with the help of Dongzi. Lao Xu, you are not the first I met him in just one day, but he doesn’t have the ability.”

"Ah? Dongzi is so powerful? Then why doesn't he become his own boss?"

Zhang Xiuyan said in surprise.

"The word 'lazy', even though he is working in a power company now, I asked someone to help him find this job. I was just afraid that he...what's that buzzword, by the way, I was afraid that he would fall flat."

Xu Ma sighed.

"Didn't Dongzi become the section chief? It means he is still motivated. Why are you worrying so much?" Zhang Xiuyan comforted.

"It's no good if you don't worry. Dongzi doesn't know whether he has a good life or a bad life, but he gave birth to five children at once. If he, as a father, does not make progress, what will you do to the children?

The reason why the old man worked so hard was not only because of his own vanity, but also because he was worried about the third child. Although Dongzi was smart, he was too willful. "

"I think Dongzi is quite stable. How could he be so unreliable as you say?"

Xu Ma cut off a small piece of fish fillet with a spatula, and then handed it to the elder sister:

"Test it for me if it's done? Dongzi and the others like to eat tender fish steaks, but they can't control the time every time."

Zhang Xiuyan was not polite at all, she picked up the chopsticks and picked it up, then blew the hot air and stuffed it into her mouth.

“It’s cooked and tastes great!”

"That's good. Dabao and the others have weak stomachs. If they are not cooked, they will have diarrhea."

"Children really need to be careful."

After loading the fish steaks, Xu Ma was ready to continue the topic: "What did you just say?"

"You said Dongzi was willful."

"That's right, the third child in our family is really willful."

Xu Ma sighed:

"Some time ago, a fire broke out in a factory here. Dongzi happened to be visiting and studying in the factory at the time. Guess what?"

"What's wrong?" Zhang Xiuyan asked cooperatively.

"He actually secretly ran over to put out the fire. You said he is not a firefighter, so why should he put out the fire? If something unfortunate happens, wouldn't it mean that we, the white-haired people, should help the black-haired people?"

"It's not that serious, is it?"

Xu Ma poured a large spoonful of oil into the pot and started to cook the braised prawns.

"Why not? The fire was an electric car, and the battery exploded. He was also injured, and he wanted to hide it from us when he came back."

This matter was exposed thanks to the report in the Yanjing Morning Post. Xu's father discovered it first, and then Xu's mother also found out.

"Is the injury serious?" Zhang Xiuyan asked with concern.

"Fortunately, God bless me, and I wore thicker clothes in winter, so the fragment hit my thigh, so it wasn't too serious. If it had injured the aorta, even the gods wouldn't be able to save it. I'm scared to think about it now."

Xu Ma patted her chest.

"It's fine." Zhang Xiuyan saw that her younger sister was excited and quickly changed the topic, "Where's Dabin? How is their family in Luyang?"

"It's not bad. Jingyi graduated in June this year. Their whole family will move here soon. Then I will feel completely at ease."

"We should have moved here earlier. I heard it's very difficult to settle in the capital now."

Xu Ma stir-fried the shrimps a few times:

"Who says it's not the case? When the second child moved here two years ago, everyone advised them to move here together. However, Dabin and his wife wanted to stay with Jingyi and missed the opportunity.

If you look at Tingting's family, not only have they obtained a household registration in the capital, but they have also changed their house. Lingling has also successfully been admitted to Xia Qing University.

This time in and out, they made more than 10 million in just money. Even if the two of them worked hard for a lifetime, they would not be able to save so much money. "

"Dabin's bad luck is fate."

Xu's mother shook her head: "You can't say that. The eldest is stubborn and doesn't believe Dongzi's words. The second is willing to believe Dongzi. Look how easy their family life is now."

"Dongzi has made progress."

...

After receiving the call from his wife, Xu Dong rushed back immediately. This aunt is the only relative in their family who is still in contact.

My mother was still nagging a few days ago, wanting my father to rest a few more days after the New Year and accompany her to visit relatives in Yiling. Unexpectedly, the other party actually came to the door in person.

After arriving home, Xu Dong just parked the car.

Dabao and his three brothers came over with their cousin.

"Dad, we have a new cousin."

"Hello, uncle!" Da Jie was a little shy.

Xu Dong smiled at his niece: "Xiao Jie, do you remember your uncle?"

"I remember. Last time my uncle came to visit my house, he gave me a big red envelope of 600 yuan, but unfortunately my mother took it away."

"It's good that you remember it. When you arrive at your uncle's house, just treat it as your own home. Don't be polite."

Da Jie nodded, and a hint of redness appeared on her dark face.

Da Bao interrupted: "Dad, I just picked a lot of strawberries with my cousin. My cousin said that our strawberries are so sweet."

"Did you want to eat strawberries yourself and deliberately let your cousin pick them for you? You forgot what your mother said. You can only eat three strawberries a day."

Xu Dong reached out and knocked on his eldest son's head.

Xiao Bao saw that his eldest brother was punished, and immediately shrank his neck in fear. This idea was actually his idea. His eldest brother was usually "stupid", so how could he think of such a good idea.

However, as the eldest brother, Dabao is still very responsible. The little guy did not betray his younger brother. Besides, his father did not use any force at all, but the momentum looked a little scary.
