Xue Ling laughed and asked: "How about you go to the WeChat group and shout? Just shout what you just said one more time?"
Cheng Tianyuan glanced at her, turned and walked away.
Xue Ling chuckled and leaned over to continue teasing Xiao Zhu, who was sitting on the carpet.
After a while, Wang Xiaoxiao came with Xiaoshuang in his arms, his face full of sadness and irritability.
Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Wang Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly: "Mom, I just got on the scale... Woohoo! I gained another five pounds!"
Xue Ling looked at her slightly stronger body and smiled sheepishly.
"It's only five kilograms, not too much, not too much."
Wang Xiaoxiao almost cried and explained: "Mom, I gained nine kilograms last month! This month is not even halfway through, and I have already gained five kilograms! No! I can't keep gaining weight like this! I'm almost there
One hundred and fifty pounds!"
Xue Ling made a sound of "Eh" and reassured: "Don't worry, don't be afraid. You are tall and have a large frame. Even if you weigh 150 pounds, you don't look very fat. You can be considered plump at most."
"Mom! I really can't get fat anymore!" Wang Xiaoxiao said with a heart: "From today on, I have to go on a diet!"
Xue Ling asked curiously: "Don't you often swim and exercise? Just exercise to lose weight. Dieting is very hard."
There are two dedicated chefs in the family, and the three meals a day are filled with exquisite and delicious dishes. There are also a variety of fresh and refreshing snacks in the morning and afternoon, plus imported fruits and supplements fed at regular intervals.
In such an atmosphere surrounded by delicious food, it’s even harder to go on a diet!
Wang Xiaoxiao explained bitterly: "I know it's hard, but I have to do it this way. Now I exercise and run every day, and I feel hungry after running. But there are a lot of delicious food at home, and I eat all kinds of things when I'm hungry.
, in the end there is really no other choice but to gain weight.”
She placed her little pair on the carpet and threw a small rattle to her.
"Yangyang has been working overtime every day recently. He goes out early in the morning and fails to come back from time to time in the evening. But he can still see that I have gained weight again, so he very politely tells me to go on the scale. He will work overtime until the express company stops operating.
I guess he won't be able to come back in five or six days. I have to take this opportunity to diet and exercise, and I can't let him see a lump of fat as soon as he comes back!"
Xue Ling said "uh" and nodded.
"That's okay. I asked Lao Li and the others not to make too many snacks and prepare less dinner."
Wang Xiaoxiao hurriedly thanked me: "Yes, yes! Don't tempt me with too many delicious foods! I have already contacted the nutritionist. I only eat a little breakfast, fruit and whole grains for lunch, a little whole grains for dinner, and then nothing else."
No. Mom, don’t prepare our share of dinner until Yangyang comes back. Also, I can’t eat with you in the morning and noon, I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist the temptation of food.”
Xue Ling couldn't help but warn: "Don't be too hungry. Good health is more important than anything else."
"Mom, don't worry." Wang Xiaoxiao laughed dumbly: "I used to be a professional athlete, and I have been with nutritionists and trainers for a long time. I have learned a lot over the years."
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Xue Ling could only support her with actions.
"There is fruit at home every day. You can make your own arrangements if you want to eat whatever you want."
Wang Xiaoxiao answered quickly.
Therefore, Xue Yang did not come home after working overtime, and Wang Xiaoxiao did not dare to come to the big dining room to eat. The originally empty dining table became even more deserted, with only two old people and Cheng Tianyuan and his wife left.
Xue's father had a hard time swallowing the food and asked, "Should Xiaoxiao eat with the nanny and the others?"
"No." Xue Ling replied: "Xiaoxiao has lost weight. She has to arrange her own meals for a while. The nanny and nanny have a large kitchen and can prepare the food themselves, just like the bodyguards and security guards."
Mother Xue looked around and suddenly lost all appetite.
"The four of us are sitting in such a big place, and we can't even occupy a small corner of the table. Alas... this home is becoming more and more deserted."
Xue’s father couldn’t help comforting him: “Don’t rush, don’t rush, the Chinese New Year will be here in about ten days, and everyone will be back by then, and it will definitely be lively. Also, I’ll call Zhilan later to ask him
The two of them come to eat when they have time."
"I..." Mother Xue couldn't help but regret it, and whispered: "If we didn't force ourselves to go on a blind date, he would at least be willing to live at home. Morning and evening, he would have dinner together by himself, which would make it a little more lively. Also,
The third child has not been back for more than two months."
Father Xue was speechless for a moment and turned to look at his daughter and son-in-law.
Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "Mom, it's none of your and dad's business. The children themselves are not at fault. You worry so much about them. It's okay if they don't know how to be grateful. You must not blame yourself."
After saying this, he secretly gave Xue Ling a wink.
Xue Ling quickly changed the subject and said: "The garden at my hometown in Chengjiacun is almost half finished. After the design plan is finalized, the construction will begin to speed up. It is expected to be completed early next summer."
"Oh." Dad Xue reminded again: "Remember, you have to have more flowers and plants."
Xue Ling nodded: "The design plan takes into account that there are flowers and trees in every corner, plus two sports venues and some children's play facilities. Flowers and grass are easy to arrange, and the combination of grass and flowers takes up most of the land. But after the trees are moved in, it will not
It may return to lush foliage all at once, but it will have to grow slowly year by year, and it will take about two or three years to become green again."
"It's okay, take your time." Xue's mother reminded: "You have to hire some professional gardeners. Don't just hire a few who don't know how to take care of flowers and plants. It's a waste of wages, but don't waste your little life."
Cheng Tianyuan raised his eyebrows and reacted belatedly.
"Originally, I planned to hire some people of the same age in their 50s and 60s to work in the village. I didn't know who to hire at the beginning. I just wanted to increase the employment rate in the village a little bit. After my mother said this, I thought it was better not to hire people from this village.
, all of them are hired by professional gardeners outside.”
Xue Ling chuckled and asked: "What? Don't you suffer from inequality of poverty?"
"Yes!" Cheng Tianyuan explained: "There are only a few people hired, and it is impossible for everyone in the village to take care of them. Those who hire may scold me for being too stingy and give me too little money, while those who do not hire may scold me for putting on airs and looking down on others.
.Instead of leaving a reason to be scolded by others, it is better to find a professional gardener from outside from the beginning. The reason is very good - find the most professional person to take care of it."
Xue Ling nodded: "Very good."
Father Xue on the side sighed thoughtfully: "In the beginning, I was kind-hearted and only wanted to do good for others. But what you think may not be the same as what others think. It's better not to be too self-righteous. Old lady, let's not give it to our children in the future.
What kind of introduction did we get, okay? Fortunately, they are all filial. If they were children from other families, they might have disliked us and become annoyed."
"...Sure." Xue's mother whispered aggrievedly: "As long as they come back and let me see them a few more times, everything can be discussed."
