The old man came forward to make arrangements, and the staff of the Telecommunications Bureau came over the next morning. Ji Luo had held telephone lines in Shacheng before, and was very familiar with this set of procedures. He negotiated with the other party in about ten minutes, and took the He gave cash to Ren Rongyan and asked him to follow him to complete the procedures.

In two days, the landline was installed at home. Ji Luo immediately called the Shacheng store and asked them to call her if anything happened in the future.

The winter in the north is much colder than in the south. The temperature is more than ten degrees below zero every day. Ji Luo dare not go out. She bundles up tightly at home and knits sweaters by the fire every day. Other trivial housework at home is done by her mother-in-law and men.

It was almost time to give birth, and the busiest person was Ruan Danqiong. She took out the washed and dried baby clothes and diapers in advance, washed them again, and took them all to the fire to dry.

Ren Rongyan was solely responsible for the purchasing task. He went out every day to buy all kinds of fresh things for her to eat. He stocked up chickens, ducks, pork, pork belly, eggs, vegetables, etc. in advance to prepare for the New Year and confinement period.

"Luoluo, look what I brought back?"

Ren Rongyan went to the compound today, and when he came back, he hugged a black puppy and wrapped it in a piece of shabby cotton cloth.

Ji Luo was leaning on the recliner to knit a sweater. When he saw the puppy in his hand, he immediately threw away the knitting yarn on hand, "Brother Yan, where did you get the puppy? Did you buy it?"

"My uncle brought a little wolfdog back from the military area. It was more than two months old. He asked me to bring it back to keep him in the home and care for the home."

Ren Rongyan originally wanted to raise a dog to guard the house, and also wanted Xu Guanglei to help find a retired military dog. This time his uncle gave him a little wolfdog. He thought Ji Luo would like it, so he brought it back.

"so cute."

Ji Luoting likes raising cats and dogs, especially this kind of little puppy. She likes it very much. She reached out and hugged the chubby puppy.

"Woof woof woof..."

The puppy smelled a strange smell and kept barking at her.

Ji Luo gently touched its head and asked Ren Rongyan with a smile: "Brother Yan, does it have a name?"

"No, you can take it."

"Call Black Panther."

Ji Luo has a new toy, and he can't bear to let go of it.

Seeing that she liked teasing the puppy very much, Ren Rongyan smiled helplessly: "How about catching one or two more?"

"No, one is enough. Any more will be difficult to raise."

I will have a baby soon, and I will have to devote a lot of energy to taking care of the baby. I won’t have so much time to raise a dog. If I am looking after the home and nursing home, one is enough.

The little black panther was not familiar with this place at first, so he barked when he saw people. He got used to it after two days of barking, and he stayed by Ji Luo's feet to warm himself by the fire every day.

After the New Year, the store in the provincial capital was closed for the annual holiday. Chen Zhifeng paid his wages early as promised early in the season. All employees in the store and warehouse received a year-end bonus of 20 yuan. The annual gifts of state-owned units were also complete.

The store was immediately closed, and everyone went home to celebrate the New Year. People were arranged to be on duty at the warehouse, and those on duty during the New Year were paid double wages.

Chen Zhifeng also prepared Chinese New Year supplies for those on duty, including chicken, duck, fish, meat, grains and vegetables. The portions were very generous and more abundant than when they celebrated the Chinese New Year in their hometown.

Chen Zhifeng and his wife arrived home on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. They spent the New Year at their new home in the county. After a good rest, they went back to the countryside to visit their uncle, his wife and his parents-in-law.

When her daughter and son-in-law came back, Li Shufen stewed the ribs early and cleared all the snow in front of her house.

"Dad, Mom, we are back."

There was a shout from outside the house, and Ji Erlin and his wife immediately opened the door, followed closely by sisters Ji Yujie, both of whom were very excited and happy: "Sister, brother-in-law."

"Dad, Mom, Yujie, Panpan."

Chen Zhifeng came over on a bicycle. After Ji Bingqing stood firm, he handed them the large and small bags hanging on the bicycle: "Yujie, Panpan, take it in."

"Zhifeng, why did you buy so many things again? It's not easy for you to make money. Now you have to raise children. Buy less things. It's enough for you to have this intention." Ji Erlin said.

"Dad, I didn't buy much. Most of them were New Year's gifts from the store."

Chen Zhifeng and his wife had a lot of annual gifts, including two portions of tobacco, wine, and pork. They gave one portion to their uncle's family and the other to their mother-in-law's family. They also bought some for their elders and two sisters-in-law in the provincial capital. A cotton-padded coat, this is seven or eight bags in large and small bags.

"Bingqing, walk slowly. The ground is slippery and be careful."

Li Shufen saw that after her daughter went to the provincial capital, her skin had become much whiter, her face had grown fat, and she was in good spirits. She was wearing a beautiful blue cotton-padded jacket, and she looked like a lesbian in the city. She could tell at this glance that she was a lesbian. The family has a happy marriage and her son-in-law treats her well.

Ji Bingqing went to live in the provincial capital for three or four months. She became much more generous. She smiled and held her mother's arm, "Mom, I'm fine."

"It's not stable when you're just pregnant, so you need to be more careful."

With eyes full of smiles, Li Shufen asked them with a smile: "Zhifeng, have you ever returned to Xihegou to visit your uncle and aunt?"

"Mom, we went back to Xihegou yesterday afternoon and had dinner with uncle and the others last night."

"Your uncle and aunt are thinking about you very much. It's time to go and walk around first when you come back." Ji Erlin helped carry some things and called them into the house, "It's cold outside, come inside and sit down."

When Ji Bingqing returned home, she looked around and saw that her parents and two younger sisters were all wearing old cotton-padded jackets, so she immediately took out the new clothes she bought for them.

"Dad, Mom, Yujie, Panpan, I bought you new cotton-padded jackets. Sister Luo accompanied me to choose them. Please try them out quickly."

"Oh, you kid, why are you buying so many new clothes? We have clothes to wear, so don't waste this money." Li Shufen hurriedly refused.

"Mom, you have to spend the money you earn. It's the Chinese New Year and it's time to wear new clothes."

Chen Zhifeng stuffed two pieces of clothes belonging to his elders to his parents-in-law and said, "Mom, Dad, try it on. If the size doesn't fit, let Bingqing change it for you."

"No need to change, no need to change, it looks good." Ji Erlin's eyes were filled with joy.

The two cotton-padded jackets worn by Ji Yujie and Ji Panpan are the same style as those worn by Ji Bingqing. The three sisters are about the same height and shape, and their clothes are similar in size, but they are in different colors, one is ginger and the other is maroon.

The two sisters liked the new clothes very much, and they fit well on them. Li Shufen helped them adjust them, with a smile on her face: "Zhifeng, I spent a lot of money on you."

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

Sister Ji Yujie both smiled sweetly. The new clothes they had worn in the past two years were all bought by her brother-in-law, and they all remembered them.

"As long as you like it."

Chen Zhifeng is very generous to his family. He not only bought clothes here, but also for his uncle and his wife, as well as for his grandparents and uncles. This time he came back and picked out two big bags of new year's goods.

The clothes of Ji Erlin and his wife also fit well, and there was no need to change them. They tried them all on and put them away in the closet, continuing to wear the shabby cotton jackets they usually wear.
