It's completely dark.

Jiang Ping'an and Liang Ladi's family sat together to eat, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

In the evening we had steamed buns made from Erhe noodles.

Plus braised carp, spicy and sour potato shreds and egg soup.

"The food provided by the grain station has been getting worse and worse recently," Liang Ladi said.

"A lot of the grain is moldy and infested with insects. It is clearly the bottom grain that has been cleaned out from the grain warehouse."

"If the portion is not enough, replace it with the same amount of moldy dried sweet potatoes."

Jiang Ping'an took a bite of food, nodded and said:

"It's not like this here, it's similar across the country."

"I have been traveling all over the country in the past few months. Everywhere I go, I will investigate the local situation."

"To be honest, our capital is pretty good. The good and bad can at least buy food."

“Farmers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, known as the land of plenty, have been moved to mountainous areas in large numbers.”

"Because as a farmer in a mountainous area, the quota for grain collection is lower."

After a pause, he took a bite of the steamed bun and continued:

"As for the decline in food quality, there is nothing we can do about it."

"Grain production has been severely reduced in recent years. Can we not use the stocks to eat?"

Liang Ladi nodded slightly, pursed her lips and said:

"Fortunately, with your help, we still have Erhe noodles at home."

"The living conditions are getting better and better, otherwise I would have to humble myself and beg others."

A widow with a child is sometimes very specific.

Even if her salary is high enough, food is rationed.

What should I do if I don’t have enough food? Don’t be so shameless as to beg others?

But once you seek help from others, right and wrong will come out.

Even if nothing happens, someone will say something to her as a widow.

But she could only stare.

If you really want to make a fuss with others, your rationality will become unreasonable.

Therefore, Jiang Pingan helped her family.

Not only did they survive, but they also survived with dignity.

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said: "With our relationship, we don't have to speak the same language as one family, so don't be so polite."

As he spoke, he looked at the three children and continued:

"You train these kids well, and I like them too."

"I am willing to give them some delicious food every now and then."

Damao said happily: "Godfather, we like you too!"

The other two agreed, saying that Jiang Ping'an was as amiable as his father.

Jiang Pingan laughed loudly, Liang Ladi rolled her eyes and suggested:

"How about you call him Dad Jiang from now on?"

"Dad Jiang!" Da Mao blurted out, staring at him with bright eyes.

"Dad Jiang!" Ermao and Sanmao said in unison, all of them beaming with joy.

"Okay, okay! They're all good!" Jiang Pingan was delighted.

I feel unspeakably satisfied.

Although these children are not my own, they are heart-warming.

After all, it was Liang Ladi who taught me the best, being diligent, sensible and polite.

They are still young, but they also know how to love others.

Unlike the children of Qin Huairu's family.

Especially the dog that is Bangge, if you treat him a little better, he will kick his nose in his face.

The better you treat him, the more he takes it for granted.

He is a typical person who refuses to let go and is the master of backsliding. His words and deeds are chilling.

Jiang Ping'an didn't care whether the children understood it or not, he said to them sincerely:

"Since you all call me dad, I will treat you as my own children from now on."

"No matter how you live in other people's homes, you will be no worse than others, or even better."

"The only thing is that you must study hard and become educated so that you can stand out in the future."

Damao nodded fiercely and said: "We all listen to Father Jiang, study hard and serve the country."

Ermao Sanmao echoed. These two are still young and don't know that studying is also very hard.

Liang Ladi said happily: "After all, there must be a man in the family, and the children can also rely on them."

"Now that we are close, you can come over when you have time. Just treat this place as your own home."

"I don't expect you to bring things over often, there's no need."

"As long as you have enough to eat these days, don't be too demanding."

Talking and laughing, after finishing the meal, several children rushed to wash the dishes.

Liang Ladi said hello a few times, and then she and Jiang Ping'an entered the cubicle to feed Xiu'er.

This girl is even more lovable. When she saw Jiang Pingan, she reached out for a hug.

Jiang Ping'an laughed and took Xiu'er, making her giggle.

Liang Ladi took a bowl of porridge, fed it to Xiu'er, and said:

"The only bad thing here is that the house is too small."

"I'm also looking for a house recently and plan to rent a bigger one."

"In this case, it would be more convenient for you to come over and spend the night."

Jiang Ping'an nodded and asked, "Do you need my help?"

As for bringing Liang Ladi to the small courtyard, he never thought about it.

Just let Yu Li and Yu Haitang go over there.

Usually when they are around, they can help with cleaning.

If other women are brought in, the situation will be overturned at some point if they are not kept safe.

"That's not necessary. I've already told the street that there will be news in the next few days." Liang Ladi replied.

After a pause, she smiled meaningfully and said, "My salary is higher now and I have less pressure."

"If you are willing, I still want to give you a child while you are young."

Jiang Ping'an muttered: "I have nothing against it. The key is how you will tell the outside world when the time comes."

Speaking of which, even if Chen Xueru found someone with the surname Jiang, their children in the future could also be surnamed Jiang.

We had agreed in advance that we would pay a deposit of 100 yuan for the certificate.

After the child is born and registered in the household, a final payment of 300 yuan will be made.

The total cost of four hundred yuan was nothing to Chen Xueru.

Both of them have urban registered residence, which is convenient, and Xu Huizhen accompanied them to get the certificate.

Xu Huizhen's situation is easier to deal with, even though she is apparently married to Cai Quanwu.

However, after the child is born in the future, the surname Jiang can be directly registered.

This matter was also discussed with Cai Quanwu, so his ancestor's surname was Jiang.

However, the next child, regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, will have the surname Cai. This is also Cai Quanwu's request.

Hearing this, Liang Ladi hesitated and said: "There is a master named Jiang in our factory..."

Jiang Ping'an was speechless and followed Liang Ladi's idea, which was the same as Chen Xueru's.

After finishing speaking, Liang Ladi said anxiously: "Don't worry, I will only argue with him about the evidence. We will get divorced after the child is born."

Jiang Ping'an didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and nodded: "Okay, I'll do as you say!"

Liang Ladi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master Jiang has fought in a war before and was injured. He has no children."
