"Catch fish!" Jing Ling shouted, one foot still wearing a shoe, and he was about to jump into the water.

Jia Tao, the lobby manager who was leading the way, was startled. He quickly squatted down and caught Jing Ling at the critical moment. At the same time, he explained: "Mr. Xia, there are wires here and it's not safe."

"Pah!" Luo Xiyun came over and slapped his son directly, and said to him: "If you stretch your feet again, I will beat you."

But this kid was still laughing when he was beaten and didn't take it seriously at all.

Zhao Ting also quickly brought his son Zhao Zhengguang back.

They knew what Jia Tao said was correct, but they didn't expect this just now. They also knew that the wires here were all waterproof, but what if something happened?

Who can be sure that the wires are not aging or leaking?

"Manager Jia, let's go to the room first." Xia Zekai said.

After receiving the order, Jia Tao quickly led the way, fearing that if he continued to waste time here, something would really happen to these little ancestors in their hotel, and he couldn't bear it when the time came.

Arriving at the door of the room, Jia Tao opened the door and let Xia Zekai and the others in.

This time, Luo Xiyun and several sisters-in-law, cousins, and younger siblings took the order.

In the words of Xia Zekai and others, they can eat anything from salty to spicy to sweet, meat or vegetable. However, women and children are different and have too many taboos.

Before we even started ordering, Jing Ling started shouting: "Mom, I want some ice cream."

Luo Xiyun said with a sullen face: "It's winter now. What kind of ice cream do you want to eat? You're not afraid of freezing your belly."

Jing Ling shook his head: "I watched a big brother eating on TV."

"What TV? I'll block it later." Xia Zekai said.

Luo Xiyun supported her husband's idea and nodded: "Zekai, hurry up and act."

The other brothers all watched the excitement without taking it too seriously and supported his decision. They all said that this was called domineering.

But the lobby manager Jia Tao, who was waiting for Luo Xiyun and the others to order in the room, did not dare to answer the conversation for fear that he would suddenly say something wrong.

Swiping his fingers on the tablet, he ordered some dishes that were noted as 'special dishes' on the menu. Luo Xiyun suddenly saw a dish called fried ice cream, and asked Jia Tao to find out if the fillings inside were really a few degrees below zero.

The ice product that had solidified was actually the homemade jam in their hotel, so I felt relieved.

After looking at my son and 10 other children, I finally ordered three portions of this dish.

She asked her two sisters-in-law, cousin and younger siblings to each add some dishes. She finally added some more and said to Jia Tao: "Manager Jia, except for the fried ice cream, the other three tables will serve dishes according to this standard."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Jia Tao went out.

A group of people sat down at separate tables. Except for Chenchen, Jing Ling, Qingyu, Zhao Zhengguang and Xia Rongting, the remaining six little guys who could feed themselves sat at one table.

Mother Zhou Yinghong and Mrs. Li Liyun, mother-in-law of second brother, were still talking about taking care of the remaining five little ones, and asked daughter-in-law Luo Xiyun and the others to go to dinner first.

"Mom, it's okay. Don't be in a hurry to eat. Just take your time." Luo Xiyun said.

Jia Tao did follow Mr. Lan's instructions and took special care of Xia Zekai and the others. At least the food was served very quickly and the service was very attentive. Only a picky person would be able to find the flaws.

But it's obvious that Xia Zekai's family has not yet reached that level.

The six brothers were eating, drinking, chatting, and laughing heartily when they talked about their proud moments.

"Zekai, after the New Year, are you going to be busy again?" the eldest brother Xia Yunfei asked him.

Xia Zekai nodded: "There are really a lot of things. The two companies, Yichuxing and Toutiao, will raise funds later this year. I will have to go to the capital then."

"There are also some changes at Kelan Chemical. I have to make an announcement."

"Xiaoai Technology will continue to expand production, and the self-built factory will also start construction. I will have to go and take a look then." Xia Zekai counted them on his fingers and found that the most worry-free thing was Qicheng's base camp, Jingtong.

Development Co., Ltd.

There is a group of the most capable generals here, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

"Zekai, do you know what is going on here in the city?" the second brother Xia Yunhui asked.

Xia Zekai was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, his second brother also felt it. He said: "Wang Hongsheng and Yang Chaozheng have different political opinions, and the problems are not big. They are all within control."

"It's not big yet. I feel like if this continues, the two of them will have a falling out sooner or later, and then it will be the common people who will suffer." The uncle also complained.

"Haha, uncle, don't worry." Xia Zekai didn't care.

Some things cannot be stopped just by trying to stop them. Besides, it goes against the laws of natural development and will not end well in the end.

As for Wang Hongsheng and Yang Chaozheng, Xia Zekai feels that one of them will definitely be eliminated in the end, but he prefers that this person be Yang Chaozheng.

Wang Hongsheng is still too young for his age, only in his forties. In Xia Zekai's view, he needs to settle down in his current position for a few years, and Qicheng, the place Wang Hongsheng is most familiar with, is the place he is most familiar with.

Good place.

But what Xia Zekai didn't expect was that even ordinary people like his uncle would feel the competition from above, and this problem was a bit serious.

"I have to tell Lao Wang later and tell him to wake up. Some things should not be rushed." Xia Zekai thought to himself.

He picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Uncle, Dad, today is the Chinese New Year. Let's talk about some happy things and ignore those messy things."

"I'm here to wish you happiness and good health. If you have anything to do, just leave it to our brothers. I promise to do it beautifully for you."

"You are a good talker. Now, your dad and I will drink less. You brothers are not busy today, so just drink more." The uncle Xia Weiguo said.

Xia Zekai nodded: "Okay!"

They said they drank too much, but the six brothers drank a total of 3 kilograms of liquor, which was exactly half a kilogram each, which was really not much.

Finally, each person added two bottles of Green Lansa beer.

After finishing their meal in the hotel, when they returned to the Ziyu Garden Villa area, the eldest brother and the second brother sat there for a while. They wanted to go back to Zhoucheng District to celebrate the New Year together in the evening, so Xia Zekai didn't stop them anymore.

Cousin Zhao Ting's family of three and cousin Zhao Yan's family of three are also going back. Xia Zekai knows that they all have their own affairs. Lao Qi's old parents are still alive, so his cousin probably has to go back to his hometown.

When sending them off, Xia Zekai repeatedly told them to pay attention to safety on the way back and to tell them when they got home.

In the end, only two brothers, Xia Zekai and Xia Zejiang, were left.

Xia Zejiang has no plans to leave tonight.

After asking her mother-in-law Zhou Yinghong to help take care of the child, Shen Jiayi followed her sister-in-law Luo Xiyun to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

I just went to the boutique fresh food market in the morning to buy a variety of fresh meats, as well as half a fan of black pork raised on the mountain, and fresh seafood.

While she was busy working, Luo Xiyun even casually asked her sister-in-law Shen Jiayi: "Jiayi, you had a natural birth, why don't you hurry up and have a second child while you are still young?"

When Zhao Jiarui and Zhao Yan talked about being pregnant with their second child at noon today, Shen Jiayi was also thinking about this matter.

Money is not a problem to them at all, the bigger problem is lack of energy.

Her husband Xia Zejiang is now devoted to the Jiaze Packaging Box Factory.

As the scale of Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. has been continuously expanded, the production capacity of Jiaze Packaging Box Factory has been raised again and again, and it has encountered production capacity constraints.

However, her husband also said that after the completion of the Jingtong Industrial Park, there was a project specially reserved for him to make packaging boxes on a lease basis.

Shen Jiayi didn't want to put more pressure on him at this time.

After hearing her sister-in-law's question, Shen Jiayi told the truth.

"Hey, I thought it was some kind of problem, Jiayi, but you're wrong if you think so." Luo Xiyun said.

"If you want a second child, it won't delay Zejiang's busy work. Just let him be busy. Why don't you get more rest? When we gave birth to the second child, wasn't your eldest brother too busy to stay home?" Luo Xiyun said.

"Sister-in-law, let's discuss it some more," Shen Jiayi said.

"Okay, I'm just thinking that our mother can still take care of your children now. If she waits for another two years, she won't be able to run away." Luo Xiyun was talking about her mother-in-law Zhou Yinghong.

"Treading on the Stars"

In fact, she has already passed the threshold of sixty now, and it is difficult for her to take care of the children at this time.

When Shen Jiayi heard what her sister-in-law said, she was a little at a loss. Her eldest sister-in-law had given birth to 5 children, and she didn't ask her mother-in-law to help take care of them. If she troubled her mother-in-law again, what would her eldest sister-in-law think?

Luo Xiyun is a genius. When she heard that there was no movement next to her, she glanced at Shen Jiayi, her good sister-in-law who was in a daze, and said with a smile: "Jiayi, you don't have to think too much about anything else. I have three nannies to help look after her.

, and it didn’t tire me out either.”

"Sister-in-law, actually I also want to find a confinement nanny when I have my second child." Shen Jiayi said smoothly.

"It's pretty good," Luo Xiyun said with a smile.

…

In the living room outside, Xia Zekai and his brother Xia Zejiang were drinking tea and chatting.

Xia Zejiang took the initiative to talk about the production capacity problem at Jiaze Packaging Box Factory. Xia Zekai asked him: "Last time I asked you to go to Mr. Lu to confirm the 'Jingtong Industrial Park' packaging box factory project, did you ask? What?"

When will it be completed?”

"Brother, I've already asked. The equipment installed in this factory is relatively simple. If we go quickly, it will be ready for use in March or April this year." Xia Zejiang's face was filled with gratitude.

Although this project charged him a rental fee of 4 cents per square meter, which was 2 cents more expensive than when he rented Liu Jiwu's factory area, in Xia Zejiang's view, he also got a big advantage.

Not to mention the land covering an area of ​​over 200 acres, let’s just say that the layout of the factory is completely based on the layout of the carton factory. He can consider making 'raw paper' here. In this way, his overall production cost

It will all drop a lot. In his opinion, the money saved is not to mention the 2 cent increase in the rental fee, but even a slight increase in the rental fee is acceptable.

Based on the scale of this new project, the lease fee is only 19.4472 million yuan a year, which he can accept.

Xia Zekai pondered and said: "If it's March or April, that's soon. There are only two or three months left. You hurry up and get ready. There will be mass production later. You can't fall behind, otherwise I will be there by then."
