At the gate of Yiling University, Cao Shujie helped his sister take out the suitcase, fruits and cooked meat brought from home from the trunk, and asked his sister, "Do you still need me to send it to you again?" ”

"Brother, no, I can handle it, you go back quickly, I can't take it upstairs later, so I'll call Deng Miaoshan and them to come down and help." Cao Huifang said.

It was not yet six o'clock, and the roommates hadn't gotten up yet, and her brother couldn't go upstairs even if he followed in.

Seeing her brother turn around to leave, Cao Huifang instructed him again: "Brother, you go back slowly, if you are sleepy, find a place to rest for a while before leaving." ”

"Okay, just leave me alone, call me again if you have anything, and tell me if you are short of money." Cao Shujie spoke, turned around and opened the car door in a chic manner, sat in the driver's seat, started the car and left.

After Cao Huifang stood there and watched the car go away, she hung everything else on the trunk lever and dragged the suitcase towards her dormitory building.

With less than two years to go before graduation, she originally felt that she had plenty of time, but after experiencing a lot of things, she realized that there was not much time left for her to thicken her foundation, just like her brother said, now going to work in the summer is a bit of putting the cart before the horse, and she still has to study hard.

Carrying the rising sun on her back and looking at the short shadow cast on the ground, Cao Huifang told herself: "Come on, work hard!" ”

……

Cao Shujie drove back along the road, and drove for more than half an hour along the way, when Cao Shujie saw a sign on the side of the road that said 'Yingke Flower', he stepped on the brakes to slow down, parked the car in an unobstructed place on the side of the road, and walked directly towards a greenhouse next to it.

Walking to the front, Cao Shujie was about to knock on the door, when suddenly there was a dog barking next to him, the sound was very ferocious, and it really made people feel furious if they didn't pay attention to it.

Cao Shujie followed the sound and looked over, a light yellow-haired earth dog was being tethered to a tree not far away, barking at him.

"Shut up, I'll kill you again." Cao Shujie scolded it.

Maybe he is often with the four dogs raised at home, after training them for a long time, he himself is not so afraid of dogs, overwhelming each other in momentum, and then glaring, the light yellow fur earth dog on the opposite side immediately shut up and did not bark, turned around the place a few times and lay on the ground, from time to time to look up at Cao Shujie, and found that he had been staring at himself, and bent down to pick up something, the earth dog turned his head directly, twisted his head to the back, and his butt was facing Cao Shujie, out of sight.

"Damn, so smart!" Cao Shujie was also surprised, are all the dogs now spermful?

At this time, a voice came from the greenhouse: "Don't scream rhubarb." ”

"Who's out there, what's the matter?"

"Boss, I bought the flowers." Cao Shujie responded.

"Wait a minute, I'll be right away."

Not long after, a middle-aged woman wearing a painted plaid coarse cloth apron with sweat on her forehead came out of the shed.

After she saw Cao Shujie, she asked with a smile, "Little brother, did you want to buy flowers just now?" ”

"Yes, eldest sister, what flowers do you have here?" Cao Shujie asked her.

The middle-aged woman didn't ask Cao Shujie's name, but took him directly into the greenhouse, and said, "I have a lot of varieties here, all kinds of flowers, you can take a look for yourself." ”

After entering, Cao Shujie suddenly felt that the temperature in the greenhouse was much higher than outside.

If the normal temperature outside is 145 degrees, the inside of the greenhouse is at least 10 degrees higher, and the humidity is very heavy, coupled with the high temperature, it makes people feel like a sauna.

Cao Shujie stood there without moving, and felt a feeling of sweating in his body.

However, the flowers of different colors in the greenhouse or the different green plants suitable for placing in the indoor environment instantly attracted Cao Shujie's attention.

"Eldest sister, you're so beautiful here." Cao Shujie sighed from the bottom of his heart.

The middle-aged woman smiled: "I still have a variety of flowers here, mainly depending on what you want to plant." ”

That's a big breath.

Cao Shujie asked her with a smile: "Eldest sister, what is your surname?" ”

Who knows that this middle-aged woman doesn't play cards according to the routine, she said: "Hey, I'm just a working life, how can there be anything expensive or not, my surname is Song, older than you, you just call me Sister Song." ”

A very refreshing person.

Cao Shujie was not hypocritical, and shouted with a smile: "Sister Song, my surname is Cao, Cao Cao's Cao." ”

After the introduction, he continued: "That's the case, I have contracted a mountain area to plant fruit trees on our side, and I am engaged in picking, but there are very few things that can be seen on the mountain I contracted, and the whole is too monotonous. ”

After listening to Cao Shujie, Song Shuli suddenly felt interesting, she looked at Cao Shujie carefully, a very young man, a face similar to the shape of a Chinese character, the bridge of his nose is very high, and if you look closely, you will find that there is a small black spot on his chin, I can't tell if it is a mole or something else.

His lips are broad, his eyebrows are thick, and he is very well-looking.

"Brother Cao, where did you contract the mountainous land?" Song Shuli asked.

This is an important matter.

The temperature difference between different parts of the country is very large, and some flowers are only suitable for planting in special temperature ranges, and they may not survive if they are too cold or too hot.

Song Shuli listened to Cao Shujie speak with a little foreign accent, and she was a little unsure where he was.

"Sister Song, I am from our Yiling City, and I am in the mountainous area contracted by Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County, do you know over there?" Cao Shujie tried to be as detailed as possible.

Hearing him talk about this place, Song Shuli looked familiar: "It turns out that you are from Qingshi Town, Pingyuan County, and my object's house is also nearby, and it is not the same town as you." After Song Shuli finished speaking, she knew in her heart, she said: "If this is the case, I suggest that you plant tree lavender, hydrangea, peony, clematis, yueji, and Lingxiao flower, these varieties are fine, it doesn't matter in summer, it is cold in winter." ”

"Other flowers, if you plant them in an indoor environment, or a place where the temperature difference is not large, it's okay, but if we plant them outdoors, it's useless." Song Shuli is very realistic.

She didn't get caught up with Cao Shujie because he didn't understand this knowledge, but told him about it in a real way.

After listening to this, Cao Shujie asked, "Do you have all the things that Sister Song just said?" ”

"You want them all?" Song Shuli asked him.

Seeing Cao Shujie nodding, Song Shuli was a little embarrassed, she said: "I only have Yueji, peony and tree-like lavender, and I have to transfer the rest." ”

As she spoke, she took Cao Shujie along the path in the greenhouse, came to a separately divided area, pointed to the pink blooming Yueji inside, and said: "Brother Cao, this is the Yueji flower, you know this." ”

Cao Shujie looked at the flower plant that was almost 1 meter tall, and there were dozens of blooming flowers hanging on it, and he nodded: "I know." ”

"This variety is very good, it is easy to serve, it has beautiful flowering, and it has a long flowering period."

"In addition, the longer you plant, the higher the flowers will grow, and the more flowers will bloom."

Cao Shujie nodded and asked, "Sister Song, is there anything else?" ”

"Yes, you come with me." Song Shuli continued to take Cao Shujie inside, and saw peonies and tree-like lavender halfway.

But it's a pity that now is not the time for peonies and tree-like lavender to bloom, and Cao Shujie hasn't been able to see them in full bloom.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Can Sister Song help me get the other three flowers?" Get a little more. ”

"How much do you need?" Song Shuli asked him.

If you don't understand this data, the rest is not easy to match.

Cao Shujie told her: "I have contracted a total of 85 acres of mountainous land, and the surrounding areas of the mountains I contracted are basically bare, with only a small number of wildflowers, which is not very beautiful and not coordinated enough." ”

Song Shuli understood this time, and she asked in surprise: "Brother Cao means that you want to plant flowers all around?" ”

"Can you think about this? If you have all the seeds, the cost is not low. Song Shuli deliberately emphasized this point to him.

She also said: "I thought you weren't very big over there, and it would be nothing to plant a few plants to watch and, but if you plant a lot, this thing won't produce intuitive benefits." ”

After Cao Shujie heard what Song Shuli said, he nodded lightly: "Sister Song, what you just said, if I want more, you can see how much discount you can get, if there are many discounts, I won't go to other people to see it." ”

He didn't pretend to be forced to say, 'Money is not a problem'.

"You want the six kinds of flowers I just mentioned?" Song Shuli asked him.

Cao Shujie nodded: "If you can get it, you can come to some, and it will be too monotonous to match the species." ”

"Then I suggest that you don't just plant flowers, but also plant some holly, dragon claw locust, evergreen and the like, it looks better with it." Song Shuli emphasized: "It also saves winter, other flowers have lost their leaves, and you can still see a little green, right?" ”

is such a reason, Cao Shujie did not object.

He said, "Everything." ”

"You need someone to plant flowers over there, right?" Song Shuli asked him.

Seeing Cao Shujie nodding, she said: "In this case, let's leave a phone number first, and after I find someone else to ask clearly, I will call you and make an offer, Brother Cao, you will take a look at it then, if it is appropriate, let's talk about the rest, how about it?" ”

Cao Shujie nodded and agreed, it was very reliable to do so.

Song Shuli dialed his phone according to what Cao Shujie said, and the two left each other's names, and said: "When the results come out, I will call you as soon as possible." ”

"Sister Song, how many days will there be results?" Cao Shujie habitually asked.

"Tomorrow at the latest." Song Shuli said.

After Cao Shujie left from Song Shuli's side, he drove towards Caojiazhuang.

On the way to send his sister here, he saw this 'Keying Flower', thinking that his mountain is too monotonous now, and he originally planned to have a variety of different varieties of flowers to make it look more beautiful.

"By the way, I don't know if the lawn mower that Boss Zhao helped me contact has any results?" Cao Shujie remembered one more thing.

When he drove through Qingshi Town, he didn't call, and went directly to Zhao Wenyang's boss's shop.

When I passed, I saw that the store was already open, and Boss Zhao was walking around the store.

Stopping the car, Cao Shujie pushed the car door and walked towards the store: "Boss Zhao, you're busy." ”

His tone is very much like an old friend meeting and greeting.

Zhao Wenyang saw that it was him, and said, "Boss Cao, why are you here, I was still thinking of calling you to say something!" ”

"I happened to go to the city for some personal matters, and when I passed by here, I came over and asked you, did the lawn mower have a whereabouts?" Cao Shujie asked him.

"Yes, I was about to call you!" Zhao Wenyang said.

Regarding what Zhao Wenyang said, Cao Shujie believed him for three points at most.

But then I saw Zhao Wenyang turn on the computer, find a folder, and after opening it, he called Cao Shujie over: "Boss Cao, can you take a look at this." ”

"This is a lawn mower?" Cao Shujie saw that the photo was a tracked mechanical vehicle like a small bulldozer.

He felt that this thing was much more pleasing to the eye than the hand-held ones that Zhao Wenyang had shown him before.

"Yes, this is a lawn mower, the price is much more expensive than the hand-held one, no one buys this kind of one here, and I haven't bought it, but if Boss Cao wants it, I'll contact you." Zhao Wenyang said.

"This one is 20,000 yuan smaller, if Boss Cao is sure that he wants it, I will try to push down the price as much as possible."

"Okay, get two." Cao Shujie nodded, this price is not expensive.

The two communicated verbally, Zhao Wenyang began to call in front of Cao Shujie to contact Shangjia, and finally after some pulling and bargaining, the two crawler lawn mowers included freight, a total of 30,800 yuan.

"Boss Cao, let's take a look at the deposit and leave a little deposit, and I'll contact you when these two lawnmowers are delivered." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Shujie knew that this was a normal process, and he was quite straightforward, and directly left two thousand yuan for Zhao Wenyang, and the two sides initialed an agreement.

And specifically stated in the agreement that if Cao Shujie repented halfway and didn't want these two devices, the deposit of 2,000 yuan would not be refunded.

After all, Zhao Wenyang also took risks.

After Cao Shujie had breakfast in the town, he returned to Caojiazhuang.

Stopping the car, when Cao Shujie walked towards home, he happened to see his wife hand-washing Mengmeng's clothes in the yard, and Mengmeng was playing with the two German herdsmen next to him.

The little wild cat Flowey was still standing on the roof, glancing down from time to time, and the cat was bowing up, looking like it was attacking at any time.

Seeing Cao Shujie coming in, Mengmeng immediately threw off Demu and ran towards him: "Dad, is there anything delicious?" ”

Cao Shujie looked confused, he looked at his wife, and didn't understand what was going on.

Cheng Xiaolin said: "You left just now, Mengmeng has to look for you, I told her, you go buy her something delicious." ”

"Then if you don't give me a call and say something, it's okay, let me be prepared." Cao Shujie nagged his wife.

Then he picked up Mengmeng, pinched her armpits with both hands, and spun around in the air, listening to Mengmeng's 'giggle' laughter, he said quickly: "Mengmeng is so smart, how did you guess that Dad bought you something good?" ”

"Really? Where, let me be well. There was more smile on the cute little face.

She couldn't wait to take a look.

Cao Shujie carried her into the house: "Dad can't let others see it, if you rob you again, you will already hide in the house." ”

"I don't believe it! Daddy lied to me! Mengmeng looked at Cao Shujie with disgust.

With such a childish method, she is cute and not deceived.

But Cao Shujie said: "Really, if you don't believe it, I'll take you to find it." ”

Children are children, playing tricks and tricks, and adults are several grades behind.

When Cao Shujie handed Meng Meng two meat floss and an individually wrapped egg roll, she forgot about anything else, stared at the meat floss and the egg roll, and asked her father to open it for her quickly.

"Daddy, open it for me, I want to eat." Meng Meng said.

"If you're in a hurry, I'll get it for you." Cao Shujie said.

These were bought last time in the Yiling City Department Store, but unfortunately Mengmeng doesn't remember, she forgot to buy this thing a long time ago, otherwise it would be really difficult to fool the past today.

Cheng Xiaolin, who was washing clothes by hand outside, couldn't help laughing when she heard the voice of the father and daughter.

was washing clothes, and suddenly remembered something: "Shujie, Brother Min came to you just now, saying that he asked you to go back and see the decoration." ”

"Why didn't you go looking?" Cao Shujie wondered.

Cheng Xiaolin said: "I'll wait for you to go together, in case something doesn't work, let's discuss and change." ”

"Okay then, now go?"

"You're blind, you didn't see me doing the laundry, can't you wait until I'm done washing?" Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie snorted and didn't say anything else.

He played with his daughter for 20 minutes, Cheng Xiaolin washed the clothes and dried them, Cao Shujie led the dog, Cheng Xiaolin hugged Mengmeng and walked to the new house.

It has been more than a month since the house was renovated in early August, except for the carpentry work, everything else is basically finished, and Cao Tieming is now taking people to deal with some details.

Seeing Cao Shujie and the two of them coming, Cao Tiemin took the two of them to look at the upper and lower floors together.

I also asked Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin if they had any opinions, and if they had no opinions, they would do carpentry work.

"I think it's okay, it's beautiful, what do you think of my wife?" Cao Shujie asked his wife.

After reading it, Cheng Xiaolin said: "Yes, I don't have any opinions." ”

"That's it, let it dry for a few days, and I'll do the rest." Cao Tiemin said.

"yes, okay!" Cao Shujie nodded in agreement.

Cheng Xiaolin asked, "Brother Min, can you finish it this month?" ”

"Yes, after that, it will be left to dry for another three months, and you can move here before the Spring Festival." Cao Tiemin said.

Hearing him say this, Cheng Xiaolin was very happy, she nodded again and again, and asked, "Shujie, then let's go and choose furniture and household appliances in a few days." ”

"It's okay, anyway, there is nothing else, choose the furniture and appliances in advance, and when the decoration is completed, the furniture and appliances will be moved directly over." Cao Shujie said.

After cleaning up early, he moved in early, saving him from having to turn on the air conditioner for heating in winter, and the wind blowing out was too dry, and he was a little unaccustomed to it.

After deciding on this matter, Cao Tiemin chatted with them, and then went upstairs to work as a supervisor and watched the others work.

He is very concerned about the decoration of this house.
