The leisurely life of a reborn dad

After Cao Shujie and his family of three arrived home, Zhang Tianzhi had not returned to Xinjiang Changji.

This time he came here, he felt that everything was not smooth starting from the Changji Railway Station.

I visited more than a dozen apple farmers in a row, and the largest one was the one named Bayer.

But all the apples in Bayil have been sold, and the remaining fruit farmers with smaller planting scales offer different prices, ranging from high to low.

It is difficult to agree on this price, which also means that he cannot smoothly collect apples from here in bulk.

This result frustrated him.

That afternoon, Zhang Tianzhi hesitated for a few minutes before taking out his cell phone and dialing the number of the boss Nie Bin.

After the call was connected, the boss Nie Bin's voice came from the phone: "Tianzhi, how are you doing over there?"

"Boss, I'm sorry, it didn't go well this time." Zhang Tianzhi said.

"Tell me about it." Nie Bin said.

Then I heard Zhang Tianzhi recount every detail of the past few days since arriving in Xinjiang Changji.

After listening, Nie Bin said to Zhang Tianzhi: "Tianzhi, come back, don't stay there."

"Boss, how about I go somewhere else?" Zhang Tianzhi said.

But Nie Bin said to him: "There is no need to transfer, there will be no results if you continue to transfer."

"Boss, why don't I go check out the other three Apple bases." Zhang Tianzhi understood what his boss meant.

Nie Bin was silent for a while and said, "Come back first."

"Okay!" Zhang Tianzhi didn't say anything else. He thought about booking a ticket and going back tomorrow.

…

Over in Quancheng, Nie Bin entered the office with his mobile phone, thinking about what his little brother Zhang Tianzhi called him and said that Nie Bin really admired Cao Shujie.

He couldn't figure out how Cao Shujie did this, but he guessed that Cao Shujie probably knew about Zhang Tianzhi's trip to Changji.

But he didn't say anything. When everyone was making money, he couldn't do too much.

Besides, as the end of the year approaches, Apple’s price in the market is ups and downs, which is very unstable.

And Cao Shujie can get a lot of apples here, and there is no mention of continuing to increase prices, so why should he bother himself.

If he still transports apples from Xinjiang to Quancheng at this time, there will be many problems that cannot be solved in a short while. It is safer to continue to take apples from Cao Shujie.

…

The couple Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin went for a walk in the town on the second day. The couple walked around together. Cheng Xiaolin said to Cao Shujie: "Just watch here. I'll go home and make the video. Finish it early. Come early." Upload later."

Strictly speaking, this video itself is more like an explanation, and it is difficult for this kind of video to have the potential to become popular.

Cheng Xiaolin didn't expect it to become popular. Even so, Cheng Xiaolin was still very careful when editing the video.

She thought twice about every entry to ensure that the video was both boring and watchable.

Three hours passed unknowingly. During this period, Cheng Xiaolin did not move. She kept editing the video.

While I was busy, I suddenly heard my mother-in-law Wang Yuelan's shout from downstairs.

"Mom, please wait a moment, I'll come down right away." Cheng Xiaolin responded.

After editing another scene, Cheng Xiaolin saw that the charging indicator light of the video recorder had turned green. She pulled off the cord, held it in her hand, and walked downstairs.

While editing the video just now, Cheng Xiaolin suddenly discovered that several shots seemed too independent and lacked contrast, and were still not perfect enough. She planned to go to the orchard on her mountain to make up a few shots while it was still dark.

When she came downstairs, she saw her mother-in-law, daughter and grandfather playing here.

Seeing Cheng Xiaolin coming down, Mengmeng immediately shouted: "Mom, are you done?"

"I'm not done yet. What can I do for you?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her.

Mengmeng shook her head and said, "Grandma was looking for you just now."

"Mom, do you have a problem with me?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her.

"I heated two pitayas on the radiator. Mengmeng wanted to eat them just now. I want you to come down and eat them together." Wang Yuelan said.

At this time, the outside temperature was too low, and it would be too cold to eat dragon fruit directly. Wang Yuelan was afraid that her father-in-law, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter would get cold stomachs from eating it, which would cause trouble later, so she took two dragon fruits in advance and put them on the radiator to warm them up.

Hearing what happened, Cheng Xiaolin took the initiative and asked: "Mom, bring the dragon fruit over and I'll cut it."

"Okay." Wang Yuelan went to get the dragon fruit.

Cheng Xiaolin put down the video recorder in her hand and went to the kitchen to get a fruit knife.

When she came back with a fruit knife, her mother-in-law had already brought two red dragon fruit and placed them on the table.

Mengmeng watched from the side and saw her mother holding a fruit knife in her hand. She shouted: "Mom, cut it quickly."

"You are the only one who is anxious." Cheng Xiaolin said to her.

"Hehe." Mengmeng laughed.

Cheng Xiaolin cut the two dragon fruits into eight pieces with a few knives.

She first handed two petals to Cao Zhenghu: "Grandpa, eat it."

Then he handed two petals to her mother-in-law. Just when she was about to hand it to Mengmeng, she picked up one and handed it to herself: "Mom, you eat."

"I'm not in a hurry. I'll put the knife down first." Cheng Xiaolin saw her daughter running back and forth next to the table and felt that it was too dangerous to put the fruit knife here.

"Linlin, give me the knife. I'll cut some vegetables and cook first." Wang Yuelan didn't eat a single slice. When she heard what her daughter-in-law said, she rushed to the kitchen with a fruit knife.

When Cheng Xiaolin saw it, she didn't care about eating the dragon fruit. She turned and walked towards the kitchen: "Mom, you go and rest for a while. I'll just chop the vegetables."

"It's okay, you can go out and do your work." Wang Yuelan said.

Cheng Xiaolin doesn't have that kind of personality. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can't compete with each other in the kitchen. One chooses and washes vegetables, and the other chops vegetables and meat. They work well together.

In the living room outside, Mengmeng and her grandfather Cao Zhenghu are here.

There was an eight-petal dragon fruit on the table. Cao Zhenghu pushed the two-petal dragon fruit that his wife had just given him to Mengmeng: "Mengmeng, eat it quickly."

"Grandpa, I won't eat it. You can eat it. I have something to eat." Mengmeng pointed at the other pieces of dragon fruit and said.

Cao Zhenghu waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, grandpa gave it to you."

After Mengmeng heard this, her eyes narrowed with laughter. She said, "Thank you, grandpa," and took half of it and started chewing it.

This is not the first time to eat dragon fruit. Mengmeng eats it very skillfully. He bites from the middle to both sides first, and after taking only a few bites, he throws away the outer skin with a little pulp.

"Mengmeng, don't let it go to waste." Cao Zhenghu also said to her.

Mengmeng nodded: "Grandpa, eat it quickly, it's so sweet."

"Okay, you eat first, grandpa will eat later." Cao Zhenghu was very happy to see Mengmeng eating with great enthusiasm.

When a child is addicted to eating, he will ignore everything and just eat a lot.

Mengmeng is like this too.

The red dragon fruit is relatively sweet, and Mengmeng likes to eat it.

She ate a lot, two yuan, three yuan, five yuan.

It felt like after a while, only one piece of the eight pieces of dragon fruit was left.

Mengmeng looked at the last piece of dragon fruit on the table, and then at the grandpa, her eyes still a little confused.

Isn’t there a lot?

Why is it gone?

She couldn't figure it out, and when she looked at the seven pieces of dragon fruit skin next to her, each piece had more or less uneaten pulp.

"Grandpa, are you gone?" Mengmeng asked.

Is she that good at eating?

Cao Zhenghu was very happy when he saw his great-granddaughter eating so well. He pointed to the last piece on the table and said to Mengmeng, "Mengmeng, eat it quickly."

"Oh." Mengmeng nodded, she was a little hesitant, should she eat or not?

But unable to resist the old man's persuasion, Mengmeng still reached out and took it to her mouth. Smelling the fragrance of dragon fruit, Mengmeng opened her mouth and finished it in a few mouthfuls.

At this time, there was red juice, minced dragon fruit flesh and black fruit pieces around the corners of her mouth, on her small face and even on her forehead.

Cao Zhenghu couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

He thinks Mengmeng is too cute.

Cheng Xiaolin and her mother-in-law Wang Yuelan cut the vegetables and meat and prepared them, thinking that they would stir-fry them later.

Coming out of the kitchen, Cheng Xiaolin was about to eat two pieces of dragon fruit. When she saw that there was only a pile of pitaya skins with residual flesh left on the table, and then looked at the look on her daughter's face, Cheng Xiaolin knew what was going on. .

Just eat it, she doesn't care, there are still many in the utility room.

But she still asked Mengmeng: "Mengmeng, where is the dragon fruit, why don't you leave a piece for me?"

Who knew what Mengmeng was thinking, and suddenly said: "I didn't eat."

"..."

Cheng Xiaolin was speechless as she looked at the cute face covered with pitaya minced meat and black fruit pellets.

I'm thinking that the evidence is right there in your face and you still say you haven't eaten.

Even Cao Zhenghu was surprised. He watched Mengmeng finish eating these 8 pieces of dragon fruit. What's the rhythm now?

Just as she was wondering, Mengmeng shouted loudly: "Mom, you are also in the room, why do you wrongly accuse me of eating it?"

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her mother-in-law, then at her grandfather, and she said, "Grandpa, Mom, I'm going to beat her up, won't you stop me?"

Wang Yuelan thought for a while and suddenly said: "I'll go to the kitchen to cook two more dishes."

Cao Zhenghu suddenly remembered something and said, "I'll go to the room to get the radio."

Cheng Xiaolin's eyes flashed fiercely as she looked at her daughter: "Mengmeng, think about it again and tell me if you ate it?"

Cheng Xiaolin said this.

Mengmeng looked at her grandpa and then at her grandma. They were both gone. Before she realized what was going on, she continued to talk back: "No!"

Cheng Xiaolin raised her hand: "Mengmeng, I will let you remember something today."

"If you dare to hit me, I'll tell dad." Mengmeng said.

Seeing how stubborn this girl was, Cheng Xiaolin suddenly asked her: "Okay, if you continue to be tough, do you want me to use a camera to leave you with evidence so that I can complain to your father?"

"What do you mean?" Mengmeng suddenly felt in danger.

She watched helplessly as her mother opened the stand of the video recorder and turned on the switch.

Before she could figure out why, Cheng Xiaolin walked towards Mengmeng, reached out and grabbed Mengmeng's arm, and slapped Mengmeng's butt with her other hand without any mercy.

"Papa pa pa"

Three slaps landed accurately on Mengmeng's butt.

The little guy didn't cry either. He stared at his mother stubbornly, expressing her dissatisfaction in this way.

She retorted: "I'm going to tell dad that you beat me."

"Mengmeng, just say it, but I want to see if your father dares to avenge you?" Cheng Xiaolin was determined.

Mengmeng couldn't understand the meaning of her mother's words, so she raised her head and said, "Why don't you dare? Dad said that if you dare to beat me, he will beat you."

When Cheng Xiaolin heard what Mengmeng said, she then straightened her face and asked seriously: "Did your father really say that?"

Mengmeng looked at her mother and thought she was scared, so she nodded heavily: "Of course, why did I lie to you?"

"Okay, I'll give you two more slaps." Cheng Xiaolin originally planned to stop, but after hearing what Mengmeng said, she added two more slaps.

After the beating, Cheng Xiaolin looked at Mengmeng who was pouting and about to cry. She pointed to the open video recorder and said to her daughter: "I have the video recorder on. I have written down how I beat you just now. If you have the ability, I will give it to you." Dad said go and let me see if he dares to beat me?"

When Mengmeng heard this, she ran directly to the video recorder, rolled her eyes in circles, and said with a pout, "Dad, mom beat me. Her dragon fruit disappeared, so she was wronged to be the one who ate it."

"What does it have to do with me? There are so many people in the house, and my mother is here, but I haven't eaten. Why do you doubt me? Why do you beat me? Dad, you have to avenge me!"

When Cheng Xiaolin saw her daughter's coquettish behavior, she was a little confused on the spot. Seeing Mengmeng's face stained with juice and pulp, and speaking with an overly angry look on her face, she became puzzled: " What is Mengmeng thinking? Is there really water in her little head? "

Without thinking about it, Cheng Xiaolin said to her daughter: "Mengmeng, it's okay for you to complain. Can you wash the dragon juice and pulp off your face first?"

"How can you have the nerve to complain when your face is full of juice and pulp?"

"Ah?" Mengmeng subconsciously raised her hands and touched her face.

There are some pulp residues and a little juice on my hands.

"Ouch!" Mengmeng was not really stupid. She understood and ran towards the bathroom. She wanted to wash away the evidence before filing a complaint.

But Cheng Xiaolin had already put away the video recorder and went to the orchard on the mountain to replenish the footage.

In the evening, when Cao Shujie came back from town, Mengmeng, who had washed her face very clean, was the first to run up to Cao Shujie, opened her mouth and began to complain.

Cao Shujie was still a little confused. What did my daughter mean?

One mother beat her at a time, allowing myself to avenge her.

Isn't this nonsense?

"Honey, what's the matter?" Cao Shujie asked his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin thought of the video left on the video recorder and said to her husband: "Eat first, and I will talk to you about it after dinner."

She was still a little angry: "Shujie, I found that you were right before. Mengmeng is indeed too naughty. She must be beaten to make her remember. Otherwise, no matter how high the sky is and how thick the ground is, it won't be enough for her." It’s a toss-up.”

When Cao Shujie heard what his wife said, his head was buzzing.

What's happening here?

It felt like the seriousness of the matter was beyond his imagination and out of control.
