The leisurely life of a reborn dad

"Mengmeng, you're looking for a beating." Cheng Xiaolin instinctively reached out and grabbed the back collar of her daughter's clothes. Mengmeng rushed quickly and was suddenly caught by her mother. She moved her legs forward with inertia, and her whole body was directly borrowed I started to swing on my mother’s arm and had a lot of fun.

The little kid kept laughing "haha", which made the adults laugh.

When Cheng Xiaolin saw her daughter's behavior, she couldn't laugh or cry. She thought to herself: "Why did I give birth to such a thing? When will she be like other normal children? It's amazing!"

After the sound of firecrackers, when the smoke and dust dissipated with the wind, Cao Zhenggang said: "Jianguo, Shujie, are we going to start work now?"

"Uncle Zhenggang, do it!" Cao Jianguo said.

When Cao Zhengguo heard what he said, he immediately called for an excavator to knock down the wall. The crawlers pressed the collapsed wall inward, and then knocked the house sideways. The action was very fast and efficient.

Just these tasks, if done manually, would take several days to complete.

When walls and houses were knocked down, dust filled the sky.

After Wang Yuelan saw it, she quickly said to her daughter-in-law: "Linlin, there is too much dust here. Please take Mengmeng home quickly."

"Mom, then I'll go home and cook." Cheng Xiaolin didn't show any pretense.

She really wanted her mother-in-law to take her daughter back, but it was okay for a short time, but over time, her mother-in-law couldn't control her cuteness at all.

Today is the first day of work. According to the rules in this area, the masters who work are required to eat a meal of butchered vegetables.

Nowadays, it is not the New Year or the festival, it is impossible to kill a pig to entertain people, but Cao Shujie still drove to the town and bought more than 50 kilograms of pork and brought it back.

After his mother Wang Yuelan found out, she complained a lot about him and said he spent money recklessly.

But Cao Shujie felt that it was only a few dollars, and since he was in charge of food, he had to ensure that everyone had enough to eat. It would make people feel uncomfortable if they were neither above nor below.

Only when you have enough food and drink can you work more attentively.

At the same time, when 10,000 firecrackers sounded, most of the people in Caojiazhuang knew that Cao Jianguo's eldest son, who couldn't survive outside, was going to spend more than 200,000 to build a two-story building. Fine decoration, heating, indoor showers and toilets are also required. Once completed, it is no worse than the buildings in the city.

The area is large enough and comfortable to live in.

At this moment, a group of people who had been discussing this matter with great interest before consciously shut up.

They are not stupid. How many families in Caojiazhuang would spend more than 200,000 yuan to build a small villa?

So far, there is none in Caojiazhuang!

Can people who can't make it out outside spend more than 200,000 yuan to build a house in their hometown?

Logically speaking, this obviously doesn't make sense.

After Wang Yuelan watched here for a while, she thought that her daughter-in-law would be busy cooking alone at home and taking care of her granddaughter, so she said to her husband Cao Jianguo: "Lao Cao, you and Shujie are here. Watch, I'll go back and help Linlin cook."

"Okay, you can go and do your work, we can just watch from here." Cao Jianguo said.

…

When Wang Yuelan returned home, she saw her daughter-in-law cutting meat, next to a pot of cabbage and tofu that had been cut.

There is also vermicelli soaked in another red enamel basin, which is the standard way to cook pig meat in the countryside.

"Linlin, look at Mengmeng and give me the knife." Wang Yuelan went to wash her hands and was about to fight for the knife with her daughter-in-law.

But Cheng Xiaolin didn't agree: "Mom, I'm almost done cutting it. You should watch Mengmeng. I'll finish it in a while."

By this time, she had cut half of the pot of meat, which was estimated to be at least four or five kilograms.

Cao Shujie was willing to spend money, and Cao Zhenggang and the other workers had a delicious meal at noon.

In addition to the delicious treats, Cao Shujie also gave 9 people, including Cao Zhenggang, two boxes of cigarettes worth 10 yuan each.

This time, even Cao Zhenggang was embarrassed. He had taken people to so many places, and had also been to the city to build buildings with a large construction team, but no one was as generous as Cao Shujie when it came to taking care of food.

In the afternoon, everyone else went to work, and Cao Zhenggang called Cao Shujie aside: "Shujie, you don't need to put so much meat in your cooking in the future."

He whispered to Cao Shujie: "Put more lard in the pot and less meat, you can save a lot of money."

"Haha, Grandpa Zhenggang, just let your stomachs go and eat as much as you want. It's hard to say anything else. There's enough meat and vegetables." Cao Shujie said.

But he also lamented that the people in his hometown are still so simple!

…

The next day, the construction waste dumping of the old house went into the regular process, and Cao Shujie stopped coming. He took his wife and daughter to the mountains behind to see the fruit trees.

After entering late March, the temperature has stabilized above 15 degrees, and the warm sunshine is shining on the body, which is very comfortable.

It also accelerates the growth and flowering of fruit trees.

Just like the kiwis and apples grown in Cao Shujie's orchard, they usually begin to bloom in April.

Cao Shujie and his family of three were walking slowly along a trail. In the terraced fields on both sides of the road, kiwi and apple trees were lush and green, which was mesmerizing.

"Dad, let me down." When Mengmeng saw so many fruit trees, she didn't want to be held by her father.

Cao Shujie bent down and put his daughter down, and said to her: "Mengmeng, don't run around, be careful not to fall."

But as soon as he finished speaking, the moment he let go of his hand, Mengmeng took advantage of her father not paying attention and ran forward.

But the terraced fields on the mountain are not flat cement roads. Many places are filled with small undulating hills. Mengmeng, an impatient child, will not pay attention to what is under his feet at all. The pimple blocked it.

"Snapped!"

Mengmeng flew forward and finally fell firmly to the ground.

Cao Shujie was frightened when he saw it.

Cheng Xiaolin was walking slowly behind, but when she saw her daughter falling, she became nervous and ran over with long strides.

But Mengmeng lay motionless on the ground, neither crying nor fussing, which frightened them both.

"Is it possible that I fell silly?" the couple was still thinking.

"Mengmeng, are you okay?" Cao Shujie asked anxiously.

The next moment, Cao Shujie bent down and picked up his daughter from the ground. Cheng Xiaolin quickly stood in front of her daughter and saw that Mengmeng's face was covered with dirt, and she was looking at her with wide eyes, but you are here There is absolutely no sign of tears or tears on Zhang Xiaozhang's face.

"Bah! Bah! Bah!" Mengmeng finally reacted.

She was like a fine child, not crying at all.

"Mengmeng, you naughty kid, you scared mom just now." Cheng Xiaolin breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her daughter was fine.

"Mom, it's fun." Mengmeng said.

After she finished speaking, she kept staring at the ground, with joy and excitement on her face, as if she was still thinking of trying to throw it again.

…

Mengmeng was fine, so Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin didn't care about her, but they didn't dare to let Mengmeng walk here by herself.

As they continued walking back, each of them held Mengmeng's hand and walked into the orchard.

During this period, Cao Shujie would stop and carefully observe the fruit trees around him every once in a while.

From leaves to flower bones to branches, sometimes he would dig out the soil at the roots of fruit trees with his hands to see the condition of the roots.

At first, the expression on his face was quite relaxed, but later it became a little serious.

Cheng Xiaolin also saw that something was wrong with the expression on her husband's face and asked him: "Husband, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"There are no major problems, but a lot of minor problems. Overall, this fruit tree is a bit malnourished..." Cao Shujie said clearly.

Cheng Xiaolin was even more nervous. This would be one of the main sources of income for their family in the future. If something went wrong, it would be fatal.

The next moment, Cheng Xiaolin heard her husband say: "Let's put some fertilizer on for now."

"But it would be better if we could prepare nutrient solution."

Cheng Xiaolin was confused, but she knew what her husband was talking about about the 'nutrient solution'. Because of this, she was curious: "Husband, are you talking about the nutrient solution project you are planning to establish?"

Seeing her husband nodding, she became even more curious: "I remember that this project you mentioned was just established not long ago. How did you research it so quickly?"

"Hehe!" Cao Shujie smiled but said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Cheng Xiaolin didn't bother to ask him: "Then why don't you hurry up and try it out to see if you can add some nutrition to these fruit trees?"

"It must be possible, wife. When I get back later, I will go to the county town and buy some ingredients. Will you come with me?" Cao Shujie asked her.

Before Cheng Xiaolin could say anything, Mengmeng, who was circling her mother, shouted: "I'm going, I'm going."

She was excited.
