My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 396

Blink of an eye to the weekend.

Gu Haiyuan's case was completely settled, as expected, it was treated as an ordinary incident of accidental injury.

Early in the morning, Xu Dong took the children for a run in the yard. Since returning from China City, under his leadership, the amount of exercise the children have increased significantly.

"Dad, I can't run anymore."

Lele put her hands on her hips, panting heavily.

"Come on, let's run another [-] laps, plus an allowance of [-] yuan per person." Xu Dong said temptingly.

Lele grabbed Ma Xu's clothes, ready to let his cousin run with him, which would be easier.

Erbao has sharp eyes and immediately reported:

"Father, the second sister cheated."

Xu Dong glanced at it, and couldn't dampen his youngest daughter's enthusiasm, so he could only agree: "With Dad, helping each other is allowed."

Several children looked at their cousin at the same time.

Ma Xu was so frightened that he threw off his arms and ran, always running at the front of the team.

Lele couldn't keep up for a while, so she stomped her feet resentfully, but she couldn't bear the ten yuan, so she gritted her teeth and hung at the back of the line.

Yang Lina is very strict about the children's pocket money. Apart from housework and lucky money, there are almost no other ways to get pocket money.

The twins can get rewards for passing the exam, but unfortunately, the two of them are getting worse and worse, and have never entered the top [-] in the class.

After the run, Yang Lina sent a pot of watermelon juice. The watermelon juice was freshly squeezed and added two spoonfuls of honey, which was especially thirst-quenching.

"It's so delicious. Mom, I want more." Dabao said holding up an empty cup.

Yang Lina refused straight away: "One cup is enough. If you drink too much, you will easily gain weight. If you get fatter, your classmates will call you fat."

"Haha, Dabao is a little fat man."

Lele clapped her little hands and booed, but Keke also covered her mouth and snickered.

Dabao immediately became anxious: "Mom is lying, I am not a little fat man."

"Brother is not a fat man."

"The second sister is the little fat girl!"

As natural allies, Erbao and Xiaobao naturally sided with Big Brother.

Mama Xu waved to her eldest grandson:
"Dabao, come to grandma."

The little guy threw himself into Mama Xu's arms with a crying voice:
"Grandma, I'm not a fat man."

Mother Xu wiped away her tears for her eldest grandson, and said without hesitation: "How can our eldest son be a fat man? Dabao is a little man."

"Grandma, I am also a little man."

"And I."

Mama Xu patted the heads of the three brothers one by one, then called Ke Ke and Le Le to her, and began to remember bitterness and sweetness.

The children listened with gusto.

……

Xu Dong went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then drove out in the pickup truck.

The white sugar was packed last night.

When I came to the old place, the underground parking lot of a brother unit, someone came over very quickly, more than ten minutes earlier than the agreed time, it seemed that everyone couldn't wait.

"Old Xu, long time no see."

The person who came was Lao Zhu from Daxia Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Group, and he was an old acquaintance. They had lived in the same dormitory back then.

"It's been almost a year." Xu Dong handed over a cigarette, "How's work going?"

"It's okay. Our shipyard has basically never stopped working in the past two years. The orders are all scheduled for three years later, and we can't stop even if we want to."

"Are there so many ships to be built?"

Xu Dong expressed his doubts. Now that international trade has shrunk by more than [-]%, he really can't think of the use of building so many ships.

Fishing?
The fish are almost gone.

Lao Zhu took a deep breath of cigarettes: "We mainly build water transport ships. Now water transport ships are no less profitable than oil tankers, and the whole world is scrambling for them."

"Isn't it possible to rebuild it with an ordinary merchant ship?"

"Definitely not." Old Zhu shook his head. "In the Antarctic and Arctic regions, the surrounding waters are densely covered with icebergs. In addition to the changing climate, it is almost impossible for ordinary cargo ships to move forward. We must use ships of the same level as icebreakers."

"I have learned a lot. Since there are so many icebergs, why don't you just drag them back?" Xu Dong asked curiously.

"One is that the distance is too far, and they all melted before being dragged back; the other is that many of these icebergs are sea ice, and even if they are brought back, they are of little value."

Old Zhu explained.

"So that's what happened!" Xu Dong nodded.

Lao Zhu finally concluded: "Comprehensively, the construction of water transport ships is the most reliable and the most efficient."

"That's not right!" Xu Dong suddenly realized, "Based on the current climate, the glaciers in the North and South Poles are estimated to disappear in a few years. Wouldn't these ships be built for nothing by then?"

"Old Xu, do you know a lot?" Old Zhu said unexpectedly.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "I also read the news."

"The situation you mentioned does exist. In two or three years, the glaciers in the North and South Poles are estimated to disappear.

But you don't have to worry too much. Our country has occupied many natural lakes in the North and South Poles, and built many reservoirs, which should last for a few more years. "

"I didn't expect such a thing to come out!"

Xu Dong said with deep emotion.

"Stop talking about this, where is my white sugar?"

Xu Dong patted the car door: "In the compartment, there are nineteen people on your side. I'll give you two bags, totaling two hundred catties. The extra ten catties will be considered as a private subsidy for you."

"Old Xu, you are very interesting, thank you."

"Why are you being polite to me?"

The reason why Xu Dong was so generous was purely because the two were roommates, plus ten catties of sugar was not too much, so he was too lazy to do anything.

In the end, Lao Zhu left 57 yuan in cash, and at the same time transferred 30,000 yuan with his mobile phone.

Not long after Lao Zhu left, someone came over soon. This time it was Lao Qin, who was the one who helped deal with Mama Xu's accident last time.

Xu Dong specially sent a message, hoping that the other party could come over as a representative. It had no other meaning, but just wanted to take the opportunity to express his gratitude.

Before, because of the epidemic, I never had the chance to give some gifts, and then I just forgot, but this time I finally remembered.

"Old Xu, how is Auntie's leg?"

Xu Dong passed a cigarette to the other party as usual, but this time he didn't smoke it himself.

"The doctor said it will take some time, and he should be able to go to the ground next month."

"The elderly recover slowly, and it is appropriate to be cautious."

"If I hadn't persuaded her, my mother would have been retiring this month." Xu Dong smiled wryly.

Mother Xu is impatient, and she has been holding back at home for a long time, and she couldn't hold it any longer. Xu Dong finally extended the time until August.

But not a few days.

"It's better to pay more attention as much as possible!"

"You're right!" Xu Dong nodded. "Okay, let's trade as soon as possible. There are 37 people in your group. I'll bring you four bags of sugar, totaling [-] catties."

"Old Xu, there are too many..." Lao Qin quickly reminded.

"Not much, the extra thirty catties is a private gift from me. If you feel embarrassed to take it, you can pay the original price."

"Old Xu, I don't even know what to say now!"

Facing the big pie falling from the sky, Lao Qin really didn't have the courage to refuse.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
