Chapter 68: Toad wants to eat swan meat

Ningcheng Military Region Nursing Home.

The old man of the Xia family was sitting at the coffee table in the living room studying the end game. Guard Chief Liang Sheng came out of the study: "Mr. Xia, Deputy Director Wu from the Public Security Department called."

Mr. Xia pinched the chess piece in his hand without looking away from the chessboard: "Didn't I just get a call a while ago? He asked me if my leg was broken. He really didn't expect me to get better at all. Did you say anything about this time?

What is it for?"

Liang Sheng shook his head: "No, but it sounds like the person coming here is evil, so it shouldn't be a good thing."

Mr. Xia chuckled and stood up on crutches. Seeing this, Liang Sheng hurriedly came up to help him, but the old man motioned not to use it: "I'm not old enough to walk."

The old leader spoke, but Liang Sheng did not dare to disobey and could only follow behind to help at any time. Mr. Xia's body was indeed strong, but a piece of shrapnel remaining in his right leg was stuck in the bone seam and could not be removed. It still tortured Xia

I can't walk normally anymore.

After coming to the study and sitting down, Mr. Xia picked up the phone receiver and put it to his ear: "I am Xia Quanzhang."

"Mr. Xia, your precious granddaughter is really good at it."

Before answering the phone just now, Mr. Xia had roughly guessed Wu Xuewen's purpose. Now that he heard the other party's opening remarks, he was not too surprised.

"Why did my Xiaoyan offend your grandson?"

On the phone, Wu Xuewen poured Xia Yan a basin of cold water from top to bottom and told Wu Jinkang a heart-breaking story. Then he laughed dryly: "My little brat came back with a high fever yesterday and is still lying in bed unable to get up.

Woolen cloth."

Mr. Xia also replied with a laugh: "Xiaoyan's temper is a little too big. This is all because I have spoiled her since she was a child. In addition, she has such a clear-cut character of love and hate. If your grandson really can't stand it, don't

Isn’t it enough to just go and provoke her?”

Wu Xuewen originally planned to use a slightly stronger attitude to make Mr.

The idea was completely different, so he could only lower his attitude: "Mr.

I have come to say this for him twice. You see, if our two families become in-laws, no one will humiliate the other. It can be said that we are well matched. As for my grandson, he has indeed done some ridiculous things in the past, but he is the so-called prodigal son.

There is no money in exchange for turning back, I guarantee that if Xia Yan can really get married, our Wu family will never let her suffer any injustice."

"As old people, we shouldn't have too much control over the love affairs between children. I'm old and can't take care of that. What's more, things are different from the past. In the past, parents' orders were important.

What the matchmaker said, who cares about these young people nowadays? Our family advocates free love for the younger generation. If your kid is really serious, then go for it. But I heard that she already has a partner. This is so dirty and ruins other people's feelings.

It’s better to do less.”

The meaning of what Mr.

If you pester too much, you can call it shameless.

The two exchanged a few insincere words. The moment Mr. Xia hung up the phone, he snorted coldly: "Who in Ningcheng doesn't know what the eldest grandson of the Wu family is like? A toad wants to eat swan meat."

As the saying goes, a person's nature is hard to change, so how did Wu Jinkang get sent abroad three years ago? Wasn't he caught bullying a beautiful girl and sent to the police station? He turned back the prodigal, so he didn't want to put money on his face.

After cursing a few words, Mr. Xia seemed to still feel that it was not enough, so he called Liang Sheng and warned: "Go and tell Xia Yan, just say it was grandpa who said it. Next time, that kid will bother her and pour hot water on her.

"

Liang Sheng nodded and said, "Do you need someone to ask about the man named Tang Shu in Jiangcheng?"

It is an ordinary thing for young people to have sex. As long as they don't do anything extraordinary, most parents' reaction is to let nature take its course. Over-involvement at home may have the opposite effect, but the Xia family is not ordinary.

People, if the relationship between Xia Yan and Tang Shu is stable and they finally come to the point of discussing marriage, Tang Shu must pass the examination and pass the examination.

Now that the two have just started to be together, if it is found that there is something wrong with Tang Shu, they can correct it in time.

"No need." Mr. Xia waved his hand, "I believe that girl Xiaoyan's taste is not that bad. Moreover, Changping also said that he knows the boy and thinks highly of him. If he can really deceive Xiaoyan,

It's his ability to get around in circles, just treat it as a lesson and gain wisdom. Young people only know pain when they make mistakes."

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for the Xia family to let Xia Yan make any principled mistakes.

Facts also proved that Xia Yan and Tang Shu had no chance to make any mistakes. The distance between the two was more than a hundred kilometers. No matter how long Tang Shu's hand was, he could not reach half of Xia Yan's hair. Besides,

He went back to school to audit after the Spring Festival. Now he was squeezed by the Chinese teacher and had no time to breathe. Even writing a letter to Xia Yan had to be secretive. He had no time to go to Ningcheng to find her.

In order to allow students to complete the final period of sprint unscrupulously, County No. 1 Middle School took the lead in implementing a late self-study system for graduating classes, which made Tang Shu, who originally had little rest time, even more devastated.

Last year, Xia Yan and Gu Manzhi lived at home. Their role was to share some housework. Gu Manzhi's cooking skills were quite good. In just half a year, both Tang Qing and Tang Yu gained a lot of weight.

Now there are only three people left, and they are all students. Tang Qing's studies are not easy. The remaining Tang Yu is just a half-year-old child. It is okay for her to light the stove and cook a pot of rice occasionally, but cooking is not good at all.

Yes, so Tang Shu and Tang Qing do all the cooking together.

Now that Tang Shu can't come home at night, all the shopping and cooking falls on Tang Qing's shoulders. What's the difference between this and an old woman?

Although Tang Qing said it was nothing, Tang Shu refused. If it couldn't be done, he would eat out for all three meals. Now that he had the income from the farm tools factory, there would be no pressure on the restaurant in the next few years.

It's a pity that the basic set meal of the state-owned restaurants in the county is one dish and one soup, and each consumption starts with one yuan. There is no such business as filling up the stomach by ordering two bowls of noodles alone. In addition, the two sisters are going in the opposite direction of going home from school, let alone

If she was willing to go, the prices at private snack bars weren't much lower. Calculating that a meal for three people per month would cost at least nearly 20 yuan, Tang Qing couldn't bear to part with it no matter what.

Just when Tang Shu didn't know how to solve the problem of feeding a family of three, a familiar figure appeared in his field of vision again.

When school was over in the afternoon, Sun Guiying pulled a cart and appeared at the gate of the County No. 1 Middle School. He opened the cloth on the cart and found several baskets of sesame cakes inside. The golden surface was sprinkled with sesame seeds, and they looked good.

, but it was a pity that it was cold when it was brought over, which resulted in a bad taste, so not many students patronized it.

Tang Shu went over and bought two and ate them while chatting with Sun Guiying. When asked why she didn't go to work at Jiangcheng Agricultural Tools Factory, a trace of loneliness flashed in Sun Guiying's eyes: "Oh, it's not just Lao Tian's trouble, the workshop

The place is full of gossip about how much money Lao Tian has cheated the factory, and that everyone has not been paid bonuses for several years. In short, I really can’t stay any longer.”

"Then you plan to sell sesame cakes here?" As he spoke, Tang Shu choked on the dried sesame cakes and rolled his eyes. "I'm telling the truth, auntie, don't scold me. The freshly made ones will definitely be delicious. Let them cool down before you bring them over."

, it really doesn’t work.”

Sun Guiying let out a long sigh. Of course she knew that freshly made sesame cakes are softer and crispier and more delicious, but she didn't have anything to move around. She could only make them at home and sell them. Even with a set of tools, she couldn't move them.

, it was blocked by people from the management office, and it was definitely confiscated.
