The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 78 It doesn't matter if you catch a fish or not, it's a process to enjoy
Hearing what her father said, Mengmeng was very happy, she stretched out two fingers and gestured: "Okay!"

Cao Shujie looked in the rearview mirror at the happy daughter who was lying on her mother's lap and turning back and forth, and he was also happy.

It was not yet 4 p.m. when I drove back to Caojiazhuang, and before I got out of the car, I saw my mother Wang Yuelan and her neighbor Lian Fengying chatting at the door of their house.

Lian Fengying is the biological mother of Cao Shujiefa Xiao Cao Zhen.

Seeing Cao Shujie stop the car, Lian Fengying said to Wang Yuelan, "Yuelan, they came back when I was talking about your granddaughter."

Wang Yuelan was also very happy: "Really, why did you come back so early when you went to the county?"

"Ma'am, why are you standing outside on such a hot day, go sit at home and drink a glass of water." Cao Shujie said after getting off the car.

Cheng Xiaolin got out of the car, hugged Mengmeng and greeted Lian Fengying: "Ma'am, I'm fine now, let's go play at home."

"No, I just came out of your house." Lian Fengying said.

She said: "I just took advantage of my free time today and came to see your dad. It seems that I'm going to be very quick."

"Well, if my dad hadn't been old and recovering slowly, he would have been able to get out of bed long ago." Cao Shujie said.

Lian Fengying said: "You can't say that. Your father fell too hard this time. Fortunately, the bones are fine, otherwise it would be a big trouble."

Whoever said it wasn't the case, even Cao Shujie was a little thankful that his father didn't hurt his bones.

"Yue Lan, look at how well your son is doing now. A family of three guarding the old couple and making troubles at home, I think it's much better than hanging out outside." Lian Fengying was particularly envious.

She said: "Our family, Cao Zhen, has been busy in the county town. He hasn't done anything well for so many years. I should have let him stay on the road with his second uncle. At least it's safe to eat at the public house."

Cao Shujie thought to himself: "Auntie, I'm afraid you haven't seen my Brother Zhen doing well in the county town. With his ability, he will be able to make money sooner or later."

"Mother, I called Brother Zhen today, and he said he would be back at the end of the month." Cao Shujie said.

Hearing what he said, Lian Fengying wondered: "He is really coming back, then I will go to the market in two days to buy some food."

"Really, ma'am, isn't the upper reaches of the Yellow River going to release water? Today I went to the county town to buy fishing nets. Brother Zhen said he would come back at the end of the month."

"He's good at catching fish." Lian Fengying complained about her own son.

"Shujie, you usually talk more about your brother Zhen. He is almost 30 years old, and his relationship has not stabilized yet. What's the matter?"

Cao Shujie said with a smile: "Okay, ma'am, I don't think there is any need to worry about the relationship. My Brother Zhen may find you a better daughter-in-law."

Lian Fengying was very happy when she heard Cao Shujie say this, but she still said with a straight face: "If he can really find it by himself, he will get married and have children early, so I don't need to worry about it."

Speaking of the child, Lian Fengying looked at Mengmeng: "Yuelan, look how good Mengmeng is, quiet and clever, not naughty."

"Thank you grandma!" Mengmeng knew that someone praised her, so she hurriedly said thank you first as her mother taught her.

Such a polite child attracted a lot of compliments, and Mengmeng got down from her mother's arms happily, and had to run around twice by herself.

But Cao Shujie couldn't help but roll his eyes, quiet and clever?
Is it really his daughter?

……

After returning, Cao Shujie got up every day to the sounds of cocks and dogs, and rested under the light of the moon and stars. During the day, he went to the orchard to check the growth of the fruit trees, prune the branches of the fruit trees in the old orchard, and pick off the old ones. For good fruit, water it again in a few days, and basically spend the rest of the time with your parents, wife and children.

At the end of the month, his father Cao Jianguo was finally able to walk on the ground by himself.

But from the way he frowned after walking for a while, it was obvious that his recovery was not very good.

But Cao Jianguo has his pride, and it is annoying to lie on the bed all the time.

"Dad, do you think it's okay? If not, you can rest for two more days." Cao Shujie also reminded his father.

Cao Jianguo yelled directly: "I don't have a limp in my legs, what can I do?"

While talking, Cao Jianguo was not angry when he saw Mengmeng, his granddaughter who was imitating his walk, and smiled from ear to ear: "Mengmeng, you think grandpa is right!"

"Yes!" Mengmeng said bluntly.

She also said, "Grandpa, go fishing."

"You guys go, I'm not good enough yet." Cao Jianguo didn't pretend in front of his granddaughter.

He gestured: "If there is a sudden flood in the Yellow River, I can't even run now, and I will be washed away by the flood, and I won't be able to see Mengmeng."

"No!" Mengmeng grabbed Grandpa's hand as soon as she heard it, her little face was full of panic.

Although she is small, she is really smart and can understand some words.

Wang Yuelan saw her husband frighten her granddaughter like this, she couldn't stand it, and scolded him: "You old bastard, your legs are bad, and you don't know what to say, you must have scared Mengmeng."

"Didn't I just say it casually?" Cao Jianguo was also a little embarrassed, he never expected his granddaughter to understand.

Cao Shujie packed up his fishing rods, poking nets, buckets and ponytails, and said to his wife and daughter, "Come on, see how many fish you can catch while it's cool, and have an extra meal tonight."

Cheng Xiaolin heard her husband shout, and came out with a hat: "Mengmeng, hurry up, wait for us to catch fish, and make up for your grandpa."

"Okay, okay, I want to go fishing too." Mengmeng nodded hastily.

I went fishing by the Yellow River the day before yesterday, but there were no catches, but this did not prevent Cheng Xiaolin from liking fishing too.

She helped Cao Shujie carry the equipment and put it in the back of the electric tricycle. Just as she was about to leave, Daha and Erha, who were chained in the yard, yelled frantically. Gritting the iron cage and grinding his teeth, seeing Cao Shujie and the others go out now, he also wanted to go out to let the wind go.

Seeing the two of them, Mengmeng also called out: "Dad, little dog."

"Okay, take them." Cao Shujie went to untie the dog leash, and led them into the tricycle. Cao Shujie rode the tricycle towards the Yellow River.

When I was at home, I felt more and more that the car was a burden.

For such short distances as they do today, driving is really not as convenient as riding an electric car. In my hometown, I can’t run long distances a few times, and the utilization rate of cars is getting lower and lower.

In ten minutes, they came to the bank of the Yellow River.

Seeing that there is not much water in the river, and the adults are playing with their children on the river bed, Cheng Xiaolin asked, "Husband, why hasn't the water risen yet? Did the upstream forget to release water?"

"How is it possible? You didn't read the news about releasing water these days." Cao Shujie reminded his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin also remembered that the news was indeed talking about this matter.

Cao Shujie locked the electric tricycle, took down the bucket and fishing tackle, and Daha Erha jumped off with him.

After finding a suitable place, Cao Shujie said to his wife: "Look at Mengmeng first, don't let her run around, I'll help you get off the pole."

"Get your own first, I don't need your help." Cheng Xiaolin glanced at her husband, there were only a few steps in fishing, and her husband had finished helping, so what was she doing?

Come fishing, isn't that what you enjoy?
