My courtyard shelter

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to Gaotang!"

"The husband and wife bow to each other and send them to the bridal chamber!"

After the simple and lively wedding, the highlight of the day is the banquet. Google search reading

At this stage, most weddings do not have banquets, which has almost become a routine, but Tan Bangxiang's case is different.

For the sake of their only son, Tan Aimin and his wife gritted their teeth and spent a small sum of 100,000 yuan on two quite sumptuous banquets.

One table for adults and one for children.

In a sense, the couple also wanted to express their gratitude to the old Xu family through the banquet. Without the help of the old Xu family, they would not be able to live their current life.

Fortunately, the one hundred thousand yuan was not spent in vain, the banquet was of a very good standard, there was no shortage of fish and meat, which made Ling's father and Ling's mother feel even more proud.

Of course, this was also thanks to Xu Dong's help, otherwise even if he was willing to spend money, he wouldn't be able to buy so many high-end ingredients, and he would even have to spend several times more money.

At the children's table, because Xu Jingyi was watching from the side, there was no fighting, and the overall atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Without the supervision of his mother, Dabao opened his belly completely and ate happily.

Lele endured it for a while, but finally couldn't.

He directly said sarcastically: "Dabao, are you a loser? Why do you eat so much?"

"Humph, I'm happy to let you take care of it!"

Dabao has long been accustomed to his second sister's venomous tongue and doesn't care at all. If you do, you will lose.

"Big fat man, be careful not to find a wife in the future."

Dabao immediately lost his guard: "Who are you calling fat? Whether I can get a wife or not is none of your business?"

"Haha, you must be angry!"

Lele looked like her plot had succeeded. .

Erbao couldn't stand it and wanted to help his eldest brother out:

"Second sister, eldest brother will definitely marry Niu Niu as his wife in the future. How can he not get a wife?"

"Niuniu? It just so happens that the little fat girl and the big fat man are a perfect match."

Lele was suddenly on full fire.

"Second sister, you are going too far. Niuniu and I are just good friends, not what you think."

Lele immediately caught the "loophole": "Big scumbag, Niuniu likes you so much, but you don't want to marry her, are you still a man?"

"I...I didn't say...not to marry."

Dabao began to become incoherent.

It’s a question like this. It doesn’t matter whether you admit it or not. It’s really hard to answer.

"Hahaha, a little chubby girl and a big fat man, both fat and fat together, are invincible in the world."

Dabao was so angry that he gritted his teeth and lost all his appetite.

Seeing that his elder brother was at a disadvantage, Xiaobao began to join the battle: "Second sister, you are fatter than Niuniu, aren't you also a chubby girl? No, you are older than Niuniu, so you should be a big chubby girl."

In fact, Lele and Niuniu are not fat. At most, they have some baby fat, and their faces look relatively big.

"Smelly little treasure, your skin is itchy, right?"

Lele stroked her sleeves.

"Come on, who is afraid of whom?"

Xiaobao is not afraid of the second sister taking action.

If they really wanted to fight, the second sister would definitely not be able to beat him.

Dabao directly used the provocation method: "Big fat girl, big fat girl, big fat girl, the second sister is a big fat girl."

In their family, the father likes the second sister the most, and the mother likes the younger brother the most. He is eager for the two to fight.

Two dogs fight, play off.

His Dabao is going to be that fisherman!

"The second sister is a fat girl!"

Erbao echoed.

The three brothers are afraid that the world will not be in chaos!

Xu Jingyi tried to persuade her, but it was of no use.

Lele was so angry that she couldn't bear it, so she simply took her rice bowl to her father's table.

She was stupid to fight with the three brothers!

Tan Miaomiao took advantage of the quarrel between the people opposite and quickly finished the whole plate of braised pig's trotters. When Dabao came to his senses, he could only stare at the empty plate in shock.

"Little lion, where are the pig's trotters?"

The little lion pointed at Tan Miaomiao and said with a milky voice:

"My cousin ate it."

"Sister Miao Miao, you are so thin, how can you eat better than me?"

Dabao was extremely depressed.

Tan Miaomiao looked innocent: "I thought you didn't want to eat it, and pig's trotters don't taste good when they're cold, and eating them can cause diarrhea."

"Okay, there's still half a plate of shrimps here, all for you." Xu Jingyi quickly comforted her.

"Thank you, sis!"

Dabao took the plate with a smile and immediately pulled all the shrimps into his bowl.

Tan Miaomiao licked her lips, regretting that she had eaten too slowly just now. She chewed the bones too cleanly.

After the wedding, Xu Ting's family went directly back to Langfang. Ma Xu had to continue attending tutoring classes, and the couple held on tight.

…

That night, Dabao had a sweet dream.

As the saying goes, what you think about every day is what you dream about every night!

In the dream, he transformed into the groom, and Niu Niu was the bride. The bride was wearing a white wedding dress, and the two were paying homage as husband and wife.

Suddenly, the ground shook.

Dabao was awakened directly.

Xiaobao reacted the fastest and immediately shook his second brother awake, then climbed onto the upper bunk:

"Brother, wake up quickly. There's an earthquake. Let's go outside quickly."

"Earthquake? What earthquake?"

Dabao is a little confused and has not yet woken up from the "wedding".

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu's father and Xu's mother rushed in, dragging their grandchildren and running into the yard, without even bothering to put on their clothes.

In the yard, Mark kept shouting.

"Milk, I'm cold!"

Dabao tightened his pajamas.

"You wait in the yard, grandma will help you get your clothes."

Xu Ma quickly warned.

Xiaobao grabbed grandma's arm: "Nai, it's dangerous in the house, don't go there."

"Don't worry, grandma is very fast and will be out soon."

Xu Ma waved her hands and ran into the house.

In less than two minutes, Xu's mother came out with a lot of clothes.

At the same time, Yang Lina also took the Coco sisters downstairs, all three of them wearing cotton-padded jackets.

Father Xu didn't see his son and couldn't help but said in surprise:

"Nana, where is Dongzi?"

While helping her sons get dressed, Yang Lina complained: "They are still sleeping in bed. They said they didn't want to get up. They also said it was just a small earthquake and there was no need to make a fuss."

"A small earthquake? It woke up everyone, and it's still a small earthquake?" Xu Ma said angrily.

"He's just lazy!" Father Xu sighed.

Xu Ma handed the socks to Xiaobao and then said, "I'll go up and have a look. I'm so lazy that I even risk my life."

"Nai, let me go with you!"

Dabao shouted.

"No need!" Xu's mother waved her hand, "Old man, take the children to hide outside quickly, the yard is not safe either."

The courtyard is covered with a glass roof. The glass is heavy and thick, making it unsafe at first glance.

Father Xu nodded and started to invite everyone to go outside the gate. Dabao also wanted to lead Mark out, but Yang Lina stopped him.

Mark was quite frightened, so he had better stay away.

Xu's mother entered her son's bedroom and lifted the quilt without saying a word.

Xu Dong immediately opened his eyes:

"Mom, what are you doing?"

"I also want to ask what you want to do. There is an earthquake outside, but you can still sleep?"

Xu Dong yawned and picked up the mobile phone on the bedside: "Mom, I just checked online. It's only level 5. It's a small earthquake."

Because of his past life experience, he doesn't worry about aftershocks or danger at all. This is the advantage of a reborn person.

"Stop talking nonsense, get up and get dressed quickly."

Xu Ma doesn’t care what magnitude the earthquake is!

"Mom, I promise you, it's okay."

"No matter what happens or not, it's always good to be careful, the children are all here," Xu Ma urged.

Xu Dong sighed and had no choice but to put on his clothes. It was now past three in the morning, and it seemed that he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

After arriving at the gate, within ten minutes, he was shivering with cold.

In the capital city in January, the night temperature dropped to minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius, which was unbearable for adults, and several children even hugged each other tightly.

"Dad, Mom, let's go back. It's too cold outside."

Xu Dong advised again.

Father Xu shook his head: "What does it mean to be cold? Your life is the most important thing, so just be patient and let it pass."

"There are still several hours until dawn. Shall I light the stove?"

"What do you use to light the stove?"

Xu Ma said doubtfully.

The solid alcohol they stocked has long been used up, and even if it has not been used up, it has long passed its shelf life.

"There should be some barbecue charcoal in the basement. I'll go down and look for it." Xu Dong replied.

"Don't go down there. What if there's an earthquake?"

Yang Lina said worriedly.

"It's okay. The basement can't be emptied. I'll come as soon as I can."

Ten minutes later, Xu Dong directly moved a whole box of barbecue charcoal up, and then moved the barbecue stove to the gate.

Soon, the charcoal fire was lit.

The children gathered around the barbecue to keep warm, smiles returning to their faces.

Dabao suddenly suggested: "Dad, it's too wasteful to make a fire like this. Let's have a barbecue?"

"Don't think about it. The meat is frozen in the refrigerator. It won't be thawed for a while."

Xu Dong shook his head.

"Roasted vegetables are okay too!" Dabao begged.

"I remember there seemed to be a few corn sticks in the kitchen." Xu Ma interjected.

"Dad, I want to eat grilled corn."

Lele immediately started acting coquettishly.

Xu Dong said helplessly: "Okay, I'll go take a look."

"Sit down and I'll get it."

Xu Ma ran into the kitchen first.

After another half hour, the corn cobs were finally almost roasted. Xu Dong specially brushed them with oil and roasted them until they were golden and exuding an attractive aroma.

"Dad, are you okay?"

Dabao couldn't wait.

It's late at night, the weather is cold, and there's nothing more pleasant than having a barbecue.

"Okay, everyone, don't grab one."

Xu Dong distributed the roasted corn cobs to the children one by one. In the end, there were two corn cobs left, just one for Xu's father and Xu's mother, and one for the couple.

Xu’s mother reminded her at the right time: “Be careful of burning!”

"Milk, it's best to eat it while it's hot."

Lele said happily.

After eating the corn, Xu Ma went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water. More than an hour had passed, and she was no longer nervous at the beginning.

Xu Dong went back to the house and moved the astronomical telescope out. It was boring to be idle anyway, so why not review astronomy knowledge with the children.

The whole family stayed at the gate until after six o'clock in the morning. It was not until they read the relevant reports that Xu's father and Xu's mother were completely relieved.

Experts have said that this time it was just a small earthquake.

It’s harmless!

After breakfast, Xu Dong and the children went back to the bedroom to catch up on their sleep, while Xu's father continued to work in the company.

Xu Ma felt a little uneasy, so she took a box of snacks and prepared to chat with Lao Wang.

Yang Lina was not idle either. She also went out carrying gifts. She was going to Song Lin's house to pay New Year greetings. The two had made an appointment last night.
