It seems that early spring is approaching, and the last cold wind lingers here reluctantly, washing the entire street.
Zhang Haidong wrapped his daughter's clothes, then held her tightly in his arms and got on the bus.
My daughter is getting heavier and heavier, and she can hardly hold her anymore.
But who calls her his little cotton-padded jacket?
When he arrived at the door of Du Xiaoyin's house, he gently rang the doorbell.
Soon, Du Xiaoyin opened the door.
She was wearing light yellow pajamas and an apron, with a smile on her face.
Seeing Zhang Haidong holding his daughter in his arms, she smiled: "Is this your precious daughter?"
"Um."
Zhang Haidong nodded.
Du Xiaoyin quickly took off his apron, stretched out his hand toward Qianqian and said, "Come on, baby, let auntie give you a hug."
Qianqian looked at the enthusiastic Du Xiaoyin and was stunned for a moment, then suddenly shrank her body and hugged Zhang Haidong's neck.
Then he said timidly: "Hello, aunt..."
"Ahem...maybe this child has accepted his birth..."
Zhang Haidong quickly explained.
"Ah! It's okay. Come in quickly, there's only one dish left."
Du Xiaoyin put on her apron again.
She greeted the father and daughter and walked in.
There are many snacks placed on the coffee table, as well as five dishes that have been prepared. The aroma is so fragrant that it will attract the gluttons in people's stomachs.
The five dishes are:
Garlic broccoli...braised tofu...cold shredded chicken...braised chicken and pot-roasted pork.
These are all authentic Tianjin dishes!
They are also Zhang Haidong’s favorite dishes!
Du Xiaoyin is interested!
However, Zhang Haidong thought of something immediately and felt a little uncomfortable.
Because he saw a painting in Du Xiaoyin's bedroom last time, and the four dishes in it happened to be his favorite ones back then.
This made Zhang Haidong feel a little uncomfortable.
Why does he have the same dish as his favorite dish?
However, he quickly adjusted his emotions and sat down with his daughter.
"There are snacks on the table, specially bought for the children, so they can eat them."
Du Xiaoyin's voice came from the kitchen.
"good."
"This is the snack aunt prepared for you, do you want to eat it?"
Zhang Haidong picked up a bag of snacks and asked his daughter.
Qianqian didn't say anything, and suddenly got into Zhang Haidong's arms again.
"Okay, okay, if you don't want to eat, you won't eat! Why is this child so afraid of strangers? Auntie is so kind to you!"
Zhang Haidong simply thought that his daughter was afraid of strangers, so he could only hold her in his arms and comfort her.
Not long after, Du Xiaoyin came out carrying a basin.
"Come on, be careful, it's pickled fish."
She gently placed it on the coffee table and then took off her apron.
"Thank you for your hard work. You made such a big table of dishes. By the way, why isn't Jiu Mei here today?"
Zhang Haidong asked.
"Hey, she went out to hang out again. I don't care about her. Wouldn't it be nice for us to have dinner?"
As Du Xiaoyin spoke, he naturally picked up a piece of tofu with chopsticks and brought it to Zhang Haidong's mouth: "Come here, have a taste and see how my craftsmanship is."
Zhang Haidong was stunned for a moment, but then he still took it into his mouth.
"Not bad, very fragrant. This craftsmanship is really amazing! It's no problem to be a chef!"
He praised with a smile on his face.
This cooking technique was very similar to the dish he had eaten at Bai Yourong's house a while ago, but Zhang Haidong didn't say it out loud.
"Hehehe! I just learned it by doing. When I find someone to marry, I will cook for him every day."
As Du Xiaoyin spoke, he raised his eyelids and looked at Zhang Haidong.
This was the craft of those days.
He must be able to slowly recall the taste of that year!
Zhang Haidong also had a feeling in his heart that the taste was very similar to the taste of vegetables he ate in the past, and it seemed to evoke some kind of memory in his heart, but he couldn't put it in words for a while.
He gently picked up other dishes and ate them.
smell good!
I didn’t expect that Du Xiaoyin, a lady from a wealthy family, could have such good skills!
And, really...
It really tastes like back then!
If he had met her back then, he might have...
He couldn't help but praise it again: "It's so delicious! I don't know whose boy I will take advantage of in the future! It's such a blessing!"
"puff!"
Du Xiaoyin burst out laughing, blinked her eyes and said, "I won't take advantage of others so casually! Otherwise, I'll take advantage of you!"
She said half seriously and half playfully.
"Are you kidding me? I already have a baby at home."
Zhang Haidong smiled and then remembered that the daughter in his arms had not eaten yet.
She hurriedly said: "Qianqian, eat with your chopsticks. The food cooked by aunt is delicious."
Qianqian then picked up the chopsticks.
Du Xiaoyin quickly picked up a piece of braised chicken and handed it to Qianqian's mouth: "Come on, honey, try to see if the braised chicken cooked by aunt is delicious!"
Qianqian did not open her mouth, but looked at Du Xiaoyin with a soft smile on her face and said: "Auntie, my mother's cooking is delicious! I like to eat the food my mother cooks! Only my mother will feed my father.
Have a meal!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Haidong suddenly looked embarrassed.
He quickly explained: "Auntie's cooking is also delicious. You have to eat some of her cooking. Be good and be sensible."
"No! I'll eat it myself!"
Qianqian said, holding chopsticks in her little hands, and gently put a piece of braised tofu into the bowl.
"This child...recognizes his birth..."
Zhang Haidong could only explain with an embarrassed look on his face.
"It's okay, once born, twice mature. I will have to raise a daughter like this in the future. This is daddy's little cotton-padded jacket!"
Du Xiaoyin said, putting the piece of meat to Zhang Haidong's mouth: "If the child doesn't want to eat it, then you can eat it."
"good."
Zhang Haidong opened his mouth and swallowed the piece of meat.
The atmosphere was silent for a while, and then Zhang Haidong asked: "By the way, a new company has opened, will you come there too?"
"Yes! I went to work! I want to learn from a big marketer like you. I told my sister that you can take me with you when the time comes. Okay?"
Du Xiaoyin asked, blinking his big eyes.
"What do I have..."
"Just say it's okay! It's okay!"
Du Xiaoyin said, grabbed Zhang Haidong's hand and started acting coquettishly.
"Okay. I'll take you when the time comes. I'll try my best."
Zhang Haidong responded.
"That's right! Otherwise, how can I say that you are my good friend? Come, eat a piece of pickled fish."
As Du Xiaoyin spoke, he put another piece of pickled fish to Zhang Haidong's mouth.
"Is it yummy?"
"tasty!"
…
After finishing the meal happily, Zhang Haidong was ready to help clean up.
Unexpectedly, Du Xiaoyin strongly demanded that he clean up the matter, leaving Zhang Haidong alone.
After some polite exchanges, Zhang Haidong walked out with his daughter in his arms.
I don’t know if my daughter has eaten enough, but will the words her daughter said misunderstood Du Xiaoyin?
A child would definitely not say that kind of thing. Could Du Xiaoyin misunderstand that it was him who taught him?
They just treat themselves to a meal.
and……
Du Xiaoyin is indeed a good girl.
There's no such thing as a good girl to choose from.
Zhang Haidong felt very uneasy. Du Xiaoyin wouldn't be angry with him.
"Baby, don't talk nonsense next time you come out. Auntie is very kind to you, you have to be polite, you know?"
Zhang Haidong looked at his daughter in his arms and taught.
"Qianqian is not ungrateful..."
The daughter said, with tears in her eyes: "Dad, will you give up on your mother and Qianqian?"
She looked at Zhang Haidong and asked.
This kid...
At a young age...
Why do you think so much...
Zhang Haidong hurriedly said: "How could it be? Dad loves you and mom the most. Dad just told you that auntie is also very good to you, right?"
As he spoke, he quickly took out a tissue and wiped the tears from his daughter's eyes.
"Qianqian doesn't want my aunt to be nice to me. Qianqian only wants her parents to be nice to me! Qianqian wants her parents to be together forever!"
The daughter continued.
Zhang Haidong was stunned.
He didn't know how to answer.
After a long while, he said: "Okay, dad and mom will love you forever."
"Then will you separate from your mother?"
Qianqian asked timidly again.
Zhang Haidong took a deep breath, how could children understand the world of adults?
Then he said softly: "We will never be separated."
"Don't tell your mother about eating today when you go back."
"good."
The bus is coming.
…
It seems that because he was too full, Zhang Haidong fell asleep early after taking the child home.
After a sweet nap, when I opened my eyes again, it was already evening.
I took out my phone and looked at it, it was already 6:30 pm.
Du Jing should be back soon.
After going to the bathroom and washing up briefly, he took out the dishes from the refrigerator and started cooking slowly.
When the dishes were ready, Du Jing finally returned home with a tired look on her face.
Looking at the dishes on the table, she smiled and said: "Husband, you are so kind!"
After saying that, he placed the fruit in his hand on the coffee table.
"Why are you so tired? You must be exhausted!"
Zhang Haidong felt a little distressed.
"Hi, it's nothing. It's just that the goods arrived today. Sister Zhang and I unloaded the goods and tidied up the store."
Du Jing said and walked into the bathroom.
"You're too tired from physical work. Eat well, wife. Why do you like to buy fruit these days?"
Zhang Haidong served Du Jing rice.
"That's not taking care of you and your daughter. Spring is coming soon. Eating more fruits will help your body replenish vitamins and increase your resistance."
Du Jing said with a smile.
"It's too expensive. You can eat it just fine. I'm very strong."
Zhang Haidong waved his hand.
"It's just for you and your daughter. Your hair is starting to fall out. Why is it more expensive? If I work a few more days, I'll be paid. Can't we eat fruit anymore?"
Du Jing said with a smile.
At this time, her daughter ran out of the room and ran to Du Jing with a painting.
"Silly girl, why are you not eating?"
Du Jing looked at her daughter dotingly and said.
"Qianqian drew a picture. It was a picture of her parents and Qianqian."
As she spoke, she shook her little hand and opened the painting.
Above are two adults, holding a small figure in the middle.
Although the painting is a bit rough, it is clearly visible that it is a scene of a family together.
"mua!"
Du Jing put down her job, hugged her daughter, kissed her, and then said: "Don't worry, your parents will always be with you, baby!"
Zhang Haidong next to him lowered his head.
After tidying up, Du Jing fell asleep early.
She is very tired.
So with a slight snore.
Zhang Haidong looked at Du Jing beside him, with a complicated expression in the darkness.
Eileen Chang once said: If two people who love each other don't go on forever, then one of them must have lied.
Are you lying now?
he does not know.
…
"Zhang Haidong, your plan has been approved. Come to the company early later, and you will have to implement some specific guidelines."
Early in the morning, Wu Yao called.
"Okay. I'll be there in a minute."
Zhang Haidong then got up and washed himself.
His daughter was painting by herself, and he hurried to the company after giving some instructions.
"This is the implementation of a specific plan. There are slight changes in some places, but it will not affect the overall situation. This time the planning will still be led by you. Take a look."
Wu Yao said and handed over the planning plan.
"Have you also reached an agreement with Jinxiu Group?"
After watching for a while, Zhang Haidong raised his head and asked.
"Um."
"Other merchants must have the same opinion on price reduction profits and this promotion."
"It's all done. You don't need to worry about these. Times like this are when we need to get together and share the same hatred. When can you get it done and start the big promotion?"
Wu Yao asked.
The current situation is that everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
"Of course, the sooner the better. Didn't you say we'll start within a month? Today is Monday, so this weekend. Five days to prepare."
Zhang Haidong answered affirmatively.
"What's a good name? Ten billion subsidies?"
Wu Yao asked.
"No! Call it a red weekend, with tens of billions of subsidies! Fight them every weekend!"
