But I didn't expect that my daughter-in-law was by my side and that she was in charge of the family.
"We are not recruiting employees here, so you should find another job!" After Li Chengcheng said this, he walked towards the state-owned hotel with Bai Dashan.
They had been gone for such a long time. Xia Yunlai and the two children had already finished their meal and were sitting there waiting. Seeing Li Chengcheng coming, Xia Yunlai hurried over and asked, "Sister Cheng Cheng, what do you want?"
What to eat?”
"Six steamed buns, one braised pork, one braised fish." Li Chengcheng walked directly towards the little boy and He Tiantian. Now that he had a little follower to help him, Li Chengcheng didn't have to do everything himself.
Soon, Xia Yunlai brought over the lunch that Li Chengcheng asked for.
"Little brother, Tiantian, are you all full? Do you want to eat some more?" Li Chengcheng asked while eating.
Both children shook their heads, but He Tiantian was the only one who spoke, "We are all full, mom, please eat!"
"Tiantian, didn't I say? Call me sister. It's not appropriate for me to be your mother at my age, understand?" Li Chengcheng turned to look at He Tiantian and stressed.
He Tiantian stuck out his tongue playfully, without nodding or shaking his head.
Although Li Chengcheng will be nineteen when the new year is over, He Tiantian is also five years old. It is really inappropriate for He Tiantian to call her mother. No matter how powerful she is, she cannot give birth to a child at the age of fourteen!
This time is not ancient times.
As long as she was seventeen or eighteen years older than He Tiantian, she would agree to He Tiantian calling her mother, mainly because the age difference between the two was too small.
"Yunlai, we bought the breakfast shop diagonally across from the state-owned hotel. It's ours now. It costs thirty yuan a month. Are you willing to come to work?" Li Chengcheng looked at Xia Yunlai and asked.
Although there were many children in the village who helped her dig wild vegetables and pick up small snails, they were still too young. Her family would not trust them to work, at least until they were fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Sister Cheng Cheng, I do." Xia Yunlai was very happy. Thirty a month, more than three hundred a year, which is much more than everyone else earning work points in the fields, so his life is guaranteed.
"But remember to wear a hat or headscarf when the time comes, and try not to expose your face, so as not to be recognized by the people in Anju Village, and then go tell your stepmother that there are many people in the world who don't want you to live a good life.
, even if you don’t have conflicts in normal times, but seeing you living so well, someone will feel unbalanced and want to ruin your good life." Li Chengcheng warned.
If Xia Yunlai's stepmother knew that Xia Yunlai was making so much money now, she would definitely force Xia Yunlai to hand over all the money to her in the name of 'filial piety'.
If she knew that Xia Yunlai had become a money tree, then Xia Yunlai would never want freedom in his life, and they would not even give him the chance to marry a wife.
Xia Yunlai nodded, "Sister Cheng Cheng, thank you for reminding me. I understand."
"As for your household registration certificate, don't worry too much. When you go back, I'll coax your stepmother's child with candy and ask him to take out your household registration certificate and transfer it to you quickly. This way, even if your stepmother finds out, she can't
So, she won't beat her own son to death, right?" Li Chengcheng also knew that Xia Yunlai was anxious about household registration certificate. People tend to make mistakes when they are anxious, and Li Chengcheng was also afraid that he would make mistakes.
Li Chengcheng was eager to get her household registration certificate before, so she could understand Xia Yunlai's inner anxiety.
"Thank you, Sister Cheng Cheng. This matter will trouble you." Xia Yunlai also knew that if he wanted to steal the household registration certificate, he might not be able to succeed. With Sister Cheng Cheng's help, the possibility of success should be greater.
After having dinner at the state-owned hotel, Li Chengcheng and his family of four returned to Anju Village, while Xia Yunlai went to move. Now that he has his own house, he no longer has to live in such a shabby place.
On New Year's Eve, Bai Dashan's grandparents sent someone over and asked Bai Dashan and Li Chengcheng to have New Year's Eve dinner in the evening. Bai Dashan refused, and now it was too late to please him.
When we were so miserable a few years ago, did anyone extend a hand?
When her parents died, Bai Shanshan was only two or three years old. She asked her grandparents to help take care of her, so that Bai Dashan could concentrate on her work. But they were unwilling, so they helped take care of Bai Shanshan, but they didn't want to.
willing.
At that time, Bai Shanshan could walk and talk, so it was not as difficult to take care of as a baby. As long as the manhole cover was covered, the courtyard door was closed, and she was not allowed to run around outside. They were not willing to stare at her even a little.
Now ordinary interactions are fine, but if you want him to take something as a filial piety, that's impossible.
So the New Year's Eve dinner was eaten together as a family of four. Li Chengcheng and Bai Dashan worked together to cook a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, stewed pork ribs with radish, stewed pig's trotters with peanuts, stewed pheasant with potatoes, braised crucian carp, and stir-fried pork liver.
Stir-fried yellow cabbage.
Crucian carp was caught by Bai Dashan from the river. This fish is not for eating, but to express the beautiful meaning of "more than every year". You cannot eat fish on the night of New Year's Eve. You can eat it the next day.
have eaten.
The little boy and He Tiantian held the pig's trotters with their hands and gnawed them because the knives at home could not chop the pig's trotters. The pig's trotters were stewed whole in the pot. They were stewed very soft and could easily be separated from the bones.
.
In He Tiantian's last life in the 21st century, she had naturally eaten all kinds of good things, but her body had never eaten such good things after all, so she was very greedy. Although the little boy was not greedy, he felt that Li Chengcheng did
The food that came out tasted better, so I couldn’t help but eat more.
Li Chengcheng's appetite was not very good. He felt that meat dishes were too greasy and he couldn't eat them, so he ate some radishes and yellow cabbage.
"Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you? You have a bad appetite?" Bai Dashan asked worriedly.
"Maybe I've eaten too much good food recently, so now I like to eat light food." Li Chengcheng smiled, because she didn't feel any discomfort, so she didn't think much about it.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Li Chengcheng sealed a red envelope for each of the two children. She was rich, so naturally she was not stingy, so she directly wrapped a big red envelope worth five yuan each. You must know that the red envelope for rural children in this era is only one cent and ten cents.
Only the boys who are particularly favored in the family will probably have one!
"You guys take it to your room and put it away! If you lose it, I won't be responsible!" Li Chengcheng warned.
If the red envelope is lost, it may not be possible to get it back. After all, in this era of poverty and hardship, if someone picks up such a big red envelope and has no way to confirm the owner, it is very likely that he will keep it to subsidize his family.
