Listening to what Cao Shujie said, Cao Jianlong nodded cautiously: "Shujie, to be honest, if you become the village director of Caojiazhuang, otherwise Caojiazhuang will not care how it develops. I have no idea at all."

"Uncle Long, you think too highly of me." Cao Shujie smiled and slowed down the electric car a little, and Cao Jianlong also slowed down.

"If I didn't have the ability, I definitely wouldn't do this." Cao Shujie didn't pretend.

"To be honest, the development of the people in Caojiazhuang will be mutually beneficial to me." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

If farmers who grow pasture regularly sell the pasture to them, they can greatly reduce their cattle-raising costs.

Those who grow kiwi fruit trees may ask him to sell their fruits, and he will be able to make some profit from the price difference.

Cao Jianlong somewhat understood what Cao Shujie meant by "mutual benefit", but he also knew that nothing was done in vain.

And with Cao Shujie’s presence, this is more secure!

Just like Caojiazhuang's ability to sell the unsalable kiwis this year, it was ultimately Cao Shujie who took over the mess.

Ignoring the matter and not mentioning it, he asked: "Shujie, how are you doing when you are away for half a month this time?"

Cao Shujie smiled and said: "It's very good, Uncle Long. If I didn't go out, I wouldn't have thought that every place has its own development ideas and its own unique ideas."

"Uncle Long, to be honest, it's so exciting outside. Our place is still too small and the foundation is too weak. If I are given another five or ten years to lay down the foundation and develop in all aspects, then our Caojiazhuang will be the only one in Caojiazhuang."

Get really strong.”

Listening to Cao Shujie's description, Cao Jianlong's blood boiled with excitement. He thought that he was 51 years old and it wouldn't be a problem to fuck him for another five or ten years.

"Shujie, if you have any ideas, just go ahead and do it. We are already so poor here, and we won't make it even poorer if we don't bother." Cao Jianlong looked determined to follow Cao Shujie and leave no way out.

Caojiazhuang is not a big place. They rode electric bikes, no matter how slow they were, they arrived at the door of Cao Jiangang's house without even realizing it.

He parked the electric car at the door, knocked on the door and went in. Then he heard the voice of the old lady Ren Cuiping: "Who is it? There is someone at home, just come in."

"Auntie, it's me, Shujie." Cao Shujie responded.

He and Cao Jianlong carried their things and walked inside together.

Cao Jianlong also said: "Sister-in-law, I am Jianlong!"

"Hey, you two can just come. Why bring anything with you?" Ren Cuiping was very happy to see the two of them.

Even though he had only taken a few steps, she still came from the house to greet him.

"Sister-in-law, please wait a minute." Cao Jianlong said, "I heard that Brother Jiangang is back. Come and take a look."

"Auntie, it's cold. You have to wear more clothes, don't catch a cold." Cao Shujie looked at Ren Cuiping's unkind look and warned her.

Ren Cuiping nodded and said: "Come into the house quickly, the stove is lit in the house, it's very warm."

As soon as Cao Shujie and Cao Jianlong entered the room, they saw Cao Jiangang sitting on a chair facing the door.

A stove was lit in the corner of the house near the door, and a chimney came out from the roof. The residual heat heated the house. Cao Shujie wore a lot of clothes. As soon as he came in, he felt that he was starting to sweat.

"Brother Gang!"

"Uncle, I'm here to see you."

The two greeted each other separately.

At this time, Cao Shujie took a closer look and realized that something was wrong with Cao Jiangang's face, with an unhealthy white color.

When he saw the two people coming in, he was about to stand up, but he was holding the table with his hands. He was halfway up and then sat back down. His body started to tremble slightly, and his hands also kept shaking.

Cao Shujie saw that something was really wrong with his body.

"Uncle, please sit down." Cao Shujie quickly put down the things in his hands and went to help him.

"Oh, my body is useless." Cao Jiangang spoke like a bellows, it was very difficult, his voice was not loud, and he was a little hoarse.

Cao Jianlong also heard that something was wrong. He subconsciously asked nervously: "Brother Gang, what's wrong with you?"

Cao Jianlong waved his hands lightly and said, "It's okay."

How could it be okay?

Ren Cuiping followed behind. She wiped her eyes with her hands and then said: "Jianlong, Shujie, you two sit down quickly and I'll make you tea."

"Auntie, there's no need to make tea." Cao Shujie said.

But Ren Cuiping didn't listen, she had already gone to get tea leaves and teacups.

At this time, Cao Shujie looked at Cao Jiangang seriously. He remembered that when Cao Jiangang was taken away, although he was over 60 years old, he was walking with wind at that time, his body was very strong, his voice was full of energy, and his living conditions

It's better, he has a lot of flesh on his body, and he doesn't look sick at all.

Not like the Cao Jiangang in front of me, he weighs less than 100 kilograms. For Cao Jiangang, who has a relatively large frame, he is really skinny.

His hair was all white, and he became extremely thin and haggard due to illness. The bones on his face were clearly visible, his eye sockets were sunken, and his cheeks were sunken. He looked older, like an old man in his eighties.

After Cao Jianlong sat down, looking at Cao Jiangang's face, he was shocked: "Brother Gang, what's going on with you? What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Cao Jiangang said with difficulty.

Seeing his wife bringing tea to the two of them, he raised his hand tremblingly and said, "Drink tea."

"Hey!" Cao Jianlong took a sip of tea and looked at Cao Jiangang: "Brother Gang, you didn't go to the hospital for a checkup."

"Checked, it's fine." Cao Jiangang said.

But Cao Jianlong and Cao Shujie are not blind. Even if they are medical idiots, they still know that Cao Jiangang's matter is serious, so it's no wonder they don't let him stay inside.

With this look, to be honest, something could happen at any time inside, and I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it clearly.

Besides, if you send it back, what kind of splash will it make?

Ren Cuiping said to the two of them: "I just told the old man that you two would return the moon cakes and rice on August 15th. What do you think the old man did after hearing this?"

"Auntie, I'm happy." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

Ren Cuiping nodded vigorously: "I'm so happy. He was so happy that he cried. He said he regretted it. What else did the village committee think about him?"

A smile slowly appeared on Cao Jiangang's haggard face. He raised his left hand slightly, clenched his fist, and only showed his thumb: "Do it well."

After finishing speaking, Cao Jiangang looked at Cao Shujie, with an even more satisfied look in his eyes: "You guys should do a good job too."

"Uncle, don't worry, we won't brag, we will definitely work hard." Cao Shujie said seriously: "No matter what, we have to bring Caojiazhuang to a high standard."

"Okay, I'll wait." Cao Jiangang may have talked too much and had trouble breathing.

"Old man, you should drink some water too." Ren Cuiping handed over a kettle. The kettle turned out to be the kind of thermos cup with a straw used by children.

He took a few sips from the straw and seemed to remember something. He lowered his head in embarrassment. After a while, he raised his head again, watched the two of them shaking their wrists, and said, "I can't do it anymore."

"What are you talking about?" Ren Cuiping became anxious upon hearing this, and her eyes seemed ready to burst into tears at any time.

"Auntie, how was my uncle's investigation?" Cao Shujie asked Ren Cuiping.

Cao Jianlong also wanted to ask. Looking at Cao Jiangang's appearance, four words popped into his mind: "He is terminally ill!"

He always felt that Cao Jiangang was seriously ill this time and might not be able to survive for long.

"The doctor said that his blood vessels are blocked, his heart is not good, and there is no good place in his body," Ren Cuiping said.

"Then why didn't you stay in the hospital?" Cao Shujie was puzzled.

Ren Cuiping pointed at her husband Cao Jiangang: "If he doesn't give in, I'll be anxious to death."

There's no way around it!

Cao Shujie understands very well how this kind of patient's uncooperative feeling can make good people become ill in a hurry.

Cao Jianlong also advised him: "Brother Gang, you can go to the hospital and stay for a few days. You have rural medical insurance, and it won't cost much."

"It's not about money." Cao Jiangang said with difficulty.

…

Cao Jianlong and Cao Shujie stayed at Cao Jiangang's house for another 10 minutes, chatting with Cao Jiangang and Ren Cuiping. During this period, Cao Shujie also persuaded Cao Jiangang to go to the hospital for hospitalization, but he still couldn't persuade him.

Seeing the obvious tired expression on Cao Jiangang's face, Cao Jianlong and Cao Shujie said goodbye and left.

When leaving, Ren Cuiping wanted to stay with them at home for lunch, but neither of them agreed.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Cao Jiangang needs to rest and recuperate at this time.

As he rode his electric scooter eastwards, Cao Jianlong asked him, "Shujie, do you have anything else to do?"

"It's okay, Uncle Long, you have something to tell me." Cao Shujie asked him.

Cao Jianlong said: "If nothing happens, let's go to the village committee to have some tea."

"Let's go!" When he was approaching the middle road, Cao Shujie remembered something and said to Cao Jianlong: "Uncle Long, you go first. I'll go home to get some good tea."

"I'm not particular about what is good tea or not. Even the powdered tea leaves can be soaked in water and drunk." Cao Jianlong said.

But Cao Shujie still sped up and ran home.

Seeing him like this, Cao Jianlong didn't leave, but just waited where he was.

Not long after, Cao Shujie came back again, with two handbags with tea leaves hanging on the handlebars.

"Uncle Long, why didn't you go over?" Cao Shujie was a little surprised.

Cao Jianlong said: "I have nothing to do alone, so just wait."
