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 pounds, not too much, not too much."
Wang Xiaoxiao almost cried, explaining: "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 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 cruelly: "From today on, I have to go on a diet!"
Xue Ling asked curiously: "Don't you often swim for exercise?
Just exercise to lose weight, dieting is very hard.”
There are two dedicated chefs in the family, and all three meals are exquisite and delicious dishes. There are also a variety of fresh and refreshing snacks in the morning and afternoon, plus imported fruits and supplements that are fed every now and then.
In such an atmosphere surrounded by delicious food, it is even more difficult to go on a diet! Wang Xiaoxiao explained bitterly: “I also know it’s hard, but I have to do this.
I exercise and run every day now, and I feel hungry after running.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of delicious food at home, so when I feel hungry, I eat all kinds of food, and in the end I really have 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 could also tell that I had gained weight again, so he told me very tactfully to get on the scale.
He will have to work overtime until the express company shuts down, and he probably won't be able to come back for 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 when 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."
don't want.
Mom, don’t prepare our share of dinner until Yangyang comes back.
Also, I can’t eat with you in the morning or lunch, because 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 is losing weight. She has to arrange her own meals for a while.
The nannies and nannies are all in the big kitchen and they prepare the food themselves, just like the bodyguards and security guards."
Mother Xue looked around and suddenly lost all appetite.
“The four of us sat in such a big place, and we couldn’t even occupy a small corner of the table.
Alas...this home is becoming more and more deserted."
Xue’s father couldn’t help but comfort him: “Don’t be in a hurry, the New Year will be here in about ten days, and everyone will be back by then, and it will definitely be lively.
Also, I will call Zhao Zhilan later so that they can come over for dinner when they are free."
"I..." Mother Xue couldn't help but regret, and whispered: "If we didn't force Ranran to go on a blind date, he would at least be willing to live at home.
It would be a little more lively if he had more meals together in the morning and evening.
Also, the third child hasn’t 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 doing something wrong, and you worry so much about them. It’s okay if they don’t know how to be grateful, but 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 has begun to speed up. It is expected that it will be completed early next summer."
"oh 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.
It is easy to plant flowers and plants, and the combination of grass and flowers takes up most of the land.
It's just that after the tree is moved in, it won't be able to regain its lush foliage all at once. It will have to grow slowly year by year, and it will take about two to three years before it becomes green again."
"It's okay, take your time."
Mother Xue reminded: "You have to hire more 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 fifties and sixties to work in the village. I didn't know who would be better at the beginning. I just wanted to increase the employment rate in the village a little bit.
After Mom said this, I think it’s better not to hire people from this village, but to hire professional gardeners from outside.”
Xue Ling chuckled and asked: "What?
Not suffering from poverty and inequality?”
"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.
The people who hired me might scold me for being stingy and giving me too little money, while the people who didn't hire me might scold me for putting on airs and looking down on others.
Rather than leaving a reason to be scolded by others, it is better to find a professional gardener from outside from the beginning, and 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 always kind-hearted and only wanted to do good for others.
But what you think may not be the same as what others think, so it’s better not to be too self-righteous.
Old lady, let’s not find any introduction partners for the children in the future, okay?
Fortunately, they are all filial. If it were children from other families, they might have disliked us and become annoyed."
"……become."
Mother Xue whispered aggrievedly: "As long as they come back and let me see them a few more times, everything can be discussed."
