I returned to my hometown after winning the koi lottery.

Chapter 41 Worrying about gains and losses

Do you know what President Li's mother thinks about this matter? Several people pricked up their ears. The tense moment had arrived. They were a little excited, uneasy, and worried about the outcome!

Sister Xiaoyu smiled and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

I don’t know? Sister Xiaoyu gasped, “I’ve never met President Li’s mother.”

So that's how it is. The barber's pole is too hot. Several acquaintances suddenly felt embarrassed to stay. "Mother Xiaotao, I have something to do at home, so I'll go back first."

It was a bit awkward, and Xiaotao’s mother didn’t know what to say. She could only smile awkwardly and say, “Everyone, take your time. Come and play when you have time!”

Everyone quickly agreed, "Okay, okay, we'll definitely come when we have time. Bye, bye."

Sister Xiaoyu saw that the atmosphere was not right and felt a little embarrassed. Did this mean good things but go badly? Looking at Sister Xiaotao's expression, she was fine. As long as the boss was not angry, there was nothing to be afraid of.

I left as well, and Xiaoyu politely said goodbye. I took Abao with me, along with the doghouse, toys, and dog food!

Xiaotao's mother was a little disappointed. Why was the panda dog taken away as well? Could it be that this matter was not as she had imagined? Xiaotao, Xiaotao.

Xiao Tao, who was out delivering gifts, just saw a group of aunties packing a cart full of Mom's treats for Xiao Yu. It made Xiao Yu feel a little awkward and disoriented. She didn't know why. Have the customs and habits in China changed in recent years? Sending soups and water now seems fashionable, packed in lunch boxes with names and phone numbers on them—the only missing piece is a QR code.

Mom called quickly, and Sister Xiaotao said hello to Dad, asked him to pack up Sister Xiaoyu's things, and then went back.

Mom is so worried, Xiaotao! Tell me honestly, are you sure?

What do you mean by "are you sure?" "We haven't even started yet." Xiao Tao didn't dare to say it directly. "I don't know. We just went out to eat and go shopping together."

That’s not bad! Xiao Tao’s mother turned her worries into joy. It should be okay. The boy treats you well, right?

Sister Xiaotao told me the truth and gave me a computer.

That's fine! We've already given her a token of love. Ugh, a computer doesn't count as a token of love. It's just a work device. Xiaotao's mother pressed on, "What else?"

Nothing else? Xiao Taojie still tells the truth, we just go shopping, eat and chat together!

Mom asked, "How do you feel?" Xiao Tao was a little impatient and lost her temper. "I feel fine." Mom, don't ask anymore. We need time to get along. Don't say anything more until everything is clear.

Xiao Tao's mother didn't get angry at all, which shows that she still loves Xiao Tao. Okay, okay, I won't ask, I won't ask. See if Xiao Li has anything he likes to eat. Mom will make it for him and you can send it to him, okay?

No, you can't. Sister Tao is so unreasonable!

You stupid kid, what are you talking about! I told you to send me off, and you're rebelling! It's true that a tiger doesn't show its might, and you can't treat it like a sick cat. Mom is still the same mom, she hasn't changed at all.

I'm doing this for your own good, don't be so rude, and if you ever regret it, don't come crying to me. My mother angrily threw her hands, went into the room, and slammed the door shut with a deafening bang.

Xiao Tao immediately stopped talking. This was typical misogyny. He was unhappy to see Xiao Tao not dating. Just like in high school, when he strictly prevented her from interacting with boys, he had the final say.

Are all parents the same? If they think you can't date, then you can't date. If they think you should get married, then you have to find a partner right away. You can't wait even a minute.

This is how Xiao Taojie is. She doesn't want to stay home, and she didn't want to go home even when she went to college. This is what a family of origin is like!!! Author, bah! This idiot actually thinks this is his family of origin. I'm so angry I can't write anymore. Take a break, come back in ten minutes, and then continue.

Before Sister Xiaotao returned to her room, her mother opened the door again and washed the dishes in the kitchen. She told them not to go to the company dormitory today and to sleep at home. After she said that, the ground shook again, and the bedroom door was in trouble!

Dad came back and saw Sister Xiaotao's expressionless face, so he knew they had quarreled again. He didn't dare to provoke Sister Xiaotao, so he went to knock on the bedroom door. A crying voice came from inside, saying, "I'm not feeling well, you sleep in the guest room."

"Okay! Who did I offend?" Dad scratched his head obediently and went to the guest room. After a while, he came out and gave Xiao Taojie an envelope. Xiao Taojie wiped her hands, took it, and opened it. What was inside? It was all money.

Dad, you have so much private money, give it all to me.

What? They are all old editions in my collection. You can ask President Li to estimate the price and see if it is enough to buy the car with the red panda.

Xiao Tao was very disappointed. What kind of parents are these? Why is my life so miserable?

Sister Tao didn't sleep all night. She turned on her computer, clicked on Tomato Novel Network, went to the Writer's Assistant, entered her password, typed in the title in one breath, and started a new book. A contemporary novel with a strong female protagonist, and my mother is the villain.

I wrote 40,000 words in one go. I couldn't upload it that night, so I put it on Writer's Assistant. When the sun rose, I put down the computer and fell asleep.

Early in the morning, a beautiful mother in her forties opened the door and tiptoed to Xiao Tao's room. Seeing that Xiao Tao was still asleep, she didn't disturb her. She gently closed the door, went to the kitchen, and began to cook porridge. She took a handful of cleaned leeks from the refrigerator and rinsed them again with clean water. She then scalded a bowl of flour, half in hot water and half in cold water. She kneaded the dough and set it aside to rise. Then she took out a few eggs, cracked them, and stirred them. She put a wok on the stove, heated some cold oil, added the eggs, and beat them with chopsticks. She set it aside for later use.

The corn porridge here has already boiled, turn to low heat and cook slowly.

The leeks have been dried. Take them, chop them into small pieces, add sesame oil and mix well. Then add salt (no MSG, just salt), a little pepper, and mix well. Pour the scrambled eggs into the mixture and mix well again. Knead the risen dough until smooth, then pinch it into small pieces. Use a rolling pin to roll them into dough slightly larger than the dumpling wrappers. Add the leek and egg filling and shape them into dumplings. Leave a little oil in the pan, flatten the large dumplings slightly, put them in, and fry them on both sides until golden brown. Remove from the pan and put them in the incubator. Turn off the heat to keep the porridge warm. Then turn off the kitchen light and leave.

Going to buy vegetables at this time is the freshest, so I can give Sister Xiaotao some nutrition. She has been staying in the dormitory and eating takeout all the time. What a poor child!

Arriving at the neighborhood market, the stalls had just started serving their dishes. Lao Yu gave me some bento. Chef Niu, two pounds of tenderloin. Brother Zhu, three pounds of pork belly.

Xiaotao’s mom, we have guests coming to our house, why did you buy so many vegetables?

No, it’s just that my daughter hasn’t been back for a long time, so I want to give her some nourishment!
