Xie's lunch is very simple. The word "simple" is an overstatement to describe it. The word "satisfying hunger" is undoubtedly more appropriate. Google search reading

Eating is no longer about enjoyment, but about survival.

Although Xie's mother also wanted to make it more generous, she had no choice but to have limited conditions. In the end, she simply made a pot of stew with cabbage, radish, potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn flour.

"Er Bao, given the conditions of my aunt's family, they are definitely not as good as yours. Don't mind!"

"Auntie, what are you talking about? It's already very rich!"

Erbao said politely.

Xie Dailin helped classmate Xu fill a large bowl of porridge and pressed it with a spatula. The portion was very generous.

"Enough, enough." Erbao shouted quickly, "I don't have a big appetite, half a bowl is enough."

"You're welcome at Auntie's house. Auntie specially cooked some extra rice for lunch. There won't be enough for more."

Mother Xie persuaded with a smile.

"Thank you, aunt!"

Erbao had no choice but to take over the rice bowl. Although his appetite was not small, it was with vegetables and meat. Such a big bowl of "white rice" was simply terrible.

Mother Xie looked pleased: "Eat quickly!"

Erbao pretended to be impatient, picked up Kuaizi and drank the porridge on the spot. While eating, he also praised Xie's mother for her good cooking skills.

In fact, it tasted a bit salty and he couldn't get used to it.

Not long after that, Xie's mother began to "check the household registration" intentionally or unintentionally.

"Er Bao, have you got a girlfriend yet?"

Er Bao secretly glanced at Xie Xie: "Not yet, our school doesn't allow dating."

"The school just said it, don't worry about it. It's better to talk to someone if you find someone suitable. You are busy with your work as police officers. If you don't talk about it in college, you won't have time to fall in love in the future."

Xie's mother's meaning was already obvious.

Erbao is an honest child at first glance. He is polite, responsible, has a good personality, and his family conditions are not bad. She fell in love with him at first sight.

Erbao immediately became energetic: "Auntie, to tell you the truth, I actually have a crush in my heart, but I haven't dared to confess for fear of being rejected."

Hearing this, Xie Delin's face turned red and his head almost dropped to the table.

"Brother Xu, are you secretly in love with my sister?"

Xie Delu had no worries and blurted out on the spot.

Erbao smiled, neither confirming nor denying.

Girls are thin-skinned and should not be rushed.

Xie Hao, who was standing next to him, saw that the eldest sister had no reaction. The emperor was not as anxious as the eunuch, so he couldn't help but urge:

"Sister, please agree quickly. Brother Xu is such a nice person, why should you hesitate? If it were me, I would have agreed long ago."

"Ahem..." Erbao almost choked.

"Shut up, a bowl of broth bought you off? Which is more important, the elder sister, or eating meat?"

Xie Delin said angrily.

Xie Hao smiled and said: "It's equally important."

"What's with the broth?"

Mother Xie asked immediately.

Xie Delin immediately told the story of Classmate Xu's treat, and finally said helplessly: "I tried to persuade them just now, but it's a pity that the three of them didn't listen to me."

"Xiao Hao, Xiao Lu, why are you two so ignorant? If you want to eat meat, you can tell your mother. At home, we just sell iron..."

"Mom, we were wrong."

Xie Delu quickly admitted her mistake.

Although Xie Hao was a little reluctant, he could only bow his head and admit his mistake. Given his family's conditions, the three siblings were not qualified to be willful.

Erbao quickly took the matter on himself: "Auntie, I took the initiative to treat you, and it's none of their business. If you want to scold me, just scold me!"

"Er Bao, it's not easy for you to save some money. It's enough to take them both to the amusement park to play. You don't have to spoil them."

Thank you for your sincere words.

She heard from her eldest daughter about the consumption level in the store. The cheapest broth costs thousands of yuan, which is beyond what their family can afford.

Erbao nodded in agreement and winked at Xiaolu and Xiaohao. The two siblings immediately understood and secretly made an "ok" gesture.

Ignore this matter,

Mother Xie continued to inquire:

"Er Bao, I heard from our Dai Lin that your family has a large population?"

"Yes! Including my grandparents, there are a total of nine people in our family. I am the fourth eldest child in the family, with two sisters and one brother.

"Mom, Erbao... Xu Wanshang, his elder brother and younger brother are triplets. Do you think it's unusual?"

Xie Delin added immediately.

"Triples? Erbao, where do your eldest brother and your youngest brother go to school?"

Mother Xie asked casually.

"My eldest brother is at the University of Sydney. He is a sophomore this year like me. My younger brother is studying at Xia Qing University in Qiongdao, and I am just a little behind." Erbao said modestly.

"Actually, the police academy is not bad. Once you graduate, you will have an iron job." Xie's mother shook her head, "So, you three brothers are all pretty good, right? You all have a lot to offer."

"Haha... not bad!"

In order not to reveal his identity, Erbao could only make excuses.

"Where are your two sisters?"

Mother Xie continued to ask.

"My eldest sister and second sister both graduated from the University of Sydney. My eldest sister started a small business after graduation. My second sister works in a state-owned enterprise and just got married at the beginning of the year."

"It's incredible, you five siblings are so impressive!" Xie's mother turned to look at her two children: "Xiao Lu, Xiao Hao, do you two hear that? You will learn from your brother Xu in the future. uu read a book"

"knew."

The siblings' academic performance is actually pretty good, but it's not easy to get into a key university.

Next, Xie's mother asked a few more irrelevant questions, and Erbao answered them one by one.

Finally, it was the most critical question:

"Erbao, what does your dad do for a living?"

Erbao's scalp was numb, and he could only avoid the main point:

"My dad is in business..."

"Really? What kind of business is he in? How is his income?"

"Mom? Why are you asking this? The household registration check is not so detailed?"

Xie Dailin quickly interrupted.

Erbao's eyes rolled, and a plan came to mind: "Auntie, my dad's business is quite diverse. Basically, he does whatever makes money. The income is pretty good. Anyway, my siblings and I have never been hungry since we were young."

"That's really rare!"

Xie's mother finally showed a satisfied smile.

These days, if you can avoid hunger, such a living standard is definitely higher than more than 90% of families, and it is not a loss for your daughter to marry into it.

Finally, after being fed by Xie's mother and Xie in turn, Erbao was full.

After the meal, according to her mother's instructions, Xie Dailin personally sent Xu to the gate of the community.

Before leaving, Erbao finally plucked up the courage.

"Hey, there is something I have been holding in my heart for a long time."

"You...what do you want to say?"

Xie Dailin's face was slightly red.

Just now at home, the two sides were about to make their relationship clear. At this time, she had roughly guessed what the other party wanted to say.

Erbao went straight to the point: "Xie, I like you, are you willing to be my girlfriend?"
