"Sister, are you coming? Are you afraid of ghosts? You can sleep in the same room with me and I will protect you." Tongtong went to ask the girl.
This sentence made the girl angry. She widened her eyes in dissatisfaction and said, "I'm not afraid of ghosts!"
"Yeah, but ghosts are so scary, you'd better sleep with me." Tongtong said with a hum, and while talking, he showed his teeth and claws and made movements to scare his sister.
Xia Zekai looked at this amazing teammate and wanted to beat him up, but also thought about what a good girl he was.
He said: "Girl, look at how bold Tongtong is, you should do the same, you will all have to stand alone in the future..."
The girl scratched her head again, and asked in confusion: "Dad, what does it mean to be alone? Can you say it in a way that I can understand?"
Xia Zekai was depressed and his daughter told him twice.
Luo Xiyun watched with interest as Xia Zekai played with the two girls.
She didn't care, but thinking about it, Yatou and Tongtong were both old, so it wouldn't be good to be together anymore.
For example, one time, when the two of them were just upstairs together, who knew that Tongtong, who had been coaxed to sleep, suddenly woke up, looked at the couple with wide eyes, and asked them: "Dad, you and mom are fighting."
?"
Luo Xiyun was extremely embarrassed at that time. What was happening?
The girl became angry because she was being squeezed by Tongtong and her father. She stared and said, "What's the big deal? I can just sleep by myself. I'm not afraid."
"Hehe!" Xia Zekai looked amused.
After dinner in the evening, Xia Zekai took Yatou and Tongtong for a walk outside. Tongtong was running around very energetic, and Yatou started to feel sleepy.
Back home, after Luo Xiyun helped them both wash up, Tongtong ran to the next room excitedly. She yelled, "Dad, I'm going to sleep here tonight."
"But what should I do if I need to pee?"
"I'll come over and pee for you at night," Xia Zekai said.
Now they rarely need Xia Zekai and his wife to urinate at night, which is another reason why Xia Zekai insists that they sleep separately.
After all, she is a girl, she is almost growing up, and she has to learn many things slowly. Xia Zekai feels that she should avoid it.
Even though the girl was sleepy, she was still a little reluctant when she went there. Tongtong called her several times before going to the room where Tongtong went.
Unlike Tongtong, depending on the girl's personality, it is a bit difficult to expect her to sleep in a room by herself right now.
After a while, just when Xia Zekai and Luo Xiyun thought everything was okay, the girl suddenly shouted again: "Dad, come here."
"What are you doing?" When Xia Zekai heard his daughter calling, he thought something had happened and hurried over.
Then I heard the girl say: "Dad, I can't sleep, please tell me a story."
Tongtong said disdainfully: "Huh, coward!"
"Bah, I'm not a coward, I just can't sleep, Tongtong, I'll bite you." The girl yelled, baring her teeth and about to pounce on her sister.
But she was no match for Tongtong. Xia Zekai quickly caught her at the critical moment and asked her: "What story do you want to hear?"
"The story of Zhu Bajie and Monkey Sun." said the girl.
When Xia Zekai heard the same old story again, the girl was willing to listen, so he started telling it again.
"A long, long time ago, there were two monsters who followed the monk Tang Seng to the Western Mountains to learn Buddhist scriptures. One was Zhu Bajie with a big nose and big ears, and the other was Sun Monkey, who had hair all over his body. They were both very powerful..."
"No, Dad, you are wrong. Sun Monkey is the most powerful, Zhu Bajie is too lazy. He just knows how to eat and is just like Tongtong." The girl did not forget to criticize her sister.
But Tongtong ignored her and said, "I just like to eat, hum!"
Xia Zekai had a headache when he saw that the two sisters were about to fight again. He quickly comforted the two girls and set a rule for them: "If you two keep arguing, I won't tell you stories.
Go back to sleep."
"Okay, Dad, please continue talking, I won't make trouble anymore." The girl grabbed her father's big hand and refused to let him go.
Xia Zekai took the trouble to talk again. His voice was very low and gentle, just to avoid scaring the two sisters.
"Once when I was passing by the Liusha River, Monkey Sun..."
Xia Zekai continued to talk. When he lowered his head, he found that Yatou and Tongtong were both asleep.
The girl even kicked off the blanket on her body. Xia Zekai quickly tucked the blankets for her and Tongtong. Looking at the two girls sleeping soundly under the orange light, a satisfied smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
.
He gently opened the little hand that the girl was holding on to him, and raised the gear lever outside the bed.
This is a bed specially prepared for the two of them. The bed in the other room is also the same, just to prevent them from rolling down when they sleep.
Back in the bedroom, Luo Xiyun was still sitting on the bed reading a book.
Seeing Xia Zekai come in, she asked, "They are both asleep."
"Well, I'm sleeping. Just now, the girl asked me to tell her a story. Why didn't you go to sleep?" Xia Zekai smiled unconsciously when he said that the girl asked him to tell her a story.
Luo Xiyun stretched, put the book aside, and said, "When you go to bed, remember to go over and check on them at night to make sure they don't wet the bed."
"You don't need to tell me, I have already set a time. I will go there at twelve o'clock to take a look." Xia Zekai said.
While talking, Xia Zekai also lay on the bed.
In the dark night, Xia Zekai lay on his back on the bed, looking at the roof, and murmured to himself: "Daughter-in-law, it's been five years."
"Oh, you're still feeling emotional. I think you're not tired yet, so I'll go to bed first." Luo Xiyun said, she was sleepy.
Xia Zekai got excited and said, "Don't worry, don't you know we have to celebrate?"
"How to celebrate? Are you going out to buy a cake? Or have a candlelit night chat?" Luo Xiyun gave several examples.
Xia Zekai's hands were already dishonestly climbing up and down the mountain from under the blanket.
Luo Xiyun was furious. She knew that Xia Zekai was a bad guy who encouraged the girl to sleep in a separate room with Tongtong, which was definitely up to him. She raised her arm and patted the hand: "Get out of here, I'm so sleepy!"
"
"Daughter-in-law, if I don't do anything else, I will rub your shoulders and squeeze your legs." Xia Zekai said seriously.
"Only a ghost believes you!" Luo Xiyun didn't believe a word of it.
Can……
In the night, clouds covered the moonlight, the night became darker, and murmurs sounded. This time, I no longer had to worry about being disturbed.
At night, Xia Zekai was woken up by the sound of his cell phone vibrating. He went to the room next door and helped Yatou and Tongtong pee. The two sisters complained that they were sleepy and refused to pee. After a while, they fell asleep again.
.
The next morning, Xia Zekai woke up at around five o'clock. Tongtong, who was sleeping in the next room, also got up from the bed early. She also woke up her sister and asked her to go run and exercise.
The angry girl went crazy and wanted to have a fight with her early in the morning.
When Tongtong saw her father, she asked proudly: "Dad, I slept by myself. Do you think I'm awesome?"
"Awesome, Tongtong is so awesome."
After the girl heard this, she was unhappy: "Dad, I also slept by myself, why don't you praise me?"
Xia Zekai touched her little head and said, "This girl is also very powerful, okay."
"Huh!" The girl raised her eyebrows happily and glanced at Tongtong. She didn't want to sleep either.
She climbed up with her sister and went downstairs with her father. She also wanted to go to Aunt Geng to exercise.
Zhou Yinghong has already gotten up, and she is going to clean up the vegetable garden behind the villa.
It rained for three days and two nights this time, soaking the ground. The sudden increase in water level flooded the vegetable garden. Even Xia Zekai once thought that the vegetables grown in the vegetable garden were doomed, but
Who knew that after the heavy rain, these vegetables would grow more vigorously.
Grain scorpion
The round eggplants they planted earlier have already produced fruits, and they still can’t finish them.
Beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, and red chili peppers make people very appetizing.
She was already used to it when she saw her son and granddaughter coming down to exercise, but she was still surprised when she saw her eldest granddaughter also coming down: "Girl, you can't sleep either?"
"Grandma!" the girl said in a long voice, with a particularly aggrieved voice. She pointed at Tongtong and said, "Tongtong is so bad. She won't sleep, and she won't let me sleep either."
"Isn't that right? Grandma will teach her a lesson for you." Zhou Yinghong said with a smile.
The girl was happy when she heard that. Before she saw her grandma avenge her, Zhou Yinghong asked her: "Are you going to see the vegetable garden with me?"
The girl shook her head: "I'm not going, I want to run with my father."
As she spoke, she shook her little arms, as if she was trying to build muscles.
Zhou Yinghong didn't persuade him, so he gave up.
Wang Yi had already started exercising, and the other seven people also got up to exercise.
Seeing Xia Zekai and Tong Tong coming over, Xia Zekai continued running as usual. After Tong Tong ran two laps, he followed Wang Yi and learned his set of five-position plum blossom piles.
Several people recalled the scene when they first saw Tongtong learning martial arts with Wang Yi, and they were shocked at that time. They never expected that such a big child could be so self-disciplined.
But what is unexpected is that the girl is also very diligent today and will learn dance from Geng Yuqin when she comes over.
The morning passed by laughing and joking.
Today is Saturday. After breakfast, Xia Zekai did not go to the company as usual, but went out with his family.
Dashang Group opened a new shopping mall in Qicheng, and Luo Xiyun wanted to go shopping and buy some clothes for the family.
On the way there, Xia Zekai was still nagging: "Lotte Mart from South Korea couldn't adapt to the climate and has been withdrawn. Wal-Mart is also half-dead now. The Golden Emperor Mall opposite Ginza is also about to be withdrawn. What else is there in Daqi City?
?”
"Isn't the construction of Yintai City already started? I heard that a Wanxiang Hui is also going to be built. You know this, right?" Luo Xiyun was quite interested in this.
But having said that, she is interested in any shopping mall where she can buy things.
Xia Zekai nodded, how could he not know.
Not surprisingly, a few years later, these places were all open for business. However, Qicheng is so big and the consumption level is only so much. Several large comprehensive shopping malls scattered in the southeast, northwest and northwest are simply not enough to carve up Qicheng.
The level of consumption was such that both Yintai City and Wanxianghui were half-dead and lacked popularity.
From the beginning to the end, it was RT-Mart that made it very popular.
After arriving at the place, looking at the signboard New Mart written on it, Xia Zekai sighed, this one did survive, but it would just be like that in the later stages.
"Zekai, you push grandpa, I'll take our mother and girl, Tongtong, let's go look at the clothes first." Luo Xiyun made plans on the way.
The main purpose of coming here is to buy a few sets of clothes for the family and a couple of seasonal clothes.
The time has entered mid-to-late August, and autumn is not far away. The temperature will begin to drop by then, so it is always a good idea to prepare clothes in advance.
Having said that, for Luo Xiyun, she always felt that there was just one missing set of clothes that fit her in her wardrobe.
When Zhou Yinghong saw that her daughter-in-law wanted to choose clothes for her, she refused. Luo Xiyun said: "Mom, we all have them. If you don't buy them, then I won't buy them either, and I won't buy them for my dad and grandpa."
Zhou Yinghong thought that if I refused, I would be a sinner.
Luo Xiyun finally chose a shawl-like coat for her. It was plush. Zhou Yinghong had never worn such clothes at home. She felt uncomfortable no matter how she wore it. But after hearing her daughter-in-law keep saying it looked good, she finally gritted her teeth.
I agreed to buy it.
"Mom, you don't do farm work anymore. Just get used to it more. Next time I will go somewhere else to buy you something better." Luo Xiyun said.
This morning, she had been busy buying clothes for her family. Xia Zekai felt tired just looking at it, but he could only let her do what he wanted.
After finally buying all the clothes, Yatou and Tongtong had the opportunity to play bumper cars.
Watching the two sisters playing with bumper cars on the track, hitting the old tires next to them from time to time, they both laughed very happily at this time.
"Dad, it's fun!" the girl shouted loudly.
Tongtong was even happier. She liked this bumper car game, and she also liked the feeling of hitting the tire with the bumper car and then bouncing her and the car away. It was great.
"Dad, I like driving this car." Tongtong played for two rounds and was still reluctant to leave.
She said: "Dad, why don't you buy me one."
Xia Zekai nodded and said, "Okay, as long as you obey, dad will buy it for you and your sister."
Soon it was time to eat.
Tongtong finally bargained with her father and came over to play for two more rounds after dinner, and then she gave up.
Xia Shande looked at his granddaughter's happy face, and he was also happy.
There are many delicacies and snacks on the negative floor here. Luo Xiyun led Yatou and Tongtong in front, while Xia Zekai pushed his grandfather and followed behind.
After arriving here, there were more than thirty food stalls scattered here. Luo Xiyun had already held her mother-in-law's hand to choose her lunch meal.
For Zhou Yinghong, things like Treasure Island Muji, Spicy Hotpot, Laotongguan Roujiamo, Xijiade Dumplings, Milk Shopkeeper, Huangshanghuang Sauce Duck, etc. are all things she has never tasted before.
They all look delicious, but which one should I eat?
Unknowingly, Zhou Yinghong also fell into choice syndrome.
In the end, Luo Xiyun saw her mother-in-law's dilemma and didn't force her mother-in-law anymore. She happily ordered all the snacks.
In her words, if there are many people, buy more and try them all. You will know what to eat next time you come over.
Because it had just opened not long ago, there were a lot of people here. Fortunately, Xia Zekai and his team had a large number of people. When many people saw them sitting together, a few people stood very coldly, while the others did not
Dare to get closer.
After waiting for Luo Xiyun, Zhou Yinghong, Geng Yuqin, and Peng Guodong to bring over all the snacks ordered by Luo Xiyun, they started to feast on them.
The food was very satisfying.
…
When they came back from New Mart in the afternoon, Yatou and Tongtong were both already asleep. I don't know what sweet dream Yatou had in her sleep. She looked very happy, even though she would make a "giggle" from time to time in her sleep.
His laughter, sometimes pouting, and looking like he wanted to eat something, made Xia Zekai extremely happy.
When they returned home, Xia Zekai and Luo Xiyun were thinking about carrying them upstairs, but who knew that the girl who had just come out of the car and was sleeping soundly woke up immediately.
Tongtong woke up soon after. After taking a short nap, they both became more energetic. After getting out of the car, they ran around like little ponies having fun.
…
Capita Home Decoration and Yang Tiande have been too busy in recent months, especially after the identity of Xia Zejiang's major shareholder of "Yixing" was exposed. Not only did Toutiao benefit, but "Capita Home Decoration" also benefited.
Many customers in Jidong Province have called us to inquire about their decoration-related matters.
Yang Tiande thought it was a coincidence at first, and he didn't take it too seriously. It wasn't until more and more customers from outside Qicheng City called to inquire about the decoration that they realized that 'Capita Home Decoration' was unknown to them.
Juezhong is actually the leading decoration company in the province and is very famous in the industry.
As their reputation grew, more and more people approached them for decoration. At this time, Yang Tiande truly understood the importance of building a good 'brand' that Xia Zekai had so earnestly advised him to do.
After being free, Yang Tiande finally no longer had to think about work. He wondered whether Brother Xia was busy now, so calling him would not affect him.
After waiting for the call to get through, Yang Tiande realized that Xia Zejiang did not go to work today and had been playing with his two daughters at home.
He felt envious in his heart. To be honest, even though their living conditions were better, his son no longer listened to advice.
No matter how beautifully he talks, it's all in vain.
"Brother Xia, are you over there in the community or in the villa area? I will take the time to visit you." Yang Tiande asked him.
Xia Zekai said with a smile: "I have moved here to endorse the book a long time ago. Brother Qi, if you want to come, let me know. I will take good care of you with good wine and food, and I will not run away from you."
