My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 18 The Lantern Festival

Xu Ting continued to analyze: "Even if only ten chain stores are opened, there will be 360 million yuan in that year, one house a year!"

"You can't buy a good house for 360 million in Yanjing, at least five or six million."

It has been almost half a year since Mother Xu came to Yanjing, and she has more contacts, and her horizons have naturally broadened a lot.

"Mom, I'm talking about buying a house in Luyang. You have always learned Versailles literature. Now it's just the two of us. As for what?" Xu Ting said helplessly.

Xu Ma was at a loss, "What is Versailles, I have never learned anything about Versailles."

"You don't need to learn this stuff, as long as you have money, you will learn without a teacher." Xu Ting teased.

"Forget it, Mom doesn't have access to the Internet, so I don't understand what you young people say."

Finally, after chatting a few more words, seeing that it was almost time, Xu Ma started to prepare dinner, and Xu Ting helped her.

At the other end, after visiting the courtyard, Dad Xu led his son-in-law to the convenience store.

Compared with the courtyard, this is his "base" and has a more sense of belonging.

"Ma Jie, despite the small size of my store, I can sell 20,000 yuan a day, and the turnover is higher than that of some medium-sized supermarkets." Dad Xu introduced enthusiastically.

"It's good, it's really good." Ma Jie has no concept of the retail industry, so he can only be vague.

Dad Xu continued to talk eloquently:

"Originally, it was planned to open the door on the fourth day of the first day. After all, the Winter Olympics opened and there were many tourists.

It's just that Dongzi insisted on taking the whole family to travel together, which resulted in a waste of several days of prime time, otherwise this month's turnover would definitely exceed 100 million. "

"Dad, Dongzi, he is filial to you two elders!" Ma Jie persuaded.

Xu Dong also echoed: "Dad, you can't make enough money, so why do you work so hard? In life, the most important thing is to have fun!"

This is a little experience he summed up through the salt pork incident.

Dad Xu gave his son-in-law face and didn't say anything else.

Otherwise, for the words "just in time", an angry reprimand is indispensable.If you were young, the sticks could be discounted.

Next, the three of them walked around the neighborhood and went back. When they got home, they happened to meet Yang Lina and her group who had returned home full of food.

Dinner didn't start until after eight o'clock in the evening, mainly considering that Xu Ting and others ate at [-]:[-] in the afternoon.

The food is very rich, more than 20 dishes are placed on a large table, there are three hot pots alone, one three-fresh ribs pot, one beef pot, and one seafood pot.

A very lively meal.

The children slapped each other and the adults exchanged cups, making Xu Dong feel that this meal was the real New Year's Eve dinner, which somewhat made up for a little regret.

However, there is no lasting feast in the world.

In the blink of an eye, it was the [-]th day of the first lunar month. Although there were too many thoughts, Xu Ting and her party had to leave.

Before leaving, Mother Xu took her daughter aside and slipped her a bank card secretly.

"There is 100,000 yuan in the card, you should quickly take it out later and put it in your card."

Xu Ting was taken aback, and quickly evaded, "Mom, what are you doing? The 100,000 yuan that Dongzi owed me has already been paid back."

"I know." Xu's mother forced the bank card into her daughter's bag and explained, "This is a subsidy from your father and I to you, and I also wrapped a big red envelope over Jingyi."

"But……"

"Don't worry, this money was originally intended to subsidize the Dongzi family, and you know the situation at that time.

But your brother's family is not short of money now; your eldest brother has only one daughter, Jingyi, and the burden is light; if your family has a heavy burden, you can accept it. The password is your birthday. "

This statement made Xu Ting's eyes turn red. Her own economic conditions can't be said to be poor, but it's just average.

In addition, the two children have to go to college and buy a house for their son, and the burden is indeed getting heavier and heavier.

"Thank you, Mom!" Xu Ting wiped away her tears.

"Thank you, Mom, I hope you are all well, and your life will be safe and smooth."

After sending away the old sister's family and the eldest niece, as the Lantern Festival approached, Xu Dong's whole person became more and more calm.

The mountains and the rain are about to come, the wind is full of buildings, and the sky is about to change!

……

The Great Summer Calendar is February 2022, 2, the fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar, the day of the Lantern Festival.

At seven in the morning, Xu Dong got up on time as usual, and took a hot shower.

Get dressed and freshen up.

He first glanced at the triplets, the three little ones were sleeping soundly.

Quietly exiting the bedroom, Xu Dong came to the kitchen immediately, where Xu Ma and Yang Lina had already made breakfast.

Breakfast is rice porridge, a plate of tea eggs, fresh milk, a few stir-fries, and fried dough sticks bought from outside.

Dad Xu was sitting at the dining table, brushing his phone and drinking porridge. It seemed that he had almost eaten.

"Dad, today's Lantern Festival, do you want the store to take a day off?" After Xu Dong finished speaking, he took a sip of the sweet rice porridge.

Dad Xu frowned and refused without hesitation, "The store is full of old customers, how can you say that it will close when it closes, since we call it a convenience store, we should put the word 'convenience' at the top... "

"Here again." Xu Dong secretly said.

After a while, Dad Xu put down his chopsticks, took the leather hat handed over by Mommy Xu, turned around and went to work at the convenience store.

Since Xu Dong began to go to the countryside to receive goods, the old man usually takes the bus to and from get off work, which is only two stops away, which is very convenient.

When Xu Dong finished eating, the Coco sisters finally got up, and Xu Dong was not idle, and skillfully tied their braids.

As for Xu Ma and Yang Lina, they are waiting for the triplets to get up at this time.

After breakfast, Xu Dong first strolled around the convenience store, and then went to the nearby farmers market to shop for some farm products that were not available in the warehouse.

At [-]:[-] at noon, Liu Zidong from Xu Jie came back with a small truck, and brought some snacks for the two girls along the way.

We ate hot pot for lunch. Mother Xu cut five or six kilograms of donkey meat, and added a large pot of hot vegetables. The family ate heartily.

In the afternoon, Xu Dong chose a boutique supermarket and pulled back half a truckload of vegetables and fruits directly from their warehouse.

The shelf life of fresh food is short, and this is the best time to purchase.

Seeing that Xu Dong was unloading the goods again, Xu Ma had long been accustomed to it, and just asked casually, "What did you buy?"

"Vegetables and fruits will be sold in the store tomorrow."

"Isn't it delivered directly to the store before?"

Xu Dong made up a reason on the spot, "This time it's a new supplier, and it's a high-end fresh product. I'll bring a batch back to test the water first."

Xu Ma became interested as soon as she heard it, went forward and fiddled with the vegetable leaves a few times, and praised: "It's really good, it looks like water."

"Mom, why don't you try these dishes at night, try the taste, and see if they taste good?" Xu Dong suggested.

"Okay, then I'll pick a few more."
