The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

"Our mom is really conflicted now. She used to urge Fangfang to find a partner as soon as possible, but when it comes to getting engaged, she is reluctant to let go." Cheng Xiaolin told her husband.

Cao Shujie finally said, "Wife, don't talk about our mom. I'm thinking that when Mengmeng gets married in the future, I won't be able to let her go."

Cheng Xiaolin: "..."

For a moment, Cheng Xiaolin was silent.

If you think about it carefully, it is really the case.

"Go to bed early today, pack up tomorrow and go to the city," said Cheng Xiaolin.

She told Cao Shujie, "Shujie, you take grandpa and uncle with you tomorrow, and I will drive with our dad, mom, Mengmeng, and Ruirui."

"Okay." Cao Shujie nodded and agreed.

Nothing happened all night.

The next morning, after getting up early and having breakfast at home, Cao Shujie and his father packed their things together and put them in the car.

Afterwards, Cao Shujie asked Wang Yueqiang to drive. He carried his grandfather into the car, went to the south to pick up his uncle Cao Jianlin, and went directly to Yiling City.

On the way there, Uncle Cao Jianlin asked him, "Shujie, have you told your eldest and second brothers about Fangfang's engagement?"

"Uncle, don't worry. I have definitely told you about Fangfang's engagement."

Cao Zhenghu was grinning, and he even shouted: "I never thought I would see Fangfang getting engaged."

Cao Shujie heard this from behind and said, "Grandpa, you are talking nonsense. You can still see my sister get married and Fangfang give birth to a child."

Cao Jianlin also followed him and said, "Dad, with your physique, you can still see Yichuan get married."

Cao Yichuan is the eldest grandson of Cao Jianlin and the son of his eldest brother Cao Shubin.

He is the eldest of the next generation of the Cao family, and he will take the college entrance examination this year.

Cao Shujie thought about this and thought that when he met his elder brother, he would have to ask him about his nephew's grades.
On the other side, Cheng Xiaolin also drove a car and brought her parents-in-law, daughter and son to the city.

After arriving, they first went to the house that Zizhuyuan bought for Cao Huifang.

At this time, Cao Huifang was already waiting downstairs.

Seeing them coming, Cao Huifang was very happy. She immediately ran to her grandfather, held his hand, and shouted with a smile: "Grandpa!"

"Look at how old you are, but you are still like a child." Cao Zhenghu held her hand with his other hand and asked her how her preparations were going.

"Grandpa, everything is ready, let's go upstairs first."

"Let's go." Cao Zhenghu responded.

When I came upstairs, the house was very clean. Deng Miaoshan had been helping.

Deng Miaoshan felt a little embarrassed when she saw her best friend’s family coming over.

But Cheng Xiaolin recognized her, and Wang Yuelan also knew her: "Shanshan, Huifang is such a stinky girl, I have to trouble you to take care of her."

"Auntie, it's okay. We have a good relationship and live close to each other. If Fangfang gets married and moves away, it will be all in vain." Deng Miaoshan said.

She really thought about this question.

Cao Huifang retorted: "Who said I want to move away? I still feel comfortable living here."

Wang Yuelan waved her hand: "It doesn't matter where you live. Shanshan will take care of you here, so we can rest assured."

This is the first time that Cao Shujie has come to his sister's house. The last time they bought the house, his mother and his wife came together. Although Cao Tiemin arranged for someone to decorate the house, Cao Shujie has never come to see it.

At this moment, looking at the simple pastoral style of the room, it looks good overall.

"Jiayi didn't come?" Cao Shujie asked his sister.

Cao Huifang told him that she came over in the morning to pick up her family.

Tong Jiayi's family members are also coming here today, and will come here tomorrow, and then go to the hotel together.

Cao Shujie nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

After staying with his sister for a while, Cao Shujie told his parents that he was going to go downstairs and take a look at a hotel nearby and book a few rooms.

"Dad, I'll go with you." Mengmeng said.

She felt that it was boring upstairs and it would be more fun at home.

When Cao Yirui heard that his sister and father were going downstairs, he insisted on following them, thinking that it was not fun at all here.

Cheng Xiaolin said to him, "Let them follow you. Keep an eye on them and make sure they don't run around."

It’s different here than at home, there are more cars outside.

In Caojiazhuang, although there are a lot of cars now, there are people on duty in the village. After entering the village, those people do not drive fast, and everyone has time to react.

But here many people are in a hurry and rush forward with their heads covered. In order to grab that one or two seconds of red light, many people will even step on the accelerator and rush forward during the 3 seconds of the yellow light.

There are too many such phenomena, and accidents are likely to happen at this time.

Cao Shujie made an OK gesture to his wife, then took the siblings downstairs and walked around.

"Dad, where do we book a room?" Mengmeng looked up and asked her father.

Cao Shujie saw a hotel across from his sister's neighborhood and pointed at it and said, "Let's go over there."

Mainly because it’s close and convenient.

And the decoration of the hotel is also good.

Wang Yueqiang followed behind and walked forward.

After booking 5 rooms, Cao Shujie was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He called his eldest and second brothers to ask them whether they would come today or tomorrow.

Hearing his elder brother say that he was on the way, Cao Shujie turned around and booked three more rooms.

"Are uncle and second uncle coming?" Mengmeng asked her father.

Cao Shujie told her that they were already on the way.

Cao Yirui couldn't sit still and wanted to have fun wherever he was. After booking the room, he asked his father if it was possible for him to go somewhere else to play.
"Where do you want to go?" Cao Shujie asked him.

The problem is that Cao Yirui has only been to the city a few times, and he can't remember where to go for fun.

Cao Shujie looked around and thought about taking his son and daughter for a walk around the area to see if there was anything fun to do.

Before he had walked far, he heard someone calling him from behind. He turned around and saw that it was Cao Zhen.

"Why are you here?" Cao Shujie wondered.

Cao Zheng asked him back: "I haven't asked you yet, why are you here?"

"My sister is getting engaged tomorrow, and I came over to see her today." Cao Shujie did not hide it from him.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Cao Zhen punched him: "You didn't even tell me about our sister's engagement, it's such a big thing, do you deserve a beating?"

When Wang Yueqiang first saw his boss talking to the other person, he knew they knew each other and was not on guard.

But the next moment he saw his boss being beaten. He felt very derelict in his duty and ran over from behind, about to take action, but was stopped in time by Cao Shujie.

With Cao Zhen's weak body, Wang Yueqiang could break his bones with one punch. "I've already told you, and it's not a marriage. If she were to get married, I would definitely tell you," Cao Shujie said.

"You are right this time. By the way, which community does our sister live in?" Cao Zhen really didn't know.

"Zizhuyuan, the residential area opposite." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Zhen was even more speechless: "She lives in the same neighborhood as me. When did she move here? Why haven't I seen her before?"

Even Cao Shujie was speechless. He didn't expect such a coincidence.

But then again, that's what it's like living in a residential complex. Everyone is busy with their own things and has different schedules, so it's hard to run into each other.

"She came here in July last year. Tiemin renovated the house and she just moved in at the end of the year. Besides, she usually just plays videos at home and never goes out. She's a stay-at-home girl." Cao Shujie said.

Hearing his buddy say this, Cao Zhen said, "I thought so."

Cao Shujie rolled his eyes: "Didn't I know you live here too? If I had known earlier, I would have called you first."

"You never asked. Every time you come to the city, you go back home or stay in a hotel. I asked you to stay at my house, but you didn't come. Now you blame me." Cao Zhen said to him.

The two were chatting when Cao Shujie's cell phone rang. It was his wife calling. Cao Shujie signaled to Cao Zhen and answered the call first.

At this time, Cao Zhen squatted down and started chatting with Mengmeng and Cao Yiru, the brother and sister.

After Cao Shujie finished the call, he said to Cao Zhen: "I have to go back. Let's talk another day."

"What's wrong?" Cao Zhen asked him.

Cao Shujie waved his hand: "Nothing much, just talking about my sister's engagement tomorrow."

"Where will Fangfang hold her engagement ceremony? I don't have anything to do, I'll go over there when the time comes." Cao Zhen said.

Cao Shujie really didn't know which hotel it was. He said, "It was all prepared by his girlfriend. I'll ask and let you know later."

"Okay, don't forget it." Cao Zhen instructed him. He always felt that Cao Shujie was a little unreliable now.

Cao Shujie took Mengmeng and Ruirui back upstairs. The family was still discussing tomorrow's affairs. Cao Shujie didn't quite understand the rules, so he just listened from the side.

At around 1 p.m., the families of the eldest and second brothers drove over in a car. When they met, Cao Shujie told them that a room had been booked.

This wasn't a big expense, so the three brothers didn't say anything polite.

However, my eldest brother seemed very particular about tomorrow's affairs and explained some customs in detail.

Cao Shujie also said to his second brother: "I think we can just have a meal together, why are you talking so much?"

"This is the rule." said the second brother Cao Shuxin.

Cao Shujie didn't care. He saw his older nephew Cao Yichuan and his younger nephew Cao Yixin, and waved to them to come over.

"Yichuan, how are your preparations for the college entrance examination going? Are you confident?" Cao Shujie asked.

Cao Yichuan now looks much more confident than before: "Uncle, I'm fine. I can usually get more than 600 points in mock exams."

Cao Shujie found that his nephew seemed very confident, and he thought this was a good thing.

But his sister-in-law Zhang Yi said to him: "Yichuan, don't be proud. There are many people who are better than you. If you can get into a key university like your uncle did, that would be called ability."

When Cao Yichuan heard his mother say this, he instantly lost his spirit.

In addition to strength, luck is also required. Cao Yichuan feels that it is still a bit difficult.

As for his nephew Cao Yixin, Cao Shujie simply didn't ask him about his studies. It would be useless to ask.

This kid is waiting to join the army after finishing high school. In his words, just write casually during the college entrance examination and don't take it too seriously.

Cao Shuxin and Ren Jingjing were convinced by their son's desperate attitude and decided to let him do what he wanted.

When they were getting ready to go out for dinner in the evening, Tong Jiayi called and told them that his eldest brother-in-law and his family had arrived. He wanted to come over and treat them to dinner, but was stopped by Cao Shujie.

"Take care of your family first and don't worry about this." Cao Shujie said.

He just says whatever he wants to say, he never cares about the details.

We stayed in the hotel opposite at night. Cao Shujie booked 8 rooms in total, so there were enough rooms.

Cao Shujie originally wanted to let his daughter and son live in the same room, but he didn't expect Mengmeng to see through his evil plan.

Mengmeng insisted on living with her mother.

Cao Shujie had no choice but to share a room with his son reluctantly.

Before leaving, Cao Shujie said that his daughter was ignorant.

To be honest, for Cao Shujie, sleeping here is not as comfortable as sleeping at home.

But there was no other choice but to make do for one night.

The next morning, Cao Huifang came to see them, and they went to a nearby fast food restaurant to have breakfast together.

Not long after finishing her meal, Cao Huifang received a call from Tong Jiayi, who said that he would bring his family over later.

At around 9: in the morning, Tong Jiayi arrived with his family.

In addition to Tong Jiayi's parents, sister, brother-in-law, and two other uncles who I met last time, this time there were also Tong Jiayi's two uncles and two cousins.

There were indeed a lot of people, but Cao Shujie didn’t remember many of them.

What Cao Shujie didn't expect was that Ye Beiwen, a former classmate of his sister, came over and brought a bouquet of flowers to his sister.

Cao Shujie also told his buddy Cao Zhen about the hotel where his sister was getting engaged.

The customs of the two places are somewhat different. For this engagement, Tong Jiayi's parents brought a lot of things. In Cao Shujie's opinion, this was totally unnecessary, but their family was also very particular. Although the conditions were not as good as Cao Shujie's, they still gave what was due.

As for the bank card containing the betrothal gift, Wang Yuelan handed it to her daughter Cao Huifang, asking her to take it back and return it to Tong Jiayi's parents.

Their family is not short of money, and there is no need to make things difficult for the other party.

When Tong Jiayi and Cao Huifang changed their words, Wang Yuelan and Cao Jianguo gave them a very generous red envelope.

Grandpa Cao Zhenghu also took out the red envelope he had prepared and handed it over.

Cao Shujie didn't prepare anything, but his wife also sent over the gold jewelry she had bought for his sister in advance.

It seems particularly lively at this time.

When Cao Huifang and Tong Jiayi came to Cao Shujie to toast, Cao Shujie said to Tong Jiayi: "Brother, I hope you can take good care of Fangfang in the future. If she gets angry, tell me what's wrong and I'll teach her a lesson."

"But if you make a move, I won't let you." Cao Shujie said.

He didn't care what Tong Jiayi's family thought. In Cao Shujie's opinion, this was the bottom line and could not be violated.

Tong Jiayi also made various assurances that he would take good care of Cao Huifang.

On the contrary, Cao Huifang, who is usually carefree, couldn't help but hugged her brother and cried when she heard what her brother said.

Cao Shujie comforted her and said to his sister: "Live well in the future and don't lose your temper."

"Brother, I don't have that!" Cao Huifang disagreed (End of this chapter)
