My courtyard shelter

We had seafood dumplings for lunch. Reading

The taste was extremely delicious.

Each of the triplets ate a big bowl of dumplings, and their little bellies were bulging. Ma Xu ate the most, finishing 30 dumplings in one breath, and his appetite was bigger than Xu Dong.

After the meal, Yang Lina brewed a pot of chrysanthemum tea for everyone to relieve the greasiness, and also to reduce internal heat. The climate was too dry, so chrysanthemum tea was the most suitable.

In the living room, everyone was chatting.

"Sister, did your brother-in-law say when he would arrive?"

"He said he bought a ticket for 2 pm, and he should arrive around 3 pm." Xu Ting took a sip of chrysanthemum tea and replied.

Dad Xu interrupted and asked, "Are you going to the annual meeting in the afternoon?"

"No, I'll stay and watch the door!" Xu Ting shook her head.

"Your mother is at home, you don't need to watch the door."

Mom Xu is now only interested in her own bakery. The bakery is still open today, and there are less than five people who actually attend the annual meeting.

She feels it's boring to go.

It's better to wait until next year and hold an annual meeting herself.

"Forget it, I'll wait for Ma Jie at home!"

"Whatever you say, what about you, Boss?" Father Xu looked at his eldest son.

"I won't go either. I have to go to my master's house in the afternoon."

It's not that Xu Bin is not interested, but it's a pity that their family has no share in the company, and going there will only make him more upset.

"Is the master you worship reliable?" Father Xu asked with a frown.

"Reliable, absolutely reliable. My master is a registered member of the Daxia Sculpture Society. You can find a lot of news reports about him on the Internet. He is also well-known in the industry and has great skills!"

Father Xu was even more suspicious now.

"Boss, don't blame me for speaking harshly. You are so old and have no foundation in carving. What do they want to take you as an apprentice for?"

Xu Dong was also full of curiosity: "Boss, how much tuition did you pay?"

"What are you thinking? My master didn't charge tuition and didn't lie to me. He is a real master. I am just a nominal disciple now, not a real apprentice."

"If you are too attentive, you are either a traitor or a thief!" Father Xu snorted coldly.

Xu Bin smiled bitterly and said his guess:

"Well, my master probably wants to sell me part of his collection. Now the entire collection industry is in a depression.

Let's talk about my master's family. They spent a lot of money on collections before, but now they can't sell their collections. They are all stuck in their hands, so they are in a hurry to cash out."

"Have you bought it?" Xu's father asked.

"Not yet." Xu Bin shook his head. "I'm not stupid. You can buy things, but you must guide me. My master has also hinted to me that he will help me get started."

"Then you don't plan to open a store in the future?"

"Dad, the store still needs to be opened. I can collect and open a store at the same time. Otherwise, if there is no income at home, Aifang will definitely make a fuss. Before, we both resigned and agreed to open a small supermarket here."

"Okay, be careful and don't be deceived." Xu's father said impatiently.

...

It was one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time to attend the annual meeting. Everyone changed their clothes and got on the Mercedes-Benz directly.

Because there were not enough seats in the car, Yang Lina had to hold Xiaobao in her arms. The little guy was dozing off with his arms around his mother's neck.

Before departure, Xu Dong reminded:

"Keke, don't forget the violin?"

Keke patted the violin case at her feet and replied a little nervously: "Dad, I brought the violin with me!"

"Play well, don't be nervous." Yang Li encouraged her. Her eldest daughter has been learning violin for more than a year and finally made some progress.

"Mom, I'm nervous too." Lele was jealous when she saw that her mother only cared about her sister.

"Okay... okay... you have to work hard too!"

"Mom, your 'work hard' is too perfunctory!"

Lele was very angry, but she didn't dare to lose her temper with her mother, so she had to vent all her anger on Dabao.

Before she finished speaking, she directly clamped Dabao's head with her arms and rubbed the little guy's face.

This made Dabao scream.

"Mom, my second sister bullied me." Dabao touched her face and said aggrievedly.

Yang Lina glared at her little daughter: "You're itching, right?"

Lele turned her head away guiltily and hugged her cousin's arm for comfort.

"Okay, sit down, we're going to drive."

Xu Dong hurried out to help. If this got out of hand, I really didn't know how it would end.

In less than half an hour, Lijingwan International Hotel arrived. It was less than three kilometers away from Jinchang'an Building, very close.

The group got off the car at the main entrance of the hotel.

Ye Hui hurriedly came up to greet them: "Mr. Xu, you're here."

Dad Xu nodded, and then introduced several younger generations to each other. It was the first time for Ye Hui to see the triplets, and she touched the heads of the little ones one by one.

"Dabao, Erbao, Xiaobao, hello!"

"Hello, Aunt Ye!" The triplets replied as their mother taught them.

After the greetings, Xu's father casually asked, "How many people have come?"

"Two-thirds of the people have come, and the rest are still waiting for the bus and subway." Ye Hui replied.

"Didn't you hire a car?"

"Today, the transportation is very tight. We only hired a minibus. The capacity is limited, so everyone can only take the bus by themselves." Ye Hui explained.

The company will not be on holiday until noon, plus the lunch time, the schedule is indeed a bit tight.

"Can you make it in time?" Xu's father frowned.

"There are still forty minutes, so it should be in time."

Xu Dong interrupted and said, "Why don't you drive my car over to pick them up? My car is big and can hold ten people at a time."

"No, no, if it doesn't work, I'll just ask them to walk over. Two kilometers is not very far."

Ye Hui immediately shook her head and refused. The other party was driving a Mercedes-Benz. At the current market price, this car is worth at least 10 million yuan. If it gets bumped, who can afford to pay for it?

It's better to be safe!

"Okay, let's go in first. When everyone is here, remember to call me to notify me." Xu's father ordered.

"Okay." Ye Hui nodded and agreed.

The group took the elevator directly to the second floor. There were special people guiding them along the way. After entering the banquet hall, there were indeed many people sitting inside.

Seeing the big boss coming in, many people ran over to say hello, and Xu's father was soon surrounded by his subordinates.

Xu Dong took the children and sat in the middle of the front row of the banquet hall. The seats were arranged in advance, and each seat was labeled with a name.

Even the names of the triplets were there.

Right in front of the banquet hall was a temporary stage with an area of ​​about 20 square meters. The stage layout was pretty good, simple yet solemn.

Not long after the group sat down, Dabao shouted:

"Dad, I want to go to the bathroom."

Xu Dong quickly stood up and asked, "Who else wants to go with me?"

"Dad, I want to go too!" Erbao raised his hand.

Xiaobao hesitated for a moment and also raised his hand.
