Chapter 926 Don’t praise my dad, he will be proud (8000)
"Grandpa, it's better for you." Mengmeng said with a smile.
Cao Shujie saw that his father-in-law's work was not finished yet, so he said, "Dad, let me help you finish the grass together."
Cheng Rengui waved his hand: "No, let's go back and rest for a while. I'll come back later to finish it."
Cao Shujie didn't listen. He had already walked over, holding the grass in one hand, and raised the guillotine in the other hand to start cutting the grass.
This thing is a very primitive tool, similar to a dog-head guillotine.
Cao Shujie once asked his father-in-law why he didn't buy an electric one, but his father-in-law said that the electric one would be too broken when punched out, so it would not be as useful as this one.
Regarding this, Cao Shujie believed that his father-in-law was not saving money.
However, this is physical work. After doing it for a long time, your arms will become sore and numb. Most people really can't do this work.
Cheng Rengui saw that his son-in-law was already starting to work. He muttered something in his mouth, but did not stand there. He let Cao Shujie use the guillotine with both hands while he went in to add more grass. The two of them worked together, which was indeed a lot faster.
.
After Mengmeng saw this, she thought this was quite interesting, and wanted to help her grandfather and father, but she seemed to be deliberately causing trouble here, causing Cao Shujie and Cheng Rengui's cooperation to be interrupted several times, and even
Mengmeng rushed to hold the forage and almost hit the guillotine.
Cao Shujie was really afraid of accidentally hitting her, so he finally shouted and chased her away.
When Mengmeng ran home, she yelled that she wanted to complain to her mother, saying that Cao Shujie scolded her.
Cao Shujie was so angry that he wanted to give her a kick on the spot.
"Mengmeng is still so cute." Cheng Rengui said.
When Cao Shujie heard what his father-in-law said, he didn't know how to answer the question.
Looking at the 20 semi-large beef cattle in the cattle farm, Cao Shujie asked his father-in-law how much he paid for the calves.
Hearing his father-in-law say that he bought one for 5,800 yuan a year ago, Cao Shujie thought about the quotation that Cui Jingguo and the others had given him some time ago. For people who raise free-range cattle, this price is not high.
But compared with previous years, the price is ridiculously high.
"It's not easy to raise cattle now. The price of calves is too high. The prices of grain and feed are also rising. The price of selling cattle has dropped in the past two years. After working hard, you can't make money from a cow." Cheng Rengui said.
He said: “Everyone has seen that raising cattle made money in the past few years, and there were more self-employed cattle raising in the village. Many young people did not want to go out to work, so they took loans from banks and started raising cattle at home. How did they know that this thing did not exist?
Making money is what you see on the surface.”
This is Cheng Rengui's personal experience.
He saw that many young people took out loans to raise cattle, but in the end the cattle died or lost money due to other reasons.
But this cannot stop others from dreaming of making a fortune by raising cattle.
"Dad, I started breeding calves over there. If you need calves next time, let me know and I will bring them over to you." Cao Shujie said this.
Cheng Rengui knew that his son-in-law had begun to explore the experience of breeding calves a few years ago, but he did not want to trouble his son-in-law on this matter.
Money is already involved, and it would be bad to involve too much.
As far as Cheng Rengui is concerned, he would rather be more tired and earn less than he would like his son-in-law and daughter to have conflicts over money again.
But he still agreed with a smile on his face.
Cao Shujie also knew his father-in-law's temper, so he didn't say much to him at this time.
When the two of us work together, our efficiency is more than twice as fast as working alone.
By the time Li Xiaojuan came to find them, the two of them were almost done.
Li Xiaojuan saw that her son-in-law was also working and there was a lot of dust on his body. At that time, she said to her wife: "You old man, how can you have the nerve to let Shujie help you work?"
Cheng Rengui opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Cao Shujie explained: "Mom, I did it myself, and it has nothing to do with my dad."
"There's no need for you to get started. This job is so dirty and tiring." Li Xiaojuan was still mumbling.
Cao Shujie didn't care: "Mom, it's okay. Besides, I also work at home. I also worked hard when I was young. It's the same."
After finishing the remaining work in a few minutes, they returned to the yard together and washed their hands and faces at the sink outside. Li Xiaojuan had already washed the fruits and went to the kitchen to see how the ribs were being stewed.
Cheng Xiaolin was coaxing her son in the room, while Mengmeng was doing homework beside her.
After Mengmeng ran back just now, she came to complain to her.
Cheng Xiaolin naturally knew what kind of virtue her daughter was, and when she saw her running around and jumping there, she felt it was an eyesore.
Just let her do her homework.
So when Cao Shujie came in, he saw his daughter sitting at the desk writing furiously.
He didn't believe it either: "Mengmeng is so honest?"
Cheng Xiaolin said: "Don't you know what this naughty kid looks like?"
"When she came in just now, she twisted her mouth and said you yelled at her and came to me to complain. I think she just doesn't have enough homework."
Cao Shujie looked at his daughter and said, "Then I'll tell Teacher Zhang next Monday to increase the amount of homework."
When Mengmeng heard this, her face instantly turned into a bitter look. She said aggrievedly: "I don't want to do so much homework."
"Mengmeng, do you know how to speak properly? If you make up nonsense again, I won't tell you anymore and I'll just slap you in the mouth." Cheng Xiaolin heard the crooked words in her daughter's mouth and wanted to beat her up.
Mengmeng: "..."
Seeing her mother getting angry, she lost her temper this time and lowered her head to do her homework seriously.
When Cheng Rengui came in, he saw that Mengmeng was so honest and diligent, and praised her as a good child who knew how to study by herself, and said that she would definitely be able to get into a good university in the future.
After hearing this, Cheng Xiaolin said, "Dad, you don't know anything, so don't talk nonsense."
After finishing speaking, Cheng Xiaolin asked her husband to watch her son while she went to the kitchen to help cook.
"Shujie, did I say something wrong?" Cheng Rengui is not stupid.
Cao Shujie told his father-in-law about Mengmeng's naughty things. Cheng Rengui laughed loudly after hearing this: "Okay, this kid is brave and will definitely have a future."
No matter what happened, Mengmeng's various deviant behaviors were all good in the eyes of his grandfather.
One stewed pork ribs, one stir-fried chicken with pepper, and some green vegetables.
A lunch was made.
As they ate, they talked about what had happened over the years. Li Xiaojuan also said that this family relied entirely on Cao Shujie, otherwise she couldn't imagine what would have happened.
"Grandma, don't say that about my dad. If you keep talking, my dad will be proud." Mengmeng was sitting next to Li Xiaojuan. When she heard her grandma praising her dad, she felt unhappy.
One sentence made the whole family burst into laughter.
Knowing that his sister-in-law Liu Yingying was going to give birth at any time, Cao Shujie and the others wanted to come over and have a look.
After dinner in the afternoon, Cheng Xiaolin was asked to drive, with Cao Shujie holding his son from behind, and the family drove towards Anwu County People's Hospital.
In the car, Li Xiaojuan also said that this car was more comfortable to sit in than his previous car.
The rear seats of this car also have leg rests, so I don’t feel tired at all.
Cheng Xiaolin really wanted to tell her mother that this car, including various taxes and fees, could buy nine of their original cars.
There is no comparison at all between the two.
Cheng Rengui didn't know much about cars. He also thought the car was pretty good, but he couldn't tell what was good about it. As for the price, it was an unfamiliar area.
After arriving at the hospital, Cheng Xiaolin stopped the car first, and then called her brother Cheng Yunping to ask which ward they were in, and the group went directly there.
When she came to the ward, she saw Liu Yingying lying on the bed. When she saw her sister and brother-in-law coming over, she wanted to sit up, but Cheng Xiaolin quickly stopped her.
"Yingying, just lie down quickly." Cheng Xiaolin said.
"Our family doesn't have that many rules."
She then asked her younger siblings: "When will the baby be born? Have you agreed?"
"I was thinking of giving birth naturally, but there was no movement in my stomach. I will wait for two more days to see if it doesn't work. If it doesn't work, I will have a caesarean section." Liu Yingying said this.
"Okay, you must ensure your own safety first. We don't have to pursue a natural birth." Cheng Xiaolin warned her younger siblings.
Liu Yingying nodded: "Sister, I understand, please sit down quickly."
She then said to her husband Cheng Yunping: "Yunping, please bring the stools and let our father, our mother, and our brother-in-law sit down."
"Dongdong, look who's here, didn't you always say you want to play with your cute sister?" she said.
At this moment, the ward became lively.
Fortunately, this is a single room, so you don't have to worry about disturbing other people.
After everyone sat down, Cao Shujie asked about his brother-in-law's condition in the hospital.
They have been here for three days, but there has been no movement in the past few days. They have also gone for examinations and everything is normal. There is no sign of the amniotic fluid decreasing. If there is any abnormality, they will have a caesarean section.
While they were chatting here, a nurse came over to ask about the situation.
There was nothing unusual, the nurse finished registration and left.
Cheng Yunping also said: "Brother-in-law, I have seen the hospitalization bill, so I just asked, register, 15 yuan is gone, what is secondary care called?"
Cao Shujie smiled: "If I didn't ask, would you be flustered?"
Cheng Yunping thought about it carefully and realized that this was really the case.
He smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, it's not that I feel bad about money, I just feel that they earn it too easily."
He said: "How difficult it is for us to make some money."
"Haha!" Cao Shujie laughed.
They stayed here until it was almost dark. The restaurant brought Liu Yingying a nutritious meal that had been ordered in advance. They saw that Liu Yingying had no problem eating, and she was able to come down for a walk and exercise after eating.
When they were about to leave from the hospital, their brother-in-law Cheng Yunping wanted to see them off, but was stopped by Cao Shujie.
Considering that it was inconvenient for the couple to be in the hospital, they brought their nephew Cheng Tiandong back before leaving.
When Cheng Tiandong left, he kept looking back at his mother lying on the hospital bed, with an expression of reluctance in his eyes.
But not long after getting in the car, Mengmeng and I started playing together.
When we returned to Chengjiapo, it was already dark.
Mother-in-law Li Xiaojuan was busy making dinner, while Cao Shujie and his wife watched the three children together.
His father-in-law, Cheng Rengui, went to feed the cows.
Cao Shujie originally wanted to help, but was stopped by his mother-in-law.
They were still thinking that it was a coincidence that they came here just in time for their sister-in-law Liu Yingying to give birth to a baby, but they didn't know how many days it would take to give birth.
"It's hard to say. It may take a few days, or it may happen today. It's all uncertain." Cheng Xiaolin said casually.
Cao Shujie believes that what his wife said is true. There are many similar examples.
But not long after his wife finished speaking, his mother-in-law Li Xiaojuan had just made dinner. Before the family had time to eat, Li Xiaojuan's cell phone on the sofa rang.
"Mengmeng, get your grandma's cell phone." Cheng Xiaolin said.
Mengmeng was very obedient and ran over quickly, holding the phone and handing it to her grandma.
Li Xiaojuan took the phone and looked at it: "It's Yunping calling."
Hearing what he said, Cao Shujie subconsciously looked at his wife, and Cheng Xiaolin also looked at him. The two of them were still thinking, it couldn't be such a coincidence, right? They were about to give birth just after saying this?
Has this mouth been opened?
But the reality is exactly what they thought.
After answering the phone, Li Xiaojuan showed some anxious expression on her face: "Yingying is about to give birth. She just felt a stomachache and now she is in the delivery room."
"Yunping doesn't know what to do alone."
"Hey, if we leave a little later, maybe we can catch up." Li Xiaojuan said anxiously.
Cao Shujie advised him: "Mom, don't worry, just pack your things and I'll take you to the hospital now."
"I'll go too." Cheng Xiaolin said.
But Cao Shujie told her: "Don't go. You look after the three children at home. I'll go over and help."
"Otherwise, taking the three of them to the hospital would not be enough to cause trouble." Cao Shujie pointed at Mengmeng and the three of them and said.
Cheng Xiaolin thought that it was indeed the case, so she was not in a hurry to go.
She didn't care about eating at the moment, so she helped her mother pack her things and load them into the car.
Cao Shujie drove his mother-in-law to the Anwu County People's Hospital.
Cheng Rengui originally wanted to go, but there were still more than 20 cows to take care of at home, and his son had to find someone to take care of them temporarily.
Then I thought that even if he went to the hospital, he wouldn't be able to help, so he just waited at home.
In the car, Li Xiaojuan wished she could fly directly to the hospital.
At this time, she was very worried about something unexpected happening to her daughter-in-law. Fortunately, she waited until they arrived at the hospital. Cao Shujie helped his mother-in-law carry the things to the ward. The ward was empty at the moment.
Cao Shujie called his brother-in-law again and found out that they were in the delivery room on the seventh floor. He put down his things and walked over there.
After coming over, he saw his brother-in-law Cheng Yunping at the door of the delivery room. He was walking anxiously back and forth, unable to stop for a moment.
Seeing them coming, Cheng Yunping ran over: "Mom, brother-in-law."
"What's going on? Wasn't there no movement when we left?" Li Xiaojuan asked anxiously.
Then I heard Cheng Yunping say: "Yingying had been moving for a while after eating. She had to go to the toilet, and suddenly her stomach hurt. We quickly called the doctor, and the doctor asked to come to the delivery room."
"How long have you been in there?" Cao Shujie asked him.
Cheng Yunping said: "It's been almost an hour since I got in. I just got in when I called you."
"I don't know what's going on?" He rubbed his hands back and forth, showing that he was very anxious inside.
