The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Seeing that the two of them were going to immerse themselves in research again, Cao Shujie took the lead and called them to eat.

"Don't work so hard. When the laboratory is built and all the equipment is in place, there will be plenty of work for you to do." Cao Shujie grabbed Fu Xianghui and Tong Jiayi.

I took them to have a meal at the Fuxing Hotel in front.

During the meal, the two of them were still talking to Cao Shujie about their various whims and whims.

At this time, Cao Shujie would also express his thoughts and discuss them with them.

Cao Shujie must admit that he really likes this atmosphere.

He is also a research fanatic, otherwise he would not have made something like a 'nutrient solution'.

In addition, the first-generation nutrient solution was originally created by Cao Shujie, and some of his fantastic ideas gave Fu Xianghui and Tong Jiayi great reference value.

Deriving the second-generation nutrient solution from the simulated state is also much smoother.

However, the second-generation nutrient solution produced by Cao Shujie was only an incomplete version. In recent years, because he did not have the relevant equipment, he almost never touched it again.

When three people were discussing together, every time an idea was proposed, he would get stuck and perform various simulation calculations in his mind.

The three of them were so obsessed with discussing these things that the meal took a little too long.

The waiter knew that Boss Cao Shujie was entertaining guests, and no one came to disturb them during the banquet.

While waiting for Cao Shujie and the other three to leave, the waiter went in to clear away the plates. It was almost 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Because he was drunk, Cao Shujie did not drive.

He called Song Baoming again and asked him to drive to Fuxing Hotel.

He separated from Fu Xianghui and Tong Jiayi and strolled to Qingshi Town Central Primary School alone.

Mengmeng came out of school and saw her father standing at the school gate. She ran directly towards him, threw her schoolbag to him, turned around and looked for the car, but couldn't find it: "Dad, where is your car? It's so hot that it kills me." Come on, get in the car and blow on the air conditioner."

It’s extremely hot in June, especially around 4pm, and it’s also stuffy.

Cao Shujie said to her: "The car is at the entrance of the hotel. Let's wait here. Your uncle Song will drive over soon."

Mengmeng came close to her father, smelled the smell of alcohol on his body, and instantly understood. She pointed at Cao Shujie with a sly look and said, "Dad, do you dare not drive because you have been drinking?"

It was as if she had discovered her father's little secret, and she seemed to be threatening him: If you don't do me any favors, I will expose you.

"Dad was talking to people about things and didn't drink much." Cao Shujie didn't hide anything from her, and it wasn't a big deal.

As he was talking, Song Baoming drove over in his Range Rover.

After the car stopped beside him, Cao Shujie opened the back door first and let Mengmeng get in. Then he sat in the front seat and said, "Old Song, take me back to Caojiazhuang."

Song Baoming nodded and said nothing more.

On the way, Mengmeng reminded her father that their school would be out for summer vacation soon.

Cao Shujie really didn't want to talk to her, but he also knew that he wouldn't have to tell her again. This girl could nag her all the way home: "Don't worry, Mengmeng. I told your mother a long time ago that she will take you with her after your vacation." Go out and play.”

After finishing speaking, Cao Shujie said to Song Baoming: "Old Song, after Mengmeng goes on summer vacation next month, you can drive the original GL8 and take my parents and their three mothers out for a spin."

"Okay!" Song Baoming agreed without any hesitation.

Back at Caojiazhuang, Mengmeng said to Cao Shujie and Song Baoming: "Goodbye, dad, and goodbye, uncle Song."

After saying that, she pushed open the car door, jumped out, and ran towards home.

"This kid doesn't look like a girl at all." Cao Shujie complained.

Song Baoming smiled and said nothing.

…

"Oh!" When Daha saw Cao Shujie coming in, he stood up on his two hind legs and spread his teeth and claws in the air with his two front legs.

"Daha, what do you want to do?" Cao Shujie leaned over and touched its head.

Daha's dog's head was also twisting back and forth on Cao Shujie's neck, looking particularly intimate.

Grandpa Cao Zhenghu was cooling off under the shade of the trees in the yard, fanning himself back and forth with a cattail leaf fan in his hand, which made him feel particularly comfortable.

He watched his grandson playing with Daha and laughed too.

After a while, Cao Zhenghu called him: "Shujie, come here."

After Cao Shujie heard this, he went to wash his hands first, then walked to his grandfather and rubbed his shoulders and arms, but as soon as he put his hands on his, he felt that his grandfather's body was full of bones.

Really skinny, this made Cao Shujie feel bad, and his grandfather lost a lot of weight.

"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Cao Shujie asked him.

Cao Zhenghu said: "Isn't the school about to go on summer vacation?"

"Yes, it will be released next month. Mengmeng will be released a little early. Their school will release it on the 5th." Cao Shujie told him.

"Junior high school and high school may be a little later, around the 15th." Cao Shujie said.

In fact, he wasn't sure.

Cao Zhenghu nodded and said to his grandson: "Shujie, then call your brothers and tell them that when Yichuan and Yixin go on summer vacation, ask them to come back and stay for two days."

"Oh, okay, I'll tell them." Cao Shujie agreed.

This was about a WeChat video. Cao Shujie didn’t hesitate and called his cousin Cao Shubin for a WeChat video chat in front of his grandfather. After his elder brother’s profile picture appeared on his phone, Cao Shujie said to him: “Brother, grandpa misses you. , I asked you to wait for Yichuan to go on summer vacation and come back for two days. "

"Okay, I'll wait until Yichuan has summer vacation and then go back." Cao Shubin agreed.

The fruit trees he planted last year will bear fruit next year at the earliest, so he is not busy during this period.

And his son will take the college entrance examination next year. He will be very busy after entering the third year of high school next semester, and he will have fewer opportunities to go back then.

Cao Shujie also asked his eldest cousin to chat with his grandfather for a while before sending a video to his second cousin Cao Shuxin and saying the same thing.

The second brother Cao Shuxin also agreed very happily.

"Grandpa, we will definitely go back when Yixin has a vacation." Cao Shuxin said to his grandfather.

Looking at his grandfather's thin cheeks, Cao Shuxin felt bad.

Besides, he also wanted to go back to see his old father Cao Jianlin.

They got together during the Chinese New Year, but after only a few months of not seeing each other, he suddenly realized that these older generations were very old.

After hanging up the video chat with his cousin, Cao Shujie didn't rush into the house. He chatted with his grandfather outside for a while and asked his grandfather if he wanted to go out and play together next month?

"Shujie, with my health, I'm exhausted after running a few steps." Cao Zhenghu said.

He knew that he was already 89 years old this year, so he should not cause trouble for the children.

Cao Shujie was a little disappointed when he heard his grandfather's refusal, but he didn't say much.

Grandpa didn't go out to play with them much in the past two years because of his health.

He usually stayed at home and occasionally went out to chat with his old friends.

But as the elderly people in the village passed away one after another in the past two years, there were fewer and fewer old friends who could talk to Grandpa.

Until now, Grandpa almost never went out.

This situation is not good, but Cao Shujie has no solution now.

When Grandpa was not in good health before, he could take Grandpa to seek medical treatment and take Grandpa to see Dr. Lu, but even Dr. Lu has passed away...

To be disrespectful, Grandpa Cao Zhenghu is actually living longer now than Cao Shujie remembered in his previous life.

Cao Shujie didn't understand whether this was a disguised way of helping his grandfather to change his fate, but because of his limited ability, Cao Shujie wanted his grandfather to live over 100 years old, but it was difficult to do so in practice.

Wang Yuelan came in from outside holding her grandson's hand. Seeing her son and the old man chatting in the yard, Wang Yuelan greeted them.

When Cao Yirui saw his father, he broke free from his grandmother's hand and ran towards his father, yelling for Cao Shujie to hug him.

"Ruirui, you are more than 30 pounds, I can't hold you." Cao Shujie refused.

But the little guy disagreed, and stretched out his hands and kept wanting his father to hold him.

"You are really an ancestor." Cao Shujie bent down and picked up his son. His arms obviously fell down, and he really felt that his son had grown meat.

Cao Zhenghu looked at the little guy, and he also laughed happily.

With four generations living under one roof, a little grandson and a little granddaughter around him, Cao Zhenghu felt that his life was worth living.

Wang Yuelan put her grandson down and went to the kitchen to finish cooking.

Cao Shujie watched his son outside and played with him to prevent him from going into the house to disturb his sister's homework.

Chatting with his grandfather, time passed quickly.

His wife came back on an electric bike at dusk.

Seeing the three people in the yard, she called "Grandpa" and called her son over.

"Shujie, Mr. Xu from Quancheng will come to take the cattle in two days. Did he tell you?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her husband.

Cao Shujie nodded: "I told you that when the time comes, just weigh them and leave 200 heads for the Farmhouse Restaurant and Xinjiang Restaurant."

"Okay, I'll tell them and keep them in advance." Cheng Xiaolin nodded.

From the beginning, their family would leave a part of the cattle for the Farmhouse Restaurant and Xinjiang Restaurant.

"Did you tell me how much this time?" Cheng Xiaolin didn't know about this.

Hearing her husband say that it was still sold at 18.5 yuan, Cheng Xiaolin didn't ask any more questions.

In fact, the normal market price of ordinary beef cattle has fallen to about 12 yuan, and the price they sell is still relatively strong.

Few people know the selling price of their beef cattle.

Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin are honest and kind-hearted, but that doesn't mean they are stupid.

Just like they have diversified their investments, only Cao Shujie himself really knows all the investments.

Even his wife only knows part of it and doesn't know the details.

Cao Shujie wanted to tell his wife in detail, but Cheng Xiaolin was too bothered and retorted him with one sentence.

When Wang Yuelan called them to have dinner, Cao Shujie helped his grandfather into the house.

But grandpa didn't eat much at night, only two eggs.

When resting at night, Cheng Xiaolin told Cao Shujie that grandpa's condition was not right.

Cao Shujie also understood this, but Cao Shujie never admitted it directly.

In this regard, Cao Shujie is really not as free and easy as his grandfather, and he can see it.

He also told his wife: "Grandpa just asked me to call my eldest brother and second brother and ask them to wait for Yixin and Yichuan to come back for a reunion after the summer vacation."

After that, Cao Shujie was silent.

Cheng Xiaolin was not in a good mood either.

It's not that they think too badly, but they know some things in their hearts.

"Shujie, you have tried your best." Cheng Xiaolin advised him.

Cao Shujie lay down slowly.

After seeing this, Cheng Xiaolin wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it. In the end, she hugged her husband from behind and slept against his back.

That night, Cao Shujie didn't even have a dream and slept until dawn.

The next morning, when he took Mengmeng to Qingshi Town, Cao Shujie held a meeting with all the company's managers and told them that he would spend less time in the company in the future because of some personal matters.

No one cared about the boss's words.

The boss was often not in the company, and they were used to it.

But they all understood that the boss's absence did not mean that they could have fun.

When the company held a general meeting after the Spring Festival this year, Cao Shujie had punished a group of people and even fired several managers. The department managers present did not think that they could sit back and relax.

On the contrary, in order to make themselves stay here more secure, each department manager tried their best and dared not make any mistakes.

Not only that, they even thought that they should perform better when the boss was not there.

After the meeting, Cao Shujie held a separate meeting with Fu Xianghui and Tong Jiayi to discuss the nutrient solution with them.

Cao Shujie also told Fu Xianghui to keep an eye on the progress of the laboratory construction.

This is the part that Fu Xianghui specifically mentioned to Cao Shujie when he was chatting.

"The kiwis in the orchard will be ripe in a while, you can pick some and taste them." Cao Shujie told them.

Fu Xianghui and Tong Jiayi nodded repeatedly.

Even Tong Jiayi already knew that the fruit trees in Cao Shujie's orchard had used the first generation of nutrient solution, and they really wanted to experience the difference between the fruit that had used the nutrient solution and the fruit that had not been used.

Tong Jiayi even planned to take half of his time every day to go to Cao Shujie's orchard to keep an eye on the growth of these fruit trees at close range.

From the most intuitive point of view, these fruit trees in Cao Shujie's orchard are growing stronger, and the fruit maturity cycle is indeed shorter than that of normal fruit trees.

Other kiwis will not mature until mid-August, but the fruit on Cao Shujie's side is already the size of an egg. This difference is huge, and people who know the business will know that there is a problem at a glance.

After arranging the work at hand, Cao Shujie accompanied Mengmeng to eat in the factory every noon, waited for her to finish her lunch break and then sent her back to school, and then Cao Shujie went home directly.

Cao Shujie's behavior change was very obvious, even Cao Jianguo, who was setting up a stall at the door, noticed something unusual, and he even asked his son if there was anything wrong.

But Cao Shujie told him that there was nothing, and asked him to be at ease.

"You kid, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't keep it to yourself." Cao Jianguo said to his son.

"Okay!" Cao Shujie agreed, but still didn't say it. (End of this chapter)
