The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Before they knew it, it was the sixth day of the New Year. Early in the morning, Wang Yuelan started loading things into the car for her daughter.

Today Cao Huifang is going to Tong Jiayi's house. This was agreed upon before the New Year. Tong Jiayi came to their house to pay New Year's greetings, and Cao Huifang will go there after the New Year.

Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo, the old couple, are very satisfied with Tong Jiayi, their future son-in-law, and can't find any other faults with him.

From their point of view, they also consider settling their marriage as soon as possible.

The things they brought over were prepared by the old couple, and they didn't take anything like meat. Wang Yuelan kept reminding her daughter to stay calm after she went there and not to lose her temper.

When Cao Huifang heard what her mother said, she felt helpless and always felt that her mother still treated her as a child.

I saw my daughter-in-law's bodyguard Wu Shangying sitting in the driver's seat, her daughter Cao Huifang sitting in the passenger seat, and driving away in her Magotan.

Wang Yuelan was still a little uneasy, and Cao Jianguo also felt a little lost.

In the past, he was worried that his daughter would not be able to get married, but now he always feels that his daughter may get married and leave this home at any time. At this time, Cao Jianguo begins to worry again.

It’s hard to explain how he felt, but Cao Jianguo knew that this day would come.

Cao Shujie and his wife Cheng Xiaolin were at home and did not come out to see them off. To Cao Shujie, these things were already a done deal and there was no way he could stop them.

Besides, he was quite satisfied with Tong Jiayi.

At this time, Cao Shujie could only wish his sister a better life in the future.

……

"Dad, is my aunt getting married soon?"

"Dad, will my aunt have a baby after she gets married?"

"Dad, how can my aunt give birth to a baby?"

"Will Auntie still play with me in the future?"

"Dad, why don't you say anything?"

Meng Meng was asking a million questions, which annoyed Cao Shujie: "Why don't you ask your aunt?"

Cheng Xiaolin took her daughter downstairs.

……

The journey from Caojiazhuang to Hejian is more than 340 kilometers long. If all goes smoothly, it will take about 4 hours to get there.

On the way, Cao Huifang and Wu Shangying were talking. Cao Huifang was very grateful to Wu Shangying for accompanying him to Hejian.

I also know that this is because her brother is worried.

As for her sister-in-law's bodyguard, Cao Huifang had also seen her kung fu skills. She was shocked at the time. She didn't expect that a chopstick in Wu Shangying's hand could penetrate thin iron sheet.

With this power, it would be very easy for a chopstick to penetrate into the human body, and there is no need to think about the consequences.

Because of this, Cao Huifang was quite curious about how she did it?
But Wu Shangying didn't say anything, so Cao Huifang didn't ask any more questions.

Halfway through the journey, Tong Jiayi called Cao Huifang and asked her where she was.

After Cao Huifang looked at the road signs and told him a place name, Tong Jiayi also reminded her to be careful on the road.

After having breakfast at home in the morning, they set off at 8 o'clock. It was already 11 o'clock in the morning when they arrived in Hejian. They then drove for more than half an hour from Hejian City to the village where Tong Jiayi's home was.

Finally, she parked the car in front of Tong Jiayi's house. When she saw Tong Jiayi standing at the door waiting for her, Cao Huifang couldn't help but smile.

However, when she saw a middle-aged woman and another young woman who was much older than Tong Jiayi standing next to him, she became nervous again.

She knew Tong Jiayi's mother, but had never met Tong Jiayi's sister.

"That should be his sister, right?"

While Cao Huifang was thinking about this question, Wu Shangying had already opened the car door, and Cao Huifang also got out from the passenger side.

When Tong Jiayi saw her getting out, he quickly went around the front of the car to greet her. Zheng Suying and Tong Qingmei, mother and daughter, first saw Wu Shangying coming out of the driver's seat, and then saw her son (brother) going to the passenger seat to greet her, so they followed over.

Although Cao Huifang had already video chatted with Zheng Suying via WeChat once before, when they actually met, both of them still felt a little awkward and didn't know how to start the conversation.

This was the first time that Cao Huifang and Tong Qingmei met. Fortunately, Tong Jiayi introduced them to each other. After the initial awkwardness, Zheng Suying enthusiastically shook the hand of her future daughter-in-law and let her go home first.

They were also confused about Wu Shangying who was driving. Who was this person?

Then they heard Cao Huifang introduce that it was her sister Wu. Zheng Suying and the others had many questions in their minds, but they did not neglect Wu Shangying.

Seeing Wu Shangying opening the trunk and taking things out, Zheng Suying kept wondering why he was taking so many things.
Tong Qingmei was observing her brother's wife at this time.

It was the first time that she and Cao Huifang met each other. It was hard to say what kind of feeling there was between them, but they were not to the point of intimidating each other as soon as they met.

Tong Qingmei was particularly enthusiastic about Cao Huifang's arrival. She hoped that her brother would find a suitable partner to marry as soon as possible and let her parents put their minds at ease. So how could she chase away the "future sister-in-law" who came to visit?

Not long after, Tong Zhanxin and Du Xuexing, who were at home, heard the noise outside and came out.

Tong Jiayi's family attached great importance to Cao Huifang's arrival.

The food had been prepared long ago, and they had also calculated the time for Cao Huifang to arrive. Not long after Cao Huifang arrived, they welcomed her to the table.

Wu Shangying sat down with him.

As Cheng Xiaolin's bodyguard, Wu Shangying was not used to sitting at the table with others, but Tong Jiayi's family did not treat her as an outsider. In addition, Cao Huifang never introduced Wu Shangying's identity as a "bodyguard" from beginning to end. During the meal, Tong Jiayi's parents, sister and brother-in-law also treated Wu Shangying as Cao Huifang's family member.

Wu Shangying and Cao Huifang were women, so they stopped drinking. Tong Jiayi's sister Tong Qingmei took out the juice that she had prepared in advance.

Cao Huifang came here, naturally with the goal of getting married in the end.

After the meal was almost over, Zheng Suying also expressed her desire to meet Cao Huifang's parents.

Cao Huifang did not express her opinion directly, but said that she would talk to her parents when she returned.

Tong Jiayi didn't dare to be so rash as to set a time for the parents of both parties to meet, because his boss Cao Shujie was involved. Tong Jiayi couldn't think that he could act recklessly and without observing any rules just because Cao Shujie would immediately become his brother-in-law.

On the contrary, the more this time came, the more cautious Tong Jiayi became and he would definitely seek his boss's opinion in advance.

Zheng Suying was a little suspicious of her son's behavior. She always felt that her son was still keeping a certain distance from their desire to meet with their in-laws.

She didn't understand what was going on, but Zheng Suying didn't express any anxiety.

Originally, Zheng Suying thought that her son and Cao Huifang were already living together. After all, there were many families in their village who brought their wives back with them. Although they had not held a wedding yet, they all lived together.

As people of the new era, they did not have a traditional and stubborn perspective, but Cao Huifang came with Wu Shangying. After the two of them had their meal and chatted for a while, they also expressed their intention to go back in the afternoon.

Zheng Suying was quite surprised when she learned about this, but when she saw that her son was not surprised, Zheng Suying couldn't help but have other thoughts in her mind.

Could it be that her son and the other person are still "pretending to be a couple" as the neighbors said?
But before Cao Huifang left, she said to Zheng Suying: "Auntie, I will tell my parents when I get back. Then you can pick a date to come over to our place and spend a few days."

Hearing what Cao Huifang said, Zheng Suying suddenly felt a little ashamed and felt that her own thoughts were very dirty.

……

Watching Wu Shangying and Cao Huifang hurry over and leave in the afternoon, Tong Qingmei squinted her eyes and watched her future sister-in-law's car disappear from her sight. She turned around and asked her brother: "Jiayi, tell me honestly what your partner's family does?"

"Her brother grows an orchard and raises cattle." Tong Jiayi repeated what he had said to his parents before.

When she heard her brother say that her future sister-in-law's family had hundreds of acres of orchards and raised more than 2000 beef cattle and more than 2000 cows, it was exactly the same as what her mother had told him before.

But Tong Qingmei felt that this matter was not that simple: "That's all?"

When Tong Qingmei saw her brother nod, she seemed to be talking to herself: "Why do I feel that the woman surnamed Wu is her driver?"

Tong Qingmei observed for a long time and found that Wu Shangying was always following Cao Huifang, almost inseparable from her.

In Tong Qingmei's opinion, this is very abnormal.

Tong Jiayi looked at his sister in surprise, thinking that she was very observant, but he did not say anything more about the issue.

When Zheng Suying heard her daughter's question, she thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the same as what her daughter said.

But she didn't think much about it at the time.

But Tong Qingmei kept chasing her brother, wanting to find out what was going on. Tong Qingmei subconsciously felt that her brother must be hiding something.

This time Tong Qingmei's intuition was really accurate. Tong Jiayi was annoyed by his sister, and thinking that his parents and Cao Huifang's parents were about to meet, he did not hide it this time and told it out.

"Her brother is my boss." Tong Jiayi said.

This sentence left Zheng Suying and Tong Zhanxin, who was drinking tea, dumbfounded.

The old couple never expected this result.

Even Du Xuexing, who was drinking tea with his father-in-law, had a dazed expression on his face and looked at his brother-in-law Tong Jiayi in disbelief.

After Zheng Suying came to her senses, she was very anxious and asked him, "Jiayi, that's not right. Didn't you say that her brother's family raised cattle and planted orchards? Didn't you go to a new laboratory? Did you raise cattle for them? That doesn't mean you can get 100 million a year, right?"

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't make sense.

Tong Jiayi scratched his head, thinking about how to better explain this matter to his family.

At this time, Tong Jiayi thought that if he had been honest from the beginning, there wouldn’t be so many problems and he wouldn’t have to worry so much?
In the end, Tong Jiayi explained the situation from the beginning.

This would prevent any misunderstandings from arising when his parents, Cao Huifang's parents, and his boss Cao Shujie really meet.

When Tong Jiayi was telling these stories, Zheng Suying, Tong Zhanxin, Tong Qingmei and others felt that it was even more outrageous than watching TV dramas.

"Jiayi, do you mean that the one who spent 100 million to poach you was Fangfang's brother?" asked his brother-in-law Du Xuexing.

Tong Jiayi nodded and said straightforwardly, "My boss did grow orchards and raise cattle at first, but after he made a fortune, he opened a fruit deep processing factory in the town. Last year, he started to build a laboratory. Our main research direction is nutrient solution for crops."

"Are you talking about the advertisement that keeps playing on TV? Is that your product?" Zheng Suying asked.

As a down-to-earth farmer, Zheng Suying is more concerned about this aspect.

Before her son confessed, she really didn't know that was the product he was researching.

When she saw her son nod in acknowledgment, Zheng Suying felt that the amount of information today was too much and she could hardly accept it.

"So is your relationship with Fangfang real? Or is it fake? Does your boss agree?" Zheng Suying was more concerned about this.

If the relationship between her son and the other party was a farce, Zheng Suying felt that it would be better to let her son come back and find a new job, and then honestly find a partner to get married and start a family.

They are not greedy for 100 million a year.

Who knows how much injustice my son has suffered in there!
Tong Jiayi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and quickly clarified to his mother that this income had nothing to do with the relationship between him and Cao Huifang.

"Mom, these are two different things." Tong Jiayi said with certainty.

But Zheng Suying was still very confused, and what happened today made it impossible for her to calm down in a short time.

Even Zheng Suying was not in a hurry to meet with her in-laws to discuss the marriage of her two children.

She had only one thought in her mind: "The family conditions of her future daughter-in-law are so good, is it really suitable for her son to be with her? Will her son really be happy in the future?"

Zheng Suying has not reached the point where she doesn't care whether her son is happy or not just for the sake of getting him married.

Zheng Suying couldn't sleep tonight.

Not to mention her, even Tong Zhanxin, Tong Qingmei and Du Xuexing were not so optimistic about Tong Jiayi's relationship at this moment.

They felt that this didn't make sense. They were just an ordinary family. How could Tong Jiayi be dating someone with such good conditions?
……

Wu Shangying and Cao Huifang left Tong Jiayi's home at around 3 pm. After getting on the highway, everything went smoothly at first. However, before they left Beihe Province, they encountered a traffic accident and were stuck in traffic for more than two hours.

After the expressway was opened, it was getting dark. Cao Huifang was not in a hurry to go home as they had not had a good rest today. So they got off the nearest expressway exit and found a hotel to stay in.

Cao Huifang called her mother Wang Yuelan on WeChat for a video chat and explained the situation to her, especially what happened at Tong Jiayi's home this afternoon.

This is also what her mother has always hoped for. When Wang Yuelan heard her daughter say that Tong Jiayi's parents also wanted to meet them, she definitely agreed.

And she told her daughter to ask the other party to choose an auspicious day.

"Mom, Brother Tong is still at home. I'll call him and let him know later." Cao Huifang said.

On the other side, Cheng Xiaolin also received a call from Wu Shangying. After listening to Wu Shangying's report on today's events, she also specifically mentioned the accident that occurred on the highway on the way back this afternoon, and the fact that they were now stranded in Beihe Province and had not returned yet.

Cheng Xiaolin also reminded them to be careful.

At this time, Cheng Xiaolin was somewhat relieved. If her sister-in-law had gone alone, it would have been a bit troublesome.

Wu Shangying and Cao Huifang continued their journey after breakfast the next morning and did not return to Caojiazhuang until noon.

When he saw his sister coming back, Cao Shujie joked why she didn't come back with Tong Jiayi.

"Brother, I'm not married yet."

"I know, I know. Will you come back together after you get married?" Cao Shujie continued.

Cao Huifang couldn't stand her brother so much that she didn't even want to take the things in the car and prepared to go home.

Cao Shujie also asked her if she still wanted the residential land in the village.

"Yes, do you want to divide the housing land now?" Cao Huifang stopped walking home, turned around and asked her brother.

She has always been obsessed with the homestead in Caojiazhuang.

Moreover, Cao Huifang didn’t intend to move her household registration out after getting married.

Besides, she and Tong Jiayi had discussed that they would definitely spend more time in Yiling City in the future, so it would be a stupid move to transfer the household registration of Caojiazhuang to Yiling City.

Cao Shujie told his sister that the village was planning to reallocate a batch of residential land and was in the process of applying for it.

It is said to be an application report, but in fact it is just a facade.

Everybody knows what happened. The town knows that it was Cao Shujie who proposed it, so they won't deliberately hold it up and not approve it.

There's no way around it, Cao Shujie just has a lot of face.

"Okay, I'll leave one for you then." Cao Shujie agreed readily.

This was one of the few times he misappropriated his personal rights, but Cao Shujie didn't think it was wrong.

No matter who talks about this, Cao Shujie is just like this.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Xuemeng Food Factory opened as normal.

Cao Shujie also ended this year's Spring Festival holiday and came to the factory. As in previous years, he first distributed Spring Festival red envelopes to all employees.

This is also the scene that all employees in the factory are looking forward to.

For them, no matter how much money the boss offers them, they will be happy, mainly for the atmosphere.

But when they received the red envelope and opened it to see the 500 yuan inside, everyone was so happy that they didn't know what to do.

The boss is generous, this is the consensus of everyone in the factory.

If others say that they will share the profits with all employees, they will definitely not believe it.

But if this was said by Cao Shujie, the employees in the factory all believed that Cao Shujie had always done so.

However, after receiving the bonus envelope for the start of work, another email was sent to various departments.

It was sent from the General Manager's Office, notifying all departments to hold a company-wide staff meeting on the tenth day of the first lunar month. At the meeting, Cao Shujie will share with everyone in the company the achievements made by Xuemeng Food Factory last year and the challenges it faces this year.

This is also what most people in the company are looking forward to. They only know that the company had good business in the first half of last year and joined export trade in the second half.

According to common sense, as long as we maintain stable development, the future will not be too bad.

However, with the trade war launched across the ocean at the beginning of this year, the domestic economic situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and their factory's shipments were also affected compared to last year, and everyone was feeling uneasy.

I don't even know where to go.

At this time, everyone needs a shot of confidence. They want to hear about the company’s brilliant achievements last year. (End of this chapter)
