My courtyard shelter

After dealing with Aunt Zhang's funeral, everyone sat together for a family meeting, mainly to arrange the future life of Ma Xu and his wife. Google search reading

"Enya, do you plan to stay in Qindao or go back to Sydney with us?"

Xu Ting asked proactively.

"Mom, Enya is taking the college entrance examination this year, so let's wait and see!"

Ma Xu rushed to answer.

"Doesn't Sydney have a university? Coco and Lele are studying at Sydney University, and the three of them can just be a companion. Besides, you will graduate next year and will go back sooner or later."

Xu Ting insisted.

Enya still has four years in college, and we can't let the young couple stay in China forever, right? If the two have a child, the family can help take care of it.

"Xiao Xu probably can't bear to leave his wife!"

Xu Dong laughed and teased.

Zhang Enya pulled Ma Xu and whispered:

"Xiao Xu, just listen to mom, I haven't seen Coco and the others for several years, I miss them so much, this time we can finally get together."

As soon as this was said,

Xu Ting immediately found her daughter-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye!

"Okay, you can go back to Sydney first." Ma Xu nodded, and then changed the subject: "Uncle, is my sister recruiting interns? I want to go there for an internship for a while."

"Didn't you say before that you wanted to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination?"

Xu Dong deliberately teased.

"Well, I want to work for a few years before taking the postgraduate entrance examination."

Ma Xu explained with embarrassment.

"That's fine, your sister is very busy now, you can go and help her, you will definitely learn something."

Xu Dong suppressed his smile, young people are impatient, and they are not willing to wait even for a year.

Ma Xu immediately shook his head: "Uncle, my major in college is biotechnology, not business administration. I want to join your company's laboratory."

"You are so stubborn that you don't even know how to enjoy the good things." Xu Ting patted her son gently, "What's so good about the laboratory? People will become stupid in it."

"Xinke Seaweed just published a heavy paper in Daxia Biological Sciences. Even our teacher said that this is another milestone in the history of human agriculture and has epoch-making significance."

"Is it so mysterious?" Xu Ting said in surprise.

"Then let me put it another way. In the future, the seaweed powder produced by my uncle's company may replace potatoes and sweet potatoes and become the new staple food."

"Seaweed powder? Can that thing be eaten as a meal?"

Xu Ting was full of doubts.

Ma Jie couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Why can't we eat it? Have you forgotten that the bread of the Coke Bakery is made with seaweed powder, and everyone eats it well?"

"Replacing the staple food is a bit exaggerated. There is still a long way to go. It may not produce results in ten or eight years. But I support Xiaoxu's choice. Although scientific research is boring, if you do it well, you can earn as much as Lingling."

"Really?" Xu Ting expressed doubt.

"Hehe, the first author of the paper Xiaoxu mentioned is a female researcher in our laboratory. As a reward, she received 0.8% of the company's shares."

Xu Dong gave an example.

"That's not much?"

Xu Ting replied subconsciously.

Ma Xu immediately reminded: "Mom, the market value of Xinke Seaweed is about to exceed 300 billion. 0.8% of the shares may not seem like much, but it's worth 2.4 billion!"

"It's actually more than 2 billion? I remember that your uncle seems to have more than 70% of the shares, right? So, isn't it 200 billion?"

Xu Ting was stunned.

Although she knew that her brother was wealthy, she never had a specific concept. Until he became the richest man, she only knew that it was worth hundreds of billions.

"You are talking about the past." Xu Dong waved his hand. "The company has introduced many strategic investors before. With my several cashing out, the current shareholding is only a little more than 26%, less than 100 billion."

"100 billion is still less?"

"Mom, don't be fooled by my uncle. The stock price of Xinke Haizao has risen sharply recently. I estimate that by the end of the year, my uncle's wealth can at least double again."

Ma Xu added immediately.

"How much is doubled again?"

"It must be more than 300 billion."

Xu Dong hurriedly said modestly: "The stock price is all fake, and I can't cash out all of it. Maybe it will fall back at any time."

"Dongzi, your sister really can't imagine that you can achieve such success today. I haven't seen how smart you are since you were a child?"

Xu Ting was puzzled.

"Maybe I am God's illegitimate child!"

Xu Dong really thinks so.

"Stop talking nonsense. I'll leave Enya's transfer to you. It's better to do it quickly."

"Okay." Xu Dong turned to look at Zhang Enya, "Enya, don't feel any psychological burden after the transfer. My uncle has connections at Sydney University. You can get in even if your scores are almost right."

"Thank you, uncle."

Ma Xu quickly pulled his wife to express his gratitude.

Zhang Enya's academic performance is not outstanding. The probability of her being admitted to a university undergraduate is only 50% to 60%. With the guarantee of her uncle, the couple finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why are you being polite to your uncle? Do you two have anything else to do? While your uncle is still here, I will help you solve it together."

"No, uncle." Ma Xu shook his head.

"Uncle." Zhang Enya suddenly said, "Can you help me sell the house at home?"

"Why sell the house? Isn't it good to keep it as a souvenir? Maybe I can come back to stay for two days in the future."

Xu Dong asked in confusion.

"No, grandma specifically asked me to sell the house before she died. After Brother Xiaoxu and I leave, she doesn't want the house to become empty. You also know that grandpa and grandma usually like to be lively..."

Zhang Enya shed tears as she spoke.

"Well, you don't have to worry about selling the house. My uncle will help you find a reliable family with many children and a clean house."

Thinking of the ordinary and uneven life of Aunt Zhang and his wife, Xu Dong decided to help Aunt Zhang realize this simple wish no matter what.

…

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Dong and his party finally embarked on their return journey.

As for Ma Xu, he will have to wait until the summer vacation for his internship, which is still more than three months away!

After returning to Sydney, Zhang Enya naturally moved into a large manor and lived with her father-in-law and mother-in-law. Their family lived on the third floor of the villa.

The eldest family lives on the second floor.

Xu Dong lives on the first floor with Xu's father and mother.

Of course, it is impossible for the two families to live in the manor forever. It is just a special situation at the moment. They will eventually have to move out when they see the light of day again.

Xu Ting and his wife bought a house years ago. Together with Tan Bangxiang's family, Lao Yang's family, and Lao Pan's family, the four families bought in the same community.

The community is not too far from the manor, only three blocks away. It is a well-known local community for civil servants. Both the public security environment and supporting facilities are first-class.

On June 7, Zhang Enya took the college entrance examination as scheduled.

Not surprisingly, the little girl did not do very well in the exam. After all, due to the death of Aunt Zhang and the subsequent transfer of schools, she had to delay a lot of classes.

Finally, with Xu Dong's help, Zhang Enya successfully obtained the admission notice from the University of Sydney.

On July 15, Ma Xu rushed to Sydney impatiently and started his internship career.

On August 23, Xinke Seaweed won the National Science and Technology Progress Special Award and was selected into the "National Foresight Plan" for three consecutive years.

On October 9, the 120th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the official held a grand military parade again after many years, which made people imagine.

On October 18, after more than two years of war, the Europa Coalition and Jusreel and other countries signed the final armistice agreement.

The two sides are bounded by the 28th parallel north.

The north belongs to the Europa Condominium and the south belongs to the newly established Persian Gulf Union.

After this battle, European countries finally obtained the oil reserves they had dreamed of for a long time, effectively ensuring their own energy security.

Two months later, Xu Dong returned to the capital on a yacht. He was going to attend the first Asia-Pacific Entrepreneurs Annual Conference and receive a series of official honorary awards.
