"

Her face slightly blushed at Chen Mu's words, and she gently squeezed Chen Mu's hand, "You are good at talking nonsense, let's see if you can tease me like this.

"

His hug became more intimate as he laughed.

"Is Xiaomu back?" The elder's voice came from the door, and Chen Mu immediately went to answer the door: "Dad, are you looking for me?"

"Muzi, I have already discussed Xiaohua's situation with our principal.

Judging from the grades alone, there is no big problem. The key is to make Xiaohua perform well in the school tests.

The elder went on to explain,

"Thank you for your help, then.

"Chen Mu expressed his gratitude," It's just a piece of cake for me. I will take Xiaohua to school tomorrow to deal with this matter.

The elder smiled.

"That's right, Third Uncle, there's one more person at our table, Xiaohua. We have to add more ingredients to the dishes for tomorrow's dinner to prepare for the guests.

"

To this the elder replied with a smile: “Just prepare a few dishes, no need to be so polite.

"

Then he waved goodbye and started on his way home.

After noon the next day,

Chen Mu has purchased a lot of fresh ingredients from the market and extracted several kilograms of duck legs,

Lean meat and a few slices of chicken.

Including the food for several children, this table really needs to be rich.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Chen Mu found the old man waiting at the gate.

"There must be some result regarding Xiaobai," he guessed silently in his heart.

"Uncle, you're back? So early!" He greeted the old man, trying to break the silence with a relaxed attitude.

The old man smiled with satisfaction: "Xiao Mu, Xiao Bai's matter is finally over, and he can go to the fourth grade school.

"

This news made Chen Mu feel relieved: "You are really good at handling things quickly! I will start making dinner right away.

"

The old man looked at the large bag of food in Xiaomu's hand and said, "This is a very full meal.

"

The sun slowly disappeared behind the clouds, the sky became darker, and the dining table in the small courtyard was already filled with sumptuous dishes.

From stir-fried cabbage and tofu to braised crucian carp, boiled pork slices, fish-flavored meat pie...all kinds of delicacies were placed on the table, and the tempting aroma filled the entire room.

"Xiao Mu, this dinner is really rich.

"The old uncle praised, but there was unspeakable emotion in his eyes.

Chen Mu sensed the meaning and said, "Since you and the old lady are here to teach me how to cook, I have prepared it with extra care. Normally at home, I only cook ordinary vegetables and tofu.

"

The change of words made the old man even happier.

Under his leadership, the sumptuous feast that Xiaomu had prepared was completed.

The adults arrived as scheduled, and the aroma of delicious food could be smelled from far away.

The older children were already drooling, and as soon as they entered the door, they stared at the table full of delicious food.

Chen Mu quickly invited the old uncle and aunt to sit at the upper seats and also arranged good seats for the children.

The table was filled with various delicacies, each with its own unique aroma: the cabbage and tofu were refreshing, the braised crucian carp was delicious, and the whole duck with fish sauce was unforgettable...

The adults all exclaimed: "Xiao Mu's banquet is indeed luxurious.

"

"It's a rare occasion for the old man to visit us, so we did our best to prepare. On weekdays, we just serve simple clear soup noodles, after all, life is still bearable.

"Chen Mu's words made the adults smile even more deeply and more kindly.

The old uncle answered first and picked up his chopsticks, "My nephew's cooking skills are just as good as those of a chef.

"His grandson Yan explained," It tastes so delicious. I have never tasted such delicious food in my life.

"

The adults tasted Xiaohua’s friend’s food for the first time.

When they heard such praise, they couldn't wait to taste it, and thus got into a state of eating continuously without being able to extricate themselves.

The youngest child, Yan Jiedi, always liked to wander and play with Xiaohua in the back garden. Her small stature was in sharp contrast to the extremely strong Xiaohua, which made her mother feel distressed: "Explain quickly, it will be bad if the food is left over."

Yan nodded sensibly and explained: "Well, I'll eat faster."

This scene made everyone laugh.

"Don't learn from your sister. Eat slowly and be careful not to choke, kid.

"The adults kindly instructed.

After hearing the encouragement from the adults, the little guy smiled happily: "Thank you, Grandpa, we will eat slowly.

"The atmosphere in the Chen family is full of harmony and joy.

The old man raised his glass and sighed softly, "Xiao Mu, it is such an honor to have the opportunity to dine with you. You have shown extraordinary abilities since you were young. We have seen your dedication to work and your care for your family and we remember them in our hearts.

"

Chen Mu responded with a smile: "This is the result of everyone's hard work, we just try our best to do better.

"

This conversation lasted for a long time and everyone enjoyed this warm atmosphere.

“I wish my children could be half as good as Li Yun.

Until then I won't have to worry about anything.

“The words of the big three boss really expressed his expectations for a better future.

Suddenly, the old lady spoke before anyone could say anything: "My child, Li Yun, can you tell me the truth? Do you have any good news?" After asking this question, Xiao Yun was very surprised because she didn't expect that the news of her pregnancy had been discovered.

Her face flushed slightly and she nodded embarrassedly: "It's been less than two months..." she whispered.

Then the aunt from my hometown smiled and said: "Congratulations, Yulan! You will soon have a grandson to hold in your arms!"

Old Mrs. Chen was laughing so hard that she could hardly close her mouth.

Several families started a lively discussion like this, and the warmth and harmony among neighbors spread in the air along with their laughter.

"Come on, little Chen Mu, let's continue drinking!" The three uncles from the old family said this excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Chenmu also responded positively.

The night sky gradually brightened, and as the moon rose, the family ended their joyful occasion.

Xiao Chenmu predicted that by tomorrow, this secret about Xiao Yun would be spread among the neighbors.

"Xiao Mu, quickly ask your daughter to come out and meet us, and don't forget to give us some red envelopes." Sha Zhu joked to Xiao Chen Mu.

"Don't worry, I won't forget it.

"Little Chen Mu replied with a smile.

A few days later, the investigation results came out, and it was determined that Zhao Hai's accident was caused by old equipment in the forging workshop.

According to the provisions of the Labor Law, corresponding compensation should be given, and the factory paid a total of 450 yuan in compensation.

However, due to the gender wage gap, it is more difficult for women to obtain such positions in the blacksmithing department, and the canteen can only maintain its current form due to supply shortage.

Another week passed quickly, and Xiao Yun couldn't wait to use the sewing machine to make clothes for the children.

So Chen Mu took her shopping on his bike to buy fabrics for clothes.

When they arrived at the store, they selected a lot of fabrics for the whole family's clothes. On the way home, Xiao Yun couldn't wait to start making them.

According to her previous experience, there was indeed no problem, and soon, a prototype of a garment was formed.

Chen Muzhe suddenly remembered his mother's wish to learn how to ride a bike, so he took advantage of this free time to teach his mother how to ride a bike.

However, when talking about this new thing, the old man seemed a little hesitant.

The seemingly ordinary idea of ​​"learning to ride a bicycle" turned out to be a big test for Mother Chen. Only with her brother's repeated encouragement did she manage to control the bicycle steadily outside the gate of the yard.

"Mom, tell me after me how to hold the steering wheel tightly?" With the help and guidance of her brother, although the elderly mother seemed clumsy, she made progress little by little with the help of her brother, and she finally learned how to ride a bicycle.

Perhaps soon, my mother will be able to easily ride her bike to the lakeside.

A week passed quietly, and with constant practice at night, **'s driving skills improved significantly.

At the same time, Xiao Yun also prepared two sets of homemade clothes for each adult in the family. After seeing this, her husband praised her highly and complimented her for her dexterity and meticulousness.

All these beautiful things are slowly unfolding in this plain and warm story...

As time slowly entered autumn, Xu Damao began to go home more often from some unintentional moment.

During the days of divorce, he felt more powerless about life than ever before.

The images of a person washing clothes and cooking kept appearing in his mind, which made him reminisce about the past, when he had a partner in his life, but now he had to fend for himself.

Being a smart man, he had pondered countless times in his mind whether he should find another wife to share his life with.

Unfortunately, even the matchmaker knew about his situation and was unwilling to help.

So he was still alone, walking in the city.

The news about the accident of steel mill worker Zhao Dahai spread quickly, and everyone lamented the tragic fate of Zhao Dahai's family that had suffered such a blow.

But only Xu Damao was keenly aware of the opportunity - Li Mei, a widow with two young children, was exactly what he had been dreaming of. Li Mei had lost her husband and had two young children to raise.

He happens to be infertile, so marrying a woman like this would undoubtedly be a win-win situation for both parties.

For Li Mei, Xu Damao is also one of the suitable candidates.

Although Xu Damao's monthly salary is only more than 30 yuan, he can have his own residence in the courtyard.

Such conditions were enough to convince Li Mei to get in touch with him.

In order to facilitate this relationship, Xu Damao asked someone he knew to introduce Li Mei to him, and also began to carefully plan this marriage.

Li Mei was no fool, and she arranged a watch during the first scheduled meeting, exposing Xu Damao's plot on the spot.

If this matter were to spread, his reputation would surely be severely damaged.

In order to avoid the stigma, Xu Damao had to formally marry Li Mei and accept her two innocent and lively children.

Surprisingly, the outcome of this marriage seemed to have exceeded Xu Damao's expectations.

His two future grandsons not only solved the problem of supporting themselves, but also brought some new breath and vitality to Xu Damao's life, making him full of hope for the future.

When people in the courtyard learned about Xu Damao's situation, they talked about it. Some thought he had found the direction of happiness, while others secretly gossiped about him behind his back.

They laughed at Sha Zhu: "Sha Zhu, look, now I, Xu Damao, have a new wife and a pair of sons! From now on, you can only stand aside and sigh with envy.

"

Therefore, this message was first sent to his old rival Sha Zhu.

After hearing this, Sha Zhu was somewhat unwilling and wanted to refute, but he fell silent after being stopped by Lou Xiao'e.

There were cheers and laughter coming from outside the door.

The two young and ignorant children were full of curiosity about the new title and cooperated obediently with Xu Damao's requests, which made Xu Damao feel a sense of accomplishment.

When Xu Damao kept looking for opportunities to ridicule and provoke Sha Zhu, the latter finally couldn't stand it anymore and proposed to have another pair of biological children to set an example for Xu Damao.

This instantly caused laughter in the neighborhood.

Despite this, Xu Damao still seemed calm and responded with a sarcastic remark.

This response angered Shazhu, who immediately prepared to open the door and continue to judge and argue.

Seeing this scene, Xu Damao knew that if he didn't leave quickly, he might get into a deeper dispute.

So, after satisfying his momentary oral desire, he left quickly to avoid a more serious challenge.

So, he held one in each hand and pulled the pair of little ones back into the house.

Sha Zhu stayed at the door with regret, glaring at Xu Damao's disappearing figure.

Chen Mu obviously heard the noise in the backyard. He shook his head helplessly and thought to himself, "Why is the plot so different from the one on TV? Maybe it's because my time travel changed the original development line.

"

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. Chen Mu finally shook his head to express his powerlessness and stopped thinking deeply.

Xiao Yun watched the man sighing, gently put her arm around Chen Mu's waist from behind, and said softly, "Our yard is much more lively than our parents', it's never quiet.

With you by my side in the future, life will be more colorful.

"The words between the lines hint at the difference in life after following Chen Mu.

Hearing the meaning behind the words, Chen Mu turned around, hugged the person in front of him tightly, and said: "You also like to join in the fun? Then let's have some fun together from now on?" Seeing the other person's strong expression, he pretended to glare back, and the slightly raised eyelids made a strange emotion surge in his heart.

Then he got rid of Chen Mu and ran quickly to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

Half a year had passed since the hospital check-up, and the shape of Xiao Yun's belly had begun to become more obvious.

I wanted to stop her from sharing the housework, but considering that a moderate amount of physical exertion is actually beneficial, I sometimes let her do some cleaning.

Staring at the little man with something in his belly, an indescribable emotion filled Chen Mu's heart.

"Is this what it feels like to nurture a life?" It seems that she understands her responsibility and must do her best to take care of the well-being and prosperity of her family.

With the training in first aid skills he had learned from newspapers, his medical skills and experience continued to increase and reached level five.

At this moment, Chen Mu could not only observe Xiao Yun's physical condition through her facial features, but with the help of his pulse diagnosis skills, he was almost certain that there were two babies in her belly.

He was overwhelmed with joy and immediately told Xiao Yun and his mother the news.

Xiao Yun said that she didn't have many clothes and wanted to make a few more sets.

On the contrary, the mother seemed more worried.

Chen Mu understood that she was concerned about the danger to the twins.

After all, times are different, and the level of medical advancement is still some distance away from modern society.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm a doctor myself, and I will take good care of Xiao Yun during her pregnancy, so don't worry.

" Chen Mu comforted him like this.

"You're right. When the time comes, we should prepare in advance and go to the hospital to give birth, so that everyone can feel more at ease.

He nodded in agreement at what his mother said.

It's autumn now, and winter is not too far away.

Recalling the previous two years, he only realized how cold it was before the severe cold hit, so he decided to set up a small stove above his mother and sister's beds to keep them warm.

"Do we need a kang too? Why don't you and Xiao Yun build one too?" Mom suggested.

"Xiao Yun is already pregnant, so we don't have to rush into it. You and your sister can proceed first.

So as to avoid the winter being too cold and affecting their comfort.

"Chen Mu explained.

“Okay, I’ll ask the master how to build a kang tomorrow, and you can go to work as usual without any distractions.

"Mom then suggested.

The next morning, he obtained twenty chickens from the "storage cave" as he wished and successfully completed the inventory management distribution task.

The registrar was already accustomed to Chen Mu's heroic actions and regarded him as one of the authorities in the industry.

Xiao Yun's birthday is coming soon, and Chen Mu plans to prepare a watch for her as a birthday gift to express his deep affection and friendship.

However, it is not easy to buy watch tickets at present. Fortunately, watches are not something that must be obtained with watch tickets.

The latest policy has been relaxed and industrial vouchers can be redeemed through collection.

This industrial voucher can be used not only to replace electrical appliances such as clocks and radios, but even daily necessities such as bowls, plates, and pots at home.

Chen Mu said beside Li Feng, "Li Feng, go find your master's friends and see if there are any industrial vouchers.

Just say that the master exchanged it for pork.
