My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 524
On New Year's Eve, the courtyard was very lively.

Ma Lingling brought her boyfriend back.

The young man's name is Yang Shuo. He is tall and handsome, and he has a good family background. After graduating from university, he chose to start his own business, doing import and export trade.

It is said that last year alone, it made a profit of tens of millions.

Speaking of which, the two met through a blind date, and the matchmaker was Xu Jingyi's mother-in-law.

At the beginning, both parties were perfunctory. Fortunately, after several contacts, they quickly developed a good impression of each other, and the relationship was officially confirmed last week.

Knowing that their daughter is in a relationship, Xu Ting and Ma Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief. Today is also the first time they meet their "future son-in-law". The couple are very satisfied.

Yang Shuo left after lunch.

Ma Lingling personally sent her boyfriend out of the house.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Bin and his wife also left. Since Xu Jingyi got married, they basically went to their daughter's place for New Year's Eve dinner.

Especially this year, neither the father-in-law nor the son-in-law could come back. At the invitation of the mother-in-law, the two simply lived together.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the New Year's Eve dinner began.

This year's New Year's Eve dinner was extraordinarily luxurious. Thanks to Mr. Mike's relationship, Xu Dong got a lot of precious ingredients, including more than ten catties of wagyu beef, which made the whole family feast.

Dabao ate two pieces of steak by himself, and kept shouting:

"Delicious, so delicious!"

Seeing that her eldest grandson liked it, Xu's mother was happier than drinking honey: "Eat slowly, don't choke, no one will grab you."

Lele was very conflicted. After all, she is a big girl. She knows she loves beauty. Due to her weight, she only cut half of the steak, and gave the rest to her father.

Of course Xu Dong accepted it with a smile, who doesn't like Wagyu?He still wants to eat two more bites!

This thing is imported from a beautiful country, and the tariffs are horribly high. Even he is only willing to spend money during the Chinese New Year.

I usually eat ordinary beef.

As for the place of origin Nisan.

Sorry, I can't afford it, and it doesn't conform to the spirit of the Asia-Pacific Treaty. Looking around the world, only beautiful countries have the financial resources and consumer market.

Xu Dong himself bought it secretly.

If this matter gets to the outside world, it will be a question mark whether he can keep his position as director. After all, the current society is still vigorously advocating frugality.

This is also the consensus of the whole society.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Dong took out a stack of red envelopes and started giving out lucky money.

The three Dabao brothers have long given up their expectations.

But this year there was finally an exception. The five siblings plus Ma Lingling and Ma Xu were treated equally. Everyone was paid 800 yuan.

As soon as Xiaobao got the red envelope, he took the initiative to hand over the New Year's money to his mother.

Yang Lina smiled and patted her youngest son's head. It was rare to find someone who could read in the family, which added a lot of brilliance to her face.

"Keep it for yourself, mother believes that you will make good use of the money."

"thanks Mom!"

Xiaobao nodded fiercely.

When Dabao saw it, he immediately followed suit.

She rushed all the way to her mother and handed in the New Year's money, but this time Yang Lina was rude and confiscated 700 yuan on the spot, leaving only [-] yuan for her eldest son.

"Mom, you are biased!"

Dabao was dumbfounded.

In order to buy a VR helmet, my father had already emptied all the savings of the three brothers, and now the lucky money is their only pocket money.

"Why is mother partial?"

Yang Lina said unhappily.

Dabao pointed at his younger brother and shouted: "Just now Xiaobao got 800 yuan, and there is no shortage of one piece."

"Xiaobao got No. 1 in the class in the final exam. That was rewarded by his mother. Why do you have any objections?"

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Does mother still have to report to you?"

Dabao shrank his neck, and could only admit that he was unlucky.

Yang Lina also didn't let Er Bao go, and immediately called her second son to her.

Erbao reluctantly handed over the red envelope.

Dabao finally felt at ease.

Without further ado, Yang Lina took away the 500 yuan in the red envelope, but she still kept [-] yuan.

Er Bao's spirit was shaken, and he quickly said gratefully:
"thanks Mom!"

Dabao's chubby face flushed red: "Mom, are you dazzled? Why do you have 300 yuan left for the second brother?"

"Er Treasure's final ranking is higher than yours, and if you are higher, you will be rewarded."

Yang Lina took it for granted.

"Isn't it just two taller?"

Dabao is very unconvinced. Usually, his and his second brother's achievements basically belong to you chasing after each other, and the two brothers are equally divided.

"The first grade is too high. Mom only cares about the result." Yang Lina waved her hand.

"It's so unfair!"

"Since it's not fair, next time you exceed the second treasure, mom will keep you three hundred next time."

Yang Lina has long been displeased with the two brothers hugging each other to keep warm. A scumbag should have the consciousness of a scumbag. Fortunately, the youngest son is not the kind of nerd who only knows how to read, otherwise he would definitely be bullied to death by his brothers.

Hearing what their mother said, Dabao and Erbao looked at each other, and finally Erbao compromised, and took 100 yuan from the red envelope and handed it to the elder brother.

Dabao took it with a smile.

Compared with the hardship of studying, the two brothers still feel that it is good to have a difficult brother, isn't it just 100 yuan?

At worst, I will sell a few barrels of chrysanthemum tea in the future.

Seeing this scene, Yang Lina was so angry that she was half dead, and then vented her anger on her daughters, but unfortunately the two sisters didn't care at all.

They have a huge inventory of figurines.

If you are short of money, just sell two figures.

……

Early the next morning, Xu Dong went out as usual, but now that he is the head of the dignified department, some people no longer need him to run in person.

For example, Director Su and Zhao Jian.

The former is about the same level as him, and the latter is even one level lower than him. The two families are basically run by the eldest niece Ma Lingling.

Ma Lingling and Mr. Yu are basically in charge of many personal connections in the bakery. Xu's father and Xu's mother are old and don't like these entertainments very much.

The first person Xu Dong came to was Director Li's house.

"Uncle Xu, I want to go to your house to play."

Little Li Tao's eyes were full of longing.

Xu Dong put down the gift, and patted the little guy on the back of the head:
"The gate of Uncle's house is not closed, if you want to play, just go there!"

"But brother Dabao won't take me to play."

Little Li Tao said aggrievedly.

"what happened?"

Aunt Li quickly explained: "The two of them fought once before, and Dabao was punished by Nana to stand for an hour. It must be a feud."

"Tell uncle, why are you two fighting?"

Little Li Tao twitched and said the matter again.

"Hey, it's wrong to fight, both of you are at fault."

Little Li Tao nodded.

Xu Dong continued to teach: "Also, it's wrong for you to bully Sister Niu Niu. Boys have to count on what they say, how can they be foolish?"

"I didn't play foolishly." Little Li Tao immediately defended, "It's because the game is so fun that I couldn't hold back for a while."

Xu Dong scratched the little guy's nose.

At the same time, he also came to his senses, good guy, Xiaobao actually secretly wrote down the power-on password, he must have played secretly, and he must teach him a lesson later.

"The game hasn't started yet? Can't bear it?"

"Uncle Xu, your game is just like the real thing, it's so interesting."

Xiao Li Tao beamed brightly.

"Okay, it's not difficult to play games. Let your mother take you to your uncle's house tomorrow, and then you can take the initiative to apologize to Sister Niuniu, and Dabao will forgive you, okay?"

"All right!"

Although Xiao Li Tao was a little reluctant, but when he thought of the fun game, he could only agree.

Xu Dong reached out and pinched the little guy's face.

Chief Li's food is good, and little Li Tao is more and more likely to grow into a chubby paper.

After leaving Director Li's house, Xu Dong went to Director Cao's house. Although Director Cao was gone, Aunt Cao was still there, and the relationship between the two families was still there.

Especially Director Cao's eldest daughter, Cao Zhenzhen.

The other party is a teacher at a university and has a lot of contacts in the education system. The Coco sisters' dream of university may even trouble others!
"Xiao Xu, why are you here so early?"

Aunt Cao was as enthusiastic as ever.

It's just that the old man is obviously older.

"I still have something to do in the afternoon, so I went out a little earlier."

Xu Dong replied truthfully.

"Shall we go after lunch?"

"No, no, I have to go to another house later!"

Aunt Cao sighed: "You, like our old man, pay New Year's greetings everywhere. I know you are busy, so I won't keep you."

Xu Dong smiled and handed the gift to the other party.

"Auntie, there is a bottle of honey in the bag. You don't sleep well. Drinking this is the most effective."

"It must be expensive, right?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "It's not expensive, you can just drink it at ease, and I'll make it for you after you finish drinking."

"How could it not be expensive? Last time I heard from the people of Zhizhi No. [-] Factory that a bottle of honey now costs tens of thousands. No, you have to pay for it."

Aunt Cao quickly called her eldest son over.

Xu Dong talked and talked, and finally persuaded the other party to accept the gift. After all, Uncle Cao was gone, so it was too far-fetched to say that accepting bribes was far-fetched.

Next stop, District Chief Liao's house.

Since three years ago, the two sides have formally communicated. As for Song Lin's side, Yang Lina is mainly responsible for walking around, and he hasn't been there for several years.

Before going out, Xu Dong specially prepared a small gift.

It's really thin, only a catty of dried sweet potatoes, plus a catty of chrysanthemum tea, the total cost is only 400 yuan.

District Mayor Liao accepted the gift with pleasure.

Then the two chatted for more than an hour about the project plan of Xinke Seaweed. If Xu Dong didn't check his watch frequently, the other party would still not be willing to let him go!

Coming out of District Chief Liao's house, Aunt Wang's house was next. The other party was at a critical moment of promotion, so Xu Dong didn't dare to give a heavy gift, but also just for fun.

Aunt Wang is not unhappy at all.

At the last stop, Xu Dong came to the boss.

As a result, Xu Bin was not at home and went to the digital store.

Tan Bangxiang held a wedding the day after tomorrow, and the young couple is busy, so the store can only be temporarily handed over to the eldest uncle.

Xu Bin was reluctant to close the door, and went out early in the morning with Xiao Huzi in his arms.

Xu Dong left the gift and went to Lao Pan's house with his sister-in-law.

Originally, he was an elder and didn't need to come to the door in person.

But they've all come here, and there's no loss in a trip. Besides, Lao Pan's family is not an ordinary family, and there is no harm in the two families walking around more.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
