The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

Chapter 69 On a Rainy Night, Lao Cao Was Injured

"How is your talk going?" Cheng Xiaolin was lying on the bed and looking at her mobile phone.

Seeing her husband come in, she turned off her phone and put it on the bedside table. Her bare arms were particularly glaring under the warm orange light.

"Daughter-in-law, your arms are really white!" He sighed from the bottom of his heart.

After Cheng Xiaolin heard it, she swung her arms outside and put them back in the blanket: "Xiong Xiang, I'm asking you something serious!"

"It's late at night, wait until I turn off the lights before we talk about business." Cao Shujie said with a smile.

Cheng Xiaolin scolded him: "Don't just think about that all day long, I'm talking about the orchard on the mountain..."

But before she could finish her sentence, a person squeezed into the bed, and the next moment, her mouth was also blocked.

"Take it easy..." Cheng Xiaolin muttered, before finishing a sentence.

The dark clouds in the sky are getting denser and denser, covering the moon so that it is opaque, and the earth is plunged into darkness for a moment, and the moon seems to be displeased with the shameless life below, ashamed to see people.

It was darker, the clouds were thicker, and the wind was stronger.

……

That night, Cao Shujie was sleeping soundly, and then heard a sound of 'jingling' coming from outside, and then heard the strong wind howling, and the rain beating the glass window like splashing water.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of cats meowing and dogs barking came, and it was a little crazy in the rainy night.

"Is it raining?" Cao Shujie was startled, he touched his phone to check that it was only past three o'clock in the morning, so he hurriedly got up.

Cheng Xiaolin was also sleeping at first, but her husband woke up a little loudly, which woke her up.

"Honey, what's the matter?" Cheng Xiaolin rubbed her eyes and asked.

Cao Shujie was a little worried: "It's raining heavily outside, and the wind is also strong. I don't know if the fruit saplings just planted on the mountain can carry it through?"

The main reason is that the planting time is too short, and the rain is too heavy. It would be better if it was planted after a while.

Hearing what her husband said, Cheng Xiaolin also became worried, but she also said, "It should be fine."

"I can't tell. I'll go to the mountain to take a look. Otherwise, I won't be at peace. You should sleep for a while." Cao Shujie didn't go to see it, because he was really worried.

When Cheng Xiaolin heard what he said, she didn't want to sleep, and said, "I'll go with you."

"No, you have to watch Mengmeng." Cao Shujie didn't agree with anything.

The daughter sleeps until midnight, and often has to wake up once or twice, and when there is no one around, she must be crying, Cao Shujie knows it well.

What was the fuss like in the end?

At this time, a light was turned on outside.

Cheng Xiaolin saw the light and asked, "Are our parents awake too?"

Cao Shujie nodded: "[-]% yes, you can lie down for a while, I'll go out and have a look."

When Cao Shujie came out of the bedroom, he saw his father wearing a black split raincoat, rain boots tucked into the rain pants, holding an umbrella in one hand and a flashlight in the other, as if he was about to go out.

"Dad, what are you doing here?" Cao Shujie asked him in a low voice.

Cao Jianguo didn't expect his son to wake up, he said: "You just woke up, the fruit tree seedlings you just planted on the mountain are too short, the rain is too heavy, the wind is too strong, I don't worry, I plan to go up and have a look .”

"Dad, you rest at home, I can go by myself." Cao Shujie felt warm in his heart.

Last night, my father said that he was messing around with farming and not doing his job properly, and now he was concerned about the fruit tree seedlings he had just planted on the mountain, which made him a little ashamed.

"Don't talk nonsense, if you want to go, put on your raincoat and leave quickly." Cao Jianguo said.

"Hey, right away!" Cao Shujie went back to the bedroom to explain the situation to his wife, telling her to wait at home with peace of mind.

Putting on a raincoat and water shoes, he also took an umbrella, and the two of them took two strong flashlights and rode a tricycle towards the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, he parked his tricycle and walked on the muddy path up the mountain. Cao Jianguo pondered for a while before saying, "Shujie, this road really needs to be repaired. If it is a road, we can ride up directly. Can save a lot of time."

"Dad, when the weather clears up, I'll hurry up and find someone to clean it up." Cao Shujie nodded, this was originally planned.

When the father and son came to the gate of the orchard, Cao Jianguo asked his son to open the door, the father and son went in, and then locked the door behind them.

The father and father held an umbrella together and walked towards the depths of the orchard with a flashlight.

At this time, the wind was stronger and the rain was also heavier. The whistling wind carried the rain through the safety zone of the umbrella, and the cold rain was blowing on my face, making it hard to keep my eyes open.

"Shujie, don't worry about the old orchard, let's split up and see if the newly planted fruit trees are okay." Cao Jianguo knew the priorities.

Cao Shujie was not at ease, and told his father: "Dad, you should be careful, the road is slippery under such heavy rain."

"I have been working with your grandfather since I was a child, and I have been working for almost 40 years. How can I not know you?" Cao Jianguo said to him: "You should pay attention to yourself."

"Yeah!" Cao Shujie walked in with a flashlight.

This area has a total of more than 80 mu of land, which may not sound like much, but it is quite different on this stormy night.

Affected by the heavy rain, the light of the flashlight was also blocked and could not shine too far.

Listening to the whistling wind, to be honest, Cao Shujie was a little nervous, always feeling that something unclean was following him, making waves in the bloody wind!

"His grandma's, I have to hurry up and find a way to get the two dogs." Cao Shujie began to think about this matter again.

He thought that if he had two dogs with him at this time, at least he would be more courageous.

After walking a certain distance, Cao Shujie knelt down and looked carefully at the kiwifruit saplings. The leaves were washed clean by the rain, and the roots in the ground were also full of water. The whole fruit tree looked more vigorous.

"It's okay." Cao Shujie heaved a sigh of relief.

He continued to look inside for more fruit trees, and found that nothing was wrong. He thought to himself: "The nutrient solution is still in charge."

Seeing a light flickering in the distance, knowing that his father was there, Cao Shujie didn't look at the rest, and turned around and walked towards his father.

Walking around, he shouted: "Dad, it's not a big problem, let's go back."

"Really, Shujie, your fruit saplings are growing very well." After Cao Jianguo let go of his worries, he was also curious.

Pointing to a kiwi fruit tree, he said, "I just dug down and took a look at the roots. The roots are very deep."

"Dad, I bought a big 80cm plant, and I watered it every few days. If it grows too poorly, I will ask Ji Guangyou to settle the score." Cao Shujie said.

When Cao Jianguo heard what his son said, he scolded him: "Don't talk nonsense, the quality of the fruit saplings from Uncle Ji's side is still good."

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Cao Shujie felt that his body was getting colder, and he said again: "Dad, it's okay here, let's hurry up and go."

"Well, let's go!" Cao Jianguo said.

The two of them left the orchard and walked down the mountain together.

It is easy when you go up, but it will be difficult when you go down.

This small dirt road is fine on weekdays, but after being soaked in rain today, it has become extremely muddy, especially when going down the mountain, I feel like I will slip after two steps.

Cao Shujie was walking cautiously when his father slipped on his foot, instantly lost his balance and fell to the ground.

The umbrella and flashlight in his hand rolled down the mountain. At first, he could still see the light of the flashlight, but after a while, he couldn't even see the light.

Seeing his father's abnormality, Cao Shujie didn't care whether he would fall or not. He grabbed his father's clothes with his hands and feet to prevent him from rolling over again: "Dad, are you okay!"

"Hiss!" Cao Jianguo took his son's hand and tried to stand up. He just wanted to say it was okay, but when he stepped on the ground with his right foot, he felt a sharp pain!
