The leisurely life of a reborn dad

"You don't have to say it." Cao Zhenghu took the bottle with both hands and looked at it carefully.

It has been more than two years since Cao Shujie picked it up and kept it at home. When he first picked it up, Cao Shujie had washed it very clean and it looked like it was pure silver.

After that, I kept it in the cabinet and ignored it. Unexpectedly, when I took it out now, it turned a little black.

Cao Shujie wondered if it was really pure silver?

Having said that, if this silver bottle has something to do with the Three Kingdoms, it would make sense.

He remembered that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao used to use silver needles to test vegetables for fear that others would poison him.

Cao Zhenghu kept looking at the silver bottle in his hand without saying anything.

The bottle is also engraved with strong concave and convex dragon and phoenix patterns.

Generally speaking, silverware with dragon and phoenix patterns is definitely not owned by ordinary people, and it is more likely to be related to the powerful people at that time.

Cao Zhenghu looked at the bottle bit by bit. After looking at the bottle body, he then looked at the bottom of the bottle and then looked inside the bottle mouth.

But with the naked eye it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly.

Cao Shujie quickly went to get a flashlight and handed it to his grandfather: "Grandpa, do you know antiques?"

He was quite curious. Could it be that grandpa also had an unknown past?

Obviously, he had a beautiful idea. Cao Zhenghu didn't even look at him and said, "I don't know you. I just want to see what's inside."

At the end, he didn't understand what it was.

A group of children surrounded Cao Zhenghu and wanted to continue listening to the story. They were not interested in the silver bottle in Cao Zhenghu's hand.

"Grandpa, please continue talking." Cao Heng said.

Cao Zhenghu looked at these little kids with a satisfied smile on his face: "Okay, I'll tell you more."

Cao Zhenghu went east and west, telling the legends to the little kids.

Cao Shujie also listened carefully. He really didn't know that the unfounded treasure on the deserted mountain in their village could be related to the Three Kingdoms period.

Having said that, this matter is really getting further and further away.

Cao Shujie wanted to laugh when he thought of this.

However, there is indeed an ancient tomb of celebrities from the Three Kingdoms period in their county. It is the tomb of one of Cao Cao's sons. However, that tomb has been excavated long ago and is still available for people to visit. Cao Shujie also visited it, and there are indeed some gold and silverware inside. But there was nothing else.

I don’t know if it disappeared with the passage of time, or if it was taken away and not displayed.

"Shujie, aren't you going to the capital in a while? If not, take it and find someone to look at it. If there is a story, we can tell a story about this scenic spot." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie thought his wife was right: "Let's take a look. There must be people in this field at Rongbaozhai."

Cao Shujie was really hungry after putting this unexpected silver vase back up.

"Honey, is there anything to eat at home?" Cao Shujie asked her.

"There's still a little more. I'll heat it up for you." Cheng Xiaolin said.

After a while, Cheng Xiaolin came over with a bowl of winter melon and pork ribs soup. The soup was so clear that you could clearly see the bottom of the bowl.

"Oh, so bland." Cao Shujie was also puzzled.

Cheng Xiaolin said: "I learned from the Internet how to make Cantonese food. You can try it."

Cao Shujie took a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth. It really tasted a little bit.

"Very good." He praised.

After hearing this, Cheng Xiaolin laughed happily.

"Eat quickly. There's still steamed rice. I'll get you a bowl." Cheng Xiaolin went to the kitchen again.

When Cao Shujie was in Quancheng, he went to Dikou Fruit Wholesale Market with Song Baoming after breakfast. He spent some time there and chatted with Zhang Tianzhi and his wife for a while. After shopping, he returned to Qingshi Town. Unknowingly, , the whole morning has already passed.

After he finished eating, he went to wash the dishes and chopsticks, and then went upstairs to play with his son.

After a while, Mengmeng came up, and Cao Shujie was quite surprised when he saw her: "Mengmeng, why don't you play with your little friend?"

"It's not fun, they are all gone." Mengmeng said a little bored.

Seeing his daughter like this, Cao Shujie reminded her: "Have you finished your winter vacation homework? If not, hurry up and finish it. I will take you out to play in a few days."

"Dad, I finished writing it a long time ago. You didn't even notice." Mengmeng squinted at her father.

Cao Shujie didn't feel embarrassed, and then said to his daughter: "After you finish writing, go to do the questions again, practice more and consolidate, otherwise you won't be able to do it next time."

Ke Mengpi said: "If you can't, then you can't. Dad will tell me when the time comes."

She thought very clearly, but Cao Shujie changed his face and said seriously: "I won't tell you. You can obviously do the questions you know how to do, so why should you rely on others."

When Mengmeng heard what her father said, she seemed to understand. She turned around and looked at her father again. She felt that what he said was so profound.

…

Cao Yirui couldn't stay at home. Cheng Xiaolin thought it was too cold outside and was unwilling to go out with him to play. He went to his father again and pointed to the outside where he was making noises and couldn't explain clearly.

But Cao Shujie understood what his son meant, so he asked Mengmeng if he wanted to go out?

"Dad, where are you going?" Mengmeng asked her father.

Cao Shujie didn't have anything specific, so he told Mengmeng to go for a walk outside.

"Then I won't go. I'm too tired from running just now. You can go." Mengmeng lay down on the bed, as if she had no bones in her body. She put one leg on the edge of the bed and swung back and forth.

After seeing it, Cao Shujie reminded him: "Don't put your shoes on the bed. If you soil the sheets, your mother will scold you again."

"I don't care, just wash it if it's dirty. It's such a simple thing." Mengmeng said.

When Cao Shujie heard what she said, it made sense.

He put his son in thick cotton trousers and a cotton-padded jacket, and wrapped him in a down jacket like a rice dumpling. Amidst his son's protests, Cao Shujie took him out.

Cheng Xiaolin didn't say anything to them after seeing it, but just told them not to blow the wind.

"Goodbye, mom." Cao Yirui said goodbye to his mother politely.

When the two men came outside, there were not many people on the street. Everything Cao Yirui saw felt fresh, and he was much more lively than at home.

Cao Shujie asked his son where he wanted to play.

Seeing his son pointing in the direction of the river dam, Cao Shujie definitely didn't want to go.

Going to the dam at this time is just because of the cold wind, and you can easily catch a cold if you are not careful.

Arriving at their old house, Cao Shujie saw his uncle Cao Jianlin talking to the previous village accountant Cao Zhengyin at the door.

He carried his son over.

"Ruirui calls me grandpa, grandpa." Cao Shujie taught him.

The little guy is very cooperative and shouts when he opens his mouth. He has a very outgoing personality.

"Shujie, why are you here?" Cao Jianlin was very happy to see his nephew.

Cao Shujie told him that his son Yi Rui couldn't stay at home and took him out to have some fresh air.

As soon as Cao Jianlin finished listening, he said to his nephew: "Shujie, don't mess around. If Ruirui catches a cold, it will be very troublesome."

"Don't worry, uncle, I know what's going on." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Zhengyin was also very happy to see Cao Shujie and called him Secretary Cao.

"Grandpa Zhengyin, don't shout like that." Cao Shujie quickly waved his hand: "Just call me by my name."

"How can that be done? Rules are rules." Cao Zhengyin said.

Cao Shujie saw that the old house opposite was still under construction, and it was different now than before.

The gate that previously opened to the south has been changed to face the east this time, making it easier for vehicles to enter and exit.

After all, there is an alley in front of their house, and the door opens to the south, making it inconvenient to get in and out.

Cao Jianlin also said: "Shujie, your parents are quite capable now. They sell so much bread. Now they have demolished the old house and rebuilt it. I heard that they will install machines to make bread."

Cao Shujie nodded and told his uncle that such a thing happened.

"They just can't sit still." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Yirui was also unreliable in his father's arms. He kept kicking his legs hard and had to get down and walk on his own.

Cao Shujie put him down, but his eyes never left his son's figure, and he would block his way forward to prevent him from wandering around.

Today is the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, and there are 21 days left before the Spring Festival. Cao Shujie asked his eldest brother, will the second brother come back this year?

The uncle told him that the second brother and his family would definitely come back.

But not necessarily the eldest brother. The orchard is mainly contracted by his eldest brother. There is no output yet and a lot of basic work needs to be done.

"Uncle, just wait and enjoy the blessings." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

But Cao Jianlin disagreed. He shook his head and said to his nephew: "What a blessing, just don't let me worry about it."

Having said that, Cao Jianlin still has two sons.

The sun began to set from the top of the head to the west unknowingly. As the sun set, there was no sunlight, the temperature seemed to be getting lower and lower, and people couldn't stay still, so they all rushed home.

Cao Jianlin was about to turn 70. He couldn't hold it any longer and wanted to go home to keep warm, so he asked Cao Shujie to follow him.

But Cao Shujie thought about it and decided to go home first.

"Okay, you can come over for dinner some other time when you are free." Cao Jianlin turned around and went home a little lonely.

At this time, Cao Jianlin still envied his younger brother. Not to mention how the next generation was doing, at least this nephew was by his side.

It's not like his two sons and grandsons are not around, he is alone, living here a little lonely, and he feels empty in his heart.

On the morning of the 7th, Cao Shujie went to the factory and called the financial manager Hu Youcai to his office.

He told Hu Youcai the benefits of going to Quancheng this time, three in total, and asked Hu Youcai to quickly calculate last year's financial situation, and when the final settlement is made, all the tax that can be refunded will be refunded.

This is not a small sum of money, Cao Shujie must care about it.

As for how the government would subsidize Xuemeng Food Factory, Cao Shujie felt that he had to ask Guan Guotai about this matter.

…

A few more days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer.

On this day, the "Meet the Celebrities" column team called Cao Shujie again and told him that they would arrive in Qingshi Town on time on January 16th and go to the factory to record footage on January 17th.

Cao Shujie had no objection to this arrangement.

Mengmeng has been waiting!
