"Dundun, which one is your luggage?"
Driving to the farmer's restaurant, Lin Xu and Shen Jiayue saw several suitcases placed in the yard. Dundun, who was wearing a red sweater, was sitting on a small trolley suitcase co-branded with Minions, waiting silently.
Hearing Shen Jiayue's question, Dundun proudly patted the Minion suitcase at his feet.
Chen Meijuan bought this when she went shopping in the city two days ago. It contains Dundun's little toys and its friends, as well as a new teething stick and so on.
The kitten now eats meat every day and almost never chews bones.
Teeth will degrade over time, so you should buy some teething sticks made of bones to allow cats to exercise their teeth’s biting force, so that their bodies will be healthier.
Lin Xu opened the trunk and put several large suitcases upright in the back. He also placed a pile of stones picked up by Shen Guofu and the piece of jade that Dun Dun dug out in the corner, and stuffed foam around them.
, ensure it does not scroll.
With such a large rock, if you encounter sudden braking on the way, the inertia is not a joke, so you must protect it well.
But thinking about Dundun in the car, there should be no emergency braking.
After all, this little guy's heaven-defying ability has far exceeded the scope of a fortune-seeking artifact. He feels that he is on an equal footing with the system, and he doesn't know why the system sent him to him.
There is another plug-in for nothing.
After placing the stones, he placed the small suitcase on the back seat, then picked up the little guy and walked towards the restaurant:
"Let's go after dinner. Don't worry. You'll have to carry your cat's litter box to the car later. There's a lot to do."
I didn’t expect this little guy to be so eager to leave. Is he tired of staying here and want to change places?
Entering the restaurant, Chen Meijuan smiled and picked up the little guy and held her in her arms:
"Just now I joked with Dundun that we would not let it go today and let it live in the scenic spot. Then it sat outside with an aggrieved look on its face and refused to come inside for fear of leaving it here..."
p>
No wonder you are sitting outside alone, you are afraid of being left behind?
Lin Xu rubbed its head and said:
"Grandma is joking with you. Stop being angry and kiss grandma."
Dundun reluctantly rubbed Chen Meijuan's face twice. Chen Meijuan was so happy that she hugged the little guy tightly and said:
"You are just like a child. You have to be good, little baby. Your grandparents will go to the capital to visit you in a while and they will bring you delicious food."
Upon hearing this, Dundun rubbed Chen Meijuan twice.
Han Shuzhen said with a smile:
"Dundun is very smart and easy to learn. Every time I play the piano, she sits around and listens quietly. It feels like she understands."
Chen Meijuan tightened her arms around the little baby:
"I'm sure you can understand. Our Dundun is so smart, he's like an elf relegated to the human world."
Breakfast has been prepared and is very rich. My eldest aunt and my second aunt are also here. After all, the relatives are going back today, so they have to give them away. This is the rule of the family.
Chen Meijuan said:
"There is a can of watermelon bean paste and a can of spicy cabbage pickled yesterday in the kitchen for you, but it will take a few days before you can eat it, so we can't eat it now."
Lin Xu didn't care about the spicy cabbage yesterday after killing it. When Chen Meijuan felt that it was about the same, she squeezed out the water, washed it again to wash away the salt, squeezed out the water again, and wiped the mixed chili lake layer by layer.
Into the cabbage.
Spread evenly and put it into a jar for sealed fermentation.
After one week, the sour and refreshing spicy cabbage will be ready to eat.
Lin Xu didn't expect that his mother would even pack some spicy cabbage for him. Although he could always go to Diaoyutai and ask for it from Yuan Debiao, the executive chef in Building 8, if he wanted.
This head chef who specializes in Northeastern cuisine is excellent at both kimchi and spicy cabbage.
"Okay, I'll move it to the car after dinner."
Lin Xu did not refuse. After all, this was her mother's wish. She would take whatever she was given to make her happier. If she was given nothing, her mother would probably feel uncomfortable for many days.
After sitting down, Lin Xu picked up a hollow steamed bun, put two slices of pickled pork with pickled vegetables inside, and started eating it.
We have to drive for a long time today, so we need to eat well so as not to go hungry on the way.
Although there is food and drink in the service area, during the peak period of influenza, we should try not to eat or drink in the service area, go in and out quickly, and leave after using the toilet and buying water.
Only in this way can you ensure your own safety to the greatest extent.
Shen Jiayue ate the sweet potato balls freshly fried by Chen Meijuan in the morning and said with a look of surprise:
"It's crispy and sweet, and the sweet potato puree inside seems to flow in your mouth. The fried balls are so delicious."
Although I never stopped eating sweet potato balls during the Chinese New Year, except for the crispy skinned balls on the day they were fried, the rest were steamed.
Put the meatballs into a bowl, sprinkle a handful of white sugar on the surface, and steam them in the steamer for half an hour.
When I took it out again, the sugar had already melted and hung on the surface of the meatballs, and the meatballs were so soft that I needed a spoon to scoop them up.
It tastes sweet and delicious.
But after eating too many steamed sweet potato balls, and then eating these freshly fried ones, it feels like eating two delicacies.
Chen Meijuan said:
"If you like to eat, eat more. When you get to the capital, you can ask Xiaoxu to fry it for you. If he doesn't fry it, call me and I will teach him a lesson."
"Haha, thank you, Mom!"
Shen Jiayue, who received Shang Fang's sword, was full of joy.
But Xubao is so good, I won’t complain.
Lin Hongqi took a bite of braised goose intestines and said to Lin Xu:
"I read the news in the morning and it said that today is the peak period for returning to Beijing. There are many cars on the road. Many people travel long distances just once a year. They are inexperienced. You should pay attention. It is better to wait for three minutes than to rush for a second."<
/p>
"I will."
Lin Xu looked at Dundun, who was squatting next to the charcoal stove and eating foie gras. No matter where he went from now on, he would take the little guy with him whenever he traveled far.
There was an advertising slogan in the past that said buying insurance means buying peace. My own operation should be called "bringing success" to bringing luck.
With luck, you should be able to avoid ordinary car accidents.
Shen Guofu said:
"We will arrive at about noon. Xiaoyan has already said that she will pick us up at the high-speed rail station. When you arrive, just go directly to the West Fourth Ring Villa. Have a meal first, take a breath, and then go back."
The nanny at home has already gone to work and should be cleaning the house now.
Han Shuzhen has already arranged for cooking, and also prepared food for her daughter and son-in-law.
They are so tired from driving, so they are not allowed to go back to the store. They are already exhausted, and they still have to maintain the attitude of the boss. Isn't this just a hassle?
It's better to go home, put on your slippers, have a comfortable meal, and rest on the sofa for a while, how comfortable it is.
Lin Xu agreed and said he remembered.
He really didn't plan to go to the store today.
Because the red envelopes for everyone are not ready yet, it would be quite embarrassing if I went there empty-handed.
It would be more appropriate to go to the store on the morning of the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, when everyone will receive a New Year's red envelope and say a few words of encouragement to arouse the enthusiasm of the employees.
After the meal, the relatives also said a lot of farewell words.
Lin Hongqi said:
"You and Yueyue can just drive away. I'll drive to the high-speed rail station later."
Lin Xu agreed and went to the kitchen to load the various foods prepared by Chen Meijuan into the car, as well as a large can of dried fish.
These dried fish can be stored for a long time. Even if the moisture returns, just put them in the oven and bake them again.
When everything was ready, Lin Xu carried Dundun to the car and put his litter box on top. Although the little guy rarely went to the toilet during the trip, it was better to be prepared.
Anyway, the rear seats are spacious enough, and a cat litter box on the floor is more than enough.
After putting it away, he said goodbye to his grandmother and relatives. Chen Meijuan handed Shen Jiayue a bag filled with various snacks. The young couple got in the car and drove away from the scenic spot under the instructions of their relatives.
"Xubao, when will we come back next time?"
"Soon, I'll have to come when the weather gets warmer."
Both main quests require three months. Based on the current day, the deadline will be Qingming Festival at the latest. The racecourse should have opened by then, so a trip is really needed.
When the time comes, we will find a way to get to the top ten hot searches, and let the farm-style restaurant in charge of my second uncle serve ten perfect dishes. Then the task will be completed.
Shen Jiayue immediately became fascinated:
"When the spring comes, the flowers will bloom, let's take Dundun to explore the end of the valley?"
"Okay, I haven't really been there. I just want to go and have a look. If Dundun pulls out another piece of jade, wouldn't it be profitable again?"
Driving to the highway intersection, Lin Xu pulled over and stopped.
Take off your down jacket first. The warm air in the car is a bit hot, so it’s not appropriate to wear a down jacket. It’s more comfortable to wear a sweater alone. By the way, adjust the navigation.
Although the route has been memorized, if you turn on the navigation, you can know in advance whether there will be traffic jams ahead, etc. This way, you can have a pre-judgement and drive safer.
Shen Jiayue also took off her down jacket and wore a white turtleneck sweater. She was currently eating the dried pumpkins and sweet potatoes she made yesterday.
Restarting the car, Lin Xu passed through the expressway toll station from the etc lane, then turned onto the ramp to the capital. When he turned onto the expressway, he increased his speed and merged into the traffic flow.
】
Shen Jiayue pinched a piece of dried sweet potato and put it into Lin Xu's mouth, and then started to pull the bag:
"Wow, our mother bought a lot of food, including dried apricots, dried plums, dried mangoes, spicy strips, sliced cakes, air-dried beef, tangerine peel sugar, buns, cookies, rock sugar oranges, bananas, soda water, iced
Coke...and a small box of washed Qingwang grapes, isn't that so thoughtful?"
Sour, sweet, spicy, staple food, fruits, drinks...the preparations were so complete that Shen Jiayue couldn't help but feel warm in her heart. She deserves to be the best mother-in-law in the world!
She took out a rock candy orange, peeled off the outer skin, then peeled off the white tendons on it, stuffed a piece into Lin Xu's mouth, and ate another piece herself.
The oranges should have been chilled. It’s really refreshing to have a slice of them in the warm wind blowing in the car.
"Xubao, just tell me what you want to eat. I have everything here, which is more comprehensive than the school canteen."
Lin Xu said:
"You eat first and don't worry about me."
Less than half an hour after putting down the tachyon, Lin Xu couldn't eat anything at the moment.
He is not a greedy person to begin with, and since he has been eating well recently, he doesn’t have much interest in snacks.
Shen Jiayue, on the other hand, tastes a grape now and eats a spicy stick now, her mouth is never idle, and occasionally she even takes photos and sends them to the group:
"We have already set off. When we were getting in the car, my mother-in-law prepared a little food for me. It was really just a little bit."
Chen Yan made a contemptuous expression:
"Smelly Yueyue has upgraded from showing affection to showing mother-in-law. It is really unreasonable."
Zeng Xiaoqi said:
"You can show off, too. After all, you and your mother-in-law almost married Jinlan, and we actually envy this even more."
Chen Yan: "..."
Damn it, whose employee are you?
Turn your elbows outward, do you still want this year’s bonus?
On the other side, Lin Hongqi drove the Range Rover given to him by Shen Jiayue and slowly parked in the parking lot at the entrance of Yinzhou East Station. Shen Guofu, who was in the passenger seat, smiled and said:
"Yueyue is very discerning. This car is nice."
He is now obsessed with SUVs. After a round of comparisons, he finally plans to buy the Maxari Big G. Compared with other models, the Big G looks the most pleasing to the eye and is the most comfortable.
Pushing the door and getting out of the car, Chen Meijuan and Han Shuzhen were helping Mrs. Shen get out of the car.
The big white car door at the back opened, and Chen Meiliang, Lin Hongjun, and Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Chen also came.
When sending junior out, just say "just be careful on the road" at the door.
But for relatives of the same generation, it would be a bit rude to do this, not to mention that there are elders around, so naturally they have to be sent to the high-speed rail station.
Mrs. Lin handed the prepared food to Han Shuzhen:
"Shu Zhen, here are some snacks. Bring them to the car for your mother-in-law to eat."
"Okay, take care of yourself. We'll come back next time you're on vacation."
"Come, come all, we are always welcome."
On the roadside next to him, Shen Guofu lit the remaining half of the cigar in the morning and said to Chen Meiliang:
"Second brother, we should recruit people here and spend the money as we should. We are doing business. How can we do it without spending money to set up a business? I will work hard when I go back and try to recruit more people from the capital racecourse.
Just watch and close it when the time comes."

"I know... When the spring warms up, we will prepare to find the evaluation team for acceptance. Then you and Mr. Yan will come over. After all, you are the boss."
"No problem, we will come to Yinzhou together then... By the way, there is an airport in Yinzhou, right?"
"Yes, but there are not many flights."
"It doesn't matter if it's more or less. When the time comes, I'll charter a business jet. Although taking the high-speed rail for four hours is nothing, I can still save some time. When the time comes, I'll take Xiaoxu Yueyue and Dundun on a high-end charter flight."<
/p>
Pets are not allowed on airplanes or high-speed trains, but charter flights are. Even for the pets of wealthy people, charter companies have specially set up pet charter programs.
However, not many pets can enjoy this kind of treatment.
Shen Guofu felt that if Dundun helped him win the order from Yan Lin and became her strategic partner, it would be worthy of a charter flight.
It's time for the little one to experience what it's like to fly in the clouds.
I don’t know if it will make me tremble with fear, but I’m looking forward to it just thinking about it.
After talking about this, he put out the cigar in his hand, threw it into the cigarette butt box in the trash can next to him, carried the food and drink supplies prepared by his in-laws, and walked towards the high-speed rail station.
The others followed and saw each other off, and when they arrived at the entrance, both parties waved goodbye.
When he came to the waiting room, he saw that Mrs. Shen looked a little sad. Shen Guofu comforted her and said:
"It's still cold now. Let's wait until it gets warmer. Then Shuzhen and I will send you here. You might as well stay here for a while longer."
Compared with the plains, summer in the mountains is quite cool.
Especially during the hot summer months, Beijing is located in the North China Plain and often suffers from heat waves.
When the time comes, I will live in the mountains. It will be cool, and I will be accompanied by old people of the same age. If I want to play cards, I can call someone at any time. It will be much better than living alone in a courtyard in the capital.
Mrs. Shen was really moved and said:
"When it gets warm in spring, I don't need you to send me. I'll just do it myself."
Shen Guofu smiled:
"Okay, ok, ok, I didn't expect you to feel more angry after visiting relatives."
But I promise, I will definitely have to follow you when the time comes, but you can’t let the old lady ride in the car alone. There are everyone in society now, and my old lady is famous for her kindness, so it’s better not to take this risk.<
/p>
At noon, a group of people came out of the high-speed rail station and saw Chen Yan waiting at the exit.
Well, Mr. Chen has been visiting the high-speed rail station so frequently recently that even the man at the toll booth in the parking lot knows her.
Seeing his uncle and aunt, Mr. Chen waved enthusiastically and strode to the turnstile. As soon as Mrs. Shen came out, she greeted her with a smile:
"Grandma, where's my New Year's money? Without you to help me keep my age down, I wouldn't look like an eighteen-year-old anymore."
Mrs. Shen smiled and took out two thick red envelopes and gave them to her granddaughter:
"My Yanyan is always young and beautiful. This is the New Year's money given to you by grandma. This share belongs to Xiaojie. You can give it to him for me. He is so busy every day. Let him pay attention to his health and don't become a tiger just because he is young.
Damn it."
"Yeah, I can do it, grandma."
Shen Guofu walked out of the turnstile, looked at this scene and said:
"People say that wealth should not be revealed, but you two are so good at giving out red envelopes in public like this... Let's go back first. I will give you the new year's money when you get home. I have already prepared it for you."
Chen Yan has liked to act coquettishly in front of her grandma since she was a child, but she never dared to act like a baby in front of her uncle and aunt.
When Shen Guofu criticized her just now, she thought she would be scolded today.
But when I heard the second half, saying that the New Year's money was ready, my heart was filled with joy again.
Han Shuzhen said:
"The nature of Xiaojie's profession makes it inappropriate to give money, so we changed the form... Let's go home first and then we'll talk about it later."
The group came to the parking lot and got into Chen Yan’s Panamera.
More than half an hour later, the car slowly stopped at the door of the West Fourth Ring Villa.
Aunt Liu and several other nannies came out. Han Shuzhen took out several red envelopes from her bag and gave them to everyone one by one.
This is prepared in the car. It is auspicious for the New Year and will also make the nannies work harder.
Arriving at the villa, lunch was ready. Chen Yan put on her slippers and picked up a pair of slippers for Mrs. Shen to put on. She was busy working when Shen Guofu handed over two collection gold bars with the zodiac sign of rabbit engraved on them.
p>
Both gold bars were 999 grams, which were quite heavy. Chen Yan received them with some surprise. She didn't expect that the new year's money would actually be upgraded to gold bars.
She smiled and said:
"Thank you uncle, thank you aunt!"
"Thank you. Let's go and have dinner...Sister Liu, Xiaoxu and Yueyue will arrive at about three or four o'clock. They have prepared the food in advance, and they have breakfast. They are probably going to be starving."
Han Shuzhen explained and helped Mrs. Shen to the restaurant for dinner.
But this explanation is a bit redundant, because Shen Jiayue made the mistake of underestimating the enemy yesterday again - she was full!
"I shouldn't drink Coca-Cola. I'm so irritated and it all comes back as soon as I drink it."
Lin Xu, who was driving, opened his mouth. He felt that from the time he got in the car until now, even if there was no Coke, he should... forget it, after all, he is his wife, so he would not complain.
He smiled and said:
"There is a service area ten kilometers ahead. Let's go in, get off the car, and walk around. It's just a good time to move your body. It's really not good to sit like this all the time."
Shen Jiayue's eyes lit up, this is a good suggestion.
Soon, we arrived at the service area.
The two of them got off the bus with Dundun in their arms, and went to the restroom first, then walked around the service area with Dundun in their arms, bypassing the trolley area with limited height poles in front, and arrived at the back of the service area.
There are many trucks parked here, and there are also several RVs with large foreheads, which look quite impressive.
Shen Jiayue is interested:
"Hey, this RV looks very good, Xu Bao, do you think that if we buy an RV later, we won't have to work so hard to drive back to Yinzhou?"
Lin Xu smiled:
"It's really not that hard. You can sleep on the way, but there are not many places in Beijing suitable for RV parking, at least not in our community. In addition, various height restrictions and other things are quite troublesome, so forget it."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
It’s not appropriate to buy an RV, at least it’s not cost-effective.
Now I don’t plan to transform into a travel blogger. I will just get ashes if I buy it, which doesn’t mean much.
But in the future, I can buy an RV and travel around the country, like Master, walking around and absorbing the culture and inheritance of local food.
After making a circle, the two of them continued driving.
It wasn’t until 4:10 in the afternoon that we arrived at the West Fourth Ring Villa.
As soon as I got off the bus, Chen Yan came over to greet me:
"Dundun, my aunt is here to give you lucky money."
She held a thick big red envelope and placed it on Dundun's head. The little guy wandered around the lake in the car, and Chen Yan's actions immediately shocked him.
He raised his paws and was about to open the heavy thing when he accidentally spotted money. The little guy immediately put away his paws and his patting action became a pressing motion.
He pressed the red envelope tightly to his head, for fear of falling.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it turns out this little fat cat is a money addict."
Chen Yan took it, held Dundun in her arms, and whispered in its ear:
"Don't give this money to your mother. She said she was saving it for you, but she actually spent it on herself."
Dundun: "!!!!!!!!!"
Is there such a trick?
You have to be careful about that.
Lin Xu opened the back door and together with Shen Jiayue took down the luggage of his father-in-law, mother-in-law and Mrs. Shen.
Walking into the door of the villa, Han Shuzhen, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, said:
"We're finally here. Are you hungry along the way? Sister Liu, prepare the food. Xiaoxu and Yueyue are about to eat... Dundun, what are you covering your head for?"
Chen Yan said with a smile:
"The little guy clutched the New Year's money given to him very tightly."
Han Shuzhen looked dumbfounded:
"How long are you going to hold this in? Give it to your mother and ask her to keep it for you."
When Dundun heard this, she covered her head even tighter.
The little guy didn't let go until Lin Xu asked him to put it into the Minion's suitcase.
Arriving at the restaurant, just as he was about to sit down to eat, Ren Jie came over in advance to change his shift.
After entering the door, before he even bothered to say hello, Dundun stopped in front of him.
The little guy squatted down, raised one paw, and made a rubbing motion.
Others have given New Year's money, so this uncle-in-law whom I personally appointed should also express his gratitude.
Dundun has become accustomed to collecting new year's money recently, so when she saw Ren Jie, she asked for it directly.
But Ren Jie, who had been working for the whole day, was so obsessed that he didn't understand Dundun's meaning at all. Instead, he was more interested in rubbing his hands.
He smiled and asked Dundun:
"Are you going to... rob the police?"
