My Courtyard Refuge

: Egg Disturbance

The whole morning passed quickly.

At noon, Dad Xu went home to take his lunch, and then took it directly back to the office.”Coco, Lele, go wash your hands and eat.”

“Oh, grandpa, did grandma make braised sea cucumber today?” Lele asked excitedly.

The braised sea cucumber tastes chewy, and the sisters fell in love with it immediately.

Father Xu touched his little granddaughter’s scalp: “I did it, I’ve been eating it for several days, don’t you get tired of it?”

“I will never get tired of eating for a lifetime.” Lele said with her head held high.

“Little slick, you forgot what you said when you ate shrimp?” Dad Xu joked.

“Uh, dried prawns don’t count. I like to eat fresh lobsters.” Lele “quibbled” and ran to wash her hands after speaking.

When he came back after washing his hands, Father Xu had already prepared the meals.

Today is the twins’ day, Xu Ma cooked two more dishes than usual, a total of five dishes and one soup, with meat and vegetables, and the nutrition is very balanced.

Father Xu saw that the food was quite large, so he called Ye Hui and asked her to come over for dinner.

Ye Hui refused at first, but Dad Xu couldn’t bear it and went over to invite her over in person.

“Aunt Ye, I’ll serve you a meal.” Coco was very sensible.

Ye Hui nodded her head to express her gratitude. Just looking at the food on the table made her a little dazed. The living standard of this family is too high!

The six dishes are braised sea cucumber, braised dried shrimp, fried fish steak, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and fried water spinach, and finally there is a large bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

Father Xu made a point of explaining: “Today is Children’s Day, and her grandma made something richer.”

“No wonder.”

Ye Hui spat out two dry words, not only rich, but also luxurious.

“Grandpa, can we have dinner?” Lele couldn’t wait to hold the rice bowl.

Father Xu nodded.

Lele first picked up a sea cucumber for herself, and then another for grandpa.

“My family, Lele, is really filial.” Dad Xu looked relieved.

Ke Ke also picked up a fish steak for Grandpa: “Grandpa, Grandma said you should eat less meat and more fish.”

“Okay, grandpa eats fish, Mr. Ye, use your chopsticks too!”

Ye Hui picked up a tomato.

Xu’s father couldn’t bear to look at it, so he directly brought the fried fish steak in front of the other party, but Ye Hui couldn’t refuse, so he had to sandwich a piece of fish steak.

Lele followed her grandfather’s lead and brought a sea cucumber to Aunt Ye: “Aunt Ye, eat sea cucumbers. Sea cucumbers are delicious.”

“Thank you, Lele, Auntie can just come by herself.”

After a meal, Ye Hui was almost full. It’s been a long time since she had eaten such a good meal. The key is that there is enough oil and water. This feeling is so blissful.

“Boss Ye, take a sip of tea and get rid of the greasy.”

Father Xu poured a cup of black tea for the other party. This tea set was given by his son a few days ago, and he liked it very much.

“Thank you Xu Dong.” Ye Hui quickly took the teacup.

The tea is good tea, Ye Hui drank three cups of tea in a row.

Father Xu saw that Ye Hui liked it, so he directly gave Ye Hui a can of tea. He has learned a lot about how to win people’s hearts recently.

After Ye Hui left, the twins were going to take a nap. There were mattresses in the office, and they could sleep on the floor.

Dad Xu raised the temperature of the air conditioner by two degrees to prevent the granddaughters from catching cold.

I slept until three o’clock in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, the morning was basically repeated. In addition to reading homework, the twins also went to the company’s employee activity center to play table tennis for a while.

At six o’clock in the evening, Dad Xu took his granddaughters to get off work on time, and the day was basically over.

…

When the time came to the weekend, colleagues from the security department met at the south gate of the company as agreed.

“Uncle Li, this is the nutrition you want.”

Xu Dong handed the bag in his hand to Section Chief Li. The bag contained eggs. In order to prevent the eggs from breaking, he specially made two egg holders.

Section Chief Li took the bag and asked casually, “What is it?”

“It’s nothing, I changed 22 eggs.”

Sister Feng immediately came over:

“Good stuff, it’s not easy to get some eggs now, Xiao Xu, where did you get these eggs?”

“Panjiayuan, I traded it with corn flour.” There was nothing to hide, Xu Dong replied truthfully.

“How did you change it?”

When Sister Feng asked, she had long wanted to exchange some nutritional supplements for her little grandson, but she couldn’t find a way.

“One egg for two catties of cornflour.”

Sister Feng was a little speechless: “This is too expensive!”

“The current market situation is like this.” Xu Dong spread his hands.

“Oh, I can’t afford it!” Sister Feng sighed.

Although their family has stockpiled thousands of catties of food, they still have to support their two daughters, especially the eldest daughter’s family of five, who have been living a tight life.

Up to now, their family has less than 700 catties of food left, and it is impossible to be as extravagant as before.

Moreover, the drought seems to be getting worse.

Section Chief Li took out two eggs from the bag and stuffed them directly to the other party: “Here, don’t cry poor in front of everyone, everyone is the same.”

“Thank you section chief!” Sister Feng happily took the chickenEgg.

The others were very moved when they saw it, but everyone is a big man, and they really can’t save face if they want to save face.

“Xiao Xu, next time there are eggs, you can help me take them directly, I am also short of eggs now.” Section Chief Li ordered.

“I’ve made a note.” Xu Dong nodded.

He hadn’t sent eggs to the other party for several months. Speaking of which, he didn’t have many eggs in his house, so he was willing to give them away.

Mainly Dabao and the three of them. Every morning, there are three hard-boiled eggs, plus the ones used for cooking. I really can’t save a few eggs.

Moreover, even if it is the saved eggs, it is even more nervous to help the old sister’s family from time to time.

“Xiao Xu, pay attention to me too.” Uncle Chen echoed, occasionally changing two eggs to nourish the child’s body, their family still has this condition.

“If you have more, get me a copy too!” Everyone chattered.

Xu Dong waved his hand to calm everyone down: “Everyone knows that eggs are in short supply now. I can only ask for you here. It depends on luck.”

He planned to go back and contact Mr. Li, Boss Duan’s brother-in-law and the person in charge of Yanjing, to see if he had any goods in his hand.

“Since Xiao Xu said it, don’t worry, everyone, just wait for the news slowly.” Section Chief Li reassured.

===Section 150===

“Xiao Xu, thank you in advance.”

“You’re welcome, we are all colleagues, thank you!”

After talking about the eggs, everyone sat on Xu Dong’s big car. There were nine people in the security department, no more, no less, just enough to sit down.

This time I’m visiting a colleague, so there’s no need to make it so public.

On the way, everyone “posted” the gifts they carried.

What Xu Dong sent was a basket of fresh vegetables;

Lao Fang sent five catties of rice;

Uncle Chen sent two catties of mung beans;

Sister Feng sent potato cakes made by herself, which weighed ten catties;

Others gave the same thing.

Generally speaking, as a member of the security department, everyone’s life is pretty good, that’s why they are so generous.
