Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

After saying that, he ordered a piece of braised pork first. After eating it, Ding's mother waited for Ding's father to say something, but Ding's father ordered another piece of braised pork, and then the third piece.

Mother Ding was unhappy when she saw it and said, "That's enough, can you say something?"

Ding Youtian sighed and said, "Fengqin is right! Eating this dish and drinking wine together is really a waste of this dish!"

"This is the best braised pork I have ever eaten, no doubt about it, fragrant but not greasy, tender and juicy, melts in your mouth, delicious, absolutely delicious!"

"Wife, you eat too. You guys eat too. Pick up your chopsticks."

I ate a lot of food, but only had one glass of wine.

After cleaning up after dinner, Li Feng and Ding's father drank tea.

Ding Youtian said: "Please sit down. I have something to tell you."

"Master, please tell me what you have to say. I am all ears."

"Fengqin is pregnant!"

Li Feng…….

He felt a buzzing sensation in his head. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and look at Ding Fengqin.

Ding Fengqin didn't look at him and turned her head away.

He sighed and said, "If Fengqin is willing to remarry, I won't say anything."

After waiting for a while and seeing that Ding Fengqin didn't say anything, he knew her choice.

Li Feng sighed again and said, "If Fengqin doesn't want to give birth, I have no complaints. If she is willing to give birth, I would like to let the child have the surname Ding."

Ding Youtian stood up immediately, startled Li Feng and said, "Master, if you don't want to, it's okay. I can take the child back."

Seeing that Li Feng was frightened, Ding Youtian asked, "Do you really want your child to have the last name Ding?"

"Of course I am willing. Why wouldn't I want to? Not only can the child have the surname Ding, but I will also take care of you and your wife in your old age."

Ding Youtian's hands were shaking with excitement, tears streaming down his face as he said, "Okay, okay! Don't call me Master anymore."

"Ah? How did I displease you again?"

Ding Youtian shook his head and said, "From now on, call me dad, not son-in-law. Then you will be my son, and all my property will be left to you."

"Ah? No need. I am willing to support you, not for these reasons."

Ding Youtian nodded and said, "I know, I know everything. You are a good child, and my judgment is correct."

Mother Ding was also wiping her tears. Ding Fengqin felt mixed emotions and her tears were streaming down her face.

At the Yan's courtyard, Yu Li was feeling a little depressed. She didn't know where Li Feng had gone since early in the morning. She couldn't find him even when she wanted to ask for favors. She became even angrier when she saw Yan Jiecheng.

The whole family was looking at the table, so no one noticed her expression.

Yan Bugui was adjusting the volume of the radio, explaining, "Loud volume consumes electricity."

Yan Jiecheng said, "Dad, please stop playing with the radio. Everyone is waiting."

The third aunt also said: "Hurry up and let the child eat!"

Yan Bugui sat up and said, "The meal is ready, let's eat."

Yan Jiefang saw the staple food and said, "Dad, today is already 30 years old. Even if we don't want to eat white flour steamed buns, we can have some with two grams of flour! Why is this still steamed corn bread?"

"Humph, it's good to have something to eat. There's nothing to do after dinner, so why eat so well?"

"Have you forgotten the saying, if you can eat well and wear well, you will be poor, but if you can't plan well, you will be poor."

Yan Jiekuang said helplessly: "This year's food is not as good as last year! Last year at least we had stewed cabbage with oil residue!"

The third aunt sighed and said, "Do you think your father doesn't want to eat delicious food? He just likes to eat steamed bread? Isn't it because of the reduction in rations?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui said quickly, "Don't spread this out or something bad will happen!"

Yu Li felt fed up with this family. The meals for her, a pregnant woman, were the same as those for everyone else!

Yan Bugui looked at Yan Jiedi and asked, "Girl, don't you want to say something?"

"Me? I won't say it. Even if I say it, it won't come true."

In the middle courtyard of the Jia family, Jia Zhang looked at the dishes on the table with a gloomy face and said, "Qin Huairu, you're giving us this on New Year's Day?"

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Jia Zhang and said, "Having this to eat is already good enough. Now it's not a question of what to eat, but we're about to run out of food. Let's think about what we can do?"

After that, he started eating without caring about the number of people. Jia Dongxu was also very worried and said, "It seems that I have to go to the black market tonight! I don't know if there will be food for sale on New Year's Eve!"

Jia Zhang said with a gloomy face: "If you can't do it, then go to Yi Zhonghai to borrow it. We can't just call him master for nothing. He must take care of us."

Jia Dongxu sighed and said, "He's not having a good time right now. I guess the food he eats today is not as good as ours. How can you ask me to borrow money from him?"

"Hmph, useless thing, and you're only an eighth-level fitter, so useless. Aren't you on good terms with Sha Zhu? Go borrow some from him. He's in the cafeteria, so he's not short of food. The food here smells the best."

"Him, humph! Forget about it. His family of four now all depends on his salary. It's enough for him to bear."

"What's wrong with four people? Although none of them have formal jobs except Shazhu, his wife, what's her name? She can make a lot of money sewing and mending clothes every month."

"And that big fool Li Gousheng, the new sewing machine should be given to her."

"Qin Huairu, you are also useless. It's not like we don't have a sewing machine at home. Others can make money, so why can't you?"

Qin Huairu knew that Jia Zhang was just talking nonsense, so he ignored her.

It’s not like she hadn’t done this before, but not only did she not get a penny for the work, but Jia Zhang also kept stealing other people’s fabrics. After knowing that, who would be willing to come here?

Jia Zhang sighed and continued, "The most important thing about his family is that all four of them are registered as city residents. Although the food ration is the lowest, it's still better than ours! Except for you, everyone else is registered as a rural resident!"

"Oh! If I had known that I could change my household registration before, I would have changed it to a city household registration! Now look what has happened!"

The silly guy next door was holding a dish and said, "Here it comes, the last dish!"

Tang Xin wiped the sweat off his face, then took off his apron and sleeves and said, "Zhu Zi, have dinner."

He Yushui went to get a few bottles of drinks, opened them, and gave one to Tang Xin and Tang Xiaomei. Tang Xiaomei was not idle either, and poured a glass of wine for Sha Zhu. "

Sha Zhu smiled and said, "Okay, okay, everyone sit down, there are no rules in our house, eat and eat."

"Try how the fish is cooked today. This fish was sold to me by the third uncle! This guy is really stingy! He was reluctant to give the fish to the children during the New Year! What's more, there is a pregnant woman in his family!"

Tang Xin remembered something and asked, "Why did the uncle look for you just now?"

"Don't mention them during the New Year, it'll spoil the fun!"
