After Li Taiping obtained the land for building a house, he hired villagers to start fires on the frozen foundation to soften the soil before digging out the foundation.
He wanted to marry Li Chunhua as soon as possible so that he could better take care of their three children. The villagers had no objections to Li Taiping's eagerness.
After all, Li Taiping would not only pay people in the brigade to help, but also provide lunch. It was the time of year when people hibernated, and there were many idle people in the village.
Li Taiping shared this plan and quickly began construction, preparing all the necessary materials.
After preparing the bricks, gravel, and roof beams, he was ready to start building the brick house once he was ready to lay the bricks.
Every day, Tian Boguang would come here to check on the changes in his new home.
Although the house hasn't been built yet, he wants to act like a man and protect the supplies in his new home, in case someone tries to steal bricks.
The village reacted differently to the news that Li Taiping and Li Chunhua were about to get married.
Most people disagreed, because Li Taiping was still a young man, and quite handsome, yet he married Li Chunhua, who had three children in tow. They felt it was unfair to Li Taiping.
Some people think the two are quite well-matched, after all, Li Chunhua is a hardworking woman who lives a fulfilling life with her three children.
Now that they have Li Taiping, their lives are sure to get better and better.
Originally, Li Taiping was worried that Tian Zhigang would cause trouble, but he overheard the rumors spread by other people in the village.
Instead of causing trouble for Li Taiping, Tian Zhigang mocked Li Taiping behind his back, saying that Li Taiping was raising his children.
Li Taiping didn't take it seriously, but when Tian Boguang heard the news, he was furious. He knelt down in front of Li Taiping and called him "Dad".
Originally, Tian Boguang was at the age of rebellion, and then his own father spoke in such an unpleasant voice.
Li Taiping had seen how well he had treated his mother and sister these past few days, and he was also exceptionally concerned about himself.
Tian Boguang had never experienced such care even from his own father. Seeing Tian Boguang kneeling on the ground, Li Taiping quickly pulled him up, then said somewhat reproachfully:
"Just call me Uncle Li. Don't worry, I'll treat you all well."
However, Tian Boguang shook his head and directly addressed Li Taiping as Father Li.
Li Taiping was indeed moved. Ever since Tian Boguang called him by name, he has paid even more attention to the mother and her three daughters.
Every day, he would go to the black market to exchange for food and supplies, which he would bring back for Li Chunhua and the children.
At first, Li Chunhua was a little worried, but Li Taiping didn't take it to heart and said to her,
"Sister Chunhua, please eat without worry. I traded for all of these things. Although there were some risks, isn't the point of living to have enough to eat?"
Seeing that Li Taiping was willing to risk going to the black market just to get some good food for his family, Li Chunhua was deeply moved.
Even Tian Xue and Tian Yue completely fell in love with Li Taiping and wanted him to be their father, because every time Li Taiping came back, he would bring the two girls some snacks and pretty toys.
Now the two of them are so spoiled by Li Taiping that they no longer call him Uncle Li, but instead call him Dad Li every day.
Wei Mo was somewhat surprised by this result, but it was also reasonable. Li Taiping was a good person, so it was natural that he would treat Li Chunhua's family well.
More than half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and then some good news reached the old man.
The visitor was the town party secretary, who arrived at Wei Mo's house on a bicycle.
Wei Mo recognized the man before; he had even delivered gifts to the old man during the New Year. Wei Mo quickly called out into the house.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, the uncles from the county are here."
Upon hearing this, Old Master Yu, who was inside the house, quickly came out of the room and saw the county party secretary pushing a bicycle.
After parking his bicycle, he walked towards the door. Old Master Yu quickly went to greet him and said to the Party Secretary,
"Secretary, what brings you here? Just let me know if there's anything you need, and I'll be right there."
Upon hearing Old Master Yu's words, the Party Secretary quickly waved his hand.
"Oh, no, no, Grandpa Yu, I've come to bring you good news. The paperwork for establishing a primary school in your village has been completed, and I've brought it to you personally."
After the Party Secretary finished speaking, he took out a certificate with several red stamps from his pocket and handed it to Old Master Yu. Then he slowly continued,
"Grandpa Yu, the county has ordered you to serve as the principal and hire six teachers to establish a primary school in your village."
"If there is a lack of buildings, the county can also provide some funds to help you build schools."
Upon hearing this, the old man excitedly accepted the certificate, then quickly waved his hand and said to the secretary,
"Secretary, there's no need for the county to worry. Our village still has some funds; building a primary school is no problem at all."
"The children will then be able to go to school, but the teachers' salaries will still need to be covered by the county government."
The secretary standing to the side nodded. He said earnestly.
"Don't worry, Mr. Yu. As long as you submit the list, the county will pay the teachers' salaries. It will be a proper job. You can choose the teachers yourself."
Actually, this was also the Party Secretary doing a favor for Old Master Yu, who is a well-known figure in the whole city.
So, some people originally wanted to apply for these jobs, but the Party Secretary blocked them all.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Yu was overjoyed and then welcomed the county secretary into the house.
Upon hearing the news, Wei Mo stopped listening to the two and ran out of the courtyard.
He was going to Li Sanpang's house to tell Aunt Wang Ling the good news, since Wang Ling had always been interested in the position of primary school teacher.
Moreover, the spot is currently in the old man's hands, so Wang Ling will definitely be selected as a teacher.
Li Sanpang and Wang Ling just got married and are now spending their days happily together at home.
Li Sanpang was chopping firewood outside when he saw Wei Mo running towards his house with a happy expression. Li Sanpang quickly put down his tools and called out to Wang Ling inside the house.
"Wife, Xiao Weimo is here to see you."
Upon hearing this from inside the house, Wang Ling quickly came out.
Then Wei Mo, with his short little legs, ran quickly towards his front door, shouting as he ran.
"Aunt Wang Ling, I have some good news to tell you. Can you guess what it is?"
Wang Ling was overjoyed to hear Wei Mo's words. She hadn't guessed it and looked at Wei Mo running over with great affection.
She crouched down to hug Wei Mo, but Wei Mo stopped in front of Wang Ling.
I'm a big kid now, so I won't let Aunt Wang Ling hold me.
