Chapter 199 You naughty kid, don’t blame others (4000)
When Lian Fengying first learned that her son's wedding would be held in Cao Shujie's orchard, she disagreed and felt that it would cause a lot of trouble to Cao Shujie.
But Cao Zhen didn't think so, and told his mother that he had already discussed it with Cao Shujie, and asked his mother to inform her relatives without worry. He also asked his mother to contact the chef who specializes in wedding banquets and set up the stove in advance on the turning platform in front of Cao Shujie's orchard.
.
As the time approached, Lian Fengying went to Cao Shujie to discuss how to take this route after bringing her daughter-in-law back.
Unknowingly, these elders subconsciously regarded Cao Shujie as someone who could talk and decide things.
"Auntie, look at what's missing, and tell me that such a big thing as Brother Zhen's marriage must be handled openly." Cao Shujie expressed his stance.
Lian Fengying waved her hand: "It's nothing, I'm ready."
"Shujie, I'm going to cause you a lot of trouble by holding a wedding in your orchard this time." Lian Fengying still felt a little embarrassed.
Cao Shujie said: "Auntie, you are so polite. Brother Zhen and I grew up playing together. When I was young, my parents were too busy to cook, so I often ate at your house..."
"That was more than 20 years ago." Lian Fengying said quickly.
But Cao Shujie said: "Auntie, you can't say that. Even if it happened 20 years ago, it has not expired!"
Lian Fengying was so amused by what Cao Shujie said. She said, "Okay, I won't be polite to you anymore. Brother Zhen and the others are coming back soon. I'll hurry back and clean up."
As she spoke, she looked helpless, but the smile on her face was particularly strong: "Getting married is really troublesome."
"Mom, I see you are happy!"
"Haha, after working hard all my life, I will only be tired for a few days anyway. I just have to grit my teeth and get through it."
Lian Fengying said before leaving: "In a few days, I will find someone to move the tables, chairs and benches up the mountain, and then find someone to set up a few stoves. When the work is done, I will clean up for you."
Cao Shujie nodded: "Auntie, no need. If you need my help, just ask."
He said: "I was afraid that there would be too many people coming by then, so I hired someone to build two more bathrooms."
There were originally one male and female bathroom above, but Cao Shujie considered that there were too many people at that time and the original two bathrooms were not enough, so he added two more.
Lian Fengying didn't expect Cao Shujie to think so carefully, she said thank you several times!
After Lian Fengying left, Cao Shujie continued to play with Mengmeng for a while.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Cao Shujie was preparing to go out.
Standing up, my eyes fell on the calendar hanging on the wall by the door. I looked carefully at the time, it was March 12th!
He couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, time flies so fast, it's already been a year."
It has been exactly one year since I came back on March 12 last year.
Unconsciously, too many things happened this year.
Cao Shujie's originally undisciplined temperament was constantly changing subtly under the influence of various events.
"Mengmeng, I'm going out for a walk, do you want to go out with me?" Cao Shujie called to her.
As soon as she heard that her father wanted to go out to play, Mengmeng was definitely willing. She put down the toys in her hands and ran over: "Dad, let's go, hurry up."
Cao Shujie was very puzzled when he heard his daughter's words and asked her: "Mengmeng, who did you learn this from?"
"Who did you learn it from?" Mengmeng didn't understand.
Cao Shujie imitated her: "Mengmeng, let's go, hurry up."
"This." Mengmeng scratched her chin with her little hand and said, "I learned it from Cao Bingbing and the others."
Cao Shujie knew who Cao Bingbing was and couldn't help complaining: "Mengmeng, you are so good and you don't want to learn from these nonsense."
"Dad, what do you mean?" Mengmeng was curious.
The father and daughter had already come out of the house and were walking on the street in the middle of Caojiazhuang.
When he sees someone, Cao Shujie will stop and say hello to them, asking Mengmeng to call "uncle, aunt, grandpa and grandma." In comparison, Mengmeng, who looks a little fleshy, is more likeable.
"Shujie, have you heard that Cao Zhengyin is back, but Cao Jiangang is not back? Hey." Cao Zhenglin had a bit of sarcasm on his face. Yes, he seemed to like this result.
"My grandpa Zhengyin is back?" Cao Shujie really didn't know about this.
Then I heard Cao Zhenglin nod and say: "He came back this morning, and there weren't many people around at that time. I happened to be out cutting grass to feed the sheep, and I saw him."
Having said that, it has been more than a week since they were taken away.
Cao Shujie nodded and said, "It seems that my Grandpa Zhengyin is fine. This is a good thing."
"Well, if you ask me, that's true. He's just in charge of bookkeeping and can't get anything else out of it. What does it have to do with him?" Cao Zhenglin said.
Cao Shujie was noncommittal about this matter.
He knew very well that if what happened to Cao Jiangang was true, Cao Zhengyin would definitely benefit from it.
When Cao Jiangang took the account, Cao Zhengyin would definitely keep records. Even if he asked Cao Zhengyin to do some tricks in order to keep it secret, there would be no trace of what he did on the books. Cao Jiangang would still have to give Cao Zhengyin some benefits.
No one’s bottom is clean, it’s just a matter of severity!
"I wonder how Uncle Jiangang is doing this time?" Cao Shujie seemed to be talking to himself.
After Cao Zhenglin heard this, he said: "What else can he do? He has been greedy for so much money, selling trees in the village, and various projects, but he has not reached out for any of them? If you ask me, I will give him the sentence he deserves, and he will have to give it a heavy sentence.
Otherwise he wouldn’t know the pain.”
Things are not that simple, and Cao Shujie is not naive enough to think that Cao Jiangang has no back-ups, but those have nothing to do with him, and he is not interested in knowing the outcome.
Just make your own money and live a good life as a family!
After saying goodbye to Cao Zhenglin, Cao Shujie took his daughter and walked south, wandering around. When he passed by the door of Cao Zhengyin's house, he saw many people walking towards his house, including people from the village committee and many familiar villagers.
, and I don’t know what they did in the past.
"Dad, what is that for?" Mengmeng asked, pointing to Cao Zhengyin's house.
She thought that with so many people going there, there might be something selling good stuff, so she wanted to go over and take a look.
But Cao Shujie told Mengmeng: "They are all going to see an old man. Let's not go there yet. Dad will take you to pick weeds, then steam them home and eat them with garlic paste. It's delicious."
"Okay, I like eating the most." As soon as Mengmeng heard about eating, her attention shifted very quickly.
After searching in the fields to the west for more than an hour, the father and daughter made a big harvest before the sun set.
When he returned home from outside, his wife was using her computer to download the videos and photos taken today.
When she saw Cao Shujie and Mengmeng coming in, she called them father and daughter over to take a look.
"Shujie, what do you think of my photo?" Cheng Xiaolin raised her chin slightly, with an expectant expression on her face, like a girl waiting to be praised.
Cao Shujie wanted to laugh in his heart. He walked over and looked carefully at the picture taken by his wife. It was a picture taken from the air by a drone in the orchard on the mountain.
It is from a bird's-eye view and covers most of the area below.
When you stand on the ground and shoot, you can only see one side in front of you, but when you shoot from the air, you can see more scenes that you can't usually see.
This was the third time that Cao Shujie noticed the panoramic photos of the more than 200 acres of mountainous land he rented through these aerial photos taken by his wife.
Viewed from a height, there are still ups and downs.
It’s already mid-March, and kiwi trees, apple trees, strawberries, and tens of thousands of flower seedlings that were planted on the mountain have all begun to bloom, and some are still blooming and ready to bear fruit. As you can see from the photos,
A lush scene, occasionally embellished with white, pink, and purple flowers, is like the finishing touch in the entire photo, making people feel relaxed unconsciously with the beautiful scenery frozen in the photo.
Cao Shujie didn't pay attention at first. He enlarged the photo and then enlarged it again. Suddenly he found that the picture was still very clear. He was surprised and said: "The definition is quite high."
"I spent almost 10,000 yuan on it, what do you think?" Cheng Xiaolin was filled with joy.
There is a saying that you get what you pay for, and she thinks there is nothing wrong with this saying.
The first generation of Dajiang Elf is not only beautiful in appearance, but also well-done in various details. Cheng Xiaolin is very satisfied.
Sitting on the sofa, he saw his wife starting to edit photos and videos. Cao Shujie told his wife about Cao Zhengyin's return.
Cheng Xiaolin was also puzzled: "Grandpa Zhengyin is back. What about Uncle Jiangang? Is he back?"
"No, only Grandpa Zhengyin came back by himself, so he shouldn't have a big problem." Cao Shujie said.
His grandfather Cao Zhenghu was sitting in the living room listening to Peking Opera and heard him mention this matter. After a while he said: "I'll go sit with him."
Cao Shujie didn't stop him, he said: "Grandpa, just go over and have a cup of tea, and don't mention these things."
"I understand." Cao Zhenghu strolled out.
When he was going out, he asked Mengmeng if she would go with him, but Mengmeng had just gone out with her father for a walk in the afternoon and came back so tired that she just wanted to sleep.
But now, I want her to get some sleep at this point, let alone sleep at night. She can toss around until midnight.
Cao Shujie said to his daughter: "Mengmeng, let's eat after a while, and then go to bed after eating, okay?"
"No, I'm so sleepy." Mengmeng just said she was a little sleepy, so she closed her eyes and squirmed back and forth in Cao Shujie's arms.
Seeing her like this, Cao Shujie felt a little funny, so he picked her up and put her on his lap: "Mengmeng, daddy is going to make something delicious right now."
"What are you doing? I won't eat it if it tastes too bad." Mengmeng also stated her position.
After hearing this, Cheng Xiaolin said directly: "If you don't eat, I'll starve you and get used to your faults."
"Huh, I don't like mom." Mengmeng said angrily while staying in her father's arms.
Cheng Xiaolin gave her a look: "It's a good idea if you don't look for me, I can relax for a while."
"Mom!" Mengmeng shouted loudly in a high-pitched voice, expressing her dissatisfaction.
But Cheng Xiaolin remained unmoved and allowed her daughter to act petty and said, "Go to bed. We will make delicious food later and won't call you."
"No!" Mengmeng shook her head.
She opened her eyes again and looked at her mother, as if she was about to rise, but she was less than one meter tall and didn't have fighting power, so there was no talk of rising.
Seeing that her mother ignored her, Mengmeng looked like a defeated rooster. She stared at her father, wanting him to be her supporter.
But didn't she find the wrong person?
Who is Cao Shujie most afraid of? You don’t have to ask yourself to know the answer!
Mengmeng is still young and does not understand this, so forgive her ignorance this time.
Mengmeng started to feel drowsy again. Seeing that she could fall asleep at any time, Cao Shujie said: "Mengmeng, daddy, let's read a book with you. Let's read comic books."
"What?" Mengmeng struggled to open her eyes and asked.
"How about Sun Wukong? There are also Zhu Bajie and Little White Horse." Cao Shujie asked her.
After Mengmeng heard this, she shook her head directly: "Don't watch it, it's boring."
"Where is the one who beat Prince Long?"
"Don't look, mom said Nezha is a bad boy and I am a good boy!" Mengmeng said seriously.
But Cao Shujie was thinking: "Do you really have the nerve to say, are you a good boy?"
"You are a naughty kid!"
"Dad, what are you doing?" Mengmeng seemed to sense that Cao Shujie was speaking ill of him and asked him.
"It's okay. I won't read this or that. Can you tell yourself what book you want to read?" Cao Shujie asked her.
When Mengmeng heard her father ask this, she opened her eyes and became energetic: "Dad, why don't you let me watch cartoons?"
"Ask your mother if she agrees?" Cao Shujie said.
Mengmeng turned around obediently and asked: "Mom, dad asked me to ask you, can you watch cartoons?"
"No, don't you want your eyes anymore?" Cheng Xiaolin said to her.
Mengmeng pouted and turned to look at her father: "Mom won't let me see it. Dad, will you let me see it?"
Cao Shujie thought to himself, my dear daughter, could you please stop blaming others?
Your mother won't let you watch it. If I let you watch cartoons, can she stop nagging me?
Cao Shujie is in a dilemma!
Mengmeng started to moan again and said she was sleepy and wanted to sleep.
Cheng Xiaolin was annoyed by what she said, and she said: "Mengmeng, I allow you to watch cartoons, but you can only watch two episodes at most. Do you understand?"
Mengmeng heard that it would be fine if she could watch it. Why did she care about two or three episodes? She nodded fiercely: "Okay."
Cheng Xiaolin said to her husband: "Shujie, turn on the TV and find a cartoon for her to watch."
Just watch some cute ones and don’t care about cartoons at all.
Cao Shujie looked at his daughter in a funny way. Seeing that she was very energetic now, he was very funny and asked her: "Mengmeng, are you not sleepy?"
"Dad!" Mengmeng was angry.
"Okay, okay. If you are nearsighted, you will have to wear glasses. It will be very ugly. Dad will not care about you." Cao Shujie went to find the remote control.
His wife still uses the laptop, otherwise it would be more convenient to use the computer to find cartoons.
After Cao Shujie turned on the TV, which was rarely turned on at home, Meng Meng's eyes fell on the TV and couldn't move away.
At this time, how could she still be unable to open her eyes and look like she was going to sleep?
I'm afraid she won't leave even if she goes to bed.
