The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Saturday, March 12, 2011.

Room 703, Unit 3, Building 16, Xingheyuan Community, Chaoyang, Beijing, is a house with two bedrooms and one living room of less than 90 square meters.

It was already past two o'clock in the night, but the light in the second bedroom was still on.

Cao Shujie was too busy again and fell asleep on his desk.

His forehead was pressed on the computer keyboard for a long time, and several square red marks were left on it.

The screen of the desktop computer was still flashing with light, and the letter N filled the screen on the open Word file.

This state of staying up until midnight has lasted for a long time. He only rests for four or five hours a day. He is so tired that he snores like thunder.

Cheng Xiaolin got up in the middle of the night to change her daughter Mengmeng's diapers. She couldn't help but feel distressed when she heard the snoring coming from next door.

Get out of bed, gently open the door, and close the master bedroom door.

When she came to the second bedroom, Cheng Xiaolin didn't dare to take a big step. She walked to her husband, stretched out her hand and pushed him gently, calling: "Husband, husband..."

"Eh?" Cao Shujie groaned in his sleep. He had been suffering from insufficient blood supply since he had pressed his arm for a long time while sleeping. The pain in his arm was like a needle prick, which woke him up.

He raised his head, rubbed the red back of his hands with each other, and his eyes fell on the lower right corner of the computer screen. In 2011, he was a little confused at first, but soon he woke up.

Cheng Xiaolin was nagging him: "Husband, I have told you several times not to work so late and sleep more. I didn't see many people who stayed up late and died suddenly on the news. If you do the same thing, what will we do?"

Cao Shujie wanted to tell his wife that he died suddenly after staying up late 12 years ago, and he was not yet 40 years old.

But his reason told him to keep this secret in his heart.

"Husband, why don't we go back to our hometown? We are no longer in the capital. You are doing this every day. I'm really afraid that one day I won't be able to survive." Cheng Xiaolin said it again. She had raised this question more than once.

If it were in the past, Cao Shujie would definitely have made excuses and prevaricated things.

But not this time. Cao Shujie nodded and smiled at his wife: "Okay!"

The sound of 'ok' fell on Cheng Xiaolin's ears. She was stunned for a long time, then she put her arms around Cao Shujie's shoulders and asked him: "Husband, did you really agree?"

"You're right. If you continue to endure it, you will definitely die. Go home. I want to spend more time with you." Cao Shujie was very happy this time.

"Hmm, then you go to resign at dawn, and I will go to the kindergarten to quit my job. The house..." Cheng Xiaolin looked at the house that she had only lived in for two years, gritted her teeth and said, "Sell it too, go home. Just the right amount of money.”

"Okay!" Cao Shujie smiled: "It's all up to you."

…

A week later, Cao Shujie left the capital in a 10 elegant version of the 2.4L LaCrosse and headed towards the highway.

After quitting his job, the 86.9-square-meter house was sold for 2.6156 million yuan per square meter at a price of 30,100 yuan. The furniture and appliances were also given to the new owner.

After the house is sold and the loan is repaid, there is still 1.6672 million yuan left. Even if it is not recorded in the account in a short period of time, it can ensure that their lives will not be affected.

"Dad, where is the little dog?" The car had just entered the highway and Mengmeng, who was sitting in the safety seat, couldn't stay still.

She twisted her cute little round face and looked for puppies everywhere.

Cheng Xiaolin coaxed her: "Mengmeng, when you get to grandma's house in the afternoon, you can see the little dog. It's so cute."

"Really?" Mengmeng subconsciously widened her eyes.

She especially likes puppies and kittens, especially when she cries, no matter how much she is coaxed, it doesn't work, but as long as she is told to take her to see the puppies and kittens, she will definitely not cry.

"Mengmeng, can your parents take you back to grandma's house?" Cao Shujie also said, "When we go back, we will build a beautiful house ourselves. Then dad will take you to play in the mountains every day."

"Playing?" Mengmeng quickly twisted her body to look out of the car, but she was restrained by the safety seat and could not move: "Mom, the little boy is playing."

She was talking about a small park, but she couldn't explain clearly when she was in a hurry.

Cheng Xiaolin quickly coaxed her: "Mengmeng, we are in the car now. When we return to grandma's house later, there will be a big orchard. It is blooming now, and it is beautiful."

"Really?" Mengmeng blinked and looked at her mother expectantly.

Cheng Xiaolin nodded quickly: "Really, mom promises."

Cao Shujie drove all the way, listening to his mother-in-law talking nonsense in the back seat. He was not tired at all.

Have some food at the expressway service area along the way, rest for an hour, and then continue on the road.

It wasn't until about 4 p.m. that I got off the highway.

Mengmeng became active again after taking a nap. She said she did not want to sit in the car seat and had to let her mother hold her.

But not long after, she felt uncomfortable in her mother's arms again, and she had to sit side by side with her mother on the seat.

If Cheng Xiaolin hadn't stopped her, she would still have wanted to stand on her seat. At this time, Cheng Xiaolin felt tired.

"Dad, where's grandma?" Mengmeng couldn't sit still anymore. She wanted to get out of the car, but she reached out to pull the door handle regardless of the car still running.

Cheng Xiaolin was so frightened that she hugged her quickly, raised her hand and twisted her butt hard twice, but Mengmeng didn't feel any pain at all and even smiled proudly.

"Mengmeng, if you are naughty again, I will beat you up." Cheng Xiaolin was very angry.

Mengmeng is good at everything but disobedient.

After being frightened by her mother, Mengmeng started to roll around and threw herself on her mother's lap. She didn't care that she was still in the car. She hugged her mother's arm and swayed back and forth.

After a while, she turned over and lay on her mother's lap again, raising her little head and raising her little arms to greet her mother.

While doing it, he shouted: "Mom, mom..."

As if she was wronged.

Cheng Xiaolin was so angry that her stomach ached. She said to Cao Shujie, who was driving in front of her, "Husband, look at your daughter, she's annoying me to death."

"I really shouldn't have wanted her in the first place, just keep her to make people angry." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie glanced in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but want to laugh.

Fortunately, his car has a length of 5 meters and a wheelbase of 2870 meters. The rear space is large enough for the two of them, otherwise there would be no room for his daughter to roll around.

More than half an hour later, the car drove into a village at the foot of the mountain.

This is Cao Shujie’s hometown, Caojiazhuang, a village famous for its kiwi and apple cultivation.

Before the car stopped, Mengmeng knelt on her mother's lap and looked out of the car window. Suddenly she saw a white-haired puppy running past. She was startled and shouted: "Mom, look, Small dog."

"Hey, Mengmeng, are you annoyed?" Cheng Xiaolin was going crazy.

Cao Shujie, who was driving, burst out laughing.

When he saw his mother Wang Yuelan, an old face immediately appeared in Cao Shujie's memory.

Every time when he came back during the holidays and was about to leave, he could see in the rearview mirror that his mother had been standing at the gate watching from afar without moving...

This time he is back and never leaves again!
