"How about... I rent a house near her home?" Lu Mingfang asked.
"Rent? Aunt, why don't you ask Xiaoyun and Qingguo if they're willing to live in the room Jianguo and I share? Anyway, I'm staying with grandpa now and won't be going back anytime soon.
"It just so happens that our house and Dachun's are in the same yard, so it's convenient to look after them day and night. Most importantly, if there's any disturbance in Dachun's house, she'll know immediately, and the children won't be afraid knowing she's right there with us," Li Jinfeng said.
Lu Mingfang's eyes lit up immediately. "That's great! But you can't live here for free. I'll pay you rent."
Lu Mingfang is not short of money, so she is thankful that the problem can be solved.
"Aunt, look at what you said. How can a family collect rent? Just let Xiaoyun and Qingguo live there." Li Jinfeng said.
After saying that, he put his hand into his pocket and felt around. In fact, he used the pocket as a cover to take out a key from the space, "This is for you."
Looking at the key in Li Jinfeng's hand, Lu Mingfang was moved.
At critical moments, family members can still help.
She said to Li Jinfeng, "Jinfeng, thank you. You really helped me solve this big problem. Don't worry, I've told Qingguo and the others that they will definitely not stay in your and Jianguo's bedroom."
"It's okay. We don't need to be so particular. Just do whatever makes them comfortable!" Li Jinfeng said.
"good!"
Lu Mingfang's troubles were solved, and the smile on her face became bright again.
After dinner, Li Jinfeng fed Yuanyuan and Meimei some soft porridge. Before going to bed, she also made some milk for them. After they finished eating, the two children fell asleep.
Late at night, three little kids were lying side by side on the big bed in Li Jinfeng's room, each covered with a thick quilt made by Li Jinfeng. The one closest to her, Tuantuan, was the biggest and had the most flesh on his cheeks.
The little guy fell asleep with a smile on his face. He must have had a sweet dream.
Yuanyuan and Meimei are a little smaller in size, but they are also white and plump.
When both children can call "Mom" and talk, Li Jinfeng estimates that the scene will be like a chicken and duck having a small meeting.
But she is still looking forward to it!
…
The next morning, it was snowing heavily outside. Tuantuan saw Li Jinfeng going to work and insisted on following her.
"Mom, it's snowing. Let's go play." Tuantuan pointed outside the house.
This is the third snowfall this year. The first two times, the snow was not so heavy, but it was still enough to freeze people half to death.
Li Jinfeng was very glad that she was transferred from the machine room downstairs to the factory committee. There was a stove in the factory committee office and a quota of charcoal every month. If she saved some, she would have no problem getting through the winter.
The front-line workers working downstairs have it miserable. In the middle of winter, their fingers are almost frozen off, and they still have to check the operation of the machines.
At this time, the most comfortable place in the entire state-owned factory might be the boiler room, which is hot all day long, but the workers inside are also tired.
Even in the middle of winter, I was sweating profusely.
It’s even worse in the summer. You can get heatstroke if you stay inside for half a day.
But the boiler room cannot be stopped. The operation of the entire factory production line depends on the steam burned in each boiler room for power.
At this time, although electricity was available, large machines were still driven by steam engines.
Moreover, electricity is more expensive than coal. The money for one kilowatt-hour of electricity is enough to buy a lot of coal.
"Mom... let's go play!" Tuantuan pointed to the heavy snow falling outside.
