The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Seeing his childhood friend about to leave, Cao Shujie remembered something and asked him to wait a moment. He then trotted to the large freezer in the kitchen and took out a bag of chopped venison and asked him to take it back.

"I raise a sika deer on the mountain. I killed it some time ago. You can take it back and try it. I'll kill another one in two days. You can come and get some fresh ones." This is what Cao Shujie said.

Cao Zhen didn't bother to be polite with him and just took it and left.

They don't have that many requirements.

After seeing Cao Zhen off, Cao Shujie started preparing New Year’s goods.

Considering that many people will come to visit after the New Year, Cao Shujie must make more preparations in advance.

But remembering what his childhood friend had just said about Bitcoin falling again, Cao Shujie laughed and decided to let Bitcoin fall as much as it wanted. He started selling it at over 7000 US dollars per coin, and raised the price to 2 US dollars per coin. He had already sold all the coins he had planned to sell, and he had no plans to sell the rest.

In addition, this time is different from the last time. Cao Shujie does not plan to buy back the 8400 coins that were sold.

When the price is higher in the future, he will continue to sell another batch. It is impossible for him to keep them and he will just continue to ship them out.

In Yiling City, Cao Huifang and Tong Jiayi were walking together in a shopping mall, and Cao Huifang was buying things for Tong Jiayi to take back to his hometown in a few days.

Some of the items were purchased by Tong Jiayi himself, and some were bought by Cao Huifang and wanted him to take them back.

"You really don't want to go back with me? My mother has been looking forward to letting you go?" Tong Jiayi asked her.

Cao Huifang smiled and said, "I won't go before the New Year. I will go again after the New Year."

"Okay, I'll pick you up when the time comes." Tong Jiayi finally got it.

His family lives in a small town under Hejian in Beihe Province, which is adjacent to Dongshan Province. This time, Wang Yuelan no longer mentioned the idea of ​​marrying far away.

The main reason is that the son-in-law works in her son's factory, so in the long run, he won't be too far away. Moreover, her daughter and son-in-law both bought houses in Yiling City. Although they are not nearby, they are not as far away as her daughter who was thousands of kilometers away from them when she worked in Shenzhen before.

If they really want to, it will be convenient for the old couple to drive to the city.

When Cao Huifang heard Tong Jiayi say that he would come to pick her up, she waved her hand and said, "No need, Sister Wu and I can go together when the time comes."

Sister Wu is Wu Shangying, her sister-in-law’s bodyguard.

Cao Huifang told her brother that she would go to Tong Jiayi's house after the New Year.

Cao Shujie was not a stubborn person, nor was he a traditionalist. He agreed to this matter, but he also asked Wu Shangying to go with her.

"Okay." Cao Huifang agreed.

Tong Jiayi was going to buy some meat to take home, but Cao Huifang said to him directly, "Brother Tong, don't buy any meat. My brother is going to slaughter another cow in two days. You can take some beef back then."

Tong Jiayi hesitated after hearing this, and felt that this was not a good idea.

But Cao Huifang told him: "This is what my brother said. Go to his house in a couple of days to get it."

Hearing Cao Huifang's words, Tong Jiayi felt relieved and nodded: "Then I'll go."

I have to get something.

In the following time, in addition to buying things for myself to take home, I also had to go to Cao Shujie again to get things before the New Year.

In the past, he went there in the name of reporting to his boss, but this time he went there on a personal basis, and the two of them were discussing what to buy.

Cao Huifang did not say that it was okay to go empty-handed. She was not ignorant either. She had a good discussion with Tong Jiayi, including things for grandfather, things for parents, and things for nephews and nieces.

"Don't take the wine. My brother said that he hasn't drunk the wine you bought for him last time. He also asked you to take a few boxes of fruit wine home when you leave." Cao Huifang reminded him.

These were the exact words her brother told her two days ago.

Cao Huifang knew in her heart that her brother did this all for her.

After they finished shopping and had a meal together, Tong Jiayi drove her back to Zizhuyuan Community. Then he drove away and returned to his own community.

Wang Yuelan started renovating the house she bought for her daughter in June. Seven months have passed so far and the house has been completed. Cao Huifang moved in from her good friend's place in December to live there on her own.

But when making videos, the two of them will still get together. Occasionally, when they have nothing to do, they will go shopping and have a meal together.

Knowing that Cao Huifang and Tong Jiayi are in love, Deng Miaoshan has also been considering her personal relationship issues recently.

But she has no idea yet.

As the Chinese New Year approached, Deng Miaoshan felt the pressure of getting married again. She called Cao Huifang and asked her to find time to get together.

……

"Dad, help me." Mengmeng held a few bottles in her hands and asked her father for help.

This is the winter vacation homework assigned by the teacher, asking them to create a new three-dimensional pattern using various bottles.

Mengmeng studied the bottle over and over again, but still couldn't figure out what to do with it. However, her mother Cheng Xiaolin gave her a suggestion and asked her to try making a rocket.

Mengmeng is quite good at hands-on work, but it’s still a little uncoordinated when she actually does it. When she used double-sided tape to stick the bottle together, it looked crooked no matter how she looked at it.

After she finished telling Cao Shujie, he called her over, and the father and daughter started working together with scissors.

When Cao Yirui saw his father and sister busy, he joined in and made things worse.

Cao Shujie didn't care, but Mengmeng was very angry and kept yelling at her brother. The two siblings looked like they were about to fight.

Cao Shujie thought that when you two are together, you will never behave yourself.

"Ruirui, can you beat your sister?" Cao Shujie called his son over and tried to reason with him earnestly.

But the boy didn't appreciate it. He turned his head away and didn't buy it at all.

He also shouted that he would fight back sooner or later.

"Try to say that again." Mengmeng pointed at his brother and said.

Cao Yirui still wanted to remain tough, but when he saw the fierce look in his sister's eyes, he was so scared that he dared not speak a word.

Finally he said, "Humph, what's the big deal? I can't leave."

After saying that, he turned around and left without paying any attention to his sister.

"I'll tell grandpa that you're bullying me, sister." Cao Yirui seemed to have found a backer.

Cao Shujie watched the whole scene and felt both amused and confused.

He also admitted that he was decisive at the critical moment (when he was about to be beaten) and knew when to give in, which is also worthy of praise.

Cheng Xiaolin and her mother-in-law are preparing New Year's goods together. This year they are preparing more than in previous years.

Wang Yuelan also kept telling her daughter-in-law to buy more things and go to Mengmeng's grandmother's house first.

"Mom, don't worry, we have them at home." Cheng Xiaolin said.

As the Spring Festival approaches, the Caojiazhuang market is particularly lively. The special market with the Spring Festival as the theme makes people feel the festive atmosphere as soon as they pass by. Cao Shujie and his wife also went to the market during this period and bought a lot of things.

Besides, he didn't need any, so it was easy to take some from home and send them to his mother-in-law's house.

When Wang Yuelan heard her daughter-in-law say this, she didn't say anything more.

Just remind her daughter-in-law not to forget it.

In the first few years, they always celebrated the New Year away from home. In addition, Cao Yirui was young at that time, so he basically did not go to Chengjiaopo before the New Year. But now they don’t go out again, and Cao Yirui is older, so he can’t not go anymore.

When Wang Yuelan saw her son, she specifically reminded him not to forget this matter.

"Okay, Mom, don't worry." said Cao Shujie.

The next day, Cao Shujie told Cao Jianjun and slaughtered two more cows. Some of his relatives at home wanted to give some as gifts, as did his own friends, and the employees at the cattle farm also wanted a share. Cao Shujie has always been generous in this regard.

This year is different from previous years. His future brother-in-law is coming home and he wants to bring some back too.

Since both parents agreed, Cao Shujie didn't put on airs. Moreover, Cao Shujie recognized Tong Jiayi's abilities and character. As for what would happen in the future, whether a couple might become enemies after a long time together, no one could tell.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, his sister Cao Huifang drove back the Magotan that he bought for her, and Tong Jiayi then drove a truck full of New Year's goods.

Wang Yuelan was very happy to see her future son-in-law coming, and asked him to take these things back home, but was stopped by Cao Huifang.

"Mom, these are what Brother Tong bought specially for Grandpa and you, as well as for Mengmeng and Ruirui." Cao Huifang pulled her mother aside and whispered.

"There are too many things." Wang Yuelan said.

However, when Tong Jiayi left home after dinner, Cao Shujie put more things for him.

There were more than 50 kilograms of beef and 20 kilograms of venison, which made Tong Jiayi feel embarrassed.

In addition, there were three boxes of preserved fruits produced in the factory, and Fan Hailiang hand-brewed fruit wine for Cao Shujie, including one box each of apple, red and yellow kiwi, and strawberry flavored wine.

He was also given a box of deer blood wine.

I didn’t include other things, but these things alone are worth a lot of money because they are not available anywhere else.

After seeing Tong Jiayi off, Cao Shujie drove his wife and children to Chengjiaopo to visit the old couple.

I put down the New Year's goods I had brought with me and left them some holiday money. We stayed at Chengjiaopo on the night of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

When I returned from Chengjiaopo the next morning, some people in Caojiazhuang had already started pasting Spring Festival couplets on their gates.

The trees on both sides of the main road from south to north in Caojiazhuang are hung with red lanterns and colorful light strips. Even before the Spring Festival, one can already feel the festive atmosphere.

Moreover, from time to time, bursts of cheerful music and the sound of gongs and drums could be heard from the courtyard of the Caojiazhuang Village Committee. Those were the people who were preparing the program, and they were still doing the final rehearsal without fear of the severe cold.

On New Year’s Eve and the first day of the new year, they will present a wonderful performance for the villagers.

At this moment, not only the people of Caojiazhuang, but also the people of several surrounding villages are waiting patiently.

They envied the changes in Caojiazhuang, but also felt sad about the unchanging state of their own village.

As for the ordinary people of Caojiazhuang, they truly feel that their lives are getting better day by day, and they are grateful from the bottom of their hearts to the person who has brought changes to their entire village.

The village had never organized its own program before. This year, in order to let the people feel the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival, the Caojiazhuang Village Committee paid a high price to invite a performance team from the county.

As soon as they stopped the car, Wang Yuelan heard the noise outside and ran out of the house. Seeing them coming back, Wang Yuelan said, "Why are you back so soon? Why don't you stay there for another day? You can come back tomorrow."

"Mom, it's nothing. We've finished everything we need to do. It would be a nuisance if we stay over there. Let's come back and get ready." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Having said that, Wang Yuelan still felt that since she had finally had the chance to go back, she should spend more time with the old man.

If you put yourself in their shoes, the older they get, the more they can feel that people need more companionship when they are old.

"Grandma, hug me." Cao Yirui ran towards his grandmother and opened his arms for her to hug him.

Wang Yuelan bent down and picked him up, saying to her grandson: "Did you eat too much at your grandma's house last night? How come you are so heavy? I can hardly hold you."

"Hehe!" Cao Yirui laughed and told his grandmother what he was eating.

Seeing the serious look of the little guy, Wang Yuelan still praised: "Isn't the food your grandma cooks more delicious?"

"My mother is really good at talking." Cao Shujie said to his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin also had a bright smile on her face. While watching her mother-in-law helping her coax her son, she listened to what her husband said and responded: "That's right, Mom has always been like this. You are not as stubborn as a donkey."

Before I even entered the house, Cao Jianguo called out, "Shujie, come in quickly when you guys come back. It's cold outside. Don't let Linlin and the two kids get cold."

When Cao Shujie heard what his father said, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that he had no human rights at all in this family.

……

In a township under Hejian, Beihe Province, Tong Jiayi drove back here from Yiling City with the New Year's goods he had bought. It was already the afternoon of the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.

On the way, he met many cars going back. When entering the village, Tong Jiayi met his old classmates. However, he was in a hurry to go home and did not stop to chat for more. He wanted to put down his things and then go to play with them.

When he arrived at the door of his home and looked at the somewhat old house, Tong Jiayi's memories were instantly brought back to his childhood.

He was born and raised here, and after graduation he stayed in Beijing to work.

He worked at the Beijing Agricultural Science Research Institute and was only paid a few hundred thousand yuan a year at the beginning. After deducting insurance and provident fund expenses, the actual salary he received was not very high.

In the next two years, his salary increased every year, and sometimes he would get more bonuses after completing projects. When he was poached by Xuemeng Food Factory, he was earning more than 20 yuan a year, but this amount of money was not much in Beijing.

After all, rent and daily expenses are the big expenses.

Tong Jiayi has always wanted to help renovate his family's house after he makes some money, but he was unable to do so before.

Now I finally have this ability.

He was still thinking about the next arrangements when the dog at home started barking. Then a woman's voice came: "Who is it?"

"Mom, it's me." Tong Jiayi responded. The voice was so familiar that he didn't even think of anyone else.

Not long after, a woman who looked old came out of the house. She was Tong Jiayi's mother, Zheng Suying, a woman who was actually less than 60 years old but looked like a 70-year-old.

The skin on his face was tanned and rough from working in the fields for many years.

But when she saw her son come back, Zheng Suying showed a happy smile on her face.

She even looked back and said, "Jiayi, didn't you say you were dating someone? Your boyfriend didn't come?"

When Zheng Suying learned about this matter from her son on the phone, she has been thinking about it ever since and especially wanted to meet her daughter-in-law as soon as possible.

"Mom, Fangfang will come over after the New Year, so I came back by myself first." Tong Jiayi said helplessly.

"It's after the New Year. Which day of the first lunar month should you come? I have to tell your dad that you must not go out to visit relatives during that time." Zheng Suying asked anxiously. (End of this chapter)
