The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 245 The Bull Market Rise (4300) Asking for a Monthly Ticket
"Why? Dongdong is your cousin." Cao Shujie was quite puzzled.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his daughter shaking her head: "He doesn't talk, it doesn't mean anything."

After speaking, Mengmeng pedaled hard on the pink mini bicycle and ran forward.

After passing the old man, she turned her head to look at the old man and shouted, "Grandpa, hurry up."

"Oh, my old arms and legs can't keep up with your speed." Cao Zhenghu said so, but he still accelerated his pace, barely able to keep up with Mengmeng's speed.

Cao Shujie saw that his grandfather was running like this and might fall down at any time, so he ran over quickly and took the red silk cloth from his grandfather: "Grandpa, I will drag her away."

"Slow down." Cao Zhenghu slowed down as he spoke.

Cao Shujie turned his head and smiled at his grandfather, "It's okay."

Mengmeng is getting more and more vigorous in riding a bicycle, but she is small and doesn't have much strength, so she still can't keep up with her father.

Seeing her father dragging her to run with the red silk in front, Mengmeng still thought it was fun, and shouted: "Hurry up, Dad."

"I'm going after you."

Unknowingly, Cao Shujie took his daughter and ran to the door of the house. Before entering the yard, he heard a dog barking in the yard.

There was also an adult's voice: "Dongdong, just go over and have a look, dogs don't bite people."

"Eh? Mom is lying." Mengmeng said.

She said, "Xiaobai just bites. Let me see which fool believes what my mother says."

Cao Shujie heard that his daughter judged his wife in this way, thinking that Mengmeng was not far from being beaten.

The next moment, Cao Shujie dragged his cute pink mini bicycle into the yard with a red silk cloth. Just as he entered, he saw his nephew Cheng Tiandong standing in front of the doghouse.

His grandmother Li Xiaojuan, Cao Shujie's mother-in-law, was standing behind the little guy to cheer him on.

When Dongdong saw the five little dogs in the kennel, he couldn't move his eyes away.

He thought the five little dogs looked fluffy, so interesting.

But Daha and the other four brothers next to him didn't like the little doll who coveted their brother.

If it wasn't for the hostess, Cheng Xiaolin, who was watching them at the door, the four Daha brothers would teach that little kid a lesson no matter what.

But when they saw Mengmeng, Daha and Erha immediately squinted their eyes, shook their heads, and looked very happy.

If you look carefully, you will find that there is a flattering expression on their dog's face, which is really incredible.

"Daha, what are you doing?" Mengmeng ran to the kennel and shouted into it.

Then she turned around to look at her little cousin Cheng Tiandong, and snorted with a slanted face, as if to say: "Look, how powerful I am!"

Cao Shujie couldn't see it, and shouted: "Mengmeng, what's the matter with you? Don't you shout when you see grandma?"

"Grandma." Mengmeng is very knowledgeable about current affairs, so she quickly called her grandma.

"Eh!"

When Li Xiaojuan saw her granddaughter, she smiled and waved to Mengmeng: "Mengmeng, have you grown taller again? Come here and let me see."

"Grandma, I can eat very well, and I can eat a lot of fruit." Mengmeng spread her hands, the expression on her little face was particularly exaggerated.

Seeing her amused look, the adults all laughed.

Mengmeng looked at her cousin Cheng Tiandong, and shouted again: "Brother Dongdong, how are you?"

It's a pity that Cheng Tiandong's eyes kept falling on the little dog in the kennel, and he didn't respond at all to his cousin's cute shouts.

It's no wonder Mengmeng doesn't want to talk to him.

"Mom, let's go into the house to drink some water and have dinner later." Cao Shujie said.

Then he turned to look at his wife and asked, "Is the meal ready?"

"The pork ribs are about to come out of the pot, and my mother is frying chicken, and there is a Qingjiang fish in the steamer, which will be ready soon." Cheng Xiaolin said.

After finishing speaking, Cheng Xiaolin hurried to the kitchen to help her mother-in-law cook together.

……

Her mother had just arrived about 10 minutes ago.

Her mother-in-law came back from buying vegetables and meat in Qingshi Town an hour earlier than her mother.

After arriving home, her mother-in-law Wang Yuelan began to prepare the dishes, and even told her that even if they were prepared in advance, she couldn't let her mother-in-law come and wait for the dishes to be eaten.

After Li Xiaojuan came to Caojiazhuang by the township bus, according to his daughter, she got off at the first stop of the township bus as soon as it entered Caojiazhuang, and saw her son-in-law standing outside at the stop sign.

When Li Xiaojuan came home with her grandson and her son-in-law, the two-story building was beyond her imagination.

When I usually call her niece, I hear her niece Cheng Xiaolin mention the newly built house, but I never thought that the house can be built so magnificently and luxuriously in the countryside.

She was almost dazzled, and she knew it was not cheap.

When she saw her granddaughter coming back from the outside again, her longing for Mengmeng welled up in her heart. Li Xiaojuan looked at her granddaughter, and the more she looked at her, the rarer she became.

Hearing that her daughter said that her mother-in-law had cooked so many dishes, Li Xiaojuan hurriedly said: "Linlin, hurry up and tell your mother-in-law, just cook less."

"If you make too much, you won't be able to eat it, and it's easy to spoil it." Li Xiaojuan said.

But before Cheng Xiaolin went in, Cao Shujie said: "Mom, when you come to our house, you can eat and rest with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about other things."

When Li Xiaojuan heard what her son-in-law said, she stopped talking about it.

Cao Shujie asked: "Mom, my dad is raising cattle now, how are they doing?"

When Li Xiaojuan heard her son-in-law asking about this, she seemed to have a lot to say: "It's good, your dad is not afraid of being tired or dirty, and he is willing to endure hardships. It really gave him some experience. We watched on TV and said that now beef The price has increased by more than two yuan from the beginning of the year, if it continues like this, there is a high probability that it will be sold at a good price by the end of the year."

This is true!

At the beginning of the year, the price of live cattle for slaughter was more than 9 yuan, but now it has almost risen to 11 yuan, and the price is still rising steadily.

If this trend continues, Cao Shujie thinks that when he prepares to sell cattle in June and July, the price of live cattle for slaughter may rise to around 12 yuan.

Calculated based on the weight of a slaughtered cow ranging from 1300 to 1500 catties, the price of a cow is at least 15000 yuan, and his 50 cows are another huge income.

However, the investment in raising cattle is different from his planting. Over the past year, Cao Shujie has continued to purchase feed, corn, and bean cakes, and the cost is not small.

Coupled with the labor input, the actual profit in breeding is really not as high as the profit he earns from selling fruits in planting.

But this is also something that can't be helped. Breeding and planting are two different things. Cao Shujie can have the current scale and income, and he thinks it is already very good.

The next step, in the long run, is definitely to buy the cows and breed the calves yourself.

After regaining his senses, he heard his mother-in-law say with a look of hope: "If all goes well, the five calves bought at the beginning of the year will grow to 15 to 000 catties by the end of the year, and it will cost more than [-] yuan." .”

"Sell all 5 cows, and you have 8 to [-] yuan, which is much better than your father working outside."

"In addition, I discussed it with your father and took out the family's savings to buy another seven or eight calves. I can continue to do so at that time." Li Xiaojuan thought so.

But Cao Shujie had to remind his mother-in-law: "Mom, you can't just count the price, you also have to count the investment for this year."

"I know this. It's nothing more than corn, bean cakes, and fodder."

"Your father often mows the grass, so he eats less feed. Generally speaking, a cow can see a profit of 5000 yuan. After a year, it is a little more than what your father earns working outside." Li Xiaojuan has a heart account.

She said: "Besides, it's good now. If there is anything at home, your dad can help. Unlike when he was working outside, he couldn't help with anything at home. He had to rent a house when he was working outside. , It also costs money to eat, and overall, it can save a lot of money.”

This is true, Cao Shujie didn't ask any more questions.

"Mom, do you have enough money to buy a calf?" Cao Shujie asked.

"We are enough, but the money is not enough. Your dad has saved some money in the past few years, and it doesn't cost much to eat and drink at home. You can get by if you squeeze."

"Uncle." Seeing that his little sister ignored him, the little guy Cheng Tiandong raised his head and called Cao Shujie.

"Dongdong, what's the matter with you?" Cao Shujie squatted down and asked with a smile.

Cheng Tiandong pouted, not knowing what to say.

Cao Shujie remembered something, he said: "Dongdong, come with me, I'll get you toys to play with."

When the little guy heard the toy, a smile appeared on his unhappy face, and he followed Cao Shujie and ran into the house.

Mengmeng saw her father and cousin entering the room, she didn't care about that, the room was full of toys she didn't want to play with, and it was nothing rare, her father said several times that she would take them and sell them, just give them away. People don't care.

"Xiaobai, come here." Mengmeng waved to the pug Xiaobai, still thinking about playing with it.

Cao Shujie took his nephew to the room where his daughter kept her toys.

Cheng Tiandong was dumbfounded when he saw the room full of toys.

I never thought there would be so many toys, I didn't even dare to dream.

"Uncle!" Cheng Tiandong shouted again. When he looked up at Cao Shujie, his eyes were a little timid.

Cao Shujie pointed to the toys in the room, and said to him: "Dongdong, you can see which one you like, just go and play with it."

"Take it home to play when we leave." Cao Shujie glanced outside, and he knew that his daughter hadn't followed.

Seeing his nephew picking out toys, Cao Shujie went to the next room to get some snacks for his nephew.

Originally, he wanted to get some fruit, but seeing that there were no strawberries at home, Cao Shujie thought about taking his nephew to pick some in the orchard on the mountain later.

Cheng Tiandong finally chose a gun and a remote control car, which are basically standard toys for little boys.

I really don’t know how I bought these two toys for Mengmeng?

Li Xiaojuan is also very curious about her daughter's new home. She talked to her son-in-law and mother-in-law just now, but she hasn't had time to take a good look at the two-story building.

Seeing her daughter coming out of the kitchen with a plate, Li Xiaojuan went over to tell her daughter.

"Mom, you can go and see, it's fine." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Li Xiaojuan and Cao Zhenhu greeted each other. When she looked around the house, she was thinking about when she could build such a two-story building. Maybe by that time, her son and daughter-in-law Willing to come back now.

But there is no way to say this.

This meal was cooked by Cheng Xiaolin and her mother-in-law Wang Yuelan, and the dishes were very rich.

During the meal, Li Xiaojuan kept talking about so many dishes that she couldn't finish them all.

"Mom, after dinner, I'll take you to the orchard on the mountain and pick some fresh strawberries to eat." Cao Shujie said.

This proposal was great. Li Xiaojuan was also curious about the orchard his son-in-law spent several million dollars on, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I haven't seen what fresh-picked strawberries look like before."

When Mengmeng heard her father say that she was going to pick strawberries in the orchard, she was even more excited, and shouted: "Dad, I want to pick a lot of strawberries too."

Cao Shujie was puzzled and asked her, "Why are you picking strawberries?"

"Give it to Cao Bingbing and the others. I have made an agreement with them. Whoever gives me a toy to play with, I will give them strawberries." Mengmeng thinks it should be taken for granted.

She Mengmeng will definitely do what she promises to others.

This is really the first time for Cao Shujie to know about this matter. Hearing what his daughter said, Cao Shujie didn’t stop him, and said: “Then I’ll pick a pot for you, and when you go, take your brother Dongdong with you. Let's play, okay?"

Mengmeng scratched her chin with her fingers, thought for a while and said, "Okay."

"What a good boy." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

Cheng Xiaolin said: "Mom, let's eat first. After dinner, I'll take you up to have a look. The orchard is very beautiful."

"Okay!" Li Xiaojuan agreed.

After eating, Wang Yuelan started to clean up the dishes.

Cao Shujie helped his mother wash it up, and then walked together towards the orchard on the mountain.

Li Xiaojuan didn't expect his son-in-law's orchard to be so close.

Walking on the slope and road up the mountain, Li Xiaojuan looked at the road under her feet and asked, "Did you own this mountain road when you contracted it?"

"Wow, the previous one was a bad road. It was built by Shujie with a cost of 10,000+, and the uphill road to the north cost more than this side."

"Ah!" Li Xiaojuan shouted in surprise, she couldn't understand what the girl said.

"You pay so much money to build roads, can you make money?" Li Xiaojuan asked.

Then I heard her daughter say: "It's okay, the main thing is that if the mountain road is not repaired, it will be too difficult to walk, it will be too troublesome to go up and down the mountain, the transportation will be inconvenient, it will delay things, and it will be inconvenient to leave. .”

"Look at how easy the road is now, and some people just drive up it," Cheng Xiaolin said.

Li Xiaojuan thought it was the fruit harvester driving up, so she didn't think much about it.

She walked up with her daughter and son-in-law. After walking the sloping road, she walked to the turning platform, looked at the flowers planted around her, and when she saw the well-organized orchard to the north, Li Xiaojuan was shocked beyond words. described in language.

Before they entered the orchard, they suddenly heard the sound of a car coming from behind them. The group of them subconsciously stood aside. Li Xiaojuan then turned her head and looked back. Within a few seconds, she saw a car coming directly up. Stop not far from them.

"What is this for?" Li Xiaojuan asked.

This kind of car can't collect fruit, can it?

Before Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin could reply, the people in the car had already got off: "Boss Cao, are the strawberries in your orchard still ripe?"

"Yes, you can pick as many as you want." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

He looked familiar to the young man opposite, but he couldn't remember his name for a while.
