Drinking ginger sugar water and looking at the dumplings on the table, Li Xu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Then he called out in his heart, "Tongzi Tongzi, where did you put the New Year gift package?"
It has been more than ten years since the annual leave was cancelled. People don’t even celebrate the New Year, let alone the Minor New Year.
The car team chatted all day long but no one mentioned that today was Little New Year. Li Xu was so excited after signing the electric fan production drawings that morning that he forgot the date for a moment.
Fortunately, the Li family has always had the habit of eating dumplings on the Little New Year.
When he saw the dumplings, Li Xu remembered what he had forgotten.
In the past, the system gave out New Year gift packages on the day of Little New Year.
After calling out several times, Li Xu received no response, which made him feel depressed.
Tongzi won’t refuse to give me the New Year gift package, right?
You know, the gift package contains all good things, which are hard to buy in the market nowadays.
Although Li Xu was happy about the system upgrade, he did not want to cancel the gift package option now.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone calling him, "Xiao Xu, don't just stand there. If you don't eat it, it will get cold."
Coming back to his senses, Li Xu picked up the chopsticks, picked up a dumpling and put it into his mouth.
Du Hong, who was sitting next to him, put her hand on his forehead again to feel his temperature, then checked her own temperature, wondering, "You don't even have a fever, why do you look so absent-minded?"
"I'm thinking about something." Li Xu responded.
"Why think about eating? Think about it after you finish eating."
Li Xu nodded and started eating.
He planned to sign in again after midnight.
If there is still no New Year gift package, he will scold Tongzi.
After returning from Li's house and lying on the bed, Li Xu soon felt that he could not open his eyes.
However, he forced himself not to sleep and insisted on checking the sign-in results.
Fortunately, Tongzi was kind enough to let him sign for a big New Year gift package, and the supplies inside were several times more than in previous years.
Especially beef and mutton, the portion has increased more than ten times.
Li Xu was overjoyed and praised Tongzi several times in his heart. Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.
Li Xu still caught a cold after drinking several bowls of ginger and sugar water.
He originally thought that he would be laughed at when he arrived at the company, but he didn't expect that he was not the only one who caught a cold. Half of the people in the car team were like him, and the remaining half would probably not be able to escape the cold after today.
This made everyone feel embarrassed to laugh at each other, and they all continued to sit in the snow and chat as if nothing had happened.
In the afternoon, everyone who was shivering from the cold learned the good news that the annual leave had been restored.
Everyone stood up from their stools, danced and shouted.
If you don't know the inside story, you would definitely think that they are like this because they are excited about resuming their annual leave.
In fact, they are taking this opportunity to exercise...
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Li Xu took two large bags and several small bags and went out.
One big bag contains pork, beef and mutton, and another big bag contains peanuts, melon seeds, and pastries and snacks.
Li Xu did not take out all the things, but only took a part of them.
But even so, the portion is not light.
He was a person with a cold, but he carried two bags home and almost collapsed from exhaustion.
Watching the Li family members unpacking, Li Xu drank a sip of freshly boiled ginger sugar water and said, "Mom, we got a lot of beef and mutton this time. You can make some for my little sister at noon when we're home."
"Uncle, there's me too." Li Wenbai quickly interrupted.
Li Xu glanced over and asked, "Why, you want to make up for it too?"
Li Wenbai's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
Seeing him like this, Li Xu said angrily, "What the hell are you doing? If you keep filling it up, it will become a ball."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room burst into laughter.
Li Wenbai rarely ate meat during his college years, but he didn't lose weight and gained weight instead.
When he came back a few days ago, Li's family was shocked. They thought he had a health problem and took him to the hospital for a check-up.
Finally, Dr. Zhou said that he was fine and just needed to move around more, and everyone was relieved.
Beef and mutton are rare delicacies, so Li Wenbai certainly couldn't let them go. "Second Uncle, I practice martial arts every morning and evening now, so I can't gain weight."
There were many people in college, and he was worried that he would be seen practicing martial arts and get into trouble, so he never practiced once during school.
However, based on his performance before the college entrance examination, he believed that as long as he continued to practice martial arts, he would soon lose weight.
Since he had said so much, Li Xu had no choice but to give him an excuse, "You can eat, but you can't eat more than your aunt."
Li Xu knew Li Ju's personality too well. If he didn't say it in advance, Li Ju would definitely let Li Wenbai eat most of the dishes and only eat a small part herself.
"No problem." Li Wenbai agreed without thinking.
As this was Li Ju's exclusive treatment, he was already very satisfied to be able to have it, and it didn't matter if he ate less.
Sun Xiu thought for a moment and continued, "Tomorrow I'll make some mutton soup and stir-fry some beef, and we'll have it tonight."
Everyone nodded excitedly.
The weather is so cold, drinking a mouthful of hot mutton soup is a great enjoyment.
Seeing the snacks and pastries being taken out, Li Xu asked Li Ju, Li Ruike, Li Leyun and Li Xiumin to take a few boxes back to the room.
Li Ju was fine, but the three little girls were so happy that their eyes narrowed and they hurried forward to choose.
This made the boys drool with envy.
But even so, no one asked for it.
Because they know that they can't get...
In the next few days, Li Xu did not sign out the production drawings again, but signed out things like food and milk powder.
