Chapter 51: A Cheerful Holiday
During the National Day holiday, Xia Wei had four days off, and on the morning of the first day, she woke up early in the morning, she lay lazily on the bed, thinking about the TV series that she hadn't finished watching yet, so she turned on the TV and watched it. Although the TV series is not my favorite genre, the ending is still quite good. Suddenly, I received a text message from Ah Le and Nanshan: I wish you a happy holiday! Later, there was no contact, maybe Ah Le was busy with his diary, and he dreamed of writing a diary novel. Before Xia Wei wrote a novel, Ah Le gave Xia Wei a lot of encouragement. At this time, Xia Wei felt that it was inconvenient to disturb him. For Nanshan, she doesn't know, she feels that Nanshan is so busy, maybe she doesn't have time to chat. Xia Wei also replied to them with a short message of blessings.
In the evening, Qinqin and Xiaorui, two young couples, also came back, and the family was together, so it was not lively. Everyone gathered at Xia Wei's parents (also the younger brother's house), the children played a game of hide and seek together, and the adults sat on the sofa chatting, eating fruits, chestnuts, peanuts, and watching TV, which was no less lively than the New Year.
Xia Wei pulled Xiaorui aside and asked, "How are you doing with him?" How's your company doing now? ”
Xiaorui glanced at her husband who was sitting on the sofa, and said with a smile: "Well, it's okay, we're okay now, but if he talks a little less, he may be worried by the company." The company has just started, it is not as easy to manage as we thought before, his salary is all invested in the operation of the company, and the family is maintaining my salary, and the company may be profitable next year. It's so difficult to start a factory by yourself, it's already like this, so you can only move forward. If we don't open this company and invest in this factory, we don't know how easy our little life is, maybe men just like to toss. He also forced me to have a second child, where do I dare to give birth, this one has made me very busy, I haven't adjusted my mentality yet, and I'll wait for a second child to talk about it later. ”
Xia Wei hurriedly comforted: "That's right, you also have to think about it, a man has a man's career, let him toss it, whether it's successful or not, it's also an accumulation of experience, don't think too much, as for having a second child, just let it be, and get another one when you're ready." ”
Xiaorui smiled and said: "He just likes children, she is an ethnic minority, the state allows childbirth, and he wishes I had a group of children." ”
"On the premise that you are ready, you will give birth." Xia Wei also smiled.
"Well, yes."
"Live a good life, don't be cranky." Xia Wei continued to remind.
Xiaorui said politely, "Okay, thank you." ”
Early the next morning, Xia Wei and her mother went to the vegetable market together, Xia Wei wanted to find the old man who sold ducks during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but she searched all over the stall, and did not find the original old man who sold ducks, so she and her mother went to the poultry market in the vegetable market, two young people stopped Xia Wei and shouted: "Our ducks are free-range at home, buy one." ”
Xia Wei stepped forward to look at it and said, "How much is a catty?" ”
"If it's cheap, it's just fourteen yuan a catty."
Xia Wei listened to the price and pulled up her mother and left, but before her mother heard the price they said, she asked, "Why do you want to leave?" Isn't that great? ”
Xia Wei pulled her mother and said, "It's too expensive, fourteen yuan a catty, and the one I bought that day was only eight yuan a catty." ”
Mom understood, smiled and said, "Oh, I said." ”
Xia Wei and her mother came to the poultry market, and asked about the price from door to door, and the first few families all shouted the price of more than ten yuan, Xia Wei thought: I don't believe that the price will be so different. Finally arrived at the most corner of the market, the price is eight yuan a catty, my mother still refuses to buy here, she said: "Let's go to the front of the house, I often buy there, and I won't deduct my scale." ”
Xia Wei said, "Then let's go over and have a look." Walking to the stall, my mother asked the price, and the owner said, "It's eight yuan and five pounds." Xia Wei pulled her mother and said, "It's eight yuan a pound next door, let's go there and buy it." ”
After listening to Xia Wei's words, the stall owner immediately changed his words and said, "Then eight yuan a catty." ”
Mom immediately became excited and said, "Then weigh me one, and we'll take it home and kill it." ”
The stall owner immediately lowered his face and said: "Our ducks are not easy to bring back to kill, if you have to bring them back, then the price will be eight yuan and five pounds." ”
Mom still wanted to rely on her, and said to Xia Wei: "Just buy it here, they want duck feathers." ”
Xia Wei ignored her mother, and hurriedly came to the stall owner next door and asked, "How much is your duck a catty?" ”
"Eight."
"Can I take it back and kill it?"
"Okay, don't you save us?"
Xia Wei hurriedly pulled her mother and said, "Go next door and buy it, they are so difficult to talk to, and they are old acquaintances, and they said that they can take it home and kill it for eight yuan a catty." ”
"Huh? Then go over there and buy it. ”
Xia Wei said to her mother: "Obviously, he knows about doing business in the vegetable market, he said that the seller of poultry is not allowed to take it home to kill, he wants to deduct the name and kill the duck, you can't sue if you want to, you and your father bought a duck here last time for more than 70 yuan, this duck is only more than 40 yuan, this is not clear that it was slaughtered." ”
Mom laughed too.
Ah Le still hasn't contacted Xia Wei, maybe he's still sorting out his diary, maybe he has other plans. He said that the washing workshop was going to be subcontracted, maybe he wanted to get out of here, but I hope he is doing well.
On the 3rd, the whole family gathered together to have lunch at the eldest brother Mingming's house, and the younger brother and sister-in-law went to the vegetable market at night to do wholesale. At ten o'clock in the morning, the younger brother handed over the stall to his brother-in-law to take care of, and returned home to prepare lunch, while Xia Wei was also helping to pick up and wash vegetables. The younger brother used to open a restaurant and became his own chef, and his first pot of gold was earned from opening a restaurant, and his family liked to eat the dishes made by his younger brother, and of course he was the chef himself for family reunions. Although Xia Wei also cooks good dishes, compared with her younger brother, she has her own merits, and the first day of the party at her parents' house was made by Chef Xia Wei. The younger brother also has to take this opportunity to show his hand, so no matter how busy the market is, he must also cook the food himself to entertain his family.
At the dinner table, everyone was full of praise for the dishes made by the younger brother, laughing, frolicking, and the "little gray" dog at home was busy running with the children, eating the meat and bones handed over by the children, a happy scene.
Qinqin and Xiaorui left after lunch, Xia Wei was helping her brother clean up the table, wash the dishes, and mop the floor, and the family returned to peace.
In the evening, Xia Wei saw that the neighbors had gone to the square to dance, thinking that she had been with her family for several days and had not gone to the square to dance, so she said to the neighbors she met on the road: "You go first, I'll come over in a while." ”
When I came to the square, the music was already playing, and there were already many people dancing to the music, my mother was running on the road with my father these days, and Xia Wei found her neighbor Xiaomei to dance with the music.
After the dance, the dancer who had consulted gynecology came over to pull Xia Wei to dance again, and chatted, she said: "Doctor Xia, I have been on my period for many days and it hasn't been cleaned, please accompany me to the pharmacy to buy some medicine later." ”
"Okay, no problem, don't worry, use medicine to control inflammation first."
"Okay, thank you!"
"No thanks."
