The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 151 Paying wages
When Mengmeng heard her mother say this, she couldn't figure it out, so she asked, "Mom, why?"

"Why don't grandparents want to come?"

Cheng Xiaolin was thinking about how to tell her daughter about this matter, but after much deliberation, she didn't have a better way to say it.

Just thinking of leaving this difficult task to her husband, she said, "Mengmeng, when your father comes out of the shower, you can ask him."

"Oh, okay." Mengmeng was so thoughtful, she was waiting at the stairs for her father to come down after taking a shower.

Cheng Xiaolin went to the kitchen to look at the pot again, and had to say that a well-decorated kitchen is easy to use.

Cheng Xiaolin felt that if the surrounding convenience and related supporting facilities were not considered, the small second-floor house built by themselves was much better than their previous house in Beijing.

When she was busy cooking, Cheng Xiaolin was also listening to the movements outside, for fear that her cuteness would cause her to knock herself again.

It felt like it was only a few minutes, the soup she stewed was not ready yet, and her husband had already come down from the shower upstairs.

"Dad, Dad." Mengmeng yelled loudly.

Cao Shujie felt very comfortable when he heard it.He asked, "Mengmeng, why are you calling Dad?"

Cheng Xiaolin heard her daughter ask loudly: "Dad, why don't grandparents come, I want grandma to play with me."

"Oh, I want to too, but they don't want to come, what do you think?" Cao Shujie asked his daughter.

When Mengmeng heard her father's question, she scratched her head and tried her best, but in the end she couldn't come up with a solution. She was so anxious that she was about to cry: "Dad, I don't know either."

Seeing her serious appearance, Cao Shujie was amused.

Cao Shujie played with Mengmeng in the living room for a while, and Cheng Xiaolin called him over to serve the food.

The first meal after arriving at the new home was simple and simple, but Cao Shujie felt very delicious after eating it.

After dinner, Cao Shujie scrambled to wash the bowls, and when he came back, he saw his wife and daughter eating bananas.

Mengmeng is lazy, she won't chew anything that is slightly harder.

Obviously the apples grown at home are more delicious, but she disliked them being too hard, so she took two bites, left two gaps in the apples, and stopped eating.

Cheng Xiaolin also said: "Husband, buy a juicer another day and squeeze some apple juice for Mengmeng."

Cao Shujie immediately agreed, but he felt that the squeezed juice completely destroyed the original taste and was not good to drink.

That night, after Mengmeng fell asleep, Cao Shujie took his wife to another room.

More than half an hour later, Cheng Xiaolin was lying in her husband's arms, looking up at the roof with the afterglow of moonlight shining in from the window, and vaguely saw a little luster reflected by the lampshade, which was not obvious.

The two quietly enjoyed this rare moment.

……

The next morning, before six in the morning, Cao Shujie got up from the bed, feeling that the temperature in the room hadn’t dropped significantly, it was still around 24 to [-] degrees. The clothes don't feel cold either.

Cao Shujie is very satisfied, he thinks this is the life he wants.

Wearing autumn clothes and johns, I came down from the second floor, went to the connected kitchen on the first floor, turned on the gas stove, boiled millet porridge in a small pot, sprinkled a layer of Xinjiang jujube in it, half covered the pot lid, The fire boiled slowly, and it took about half an hour.

Taking advantage of this time, Cao Shujie started cooking again, making a water egg for his daughter, and then pouring some soy sauce and sesame oil, it smelled delicious.

Seeing that there was still a piece of tofu in the refrigerator, Cao Shujie took it out again, cut it into thin strips, first lightly oiled it, and then fried the tofu with green onions.

About half an hour later, the red dates and millet porridge was ready. When the lid was lifted, a strong smell of dates permeated the kitchen, and the smell made the appetite.

Stir it with a spoon again, the red dates inside are boiled directly, the jujube meat is fused into the millet porridge, and the millet porridge is dyed maroon.

Daha and Erha's dogs were barking outside, and Cao Shujie remembered that he hadn't walked the dog today.

I went to the bedroom on the second floor to see that his wife and daughter were still sleeping. Cao Shujie left a text message to his wife, telling her that breakfast was ready and kept warm in the pot, and he was going to walk the dog.

Putting on thick clothes, he led the dog and left the house. He went directly to the dam from this intersection in the north, and within a few minutes he came to the Yellow River Barrage Dam. Seeing that there was no one on the dam, Cao Shujie untied the rope for them. Let them run wild for a while.

Cao Shujie found a stone strip by the side of the road and sat down, waiting there slowly.

About half an hour later, the four dogs ran back to him one after another, rubbing against his body one by one, showing the intimacy between themselves and Cao Shujie.

In this way, Cao Shujie got all the soil and grass residue on them, and Cao Shujie was so angry that he wanted to slap them twice.

But looking at the innocent faces of the four brothers, Cao Shujie couldn't slap him anymore.

He was thinking about preparing a special set of clothes the next time he went out for a walk with the dog.

When he returned home from the dam with them, his wife Cheng Xiaolin was eating in the living room on the first floor.

"Honey, it's time to eat." Cao Shujie greeted his wife.

Cheng Xiaolin turned her head and looked at him: "I just got up, and I was thinking about making breakfast, who knew you would make it first."

"I woke up early, and I don't have much to do. I can't just wait for you to get up and cook." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

"Hey." Cheng Xiaolin said with a smile, "Go wash up, change your clothes, and get ready for breakfast."

The dirt and hay clippings on her husband's body are obvious at a glance.

"Is Mengmeng awake yet?" Cao Shujie asked her.

"Well, I guess she has to sleep until 8 o'clock." Cheng Xiaolin said.

It really made his wife guess right. When Cao Shujie went to the mountain after breakfast at home, Mengmeng was still awake.

Cao Shujie had already gone out of the gate, when he suddenly remembered something, he returned home and asked his wife, "Wife, do you have any money?"

"How much do you want?" Cheng Xiaolin didn't even ask why.

Cao Shujie said: "Give me 1600, and I will pay Brother Chao."

"Salary will be paid so soon?" Cheng Xiaolin was really stunned this time.

But she still didn't say much, and stood up happily to get money for Cao Shujie.

After a while, she came back with a wad of cash and handed it to Cao Shujie: "Hey, it's exactly 1600 yuan."

"Okay, I'm leaving." Cao Shujie folded the money and stuffed it into his trousers pocket, and went out smartly, along the mountain road not far away, and arrived in the orchard not long after.

"It's so convenient." Cao Shujie was particularly moved.

He found that living here was much more convenient than living with his parents.

Not surprisingly, his father and Cao Shuchao came early, and they were busy in the orchard.

Seeing Cao Shujie coming, Cao Jianguo also said to him: "Shujie, did you drink too much yesterday and didn't get up in the morning?"

Hearing what his father said, Cao Shujie waved his hand directly: "Dad, what's that little wine? I sobered up last night. I got up at 5 o'clock this morning to cook and go for a walk with the dog."

"Look, I'm doing you a favor." Cao Jianguo said to him.

Cao Shujie wisely shut up this time, not arguing with his father about this issue.

"Brother Chao, come here." Turning around and seeing Cao Shuchao who was working, Cao Shujie called out to him.

"Shujie, you have something to do with me." Cao Shuchao asked him.

Cao Shujie smiled and asked, "Brother Chao, do you remember how long you have been here?"

"I came on the 4th, and it's been 27 days since today." Cao Shuchao said without thinking.

From the day of the 4th, he has been working here for 12 hours every day, without a day off in between.

And during this time, Cao Shuchao worked hard, never complained, and never complained.

If the best outstanding employee is selected, Cao Shujie will give him this award without hesitation!

It can also be seen from this how much a middle-aged man who needs money can carry?
"Brother Chao, look at the end of November and today, tomorrow will be December, and the Chinese New Year is less than two months away."

"In the new year, I plan to buy another batch of calves, and I will also buy sheep and pigs. I may also raise a little bit of domestic geese. At that time, our workload will definitely be greater than now, and the task will be more difficult. Brother Chao, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders."

When Cao Shuchao saw this scene, he felt both familiar and unfamiliar, as if he had seen some big bosses tell their employees this way in TV dramas, but he never thought that he would enjoy this treatment one day.

Just when he was thinking about what Cao Shujie would say next, he didn't expect Cao Shujie to follow the routine.

"But Brother Chao, don't worry, I really can't do it at that time, I will continue to recruit people, but no matter how many people come in in the future, we will have corresponding bonuses and subsidies for good work."

Speaking of this, Cao Shujie paused for a moment, looked at Cao Shuchao and said seriously: "Brother Chao, you have been working for 27 days this month, and your salary is 1485 yuan. In addition, I always think that you do a very good job, so I decided to give you another You pay a performance bonus of 115 yuan, plus one piece, the total is 1600 yuan."

After finishing speaking, Cao Shujie took out the stack of money folded in half from his trouser pocket, regardless of Cao Shujie's dumbfounded appearance, he handed the money to Cao Shuchao, and specifically told him: "Brother Chao, count it and see if it's right. "

Cao Shuchao: "..."

He suddenly didn't know what to say.

From the very beginning, he never thought that Cao Shujie called him here to pay him wages.

Today is the end of the month. According to his previous experience of working for others, it is considered a good company to pay wages before the 20th of the next month. It is not uncommon for a whole month or even two or three months to be delayed.

The most outrageous thing is that he followed others to do the project, which could delay his salary for a year at once, and then settled the bills one after another, and he still hasn't settled the balance.

But his mother was looking for a job in the village, and no one thought that he would be paid at the end of the month.

What made him even more outrageous was that there was an extra bonus for this job.

Even if there is only a bonus of 115 yuan, in Cao Shuchao's heart, these are two completely different concepts.

"Shujie, this month is not over yet, why did you pay me my salary now?" Cao Shuchao asked.

Then I heard Cao Shujie say: "Brother Chao, don't think too much, I am like this, you work hard, and I can't do immoral things that keep delaying your salary."

"Besides, when I was working, I was paid daily. I can't say that I pay others in time. If I come to my own people, I won't be able to pay wages." Cao Shujie said very truthfully.

Listening to Cao Shuchao's ears made him feel valued.

Don't think it's a big deal to pay wages in advance, but in Cao Shuchao's view, the nature is completely different, which makes him feel at ease.

At first, he thought it was just an expedient measure, to work first with Cao Shujie and earn less money, but now Cao Shuchao had the idea of ​​continuing to work as long as Cao Shujie didn't kick him out.

In addition, this bonus is also the first bonus he has received in his life.

Cao Jianguo saw this scene from the side, and listening to what his son said, he also supported his son's approach.

He thought to himself: "My son is quite good at buying people's hearts."

Cao Jianguo is not a person who doesn't understand anything. He has watched TV dramas of the Three Kingdoms, listened to storytelling, and knows some methods of great leaders, but he didn't expect his son to start playing this game quietly.

But that doesn't mean his son did anything wrong.

Cao Shujie didn't know what his father was thinking, he did it because Cao Shuchao did a good job.

As for the extra bonus, Cao Shujie did not give it blindly.

115 yuan is equivalent to Cao Shuchao's current two-day salary, which is equivalent to three times the normal eight-hour salary. In Cao Shujie's view, this amount is more reasonable from the perspective of long-term development.

In the following time, Cao Shuchao didn't need Cao Shujie to talk, he worked harder and became more enthusiastic.

When returning home for dinner at around 12 noon, Cao Shuchao called his wife as soon as he entered the door: "Qianqian, come here."

This tone was quite powerful and confident. Ma Wenqian looked at her husband in surprise, wondering what happened to make him dare to be so arrogant.

"What's the matter?" Ma Wenqian asked while looking at him without moving a step.

"Hey!" Cao Shuchao waved at his wife, "Qianqian, come here, come here quickly, I'll tell you something good."

"What good can you do?" Ma Wenqian was a little irritable. She said, "Speak if you have something to say, and fart if you have something to say. Hurry up!"

"You are really boring." Cao Shuchao took out a plastic bag folded into a rectangular shape from his trouser pocket. He opened the plastic bag carefully, took out the 1600 yuan that Cao Shujie gave him today, and handed it to his wife. : "Hey, this is the salary plus bonus that Shujie just sent me today, a total of 1600 yuan, you count."

Ma Wenqian was immediately dumbfounded.

It never occurred to her that her husband called her this.

After a while, she came to her senses and said, "Shuchao, isn't it right? You just went there at the beginning of this month. This month hasn't finished yet. Why did you get paid?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong again: "Did Shujie make a calculation wrong? I did the calculation for you. If you worked for 27 days, it should be 1485 yuan. Why did he give you 1600..."

The next moment, Ma Wenqian said seriously: "Shu Chao, we have no money, but we can't do such unconscionable things. If Shujie gave it wrong, let's go to him now and return the extra money to him." .”

"Honey, I told you that the extra money is a bonus that Shujie gave me for my good performance. Why don't you believe me!" Cao Shuchao felt aggrieved.

Ma Wenqian heard him say this, and then looked at his serious appearance, and the expression on her face also became serious: "Shu Chao, tell me carefully what's going on?"

Just now, Ma Wenqian remembered another thing, she said: "Go wash your hands first, I brought you food, tell me while you eat."

"Okay!" Cao Shuchao agreed.

In the following time, Cao Shuchao narrated to his wife what happened this morning while eating.

After hearing her husband finished speaking, Ma Wenqian rubbed her face with her hands, and she looked at the opposite husband in a daze. In the past, she thought that his stupidity was because of his stupid brain, and there was a lack of string in his brain.

But now a word popped out of Ma Wenqian's mind: "Fools are blessed with fools!"

If a fool like his husband hadn't met a conscientious boss, how would he have been given any bonus?
Just a fool's dream.

But after calling her husband back from the outside, Ma Wenqian never thought that her husband would meet such a conscientious boss when he was looking for a job in his hometown.

Cao Shu ate the two steamed buns super quickly. He ate it so fast that he choked uncomfortably.

When Ma Wenqian saw it, she quickly handed him a water glass. After Cao Shuchao drank the water and smoothed down the steamed buns, he asked his wife, "Now do you believe what I say?"

"Believe it, I believe it, okay?" Ma Wenqian changed her attitude just now, seeing that her husband's glass was out of water, she took the thermos and poured him another glass to cool down.

Then he said: "Shu Chao, Shujie treats us like this, we must do a good job, and we must not disappoint the value he has placed on us."

Cao Shuchao nodded, and he said, "I know, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job."

"Well, I believe in you." Ma Wenqian nodded heavily, never before at this moment, she felt very at ease and felt safe, and felt that this family finally had a support.

She then said: "But don't tire yourself out, you can't stand it after a long time if you do this every day."

"Honey, I'm fine, and I'm not tired. Shujie is willing to give us this opportunity while I can still make money. It's nothing if I work harder."

"Our son needs money to go to school, our mother needs money to buy medicine, and our family also needs money to buy chemical fertilizers and pesticides in the field."

"It all costs money, I have to earn money, I couldn't do it before, but now I have this opportunity, I have to make good use of it." Cao Shuchao also said it quite slipperily.

At this moment, Ma Wenqian looked at her husband with admiration.

She thought to herself that she must have been mistaken before. Her husband looks very stupid and naive, but he is so wise and stupid, right?

But Cao Shuchao was not finished yet.

He has a stupid mouth and can't say anything provocative, but because of this, what he said was very real, and every sentence came to his heart, which made his wife Ma Wenqian feel warm after hearing it.

"Wife, you only spend money for the family, and I don't see you are willing to buy something for yourself, even if you buy some fruit, you are reluctant to eat, and the clothes you wear are from a few years ago."

Ma Wenqian thought: "It turns out that he remembers all my sacrifices over the years."

　Just now, my daughter made trouble for me and asked her mother to watch, so I hurriedly finished it.
