The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Neither Cao Shujie nor his wife Cheng Xiaolin expected that Mengmeng's cough would get worse.

Mengmeng ate less during the day and was not as active as before, but her mental state was still okay. They thought that after Mengmeng came back, she ran around and was active, and her body resistance improved.

But neither of them expected that Mengmeng suddenly started to have a high fever at about 10 o'clock in the evening. According to the mercury thermometer, Mengmeng's fever had reached 39 degrees, and her body was covered with sweat.

Cheng Xiaolin quickly said to her husband: "Shujie, go get the antipyretic medicine and give her some."

"I'll go right away." Cao Shujie put on his slippers and went to grab antipyretic medicine from the medicine box in the hut outside.

Especially after having children, ibuprofen suspension became a common medication in the home.

Cao Shujie used the small measuring cup that came with ibuprofen to pour out 4 ml of red liquid for his daughter. Before he could close the bottle cap, he ran into the bedroom anxiously: "Wife, here is the medicine for you."

"It's really sad. Mengmeng gets very serious when she catches a cold, so I usually let her run away." Cheng Xiaolin muttered, putting the measuring cup on her daughter's lips, and coaxed her softly: "Mengmeng, open your mouth quickly. Mouth, you’ll be fine after drinking the medicine.”

"Mom, I feel bad. I feel weak." Mengmeng was burning with fever at this time. She closed her eyes, felt sleepy and uncomfortable, and had no strength to speak.

After drinking the medicine, she drank a few more sips of water, and accidentally choked and coughed several times in a row, which made Cheng Xiaolin feel very distressed.

A few minutes later, Cheng Xiaolin patted her daughter's back and let her fall asleep slowly.

"I'll set a time and get up at around 3 o'clock in the evening to take a look. If the fever is still there, I'll give her some anti-fever medicine." Cheng Xiaolin then bothered to find her mobile phone and set the alarm clock.

According to the instructions, if the fever persists, take ibuprofen suspension every 6 hours.

After finishing all these tasks, a wave of sleepiness came over her, and Cheng Xiaolin couldn't hold it in any longer. She murmured in a low voice: "Shujie, I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep first."

She also spoke feebly.

As soon as his head hit the pillow and before he even covered himself with the quilt, Cao Shujie heard a gentle breathing sound coming from his ears. His wife had closed her eyes and was fast asleep.

Cao Shujie rubbed his brows to keep himself calm, washed the measuring cup and put it aside for later use. After turning off the lights in the room, Cao Shujie returned to the bed and lay down slowly, for fear of disturbing his wife if he moved too much.

Before going to bed, Cao Shujie thought of something. He set his cell phone alarm clock 10 minutes earlier than his wife's alarm clock, set it to vibrate, put it under his pillow, and took a look at his daughter who was sleeping in the back. Cao Shujie also Follow into the dream.

But Cao Shujie didn't sleep soundly. At around two o'clock in the middle of the night, he woke up early before the alarm clock vibrated.

I took out my phone and saw that the time was not yet 3 o'clock in the morning.

He raised his hand across his wife and felt Mengmeng's forehead for a while. It was still cold. Cao Shujie breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to sleep for a while, but he couldn't fall asleep even if he closed his eyes.

Lying on the bed, staring at the roof, letting his mind wander, thinking wildly.

After a while, Cao Shujie remembered something again. He reached out for his wife's cell phone and turned off the alarm clock on her cell phone in advance.

In the following time, Cao Shujie reached out and touched his daughter's forehead every once in a while. There was indeed no change at first, but then one time when he touched her forehead, he found that she had started to have a fever again. Mengmeng also turned over and over in her sleep. Maybe it was uncomfortable to be burned.

Cao Shujie didn't even take her temperature, so he got out of bed and poured 4 ml of ibuprofen suspension. After returning to the bedroom, he held his daughter's head under the moonlight and coaxed her to drink the medicine. He passed the kettle next to him and asked her to drink some water to wash down the medicine in her mouth. Cao Shujie breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Mengmeng sleeping soundly again.

During this process, his wife never woke up, and Cao Shujie had no intention of waking him up.

After Mengmeng took the medicine, it was almost half past four. Cao Shujie really couldn't sleep, so he simply got dressed, took his computer to the small room outside, and turned on the computer to search for some information that was starting to become blurry in his memory.

After getting busy, Cao Shujie didn't feel the passage of time until he occasionally heard his wife's exclamation from the bedroom. Cao Shujie came to his senses, stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

"Honey, what's wrong?" Cao Shujie pushed open the bedroom door, looked at Cheng Xiaolin who was sitting up from the bed, and asked her.

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her daughter Mengmeng on the left, and then at her husband Cao Shujie who had just pushed the door in. She blamed herself: "Honey, the alarm clock I set didn't go off. I originally wanted to get up in the middle of the night and give Mengmeng some medicine." Yes, luckily Mengmeng doesn’t have a fever.”

Hearing what was going on, Cao Shujie chuckled and said, "That's what you're talking about. I thought you were really tired, so I turned off your alarm clock when I got up in the middle of the night."

"But Mengmeng had a fever again around 4 o'clock in the morning. I gave her fever-reducing medicine and coaxed her to sleep."

After hearing what her husband said, Cheng Xiaolin knew what happened that night.

She looked at Cao Shujie with a faint smile on his face and said softly: "Why didn't you call me?"

"It's not like I can't do it, why did I wake you up? You can sleep a little longer." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

This smile was very healing, and Cheng Xiaolin felt very comfortable.

She asked: "You didn't sleep all night?"

"I slept for a few hours. I woke up at almost 3 o'clock. Then I couldn't fall asleep. I was checking information on the Internet." Cao Shujie pointed to the hut outside.

Cheng Xiaolin was very moved and said, "I'm ready to rest. Go and take a nap quickly."

"Hey, I'm not sleepy anymore. You look at Mengmeng here, and I'll go out to walk the dogs for a while, otherwise they will make trouble again." Cao Shujie said.

"Then go ahead." Cheng Xiaolin also knew that their four big dogs would be very annoying if they didn't go out for a few walks.

Watching her husband leave the room, Cheng Xiaolin reached out and touched her daughter's forehead. It felt like her body temperature was normal, and Cheng Xiaolin felt relieved.

Thinking about what her husband had just said, Cheng Xiaolin's tired face showed a happy smile again. Her husband had been silently undertaking the work that she didn't know about in the subtle ways.

…

Wang Yuelan felt very uncomfortable when her son told her that her granddaughter Mengmeng had a fever again in the evening. But when her son said that her granddaughter had taken medicine again in the evening and was now stable, she felt less anxious.

To her son: "You go walk the dog."

She was also going to make breakfast and was thinking of making something delicious for her granddaughter.

Cao Shujie led his four dogs and walked west after leaving home until they reached the dam of the Yellow River. At this time, the sun had not yet risen and the sky was still a little dark.

When Cao Shujie came up and saw that there was no one on the dam, he immediately loosened the ropes of the four dogs and allowed them to move around freely.

I was thinking about the little pug at home. Mengmeng had been feeling unwell for the past two days. Who knew the little pug was also wilting?

He had just thought of bringing the pug out, but the puppy didn't know the heart of a good person. It always looked at him with wary eyes and wouldn't follow him out even if he said nothing.

Cao Shujie had nothing to do. He was reading news on the dam with his mobile phone. There was nothing new.

It's just that some celebrity cheated on her again, causing a storm in the city, but the person involved didn't know.

Who seems to be inseparable from whom?

There were also some news items that pointed out the current status and shortcomings of economic development. The content at the beginning was written in a decent way. However, Cao Shujie glanced at it and looked down carefully, only to find that most of the posts seemed reasonable and well-founded, but the content below was not at all It doesn't stand up to scrutiny, and it might even be cut and pasted.

Cao Shujie was too lazy to complain about these messages. After a while, he logged into QQ on his mobile phone again and saw that the number of messages in several groups was 99+, but there were not many messages in the private QQ account.

Then I saw someone who wanted to add his QQ account. Judging from the avatars on the account, they were all little girls with proud figures and cool clothes. The note also said: "Brother, please add my sister. We can chat privately about interesting things." oh!"

"What the hell is this?" Cao Shujie cursed and logged out of his QQ account.

Forgetting how much time had passed, Secretary Cao looked up at the sky and realized that the sun was rising in the distance, but it was blocked by dark clouds. The weather today was not normal.

He looked carefully at the sky, and it didn't look like it was going to snow, but after staying on the dam for a little longer, his whole body became frozen and his teeth began to chatter.

"Daha, Erha, come back." Cao Shujie couldn't bear the coldness and started calling the four brothers.

Unexpectedly, the first ones to come back were two German shepherds.

Their limbs are leaping, the muscles all over their bodies are pulsing, and their bodies are as strong as flying. Coupled with their dark hair and strong bodies, they both look particularly powerful.

The two German shepherds came to Cao Shujie and rubbed their bodies directly against Cao Shujie.

But they forgot that their inertia was amazing when they ran over. Coupled with their weight of more than 50 kilograms, the two dogs swooped over together and knocked Cao Shujie onto the grass next to him.

"Your grandma, you bastard, do you want to hit me to death?" Cao Shujie complained there.

Daha and Erha also ran over. They imitated the two German shepherds and pressed on Cao Shujie. They were sticking out their tongues to lick his new year. Daha and Erha also rushed over and rubbed against the two German shepherds, sticking out their tongues. Licking Cao Shujie.

"Go away!" Cao Shujie touched his wet face and collapsed, feeling that he was unclean!

He waved the four dogs away and quickly stood up. Thinking that Mengmeng was at home and didn't know whether he was awake or not, he was not in the mood to continue playing with Daha and the others, so he tied a rope to them and took them home.

Mengmeng accidentally caught a cold this time and it lasted for four days, two of which she had a fever. Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin were both thinking that if Mengmeng's fever didn't go away, they would take her to the hospital for a checkup. After hearing Cao Shujie's thoughts, Mengmeng suddenly miraculously recovered.

No matter what happened, Cheng Xiaolin cried with joy when she saw Mengmeng jumping around again and shouting that she was hungry and wanted to eat.

She has been too tired these days, but she knows her husband is even more tired.

"Mom, let's go to the county town tonight to have a good meal and celebrate." Cao Shujie said happily.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yuelan muttered to him: "It's just right to be cute. You have to eat something light at this time. Why are you messing around? It's okay to wait until she feels better in two days before eating again."

Cheng Xiaolin said the same thing.

In her opinion, her daughter is just fine. If she goes out to eat at this time, no matter what she eats, she must be very oily, which is definitely not a good thing for Mengmeng who is recovering.

As for Cao Jianguo, he sat nearby without making any comments.

With a score of two to one, Cao Shujie was at an absolute disadvantage, and his proposal was rejected directly.

Despite this, Wang Yuelan still stewed the pork ribs, added a few potatoes, and stewed the ribs until they were mushy. After cooking, Wang Yuelan cut the meat into shreds for her granddaughter, and watched her granddaughter eat a small bowl of shredded pork and potatoes. I couldn't be more happy.

After eating, Cao Jianguo pulled Cao Shujie aside and said to his son, "Shujie, there is something I need to tell you."

"Dad, tell me." Cao Shujie wondered, why did his father need to be so serious?

Then he heard his father say: "I called your uncle and told him that we were going to pick up your grandpa, but what your uncle meant was that they would take a Saturday next month to send your grandpa back. The eldest brother, the second brother, and the rest of the family are also coming back."

"Dad, it means we don't need to go out again," Cao Shujie asked.

Cao Jianguo nodded: "We don't have to go there."

"That's okay, I'll prepare something special to entertain them then." Cao Shujie said.

He continued: "If this is the case, I will move to the new house before the end of this month. When my uncle and my brother come, they will have a place to stay at night, so there is no need to rush back on the same day."

"Well, you're right." Cao Jianguo nodded. He thought his son's suggestion was good.

In Cao Jianguo's view, after his eldest brother's family settled abroad, very few came back.

But this is human nature. Everyone has things to do, let alone a big family. It doesn’t mean that you can leave if you want.

Cao Shujie thought that except for a few QQ video chats, he and his two cousins ​​had not seen each other for a long time, so it would be good to take the opportunity to meet each other this time.

"Dad, have you decided on a specific day when my grandpa and the others will come back? I'll prepare some beef and mutton in advance." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Jianguo shook his head. The time has not been decided yet. He and his eldest brother Cao Jianlin have agreed that they will call before the eldest brother comes back with his old father.

Thinking of this, Cao Jianguo remembered something again. He smiled and said, "Your eldest brother is doing well now. He is a leader in a foreign factory. I heard from your uncle that your brother Bin is now over 30 years old." Ten thousand."

Hearing what his father said, Cao Shujie didn't feel anything at all. Before he resigned, he was still working in a subsidiary of the research institute, so what could he do?

He said lightly: "Dad, that's all. I earned almost 500,000 this year."

Hearing what Cao Shujie said, Cao Jianguo's reaction was quite big: "What do you know? I heard from your uncle that your brother Bin is in charge of more than 80 people in the factory!"

"Dad, I also care about people." Cao Shujie decided to change his father's mind.

But Cao Jianguo stretched out a finger and said contemptuously: "You only care about one person, and you have the nerve to say so."

"Dad, I'm the boss, those are my employees, I have to pay them."

"Besides, when I get bigger in the future, I can recruit more people. They all have to obey me. Anyone who disobeys will leave. My brother Bin can't do this." Cao Shujie stood up and said.

Hearing what his son said, Cao Jianguo stopped talking this time.

After a while, he stood up happily and said, "Yes, son, you are the boss now, this is incomparable."

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Why do you have to compare me with my brother Bin?" Cao Shujie didn't understand.

But Cao Jianguo smiled and waved his hand with a "hehe" and said, "It's nothing."

After he finished speaking, he didn't discuss the topic with his son anymore. He turned around and left outside.

Cao Shujie felt that his father was a little confused tonight, but his father didn't say anything, so he didn't go to find out the reason.

The next morning, Boss Wang, who installed the radiator, finally arrived.

When Cao Shujie saw him, he kept saying to him: "Boss Wang, we agreed that it would be installed in three days, why did you delay it for two more days?"

"Oh, Boss Cao, I'm really sorry. Something happened at home. The old man is not in good health. I will take care of him at home for two days." Wang Kun said.

I don't know if what he said is true or not, but when it comes to this, Cao Shujie can't say anything else.

Wang Kun and the two of them began to drill holes in the walls of several houses according to the drawn positions. After all the holes were drilled, they began to install pipes and fix radiators to the walls.

These tasks are very simple, as long as the installation position is good. What wastes time is tapping in the pipe.

This busy work lasted most of the day. Wang Kun and the others finally connected the radiator to a large stove. This stove was placed in the cooking room. It can also be used for cooking and boiling water, which can save a lot of money. gas.

"Boss Cao, please try to warm it up, and check if there is any water leakage." Wang Kun said to Cao Shujie.

Cao Shujie was not pretentious. He personally filled the furnace with carbon, then filled the radiator and pipes with water. After opening the pressure valve, the water circulated back and forth in the pipes, and the water passing through the furnace was burned into hot water. , gradually brought to other places.

To be honest, this set of heating equipment is still not as comfortable as his boiler. The water pressure is also greater, and it can better ensure that the water temperature is maintained in a certain range for a long time.

But the space on his mother's side was limited, so there was no other way, otherwise Cao Shujie would have to get the same condom for his parents.

After about ten minutes, Wang Yuelan said happily: "It's warm, the radiator is quite hot."

Hearing his mother's laughter, Cao Shujie was also very happy.

He directly handed the remaining balance to Wang Kun: "Boss Wang, thank you!"

"Hi, Boss Cao, you asked me to install the radiator because you think highly of me. Don't worry about the quality. I will give you a promise. If there are any problems with the pipes and the radiator itself within three years, I will just replace them and not repair them." Wang Kun said this.

The main reason is that Cao Shujie spends money too freely.

The heating equipment he had over there, plus this heating equipment, cost almost 20,000 yuan, but they paid without blinking an eye and paid in full, which was so satisfying!

Let’s go earlier today, stabilize the update time, and gradually stabilize my work and rest schedule, so I can have the energy to write better.

In addition, let me report the results: the current high order is 1268, all orders are 911, and the follow-up order is 670 in 24 hours. Thank you friends!
