Chapter 509 It’s impossible to farm the land, so let’s rely on our ability
Eating (700.01 million)
Knowing that she would continue playing tomorrow, Mengmeng lay on the bed with her eyes closed after taking a bath in the evening. She also pulled the quilt over her head and made a purring sound with her mouth pouted.
He looked like he was sleeping.
Cao Shujie knew his daughter very well. He stood beside the bed and looked at her, silently counting 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Thinking that if you can’t count to 10, Mengmeng will wake up, right?
Sure enough, when Cao Shujie had just counted to 8, Mengmeng, who was lying on the bed, moved his hand. This naughty little hand grabbed the quilt and tentatively pulled it down bit by bit.
When Cao Shujie saw this, he even tugged on his wife's clothes. When his wife opened her mouth to ask, Cao Shujie put his fingers on his lips.
"Shhh"
He motioned to his wife to stop talking, and then pointed to the bed.
Cheng Xiaolin subconsciously turned her head and looked over, and saw that her daughter had pulled the quilt to reveal her hair, and her forehead was exposed at a glance. Cheng Xiaolin reached out angrily and took off the quilt that was still covering her little face.
Mengmeng's head was covered with a quilt, and her vision was pitch black. Suddenly, Cheng Xiaolin pulled the quilt away. She stared at the dazzling lights on the roof with her eyes wide open. Her little head was confused and she couldn't react at all.
When her eyes fell on her father and mother, she screamed "ah".
Cheng Xiaolin looked at her daughter with a dark face and said in a bad tone: "Mengmeng, what do you want to do? If you don't want to sleep, get out and don't come back."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mengmeng burst into laughter.
It was as if I had found a new toy, and I looked very happy.
Cao Shujie knew this would happen.
He turned around to take a shower and asked his wife to put Mengmeng to sleep first.
…
Caojiazhuang!
Cao Jianqiu and his nephew Cao Shubao came back after serving almost two years in prison.
After they were released from prison, their eldest brother Cao Jianguang took them back to Caojiazhuang. They were a little confused when they saw the current Caojiazhuang.
"Brother, how many years has this been?" Cao Jianqiu asked his eldest brother Cao Jianguang while standing at the door of his house.
Cao Jianguang was an honest and conscientious man. He worked diligently in Caojiazhuang all his life to save money for his son's wife.
From the bottom of his heart, he looked down upon his second brother's lazy and sneaky ways.
If it weren't for the brotherly bond, Cao Jianguang would not care about his brother.
But who knew that his son Cao Shubao didn't learn well and followed his brother Cao Jianqiu to steal things in the village.
He didn't even know that they usually had small fights, and no one in the village really had a problem with them.
But who would have known that they had stolen something into Cao Shujie's orchard the year before last, and that someone else had stolen it from them. Finally, they called the police and found valuable stolen fruit from his brother's house that had not yet been sold.
Later, his brother and son were sentenced and imprisoned.
His son won't be able to come out for a while, and he just committed a crime. It's hard to find a wife in Caojiazhuang.
Because of this, when Cao Shujie became the village director last year and later encouraged the people in the village to follow him in planting fruit trees, raising cattle, and growing pasture, Cao Jianguang was heartbroken and simply spent half of the money he had saved to follow Cao Shujie to buy kiwi fruit saplings, and the family
The land is planted with kiwi fruit.
I bought five calves with the remaining money, plus the usual feed, corn, and bean cakes. I raised them diligently for a year, and at the end of last month, I sold a large calf.
When settling the bill, the village accountant Gao Changyin said that his five cows totaled 6,930 kilograms and sold for 94,248 yuan.
According to the pre-agreed payment of half, he got 47,124 yuan on the spot, which made him unable to find the United States.
At this time, Cao Jianguang believed that hard work can make you rich, and he was an example.
In the past, even Cao Jianguang would not believe that he could earn more than 90,000 yuan a year.
Moreover, he also planted more than six acres of orchards. According to Director Cao, the kiwis grown in these orchards, when harvested, can make more money than he earns from raising cattle.
When he heard this statement, the honest man Cao Jianguang felt even better.
He really didn't complain about the village director Cao Shujie sending his son to the cell.
How could it be like this if his son hadn't done it himself?
Cao Jianguang is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong.
But having said that, his son didn't go in. Cao Jianguang used the money he saved to marry his son, so he didn't have the money to raise cattle and plant fruit trees. Naturally, he couldn't earn the money he would later earn.
Regarding this result, Cao Jianguang still felt quite complicated.
Hearing his brother's question, Cao Jianguang glared at him and said, "It's October 4, 2013. How many years have you said it has been?"
Cao Jianqiu looked at his elder brother's tone of voice as if he was on gunpowder, and giggled, not daring to reply.
But when Cao Shubao saw the changes in the village, he also asked: "Dad, why are there so many cars in the village?"
Many people in Caojiazhuang have bought vans, mainly for transporting goods and people.
Especially those who do business in Cao Shujie's orchard surrounding Caojiazhuang, it is more convenient to have a van to carry things, and this kind of van is not expensive.
Cao Shubao frowned and said: "Not only are there more cars, the village seems to be cleaner..."
"Why are there still flowers planted on the roadside? If we don't grow vegetables in these places, isn't it a waste?" Cao Jianqiu added.
Cao Shubao immediately understood what the problem was.
"Yes, Dad, why is our village different from before? There have been so many changes in two years?"
Cao Shubao looked at his father and suddenly found that his father had become a little different.
After being released from prison today, they hurried home. Cao Shubao really didn't pay much attention to his father, nor did he notice that his father's energy and spirit were very different now from before.
There is no way, my income is higher than before, real money is in the bank, and there are kiwi fruits in the field that can be cultivated for decades, so I am more confident.
After getting rich, people's spirit and temperament are different. Cao Jianguang is no longer as difficult to make money as before, he is reluctant to spend money, and he seems submissive in life.
When Cao Jianqiu heard what his nephew said, he also looked at his elder brother seriously: "Brother, if Shu Bao didn't tell me, I really wouldn't have noticed. Is there anything good that happened to you? Tell me."
There was an air of obscenity when he spoke.
Although Cao Jianguang was too lazy to talk to him, he still told him the reason when he thought that this was his only younger brother.
I heard that my eldest brother followed Cao Shujie to raise cattle last year and earned more than 90,000 yuan. He also planted a kiwi fruit orchard. Cao Jianqiu was confused on the spot.
Never expected that this would happen.
"Jianqiu, don't do those sneaky things in the future."
As the eldest brother, Cao Jianguang told him sincerely: "Don't you still have two acres of land? I'll lend you some money. You can buy fruit saplings and cement pillar wires, and you can also plant kiwi fruits. Wait for the kiwi fruits to grow in three years."
If the fruit tree bears fruit, it will be money if you sell it, and you will pay me back when the time comes."
"Brother, how much money can you make? Can you make as much money as Cao Shujie?" Cao Jianqiu became interested.
If he could earn as much as Cao Shujie, he would have the patience to work hard.
But his dream was shattered by his elder brother Cao Jianguang's words.
"Jianqiu, what are you dreaming about? What we grow is different from what Director Cao's family grows. Besides, they study fruit trees in the fields every day and improve the varieties. Their fruit is much more refined than ours."
At this point, Cao Jianguang changed his tone and said with a smile: "But I also heard that with the variety we are growing now, one acre of land can easily earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year. You have two acres of land.
, after the results start to come out, you can make fifty or sixty thousand a year, which is no better than your sneaky way."
Cao Jianqiu doesn't like to hear the words "sneaking chickens and dogs". He also relies on his ability and skills to make a living, okay?
"Brother, we have to work hard for two or three years to earn 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, so the money is earned too slowly." Cao Jianqiu began to feel conflicted in his heart.
He is simply not the kind of person who can calm down and work hard on the land, otherwise he would not instigate his nephew to steal things with him to make money.
Hearing that it was difficult to make money from orchards, Cao Jianqiu felt discouraged.
He began to think again, it was impossible to farm the land!
Not even planting an orchard!
You still have to rely on your ability to eat!
But just after he came out, no matter how anxious he was, he knew that he had to wait for two days, so he couldn't take action now, could he?
Thinking about these things, Cao Jianqiu's eyes kept wandering, and Cao Jianguang felt that his brother had no idea at all.
He also said: "Jianqiu, there are many profitable businesses in our village now. You are such an old person, so be more practical, earn some money, clean yourself up, and I can marry you as a widow."
"
As the eldest brother, he was also worried, but Cao Jianqiu didn't accept the favor and didn't say anything. Just when he was thinking about how to go next, he suddenly heard his eldest brother say: "Let's go home for dinner. You
My sister-in-law is stewing chicken, ribs, and fish to help you avoid any bad luck."
When he thought of his sister-in-law, Cao Jianqiu's eyes blinked subconsciously.
I was really craving for meat, but now I don’t want to go.
"Brother, what's that... I have something else to do, let's go home first."
Cao Jianqiu had just finished speaking, but before he left, his sister-in-law came out of the house with a serious face.
"Where are you going again? Cao Jianqiu, let me tell you, if you take your nephew Shubao to steal things again, believe it or not, I will chop off your hand with a knife, and then break your nephew's legs with a stick."
Yang Chunying, an elderly woman who came out of the house, said.
When Cao Jianqiu heard his sister-in-law say this, he really wanted to vomit blood. Why did he want to chop off his hand for stealing, but he only broke his nephew's leg?
My own mother can’t do this, right?
"Come in and eat!" Yang Chunying yelled.
Cao Jianqiu, however, was stunned and did not dare to refute, and obediently followed him home for dinner.
Inside the house, all the prepared dishes were brought to the table.
Yang Chunying saw that his son had lost a lot of weight now, and felt very distressed, but more angry than ever: "Shu Bao, if you want to follow your second uncle around again, do you think I can break your legs?"
.”
Cao Jianqiu felt disgusted because I taught your son how to behave badly.
Cao Jianqiu ate this meal with great fear. Every time he looked up at his sister-in-law, he always felt that there was a fierce light in her eyes, as if she was afraid of cutting him with a knife.
After finally finishing the meal, Cao Jianqiu didn't want to stay any longer. He quickly left and prepared to go back to his home.
No one has lived in it for almost two years. How dirty is the house? Is the yard full of grass?
…
After he left, Yang Chunying and Cao Jianguang looked at their son Cao Shubao.
Yang Chunying glared at her son fiercely and said, "Shu Bao, if you continue to follow your second uncle and do evil things, I will treat you as my son."
After finishing speaking, Yang Chunying slapped the table with a loud slap, which made the bowls and chopsticks on the table jump.
Cao Shubao kept blinking in fear, fearing that his mother would suddenly get angry and chop him with a knife.
"Old Cao, from now on let Shubao follow you to raise cattle, grow fruit trees, and do all the heavy work. If this bastard continues to mess around, kick him out directly."
"After two years, when the family saves some money and his problem is over, we can find someone from another place to help him become a relative," Yang Chunying said.
Although she looks careless, some things are arranged very carefully.
Letting her son work with his father in farming and raising cattle was also to change the impression that her son was lazy among other people in Caojiazhuang.
Sometimes "people's words are scary" are really not just words.
But she didn't know if her son could understand her good intentions.
But Yang Chunying repeatedly warned her son that he could no longer be so close to his second uncle and that if he continued to hang out with him, something would happen sooner or later.
Cao Jianguang wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
He told his son to stay away from that bastard second uncle.
But Cao Jianguang and Yang Chunying have forgotten one thing. If their son Cao Shubao hadn't been lazy and had the same temperament as his second uncle Cao Jianqiu, their son would never have engaged in such sneaky things.
This is called a wolf traveling a thousand miles to eat meat, and a dog traveling a thousand miles to eat shit. Their nature is hard to change!
When Cao Shujie and his family were playing with Adilijiang and the others in Changji, Cao Jianqiu, who had just been released from prison and returned to Caojiazhuang, opened the door of his house and went in to see that his yard was clean and tidy, with not a single weed in sight.
When I entered the room again, I saw that the room was also very clean. The quilts on the bed had been folded and covered with a piece of plastic sheet.
After lifting the plastic sheet, Cao Jianqiu could smell the sunshine emanating from the quilt.
"Brother..." Cao Jianqiu thought of his brother for a moment.
His sister-in-law would definitely not do this favor for him.
This made Cao Jianqiu feel uncomfortable.
It turns out that his eldest brother has been taking care of him silently.
Then Cao Jianqiu remembered what happened when the two brothers were young. Something happened at that time, and someone bullied him, but his brother protected him.
What he didn't expect is that his brother is still the same as he was when he was a child.
This made him feel heavy in his heart.
But his life in the past two years was not good at all. After returning home, he just had a full meal of chicken, fish and meat, and Cao Jianqiu felt sleepy at this time.
The memory of the touching scene when he first entered the house was immediately forgotten by him. He spread out the quilt on the bed. Cao Jianqiu didn't even take a shower, so he lay on the bed and fell asleep.
When he woke up, Cao Jianqiu woke up from hunger.
He was thinking about cooking something, but when he was on the edge of the bed getting ready to put on his shoes, he remembered that he had only come back two years ago and his family was so poor that they had nothing to eat.
Go out and buy some, he doesn't have any money.
It’s really hard for a penny to defeat a heroic man!
