"Brother Xia, we agreed to invite you. How can we change it casually? That's it. We'll go to your place and call you after we find a place." Liang Rubo hung up the phone after saying that.
Xia Zekai looked at the phone whose screen had gone black again. He turned to Luo Xiyun and said, "Rubo and the others are coming over to have dinner together tonight."
"Okay." Luo Xiyun was still lying on the bed. When he heard what he said, he nodded: "Go ahead."
"You and our mother can go together." Xia Zekai said.
Luo Xiyun waved his hand directly: "What am I going to do? I can't eat much. When the time comes, I'll feel like vomiting if I smell something wrong. Just humor me. What's going on?"
"My mother is not familiar with them, and we can't chat together, and we can't say a few words, so we might as well forget it at home," Luo Xiyun said.
What his wife said made sense. Xia Zekai opened his mouth and stopped trying to persuade her.
Qian Xueling gave a new judgment, saying that after Luo Xiyun could exercise appropriately every day, she couldn't stay any longer and wanted to make up for the time she had spent lying down some time ago.
After breakfast, she couldn't sit still, so she asked Xia Zekai to take her to the nearby Yuyuantan Park.
This lake can be traced back to the 38th year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, that is, the project was started in 1773. Some people think that the shape of Yuyuantan is like a gourd, so they call it Bayi Lake.
In 1960, the Beijing City Government expanded it and finally officially named Yuyuantan Yuyuantan Park. It is now a national 4A tourist attraction.
Adjacent to the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse and the China Millennium Monument, the entire Yuyuantan Park covers an area of 132.28 hectares, half of which is on the water. The whole park is divided into four areas: cherry blossom area, wet area, sports and leisure area and cultural exhibition area.
Unfortunately, the time was wrong, the cherry blossoms had already bloomed. Xia Zekai supported his wife and looked at the surrounding scenery along the path.
Geng Yuqin followed Yatou and Tongtong closely, fearing that they would run around and fall into the water again.
Wang Yi, Cui Xiaofeng and others followed behind, looking around warily, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
For them, ensuring the safety of their boss always comes first.
Fortunately, this is an open park, so there are not many unexpected incidents. Many people will wave to the lively girl and Tongtong after seeing them, making them laugh.
The girl is quiet and doesn't talk much at this time.
But Tongtong has a very strong skin. When people tease her, she responds, and sometimes she even says a few words to others, which makes her even more lovable.
Tongtong just said a few words to an old aunt, which made her laugh. She ran to Xia Zekai again: "Dad, look, that grandma praised me."
"Tongtong is awesome!" Xia Zekai encouraged her with a smile.
The little guy was so happy that he took his sister's hand and ran away again.
Geng Yuqin was following behind, and Liu Chunhua wanted to run to follow her, but her old arms and legs could no longer keep up with the speed of the two sisters.
I was running a little faster, but I didn't notice that there was a bump under my feet. My toes bumped into it, and my body subconsciously leaned forward. Fortunately, I reacted quickly, and I stumbled a bit without falling over.
When Luo Xiyun saw it, he was frightened and shouted: "Mom, please slow down, don't fall down again."
Liu Chunhua was also very frightened just now, her heartbeat was beating violently, she muttered: "I am getting old, I really can't survive."
Xia Zekai was also frightened. He was afraid that his mother-in-law would have another accident, and she would be very busy by then. He said, "Mom, just ask Xiao Geng to follow you. Just walk slowly."
As they were walking, a tourist team wearing little red riding hoods came next to them. The team was mainly composed of older adults and aunts, with a small number of young lovers.
There was a female tour guide in front wearing the same style of Little Red Riding Hood and white short-sleeves. She was carrying a small shoulder-strap loudspeaker, and a bendable microphone hung on her ear. The sound came from the loudspeaker. came out.
"Ahead is the most famous cherry blossom garden in the park, which is also one of the largest cherry blossom viewing gardens in China. The entire area covers an area of more than 25 hectares and contains more than 2,000 cherry blossoms of various types. It also forms the most famous cherry blossom garden in Beijing. 'Eight Views of Sakura'..."
Her eloquent introduction perfectly aroused the curiosity of many people in the tourist group, and they all started shouting, wanting to go over and have a look.
But the female tour guide said at this time: "I'm sorry, we came at the wrong time. The cherry blossoms usually bloom from March to April every year. If uncles and aunts are interested, you might as well sign up with me in March to April next year. Let’s meet at the Sakura Garden together.”
Automatically ignoring the complaints from some uncles and aunts, the female tour guide took the team to other places.
After Luo Xiyun saw it, he said: "If it opens in March or April next year, maybe we can go there and have a look."
Xia Zekai calculated the time and found that their expected date of delivery was the end of March. If his wife was confinement at home, she would have perfectly missed the cherry blossoms blooming this time.
But in the end, if she was born prematurely, she might not be able to take a look.
…
Considering his wife's physical condition, Xia Zekai and the others took a look around the Sakura Garden area, and took Yatou and Tongtong to take a boat ride in the lake for a while, and then returned to the community.
Yatou and Tongtong had a lot of fun today. After entering the house, they gathered around their father. The two sisters kept flattering each other. The implication was that they wanted Xia Zekai to take them with him. Go out and play.
Xia Zekai thought for a while and asked: "Girl, Tongtong, dad is having dinner with your Uncle Zhang and Uncle Liang tonight, are you going to go?"
"Go..." Before she finished speaking, the girl stopped again, turned to look at Luo Xiyun, and asked, "Mom, are you going?"
"I won't go. I feel sick and have to rest at home at night." Luo Xiyun said.
She said: "If you want to go, just follow dad."
But when the girl heard what she said, she shook her head: "If mom doesn't go, I won't go either. Mom is feeling uncomfortable. I'll talk to mom and ask her little brother in her belly to stop being naughty!"
Tongtong's eyes swayed back and forth between her father and mother, and finally fell on her sister. She hummed and said, "Then I won't go either."
The old lady Liu Chunhua said: "It's a good idea not to go. Grandma will prepare delicious food for you in the evening. You think about it quickly and what you want to eat."
Liu Chunhua attracted the attention of Yatou and Tongtong with just one sentence. They stopped looking at their father and kept thinking about what to eat at night.
In the afternoon, Liang Rubo called Xia Zekai: "Brother Xia, the four of us, Yiming, Lao Yu, and Lao Yang, are going to Little White Shark now. We'll see you later."
Xia Zekai was still unfamiliar with this place, so he asked: "Where is the little white shark?"
"It's near the community where you live. It's not very far. Brother Xia, you can find out by navigating." Liang Rubo said.
Xia Zekai didn't even search. He told Wang Yi to go to "Little White Shark" later and ignored the rest.
When Liang Rubo called Xia Zekai again and said that they had arrived, Xia Zekai said to his wife and mother-in-law and left.
The Little White Shark is located in the Shuguang Disaster Prevention Education Park. It has a beautiful environment and convenient transportation. From the overall environment, you can't fault it at all.
Accompanied by Wang Yi, he entered the hotel and was greeted by Liang Rubo and others.
I have met Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming many times, but I have not seen Yu Shuping and Yang Bin very much in the past year.
Xia Zekai still remembers that he was able to develop to this point. Yu Shuping gave him a lot of help both in the early and middle stages.
The 'Jingtong Baby' Taobao store under Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. can only develop like a triple jump. The traffic support provided by Sina in the early stage cannot be wiped out in any case.
At that time, Yang Bin was still the editor-in-chief of Sina News Center, and he was also very helpful.
It felt like they hadn't seen each other for more than a year, but when they met again, they both had a lot of white hair on their heads and wrinkles on their faces. Xia Zekai felt bad inside.
"Brother Xia, if we have anything to say, go and talk inside." Zhang Yiming said with a smile.
Yang Bin took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with Xia Zekai with a smile: "Boss Xia, I haven't seen you for more than a year. You are still the same. Unfortunately, I am already old."
"It's just that I'm getting old too, and I feel like I'm not capable of doing my job lately." Yu Shuping was full of emotions.
People cannot accept old age anymore.
Four people embraced Xia Zekai into the room. Liang Rubo handed Xia Zekai a crystal menu book on the round table in the room and said, "Brother Xia, when you didn't come over just now, I ordered Braised Buddha Jumping over the Wall, King Oyster Mushroom
Angus beef, seafood Poon Choi, steamed dragon grouper, braised Nanlu Island croaker, baby white shark three treasures, and crispy roasted squab are all the specialty dishes of the store. Let’s see what else you want to eat.”
Xia Zekai closed the crystal menu book and said, "That's enough. It's almost done. Let's eat these first."
"Brother Xia, why are you so polite? These dishes are exquisitely prepared and the portions are small. Brother Xia, please order a few more." Zhang Yiming said, they are very knowledgeable.
Even Yu Shuping and Yang Bin persuaded him. This meal was for Xia Zekai to cleanse himself from the dust. Not to mention how much money it had to cost, but the minimum hospitality must be in place.
Xia Zekai ordered the Royal Mushroom Kung Fu Soup and some seasonal vegetables, but ignored the rest.
After Yu Shuping saw it, he added two more dishes.
The wine was brought from Tongzhou Laojiao themselves. Yang Bin, as an old Beijing native, kept saying: "Boss Xia, don't think this wine is not famous, but in my opinion, it is better than Luzhou Laojiao and Wuliangye."
It’s much better, what a good thing.”
"Haha, I have a good taste today." Xia Zekai doesn't care if it's a famous brand when he drinks. He has passed the stage of needing to rely on 'famous brands' to support his face. It should be said that he is a brand himself, and what he wants now is a smooth meal.
Drink to taste.
The dishes were served one after another. Every time a dish was served, the four of them would let Xia Zekai taste it first.
Don't tell me, this restaurant doesn't sound very famous according to its name, but the food is not bad at all, the price is a bit more expensive, and the food is very delicious.
"Exquisite!" Xia Zekai imitated the tone of the old Beijing people and gave a thumbs up. He was quite satisfied.
