Li Chenmo smiled when he saw those words. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed it to Comrade Jiang, and said, "Comrade Jiang, thank you for your help today."
Jiang Zemin saw the cigarette brand and happily accepted it. A pack of these cigarettes costs 12 yuan, and you need an industrial coupon to purchase them. Normally, people would buy one package for 140 yuan, which is equivalent to twelve packs, which is 4 yuan cheaper than buying it on retail.
"Comrade Li, it’s a small matter. If you need help in the future, just come and find me." Jiang Zemin said with a smile.
Li Chenmo stood up and said, "I will. I won’t take your time any longer. See you next time, Comrade Jiang."
After he sent off Li Chenmo, Jiang Zemin divided the cigarettes with his comrades.
When he got home, he saw his wife and adoptive children chatting happily while making wine. Seeing the smile on his wife’s face and bright eyes, he felt that adopting the Dong siblings was the right thing to do. With them accompanying his wife, she will not feel lonely when he is not at home.
Seeing that her husband was back, Lu Jueyu said, "Husband, you are back. Has the matter been resolved?"
Li Chenmo parked his bicycle, walked to his wife, leaned over and kissed her forehead, and said, "Mhmm, it’s settled."
Seeing their affection, Dong Li and Dong Huang have been working with them for almost a month and are used to it.
Hearing his words, Dong Huang was overjoyed and blurted out, "Foster father, you are back!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, including Dong Li. He had told Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu before that they couldn’t call them Father and Mother. However, his sister now calls Uncle Li her Foster father. He looked at his sister with mixed emotions. He wanted to correct his sister, but the words stuck in his throat.
Li Chenmo squatted in front of her, patted Dong Huang’s head, and said with a smile, "Good girl."
Hearing his praise, Dong Huang felt happy. She looked at Lu Jueyu with bright eyes and sweetly shouted, "Foster mother!"
Lu Jueyu came to her senses after hearing this, nodded, and said, "En, good daughter."
For Dong Huang, calling Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu her foster father and foster mother was a matter of course. Now that they have been adopted by Uncle Li and Aunt Li, they should be called father and mother.
After Dong Huang called them, the three of them looked at Dong Li. Seeing his sister’s expectant eyes, he smiled helplessly and said, "Foster father, Foster mother."
