Cao Shujie also heard what Gao Weicheng said, and he laughed loudly: "Uncle Weicheng, don't say that. If so, I will be guilty."
"Shujie, you can't be soft-hearted about this matter. Your suggestion is very good. Since the whole village is having a dinner together, it doesn't matter if one person is missing. No matter what he is busy with outside, as long as his registered residence is still in Caojiazhuang, he must come back.
.”
"Otherwise, I will move my household registration and have nothing to do with Caojiazhuang from now on."
"Don't eat from the bowl and look at the food in the pot."
Others in the crowd nodded: "That's right. Why do you get benefits in Caojiazhuang and don't even have time to come back for a meal? We don't need such people in Caojiazhuang."
Because of what Cao Shujie said, other people also made suggestions one after another. They thought it was very good.
There are also many people giving various suggestions.
Caojiazhuang is developing better and better now. They all believe that in the future, with the expansion of various industries such as cattle raising, orchard planting, and pasture planting, everyone's income will be higher and higher, and Caojiazhuang will definitely be a treasure land in the future.
Maybe one day every household in Caojiazhuang will be able to build a two-story building like Cao Shujie, and every household will have a car. As long as they don't mess around, every household will be able to save 1.8 million.
Therefore, the proposal Cao Shujie just mentioned has been supported by many people from the bottom of their hearts. They know that only when everyone in the village works together can things be done faster and better.
Otherwise, if there is something that requires everyone to come forward, there will always be a few who find various reasons not to come forward, for fear of causing trouble to themselves, so it is better to drive them away now. Caojiazhuang does not need helpers.
Seeing this scene, Cao Jianlong, the village party secretary, seemed to have seen the complete take-off of Caojiazhuang.
"With such cohesion, why worry about not being able to accomplish anything?" Cao Jianlong was thinking in his mind.
"Since everyone agrees, let's strike while the iron is hot today and set a date together. After this date is set, everyone in the Caojiazhuang village will reunite on this day." Cao Shujie said.
The atmosphere has been set up here, and there must be a result to this matter.
Some people say the ninth day of September, some people say the tenth day of October, and still others say the first day of the twelfth lunar month, etc. There are all kinds of days.
Cao Shujie was wondering if he would have to hold a Double 11 event?
Obviously, everyone thought together, and this result couldn't come out even after two days of thinking.
As per the old rules, Cao Shujie and the other five people, together with two villager representatives, came up with two dates together. Finally, the seven people voted together to choose one of the times as the day for the gathering.
When setting this date, they also took full consideration of those who were really busy working outside and going to school, so they still set the time on New Year's Day.
The beginning of the new year is also the day they think everyone opens a new chapter together.
Moreover, on this day, schools have a holiday, and most companies will also have a holiday. The remaining ones who have not had a holiday will naturally ask for leave to come back, or give up the benefits and future wealth of Caojiazhuang.
Indeed, as Gao Weicheng and others said, Caojiazhuang is tolerant to everyone, but at critical moments, they don't need people who sway around.
…
After setting this date, Cao Shujie went out to continue the meeting and told everyone about this time.
The main thing is to let the people present go back and inform other people at home and people outside.
Cao Shujie himself first stated that no matter how busy his factory is, on January 1st, everyone who belongs to Caojiazhuang will have a holiday, and no one will be allowed to go to work.
After the afternoon meeting, all the villagers went back.
Cao Shujie and Cao Jianlong gathered together in the office again to chat about how they would have dinner together every New Year's Day in the future.
Nearly 1,400 people gathered for dinner, and even though many of them were elderly people and children, the total amount of materials consumed that day was not a small amount.
The bulk of the dinner that day was provided by the Caojiazhuang Village Committee. In addition, each household provided two dishes.
Cao Shujie and the others discussed buying a batch of tables, chairs and benches for recycling in the future.
Or go to a farm restaurant and borrow the tables and chairs there.
Some people can understand Cao Shujie's proposal.
They also saw that as the village's economic development got better and better, the human touch between them unknowingly became weaker and weaker.
Even among neighbors, it seems less lively than before.
They felt that it was very rare for Cao Shujie to see this at this time and give everyone an opportunity to get together and communicate with each other.
After returning home, the people began to call people outside and tell them that from now on New Year's Day would be the day for everyone in Caojiazhuang to gather for dinner.
The people who called people outside in Caojiazhuang also gave numerous instructions to those people who were hanging around outside until New Year's Day. No matter how busy they were outside or how much money they could earn that day, they must come back. There was no need to discuss, otherwise
They will be removed from Caojiazhuang.
Most people took it seriously when they heard about it.
But some people don't take it seriously. They think what kind of era it is now, how can the village be so awesome and still manage this area?
Some stubborn people are thinking, I won’t go back then, but I want to see what you can do to me.
Perhaps as Gao Weicheng said, if you want this thing to be accomplished, you must not be soft-hearted and cannot give others the ambiguous illusion that it is okay to participate or not to participate.
…
After the meeting, Cao Shujie, Cao Jianlong, Cao Zhengcun, Gao Changyin and Lu Ping began to discuss tomorrow's visit to the elderly and veterans who met the criteria in the village.
In response to this matter, they bought some additional gifts for visits, which will be given to these people tomorrow.
On the second day, Cao Shujie and Cao Jianlong were busy together for a whole day.
All veterans and senior citizens over 65 years old in the village receive this condolence gift and a subsidy of 1,000 yuan.
When they went there, many people said they had already called people outside and promised to come back on New Year's Day.
Cao Shujie and the others have heard similar words no less than 20 times.
Cao Jianlong even said jokingly that he is now looking forward to New Year's Day.
"Uncle Long, don't talk about you, I am also looking forward to it now." Cao Shujie said this.
He said: "We at home will prepare to buy vegetables and meat two days in advance and find someone to cook on New Year's Day."
"This is no problem. We have a banquet cook in our village. If we feel that his skills are not up to par, we will let the chef from the farm restaurant do it." Cao Jianlong said.
"Well, okay!"
After returning home, Cao Shujie only felt numbness in his legs and pain in the soles of his feet.
I walked all day today, drank a lot of water, and Cao Shujie blocked my cigarette.
However, Cao Jianlong and the others smoked a lot, so that Cao Shujie still had a strong smell of smoke on his body.
At home, his father Cao Jianguo is making a cow head, and his uncle Cao Jianlin is helping. The two old brothers seem to be quite busy.
Cao Shujie killed two cows this time, and there was still a lot of beef and cow water left.
The two bull heads were also brought back by Cao Shujie.
They were preparing to have a busy day today, stewing all the beef, cooking the offal, and then preserving it for later consumption.
The uncle Cao Jianlin also talked about the eldest brother, second brother and others coming back tomorrow.
The eldest brother, the second brother, they just left in July, and just over a month has passed. They made a special trip to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival this time.
Even my sister Cao Huifang is back.
Since leaving at the beginning of the year, his sister has not been back.
Cao Shujie called his sister several times, but his sister always said that she was very busy, taking exams for certificates and preparing in advance to find a job after graduation.
When he saw his sister, Cao Shujie told him personally about the big gathering at Caojiazhuang every New Year's Day from now on.
"Brother, your prestige is so high now. If you take the lead in doing something, you might actually be able to do it." Cao Huifang said pointedly.
Cao Shujie really wanted to slap his sister: "Stop talking nonsense."
This kind of thing can be big or small, but once it spreads, people will be confused and have no idea what to say, and their interest will change.
Mengmeng may have grown up. Now when she sees her aunt, she is no longer as scared as she was when she was a child. She also knows how to run towards her aunt and ask for benefits from her.
When her aunt refused to buy it, she asked her aunt for a red envelope.
Cao Huifang frowned when she saw her niece now, thinking that it was too late to hide, so how could she bully her.
"Mengmeng, my aunt really has no money. When my aunt goes to work, I promise to give you a big red envelope," Cao Huifang said.
Mengmeng didn't believe it. She raised her little head and blinked her eyes and said, "Auntie, please give me an IOU, otherwise I won't believe you."
When Cao Huifang heard her niece say this, she felt like she was about to collapse.
How did she teach her brother and sister-in-law?
"Mengmeng, is there still trust between the two of us?" Cao Huifang looked at her niece, heartbroken. She never expected that Mengmeng would become so money-obsessed now.
Who knew that Mengmeng said: "Auntie, you taught me all this."
Cao Huifang's whole body was in bad condition.
When the adults saw it, they couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The eldest brother, Cao Shubin, saw two pots full of beef, beef offal and beef head meat. He smelled the aroma and began to salivate instinctively in his mouth.
This is the big basin used for washing clothes in the past, not the small basin used for washing face.
"Shujie, how many cows have you killed?" Cao Shubin asked him. It's incredible to put so much beef together.
Cao Shujie stretched out two fingers: "We killed two heads in total and divided 10 jins among the village. The 5 jins divided by my uncle are also here. They were cooked in two pots."
"Brother, take some when you leave and eat slowly when you go back."
"Then I won't be polite to you." Cao Shubin pointed to the beef head meat in the big basin: "I will mix it with you for lunch today."
"No problem, I'll start packing now, let's have a drink later," Cao Shujie said.
I went to the hospital the next Saturday. I originally wanted to make an appointment on Thursday, but the expert I made an appointment with went out to invigilate the exam on Wednesday/Thursday and the time was temporarily changed.
I took my wife and children out for a day today and bought them some things in advance. The update is normal. I think after being hospitalized, except for injections and exercise, no one will disturb me. Maybe I can write more^_^
