Siheyuan: All the incense in the family is counting on you

Walk to the door and push it gently.

Sure enough, the gate of the yard was not locked, but just ajar. Li Bowen walked in and turned around to lock the door.

Hearing the noise, Chen Xiaoyun also came out of the house: "You're back, have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet, I just wanted to come back and eat with you guys!" Li Bowen took out some candy from his pocket and squatted down: "Come here, Yueyue, look what I brought back for you!"

"Candy!" Yueyue was very excited. She turned her head to look at her mother. After getting her mother's permission, she grabbed the candy in Li Bowen's hand and shouted sweetly, "Thank you, godfather!"

"Well, you're so good. Go play!" Li Bowen stood up and handed the small basket of eggs to Chen Xiaoyun. "These are the eggs I bought from the village. They're enough for our family to eat for a few days. Why did you think of asking Yueyue to call me godfather?"

"After thinking about it, I think it's more appropriate to call him godfather! It will be convenient for you to communicate with him if he becomes your relative!" Chen Xiaoyun replied.

Li Bowen nodded: "That's fine, I like Yueyue!" As the saying goes, there are many rumors about a widow. If there is no normal reason, it won't take long for the rumors to spread everywhere. Although recognizing a godfather is not a particularly good idea, it is the most suitable one at the moment.

If I want to get rid of these rumors in the future, I have to move away from here completely, but that’s not possible right now.

Chen Xiaoyun took the basket, opened the cloth covering it and took a look: "Isn't this purchased for your factory? Is it okay for us to eat it ourselves?"

"It's okay. I bought this with my own money. I'm not taking advantage of the government!"

"Then don't buy it in the future, it's too expensive!"

Li Bowen smiled and reached out to touch Chen Xiaoyun's cheek: "Are you still worried that you will make me poor? Don't worry, I earn a lot, it's enough to support you and your mother!"

Hearing what he said, Chen Xiaoyun said nothing more and carried the basket into the house: "Then sit down and rest for a while. I'll fry you some eggs to go with the wine!"

The three of them sat around a low table. On the table were a plate of pickled vegetables, a plate of pickled cabbage, freshly fried eggs, a few steamed breads in a small basket, and a large bowl of cornmeal porridge in front of each person. Chen Qiaoyun poured Li Bowen a glass of wine, which she had bought specially today: "I don't know what kind of wine you like, so I just bought a bottle at random."

Li Bowen picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "This is good."

Looking at Xiao Yueyue who was staring at the eggs eagerly, Li Bowen brought the bowl to Yueyue and said, "Come and eat, my daughter. Eat as much as you can. It's all yours!"

Chen Xiaoyun's eyes were a little moist. It had been a long time since she felt this way. Then she said to her daughter, "Eat."

At dinner, Li Bowen drank some wine with pickles and shredded cabbage. Looking at the little girl wolfing down the food, his eyes were full of smiles, and a desire to protect her arose in his heart. He wanted to protect the woman and child in front of him all the time.

As the night deepened, after coaxing the child to sleep, Chen Xiaoyun came to the west room, and after some fussing, she lay down next to Li Bowen, clinging to him tightly: "Thank you, Yueyue is very happy today!"

"What about you? Are you happy?"

"Yeah, I'm happy too. I feel really lucky to have met you! I really hope I can live like this forever!"

The two talked a lot that night, from Chen Xiaoyun's childhood to the present. Chen Xiaoyun's hometown is not here. Her hometown is in the Northeast. When she was very young, she followed her parents into the customs and finally settled down in Changping. Although she settled down temporarily, life was not easy. Her father lost his life in the subsequent war, leaving only an orphan and a widow to live a hard life.

After waiting for a long time for liberation, Chen Xiaoyun grew up slowly and got married through an introduction. However, her mother passed away due to illness caused by overwork. As the saying goes, a hemp rope breaks at the thinnest part and misfortune always strikes upon the unfortunate. Unexpectedly, her husband also died in an accident, leaving only her and 3-year-old Yueyue.

Li Bowen also told Chen Xiaoyun about his situation.

Listening to her experience, Li Xuewu felt deeply moved. He had never thought that her life was so hard. He could not help but hug her tightly and patted her on the back gently: "Don't worry, you have me now. I will not let you suffer anymore. Good days are still to come!"

Chen Xiaoyun leaned into Li Bowen's arms and said softly, "Well, I don't have any requirements. As long as you treat Yueyue well, I will follow you for the rest of my life and never leave you!"

After one night, the relationship between the two became much closer. In the next two days, Li Bowen still went out to the village during the day and came back at night, just like a happy family of three.

But Li Bowen had to go back eventually, after all, he had things to do at home. Saturday was almost here, and his uncle was still waiting for him at home.

Before leaving, he left Chen Xiaoyun with enough money and food coupons, and also got a lot of food. He held her hand and said, "You and Yueyue stay at home. After I go back, I will think about whether I can arrange a job for you in the city. Move to the city, and I will be back in a few days!"

"Well, then you go early and come back early, we will wait for you at home!"

In this way, Li Bowen and Fox rode their bikes and pulled the first batch of collected things back.

"Mosquito, are you really going to keep the mother and daughter together?" Fox stared at the car in front and turned back to ask. Their affair was fine for one day, but it had been going on for several days, so how could Fox not know?

"Well, just raise them. The mother and daughter are quite pitiful. Since they have followed me, I can't abandon them!" Li Bowen nodded.

"Yeah, sometimes I really envy you. Not only does your family not care about you, they also help you take care of things!"

The fox's sour words made Li Bowen laugh: "Why do you want to enjoy this kind of treatment? Are you also in love with that young widow?"

"How is that possible? She wants to live with me forever, but I don't have the extra money to support her. My family can't make ends meet. Besides, you don't know what kind of person my wife is!"

"Then you should just be honest. It's okay to have some fun occasionally, but don't make things so chaotic at home!"

"Of course, otherwise I would say I envy you!" The fox turned around and continued pedaling the tricycle hard.

Alas, having too many women is a troublesome thing, but there is no way. This is the situation at home, and I have the kind of physique that attracts people. What can I do? Since I can't resist, I just choose to accept it calmly.

After returning home, the fox unloaded everything from the tricycle and moved it into the house, then hurried home.

Li Bowen hadn't even sat down when his third uncle Li Dahe came rushing over. The first thing he said when he saw him was, "You're finally back. If you hadn't come back, I would have gone to Changling Commune to look for you!"

"Hahaha, don't worry, Uncle San, I remember the date and I won't delay it!" Looking at Uncle San's anxious look, Li Bowen laughed.

"Anyway, it's fine as long as we come back. Let's set out early tomorrow morning. I've already contacted the village chief and several production team leaders of Shenjia Village. We can have a meal together then. It should be about the same time!"
