Chapter 17 Specialties

Xu Hongdou's father was watering flowers at home when he saw his wife coming in with a package from outside and asked, "What are you buying again?"
"The red beans are sent."
"What's it?"
Hongdou's mother said: "It should be a specialty in Yunnan. I'll open it and take a look!"
Hongdou's father said, "It's not that I haven't bought it before, and we don't like it. You can tell the children about it and don't let them waste money anymore."
"I don't like it yet. I think you didn't lose a bite when you ate it."
Father Xu said, "If you don't eat this, I won't eat it, and this thing will be wasted."
"Then you have to tell people about their food without your conscience, and you're sending it again."
"The kids have bought it all. If you look back and say it doesn't taste delicious, the kids should be upset. Do you know what this is called? It's called lack of emotional intelligence."
"You have high EQ and I have to say all these bad words, just be a good person."
After opening it, I saw the flower cake and rose sauce inside, and saw the card written by Xu Hongdou. I realized that it was made by my daughter himself. I quickly called my daughter and asked if she needed to heat it up. Then I began to share my daughter's masterpiece with my husband.
The old couple talked about their daughter's affairs while tasting the flower cakes made by their daughter. In fact, they all knew that Chen Nanxing's affairs had a great blow to their daughter, otherwise they would not have suddenly taken leave to take a vacation.
You should know that your daughter is a very strong person. She is always in the capital for work and has no time to go home except for some time off.
"Old Xu, when will this red bean come out?"
"It's okay, my daughter goes out to relax and will be over after a while."
"Oh, this Hongdou is not Redmi. Although our eldest daughter is also a strong woman, at least she is married and there are people around her taking care of her. It's not like Hongdou alone. In the past, Nanxing went to see her, but now she really has to rely on herself."
Xu's father said, "It's okay. When our daughter finds a boyfriend, someone will care about her. Besides, isn't it that our parents care about her?"
"That's different!"
As she was talking, Xu's mother started to put the flower cakes and rose sauce mailed by Xu Hongdou into the refrigerator. After all, this flower cake has high sugar content. She and her husband are so old that they have a little high blood sugar. They can't eat too much, so they should just put it in the refrigerator and eat it slowly.
After taking out all the things, I found that there was actually a photo inside, and there was still a man on it.
"Old Xu, come and see, who is this man?"
Father Xu walked over and took a look, and said, "Where did it come from?"
"Just in the box that Hongdou sent us, you said this wasn't Hongdou's boyfriend, right?"
"Impossible? If Hongdou has a boyfriend, shouldn't he tell us? Besides, even if it's her boyfriend, how can we explain this photo, we can't see it, right? I think it must be brought in by the express delivery company, so Hongdou doesn't know him at all."
When Xu's mother heard her husband say this, she thought it made some sense, but she was still a little skeptical, thinking that it would be better to ask her daughter by herself.
In fact, she wanted to ask her daughter who was the man who helped her answer the phone at that time, but later she forgot to ask by chance, and this time she must not forget it.
Xu Hongdou didn't know that she had thrown Zhao Shucheng's photo in the courier box. She also found that the photo was missing, and she thought she had been thrown into the house or was pulled by a kitten, so she reprinted a photo and posted it on the wooden board.
In fact, she gave this flower cake not only to her parents, but also to her sister and Chen Nanxing's parents. However, because Xu Hongmi was a specialty bought by Xu Hongdou, she shared it directly with her colleagues in the company. When she found out that it was made by Xu Hongdou himself, she went to get it back, but there were only two or three pieces left.
She was reluctant to take it back to the office and taste it carefully, thinking that her sister was really different. In the past, Xu Hongdou was always in a hurry and had very strict time management. She didn't expect that she would have the leisure to do such a thing this time.
Time in Youfeng Xiaoyuan seemed to pass very quickly. Before I knew it, it was already evening. Three people who had been leisurely on the recliner for a day also woke up one after another and were ready to have supper.
Of course, the health model of Maqiu Mountain that originally did not eat after noon was completely destroyed, and it was called "not letting oneself be separated from the collective."
Lin Na has also come back from the cafe very early these two days, just to be able to have dinner with everyone.
While having a meal, Lin Na talked about the interesting things she encountered in the cafe. Before she knew it, she said that Xie Xiaoxia went to the cafe to inquire about the magic capital. Sometimes she didn't know what she asked about.
After hearing this, Zhao Shucheng asked, "What did he ask? Is it a famous attraction in the Magic City, or something delicious and fun? Then, after he arrives at the Magic City, wouldn't it be enough to just look at the guide on his phone?"
"No, he asked a lot of things, some food, some fun, and some stocks."
"He is not planning to trade stocks, right?" Ma Qiushan asked worriedly after hearing this.
Lin Na smiled and said, "It shouldn't be. I told him at that time that he is a novice who knows nothing, and he will be a leek in the story. He shouldn't have this thought."
Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "I can't see it. If you say it's untrustworthy, he will probably not believe you, but think you don't understand at all. Besides, he also has a friend from the Magic City. He can't say that he will ask you about stocks, but he is moved by his friend and comes to you to ask if stocks can make money."
"What should I do? He doesn't have much money, so there should be no problem?"
Zhao Shucheng thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I'll call Xie Xiaochun and ask him to look at her brother. Don't let him take away the savings at home, otherwise it won't be a good thing whether it's thrown into the stock market or being cheated."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! After Xie Xiaochun received a call from Zhao Shucheng, she heard that it was because his younger brother asked Lin Na about the stock market, so Zhao Shucheng called to remind himself, and immediately said with a smile: "I know what you said, I will ask Xia Xia."
In fact, she didn't think that her younger brother would take the family's savings, nor did she believe that her younger brother would trade stocks. Instead, she felt that Zhao Shucheng was a little alarmist and even worried about it.
She didn't even go home to ask her younger brother, did not check the family's savings, or asked her mother if Xie Xiaoxia asked her for money. It was precisely because of her disregard for now that Xie Xiaoxia caused a big disaster later.
Xu Hongdou and the others saw Zhao Shucheng calling and said, "Zhao Shucheng, are you a little too frightened? We are just guessing, maybe Xia Xia is just curious?"
"Be careful, there is no big mistake. Moreover, Xie Xiaoxia has never left Yunmiao Village before, and she doesn't know what the outside world looks like. The reason why he wanted to go to the Magic City was also inspired by a netizen. But is this netizen doing the exact thing that he did, and is it really like what he said to be a homestay? Now that there are so many online frauds, he is too honest. If he is really cheated and even cheated of their family's savings, what will happen to the family then?"
Xu Hongdou nodded after hearing this and said, "What you said makes sense, but now I'm telling Xiaochun, there should be no problem. Let's not talk about this anymore. Come on, let's have a drink for the first Sunday we meet here!"
"Okay, cheers!"
At this moment, Xie Zhiyao came to the yard and Zhao Shucheng greeted: "Mr. Xie, why are you busy, so why are you here today? Have you eaten? If you don't eat, you will have some drinks together?"
Xie Zhiyao looked at Zhao Shucheng with a little confused, not understanding why Zhao Shucheng suddenly called him that. Is there any conspiracy?
However, seeing the others in the yard, it didn't seem like there was any conspiracy and said, "I've eaten it, but I can drink it."
After Xie Zhiyao also sat down, Zhao Shucheng asked, "Looking at your frowning look, why? Have you encountered any difficult things? Tell us out and let us have fun."
Xie Zhiyao said, "Old Zhao, you can just laugh at me now."
"What's wrong? It's not that your funding is a problem, right? These are all small problems. Is it necessary to be so sad?"
"It's not a problem of funding, I have a way to solve it. It's my brother's business."
"Your brother? By the way, I remember, your brother Xie Zhiyuan, I have seen him in the village these days. Doesn't he have to go to school? Or does he have not been admitted to high school and have dropped out of school?"
"No, he was in high school in Kunming before, but later my dad sent him home to let him experience life. He knew that life was not easy, and then he begged to go back to school. But this kid didn't know what he thought, but instead fell in love with raising horses and didn't want to go to school."
Xu Hongdou asked curiously: "I just like raising horses, so I don't want to go to school anymore?"
Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "This is also possible. After all, you can be free here. You don't have to get up early to attend classes every day, face exams, or even think about too much. You are free and easy, no one will dislike it."
Xie Zhiyao said: "Yes, but how can you do this without learning?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Actually, have you ever thought that your younger brother doesn't want to go to school, it is likely that it is not only because he is free here, but also because he has other reasons? For example, he is bullied at school, or because he can't keep up with his studies, or because he is not under pressure, or why?"
