Chapter 245: Oysters

Since October, the temperature has dropped a little bit in the morning and evening, and the triplets have to wear thick cotton clothes to kindergarten every morning.

However, this is convenient for Dabao to steal things, and Niuniu's little face is more and more rounded under his feeding.

During this period, a lot of major events have also taken place in the world.

The first is the internal strife in the EU, where several parties do not make concessions to each other, almost to the point of incompatibility;

Second, with the signing of the New Antarctic Convention, there is a new order in Antarctica;

Third, scientists have found that the melting of Antarctic and Antarctic glaciers is accelerating, and it is estimated that they will disappear in a few years. However, due to strong evaporation, the two phases are canceled out, and the sea level does not rise much, and generally tends to be stable.

In the end, the Commander of the Beautiful Nation was assassinated, the third Commander to be assassinated this year, which caused a series of chaos.

……

October 9th, the National Day of Great Xia.

This year's National Day was a bit uneventful, with few celebrations scheduled on it, just a few groups of themed sculptures erected on Victory Square.

According to last year's agreement, early in the morning, Xu Dong took the Coco sisters to Victory Square, ready to watch the National Day flag-raising ceremony again.

At a glance, this year's crowds are no less than last year's.

After the grand flag-raising ceremony, Xu Dong took the two sisters to Panjiayuan to visit, today is the National Day, Panjiayuan is much more lively than usual.

"Daddy, I'm hungry." Lele hugged his father's arm and said coquettishly.

The father and daughter set off at five o'clock in the morning, and they didn't have time to eat breakfast, only a little snack with them.

The original plan was to come back for breakfast.

"Let's go, Dad will take you to see if there is a snack bar."

After getting out of the car, Xu Dong took the two sisters along the shop area, and after walking around for a long time, they didn't find any places to sell food.

Lele shouted bitterly: "Dad, let's go home!" ”

Coco also has a bitter gourd face.

"Let's take a look at the stall area again, and we'll go back after that." Xu Dong coaxed.

"Okay, Dad, you're going to talk and count." Lele said with a drumming face.

The father and daughter came to the stall area, where there were more crowds, and Xu Dong was holding a daughter in one hand, for fear that the sisters would be separated.

After walking around for more than ten minutes, Xu Dong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he actually found something amazing.

"Coco, Lele, what do you think it is?"

Coco looked in the direction of her father's arm, and it turned out that he was selling shells, but the shells looked a little ugly and not good-looking at all.

"Dad, what kind of shell is that?"

"Well, this is an oyster, you can eat it, can Dad buy it back for you to taste?" Xu Dong explained with a smile.

In the past, the conditions at home were not good, and I rarely ate seafood, and occasionally I ordered a few scallop vermicelli at the barbecue stall.

"Okay." Lele nodded hurriedly.

Xu Dong stepped forward and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this oyster?" ”

The stall owner was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a sunhat, dark skin, and a faint smell of the sea.

"Don't sell it, one oyster for a pound of corn flour, or half a pound of rice."

Xu Dong frowned: "You're too expensive, isn't it, can't you exchange a pound for a pound?" ”

"Big brother, I finally recovered this oyster from the beach, and it took me several hours to get here, so let me make some hard money!"

"How much does this oyster weigh yours?"

"Each one is more than four taels, don't worry, I specially picked a big one to bring it to sell, and the one that is too small can't be sold at a price." The stall owner flattered.

"How many are in this bucket?"

"It's 38 in total."

Xu Dong thought for a while and said simply: "I've got it all, a total of 30 catties of corn flour, what do you think?" ”

The stall owner was a little hesitant.

"When the temperature gets higher and higher, you won't sell it now, and when the oysters die of fever, it won't be able to sell at a high price." Xu Dong persuaded.

"You can add a little more, if it's only 30 pounds, I won't even be able to earn back the fare." The stall owner called Qu Dao.

"Then the fixed price, 32 catties, this is my last reserve price." After Xu Dong finished speaking, he pulled the sisters to leave.

The stall owner hurriedly agreed: "Okay, 32 catties is 32 catties, we can trade now." ”

Xu Dong nodded with satisfaction, then said to the stall owner, and went back to the car to take 32 catties of corn flour.

Ten minutes later, the transaction was completed, and the stall owner gave Xu Dong even a bucket of water.

Driving back, Lele shouted to eat garlic oysters as soon as they got out of the car, and just in the car, Dad showed them a food video about garlic oysters, which made the sisters hungry.

Mother Xu took the bucket with a smile, and the third child in her family was looking for food, but she really didn't have to say anything.

……

In the afternoon, Xu Dong went to attend Datou's wedding alone, Datou's family conditions were not good, and he didn't even have a wedding room, so he didn't bring the children over this time.

The wedding venue was chosen in a hotel, and the big head directly chartered a suite, anyway, there are not many relatives on both sides, and a suite is enough.

When I arrived at the place, in addition to the bride and groom in the suite, all the colleagues from the north gate came, and Xu Dong thought that the big head had notified the wrong time and came early.

He called the big head aside and asked quietly: "Big head, what's the situation, why haven't any of your mother-in-law's people arrived?" ”

"Boss, Bai Li and her family can't come." The big head had a bitter face.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Dong frowned and asked, won't there be any bloody bride price drama?

"Alas!" Big Head scratched his scalp, "Just in the morning, Bai Li, her nephew and niece, were forcibly taken away by the Children's Bureau.

Bai Li's parents and sister-in-law were all arrested because of the obstruction, Bai Li and I went out to buy things in the morning, so we didn't get involved, otherwise the wedding probably wouldn't have been done. ”

"Children's Bureau?"

As soon as Xu Dong heard this, he knew that something was probably going on, it must be that the physical condition of the two children was not up to standard.

A few days ago, I heard from the big head that the conditions of my mother-in-law's house were very poor, but I didn't expect it to be so bad.

The big head nodded: "Well, the two children are also pitiful, their bodies are seriously malnourished, if you want me to go in, at least I can eat enough." ”

This Xu Dong is not good at commenting, so he had to change the topic:

"When will people be released?"

"I went to ask, I will be locked up for two days, and I will probably be released tomorrow afternoon." The big head replied.

"Then you still have this wedding?"

"Yes, Bai Li's clothes and I are rented, and it costs more than 2,000 yuan a day, and my colleagues are here, so I can't let everyone run for nothing!"

Xu Dong patted Datou's shoulder, Datou had no luck, and he encountered some bad things.

In the end, the wedding of the young couple could only end hastily.

Xu Dong directly wrapped a big red envelope of 2,800 yuan, and also took 600 yuan for Xiang Xin.
