The leisurely life of a reborn dad

Early the next morning, Li Jiagan came with a slaughtered sheep.

When I entered the door, I greeted Cao Jianguo who was sweeping the floor: "Brother Jianguo, where are you working?"

"I have nothing to do. Clean the house. Jia Gen, please go sit in the house and smoke a cigarette." Cao Jianguo quickly swept away the fallen leaves, put down the broom and pulled Li Jiagan into the house.

Li Jiagan pointed to the slaughtered mutton placed on the plastic sheet in the electric tricycle. It looked a little bloody. He asked: "Brother Jianguo, the eldest son of your family bought it..."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Jianguo nodded and said, "Shujie bought it. He told me about it yesterday. Brother Jiagen, let me call him."

There was no need to shout. Cao Shujie came out of the house and saw Li Jiagan. He smiled and shouted: "Uncle Li, please excuse me."

"Hey, this is what I do, and this is the money I earn. What's the trouble?" Li Jiagan was very happy. He took out a list from his trouser pocket: "This wool weighs 102.5 kilograms. Let's calculate it as 102 kilograms. Take away the skin and other inedible things, and here is the meat, bones, and haggis that are left.”

"The total is 1,040 yuan and 4 cents. Please give me 1,000 yuan." Li Jiagan said proactively.

This sheep doesn't make any money, but sometimes some things are more important than money.

Cao Shujie also understood this. He happily handed the money to Li Jiagan and wanted to keep him at home for dinner.

But Li Jiagan kept saying that he was still busy today and had to go to the market tomorrow.

Hearing what he said, Cao Jianguo and Cao Shujie, father and son, didn't stay long. When Li Jiagan was about to leave, Cao Shujie went to the south room to get two bottles of good wine and asked Li Jiogen to take it back and drink it slowly.

These two bottles of wine were not cheap at first glance. After all, he made back the difference.

Li Jiagan didn't want it, so Cao Shujie said, "Uncle Li, take it with me. I'll reserve some land and raise some cattle and sheep after the clearing is done. I'll need your help with a lot of things then!"

After Li Jiagan heard what he said, he agreed and said that if you need anything, just come to him.

…

After Cheng Xiaolin and Mengmeng got up, they came out of the bedroom and saw her husband and father-in-law washing meat in the yard.

No need to ask anything about the smell of sheep, Mengmeng ran over to take a look out of curiosity.

Daha and Erha screamed crazily, instinctively wanting to take a bite of mutton.

Cao Jianguo threw all the uneatable food to the two brothers to eat slowly.

"Grandpa, what is this?" Mengmeng's little face was full of curiosity.

When Cao Jianguo saw his granddaughter, he was happy from the bottom of his heart and said with a smile: "This is mutton. It will be stewed later. It will be delicious. Mengmeng should eat more meat today."

"Oh, eat meat." Mengmeng nodded and shouted: "I want to eat meat, a lot of meat."

"Shujie, how much did you buy?" Cheng Xiaolin looked at such a big sheep and wondered if she could finish it.

"The wool sheep is 102 pounds, and the total cost is 1,000 yuan. It's cheap." Cao Shujie said.

But he deserves a beating for talking like that!

For those who work these days, the monthly salary is generally less than 2,000 yuan, let alone in the countryside.

A sheep has eaten someone else's for a month, what a waste of hair!

"When will Brother Zhen and the others come?" Cheng Xiaolin ignored him.

Cao Shujie chuckled: "You called me just now and said you were walking on the road. You should be there in half an hour at the latest."

"When they come, let's go to the Yellow River to catch some fish and have a meal?"

"Dad, I'm going too." Mengmeng shouted while jumping on her feet.

Cheng Xiaolin also wanted to go. She pointed to the mutton she was still packing and asked, "We are all going to the Yellow River. What should we do with this?"

"You can just go, I'll watch at home." Cao Jianguo said.

…

Cao Zhen, Cao Shuyang, Cao Shulun, Cao Fei and Cao Tiemin drove back in Cao Tiemin's van.

After entering Caojiazhuang, they first went home to put down their things, and finally gathered at Cao Shujie's house one after another.

Cao Zhen and Cao Shujie were the closest. When they came over, they saw him cooking a large pot on a tin bucket stove in the yard, with meat stewed in the pot.

Looking at the pot full of meat, Cao Zhen looked confused: "Shujie, how much meat did you make?"

"I bought a whole sheep. How about it? Is it enough for you to eat this time?"

"It's a thousand dollars, just us brothers, why are you so extravagant and wasteful." Cao Zhen felt different in his heart, but he was still unforgiving with his words.

Cao Shujie knew his temper and didn't even bother to talk about him.

When Cao Jianguo came out of the house, Cao Zhen hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, I just heard my mother say that you fell down when I got home, and Shujie, the bastard, didn't say anything to me, otherwise I would have come back to see you earlier. ”

"It's all good, don't think too much, just work hard outside and make money." Cao Jianguo said with a smile.

Not long after, Cao Shuyang, Cao Shulun, Cao Fei, and Cao Tiemin all came over. They saw that the water in the big pot had begun to roll. Looking at the meat in the pot, there was a layer of foam on the water. The water would need to be replaced later. cook.

Cao Shuyang slapped Cao Shujie directly on the back: "Fuck, you will definitely enjoy the meal this time."

"Shu Yang, if that doesn't work, you can come back to farm and enjoy spicy food every day like me." Cao Shujie teased him.

Cao Shuyang didn't answer the call directly. He worked at a highway toll station. The salary was not very high, but the benefits were good!

Besides, the expressway is also undergoing reform and will soon become an enterprise system. He heard that a lot of money will be added, which he is not willing to throw away.

Knowing that Cao Shujie's income from growing fruits in the contracted mountain land was much higher than his own, when Cao Shuyang thought about having to go to the fields to tend the fruit trees in such a hot day, he felt conflicted and couldn't do the job.

But Cao Fei said: "If my son hadn't gone to school, I would have come back to cover the land and grow fruits."

"Okay, Cao Fei, you think growing fruits is really that easy. Why didn't you look at how much money Shujie invested in the early stage?" Cao Tiemin shouted, and he said: "When I came home just now, my mother said that Shujie Five to six million yuan was invested in the early stage.”

"Really?" He finally asked, looking at Cao Shujie.

Cao Shujie smiled but said nothing.

But seeing his expression, the brothers knew it was just a lot more, so no one mentioned going home to plant fruit trees.

There is no problem if you want to make this money, but you have to be prepared to invest money in it. Whether you can make it back in the end is still open to question.

"Don't you still want to catch fish? Go ahead and have a drink and eat meat when you come back later." Cao Jianguo said to them.

Mengmeng couldn't stay any longer. When she saw her grandfather speaking, she also shouted: "Dad, let's go!"

"Okay, okay, let's go now." Cao Shujie had a headache.

Cao Zhen and the others were also a little impatient.

After Cao Shujie took the poke net and told his parents, he called his wife and children to go out together.

Only then did I notice that there was an electric tricycle parked at the door. There were several large poke nets in the carriage. They were all prepared.

Two tricycles, plus an electric car, carried seven people, one large and one small, towards the Yellow River.

Daha and Erha had mutton to eat today, so they didn't bother to follow their little master out to have fun.

"Honey, you can watch Mengmeng on the shore later, and then look at the fish we caught." Cao Shujie said to his wife on the way.

Cheng Xiaolin also knew that the water in the Yellow River was very big now, and she was afraid that something might happen to Mengmeng, so she happily agreed.
