At the dinner table, Li Chunhua and her three children seemed much more reserved, while Wei Mo warmly welcomed the children.

He kept adding food to the dishes for Tian Boguang and his two siblings, while saying to them:

"Eat up, everyone! Try Aunt Manman's cooking, it's delicious! Come on, there's so much food!"

The three siblings, Tian Boguang and his sister, were exceptionally sensible, sitting there properly and behaving very well.

They looked at Li Chunhua, and only after she nodded did the three children begin to eat happily.

With more children, mealtimes become more lively, and more food is consumed. When the six children are together, eating is like a competition, and even Wei Mo ate an extra bowl.

When Li Taiping returned home in the afternoon, he found the house empty. He was stunned and then rushed to Wei Mo's house to inquire.

But when he arrived at Wei Mo's house, he saw Tian Yue and Tian Xue playing with Wei Xiaomin and Wei Xiaohui in the yard.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his two daughters, and then quickly ran to them.

He held the two sisters, Tian Yue and Tian Xue, in his arms and asked them:

"Xiaoxue, Xiaoyue, where's your mom? Why did you move out?"

The two sisters looked especially happy when they saw that it was Li Taiping.

After seeing Li Taiping, Tian Yue and Tian Xue said to him with a wronged expression:

"Dad, Mom is inside. We've been kicked out."

Li Taiping was visibly taken aback by Tian Xue's words, then seemed to realize something, nodded to the two sisters, and quickly walked into the house.

Li Chunhua, who was chatting with Grandma Yu, saw Li Taiping had found her. She gave Grandma Yu an awkward smile and then pulled Li Taiping to a corner of the yard.

Li Taiping looked very nervous. He held Li Chunhua's hand, his eyes filled with worry.

Li Chunhua had no choice but to tell Li Taiping the truth, since she had already been kicked out and there was nothing left to hide:

“I… my children and I were kicked out by Tian Zhigang. He told me I had to move out by tonight, because the house belonged to him.”

“I have nowhere to go, so I can only stay here for two days. Once our new house is finished, I will move in.”

“Taiping, take Boguang to the educated youth settlement for a couple of days tonight. After all, if our whole family goes, people will gossip.”

Upon hearing Li Chunhua's words, Li Taiping became extremely angry, still cursing Tian Zhigang:

“That Tian Zhigang is a real scoundrel. He doesn’t deserve to be called a human being. He even wants to kick his own child out. No! From now on, the child won’t be his child anymore; it will be our child.”

"Don't worry, Chunhua. Once our house is finished, we can move there immediately. You can stay here and live comfortably for now."

"I'll take Boguang back to the educated youth settlement in a bit. I'll get our house sorted out as soon as possible in the next few days."

Li Chunhua nodded to the side, and then he called Tian Boguang over. After all, Wang Zhenhua's family had more girls than boys, so it was not appropriate for Tian Boguang to live there.

Li Chunhua gave Tian Boguang a few instructions, telling him that he must obey Li Taiping's orders when he's with Li Taiping.

Afterwards, Li Taiping played with his two daughters for a while before taking Tian Boguang back to the male educated youth settlement.

When it's time to rest at night, Wei Mo can only go to the old man's place to rest and sleep.

Li Xiuxiu also moved into the east room, and the two of them vacated Wei Mo's room for Li Chunhua and her two daughters to live in.

Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye. Li Taiping's house is finally ready to move into. Li Chunhua is busy packing her things, as they will be moving soon.

Meanwhile, the two sisters, Tian Yue and Tian Xue, are playing with Wei Mo's two older sisters, and the two sisters have been especially happy these past two days.

Not only do they have delicious food every day, but they also have two more young ladies to keep them company.

As the two girls played, watching their mother tidy up, Tian Yue and Tian Xue realized that their new home was already built.

They were filled with reluctance and didn't want to leave Wei Mo's house. Wei Xiaomin held her two younger sisters' hands, and the two of them were particularly obedient.

Whatever Wei Xiaomin wanted to play, the two little girls would nod in agreement. Wei Xiaomin ran to Li Chunhua's side and said to her:

"Aunt Chunhua, can Tianyue and Tianxue continue to stay at my house? I can't bear to part with them."

As Wei Xiaomin spoke, she took Li Chunhua's hand and shook it.

Seeing his daughter like this, Wang Zhenhua went over and patted Wei Xiaomin's head. Li Chunhua didn't know how to react for a moment.

Wang Zhenhua spoke to Wei Xiaomin from the side:

"Xiaomin, Tianyue and Tianxue's new homes are right next to ours, what are you afraid of? When you miss them, just go and play with them."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaomin's eyes lit up, as if she were pondering something. Then she asked Wang Zhenhua:

"Mom, is that the newly built house next door? Is that Tian Yue and Tian Xue's new home?"

Wang Zhenhua nodded in agreement, and Wei Xiaomin immediately smiled broadly and stopped asking questions.

She let go of Li Chunhua's hand and ran towards Tian Yue and Tian Xue, the two sisters.

Wei Xiaohui, Tian Yue, and Tian Xue, three girls, were playing cat's cradle when Wei Xiaomin ran over and quickly joined them.

Laughter filled Wei Mo's house; it could be heard even by those passing by in the yard.

Li Taiping didn't go to the black market today either. He borrowed an oxcart to move things for his wife, Li Chunhua.

Li Taiping was extremely excited, and everyone at Wei Mo's house helped with the moving.

Before noon, Li Chunhua and Li Taiping moved into their new home.

Then Li Chunhua warmly addressed Wang Zhenhua and the others, saying:

"Sister Wang, come over for a meal tonight. My family is making hot pot today as a way of thanking you for taking us in."

In rural areas, there is a custom of burning the bottom of the pot when moving into a new house, which symbolizes a prosperous and lively family. Wang Zhenhua naturally did not refuse and nodded.

Li Chunhua knew that Sister Wang's family had a lot of people, and she was very happy to see that Wang Zhenhua was willing to come, since she and her child had been eating very well at Sister Wang's house these past few days.

Wei Mo's family all came to Li Taiping's house as guests for dinner.

Because there will be a lot of people making the hot pot today, Li Taiping asked the two sisters, Tian Yue and Tian Xue, to go to Wei Mo's house to invite Qian Manman to come and help out.

After all, Qian Manman's cooking skills were truly exceptional, so Li Taiping invited everyone from Wei Mo's family to his home.

It's not really an invitation to be a guest anymore, it's more like a kidnapping, but everyone is happy to be there, which shows Li Taiping's true feelings.

Because of his connections with the black market, Li Taiping had acquired a lot of meat and some wild game, which he had deliberately prepared for today.

With Qian Manman's skillful cooking, the aroma soon filled the room, making several children swallow their saliva as they watched.
