Chapter 890 The little guy guarding his food
When Liu Jingxue woke up the next day, she looked at her watch and it was already past nine o'clock.
She got up and dressed, and the noise she made woke up the mother and son.
As Xie Yumei expected, little Tiger, who slept too much yesterday afternoon, was making a fuss until after ten o'clock in the evening and didn't go to bed until almost eleven o'clock.
Xie Yumei got up in the morning to help him urinate, and has been sleeping ever since.
After figuring out the current environment, Xie Yumei regained consciousness and asked confusedly, "Little sister, what time is it now?"
“It’s past nine o’clock.
Sister-in-law, do you want to continue sleeping or get up?"
Xie Yumei touched her stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry.
I can't continue sleeping on an empty stomach, so I better get up.
The state-owned restaurant has long run out of breakfast at this time, and I don’t know if those two people left any breakfast for us.”
They had told them last night that they wanted to sleep in and asked them not to knock on the door and disturb them early in the morning.
Liu Jingxue said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter if we don't leave any, we brought so many snacks.
Eat something to fill your stomach, it will be lunchtime soon anyway."
The three of them put on their clothes, opened the door, and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash up. The noise of opening the door startled Liu Jianguo who was in the opposite room.
He opened the door and came out, “You guys are finally up.
You guys slept for a really long time."
Seeing that he was the only one in the room and Liu Jianjun was nowhere to be seen, Liu Jingxue asked curiously,
"Brother, where is the second brother?"
"He went out early in the morning, saying he was going to do something.
He doesn’t know anyone here, and doesn’t know what to buy.”
Liu Jingxue recalled what Liu Jianjun had discovered when they came to send Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao off last time, and realized that this man was most likely going to ask about the progress of that matter.
However, Liu Jingxue estimated that only twenty days had passed, and it coincided with the Spring Festival, so there might not be much progress.
Since those people have been lurking here, no one knows how long they have been lurking. It is probably a long-term task and it should not be cleared up so quickly.
But there is no need to speak this out, so as not to make Liu Jianguo and his wife worry about it.
She said casually, "Maybe Second Brother has comrades who are from here, and he also has acquaintances here."
Liu Jianguo didn't care much about Liu Jianjun's whereabouts. After all, that man was very capable, so it would be better for him to worry about his wife and children.
They have slept till now and haven't had breakfast yet, so they must be hungry.
"Hurry up and wash up. I've left breakfast for you. It's warming up on the kang," Liu Jianguo urged.
"Then you look after the house. Our luggage is all here. Let's go wash up first."
After the three of them came back after washing up, Liu Jianguo brought the lunch boxes to the room and asked the three of them to eat breakfast quickly.
Breakfast consisted of grits porridge with pickles and cornmeal buns.
Xiao Huzi took a few bites and commented, "This bun has no meat, it's not as delicious as grandma's."
Liu Jianguo teased, "You little brat, you have a very sharp tongue.
Who told you this is a steamed bun? This is a steamed bun, which has no fillings. "
Xiao Huzi frowned when he heard this and loudly questioned Liu Jianguo,
"Where is the big meat bun that grandma brought me?
Dad, didn't you and Uncle ate it secretly while we were sleeping?"
He opened his eyes wide, drew a big circle in the air with his hands, and said angrily,
"You two finished that big bag of meat buns, and didn't leave any for me?"
With tears in his eyes, Xiao Huzi complained to Liu Jingxue, "Aunt, Dad and Second Uncle are so mean, they ate up all my meat buns.
Grandma said it was for me to eat.
There were also several cans of meat, all mine, which I also didn’t see.”
Liu Jianguo knocked his son's head in annoyance as he was complaining, "Who ate your buns? They're still there.
There's no place to keep warm here, so I'm thinking about the buns and canned meat I'll save for eating in the car.
When the time comes, I’ll steam it with boiling water and give it to you.
We'll be on the train for a few days, and you've become a bit of a picky eater these days. If I don't leave you some food, what will I do if you make a scene on the train?"
She hit the brat on the head again, causing him to burst into tears, “Besides, your grandma didn’t say that this was for you alone to eat, she said it was for us to eat on the way.
Your mother, your second uncle and I all have a share.
You don't like eating alone."
When Xiao Huzi heard this, he quickly raised his hand to wipe away his tears, "So Baozi is still here, I was so scared."
Liu Jingxue quickly reminded, "Xiao Hu, auntie reminds you, when you are on the train, don't randomly shout "I want to eat meat buns" or "I want to eat meat sauce".
If other people hear this, the other passengers on the bus will ask you for food one by one, and all the food will be shared out in an instant, and you will have nothing to eat.
We have to eat secretly and not make any noise.
Especially in front of other children, you must not show off.
They will be jealous and ask your parents for it."
When Xiao Huzi heard this, he quickly covered his mouth and said, "Aunt, I definitely won't shout.
There is a kid in our housing estate who is so annoying. He just stares at other people's houses and waits for whichever family is eating meat. He won't go home and can't be driven back no matter how hard you try.
I don’t even want to play with them.”
Hearing this, Liu Jingxue looked at Xie Yumei curiously, "Sister-in-law, do you still have such people?"
Xie Yumei smiled bitterly, "Why not?
I didn’t know this before, and I got fooled once or twice, and was trapped and eaten.
The child was staying at home and was not satisfied after eating two pieces. He brought the adults over to ask for more.
After coming here, he started crying poor and acting like an old man. I didn't know how to get rid of him.
Later I learned my lesson and secretly steamed the meat in the rice, closing the doors and windows tightly to ensure that the smell did not escape.
After eating meat, I had to rinse my mouth before going out, and I also told Xiaohuzi not to tell anyone what he had eaten at home after he went out.
"Otherwise, you sent us so much meat, but I'm afraid there won't be much for you to eat."
"Not only that, every time you send a package, someone will come to your house to ask what you sent."
Liu Jingxue felt a little scared after hearing this. Fortunately, she insisted on not joining the army, otherwise how would she live?
"Fortunately, our family compound is not a building, and it is not next to each other, otherwise it would be impossible to live here."
Liu Jingxue agreed with this. It seemed that if she returned to the city in the future, she would have to find a way to get a separate yard to live in. She couldn't live with other people. Otherwise, how could she afford to eat meat and good food?
"Then when I send you things in the future, I will use mountain products to cover the outside and hide the bacon inside. Even if others see it, it doesn't matter."
Liu Jianguo said proudly, "I have experience now, and I usually bring the packages back after dark.
No one saw it.”
Seeing how he was showing off, Xie Yumei said, "It was my mom who reminded you of this.
Otherwise you would have thought of this.”
Liu Jianguo played dumb and pretended he didn't hear anything.
Liu Jingxue pretended not to see the couple's play and ate her breakfast peacefully. She also called Xiaohuzi and asked him to eat quickly as well.
After ten o'clock, Liu Jianjun finally came back, and Liu Jingxue found an opportunity to ask him about the situation.
"Second brother, did you go to the Public Security Bureau to ask about the Japanese spy?"
Liu Jianjun nodded and said, "They have sent people to keep an eye on us, but we haven't figured out their purpose yet.
This matter won’t be resolved in a short time. I have already told them to let me know when there is a result.”
This was just as Liu Jingxue had expected, so she didn't say much.
"By the way, Mingxuan's friend returned the house two days ago. It seems he listened to our advice.
The Public Security Bureau plans to arrange for someone to rent the house and move in after a while so that they can monitor the spies nearby."
Liu Jianjun instructed, "When Mingxuan and the others come back, tell them not to contact that friend recently, so as to avoid leading the people behind to the Red Star Production Team.
It’s not that we are cruel, but since it concerns our parents, we have to be careful.”
Liu Jingxue nodded, "Don't worry, I will tell them.
Besides, Grandpa Wu is still there. Even if they don’t consider uncle and aunt, they have to think about Grandpa Wu.
They are both very sensible, so you don't have to worry too much."
Liu Jianjun nodded, this was true.
Seeing Liu Jianguo coming over, Liu Jianjun immediately changed the subject.
"Little sister, remember to keep an eye on the Wang family's affairs in your production team.
Now that we have discovered it, we can’t let those two little girls really be sold by that family.”
Liu Jianguo, who was walking over, heard this and immediately said, "Yes, Lao Er is right.
Little sister, you have to keep an eye on this matter.
He also wrote to tell us the follow-up results. ”
"Since we both knew this, and we listened to you and didn't report it to the police immediately to have the man arrested, we would feel guilty if we let the family get what they wanted.
It’s even more unfair to the skin we wear.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Jingxue readily agreed, "Brother, rest assured, I will keep an eye on this matter.
I will definitely not let that family get what they want."
