Then, the two discussed for another half an hour, and they only came to an end when it was time to get off work.

……

6Chapter 17 Li Fangmei's Pregnancy, Yan Jiecheng's Persistence

Outside the courtyard.

The jeep stopped slowly, and a group of children swarmed over, jumping for joy.

Jiang Pingan got off the car and saw his two little ones there, stepped forward to hug Jiang Yuanni, and said happily:

"Yuan Ni'er, you're covered in ashes again, here's a scent, I'll go back and intercede with your mother."

"Boom!" Jiang Yuanni smiled and kissed Jiang Ping'an, acting like a baby in his arms.

Jiang Pingan laughed loudly, turned around and said to the driver:

"At eight o'clock in the morning on the first day of the new year, you go to the factory and drive the bus here to pick up people."

"Good factory manager, I will definitely come here on time." The driver said respectfully.

After the matter was settled, Jiang Pingan hugged Jiang Yuanni and dragged Jiang Yuanxin to the courtyard.

When she got home, Qin Jingru saw Jiang Yuanni was covered in ashes, lying in Jiang Ping'an's arms, and quickly took the child over.

"I just changed my clothes in the morning, now I'm an oiler again." Qin Jingru scolded.

"You don't feel sorry for your Aunt Li, isn't she tired of washing clothes every day?"

Jiang Yuanni was a little aggrieved, and wanted to go back to Jiang Ping'an's arms, but Qin Jingru grabbed her and spanked her butt a few times.

Then Jiang Yuanni pursed her mouth and wanted to cry, and looked at Jiang Ping'an with tears in her eyes for help.

Jiang Pingan laughed and said, "The child is lively and normal, it will be fine when he is older."

He quickly pulled Jiang Yuanni over, and after a long coaxing, she didn't cry.

Li Fangmei next to her said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm idle even if I'm idle, and I'm not tired at all from washing clothes."

Not to mention, after being nourished by Jiang Ping'an several times, her mental state is getting better and better.

Compared with usual, it's like a different person.

"Just pamper your children! Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother, I'll cook now." Qin Jingru said with a smile.

He Yushui came over with a loose padded jacket for Jiang Pingan to change into, and poured hot water for him to wash his face and hands.

"I told my brother that I will go to the countryside with you during the Chinese New Year." He Yushui pursed his lips and smiled.

Jiang Pingan nodded, washed his face, and asked, "Did he say anything?"

"What can he say? Now that I'm working, he can't control me." He Yushui said with a smile.

After a pause, she continued: "He discussed with me, saying that his income is low now, can he not pay the rent?"

"But I didn't agree. Money is a trivial matter. The key is to promise him not to collect rent this time, and he will take back the house in the future."

Jiang Pingan shook his head and smiled, "Lend him some guts! But you are right, don't give him a chance."

He Yuzhu not only gave his own money every month, but also gave it to the deaf old lady.

"After I refused, my brother went to discuss with Uncle Yi in the past few days." He Yushui said.

"It was said that the house was gone because of Uncle Yi's affairs, and I wanted Uncle Yi to pay the rent."

Jiang Ping'an asked curiously, "What did Uncle Yi say?"

"I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either, saying that I would consider it." He Yushui replied.

Li Fangmei answered, "Your brother is right, right?"

"Since Uncle Yi didn't own the house, he should pay the rent!"

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "Although that's the case, Mr. Yi should have other thoughts."

"Isn't it just that I want my brother to take care of him? Who in the yard doesn't know?" He Yushui sneered.

After saying a few words about family complaints, He Yushui poured out the washing water and went to the kitchen to help Qin Jingru cook.

Li Fangmei also wanted to leave, Jiang Pingan took her hand and whispered:

"Don't be in a hurry to go back today, stay here and eat something good to replenish your body."

Li Fangmei wanted to have a baby, but with her current physical fitness, it would definitely be too much for her to bear a baby.

Jiang Ping'an deliberately asked her to take care of her body slowly so that the children born in the future will be healthy.

"Okay, but I still have to go back and say something, and I'll be here soon." Li Fangmei felt sweet in her heart.

Jiang Pingan came up to her and gave her a sip, and said with a smile: "Go, just come back before dinner."

Li Fangmei winked like silk, and left happily.

……

"Dining at Director Jiang's house tonight? It's a good thing!" Yan Bugui smiled openly.

Yan Jiecheng next to him was also envious. Who wouldn't miss the food at Jiang Ping'an's family?

"After dinner, I will stay and help take care of the children for a while, I am afraid I will come back later." Li Fangmei said.

Yan Jiecheng smiled and said, "This is what it should be."

"After all, you stayed there for dinner. It would be shameful to leave after eating."

Yan Bugui also answered, "Yes, yes, yes, Fangmei, don't worry too much, and have a good relationship with Director Jiang's family."

"If you want me to say that Fangmei's hard work was not in vain." Yan Jiecheng said happily.

"Fangmei stayed at Jiang's house for dinner, which shows that she is paying more and more attention to her. This is a good thing!"

Li Fang said beautifully: "Can you not take it seriously? Your daughter-in-law is already sleeping with someone, shouldn't it be right to have a meal?"

After turning the words around in her heart, she glanced at a plate of pickled shredded radishes on the table, and sighed in her heart.

The Yan family is good at everything, but this standard of living remains the same for thousands of years.

In the past, Yan Pugui was the only one earning money, but now Yan Jiecheng is also working, and she also has an income.

Even so, life at home remained unchanged.

"Xie Cheng, if I am pregnant, will I often eat stick noodles and shredded pickles?" Li Fangmei asked with a frown.

Yan Jiecheng was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui pondered: "If Fangmei is really pregnant, add an egg every day!"

"Dad, how can one egg be enough?" Yan Jiecheng said dissatisfied.

"It's okay for adults, but children are not nourished and don't know what they will look like."

Yan Bugui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then tell me, what should you eat?"

"I heard from Sister Juanmei that she was pregnant with a child, and she paid for the supplies from Factory Manager Jiang."

Li Fangmei answered: "20 yuan per month, chicken, duck, fish, eggs, meat and white noodles..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "We can't compare with the Xu family, Xu Ning'an and his wife have pension funds."

"But don't our family also have savings? Can we take it out for emergency?" Yan Jiecheng frowned.

He doesn't have to argue with Yan Bugui about other things.

But when it comes to children, he doesn't want to just fool around like this.

Regardless of Yan Bugui's low income, he still earns a lot of money every year by picking up garbage and selling waste products.

His second-hand bicycle was bought with the money he earned from selling scraps.

According to Yan Jiecheng's knowledge, Yan Bugui has saved at least 600 yuan, or even more, over the years.

"Oh, it's hard for me to save some money, and I'll leave it all to you guys. How about drinking the northwest wind?" Yan Bugui said angrily.

Yan Jiecheng was mad, and said anxiously: "I'll borrow it, will I return it to you slowly after I borrow it?"

"That's fine, but borrow two and pay three, you can borrow if you want, and forget it if you don't." Yan Bugui said.

"Besides, isn't it too early to talk about this now? It won't be too late to talk about it when Fangmei is really pregnant."

Yan Jiecheng was speechless, nodded and said, "All right, but let's talk about it first."

"As long as Fangmei is pregnant, even if I try my best to eat less, I can't lack her nutrition."

Yan Bugui: "..."

Li Fangmei: "..."

Chapter 648 Sticky Suggestion, He Yuzhu's Careful Thoughts

Jia family.

At the dinner table, Qin Huairu said: "It's the first time I'm back in the countryside."

"You're all gone, I'm alone." Jia Zhang said with a frown.

"And can you take less stick noodles? It's time for the children to eat long meals..."

Before finishing speaking, Qin Huairu interrupted: "Eighty catties of stick noodles is really not much!"

"I only go back once a year. Is there something missing?"

"Besides, my parents won't let me come back empty-handed, maybe they will give me some laying hens again."

Jia Zhang raised his eyebrows and said, "Your parents are just lazy, and they don't raise more chickens when they stay in the country."

"Look at the two sisters, Qin Jingmeng and Qin Jingru, who come back from the countryside every year, not only have eggs, but also chickens."

"If you can bring back two hens, I will definitely raise them well, and I will often have eggs to eat from now on."

Qin Huairu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, saying that people are lazy, who else is lazy than Jia Zhang?

In the past, she could still make a few pairs of shoes every year, and used the money to subsidize her family.

But since Jiang Ping'an helped his family get supplies, there was no shortage of food, so Jia Zhang didn't feel any sense of urgency.

Holding a pair of shoe soles on the kang all day long, I can't make a few pairs of shoes all year round, but instead make my body look rich.

"It's New Year's Eve, don't have such a beautiful dream." Qin Huairu said unhappily.

"It's not easy for my parents to raise some chickens and ducks. It would be great if they could send us some eggs."

"It's said that our family's life is prosperous enough now, and we can't be too greedy."

Stick stick suddenly interjected: "Mom, can I buy some candies for the Chinese New Year? Brown candy is best."

"Hehe, you have a big heart, and you want brown sugar. Didn't your Uncle Jiang give you candy?" Qin Huairu rolled his eyes and said.

Sticking his lips, he hesitated and said:

"I want to send some brown candies to Yuan Xin and Yuan Ni. Don't you always say that you want me to have a good relationship with them?"

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang looked at each other, Jia Zhang said with a smile:

"No wonder Jiang Ping'an often said that stick stems are smart when they are young, and they know how to make connections with people at such a young age, which is really good!"

Then she said to Qin Huairu: "Bang Jian has such a thought, so you just go to the trouble and get some brown sugar for him to give as a gift!"

"This... Brown candy is not cheap, and the Ping'an family also has it." Qin Huairu hesitated.

Stick pursed his mouth and said: "Mom, you don't understand this, right? Uncle Jiang's house belongs to his family, and it's different from what I gave."

"Hehe, look, how smart the stick is!" Jia Zhang happily said.

Her grandson is promising, but she is not reluctant to give up money.

Qin Huairu patted the stick lightly, and said with a smile: "Who did you learn this from?"

"Hmph, I didn't learn from others. I was smart since I was a child, as Uncle Jiang said." Geng Geng said triumphantly.

……

After dinner, stick stem came out from home.

Today the whole family praised him, which made him very happy.
