The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 75 Mengmeng, the Prodigal Son

"Husband, look at this fruit grows so fast, it's so big now, why do I think we won't be able to use it until September, it's almost the beginning of August." Cheng Xiaolin is not an idiot who doesn't know anything.

Looking at the size of the fruit in the old orchard, Cheng Xiaolin felt that the nutrient solution prepared by her husband was really awesome!
Sure enough, it is worthy of the name, simple, direct and effective!
Cao Shujie also looked at the half-sized kiwi fruit, and said with a smile, "It's okay, it will be summer vacation, so it's a good day."

"You don't want to find a way to promote it? Otherwise, who will come?" Cheng Xiaolin reminded her husband.

Cao Shujie nodded: "Honey, don't worry!"

Everything is under control.

"Come on, let's take a look inside." Cao Shujie held Mengmeng's hand and pointed inside.

Cheng Xiaolin nodded, followed behind their father and daughter, and walked inside together.

The small turquoise apples on the apple tree are already bigger than quail eggs.

Seeing these cute little fruits, Mengmeng had 'bad thoughts' in her eyes, she wanted to pick one and play with it.

Cheng Xiaolin disagreed: "Mengmeng, you prodigal son, your father has to wait for it to grow up and sell it for money, you are going to harm it now."

Mengmeng blinked her eyes, but didn't understand.

"Father, I want it!" She stretched out her hand and insisted on picking one before giving up.

Without saying a word, Cao Shujie picked one that looked a bit small, and handed it to his daughter: "Here!"

"Honey, can you stop spoiling her like this." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie said with a smile: "This fruit is bad, and I have to pick it up and throw it away sooner or later. Let her play with it."

Hearing what her husband said, Cheng Xiaolin put on a straight face: "You know what I mean, you follow her too much, it's not good."

"I understand!" Cao Shujie looked at his wife with a cynical expression on his face, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not be able to teach a prodigal son."

"Father, what is a prodigal son?" Mengmeng was very confused, scratching her head and asked her father.

By the way, she also glanced at her mother. Although she is young, she can also feel that her mother is very unfriendly to her at the moment.

Cao Shujie hugged his daughter and continued to walk forward. He saw Cao Zhenggang and the others building a pigsty in his eyes, and raised his hand to say hello from a distance: "Grandpa Zhenggang, he is busy. Is everything going well?"

"It's going well, don't worry, I'll definitely give you this job quickly." Cao Zhenggang said, patting his chest.

This is his credibility guarantee, and it is also the core secret for him to gain a foothold in the countryside and get along well!

Once you can't do a good job, there is no shortage of people who make irresponsible remarks in the countryside, and the speed of spreading negative information is comparable to half the Internet.

Seeing her father ignoring her, Mengmeng stretched out her hand to press her father's face angrily, and was pricked by the stubble of her beard. She didn't feel the pain, but she thought it was quite interesting, and stretched out her little hand to grab her father's beard .

"hiss!"

Cao Shujie suddenly felt the pain of pulling out his beard, and he quickly raised his hand to hold Mengmeng's mischievous little hand: "Mengmeng, are you looking for a beating?"

While talking, he raised his hand and slapped the daughter's buttocks, it wasn't very hard, and Mengmeng even started giggling.

Cao Zhenggang, who was urging the workers on the opposite side, asked: "Shujie, I see that the apples in your orchard are growing well. They bear fruit much earlier than the fruit trees in other places, and they are also bigger. Why don't you put them in bags? "

Hearing Cao Zhenggang's question about this matter, Cao Shujie waved his hands: "Grandpa Zhenggang, the bagged ones look better, but the light is not enough and the taste is not good. It's better not to wear bags like I am now."

"Then you are not allowed to spray medicine, and there are insects and so on, which will affect your apple production and sales." Cao Zhenggang didn't understand anything.

Cao Shujie smiled and didn't discuss this issue any more.

He just said, "I have my own way."

Cao Zhenggang knew it was someone's secret as soon as he heard it, and he didn't want to say more, so he stopped asking.

Cao Shujie and Cao Zhenggang chatted, Cheng Xiaolin saw this, took Mengmeng from his arms, and took her to see the fruit tree seedlings.

In the mountains, after the heavy rain last time, the growth of the fruit saplings looked better than before, and the weeds in the ground also grew vigorously.

Mengmeng won't let her mother hug her, and now she is standing on the grass by herself, her buttocks pouted, her head bowed on the fruit tree, as if she is studying why it grows so well.

After a while, she suddenly yelled, "Look, Mom!"

"Mengmeng, what's wrong?" Cheng Xiaolin was frightened, could it be that there is something wrong?

Mengmeng turned her head to look at her mother strangely, then turned her head to point at the fruit sapling and said, "Look, mother, there are bugs, why don't they crawl."

"Congchong?" Cheng Xiaolin poked her head over, "Let me see."

She knew that her husband had not used pesticides or insecticides, so she thought that the fruit saplings had really attracted insects.

But if you take a closer look, it's not a bug at all, but a green leaf stalk. I don't know how it hangs on the fruit tree sapling. If you don't pay attention, it really looks like a green bug.

The next moment, Cheng Xiaolin reached out to pick up the leaf stalk and held it in her hand, fiddled with it a few times, Mengmeng saw that her mother dared to take the worm, she was shocked: "Mom, you are amazing!"

Seeing her daughter Mengmeng's eyes widen, her mouth wide open in surprise, with an expression of admiration, Cheng Xiaolin felt a little complacent: "Xiaomian, I'll let you see who is the best."

The couple went inside again, and Mengmeng was always surprised when she saw something she didn't understand, and asked "Mom, what is this" from time to time.

At this time, Cheng Xiaolin would always act as if she knew everything about her mother, which made Mengmeng admire her even more.

On the other side, Cao Shujie and Cao Zhenggang chatted for about ten minutes. Seeing their mother and daughter walking away, Cao Shujie pointed to them and said to Cao Zhenggang, "Grandpa Zhenggang, I have to go over there to see the condition of the fruit trees. Let's talk another day."

"Go quickly." Cao Zhenggang waved his hand to signal him to hurry over.

He also knew in his heart that Cao Shujie would definitely not want to chat with a bad old man like himself for a long time.

Cao Shujie caught up with his wife and children, watching them squatting on the ground, wondering what they were studying, and curious: "What are you doing?"

"Look, Dad!" Mengmeng pointed to a small hole in the ground and said, "Are there any monsters in the hole?"

"..." Cao Shujie thought to himself that you really have a lot of brains!
Cheng Xiaolin wanted to laugh, so she asked Cao Shujie, "Husband, what are you talking about with Grandpa Zhenggang?"

"Just chatting, I asked him when he can finish the work, and when all the work is finished, we should raise less pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese and so on. Let's keep them for fun."

Speaking of this, Cao Shujie pointed to the dense weeds on the ground and said: "Look at how fat these grasses are, it would be a pity to throw them away."

Cheng Xiaolin looked down at the grass growing between the two rows of fruit trees, it looked really fertile, she nodded: "It really is."
