The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 300 Mengmeng's filial piety is commendable (5000) Try to be ten thousand today, ask for a monthly ticket

It rained intermittently for three days.

The next day, Cao Shuchao and Zhuang Xuesong were on the night shift together, and nothing unusual happened.

On the third day, Cao Shujie took Dahei and Xiaohei to the battle in person, and Cao Jianjun was alone on the night shift, so he didn't feel at ease.

Until the sun completely shredded the dark clouds, the sky cleared up, and the depressed feeling of the people who had been oppressed by the rain for several days disappeared, Cao Shujie's orchard was revived with a new round of vitality.

After three days of rest at home, Zhu Shengliang came to work on his electric scooter.

When Cao Shujie first saw him, he found that he was still walking a bit unnaturally, so he asked him: "Old Zhu, are you okay? If you can't, just rest for two more days. There is no rush to make money. Don't lose the big because of small things."

"Boss, don't worry, I'm sure I'll be fine..." Zhu Shengliang patted his chest and reassured.

Three days, plus a night shift in between, calculated according to their unit wages, a total of 240 yuan.

When Zhu Shengliang thought of this, his heart bleeds. To him, these hundreds of dollars are not a small sum.

At the same time, he has been blaming himself. People in their 40s can still fall when they walk!
Zhu Shengliang secretly warned himself in his heart that he must pay attention in the future.

However, all the things his boss Cao Shujie did that day also made Zhu Shengliang's gratitude to Cao Shujie indescribable in words. He kept all his emotions in his heart, thinking that it is best to work hard and do more work. in return.

Cao Shujie paid all the money for filming and medical expenses. Before Cao Shujie left, he left 600 yuan to his wife to buy ribs for him to increase nutrition.

In Zhu Shengliang's view, this was all caused by himself and had nothing to do with his boss, but his boss still took it all down quietly.

This matter has to be left to work on the construction site outside. Many contractors or Party A are eager to think of any way to get rid of their relationship, unless they meet a conscientious contractor.

"Boss, thank you." Zhu Shengliang expressed his gratitude to Cao Shujie again.

Cao Shujie waved his hand: "Old Zhu, I have rented this place for 30 years. You can't say that you will work here this year, but you won't come next year. No matter what you do in the future, you must give priority to ensuring your own safety so that you can do more. Year."

"Hey!" Zhu Shengliang nodded heavily.

I knew this truth before, but I didn't take it to heart. I suffered a loss this time, and Zhu Shengliang remembered it.

Cao Shujie also took this opportunity to review the importance of safety for the other three people.

With Zhu Shengliang's lesson from the past, the three of them firmly remembered this matter.

"Okay, I've finished what I have to say, everyone go to work." Cao Shujie finally said.

The four people entered different places in the orchard with their tools and started to get busy.

Cao Shujie was not idle either. He took a pair of scissors for pruning the residual branches of fruit trees and walked towards the old orchard.

The kiwifruit and apple trees on the seven acres of land have been around for some years.

According to common sense, these fruit trees have reached their limit. If I hadn't sprayed them with a lot of nutrient solution in the past two years, the fruiting volume this year may have reached a new low.

Cao Shujie's plan is to cut down all these fruit trees and plant new ones after this year's fruit is produced.

In this way, those fruit trees newly planted last year will be able to pick up the stubble next year and start to produce fruit.

In addition, Cao Shujie has some ideas, he wants to use this area as a test field.

Once successful, Cao Shujie will plant new varieties of fruit trees that are not currently available in the market, which is very important for the long-term development in the future.

Just thinking about it, Cao Shujie came to the field and his eyes fell on the fruit trees. He saw the withered and yellow branches and leaves on the fruit trees. Without hesitation, he took the special scissors and cut off the bad branches directly.

As he was walking, Cao Shujie heard a 'squeak' in his ears.

The voice was not loud, and it disappeared after two calls, but Cao Shujie could still hear it clearly. He stopped and looked around suspiciously.

Amidst the slow waiting, Cao Shujie heard a few more 'squeaks'.

When the voice sounded, Cao Shujie quickly turned his head and locked a position.

He walked towards the northwest, and after a few steps, the sound stopped again, but this did not affect Cao Shujie's footsteps at all.

He walked up to a fruit tree in a few long strides, and searched carefully with his eyes wide open.

Before he could find the target, the sound of "Zhi Zhi" sounded again, and Cao Shujie had locked on the target this time.

Black, with two transparent wings, it will make a 'squeak' call every once in a while.

"Got it!" Cao Shujie subconsciously showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Thinking of this special delicacy, he instinctively began to swallow his saliva.

"There is still a cicada, so what about the cicada monkey?" Cao Shujie looked down the tree, and he found a dry skin of a cicada monkey on a small branch.

There was a gash on either side of its back.

The next moment, Cao Shujie stood on tiptoe, straightened his arms, and effortlessly grabbed the black cicada that was screaming vigorously on the branch.

By the way, he also cut off the branch that the cicada had been with and held it in his hand. He was going to find a place with a tree after going down the mountain and bury it in the ground. Usually there are eggs laid by the cicada on it. After a few years And a bunch of cicada monkeys can be harvested.

For people, this is a delicacy, but for fruit trees, it is a pest that will absorb the nutrients of the fruit trees themselves!

Cause fruit tree withered leaves, nutrient loss and so on.

"They must all be wiped out." Cao Shujie thought to himself, his hands itching a little.

He broke off Zhizhi's wings without any hassle. Seeing Zhizhi bouncing back and forth in his hand, Cao Shujie raised the corners of his mouth proudly.

He was thinking about catching some more and frying them at home, the taste is really amazing!
Just after a rain, the sky cleared up and the temperature rose again. It was the time when the cicada monkey crawled out from the ground and was ready to transform into a cicada.

It is also the time when many cicadas lay eggs and give birth to the next generation.

Cao Shujie was wandering around in the orchard, straining his ears to listen carefully. After a while, he heard a few faint 'squeaks'.

Without saying anything, Cao Shujie followed the sound and searched for it. This time, he caught a Cicada that hadn't completely transformed. Its body was light green, and its wings were still soft, and they hadn't fully grown.

Half of his body is still stuck in the cicada monkey's shell, struggling to get out.

Cao Shujie reached out to take it again and put it in the palm of his hand. His body was soft. This is the best time to eat it.

In addition to these cicadas, Cao Shujie searched carefully in this old orchard, and let him find some cicada monkeys that had just crawled out of the ground.

Some of these cicada monkeys just dug a hole out of the ground and crawled slowly along the ground.

Some also cut out a small eye on the ground, before it fully exposed. Cao Shujie, who has rich experience, helped it open the small eye and put it into the finger. Knowing that the monkey's front paws grabbed the skin of Cao Shujie's finger belly, With an effort, it was brought out.

There are also those who climb up along the branches of fruit trees, no matter whether they just climbed out, are transforming into cicadas, or have already transformed, Cao Shujie will not let them go.

For about 20 minutes, Cao Shujie had touched forty or fifty cicadas and cicadas in this area.

He couldn't hold it in his hands, and it was hot, so he simply took off the T-shirt on his upper body to cover these cicadas and cicadas.

Hearing more and more "squeaks" in the orchard, Cao Shujie realized that he couldn't handle it alone, so he returned to the hut with scissors and the cicadas that had already been touched. Cao Shujie called Cao Shuchao and the others and called them 4 Come over and catch them together.

In addition to this, Cao Shujie was also a little worried about the situation in the new orchard area.

After coming here, Cao Shujie observed carefully, and he found that there was also a cicada monkey that just got out on the ground.

"Grandma, you're looking for death, right?" Cao Shujie muttered, he felt that he was going to get the barrel, so he opened fire.

When Cao Shuchao and the others came over, they were surprised to see that Cao Shujie was naked and there were many cicada monkeys and cicadas with their wings cut off in his T-shirt.

They also heard some calls just now, but because they were busy with work, they hadn't had time to catch them.

"Shujie, was this caught from the orchard?" Cao Shuchao asked subconsciously.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Brother Chao, isn't this nonsense? I haven't been down the mountain yet?"

"How long have you been arrested? Why are there so many? Let's catch them quickly." Cao Shuchao knew the harm this thing would do to fruit trees.

Let alone him, Cao Jianjun and the three of them also wanted to catch a wave.

Cao Shujie said directly: "Let's go, what are you still doing in a daze? Each person carries a bucket, and we each find a place, and we can catch as much as we can."

Can this thing be cleaned?
Cao Shuchao and the four of them thought about this question in their hearts.

But the action was not slow at all. Everyone lifted a plastic bucket and went in 4 different directions.

Cao Shujie put the more than 30 cicadas and cicada monkeys he had just found out into the bucket, washed the soiled T-shirts with washbasin water, wrung out the water, regardless of whether the T-shirts were still wet, directly Put it on.

The cold clothes made Cao Shujie's skin instantly covered with goosebumps.

When a gust of wind blows and the water evaporates, Cao Shujie feels even cooler.

He didn't have any other thoughts at the moment, and ran to the old orchard area with the bucket in hand.

Unknowingly, the whole morning passed, and Cao Shujie looked at the dense layer of cicada monkeys and cicadas with their wings cut off at the bottom of his bucket, and he was very satisfied.

Thinking of going home at noon to add a dish.

But as time went by, there were more and more squeaks in the orchard on the mountain, which meant that there were more and more cicada monkeys on the mountain.

"It can't go on like this." Cao Shujie thought of this question in his heart.

People are needed at this time, and this piece of land has a full 200 mu of land.

There are 100 acres of trees and fruit trees alone. How many cicada monkeys and cicadas are there in such a large area?

Thinking of this, Cao Shujie didn't say hello to Cao Shuchao and the four of them. He carried the bucket containing the monkey and rode an electric car towards his home down the mountain.

As soon as she entered the door, Mengmeng, who was playing in the yard, heard a 'squeak' sound, she became curious, turned her head to look at the door, and found her father coming in from the outside, immediately ran over and asked: "Dad, what is that sound? Let me see."

While talking, Mengmeng was already laying her hands on the side of the bucket that Cao Shujie was carrying, resting her toes on her toes, and looked into the bucket with her head on her stomach. Seeing the densely packed cicada monkeys at the bottom of the bucket, Mengmeng felt a little hairy .

She subconsciously took a few steps back and almost fell to the ground.

The little mouth was still yelling: "Mom, mom, come and have a look, it's scary."

"Got it?" Cheng Xiaolin guessed what it was when she heard the voice.

Seeing her husband nodding, Cheng Xiaolin was very interested, and walked over quickly, seeing the cicada monkey in the bucket, her eyes lit up: "Shujie, where did you catch it? There are so many, is there any more?"

"They were caught on the mountain. There are too many orchards on the mountain. I'll come down and ask you to catch them together." Cao Shujie said.

"I'll call our parents again and ask grandpa to watch Mengmeng at home, and we'll catch her together in the afternoon."

"I made so much in one morning, enough for us to eat."

Cao Shujie's eyes lit up, and he said, "Even if you sell it, you can make a lot of money!"

At this time, the town received a cicada monkey, which costs 4 cents apiece, which is not cheap.

Cao Shujie looked at the cicada monkeys in the bucket, but he didn't count them in detail, thinking how could there be more than 100, or even more than 200, which is a hundred and ten dollars.

As for whether it can be sold, Cao Shujie is not worried at all.

He can sell it to Wang Leigang nearby, or he can freeze it and eat it slowly.

Even if he can't eat so much, he can sell these cicada monkeys to restaurants in the city or county, and someone will take them.

Thinking about this 100-acre orchard, I don't know how many cicada monkeys can be caught in the end?

"Let's go, hurry up and catch it." Cheng Xiaolin was very excited, she likes to eat this food.

But ordering a plate in a restaurant costs tens of dollars more, and the price is not low.

When she was in the capital, she was reluctant to eat.

Every year in June and July, her parents would catch some and put them in drink bottles, then pour water and freeze them, and save them for her to eat.

But that amount is not much.

Seeing the amount in her husband's bucket just now, Cheng Xiaolin was still thinking in her heart that she could finally have a good meal this time.

But Cao Shujie said: "Don't worry, it's time to eat now, you fry these first, and it won't be too late to catch them after eating."

The orchard is right there and there is no way to run away.

Cheng Xiaolin was right when she thought about it, she quickly cleaned the bucket and went to cook.

Cao Jianguo and Wang Yuelan, the old couple, received a call from their son and came to his son's side. They were also surprised to see their daughter-in-law washed Cicada Monkey and Cicada.

"Caught on the mountain?" Cao Jianguo asked.

Seeing his son nodding, he muttered, "Why are there so many?"

"Dad, just after the rain, the temperature has risen, and all the ones under the ground have crawled out. Let's eat first, and we will go to the mountain to catch them later." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Jianguo nodded, and said, "Someone in the town is collecting them, and they cost 4 cents each."

"However, I know that some people in the county charge 5 cents each. This thing is really not cheap." Cao Jianguo said.

Hearing what his father said, Cao Shujie nodded accordingly: "Dad, let's catch some and keep enough for ourselves, and sell the rest when the time comes."

"Shujie, can we capture such a large orchard with just a few of us?" Mother Wang Yuelan asked.

Cao Shujie stroked his chin and said, "Mom, it's hard to say now. Let's catch a wave first. If there are many, I'll ask people from the village to come and help catch them. When the time comes, I'll count the money for them."

Grabbing this thing, giving 8 yuan for 40 hours a day can't motivate other people at all.

But if it was changed to a piece counting method, and one would be paid 1 cents, Cao Shujie felt that it would definitely arouse the enthusiasm of the big guys.

Cao Shujie thought about what he had gained in the past two hours, and he felt that it would be no problem to grow hundreds of them a day.

As long as you are diligent, you can catch thousands of them a day.

In the end, it was he who benefited the most.

Cao Jianguo also nodded, and said, "Shujie, you have a good idea."

When eating, watching the daughter-in-law Cheng Xiaolin fry a large plate full of cicada monkeys until golden, it is very tempting to watch.

Cao Jianguo smelled the fragrance and was so hungry.

Even Grandpa Cao Zhenghu ate seven or eight.

At the beginning, Mengmeng looked at the fried golden yellow and chubby cicada monkey, and she was a little scared.

But looking at my father, mother, grandpa, grandma and grandpa all eating deliciously, Mengmeng is also greedy.

She boldly reached out and took a cicada monkey, and carefully put it into her mouth.

"Crack, click, click!"

A very special aroma and crunch burst in the mouth.

Mengmeng's eyes lit up instantly, she didn't expect this humble thing to be so delicious.

The little hand was not slow at all, and immediately picked up another cicada monkey and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it crunchy.

Seeing the satisfaction on her little face, Cao Shujie also laughed.

"Mengmeng eat slowly, don't get stuck in the mouth." Cao Shujie told her.

But he thought too much, Mengmeng didn't eat the cicada monkey's paw at all.

Not only that, but she also bit off all the claws with her mouth, and then asked her mother for a piece of paper, pulled out the bitten claws from her mouth, put them on the paper, and pushed them in front of Cao Shujie: "Dad, you eat. "

Cao Shujie thought to himself, you really love me.

Needless to say, this must be a 'good habit' from feeding her prawns.

Cheng Xiaolin said to her after seeing it: "Mengmeng, you can just throw away the paw."

Cao Jianguo said, "Mengmeng, give these little paws to Grandpa."

"No, give it to Dad. Dad said that the hard shell can supplement calcium." Mengmeng's filial piety is commendable.

What else could Cao Shujie say, he stretched out his hand and poured the cicada monkey paw on the paper into his palm, and swallowed it in one gulp.

……

After eating, Cao Shujie took four buckets and put them on the electric tricycle, ready to go up the mountain.

But at this time, Mengmeng also wanted to go to the mountains.

Cao Shujie was in trouble. They went up to the mountain to work, not for fun.

If Mengmeng wants to follow her, she will be busy at that time, who can take care of her?
As soon as she showed an expression of not letting Mengmeng go, she lay down on the ground and started rolling.

"Mengmeng get up quickly, you follow grandma later." Wang Yuelan couldn't see her and said.

Hearing what grandma said, Mengmeng stood up with a giggle, patted the dirt on her body, and showed a bright smile on her little face.

Grandpa Cao Zhenghu didn't go up the mountain, it was too hot outside, and it had just rained on the mountain, so the mountain was still a bit muddy.It's not worth the loss for him to go up.

Cao Shujie and his father and mother worked together all afternoon, and at the last meeting, the four small buckets were filled with two and a half, which is not a small amount.
