The leisurely life of a reborn dad

"Dad, why haven't you found me yet? You're so stupid." Mengmeng squatted behind the sofa. After a little longer, she lost her composure.

"I'm looking for it. Oops, where is Mengmeng hiding? Why can't I find it?" Cao Shujie said.

He searched several rooms, but he couldn't find even the shadow of a ghost.

Sitting on the sofa, Cao Huifang watched her brother's operation throughout the entire process. In addition to admiration, she was still impressed!

It's not that easy to be a 'blind person', so her brother deserves full marks.

Seeing her brother turn around, Cao Huifang gave him a thumbs up.

But in Cao Shujie's opinion, is this mocking me?

Angry, Cao Shujie wanted to take off his shoes and throw them at his sister.

Just as Cao Shujie was walking forward, Mengmeng might have numbed her legs from squatting, or maybe it was because "Dad is too stupid" made her annoyed. She stood up and ran directly to her father: "Dad, why are you so stupid? , I will hide there, and you won’t be able to find me.”

She also pointed to the sofa herself, which made Cao Shujie not sure what to say.

Cheng Xiaolin was cutting meat in the kitchen. When she heard the noise outside, she couldn't help but laugh softly. Her hand shook and she almost cut her finger.

I don’t dare to be distracted this time, and hurry up and work hard.

"It's so cute, why don't you use your brain when playing games?" Cheng Xiaolin muttered.

Cao Shujie played games with his daughter until around nine o'clock in the evening. Mengmeng began to feel sleepy again. Cao Shujie was overjoyed and quickly held her in his arms, humming a lullaby and slowly coaxing Mengmeng to sleep.

After Mengmeng fell asleep, she carried her upstairs and put her on the bed. Cheng Xiaolin asked her, "Are you tired today?"

"Nonsense, my whole body hurts from exhaustion." Cao Shujie complained.

He got up in the morning and went to the market in the town. He had a really busy day. In the evening, he took his daughter to set off fireworks and just played games with her. Cao Shujie didn't rest at all.

He felt like all the bones in his body were falling apart now, and he desperately wanted to lie down in bed and sleep.

Cheng Xiaolin also felt sorry for him and said, "You lie down and I'll rub it for you."

"Okay." Cao Shujie lay down happily.

When Cheng Xiaolin was rubbing the tight muscles on her legs and arms for him, not long after, she suddenly heard snoring in her ears. She turned around and saw that her husband had fallen asleep.

"I'm so tired, I want to sleep too." Cheng Xiaolin also lay down next to her husband and followed him into sleep.

…

At the same time, in Changji, Xinjiang, Cao Zhen and Patiguli have been getting together since they declared their relationship. According to the original plan, he should have returned to Mingbo Textile Co., Ltd. in Pingyuan County last week. He had to find various excuses to delay his reporting work until now.

This time his uncle Lian Xuezhu called him personally. In addition, the company had the Spring Festival holiday on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. There were still six days left. Cao Zhen couldn't leave this time.

Patiguli held his arm and asked him in a consultative tone: "Stay for two more days?"

Cao Zhen felt a faint pain in his back. It was great to live a life without idleness in the past few days, but the days were long, so he couldn't die of overwork in advance.

"Patiguli, I will leave early and come back early, and try to come back as early as possible after the new year." Cao Zhen said.

"Well, I've prepared everything for you. You can take it back and share it with your family and friends." Patiguli pointed to the two suitcases in the room, which contained the Xinjiang she had prepared. specialty.

These things cost a lot of money, but Patiguli was a small restaurant owner and a wealthy woman, so she didn't care about this small amount of money.

When Cao Zhen packed his luggage into a backpack and took a taxi to the train station, Patiguli kept looking at Cao Zhen affectionately, really reluctant to let him go.

Cao Zhen also said jokingly: "Patiguli, why don't you go back with me."

Thinking that it would be boring for Patiguli to celebrate the New Year here alone, it would be better to go back with him. That would be great.

Patiguli thought for a while and then shook her head: "It's too fast. I have to slow down. Next time, I will definitely go back with you."

Cao Zhen stopped trying to persuade her. The two of them held hands and waited for the bus at the station. There were many people at the waiting station, all of whom had come from all over the country and had worked hard for a year and were ready to go home and reunite with their families during the Chinese New Year.

I don’t know how much time passed before the train pulled into the station.

The loudspeaker in the waiting room started shouting "ticket check", and Cao Zhen held Patiguli's hand tighter.

"Go quickly, I'll wait for you to come back." Patiguli said with a smile.

At this moment, the smile of this alien girl was deeply etched in Cao Zhen's mind, and he felt that he would never forget it in his life.

As he walked forward with the flow of people, Cao Zhen dragged two suitcases and looked back at her from time to time. The short journey to the ticket check made him feel like he was about to leave.

Cao Zhen boarded the train dragging two suitcases and carrying a black backpack. He found his soft sleeper and sat down. His heart was still a little empty. This time, he really knew what it was like to be in love, and he also knew how to be worried. What a feeling.

He took out Patiguli's photo from his bag and looked at it carefully. Cao Zhen thought about throwing the photo to his mother when he got home: "You've already put down the blind date. I'll find a daughter-in-law for you."

"Haha!" Cao Zhen giggled.

After a while, Cao Zhen felt sleepy. After working hard for a few days, Cao Zhen couldn't stand it anymore, so he lay down on the berth and started to sleep.

In the rhythm of the train's "clang, clang, clang, clang", Cao Zhen also fell into a dream.

There were also many homesick people on this train. They all lay down on small tables, sat on hard seats, or stood in the corner leaning against the wall of the train car, slowly falling asleep.

When there were more people, some were eating instant noodles, some were eating garlic, and some were taking off their shoes to sleep. Coupled with the smell of sweat from people who hadn’t changed into new clothes or hadn’t taken a shower, various smells slowly filled the carriage. The fusion spread, and the whole carriage was filled with this strange smell, but no one complained. At this time, nothing could stop them from eager to go home!

…

The moon sets and the sun rises, it's a new day.

Cao Shujie got up at around five o'clock and took his four brothers Daha and Erha to the Yellow River dam in the east for more than an hour.

The energetic Daha and Erha are not so active now.

Cao Shujie watched the four of them changing day by day, thinking that when he first picked them up, they all looked like little puppies, but now even the lightest Erha weighs almost 50 pounds, and the heaviest one weighs 50 pounds. Hei Ye weighs over 60 pounds. Time flies so fast.

"Daha, Erha, Dahei, Xiaohei, after the Chinese New Year, you will be two years old. Do you want to find a bitch for you and end your single life?" Cao Shujie was thinking in his mind.

If they were left alone for the rest of their lives, never having tasted the wonderful feeling of a match made in heaven, and leaving no seed when they grow old, wouldn't it be too miserable for them? Wouldn't the four brothers also have to hate themselves when they go underground? ?

"Oh!" Daha howled at him, as if to express his dissatisfaction.

Erha squinted his face, not even bothering to look at him.

As for the two German shepherds, their dog eyes have been staring at the north, not knowing what is there to attract them.

While he was thinking wildly, Cao Shujie suddenly saw a van roaring towards him from the north.

Seeing that the car had an out-of-town license plate and three people sitting in the car, Cao Shujie thought that these were people who had returned from working in other places, so he didn't pay attention and let the car run past him.

"Woof, woof, woof," the yellow-and-black-haired Dahei screamed wildly, the cry was like thunder, which made people feel scared.

Xiao Hei also called out, and the two of them struggled to jump on the chain, trying to catch up.

Cao Shujie glanced at the passing van suspiciously, but he didn't pay much attention.

"gone."

Cao Shujie stood up and led his four dogs home from the dam intersection in the north.

However, there were three people sitting in the van that Cao Shujie didn't pay attention to. When they passed by Cao Shujie and the four dogs, they all looked out.

The fat man in the middle row of seats asked in surprise: "Damn it, Brother Qiang, where are the four dogs? Can you handle them?"

"Get a ball, didn't you see there was someone there? Besides, those four dogs are so vicious, what are you going to do?" Brother Qiang, the bald man in the passenger seat, scolded him, speaking without thinking.

Hearing what Brother Qiang said, the person who was driving said: "Brother Qiang, we can wait and wait for the right opportunity before doing it."

"That person who came out so early must be a dog walker. I guess his home is nearby. It's not far anyway. We can go to other places first to get a few more dogs and sell them during the Chinese New Year to make more money. Flowers.”

"Go and take a look at the front first." The bald Brother Qiang said after pondering for a moment.

Stealing a dog has never been a glorious thing. If someone is really caught, they can be beaten to death.

But those four dogs just now were really good dogs!

In addition to the three of them in the car, there were several dogs of different breeds and sizes lying behind the middle row of seats. It was unclear whether they were dead or alive.

…

After leading Daha and the four brothers back home, Cao Shujie tied them up before entering the house to wash hands and cook.

Who knew that his wife was busy in the kitchen, saw him coming back, and asked him: "Come back so soon?"

"It's too cold on the dam. Wife, did you get up to make the dumplings?" Cao Shujie walked up behind his wife, put his arms around her waist, put his chin on his wife's shoulder, and stared at the dumplings rolling in the pot. .

"You came back just as I finished making the dumplings stuffed with mutton. What a good time." Cheng Xiaolin rolled her eyes at him.

Who knew that Cao Shujie had sharp eyes and a quick mouth, so when his wife turned her head, he pecked her directly on the mouth.

"Go away, don't interrupt my cooking." Cheng Xiaolin pushed her elbow back, but Cao Shujie blocked it at the critical moment.

Cao Shujie complained about her: "Honey, I'm just going to kiss you, there's no need to be so harsh!"

"You are just causing trouble for me." Cheng Xiaolin nagged him.

Cao Shujie wanted to say something more, but when he heard footsteps coming from outside, he let go of his arms and said, "You cook first, and I'll go upstairs to see Mengmeng."

"Go ahead. If she's not awake yet, wake her up and get ready to eat." Cheng Xiaolin said.

As soon as he came out of the kitchen door, Cao Shujie saw his sister Cao Huifang coming over. The brother and sister said hello, and Cao Shujie went directly upstairs.

When she walked to the door of the bedroom, Mengmeng was already awake and playing alone on the bed.

Sometimes he rolls here, sometimes he rolls over there, and sometimes he even lifts the quilt on his body.

Fortunately, the heating temperature in the room was very high, so she was not afraid of catching a cold.

"Mengmeng, are you awake?" Cao Shujie came in and asked her.

Mengmeng saw her father coming in, with a smile on her face: "Dad."

"Why didn't you call you mom?" Cao Shujie wondered.

In the past, Mengmeng could not find anyone after waking up, so she usually cried to attract attention.

Who knew that Mengmeng said: "Mom is busy, I am playing by myself."

For a moment, Cao Shujie seemed to see Mengmeng in her teenage years. Although she was still very naughty, she was indeed sensible.

"Come here, daddy will get you dressed. Mommy has made the dumplings. Let's go down and eat the dumplings, okay." Cao Shujie picked up the clothes his wife put on the bedside and called Mengmeng over.

When he heard about eating dumplings, the little guy nodded happily and said, "Okay, Dad, I like eating dumplings the most."

After saying that, Mengmeng stood up, ran towards her father, opened her hands and asked him to dress her.

At the same time, she didn't forget to ask: "Dad is buying fireworks today."

"Oh, yes, daddy will take you to the county town to buy fireworks later, okay?" Cao Shujie happily agreed.

He said: "Let's buy more."

I had a lot of fun last night and set off all the 10 fireworks I just bought.

He was still a little unsatisfied and felt that he had bought too little. He thought about going to the fireworks factory in the county today to buy more and set off enough in one go.

Mengmeng was very happy to hear her father agreeing so happily. She clapped her little hands and said, "Okay, Dad, I'll go with you."

"No problem, we'll leave after breakfast later," Cao Shujie said.

Mengmeng kept nodding her head after hearing this, and said she had to eat as soon as possible.

During the meal, Mengmeng ate very quickly. Cheng Xiaolin also wondered what was going on with Mengmeng. It was completely inconsistent with her usual procrastination in eating.

She turned to look at her husband in confusion, and then heard her husband say: "I'll go buy fireworks after dinner later."

Cheng Xiaolin instantly understood that her daughter was also motivated to eat so enthusiastically.

However, Cao Shujie did not break his promise. After his wife, daughter and sister had finished eating, he drove them to buy fireworks.

Caojiazhuang is not far from Pingyuan County. There are several fireworks factories in the county. One of them, Jinsheng Fireworks, has a direct sales store in front of the factory. People who came to buy fireworks at this time blocked the door.

Seeing the excitement, Cheng Xiaolin secretly exclaimed: "This business is really good. It would be great if our fruits can sell so well when they mature."

"I don't think it's a big problem." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Huifang asked him: "Brother, in which month will the strawberries mature?"

"End of March or beginning of April, what happened?" Cao Shujie wondered.

Then he heard his sister say: "I'm thinking that when your strawberries are ripe, we can come over and pick them."

"It would be best if it's in April, as it happens to be a three-day holiday during the Qingming Festival." Cao Huifang said this, and her calculation was quite good.

Cao Shujie didn't care either, he said, "Absolutely."

Strawberries grown in greenhouses are now on the market, but they are expensive and taste bad.

Cao Shujie's open-air cultivation has always provided sufficient nutrition, and he is confident that the taste will be good.

As for the price, Cao Shujie never planned to sell it cheaply from the beginning, otherwise he would not be able to get back the capital, let alone his investment being so large.

Mengmeng was sitting in the car, watching the people coming in and out of the fireworks factory store opposite. She was very anxious, for fear that those people would buy all the fireworks in the store. She said to her father several times: "Dad, Hurry up and buy it, it’s sold out.”

What she meant was that those people bought all the fireworks.

But Cao Shujie was not worried at all. He pointed to the factory next to him and said, "Don't worry, Mengmeng. The factory has been producing. Dad will buy you a lot of fireworks today, okay?"

Mengmeng was overjoyed after hearing this, this is the best.

She also stretched out her hands to gesture, and said in an exaggerated tone: "Dad, I want so many fireworks."

"Okay, let's fill the car with fireworks later." Cao Shujie teased his daughter.

After more than half an hour, they saw that there were fewer people entering the fireworks store, so they got out of the car and walked towards the fireworks store opposite.

Cao Huifang was also looking around at this time.

There are several factories that make fireworks throughout Pingyuan County, but this factory called 'Jinsheng Fireworks' has the cheapest price, good quality, and an overall reputation.

Many wholesalers of fireworks come here to buy their goods.

There is a person who buys a lot of fireworks and will come here to buy them.

After entering the store, Cao Huifang looked at the different styles of fireworks around her and felt dazzled instantly.

"Brother, there are so many fireworks here."

Mengmeng's eyes widened as she looked at all the different fireworks. She wanted them all.

"Dad, this, that, and this..."

Wherever Mengmeng goes, she points her finger, and she wants all the fireworks she can put her fingers on.

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her daughter like this and really wanted to slap her in the face to tell her to stop being so arrogant.

Mengmeng had no idea how dangerous the situation she had just faced was. She still chose Zhenghuan and walked almost halfway around the store, with her fingers scratching halfway. Even Cao Shujie had a headache after seeing it.

Does this mean he wants to buy the entire fireworks factory?

"Wife, look at what you want to buy, buy more, and have a good time." Cao Shujie said to his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin didn't know how to be polite. She said, "You look at Mengmeng first, and I'll go take a look."

While talking, Cheng Xiaolin started shopping from the other side.

There was a waiter in the store, and when she saw Cheng Xiaolin looking at the introduction of various fireworks carefully, she went over and asked, and then began to explain the effects of various fireworks to Cheng Xiaolin.

There was a short video of fireworks next to it. Cheng Xiaolin was watching it very seriously at this time. After watching the video, she chose several types of fireworks and asked the waiter to bring her a few more.

Unknowingly, Cheng Xiaolin had selected seven or eight varieties.

On the other side, Cao Shujie held his daughter Mengmeng's hand and walked forward. His sister Cao Huifang followed behind and was also choosing fireworks.

This place is different from the big stores. You don’t have to rush to finish your selection and leave. The prices here are also very cheap.

Cheng Xiaolin also found the type of fireworks she bought at the market. At that time, she thought there was a stall selling them for 16 yuan each, which was considered a bargain. But when she came here, she learned that the same type of fireworks cost just over 7 yuan. Money one.

"Three times the profit, this money is really good." Cheng Xiaolin didn't know what to say.

She now fully understands the meaning of that sentence, buying is worse than selling!

People keep saying that they sell at a loss, so they keep their capital, but compared to this price, they still make at least double the profit. How can this be justified?

At this moment, Cheng Xiaolin even had the idea of ​​buying more fireworks in bulk and selling them back.

Anyway, no one cares about this now.

The more she thought about it, the more feasible it became. When Cheng Xiaolin saw her husband not far away, she ran directly to her husband and told him her thoughts without choosing any fireworks.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Cao Shujie muttered to her: "Honey, there are so many profitable businesses, and you still want to do them all."

"Don't think about anything, let's just plant a good orchard and sell our fruits." Cao Shujie said to her.

At the end, he said: "You might as well take advantage of the bargain here and sell more fireworks!"

Cheng Xiaolin wanted to find some reasons to convince him, but finally gave up.

Her husband is right, take advantage of the cheap prices of fireworks here, buy more, and have fun during the Chinese New Year.

Cheng Xiaolin is not afraid of the lack of fireworks, but is afraid that their car is too small to hold many fireworks.

He was muttering, but before he could think of a good idea, he heard the waiter next to him say: "Beauty, if you buy a lot, we can deliver it to your home for free."

Cheng Xiaolin thought to herself that this service is really thoughtful!

When they came back from Pingyuan County, the trunk of the car and the passenger seat were full of fireworks.

Mengmeng looked at the fireworks, giggling all the way, and yelled: "I will do the throwing of the cannons myself."

"Okay, can you throw the cannon by yourself when you get home?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her.

Mengmeng nodded and said with a smile: "Okay."

There was no car inspection on the road, and they returned home smoothly. Cao Shujie first unloaded all the fireworks in the car.

Mengmeng didn't care that her father was busy, she was chasing him to throw the cannon.

Cheng Xiaolin couldn't stand it, so she found a cannon for her daughter and asked her to play with it by herself.

Who knew that Mengmeng opened the bag of throwing cannons, grabbed a handful of throwing cannons and threw them to the ground.

The sound of "pah pah pah" sounded, and all the cannons in Mengmeng's hand were thrown out.

She thought it was really fun to play like this, so she threw another handful out.

After seeing her father coming over, Mengmeng's eyes were rolling. She took out a package directly from the box and broke it. She didn't even tear the bag and threw it at her father's feet.

The banging banging sound startled Cao Shujie.

After Cao Shujie calmed down, Mengmeng was in trouble.

Cao Shujie didn't tolerate her this time, and slapped Mengmeng firmly on her butt. At that moment, he didn't care.

But if it had been someone else just now, if it had been his grandfather, and that bag of cannons had been thrown at his grandfather's feet, his grandfather would probably have been startled, and then fell down...

Mengmeng was beaten, and it was useless no matter how sad she cried. Cheng Xiaolin did not help her this time. She also felt that what her daughter did just now was indeed a bit too much.

…

It was only after one o'clock when Cao Shujie came out of home after finishing his work.

She noticed that several trucks with welded reinforced concrete frames drove into Caojiazhuang and continued to drive south.

When he smelled the smell of pig feces emanating from the car, Cao Shujie blinked. He seemed to know what they were doing?

"Could it be that Uncle Hua's pigs are going to be sold?" Cao Shujie thought to himself.

He knew that Cao Jianhua's 300 pigs had not yet been sold. Thinking about it, he knew that he would have to wait for the price on the market to be higher.

This is normal, no one says anything.

"Go and have a look?" Cao Shujie had an idea in mind. He didn't want to walk to the south end of Caojiazhuang, so he went home and told his wife, rode an electric bike directly to the Yellow River dam, and then walked south. Prepare to go down from the dam intersection on the south side, which is very close to Cao Jianhua's pig farm.

While walking on the dam, Cao Shujie suddenly spotted a van coming from the south. He saw that the van seemed to have an out-of-town license plate, and it looked familiar to him. He felt like he had seen it somewhere before.

"When have I seen it?" Cao Shujie thought seriously.

When he passed the van, he turned his head and glanced inside the van. There were two people sitting in the front and one person sitting in the middle. He couldn't see clearly from behind.

However, when he passed the van, Cao Shujie vaguely heard a barking sound coming from the van. It was not loud, and he didn't know if he heard it wrong.

He continued riding his electric scooter southward, and soon he arrived at the south intersection of Damxia. He went straight down and turned left. After a while, he saw Cao Jianhua's pig farm.

…

At this time, in the van running slowly on the dam, the bald Brother Qiang was also frowning and thinking. He asked the other two people in the van: "Did you think the guy riding the electric bike looked familiar?"

"Brother Qiang, who's riding an electric bike?" The man in the middle seat had been playing with his mobile phone and didn't even notice what was going on outside.

The young man driving the car was also frowning and thinking. After a quick glance just now, he vaguely remembered where he had seen the other person.

After a while, he said ‘Ouch’ and said, “Brother Qiang, the guy riding the electric bike just now is the guy we saw walking the dog in the morning, right?”

"You're right, it's him!" Brother Bald Qiang nodded: "I wonder why he looks so familiar."

As soon as he thought of this, Brother Qiang muttered: "I don't know if he still remembers us. If he does, we can't be here anymore and have to change places."

"Brother Qiang, are you overthinking this? How ordinary is our van? It has a foreign license plate. Who can remember us?" said the young man driving the van.

This principle is very simple and can be understood with a little thought.

After listening to this, Brother Bald Qiang nodded repeatedly: Collar, what you said makes sense. "

"But when I go back today, I need to clean up these dogs first. Leaving them in the car is also a problem." Bald Qiang said.

The other two people had the same idea. Taking advantage of the fact that the Chinese New Year was approaching and dog meat was in short supply, they first went to the county town to sell the dogs for money, so that they could be safe.

"Let's go to the county town first and come back tomorrow." Brother Bald Qiang said.

…

Cao Shujie came to the outside of Cao Jianhua's pig farm and saw several trucks parked at the door of the pig farm. Cao Jianhua and several people were busy in the pig farm, preparing to catch pigs.

Seeing Cao Shujie coming, Cao Jianhua called out to him: "Shujie, why are you here?"

"Uncle Hua, I just saw these cars heading south, and I knew they were coming to your side." Cao Shujie said.

Hearing what Cao Shujie said, Cao Jianhua said with a smile: "The pigs are already weighing a lot. If the price is still good, sell them as soon as possible and save some feed money."

The pigs he raised were ready for slaughter more than ten days ago. Some people came over and asked him if he would sell them, but he didn't and kept waiting.

Now that I think the price of 8 yuan and 70 cents per pound is appropriate, I contacted the slaughterhouse in the county and prepared to sell them all.

The slaughterhouse knew that he had 300 pigs here, and it was when they needed the pigs most, so they reached an agreement immediately and settled the bill in cash.

"Eight yuan and seven pounds per pound, this price is really not low." Cao Shujie also pays attention to the recent purchase price of live pigs, and he knows a little bit about it.

Cao Jianhua nodded with a smile: "This price is fine, I don't ask for much, just don't pay, that's it."

The piglets he originally bought were equivalent to more than 600 yuan each, and now a pig for slaughter weighs more than 200 kilograms. At this conversion, a pig for slaughter can be sold for more than 1,700 yuan. At this price, after deducting labor costs, full-price feed breeding costs, etc. This is equivalent to about 800 yuan. In theory, the remaining profit from a pig is three to four hundred yuan.

300 pigs, totaling at least 90,000 pigs.

Not only did he not lose money, but he also made some money. Cao Jianhua was really satisfied this time.

When he saw Cao Shujie, his gratitude to Cao Shujie could not be concealed.

He kept saying: "Shujie, when I'm done, let's have a drink together tonight."

"Uncle Jianhua, do you still have rain boots? I'll help you." Cao Shujie said.

But Cao Jianhua waved his hand: "Don't come in. This thing is too dirty. There are pig manure everywhere. It's hard to wash if you get it on."

It's true, Cao Shujie can't stand being smoked outside.

But he was not deterred by this. He still found a pair of rain boots and put them on to help.

He was not the one who caught the pigs. When he saw three points weighing at the same time, he chose one of them and went over to help with the accounting.

This busy work ended when it got dark. Cao Jianhua turned on the lights of the pig farm and continued to catch and weigh pigs. He worked until almost 8 o'clock in the evening before the pig farm was completely cleaned up.

Cao Jianhua originally wanted to ask them to go home for dinner together, but they all smelled strange, and it was very late at this time, so they dispersed first.

Before leaving, Cao Jianhua also said that he would invite them to have dinner together at noon tomorrow.

Cao Shujie did not refuse.

It was almost half past eight when I returned home on my electric bike.

As soon as Cao Shujie entered the house, Daha and Erha, the two dogs in the house, smelled the stench and screamed wildly. When Cao Shujie shouted: "Daha, Erha, it's me."

The four dogs stopped barking, but Cheng Xiaolin in the room pinched her nose and said, "Shujie, did you just get out of the dung heap?"

"Go to help Uncle Jianhua and sell pigs to him." Cao Shujie said, "Honey, go upstairs and bring me a new set of clothes. I'll take a shower on the first floor."

Cheng Xiaolin hurriedly went to get him clothes.

Cao Huifang, who was reading in the living room on the first floor, was also badly smoked. She stopped staying in the living room and walked into the room holding her nose: "Brother, this smell is too unpleasant."

"You go ahead and play." Cao Shujie didn't care.

After his wife took off his clothes, Cao Shujie went directly to the bathroom to take a shower.

Mengmeng ran out of nowhere. As soon as she came over, she shouted loudly: "Mom, where is dad?"

"I heard Daddy's voice," she said.

But then she smelled a stink in her nose, and she covered her nose with both hands: "Oh, it stinks, it stinks!"

"Mom, did daddy poop?" Mengmeng then asked.

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her daughter and felt tired.

Cao Shujie took two showers in the bathroom, applied shower gel twice, and then smelled his body. Only then did he feel better.

When he came out of the bathroom, he saw his wife still sitting on the sofa outside, so he asked her: "Honey, guess how much Uncle Hua's pigs sold for?"

"How much?" Cheng Xiaolin really had no idea.

She made a random guess and asked: "Three hundred thousand? Or four hundred thousand?"

The guess was really poor, so Cao Shujie changed his explanation: "Then guess how much money Uncle Hua can make this time?"

"How do I know?" Cheng Xiaolin didn't even bother to guess.

Cao Shujie finally told her the amount. After hearing this, Cheng Xiaolin said "Ah": "How do you earn so much?"

Cao Shujie looked at his wife and thought to himself: "Wife, are you crazy? Isn't more than 90,000 yuan money?"

…

At Cao Jianhua's house, after finishing his work and settling accounts with the people at the county slaughterhouse, Cao Jianhua came back after getting the money.

After washing away the smell of pig manure and changing into new clothes, Cao Jianhua happily called his wife over and took out a bag of money from his schoolbag: "Wife, look at it, look at it quickly!"

Gao Hong had heard about it from her son, but at this moment when she saw a bag of cash, she still felt a little excited and asked, "How much profit can there be?"

"The profit is not very high, more than 90,000 yuan, mainly because the price of the piglets we bought is too high, and the prices of pig feed, corn, and bean cakes are all rising," Cao Jianhua said.

But even so, Gao Hong was very happy to hear that he could still earn 90,000 yuan.

"Enough, enough." Gao Hong said

This wave of pigs takes almost four months to be slaughtered, and they can earn more than 20,000 yuan a month, which is more money than they make from opening a supermarket.

Gao Hong felt very satisfied.

Cao Jianhua thought about his hard work in the past few months. He couldn't say how he felt about earning an average of more than 20,000 yuan a month. He just felt that the risks of this thing were uncontrollable and there were too many unstable factors.

"Jianhua, have you made up your mind? Will you raise pigs in the future? Or cattle?" Gao Hong asked him.

When Cao Jianhua heard his wife's question, his first reaction was to refuse.

Although he made money this time, Cao Jianhua knew that this was not his ability at all.

There were several times when he wanted to give up, but in the end he went to chat with Cao Shujie, and Cao Shujie gave him more confidence, so he persisted.

At this time, after hearing his wife's question, Cao Jianhua was not so positive. He said calmly: "Let's talk about it later."

Gao Hong didn't think much, just smiled and nodded: "Okay, you can do it, I don't have any objections."

Speaking of the money, Gao Hong suggested: "Jianhua, I'll take 300,000 from here and deposit it. I won't care what you do with the rest of the money. Do you think it's okay?"

Cao Jianhua didn't refute. He also knew that the family must still leave some wealth, otherwise when the money is really needed and the family has no money, it would really be a disaster for the sky and the earth!

"Take the money and save it after the year."

Cao Jianhua actually wants to repay the interest-free loan he borrowed from the Qingshi Town Branch of Yiling Rural Commercial Bank in advance, but he still has some financial acumen and knows that there are not many opportunities to borrow "interest-free loans". There are still stable ones. The repayment ability, and the interest paid is not high, so there is really no need to withdraw the money and return the money to the bank.

While having dinner, Cao Jianhua didn't think about raising pigs or cattle after the new year.

But he said to his wife Gao Hong: "I will treat Shujie and his friends to dinner tomorrow. You can go to the Fuxing Hotel in town and order a table of delicious food."

"Don't worry about money." Cao Jianhua told his wife.

Gao Hong wondered: "Why do you invite Shujie to do tomorrow?"

"You silly bitch, Shujie came over to help me today, and there are nine other people. Otherwise, why do you think it was finished so quickly?" Cao Jianhua said.

Hearing this, Gao Hong nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I'll reserve a table for 400 yuan. If not, you can just go to a restaurant in town to eat."

For 400 yuan per table, it is a very high-quality set menu.

Cao Jianhua said: "It depends on the situation. It's best to let them deliver the food."

If he went to town, he felt that some people might not want to go.

…

When getting ready to go to bed at night, Cao Shujie vaguely heard someone outside shouting for something. He didn't pay attention at first, but after his wife listened for a while, she said to him: "Shujie, what do you hear shouting outside?"

"I didn't hear clearly, what's wrong?" Cao Shujie wondered.

Cheng Xiaolin shook her head. After listening attentively for a while, she said, "Why does it sound like Aunt Qinghua's voice to me?"

"Listen to see if it's her voice." Cheng Xiaolin frowned and said.

When Cao Shujie heard what she said, he said, "You are at home, I will go out and take a look."

"Well, please slow down." Cheng Xiaolin told him.

Cao Shujie put on his clothes again and was about to go out. As soon as he walked into the yard, he heard someone shouting from outside: "Tudou, Tudou, where are you?"

"Potato!"

"This name?" Cao Shujie couldn't connect it with any animal or person.

After thinking about it, he held Dahei's hand again, opened the door with a flashlight and went out.

As soon as he stood at the gate, he saw an old lady about the same age as his mother walking on the road outside. She was holding a flashlight in her hand and shouting as she walked.

"Tudou, where are you?" She yelled in a hoarse voice.

Cao Shujie hurried up and asked, "Auntie, what are you looking for?"

"Oh, it's Shujie. I'm looking for my dog. He hasn't come home for dinner since noon. I thought he went off to play somewhere again, but even now, he still hasn't come back."

"Shujie, tell me where it can go?" Aunt Qinghua said.

Her full name is Lian Qinghua.

When Cao Shujie heard what she said, he frowned: "Auntie, Potato may have gone somewhere to hide. It's so late. Why don't you go home and wait? Maybe it will find it by itself."

"Hey, I have already found Beitou from the south. I don't know where this piece of shit has gone. I'm really angry." Lian Qinghua muttered dejectedly, said goodbye to Cao Shujie, and walked south along the street. .
