The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 635: The priceless 'local specialty' (1.15 million) Good night
September 9th, there are four days left before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Let Song Baoming drive and take Cao Shujie to the county seat.

The trunk of the car was filled with boxes of kiwi fruit, mixed packages of strawberry wine and kiwi fruit wine, several cans of velvet antler slices in transparent bottles, and mixed packages of preserved fruits in boxes.

And freshly killed beef.

Recalling that when he went to pick up beef from Li Jiagan, Li Jiagan looked at the beef with greedy eyes. Cao Shujie didn't even think about leaving 10 kilograms of beef for him, as if he was a cow.

At that time, Li Jiagan was so happy that he didn't know what to say. He insisted on giving money to Cao Shujie, but Cao Shujie didn't take any money.

Previously, he had promised Li Jiagan that he would leave some beef for him next time he slaughtered cattle. This time, Cao Shujie fulfilled his original promise.

Xia Changhong, Chen Xingquan, Ji Guangyou, Song Shuli and other people who helped Cao Shujie in the early days. Cao Shujie did not forget any of them and gave them a copy.

After delivering the goods, Cao Shujie asked Song Baoming to drive towards Mingshi Mingdu Community.

He also called Lian Xuezhu on the way. The two chatted for a while and learned that Lian Xuezhu was resting at home. Cao Shujie said that he missed the food cooked by his aunt and wanted to go home to have a meal.

Lian Xuezhu was lying on the sofa at home watching TV at this time. He really didn't expect Cao Shujie to be able to say this now. For a moment, his emotions surged and he felt particularly complicated.

Especially after he retired, he realized more deeply that most of his previous connections disappeared with his retirement. The warmth and coldness of human relationships and the harshness of the world were clearly reflected at this time.

So far, only a few old friends who had really good personal relationships in the past still keep in touch.

What Lian Xuezhu didn't expect was that Cao Shujie treated him no differently than before.

Cao Shujie's attitude even moved Lian Xuezhu a little.

Lian Xuezhu felt that he only felt what real human touch was after retirement.

This is completely different from the previous ones.

After hanging up the phone and putting the phone aside, Lian Xuezhu said to his wife Dang Wanli who was busy in the house: "Wanli, stop working now and hurry up and cook."

"Didn't you say you won't eat at noon? I can't eat much, so I shouldn't waste my cooking." Dang Wanli said angrily.

She retired a year earlier than Lian Xuezhu. After retirement, they both stayed at home and had nothing to do. As time went by, they didn't like each other, so they were busy with their own affairs.

Neither of them ate much at noon, and Dang Wanli simply stopped making lunch.

If the two of them are really hungry and can't bear it, they'll have some snacks and some fruit.

When Dang Wanli was thinking about continuing her work, she suddenly heard her wife shout: "Shujie is coming over. He said he wants to eat your cooking, so hurry up and prepare it."

"Shujie is coming? Why didn't you tell me earlier." Dang Wanli quickly put down her work and walked towards the kitchen.

As I walked, I kept talking about Lian Xuezhu.

Lian Xuezhu rolled his eyes and didn't bother to talk about his wife.

Cao Shujie arrived faster than Lian Xuezhu expected.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, it had only been about 10 minutes since Cao Shujie called him. When Lian Xuezhu quickly got up and opened the door, he saw a man standing outside the door with two boxes in his arms and a smile on his face. Cao Shujie, for a moment, Lian Xuezhu's mind went blank, and he suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Uncle, I'm not welcome." Cao Shujie greeted with a smile.

My hands are still holding something, but I can't open my hands for a hug.

Lian Xuezhu quickly opened the door and waved to him: "Come in quickly, I just didn't expect you to come so fast."

"Hey, uncle, isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival coming soon? I've been very busy recently and can't get away. I just happened to come over and see you when I have some free time today."

Cao Shujie came in and put the two boxes he was holding on the ground. He straightened up and looked at Lian Xuezhu seriously. He suddenly discovered something very interesting.

"Uncle, why do I see that you have fewer gray hairs than before? You don't have so many worries after retirement, you are in a good mood, and you are younger again." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

One sentence made Lian Xuezhu amused.

He said: "You are retired, why are you still thinking about so many things? If your brother hadn't found a partner to get married yet, I would have been 5 years younger by just worrying about this matter for him."

While the two were talking, Song Baoming came in from the outside carrying some things.

Two boxes of fruit wine, one box of preserved fruit, two boxes of kiwi fruit, and a bottle of velvet antler slices.

Finally, there is a bag of about 10 pounds of beef.

Cao Shujie introduced these things respectively.

Lian Xuezhu is already very familiar with fruit wine and likes it very much.

It has a fruity aroma and the alcohol content is not high. When he is craving for wine, he will open it and drink a little. Sometimes he will drink it with his wife.

When Dang Wanli heard the sound, she also came out of the kitchen. Seeing that Cao Shujie had brought so many things, Dang Wanli was also very emotional.

If anyone's feelings towards the couple have never changed, Dang Wanli thinks that Cao Shujie ranks among the top three.

"Shujie, why do you bring so many things? Can't you just take them to other places?" Dang Wanli said to him.

But Cao Shujie was not happy: "Auntie, you are exaggerating. If I have good things, I will give them to you first, and then give the rest to others."

"You kid." Dang Wanli pointed at Cao Shujie and wanted to say something to him, but couldn't get the words out of her mouth.

She went back to the kitchen to cook.

Lian Xuezhu heard what Cao Shujie said just now and knew that there must be some moisture in his words. However, Cao Shujie's meaning was very clear. People still valued him as much as always and did not deliberately alienate them because they retired from public office. This It made Lian Xuezhu and Dang Wanli feel truly valued.

While eating, they also talked about Lian Qijian studying in Cao Shujie's factory.

Lian Qijian went to Cao Shujie's factory at the end of June, and was then assigned to study at various positions by Cao Shujie. Counting the past two months, Lian Qijian had not finished studying in these two months.

Cao Shujie talked about his next plan.

"Uncle, don't worry, my brother is with me, and I will definitely not let him be idle." Cao Shujie said, "After a while, I will go to Suzhou TV Station to visit the station director Chen Dongliang and discuss advertising with him. , when the time comes, I will take my brother with me and let him learn something so that he can help me take care of things in the future."

He seemed to be talking very chatty: "Don't worry, leave Qijian to me. I will definitely not let you down. I dare not say more. As long as he studies hard, he can learn something in the future. In a few years, Xuemeng Food I gave him the responsibility for the third branch of the factory."

Lian Xuezhu thought that he had lost his use value after retirement, and he himself had passed the stage of being easily excited. Who knew that when he heard Cao Shujie say this, he was still very excited.

……

Cao Shujie had a lot to do. After visiting Lian Xuezhu, he went to Liu Wansong, Fang Qiang, Li Guorui, Xie Yizhong, Zhang Shuo and others in the county.

Finally, I went to see Xia Zhenjiang.

After all the familiar people in the county were gone, Cao Shujie took his things and went to the city to visit Xiang Yuheng, Zhu Lingyun, Miao Haiyi, Zhou Wentao, Zhao Ran and others.

For Xiang Yuheng, Zhu Lingyun, and Liang Shihong, Cao Shujie would definitely not be stingy and prepare generous gifts for them.

After finishing his work here, Cao Shujie went home to rest for a night. The next day, he loaded the car with things and went to Quancheng.

Guan Guotai, Xia Zonghai, Tian Jing and these others all wanted to visit.

Especially for Xia Zonghai, Cao Shujie chatted with him for a long time, and also took the initiative to contact Chen Dongliang, the director of Suzhou TV Station, to see if he could be named in "The Most Powerful Brain" to be broadcast in January next year.Xia Zonghai didn't expect Cao Shujie to be so decisive. Perhaps because of Wang Qinghui's relationship, Xia Zonghai now admired the young man Cao Shujie. He once again helped Cao Shujie and asked Chen Dongliang for him.

Once again, he told the other party that his nephew 'Cao Shujie' was going to do a title advertisement on the variety show "The Strongest Brain" on Suzhou TV Station.

"Lao Xia, is he the young man you talked about last time? The two programs he selected were both finished at that time."

"Yes, that's him, Lao Chen. Xiao Cao told me that he will do a title advertisement on "The Strongest Brain" this time. The advertising fee will be subject to your rules." Xia Zonghai said this.

Cao Shujie listened on the side and did not deny Xia Zonghai's statement.

He was very grateful to Xia Zonghai.

Theoretically speaking, it was common sense for Xia Zonghai not to help him, but Xia Zonghai repeatedly extended his hand at critical moments.

Cao Shujie must remember this love in his heart.

Just like Lian Xuezhu helped him at the earliest time, it was also the most difficult time for Cao Shujie after returning to the countryside from the capital.

At that time, everything was like a tangled mess. I wanted to solve the problem, but I couldn't find a clue at all.

Xia Zonghai chatted with Chen Dongliang, director of Suzhou TV Station, for about 10 minutes before hanging up the phone.

Finally, he told Cao Shujie that when he was free, Cao Shujie could just go to Jiangsu TV Station to consult with Chen Dongliang.

"Xiao Cao, if Lao Chen doesn't help you after you pass, you can call me and see if I don't scold him like a bitch." This is what Xia Zonghai said.

Cao Shujie nodded repeatedly to express his gratitude.

At the same time, I also specifically told Xia Zonghai that the velvet antler slices in the transparent jar are good products that are above semi-wax level.

Xia Zonghaiguang understood in his heart when he heard the term "half-level or above".

Most people have no idea what this means.

What Guan Guotai didn't expect was that when Cao Shujie sent something, he also prepared one for his leader Wang Qinghui.

However, Cao Shujie did not see Wang Qinghui in the end, and Guan Guotai delivered the things on his behalf.

Cao Shujie was a little disappointed, but he knew this was the most normal thing.

The last time Wang Qinghui visited Xuemeng Food Factory, it felt like a coincidence to visit Caojiazhuang.

Cao Shujie never counted on that one-time relationship, and a solid communication channel was established between him and Wang Qinghui.

After returning from the provincial capital, Cao Shujie packed up a cart of things and took his wife and daughter to the home of his father-in-law and mother-in-law in Chengjiapo.

Cao Shujie didn't know that the things he gave to Wang Qinghui were eventually transferred by Guan Guotai.

Seeing two boxes of super-grade kiwis, two boxes of fruit wine, two boxes of preserved fruits, two cans of full-wax velvet antler slices, and about 20 kilograms of beef, this was the first time for Wang Qinghui to receive such a pure 'local specialty'.

But he knew that despite its inconspicuousness, this thing was worth a lot of money.

"Cathay, where is Xiao Cao?" Wang Qinghui raised his head and asked Guan Guotai.

Guan Guotai told him that Cao Shujie had already left.

"You were in a meeting at the time, and I didn't call you." Guan Guotai said.

"That's really a pity. I still want to meet and chat with Xiao Cao. It's been a long time since I saw a young man as pure as Xiao Cao." Wang Qinghui said.

Guan Guotai: "..."

He suddenly didn't know what to say. It seemed that even he didn't understand the leader's intention.

But this is not important. He said to Wang Qinghui: "Cao Shujie asked me to convey a thank you to you. He said that if you hadn't visited Xuemeng Food Factory, he wouldn't have been able to borrow so much money to solve the factory's funding problem. .”

"Haha, I just said that this little slot is very pure. When I asked him, he was obsessed with getting money from me. I didn't expect that I would leave, and he would borrow my name for a loan." Wang Qinghui laughed. .

He admired capable young people very much. Although Cao Shujie was not in public office, it did not prevent Wang Qinghui from looking at him differently.

"It's August [-]th again, and the year goes by so fast." Wang Qinghui didn't know what he was thinking of, and he was a little lost.

Guan Guotai didn't say anything at this time. He knew that at the leadership level, they focused on different things, and he couldn't get a word in at all.

……

Chengjiapo!
Cheng Xiaolin’s natal family!

After Cao Shujie brought his wife and daughter over, he was warmly welcomed by his mother-in-law Li Xiaojuan.

When father-in-law Cheng Rengui saw them coming, the smile on his face never broke.

Especially seeing Mengmeng, the old couple kept laughing from ear to ear.

However, Cao Shujie was still a little confused when he didn't see his brother-in-law and his wife.

When Li Xiaojuan saw her granddaughter, she stuffed her with a red envelope. The red envelope was quite thick.

Cao Shujie didn't want to take it, but his wife Cheng Xiaolin reached out and took it.

"What are you doing?" Cao Shujie said to his wife when no one else was around.

But Cheng Xiaolin said plausibly: "Shujie, you don't understand, my mother gave this to my daughter."

"Why not?" Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie was speechless, feeling that what his wife said made sense.

But there was also one thing that made Cao Shujie feel quite sad.

His brother-in-law and his father-in-law and mother-in-law lived separately.

According to his mother-in-law Li Xiaojuan, Cao Shujie, his brother-in-law Cheng Yunping, and his sister-in-law Liu Yingying rented a larger factory area outside to raise cattle. There was also room for their family of three.

That place is not far from Chengjiapo, but now the father and son are busy with their own affairs.

Cao Shujie always felt that this matter was mysterious, but his wife Cheng Xiaolin seemed to have already known about it and didn't find it strange at all.

"What's all the fuss about? They're both grown up, and Dongdong is so grown up too. Isn't it normal to be separated from your parents?"

Cheng Xiaolin said to her husband: "Shujie, if you can't figure it out, don't we live separately from Mengmeng's grandparents?"

Saying this, Cao Shujie suddenly realized that he was not entangled in the matter between his brother-in-law and his father-in-law, each raising his own cattle. Cao Shujie even thought that this was good, at least it would not create property. disputes on.

As for how his father-in-law's property will be distributed in the future, that is also a matter for his father-in-law Cheng Rengui. Neither Cao Shujie nor his wife cares about it.

After learning that Cao Shujie and his family of three were coming, Cheng Yunping and his wife Liu Yingying came over with their son Cheng Tiandong. Everyone gathered together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance.
