Chapter 177 Cheng Xiaolin is preparing to make a video (500.01 million)
, monthly ticket, recommended ticket
"Are you giving up?" Cao Shujie was curious, but in his impression, Cao Zhen was not the kind of person who would give up when encountering a slight setback.
The next moment I heard Cao Zhen say: "Give up! After I came back to report my work this time, my uncle came to me alone again and contracted another 2,000 acres of land, making up 5,000 acres."
"I'm afraid that if I don't manage it well, things will get messed up when the time comes," Cao Zhen said.
But Cao Shujie shook his head and said, "Cao Zhen, to be honest, I am very confident in your management ability. You will be fine."
In the final analysis, management is about managing people, and Cao Zhen is really not bad at this aspect.
Cao Shujie said: "I am worried that after you get married, you will stay there and never come back."
Thinking about the distance between the two places, he said: "That's nearly four thousand kilometers. If you stay there, we brothers may not see each other again in the next few years. Am I right?"
"If you say that, I don't even want to go." Cao Zhen stretched out his hand and gave him a fist.
He said: "Patiguli asked me if our area is suitable for opening a Xinjiang Hotel, and asked me to find a suitable place for her."
"So I also told my uncle that I will come back when the cotton planting over there is on track, and then the company will send other people there." Cao Zhen said with a smile.
The smile on his face was particularly bright, and Cao Shujie also smiled.
But to be honest, just listen to these words, Cao Shujie has no confidence.
Feelings sometimes make people very stupid.
Regardless of what you say now, who can tell clearly what will happen in the future!
When he came down from the mountain and returned home, Cheng Xiaolin pulled him aside and said to him mysteriously: "Shujie, do you remember the cat from last night?"
"What cat?" Cao Shujie was thinking about sending little Cao Zhen at the moment and didn't think of it.
Cheng Xiaolin slapped him on the back and reminded him: "It's the cat Mengmeng mentioned."
It was about his daughter, so Cao Shujie immediately came to his senses: "Did you watch the replay? Is there that cat on the glass?"
At this mention, the expression on Cheng Xiaolin's face was particularly complicated. She said a little frustrated: "I didn't see anything, but Mengmeng still said it was. I looked at the information on the Internet, and some people said it was."
"Shujie, there are rumors on the Internet that there will be a big explosion on earth this year. Isn't it true?"
Looking at his wife's frightened look, Cao Shujie didn't even bother to complain about her: "Don't worry, I won't dare to say it for a long time. You will have no problem living for another 10 years."
"Go away, I won't live to be 40 years old." Cheng Xiaolin's attention was diverted again, and she and her husband discussed this issue seriously.
Cao Shujie wanted to say: "Oh, woman!"
…
On the morning of the second day of the second grade, Cao Shujie loaded the things he had prepared in advance into the car. He watched his wife get into the car with Mengmeng in her arms, and after greeting his grandfather and parents, they were ready to leave for Dayao Town, Anwu County.
Chengjiapo.
This time it went by no different than usual.
Along the way, her cute little mouth kept talking non-stop. She would also lift her bib from time to time and say to Cao Shujie: "Dad, look, mom said it can hold a lot of things."
Cao Shujie looked at his wife through the reflector in the car, dumbfounded.
"Yeah, Mengmeng remember to kowtow to your grandpa and grandma a few more times when the time comes, and be sure to ask for big red envelopes for them, okay?" Cao Shujie said to his daughter.
Mengmeng nodded seriously: "Dad, I remember it."
"What a good boy." Cao Shujie had a wicked smile on his face.
He said: "Mengmeng, don't let your uncle go either, you know."
Cheng Xiaolin really wanted to kick him, what kind of thinking was this.
She said: "As if you don't give it?"
"Hey, we are thick-skinned, so what can we do if we don't give it to you?" Cao Shujie said.
Cheng Xiaolin didn't reply to her, and looked at the bare tree trunks passing by outside the window. She said: "Shujie, spring will begin in 11 days. After a while, these trees will sprout new buds. By then, the trees in the orchard will bloom."
The flowers should be blooming too, right?”
"Almost, I think it must be very beautiful." Cao Shujie also wanted to see that scene earlier.
"Well!" Cheng Xiaolin thought about it: "I saw that many people are taking videos on the Internet now. I thought that after the Chinese New Year, I would be less busy. I would also take a few videos and upload the beautiful scenery of our orchard to the Internet.
Let’s see if it can attract people.”
Cao Shujie did not object to this at all.
This was something the couple had discussed long ago.
His wife still has some talent in this area. When she was working as a preschool teacher in a kindergarten in Beijing, she was responsible for organizing activities in the kindergarten, shooting videos, and editing later.
Recording the beautiful scenery in the orchard in the form of a video and uploading it to the Internet can be regarded as a promotion for their orchard.
After all, their orchards cannot only supply Qingshi Town or Pingyuan County. The market in this area is too small, and they have to target a larger market.
"Shujie, I think our family will be better this year." Cheng Xiaolin smiled, she was convinced of this.
Cao Shujie drove the car steadily. When his wife said this, he also nodded: "Of course, wife, just watch. Our family will get better year by year from now on."
He drove away from the boundaries of Pingyuan County and headed towards Anwu County.
Along the way, there were quite a few people visiting relatives or going out for fun, and there was a lot of traffic on the street.
An experienced driver like Cao Shujie did not dare to take it lightly. He carefully observed the driving conditions on the left and right.
As an old driver, he has rich experience and strong adaptability, but it is scary for newbies to be unable to tolerate it.
He was fine, but three cars in front of him were hit together. Looking at the parts scattered on the scene, it looked quite serious.
A traffic policeman was handling the accident at the scene, directing traffic and evacuating crowded vehicles. When Cao Shujie passed by, he glanced over there, but did not see the specific situation clearly.
Cheng Xiaolin was a little worried. She said, "Just drive slowly, don't be in a hurry."
"Well, I'm not very fast either." Cao Shujie looked at the constant speed of more than 40 yards and couldn't move faster even if he wanted to.
Fortunately, they arrived at Chengjiapo smoothly.
Cao Shujie stopped the car and waited for his wife to put on Mengmeng's coat. Before he opened the door and got out of the car, his brother-in-law Cheng Yunping ran over and stood outside the car and shouted: "Brother-in-law, sister, you are here. Good luck on the road."
.”
Cao Shujie saw that his wife had already put on Mengmeng's coat, and then opened the door and got out of the car: "Yunping, it went very smoothly, but there were a lot of cars on the road, so I couldn't pick up the speed, which wasted time."
"Why didn't you go to Dongdong's grandma's house?" Cao Shujie was puzzled.
Cheng Yunping said somewhat honestly: "Brother-in-law, didn't you and my sister come here today? We will go to Yingying's house tomorrow. Her house is just ten minutes away on an electric bike."
Liu Yingying came out quickly at this time and shouted at the gate: "Brother-in-law, sister, why don't you come in the house?"
The next moment, the person had already walked to the car.
"Come right now!" Cao Shujie responded.
……………………
Cheng Xiaolin also brought a set of cosmetics to his sister-in-law. The price is not high, but it is not cheap either.
In addition, there are also many gift boxes of tobacco and alcohol for the elderly, as well as snacks and toys for my nephew Dongdong.
When Cheng Xiaolin went home to get things, when she saw her mother, she pointed to two boxes of milk and one box of wine and said, "Mom, my mother-in-law asked me to bring these to you."
Li Xiaojuan looked at her daughter and smiled.
Cao Shujie came here not once or twice, but he showed no politeness when he came over. He just went to talk to his father-in-law consciously, just like when he went back to his own home.
Liu Yingying also winked to her husband again and again, asking him to chat with her brother-in-law, but Cheng Yunping felt that she and her brother-in-law could not talk together.
He couldn't talk to him about planting.
He was even more confused when it came to the topic of breeding, and even his father despised him for being ignorant and unskilled.
Later, Liu Yingying was a little angry and whispered beside her husband: "Even if you don't know anything, just listen to the head office."
Cheng Yunping then went over and became a tea server.
During this period, Cheng Rengui spent a lot of time learning breeding techniques and asked many experienced people for advice. Later, he even took his son-in-law to see his newly built cattle pen.
Just to the west of this house, Cheng Rengui built a rectangular area surrounded by wood, with several wooden stakes in the middle and several stone troughs placed underground around it.
Many cattle farmers in the countryside do this, and Cao Shujie thinks there is no problem.
Cheng Rengui said enthusiastically: "I'm ready. I'm just waiting for the cattle to be delivered after the New Year. I'll be ready to start work here."
"When I'm not busy, I can still do odd jobs nearby and earn more money." Cheng Rengui has a good plan and is very pragmatic.
Cao Shujie listened to his father-in-law's careful planning and saw the pure smile on his weather-beaten face, and was happy for him.
"Dad, you don't have to be burdened or stressed. If you have any questions, just call me." Cao Shujie patted his chest and gave his father-in-law a guarantee.
"Okay, I used to herd sheep and feed cows for my family when I was a child, so it's not a big problem." Cheng Rengui talked about the things he did when he was a child. The more he talked about it, the more excited he became. He seemed to be a person who was very willing to talk.
.
Cao Shujie could tell that his father-in-law was subtly convincing and comforting himself in this way.
Seeing his brother-in-law standing not far behind, Cao Shujie waved to him: "Yunping, come here."
"Brother-in-law, are you looking for me?" Cheng Yunping ran over and asked with a smile.
Cao Shujie nodded and asked him: "Yunping, when will you go to work again?"
"Yingying and I plan to leave after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year and leave on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year." Cheng Yunping said: "We will start classes on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, so we will go there one day in advance to clean up the place where we live."
"Yeah, that's okay." Cao Shujie thought about it and said to him: "Read more books after you go out. Don't just spend your time on boring things. In addition, you have to think about your long-term plan. You can't just live one day at a time. You will be confused.
Just live your life."
"Brother-in-law, you are right, I am also thinking about this matter."
Cheng Yunping said: "Yingying and I have also discussed that we can't let Dongdong stay at home and ignore him."
Hearing that his brother-in-law had such thoughts, Cao Shujie didn't care about anything else.
At noon, Cheng Rengui, Cao Shujie and Cheng Yunping got together to celebrate the New Year. It would be really hard for him, the son-in-law, if he didn't drink some.
After Cao Shujie drank a glass of wine, he returned to his father-in-law Cheng Rengui and said, "Dad, I will get you a box of Maotai during the Chinese New Year next year."
Cheng Rengui knew Maotai. Because of this, he said: "It's so expensive and tastes the same. Why buy that wine?"
Cao Shujie smiled. His father-in-law and his father were both the same people. They could endure hardships and earn money, but they were reluctant to spend money.
He said: "Dad, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will take care of it."
When Cheng Xiaolin next to her heard this, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
When Liu Yingying heard this in her heart, she also winked at her husband Cheng Yunping, but Cheng Yunping pretended not to see it and listened to her father and brother-in-law's conversation seriously. When she saw that there was less water in their father and brother-in-law's teacups, he
Just pick up the pot and pour water.
Seeing the bottom of the wine glass, he took the bottle and poured wine.
Mengmeng and her little cousin Dongdong were picking at the meat in their bowls, and the two little people started competing to see who could eat faster.
It seems to be like this every time I come here.
"You two, eat slowly, don't choke." Li Xiaojuan watched her grandson and granddaughter eating, feeling very happy.
When I went back in the afternoon, it was Cheng Xiaolin who drove.
When they were about to leave, Li Xiaojuan packed them a box of fruits, a box of juice, and a box of pure milk, saying that she was taking them back to Cao Shujie's grandfather and parents.
At that moment, the smile on Cheng Xiaolin's face was bright. It didn't matter how many things she had. What mattered most was her heart.
Every time they came over, her mother-in-law would ask her to bring money and things. If things continued like this, she would feel a lot of pressure.
"Dad, Mom, let's go." Cheng Xiaolin said to his parents.
Li Xiaojuan kept telling her: "You drive less, drive slower on the road, and call me when you get home."
"Mom, I drive very steadily, okay!" Cheng Xiaolin refuted her mother.
There were still a lot of cars on the road, and Cao Shujie also told his wife: "We are not in a hurry to get home, just drive slowly."
"I know, you don't need to tell me!" Cheng Xiaolin tightened her grip on the steering wheel and drove the car steadily. While Cao Shujie and Mengmeng were laughing and joking, Cheng Xiaolin spent almost two hours driving the car steadily.
Returned to Caojiazhuang.
In the next two days, Cao Shujie drove his parents, wife and children to visit two uncles' houses, and also visited other cousins. During this process, Cao Shujie did not express himself too much, just like in previous years.
, chatting about daily life with relatives and friends.
In this constant busyness, it’s the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
At this time, the migrant workers who came back from abroad to celebrate the New Year and enjoyed the quiet time began to pack their luggage again, said goodbye to their parents, wives and children, and embarked on a new journey.
It was at this time that many people in Caojiazhuang began to envy Cao Shujie. He didn't have to go out, he could stay at home with his parents and children, he didn't have to bear all the pressure caused by work, and he could still make money, and he could make a little money.
There are quite a few...
But most of his peers, even those a little older than him, don't have Cao Shujie's courage. They don't think they can make money at home.
This morning, Cao Shujie was walking his dog down the dam. He was thinking about what to do today when his cell phone in his trouser pocket vibrated crazily.
Cao Shujie took it out and saw that it was a call from Cao Shuxu.
As soon as he saw this name, Cao Shujie thought of the 'big man' next to him. He never expected that one of his relatives and friends would follow Zhang Xiaolong.
"Brother Xu, is something wrong?" Cao Shujie asked.
Cao Shuxu asked him: "Shujie, are you free today? Let's call Cao Zhen and the others and have a drink together."
He said: "I will leave tomorrow, and I won't be back until the end of the year."
"Brother Xu, no problem. I'll call them and I'll find you soon." Cao Shujie also wanted to chat with him and listen to his stories about Penguin.
For people like Cao Shujie who are not engaged in the Internet, he always feels that IT is separated by a mysterious veil.
Cao Shujie doesn't want to invest or anything like that. What can he do with the little money he has? But it's good to hear Cao Shuxu talk about what he saw and heard in Penguin.
Cao Shujie called several of them, but who knew that Cao Fei left by car early in the morning.
Cao Fei will report to the Five-Star Department Store in Yiling City this afternoon and will officially start working in the city tomorrow.
Cao Shuyang and Cao Shulun also returned to their posts to report.
Only Cao Tiemin and Cao Zhen are left in Caojiazhuang, who are going to report to Mingbo Textile Co., Ltd. in Pingyuan County tomorrow.
Cao Shujie picked up his things and came to the door of Cao Zhen's house, where he met Cao Zhen and Cao Tiemin, and then walked together to Cao Shuxu's house.
At this time, the three of them felt a little sad.
When we had a gathering on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we were discussing the next gathering, and maybe not all the people would be able to gather.
But I didn't expect that the original discussion would be fulfilled 4 days later.
"What did I say? Cao Zhen, please discuss it with your girlfriend when you go back and get married as soon as possible. Then we brothers can use your happy event to get together again." Cao Shujie teased him.
Hearing what Cao Shujie said, Cao Zhen did not refute this time. He thought about it seriously and said, "Okay, I will discuss it with Patiguli when I get back and hold a romantic wedding in your orchard.
.”
"No problem. If you ask me to wait until the strawberries are ripe in March and April, or the kiwis are ripe in August, and my flowers are in full bloom all over the mountains and fields, I will celebrate you. Isn't it wonderful to think about it?"
When Cao Zhen heard his description, he was very yearning for it. He said, "As you can tell, I want to get married as soon as possible."
"What are you still hesitating about? What do you think you still lack?" Cao Shujie patted his chest, as if I don't need money, and I will make it up to you as soon as you tell me.
The three people chatted happily, diluting the sadness of parting due to incomplete human beings, and came to Cao Shuxu's house.
When Cao Shuxu saw the three of them alone, he asked them: "Shujie, where are the three brothers?"
"Brother Xu, they have all gone to work. It seems that we can only get together with them next year." Cao Shujie said.
"I've already left. I also thought that it's not too late on the fifth day of the lunar month. If I had known this earlier, I would have arrived two days earlier." Cao Shuxu was filled with emotion, and then said: "Come in, let's have a good chat."
