My courtyard shelter

Chapter 79: Grasping the One-Year-Old

After lunch, Xu Dong immediately went to the cake shop to pick up his birthday cake, and then went to Panjiayuan again. Anyway, since he was here, it would be a loss if he didn't go around.

Passing by the street stall area, he bought a chicken.

Then in the store area, Xu Dong finally encountered good things, three snakes with their heads and skins removed. Maybe because of the rat infestation, the snakes grew thick and long.

"Boss, what kind of snake is this?" Xu Dong asked curiously.

"Black-necked snake, don't worry, it's a non-venomous snake."

"Where did this snake come from?"

The boss smiled and answered, "I got it from the farm. Snake meat is the most nutritious. Do you want one?"

Xu Dong curled his lips secretly. It must be a lie. In this kind of drought, the farm would have closed long ago.

This snake should have been caught in a community. As the drought continues, many wild animals, including various snakes, are forced to migrate to the city.

"How much is one?" Xu Dong asked directly. Snake meat is indeed very nutritious, and it is also good to buy it back to nourish the body of the family.

"Each of these snakes weighs more than three pounds. I will not lie to you. Seven thousand yuan per snake, absolutely honest price." The boss laughed.

Xu Dong tried to ask: "How much is three together?"

"Then round off the fraction, you just give 20,000 yuan." The boss said simply.

"Pack it for me, use a black bag." After saying that, he transferred the money to the boss with his mobile phone.

After taking the snake meat, Xu Dong did not plan to shop anymore, and simply went home directly.

...

After entering the yard, Xu Dong first put the chickens he bought into the chicken coop, and when he had enough five, he would make them into air-dried chickens together, which would save trouble.

Then, he sneaked into the kitchen with the bag of snake meat.

The snake meat must not be seen by the twins. The little girl is most afraid of snakes, and it might leave a psychological shadow.

"Mom..."

Mother Xu was peeling chestnuts and was startled by the sound. When she reacted, she scolded Xu Dong.

Xu Dong quickly handed over the black bag: "Mom, keep your voice down, don't wake up Keke and the others. I bought three snakes. Please deal with them quickly and add a dish to the evening."

"Snake meat? What snake?" Mother Xu took the bag and looked at it.

"Black-necked snake."

Mother Xu patted her chest: "Fortunately, this snake is not poisonous. When your father and I were young, we ate it a few times at your grandfather's house. The taste is similar to chicken."

"Mom, you can cook snake meat, right?"

Mother Xu nodded: "Snake meat has a strong fishy smell. It's best to braise it with chicken. We only need one to eat in the evening. The remaining two will be put in the refrigerator and eaten in a few days."

"Okay, you decide."

Time soon came to the evening. Mother Xu and Yang Lina cooked a full table of food. The situation has not been good in recent months. In order to keep a low profile, no outsiders were invited this time.

As the absolute protagonists of the night, the triplets all changed into brand new clothes and wore a small crown on their heads, which was provided by the cake shop.

Xu Dong took out his camera and took a family photo first, and then took many photos of the children, which will be beautiful memories in the future.

After taking photos, dinner officially began.

There were a total of ten dishes and one soup on the table, half of which were meat and half were vegetarian. There was nothing special about the vegetarian dishes, which were all grown in their own vegetable garden;

The meat dishes included chicken with chestnuts, steamed shrimps, sweet and sour spare ribs, tofu with bacon, and finally a dish of chicken fried with snake meat.

Before the Coco sisters had dinner, they first peeled a shrimp for each of their brothers. After the triplets ate the shrimp, they were so happy that their mouths were full of oil.

Xu Dong was very pleased to see this scene.

Dad Xu raised his wine glass and clinked it with his son: "Third brother, let's have a drink."

"Dad, I toast you."

After drinking a cup of moss wine, Xu Dong quickly picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it in his mouth. He chewed it a few times and spit out the bones. It tasted really good.

Dad Xu picked up a piece of snake meat and praised it while eating: "It's authentic, and it tastes the same as what I've eaten before."

Seeing that his grandfather was eating with relish, Lele also picked up a piece of snake meat: "Grandpa, what kind of meat is this? Why is it so black?"

"This is the meat of black chicken."

"What kind of chicken is black chicken?"

"Black chicken is a black chicken. Chicken meat is all black. It tastes very good. If you don't believe it, try it yourself." Dad Xu bewitched.

Lele gently bit the "black chicken" meat and felt that there was nothing special about it. It was no different from chicken. After eating a piece, he didn't eat any more.

After dinner, the ceremony of grabbing the week officially began.

In the middle of the living room, there was a large carpet, and the carpet was filled with various items.

There were all kinds of toys, banknotes, abacus, sword, dictionary, Yang Lina's cosmetics, Mercedes-Benz car keys, fountain pen, Xu's company seal, etc., which were placed densely.

Dabao was the first to have the one-year-old ceremony.

"Dabao, my dear grandson, choose the seal quickly, grandpa's company will be left to you in the future." Xu's father pointed at the seal and urged.

His son was not worth relying on, and he had no ambition at all. Xu's father thought it would be better to train his grandson. Now that he had a career to fight for, he felt that he would have no problem living for twenty years.

Dabao listened to his grandfather very much, grabbed the seal, and then giggled excitedly.

Xu's father went forward and picked up his grandson, kissed him on the face several times, and praised him: "My Dabao is so good, much more than your father."

Xu Dong was a little embarrassed. In order to ease the atmosphere, he quickly put Erbao on the carpet:

"Erbao, to win your father's honor, choose that dictionary. Dad hopes you will be a learned person."

Unfortunately, Erbao was very disrespectful. He held the banknotes in his left hand and the big sword in his right hand, but did not choose the dictionary, which made Xu Dong a little disappointed.

The last person to appear was Xiaobao. Xiaobao had been in poor health since he was a child. His family did not have too many requirements for him, but only hoped that he could grow up safely.

Xiaobao was very "competitive" and fell in love with the car key at first sight. He was destined to be a rich man.

"My Xiaobao will definitely have a bright future in the future. Grandma is waiting to enjoy Xiaobao's blessing." Xu's mother joked with a smile.

Lele was not happy and interrupted, "Grandma, you can also enjoy my blessing. I will be filial to you and grandpa when I grow up."

Mother Xu almost laughed to tears and joked:

"Okay, Lele is also a good child. Then you have to grow up quickly and don't let grandma wait too long."

Lele nodded solemnly, "Grandma, don't worry. I won't be picky about food in the future and I will grow up quickly."

"Mom will remember what you said. You must sit down!" Yang Lina took the opportunity to confirm.

"Hmm!" Lele pouted, "Mom doesn't believe me, then we'll see."

Amidst the laughter and scolding, the Zhuazhou ceremony finally ended. The excitement of the triplets passed and they yawned soon.
