Chapter 299: With the right person (4100) Good night, please vote for me
Passing by the old orchard area, I saw that there was nothing wrong here, and there was no water at all under the fruit trees.
In comparison, the two of them were more worried about the new fruit saplings planted next to them last year.
However, after more than a year of growth and Cao Shujie's drip irrigation of nutrient solutions regardless of cost, these new fruit saplings are growing particularly vigorously.
The root system also penetrates deep into the ground. After a heavy rain, it is more like baptizing these fruit saplings from the inside out, removing all the diseases. Under the light of the headlight, the fruit trees appear more active!
"Lao Zhu, wait a minute, there is a little water here. Let's open up the ridges and let out the water." Cao Jianjun called to Zhu Shengliang who continued to walk forward.
Zhu Shengliang looked over and saw, just as Cao Jianjun said, there was a puddle of water not far to the right.
When the light shines on it, the ground is a little reflective, but if you don't look carefully, it's easy to miss it.
The two of them worked together, using shovels to dig open the ridges in the fields, and slowly drained away the accumulated water.
They continued walking forward, stopping to deal with problems when they encountered them, until they came to Deer Park.
When the light shined through, I saw a few sika deer standing in the light rain, walking in the rain, as if they were taking a bath in the rainwater, which looked very pleasant.
In the cattle farm next door, there are many calves running in the rain, occasionally lowering their heads to take a few sips of rainwater.
Fortunately, this is a remote countryside rather than a city with highly concentrated industrial development, and it is close to the Yellow River, so the rainwater is relatively clean.
These calves noticed the arrival of Cao Jianjun and Zhu Shengliang, and they were not afraid at all. Some of the calves ran to the barbed wire guardrail, raised their heads, and looked at the two people outside through the barbed wire guardrail.
After a while, one of the calves made a cry of "moo", and it recognized Cao Jianjun and Zhu Shengliang. They often gave it grass and feed, and they were good people.
"Go to bed quickly. It's already time. You're still here in the rain, so you don't have to worry about catching a cold." Zhu Shengliang said.
It's a pity that the little calf doesn't understand, so it's still wandering around here.
The two opened the door on the barbed wire fence, locked it, and then went in and walked around.
Go and take a look at the room specially used to store feed. Don't let water get in or get damp. Then it will be difficult!
Fortunately, Cao Shujie was willing to spend money in this area, and there was no problem with the quality of the house at all.
When they finished visiting the orchards of more than two hundred acres and returned to the hut at the south gate, the rain stopped and the dense dark clouds in the sky had not completely dispersed. It looked more like another one at any time.
.
A gust of wind blew over, and the two of them felt a little cold.
When I entered the house, I saw that the time was almost seven o'clock.
After this busy time, both of them felt tired and hungry.
"Lao Zhu, let's go down the mountain and have a bowl of beef soup?" Cao Jianjun asked Zhu Shengliang and said, "I'll treat you."
"Then you have to go!" Zhu Shengliang was not polite at all.
His electric car is placed under the shed next to it where the mesh basin used to be. It is covered with tarpaulin so that no rainwater can get through it.
"Let's go!" Cao Jianjun also said.
After being busy in the middle of the night, they both felt really hungry and hungry.
I don’t want to eat instant noodles, ham sausage, sansho chicken feet or anything like that.
Zhu Shengliang went to get an electric car. Cao Jianjun originally wanted to send a text message to Cao Shujie, but typing it was too troublesome.
He looked at the time, it was almost seven o'clock, Cao Shujie must have gotten up at this time.
He simply called.
Sure enough, Cao Shujie quickly answered the phone.
Cao Jianjun told him in detail what happened last night, and also told him that he and Zhu Shengliang were going to the farm restaurant at the foot of the mountain to drink some beef soup.
"Uncle Jun, you go ahead, I'll ask him to put more meat on you, I said so." Cao Shujie said.
There are people who specialize in breakfast at the farm restaurant, and they mainly sell beef soup and fried cakes.
I can't say that the business is very popular, but people come here every day just to have a bite.
After Cao Jianjun finished the phone call, he took Zhu Shengliang's electric car and went down from the north along the hardened road outside the barbed wire guardrail to have breakfast.
…
When Cao Shujie woke up early in the morning, he saw that the yard was a bit messy. Thinking that his grandfather would go out for a walk after he woke up, he did not rush up the mountain. Instead, he tidied up his home and the door of his home first, and then had a simple breakfast.
, and then walked towards the mountain.
After a night of heavy rain, the air between heaven and earth seems to be much fresher.
The fine dust originally floating in the sky disappeared, and the dust on the leaves, flower trees, and fruit trees was washed away.
At first glance, the leaves are green and very clean.
Cao Shujie walked in, and after going deep into the orchard, there was no hardened ground, so it was a bit muddy when he stepped on it.
But indeed, as Cao Jianjun and Zhu Shengliang said, there was no problem in the orchard.
The 20 sika deer in the deer park all ran out of the deer house at this moment.
They are looking at the world cleaned by the heavy rain, and maybe like Cao Shujie, they feel that it is cleaner!
More than 200 cows walked back and forth in the farm, trampling on the ground. Occasionally, they would make a 'pattering' sound when they stepped on the waterlogged areas.
The stagnant water was trampled by the hooves of the cows and splashed everywhere. Some calves found it very interesting to play in the water. They even looked for puddles and rolled in them to wash their hooves.
He even invited his cow friends to come over and play with him.
They were not afraid when they saw Cao Shujie coming. There were also naughty cows that shook their hooves and threw water on Cao Shujie. The cow that had done bad things screamed "moo" in excitement.
Before Cao Shujie finished reading, Zhu Shengliang and Cao Jianjun came back with a bowl of beef soup and a piece of pancake each, and two spoons of soup each.
Seeing Cao Shujie coming so early, the two of them were a little embarrassed.
But Cao Shujie spoke first and said: "Uncle Jun, Master Zhu, you two worked hard last night."
"Hey, it's all right. We are also paid to work, so we can't be lazy!" Zhu Shengliang sheepishly scratched his ears and then touched his forehead, as if he had nowhere to let go.
After Cao Shuchao and Zhuang Xuesong came over one after another, they reorganized the orchard after the rain.
But that doesn't mean it's over.
The dark clouds in the sky have not dispersed yet. The clouds were torn apart by the sun's rays, revealing a ray of light, but before nine o'clock, the sky and the earth seemed to have become dark again.
Cao Shujie looked at the changes in the sky and was speechless.
He said to the few people who were still working: "Run quickly, go to the room to rest for a while, don't get wet."
"Shujie, it's okay. When I was working in the past, I was often caught in the rain, and the clothes on my body would dry in a short time after the sun came out!" Zhuang Xuesong said.
Zhu Shengliang also meant the same thing. When they were working on the construction site, it was very common for them to get caught in the rain.
They are all big men, how can they be so pretentious.
But Cao Shujie disagreed and called to them: "Hurry up and run away. Go to the hut to hide from the rain first."
Seeing that Cao Shujie was angry, the four of them ran towards the hut.
Before they could reach the destination, the ray of light that the sun finally managed to penetrate through the dark clouds completely disappeared.
It was clearly broad daylight, but it was suddenly plunged into darkness.
"Snapped!"
Suddenly falling into darkness, people's eyes can't adapt to the current environment at all, and some people fall down before they can see the ground clearly.
Cao Shujie also shouted: "Who fell down and where is it?"
"Boss, it's me...hiss..." Zhu Shengliang shouted.
He said: "I just stepped on the air and fell. I may have sprained my foot."
The three people running in front stepped back to help him.
Cao Shujie took out his mobile phone and used the 'flashlight' function that came with the mobile phone to illuminate the surroundings and light their way.
The four people cooperated and first carried Zhu Shengliang to the hut to lie down and rest.
Cao Shujie found the first aid kit in the hut and temporarily treated Zhu Shengliang's sprained foot.
Then he sprayed him with Yunnan Baiyao spray, and the cool liquid fell on his skin. Zhu Shengliang felt much better instantly, and the sprained foot didn't seem to hurt that much anymore.
After a while, there was a "crack, crackle, crackle" sound from outside. The big raindrops were blown by the wind and fell on the windows and the outer walls of the small color steel plate room. The noise was very loud and made people feel a bit messy.
"The rain this time is not small." Cao Shujie looked outside and said.
He, Zhu Shengliang: "Master Zhu, how are your feet?"
"It's not a big problem. It doesn't hurt so much after I sprayed the medicine just now." Zhu Shengliang said.
Adults are different from children in that they can tolerate pain.
Zhu Shengliang still wanted to wait until the afternoon, so he went to the health center to have a look and get some medicine to reduce swelling.
This heavy rain came very suddenly.
The rainfall was heavier than last night, and it was still dark outside. The lights were turned on in the hut. Cao Shujie and the other five sat in the hut, slowly waiting for the rain to subside.
At this time, even if they wanted to go out, Cao Shujie stopped them.
Not sure how much time had passed, Cao Shujie's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was his wife Cheng Xiaolin calling, asking how he was doing.
"I'm fine, and the orchard is also fine, don't worry." Cao Shujie said, "I'll wait until the rain stops before going down the mountain to go home."
"Then take your time when you come back, don't be in a hurry." Cheng Xiaolin warned him.
Cao Shujie agreed wholeheartedly.
This second rain came unexpectedly and didn't stop until after one o'clock in the afternoon.
The dark clouds that had been blocking the sky also dispersed a bit.
When the sun shone on the earth again and saw the sky shining brightly, the moods of Cao Shujie and others also became different.
"Master Zhu, how are you? Does your foot still hurt?" Cao Shujie had not forgotten Zhu Shengliang's foot injury.
He watched Zhu Shengliang take two steps off the ground. Although he said he was fine, Cao Shujie could see that his expression became very bad as he walked. This was not okay.
"Master Zhu, wait here. I'll ride your electric bike down, drive up, and take you to the hospital to take a X-ray." After Cao Shujie finished speaking, he rode Zhu Shengliang's electric bike down the mountain.
Give him a chance to say no.
Zhu Shengliang raised his hand and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Zhuang Xuesong, Cao Jianjun and Cao Shuchao looked at Zhu Shengliang with concern.
Cao Jianjun also asked him: "Lao Zhu, can't you really stand up?"
"It hurts a bit, but I can bear it." Zhu Shengliang said.
Hearing what he said, Cao Jianjun understood: "Don't hold on, just go and take a look first and don't hurt your bones."
"I feel fine. I should be fine after a day of rest," Zhu Shengliang said.
Cao Shujie drove his GL8, asked Cao Jianjun to go with him, and helped Zhu Shengliang to go to the County Central Hospital in Pingyuan County.
After taking a set of X-rays, it was found that there was no problem with the bones, but the muscles were twisted.
Cao Shujie asked the doctor to prescribe more anti-inflammatory and analgesic medicine, and then took them back from the hospital to Caojiazhuang.
"Master Zhu, I will take you home directly later. Don't think about anything. Just take a good rest for two days." Cao Shujie said.
No one could have imagined that in broad daylight, the weather would change at any time, and darkness would fall so quickly.
Zhu Shengliang thought about rejecting the boss's kindness, but he really couldn't stand now and it hurt if he stood for a little longer.
He said helplessly: "I have never had a break since I worked with my boss. This time even God can't stand it."
"Haha, Master Zhu, don't say that, it makes me look like Zhou Papi." Cao Shujie teased him with a smile.
But they all understand each other's thoughts.
Cao Shuchao, Cao Jianjun, Zhuang Xuesong and Zhu Shengliang have always come to work at Cao Shujie's place. Except for the Chinese New Year, or if something is really hard to do at home, they really don't think of taking a day off just because they feel tired.
In their pure thinking, if they work a day and earn a day's money, they are the backbone of the family. When the family needs money, how can they have time to rest?
Cao Shujie drove Zhu Shengliang to Dongtao Village and drove to the door of Zhu Shengliang's house. Zhang Hong heard the shouting at the gate and ran out to see that his husband had to be supported by others to walk. He instantly felt a palpitation in his heart and the sky was about to fall.
Like.
"Lao Zhu, what's wrong with you?" She was a little excited.
Fortunately, after explaining the situation, Zhang Hong was relieved to learn that her man was just twisting his muscles and could rest for two days.
When Cao Shujie and Cao Jianjun were leaving, Cao Shujie took out a wad of money from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Hong: "Sister-in-law, this money is not much. Buy some ribs for Master Zhu to stew and make up for it. Don't dislike it."
"Boss Cao, what are you doing? I can't have it."
Zhang Hong was a little confused. She subconsciously wanted to refuse because she really didn't want the money.
Her husband worked in Cao Shujie's orchard, and he received gifts during festivals, daily bonuses, and wages when the time came, and even specially invited their family members to have dinner together.
Everything made Zhang Hong particularly grateful to Cao Shujie. She felt that if she reached out and took the money, she would look down on her.
They all work in the fields to earn money for food, so what’s the big deal if they fall?
But Cao Shujie insisted on giving it.
Seeing Zhang Hong chase him out again and return the money to him, Cao Shujie took it. After getting in the car and closing the door, he opened the window crack, put the money in a plastic bag and threw it out.
"Sister-in-law, buy some ribs for Master Zhu and let him get better quickly. He has to go to work in my orchard quickly!" Cao Shujie shouted.
At that moment, Zhang Hong felt an inexplicable emotion surge in her heart. She picked up a wad of money wrapped in a plastic bag on the ground and felt that there was nothing wrong with her man working with Cao Shujie!
