My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 309 Laundry

"Remember." The three brothers said in unison.

Xu Dong nodded in satisfaction.

Triplets are still rare, and the three Dabao brothers have been the focus of everyone since they entered the bathroom.

An old man next to him asked with a smile: "Brother, are these four children yours?"

It is said that a nephew looks like an uncle, and Ma Xu does look a bit like Xu Dong, so it's no wonder the uncle misunderstood him.

"The older ones are the children of my sister's family, and the three younger ones are my sons." Xu Dong was chatting with the uncle while helping the sons to take a bath.

"That's not much difference, your family's burden is not light!" The uncle sighed.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "I can't help it. I've been born, and I'm all parents. If I can't afford it, I have to raise it!"

"That's what you said, but the three babies in your family are raised really well. Look at the little arms and legs, the fleshy ones, including your nephew, how did you raise them?"

"It's very simple. I usually change to more soybeans and cook a pot of soy milk every morning. Soy milk nourishes people." Xu Dong directly took the old mother's rhetoric.

"Soymilk? It's indeed a good thing, but it's not easy to change soybeans right now." The uncle nodded, apparently accepting the statement.

"Actually, the dosage is not much, a small handful a day is enough."

"I don't know if you can still buy a soybean milk machine?"

The uncle is tempted, his grandson is as thin as a monkey, and he is really incomparable with other people's children.

Xu Dong thought for a while and replied: "There should be second-hand ones for sale online, and you can buy them for less than 1000 yuan."

"That's good, I'll get one later."

The other people nearby heard this, and they all silently remembered it in their hearts. No one has a child. In the current environment, the child's nutrition is the top priority.

In less than 15 minutes, the triplets were washed clean. Xu Dong began to wash his sons' bodies with clean water, and then asked the three brothers to put on bath towels and stand aside obediently.

After another 10 minutes, he and Ma Xu also finished washing, the five of them changed their clothes, and waited for Xu Jingyi and four in the lounge area of ​​the lobby.

After waiting for half an hour, the four came out.

"Sister, why did you take so long to wash? My uncle and I have been waiting for almost half an hour." Ma Xu couldn't help complaining.

Ma Lingling stepped forward and squeezed her brother's cheeks: "My uncle didn't say anything, why are you so anxious?"

The twins covered their mouths and giggled.

"Uncle, there are too many people in the women's bathhouse, and there are too many children, and there is still a queue, so it took some time." Xu Jingyi quickly explained.

"It's okay." Xu Dong shook his head, and then reminded: "You guys check each other to see if there is anything left behind?"

"No, Dad, I still have my watch!" Lele turned on the phone watch on her wrist.

"No, they are all there."

"Since nothing is left behind, let's go home quickly, and we have to attend the annual meeting in the afternoon!"

The annual meeting of Dad Xu's company was scheduled to start at two o'clock in the afternoon, and not all employees participated, but a voluntary principle was adopted.

The location was in a hotel near the Jinchangan Building, and Ye Hui directly rented a large banquet hall that could accommodate thousands of people at the same time.

When it comes to the annual meeting, Ke Ke looks excited: "Dad, I'm going to perform on stage this afternoon!"

Lele pursed her lips. She didn't learn the violin well, so she could only sing nursery rhymes with her brothers, which made her feel a little ashamed.

"Dad, I also have a show." Dabao shouted loudly.

"What program?"

Xu Dong pretended to be ignorant, but Yang Lina had already told him the content of the show.

"It's a small chorus, and the second sister is the lead singer. Teacher Yu helped us rehearse. Teacher Yu sang very well."

Dabao vividly narrated that the reason why Teacher Yu delayed class suspension until yesterday was mainly to rehearse this small chorus.

"Be sure to sing well, when the time comes, Mom and Dad will cheer you on." Xu Dong encouraged.

The triplets nodded earnestly.

After leaving the gate of the bathhouse, there is a laundry room opposite, and there are also a lot of people coming in and out, so Xu Dong directly sent the dirty clothes there.

For those who celebrate the New Year, it also saves my mother from doing laundry.

In order to save water, the clothes at home are basically hand-washed, and the washing powder is very little. Xu Ma spends more than an hour every day, and Xu Dong persuaded her several times to no avail.

……

When I got home, it was exactly eleven o'clock.

Xu Ma and Xu Ting came back at ten o'clock. Several women were making dumplings around the dining table. There was a New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, so the lunch was simpler.

"Grandma, we're back." The triplets yelled and rushed towards Mama Xu.

"Let grandma take a look, is it clean?"

Mama Xu raised her hands high, for fear of getting the oil on her grandchildren's clothes.

"It's clean, and my father wiped a lot of foam on us." Erbao replied.

Yang Lina smiled and asked, "Is it fun in the bathhouse?"

"It's not fun at all." Lele shook her head eagerly, "There are people everywhere, and there is a strange smell. I will never go there again."

"You are the only one who is precious?" Yang Lina scolded with a smile.

Lele ran to her father and said coquettishly, "Dad, can you buy some more water? I took a bath last night, and grandma only scooped up half a basin of water for me, and the bubbles were not rinsed off."

Mama Xu shook her head helplessly. Since the eldest family and the second family came, the daily water at home was obviously not enough, and even going out to take a bath this time was specially explained by her.

"It's Chinese New Year today, and all the water sellers are closed. Dad will go and have a look after the Chinese New Year." Xu Dong said perfunctorily with a smile.

It's not that he is reluctant to spend money, but that it is unnecessary. The water in the house should be sufficient, and there is really no need to waste it.

Anyway, after a while it will be fine.

Seeing that the whole group of people were empty-handed, only the third child was carrying a small bag, Mama Xu couldn't help asking:

"Where's your dirty clothes? Hurry up and take them out, I'll wash them for you later."

"Mom, I sent the dirty clothes to the laundry room. Here is the receipt. Go over and pick up the clothes when you have time!" Xu Dong took out the receipt from his pocket and handed it to his mother.

"The laundry is not clean, and so many clothes are washed together, it's not hygienic at all." Mama Xu complained.

Xu Ting immediately persuaded: "Mom, the laundromat is very clean, and it will also be disinfected. All the clothes in our house are washed in the laundromat, and there is no problem!"

"Sea water is easy to corrode clothes." Mama Xu quickly found another excuse.

"Mom, where did you hear all this?"

"According to what you said, washing powder is more corrosive than seawater. Besides, after washing clothes in other laundromats, they will rinse off the salt with water. You are definitely thinking too much."

"Hmph, the ones washed by hand are definitely better than the ones in the laundromat." Mother Xu insisted.

Xu Dong hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mom, washing by hand is definitely better, but aren't we afraid that you will be tired?"

"What's the matter with me being tired? Anyway, I have nothing to do all day long. Doing laundry is just like exercising."

A smile appeared on Mama Xu's face again.
