Li Wenjun shook his head: "Tsk, tsk, you must be angry from embarrassment."
Li Wenyong also shook his head: "Well, if you are not capable enough, how can you blame us?"
Tao Guangming's hysterical voice came from afar: "Shut up, or I'll kill you two bastards."
After Li Wenyong finished laughing, he was troubled: "Suddenly I thought about the fact that in addition to being sick, all the people at home are pregnant women or have children. We are both busy, who will do the housework."
Li Wenjun thought for a while: "How about we hire a nanny to help."
In fact, he had wanted to hire a nanny for a long time, but he was afraid that Liu Cuihong and the others would not agree.
Both Liu Cuihong and Li Changming came from poor backgrounds, and they felt that having to hire a nanny to do things like cooking and washing clothes was simply the style of old-fashioned ladies and gentlemen in the old society. It was extremely evil!
Li Wenyong: "That's not good. Our family is already very luxurious. If we hire a nanny to do housework again, wouldn't we be stabbed in the spine?"
Li Wenjun said: "Then you do it? I don't have time."
Li Wenyong thought: After Gu Zhanyan and Liu Dongmei were pregnant and in confinement, they would not be able to work for at least a year. Even after confinement, there would definitely be more household chores with two more babies at home. How much can he and Li Wenjun do?
God, but it will definitely not work in the long run.
Besides, as the new year begins, Li Wenjun will definitely be running around again, and he will be taking care of five people by himself. He is now the deputy mine director, and he can't finish the approval of documents in a day, and he will also be a nanny when he comes back...
It’s stressful just thinking about it.
He hesitated and said: "Then please invite one?"
Li Wenjun laughed so hard: "What if? Do you have any other good ideas?"
"If you want to invite me, please do it as soon as possible," Li Wenyong said.
Li Wenjun sighed: "I can suddenly change it somewhere..."
Speaking of which, it's really hard to find someone. People in this era have not yet changed their minds. Most people would rather go hungry than serve others.
Li Wenyong said: "Let's talk it through to my parents first. Now that my father needs someone to take care of him, my parents can't work too hard. It's a good time to raise this matter."
------
Huo Duanming's family members came to Li Wenyong to apologize for throwing excrement at his door. Li Wenyong knew that they did not really want to apologize, but that Huo Duanming's certificate of death in the line of duty had to be signed by him before it could be approved.
Although he felt that Huo Duanming had brought it upon himself, everyone was dead. He didn't want to embarrass his family members. Thinking that such a large labor force was suddenly gone, the family members would naturally take whatever money they could get from the mine. He could understand that.
.
And Huo Duanming did ask Guo Jianguang. In theory, there is nothing wrong with it.
So Li Wenyong finally signed the certificate.
------
Li Wenjun and Li Wenyong made an appointment to take turns buying breakfast. Then they thought that one, three, five, two, and six was too troublesome, so they finally asked Tao Guangming to join them. Each person would take turns for one day.
This morning I started with Tao Guangming.
Early in the morning, Tao Guangming was pulled up from the quilt by Li Wenjun, a bunch of thermos pots, lunch boxes, enamel jars, meal tickets and other stuff were stuffed into his hands, and he was asked to buy breakfast for nine people.
Tao Guangming cursed and left, then came back cursing again, put down his breakfast, took his and Ji Rushi's share and went back.
While eating breakfast, Li Wenjun winked at Li Wenyong.
Li Wenyong was so helpless: That's the bad thing about being the boss, he was responsible for all bad things.
Li Wenyong coughed dryly and said, "Well, Mom and Dad, I have some good news for you."
Liu Cuihong looked at him: Besides becoming the deputy mine director, is there any better news?
Li Wenyong said: "Dongmei is pregnant."
Liu Cuihong took a breath and turned to look at Liu Dongmei: "Dongmei, really? When did it happen?"
Liu Dongmei's face turned red with embarrassment: "It's been two months."
Li Wenjun had to admire Li Wenyong. He was still very strong in some aspects. For example, when discussing things with Liu Cuihong and Li Changming, he would talk about pregnancy first.
Li Wenjun hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Gu Zhanyan is also pregnant, about the same time." He helped Liu Cuihong sit down to prevent her from getting too excited.
Liu Cuihong was stunned, and then started to laugh: "Oh my, that's great. God sees that we have been so unlucky recently, and he has sent us good news one after another."
When Liu Dongmei heard this, she grabbed Gu Zhanyan's hand and said, "Oh, that's great. We can do prenatal check-ups together then."
Gu Zhanyan pursed her lips: "No, this time, I have company."
Li Wenyong added: "Mom, look. Dad is now in a wheelchair. He has to follow him alone in everything he does. It will take him at least three months to six months to fully recover. It will take at least three months to half a year to fully recover.
I’m pregnant. I need someone to take care of me. Young Master and I are very busy. Can we hire someone to help with housework?”
Liu Cuihong was a little moved.
But when Li Changming heard this, he shook his head like a rattle: "What are you talking about? Your mother used to serve seven or eight people by herself. Besides, Dongmei and Zhanyan can't do anything. We are a working class family.
How can working people be like capitalists and still hire servants at home? Besides, where will they live? I don’t like having many strangers at home.”
When Liu Cuihong heard this, she could only say: "It's okay, I can do it."
Li Wenyong pursed his lips and exchanged helpless looks with Li Wenjun.
Li Wenyong said: "How about I divide the work into two. You choose one of washing clothes or washing dishes. Mom cooks and cleans."
Although washing clothes is not done every day, it is quite painful to wash clothes for seven or eight people. Moreover, Gu Zhanyan likes to be clean, so he has to take a bath for two or three days even when it is the coldest. You can use hot water for washing dishes, but it is always difficult to wash clothes.
It's better to use hot water.
Although washing dishes is easier, you have to wash them twice a day, every day.
Li Wenjun thought for a while and said, "I'll do the laundry."
Liu Dongmei smiled: "I can still do the work of washing dishes and clothes."
Gu Zhanyan said: "Yes, it's no problem to buy food and cook."
Then Li Wenjun and Li Wenyong said together: "No."
Liu Cuihong said to Liu Dongmei and Gu Zhanyan: "Let them work together. If you don't do it now, you won't have the chance to do it in the future."
Liu Cuihong asked Liu Dongmei: "Have you told your mother's family?"
Liu Dongmei said shyly: "Not yet, I plan to tell them after a while."
Liu Cuihong: "It's better to say it earlier. After all, it's a big deal."
Liu Dongmei nodded: "Okay."
Liu Cuihong turned to look at Gu Zhanyan, wanting to say the same thing, but suddenly realized that Gu Zhanyan had not contacted her mother's family since she came to the mining area, and no family members even came to attend the wedding. She had to ask Gu Zhanyan to call back, which would make her sad again.
The key point is that she doesn't even know whether Gu Zhanyan has any relatives.
Liu Cuihong made up her mind and said: "Zhanyan should pay attention to rest, let Diandian sleep less with Jun, or sleep alone, be careful of kicking Diandian in the stomach."
Gu Zhanyan knew the reason for Liu Cuihong's pause just now, but she pretended not to notice and smiled: "Now Diandian is happy to sleep in her own little bed."
She turned around and asked Diandian: "Right, Diandian."
