"Mengmeng, who do you see?" Cheng Xiaolin also saw her mother-in-law.

I just left after the Spring Festival at home last month, and Mengmeng still remembers her grandmother at this time.

She shouted loudly to her grandmother in the car, and it was still a little far away, and Wang Yuelan couldn't hear her voice outside.

When the car stopped, Wang Yuelan hurriedly walked to the back door and took a look inside, and shouted loudly outside: "Linlin, it's cold outside, put on thick clothes for Mengmeng." ”

"Grandma!" Meng Meng also jumped inside and shouted loudly.

When her mother dressed her and opened the car door again, Mengmeng didn't care about anything else, stretched out her hands and threw herself at her grandmother.

Fortunately, Wang Yuelan reacted quickly enough and hugged her in her arms: "Oh, Mengmeng, you are skinny again, if I can't catch you, you will jump into the ditch." ”

Next to Cao Shujie's parking is a sewage drainage ditch made of cement.

"Mom, it's so cold outside, what are you doing standing here?" Cheng Xiaolin said to her mother-in-law.

Wang Yuelan shook her head: "I stewed the ribs and chicken, and I had nothing to do at home, so I came out for a walk." ”

After the words fell, she remembered one thing: "Linlin, didn't you just leave after the New Year last month, it's only been a month, why did you come back again?" ”

Cao Shujie was afraid that his mother would be worried, so he didn't say anything about resigning and returning to his hometown in advance on the phone.

At this time, I got home, but I didn't care: "Mom, I quit my job, and I will develop at home in the future, and I won't go out." ”

"Ahh Wang Yuelan was very surprised, and then she was a little angry: "What are you doing at home?" Planting an orchard? ”

"That's right, it's to plant an orchard, aren't there still a few acres of orchards on our mountain, I'll tinker with those later." Cao Shujie has a plan in his heart.

He was tired of the endless fast-paced life in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and thought that he would slow down the pace of life and live for a few more years, so as not to die suddenly like in his previous life.

"What about your house in the capital? What to do? ”

Cao Shujie opened the trunk and began to take things out, and when he heard his mother ask, he said directly: "It's sold, and if you come back after selling, if you hadn't sold the house and gone through the procedures, you would have come back a long time ago." ”

"What should I do if I go to school in the future, there are no good schools here." Wang Yuelan was also heartbroken.

But Cao Shujie didn't care at all, he said: "Mom, Mengmeng hasn't even started kindergarten yet, do you want to go so far, let's talk about it in a few years." ”

Cheng Xiaolin glared at her husband and said to him: "Nonsense." ”

Then he held her mother-in-law's hand and said confidently: "Mom, I can teach the courses before junior high school, and there is no big problem." ”

Wang Yuelan pointed to her son and daughter-in-law, she didn't know what to say, she simply didn't mention it: "Forget it, you can do whatever you like, I don't care." ”

Ke Mengmeng said: "Grandma, hungry." ”

When Wang Yuelan heard her granddaughter say this, she immediately diverted her attention and went home with her granddaughter in her arms first: "Mengmeng, grandma specially stewed a piece of fat meat for you, it's fragrant." ”

"Hee-hee, meat, meat." Meng Meng hugged her grandmother's neck with both hands and smiled vigorously.

It was completely dark, and his father, Cao Jianguo, came back from the town on a motorcycle, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Shujie, why are you back again?" ”

"Why did he come back again, he plans to grow fruit at home, and he won't leave in the future." Wang Yuelan said angrily.

I talked to my son and daughter-in-law just now, and my daughter-in-law's words were: "Mom, Shujie's class is too tired, he stays up late every day, and the mortgage in the capital alone is six or seven thousand, and he can't save some money, so it's better to come back and develop." ”

After Cao Jianguo listened, he had something in his heart, but he didn't know what to say.

In the end, he said helplessly: "Come back, come back, let him take care of the orchard for a few days until he is tired, and then they will go back without urging." ”

"Grandpa, where's the puppy?" Mengmeng watched the adults talk, no one paid attention to her, she looked around and didn't see the puppy, and she was anxious.

Cao Jianguo heard his granddaughter's shout, slapped his thigh, and looked resentful: "Mengmeng, our dog let the dog steal the dog die, grandpa will find you a better one another day, okay?" ”

As soon as I heard that the puppy was gone, I grinned and cried with a cute 'wow', and no one could persuade me.

It was Cao Shujie who hugged her and said, "Mengmeng, go, Dad will take you to the street to see the dog." ”

In the countryside, there is no shortage of all kinds of dogs.

This trick is so good that the little guy doesn't cry when she hears it, she can't wait any longer, and she is about to go out by holding her father's hand.

In the end, Cao Shujie put on a thick coat for her, carried her out and saw a local dog on the street, so the little guy stopped crying.

……

The first day of the family of three returning to the countryside from the capital passed like this.

Early the next morning, as soon as Cao Shujie got up, he saw his father sweeping the fallen leaves in the yard with a bamboo broom.

Seeing Cao Shujie coming, Cao Jianguo shouted, "Shujie, come here." ”

Cao Shujie went over and was curious: "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

"You really don't want to go out, how nice it is outside, there is nothing at home......" Cao Jianguo tried to persuade his son not to stay at home.

But Cao Shujie made up his mind: "Dad, I'm not going out, where to live a different life, I can accompany you more at home, how good." ”

"But the family doesn't make money, it's all expenses all year round, you can't eat your old book every day." Cao Jianguo was a little angry at his son's incompetence.

He said: "Everyone else is running out, the more mixed the better, you are good, the more mixed up the more you come back, where do you say let my old face go!" ”

Hearing his father say this, Cao Shujie smiled: "Dad, why am I embarrassed you, look at it, at most next year, you must be the most beautiful in Caojiazhuang." ”

"Forget it, it's up to you." Cao Jianguo couldn't convince his son, so he didn't want to deal with him.

One more thing was mentioned: "I have discussed with your mother, if you really don't leave, then we will leave this house for you to live in, and your mother and I will go to live in the house at the foot of the mountain." ”

"Dad, it's the opposite." Cao Shujie hurriedly shook his head, he had planned to renovate the house at the foot of their mountain.

He said: "Dad, give me the house at the foot of the mountain, I will find someone to rebuild it in a few days, and when the time comes, it will be beautiful, decorate, and live comfortably." ”

Seeing that his son didn't look like he was joking, Cao Jianguo didn't say anything else, and finally admonished: "Don't spend money indiscriminately, buy this and that, how much money has been spent." ”

"Dad, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore." Cao Shujie came to his father's side and said with a smile: "Dad, how can I watch you get younger and younger, and you look quite handsome." ”

"Get out of the way." Cao Jianguo raised his hand and slapped his son, a little unbearable for his son to praise him for being handsome.

But he didn't know that this was what Cao Shujie said.

12 years later, Cao Jianguo's skin was tanned by the sun, not to mention, and the whole person looked old and unpresentable, not at all like what he should have at that age.

After the two finished speaking, when Cao Shujie returned to the bedroom, his wife had just woken up and was getting dressed.

"Close the door, it's cold." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie hurriedly closed the door, and he said: "Daughter-in-law, I just told our dad that the house at the foot of the mountain was picked up and rebuilt, made bigger, better, and comfortable." ”
