Chapter 64: Ma Lingling Sister and Brother

Yanjing is the summer vacation on August 1, and Luyang is a day late.

The summer vacation is coming, and Xu Ting is worried about the holiday life of a pair of children.

Today, due to the sharp increase in the unemployment rate, the local security environment in Luyang has generally deteriorated a lot, and she and Ma Jie still have to go to work, so the couple really don't worry about leaving their sisters and brothers at home.

After thinking about it, Xu Ting planned to let Ma Lingling's sister and brother go to Yanjing to "defect" to her grandparents, and before that, she needed to talk to Xu's mother first.

After the phone was dialed, Xu Ting quickly got to the point.

"Mom, isn't this summer vacation, Ma Jie and I don't have time to take care of Lingling and Ma Xu, I want them to come to live with you for a month."

Mother Xu was very happy to hear this, and hurriedly urged:

"Then you hurry up and send the two of them over, I haven't seen them for more than half a year, and I've been missing them for a long time. If you don't come this time, your dad and I will be going back to see you in a while! ”

"Is Dad okay?"

"Okay, your dad is now capable, and he has more than 20 people under his command, but he is not home all day long." Xu Ma sighed.

Xu Ting smiled and teased: "Mom, didn't you always think that Dad was incapable before, Dad is finally getting out of shape now, why have you changed your hexagram again?" ”

"Phew!" Xu's mother said angrily: "You are a little conscienceless, your father and I are working so hard to make money, not for the sake of your three brothers and sisters, but one by one, I don't know what to do." ”

"Okay, Mom, don't be angry, I said the wrong thing."

Xu Ting hurriedly "admitted defeat", and Xu's mother has remitted 10,000 yuan to her every month for most of the past six months, which has effectively alleviated the financial pressure on their family.

It is said that "taking people with short hands and eating people with soft mouths", Xu Ting naturally has no confidence to talk back to Xu's mother.

"Okay, don't talk about these useless things, when are you leaving? I'll ask your dad to pick you up at the station. Xu Ma asked.

As for Xu Dong, unless it's a weekend, he usually has to go to work, so he doesn't have time at all.

"Mom, I can't come, I'm busy with work, I can't ask for leave. I'll ask Lingling and the two of them to come directly by high-speed train tomorrow morning, and you can just pick up people when the time comes. ”

Xu Ting can't help it, she works in the railway department, and the entire railway bureau has been running at high speed for most of the past six months, without a moment's rest.

Although she is busy at work, at least she has a stable job compared to others, so she usually doesn't dare to ask for leave easily.

"Okay, it's a lot of chaos out there right now." Mother Xu said worriedly.

Xu Ting comforted: "Why not, Lingling, she is about to be a sophomore in high school, and she is not a child, so it must be fine." ”

"Alright then, when you buy your tickets, don't forget to send me the arrival time." Mother Xu advised.

"Got it, I'll book tickets for both of them now."

"That's hanging."

"Mom, goodbye!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ting immediately went online and began to book tickets, booking the earliest bus in the morning, and then sent the arrival time to Xu's mother.

After returning home from work, Xu Ting called her daughter to her as soon as possible.

"Lingling, I told your grandmother that this year, you and Xiaoxu will go to Yanjing for the summer vacation, and your grandparents miss the two of you."

"Mom, can you not go, I also asked my classmates to work together for the summer vacation!" Ma Lingling said reluctantly.

She actually planned in her heart for a long time, this summer, she must save money to buy a mobile phone.

"No, you must go, your dad and I still have to go to work, and we don't have time to cook for the two of you."

The little cub actually wants to work for the summer vacation, and Xu Ting is even more worried now.

"I can cook myself." Ma Lingling tried her best to argue.

"That's not good, you went out to work for the summer, you can't leave your brother at home alone, right?"

"Little brother, he's not a child......"

Xu Ting directly interrupted: "No, it's not good, you pack your luggage at night, I bought the high-speed rail ticket for you, and I will leave early tomorrow morning." ”

"Mom......" Ma Lingling stomped her feet and said coquettishly.

Xu Ting had a big head for a while, so she had to be tempted: "Don't you want a second-hand mobile phone, I'll find out your father's old mobile phone later, and you can bring it with you tomorrow." ”

"Really?"

"If you don't want to, then forget it, I'll just send your brother to Yanjing alone."

"I'm willing to go!"

Ma Lingling is not stupid, since the mobile phone is in hand, she is still a wool worker, not to mention that the temperature outside is so high, she doesn't want to be tanned into black charcoal.

Thus, the matter was decided.

……

Early the next morning, Xu Ting personally sent a pair of children to the high-speed rail station.

Before parting, she explained again:

"When you get to your grandmother's house, don't just play all day, but help your grandmother and aunt take care of them."

"Got it." Ma Lingling said impatiently, my mother has said this three or four times.

"You must take good care of your brother, don't get separated, don't worry if you get separated, call the police immediately."

"Got it... I'll keep an eye on my little brother. ”

Xu Ting instructed her son again: "Xiao Xu, you must listen to your sister, don't run around, do you know?" ”

Ma Xu nodded.

"There's also a high-speed train, I'm going to call your grandfather, and he'll pick you both up at the exit, remember?" Xu Ting finally admonished.

"Remember, Mom, we're in the pit stop."

Ma Lingling took her little brother, waved goodbye to her mother, and then walked into the waiting hall through the security check.

Just after seven o'clock, the high-speed train departed on time.

"Sister, can you lend me your phone to play games?" Ma Xu stared at his sister's mobile phone early in the morning.

"What game do little kids play, hurry up and do your summer homework, I'll check it later." Ma Lingling refused, she still had to play herself.

"Humph......"

At eleven o'clock, Ma Xu shouted that he was hungry again and wanted to eat.

Ma Lingling got up and came back with two glasses of boiling water, then took out two fist-sized rice balls from the schoolbag she was carrying, and handed one of them to her younger brother.

"Here you go, hurry up and eat!"

"I don't want to eat rice balls, I want instant noodles." Ma Xu stared at the instant noodles soaked by the young lady opposite, and he almost drooled.

Thanks to Xu Dong's reminder, although Xu Ting's family did not hoard thousands of grains, they still hoarded a lot of rice, at least more than 800 catties.

So there is no shortage of rice at all, what they lack is food for dinner.

The supply of vegetables here in Luyang is far worse than that in the capital, and ordinary citizens can only grab a little vegetables a week, let alone meat.

"Do you eat or not? Mom put diced ham and meat in the rice ball, and if you don't eat it, it's all mine. Ma Lingling threatened.

The ham was still given by Xu Dong during the Chinese New Year, and Xu Ting and Ma Jie were usually reluctant to eat it at all, but they would cut a piece every once in a while to supplement the nutrition for their children.

"I eat, I eat ......"

As soon as he heard that there was meat, Ma Xu immediately took the rice ball.

"Slow down, no one will rob you."
