Chapter 1160: Eating Melon with Sister Xin'er (2/3)
In the yard, the arrangement of the birthday party has been done, but this will not start until noon, and by the way, the lunch will be replaced with cakes and barbecue delicacies! Therefore, Yang Yi accompanied Lanzhou Kai, Nan Yiyun and other parents to sit under the temporary pergola that had just been erected, drinking tea and chatting while enjoying the coolness.
Originally, Yang Yi had to prepare snacks and fruits, as well as barbecue ingredients for everyone to eat together at noon, but Wu Yue, Yu Ying and other mothers were very enthusiastic, and they were stunned to rob these kitchen jobs, including Murphy also went to the kitchen to help, and these "big men" were "kicked out" and stayed in the yard to chat.
There are two gods of wealth in Lanzhou Kai and Yang Yi, and the content of the men's chat is naturally in the direction of financial management.
It is worth mentioning that last year, Chen Guoqiang, Nan Yiyun and others also consulted Lanzhou Kai's opinions, boldly bought real estate in Wuhu District, at the beginning of this year, Wuhu District began to carry out the renovation of old houses, although the demolition compensation is not their turn, but the housing prices in Wuhu District began to rise, and those who have bought houses, like Chen Guoqiang and Nan Yiyun, are happy to see that they have "earned".
Like Yu Ying, after earning the manuscript fee last year, under the prompt of everyone's chat, she also began to invest in real estate, and her assets have also been improved. Of course, for Yu Ying, her "Little Bub Adventures" has been arranged by Sahara Publishing House to be made into picture books, audiobooks, and even animation adaptations, and the income in the later period is constantly pouring in to her, so Yu Ying does not have to care about the little appreciation income brought by real estate.
But for ordinary families like Nan Yiyun or Chen Guoqiang, Yang Guo, etc., the benefits of these real estate upgrades are real joy!
Now that they have the opportunity to chat with Lanzhou Kai again, they are naturally looking forward to getting some money-making news from Lanzhou Kai - maybe the news that is inconspicuous in the eyes of rich people is a great benefit to them!
Lanzhou Kai naturally understands the thoughts of these parents, but he has a high emotional intelligence, he has always been smiling, playing Tai Chi with ease, he can always detour the topic when he shouldn't say it, what can be said, he is not stingy, and he is very measured and does not leave a trace to reveal to them some information that can make money.
In contrast, Yang Yi's communication skills are a little weak, after all, this is an ability that can only be honed after years of accumulation, and it has a lot to do with personal character, so even if he has worked hard to integrate into the world of ordinary people in the past few years, Yang Yi still can't play these scenes.
Fortunately, he is relatively smart, and he talks and laughs, but most of them are mainly in line with Lanzhou Kai, and he rarely gets involved in these topics.
……
The ones who rescued Yang Yi were still his favorite, innocent children!
I don't know how Chen Shiyun and the others persuaded Xi Xi, anyway, including Xi Xi, a large group of children swarmed out of the door, noisy, and ran in front of Yang Yi.
Lan Xin was dutiful, she took Xiao Yu's little hand and walked behind slowly.
Interestingly, although Lan Xin fell behind because of Xiao Yu, it was Xiao Yu who was anxious to keep up with her sisters, and Lan Xin was not happy to run too fast.
Why are you running so fast when it's so hot?
"Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang!" Chen Shiyun was the most active, she ran over, grabbed the armrest of the beach chair that Yang Yi was sitting on, and asked excitedly, "Can we, that is, just swim in your swimming pool?"
Yang Yi asked with some surprise, "You want to swim?"
"Uh-huh!" the little guys around Yang Yi nodded excitedly.
Lu Weisha's reaction was a little slower, because she had to wait for Xixi to translate for her, and Lu Weisha, who finally understood the thoughts of her friends, also waved her arms happily and said in English: "Swimming, I like swimming!"
"What?" At this time, several people from the mother's group, Wu Yue, Murphy, Yu Ying and others came over with plates, and when they saw the excitement here, they asked curiously.
When they knew that the little ones wanted to swim, Wu Yue and Yu Ying hurriedly waved their hands and vetoed: "No, no, no! I didn't bring a change of clothes, and I didn't bring a swimsuit, how can I go into the water to play?"
They were right, the little ones were a little bit ill-conceived.
But this kind of refusal is still a little difficult for the children to accept, Chen Shiyun and Yang Luoqi both pouted, and said unhappily: "We want to swim!"
Seeing this, Yang Yi hurriedly got up from the beach chair, pressed on their shoulders, and smiled and comforted: "It's okay, it's more sudden today, otherwise, next time you come to play, bring your swimsuit, and uncle will open the swimming pool for you to play again, okay?"
Yang Yi's words were obviously much more convincing than the reprimands of their parents, although they still looked reluctant, but at least they just puffed out their mouths sullenly, twisted their butts reluctantly, and did not continue to be stubborn with their mothers.
"Let's eat cantaloupe, watermelon, mango, cherries, all cut and washed. Murphy also smiled and greeted the little ones.
At this moment, Lan Xin, who was standing at the back, didn't know when she took Xiao Yu's hand and came to the front, and she was going to "return" Xiao Yu to Yang's father, and her eyes immediately lit up when she heard this.
Lan Xin couldn't take care of Xiao Yu's "little burden", so she took Xiao Yu's hand, no matter that the other friends were still sulking, she and Xiao Yu got up silently.
Can't make a big fuss, there are so many people, if you want to eat delicious food, you have to grab it!
Then, she let go of Xiao Yu's hand and picked up a piece of cantaloupe on the table.
Lan Xin took a bite by herself first, but when she looked down, she saw Xiao Yu's eyes again.
Yes, and my brother!
Lan Xin took out one hand and picked up another piece of cantaloupe on the plate. However, on the new cantaloupe, the melon kernels were not removed, and Lan Xin carefully discovered this.
But there is no free hand, what to do?
It doesn't matter, Lan Xin has a way, she took the cantaloupe she had bitten and scratched on the new one, and the melon kernel was removed.
"Here, here's for you!" Lan Xin handed the finished cantaloupe to Xiao Yu, and as she spoke, she couldn't wait to take another bite on her cantaloupe, "Well, it's so sweet, it's cool, it's delicious!"
Lan Xin's intoxicated appearance made Xiao Yu's saliva water, he held the cantaloupe a little awkwardly, and also took a small bite on the side of the cantaloupe.
"Sweet, right?" Lan Xin was satisfied with her own meal, and she didn't forget to look at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu couldn't care about talking, he could only tilt his little head, his mouth moved, his eyes narrowed sweetly, and he grinned.
I still have delicious food with Sister Xin'er!
But at this time, Murphy looked back and saw it, and smiled angrily: "Xin'er! You didn't wash your hands and ate without washing your hands!"
"I brought wet wipes with me, just wipe them off. Yu Ying hurriedly said.
Although Xixi and her friends were a little depressed because they couldn't swim, they may have been influenced by Lan Xin, and with the help of their mothers, they wiped their hands, let go of their depressed mood, and came to eat fruit.
Lanzhou Kai sat on the side, also smiling and eating watermelon, suddenly, he remembered something, and said with a smile: "By the way, didn't you say that you like swimming? Recently, our company sponsored the Municipal Sports Commission to hold a swimming competition for children over six years old and under twelve years old in the city, divided into different age groups, and divided into boys and girls. It's a big competition, and there are a lot of people who sign up, and the registration deadline is on the 20th or 25th of this month, so you can participate if you are interested. ”
"Is there a swimming competition held in the city, will there be many children who specialize in swimming?" Wu Yue became interested and asked curiously.
Lanzhou Kaile said hehehe: "Well, it is held in the city, I don't know the specific registration requirements, I'll ask people when I go back, and then I'll send it to you." But isn't the state advocating national fitness and exercising every day? The city is also engaged in some sports with full names, and it happens to be summer, and there are football games, basketball games, and so on, and there are all kinds of competitions, but I think that the swimming competition is good, at least it is not easy to get injured, and moreover, the competitions organized by the Municipal Sports Commission, the venues, referees, and so on are all on the right track, and the safety is guaranteed. ”
Lanzhou Kai actually didn't register for Lan Xin, and he even forgot about it before, and now he remembered it temporarily. After all, Boss Lan had a lot of things, and his subordinates reported it to him, signed and approved the sponsorship fee, and left it behind.
