The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

"Uncle, I heard that there will be a market in our village. Is it true? When will it start? Can we catch it?" Brothers Cao Yichuan and Cao Yixin ran over to ask Cao Shujie early in the morning.

By the way, invite Cao Shujie to have dinner at their grandfather's house tonight.

After hearing about the big fair that was going to be held in Caojiazhuang, they admired their uncle very much and wondered in their hearts if there was anything that their uncle couldn't do.

But Cao Shujie was very humble and told them that it was not he who brought up this matter.

"Uncle, even if you didn't propose it, you agreed to it."

Cao Yixin flattered him: "If you don't agree, this matter won't be done. Am I right?"

Cao Shujie looked at his nephew and said to him, "You have a good mouth. With your mouth skills, you will never go hungry in the future."

"Hehe!" Cao Yixin smiled a little proudly.

It was only mid-morning, and it was still early for dinner. Cao Shujie asked them if they had anything else to do. When he heard the brothers say they had nothing to do, Cao Shujie thought for a moment and suggested, "If you have nothing to do, then I'll take you to the river to fish?"

"Okay, uncle, let's go." Cao Yichuan became excited.

The two brothers were excited to help their uncle and prepared to set off.

Cao Shujie called them again: "Wait a moment, I'll find some fishing gear."

He bought a set of professional fishing gear, but hasn't used it for a long time.

Today, when he saw his two nephews coming to see him, he had nothing to do, so he thought about taking them to the river for a stroll to kill time.

Mengmeng was doing her homework in the room. When she heard what her father and two cousins ​​said, she stopped doing her homework and ran out excitedly, saying that she wanted to go fishing with them.

Mengmeng still remembers going fishing with her father when she was a child.

She still remembered that her father would always tie a rope around her and tie the other end around his waist.

At that time, Mengmeng thought her father was annoying because he always didn't let her play.

Ok?
She is cute and doesn’t bear grudges!

"Wait a minute, let me find where I put the fishing rod." Cao Shujie rummaged through the room where miscellaneous items were kept and finally found a rectangular box in the corner.

The surface looked silver-gray. The box was about the same size as a 20-inch suitcase and looked square. There was a thin layer of dust on it. Cao Shujie wiped it twice with a wet wipe before going outside with the fishing gear that looked as clean as new.

Cao Yichuan, Cao Yixin and Mengmeng had been waiting anxiously for a long time. When they saw their uncle (daddy) coming out with fishing gear, they couldn't wait to run over to get the things for their uncle (daddy) so that they could leave quickly.

Cao Shujie put the fishing gear in the bed of the electric car, and then went to get two buckets to hold the fish.

Cheng Xiaolin saw her husband holding two buckets and asked him where he was going.

When Cheng Xiaolin heard her husband say that he was going to take the children fishing, she immediately looked at him with disdain: "Shujie, can you do it? One bucket is enough, right? Don't come back with two empty buckets, it will be so embarrassing!"

"You deserve a beating again, don't you?" Cao Shujie came up to his wife and unexpectedly slapped her on the butt, which was fleshy and elastic.

He wanted to have a duel with his wife in advance.

Cheng Xiaolin glared at him angrily, then walked backwards into the house.

However, when she saw the three children sitting in the bed of the electric bike and her husband riding the electric bike to go to the river, Cheng Xiaolin loudly reminded her husband to keep an eye on them and pay attention to safety.

The riverside is not a place to play around. If you accidentally fall into the river, it will be a big mess.

Cao Shujie agreed readily, but before he even walked out the door, his son Cao Yirui started crying loudly in the house again. He even rolled back and forth on the ground, with snot and tears mixed together on his little face, which was a headache.

He cried and said that his father didn't want him anymore.

Cao Shujie felt a headache after listening to this. He stopped the electric bike, carried his son into the bed of the bike, and asked his two nephews to help him look after Yirui.

"Uncle, don't worry." Cao Yichuan agreed readily.

Cao Shujie got on his electric bike again and drove the four of them towards the river. On the way there, he told them that they must be obedient when they got there and must not go to the river to play in the water.

The water of the Yellow River is turbulent and muddy, and it is not easy to see the situation below. If you really slip into it, the situation will be very dangerous.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely not go to the river." Cao Yichuan said confidently.

He then added: "I would also watch my younger brother and sister and not let them go to the river."

Cao Yixin also stated that he would not go to play in the water nearby.

But Cao Shujie still felt uneasy. Before he even reached the river, he called his eldest and second brothers, told them that he was going to fish in the Yellow River, and asked them if they would come.

When brothers Cao Shubin and Cao Shuxin were young, they often went to the Yellow River and the small rivers around Caojiazhuang to catch fish and take them home for snacks.

For them, catching fish and shrimps is a very common thing and they don’t find it new.

But their son had never tried it before. Now when they heard their cousin say that their son went to the river to fish, they also got excited and rode their electric bikes towards the Yellow River.

Brothers Cao Shubin and Cao Shuxin came to the Yellow River and called their cousin again. After learning where their cousin was, they found him in a few minutes.

At this time, Cao Shujie was sitting on a rocky beach, and the fishing hook had already been thrown into the water.

Cao Yichuan, Cao Yixin, Mengmeng and Cao Yirui were watching from the side.

Cao Yirui was the most worrying one, always wanting to go closer to the river to take a look.

Fortunately, Cao Yichuan kept holding on to his clothes and didn't dare let go. If Cao Yiru made a fuss, Cao Shujie would also scold him.

Mengmeng is different from her father, she doesn't say any unnecessary nonsense, and when she sees her brother disobeying, Mengmeng raises her hand and slaps her brother on the buttocks without holding back at all, with a light "pop" sound, her brother screams.

But this slap was really effective. Cao Yirui immediately became obedient, sitting next to his sister, not daring to say a word.

"Shujie, do you have many fishing rods? I can't even find a bamboo pole at home." asked the eldest brother Cao Shubin.

Cao Shujie pointed to the fishing box next to him and said, "Brother, just take it yourself."

"I just wanted to let Yichuan and Yixin go fishing, but I didn't know neither of them knew how to do it." Cao Shujie felt very disappointed.

When the brothers Cao Yichuan and Cao Yixin heard what their uncle said, they felt ashamed and embarrassed.

Cao Shuxin also said to them: "Don't just study all day, or you will become a blockhead. You should follow my instructions carefully."

The two brothers felt even more ashamed.

Cao Shubin told them: "Fishing in the Yellow River is different from fishing in other small rivers. You don't need a float or anything like that. You have to use a sinker, otherwise the hook won't go down."

Cao Shubin seemed very familiar with the situation and had rich experience in fishing in the Yellow River. It didn't take long for him to get everything ready and throw the hook into the river with a flick of his wrist.

Cao Shuxin hasn't finished yet, but who knows if there will be any movement from Cao Shujie's side.

"Ouch, it's quite strong, it might be a big one." Cao Shujie shouted.

But the water was too muddy to see clearly.

In addition, the fish itself has much greater power in the water, so Cao Shujie was not in a hurry and slowly reeled in the fish.

After a while, the fish seemed to be tired, so Cao Shujie took this opportunity to quickly spin the wheel to retrieve the line. Cao Yichuan, Cao Yixin and others saw that their uncle had made a catch, and their eyes were fixed on his side, wondering what kind of fish his uncle could catch.

But I didn't expect that this time I caught a catfish, and it was quite a big one.

Judging from the size of the fish, it must be around three pounds. Cao Shujie lifted the fishing rod. When the fish left the water, it was still swinging its body vigorously in the air, pressing Cao Shujie's fishing rod down with it. He held the fishing rod tightly and continued to retrieve it.

"Wow, this fish is really big." Cao Shubin also said.

Cao Shuxin finally finished arranging the fishing rod and fishing line. After hanging the bait, he threw the hook into the water. He was not in a hurry and waited patiently.

Cao Yirui was still being held by his cousin Cao Yichuan by his clothes, but when he saw his father catching a fish, the little guy twisted his body hard and asked his cousin to let him go as he wanted to go over and take a look at the fish.

"Ruirui, be quiet. What if you fall down?" his sister Mengmeng said.

The little guy turned his head and met his sister's fierce eyes, and immediately became obedient.

She bit her lip and dared not say more.

When Cao Shubin saw his little nephew being eaten alive by his niece, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

This kid is as scared of his sister as a mouse is of a cat. No wonder his cousin said during the barbecue that night that his nephew became so delicate because he was scared by his sister.

Now that Cao Shubin has seen it, he feels that this might really be the case.

If it weren't for the consideration of giving his nephew some face, Cao Shubin would have laughed.

Cao Shuxin saw his cousin put the catfish into the bucket, and then heard the "pat pat pat" sound of the fish swinging its body against the bucket wall. He also wanted to catch a big fish.

But his son Cao Yixin was not giving him face and was already yelling at his uncle to hurry up and put on the bait to catch another big one.

"Uncle, shall we eat the fish you caught tonight?" Cao Yixin went to discuss with his uncle.

Cao Shuxin also secretly vowed to catch a big fish today. His son was too unreasonable.

But the more anxious he became, the less fish he caught. He kept staring into the water, but there was no movement.

Instead, not long after his cousin threw the fishing hook in, he caught another fish weighing more than one pound.

Seeing this scene, Cao Shuxin became anxious.

But he didn't expect that his elder brother Cao Shubin also caught a fish. Although it was not big, it was better than him catching nothing.

When Cao Yichuan saw that his father had also caught a fish, the smile on his face seemed to be contagious.

Cao Yixin also shouted "Come on!"
Only Cao Yirui still goes his own way and wants to see the big fish in the barrel.

Meng Meng couldn't stand it anymore and slapped his brother again: "Rui Rui, you shout for encouragement too!"

"Uh!" Cao Yirui had a helpless expression on his little face.

He felt that he was so unlucky to have such a sister.

……

At this time at Cao Shujie's home, Cao Huifang was asking her sister-in-law for some tips on making short videos.

In particular, I asked my sister-in-law how to make the video more marketable, more anticipated, and more attractive to traffic.

These are the core points, but Cheng Xiaolin did not hide them. She explained them very clearly to her sister-in-law.

Before I could finish my story, my eldest and second sister-in-law came over together.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw them, one was talking from a video and the other was following and learning.

Zhang Yi and Ren Jingjing also became interested. They had come here today to ask their sister-in-law about the video. What a coincidence.

Cheng Xiaolin didn't mind teaching two more people.

She made some room and asked her two sisters-in-law about their knowledge of short videos, but the results were not ideal as they had no basic knowledge at all.

It can be said that there is no problem in letting them watch short videos, but asking them to make short videos is embarrassing.

Cheng Xiaolin thought about it and did not change the pace of the tutorial, but taught her sister-in-law first.

Then I put the basic tutorial in the mailboxes of my two sisters-in-law, so that they can start from the basics and learn this skill in an easy-to-understand way.

For someone who has never been exposed to this aspect, teaching them the technical issues of short video editing and video production is too difficult for the two of them.

At the beginning, Zhang Yi and Ren Jingjing, the two sisters-in-law, were very enthusiastic in learning, but later they found that they lacked a lot. Now asking Cheng Xiaolin to teach them would be a waste of Cheng Xiaolin's time.

"Linlin, you should also go to the south for dinner tonight," said sister-in-law Zhang Yi.

Cheng Xiaolin didn't know about this yet. Only after listening to her eldest and second sister-in-law, did she understand.

When my eldest and second brothers came back this time, they had two meals at my cousin's house on the first day. They had been busy visiting relatives in the previous two days. Now that they have some free time, they naturally want to treat their cousin back.

"Sister-in-law, is there anything you need?" Cheng Xiaolin asked.

But Zhang Yi and the others both said that everything was ready and nothing was missing.

"Okay, then we'll take grandpa there in the evening." Cheng Xiaolin agreed.

"They all went fishing, right?" Ren Jingjing asked.

Seeing her brother and sister-in-law nodding, Ren Jingjing said, "I really admire them. People of such age are still so enthusiastic about fishing."

"Haha." Cheng Xiaolin laughed.

The three were still discussing whether they had any success on this fishing trip.

When Cao Shujie and his two brothers returned from the Yellow River with their four children, Cheng Xiaolin was really surprised and shocked to see the fish in the bucket.

"How did you catch so many fish?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her husband.

She then asked, "Are you going to buy fish?"

"You just bought the fish, why should I care?" Cao Shujie didn't want to pay attention to his wife.

Cao Yirui snorted, "Yes, I fished for it."

Meng Meng was unhappy: "Did you catch it? That was caught by me."

"My father caught it." Cao Yiru said with his neck stiff.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mengmeng continued: "No, that's not the case. My dad caught it."

Cheng Xiaolin was so angry when she saw the two sisters arguing over this that she had a headache. She finally yelled, "Both of you shut up. If anyone keeps talking, I'll beat him up."

As soon as they finished speaking, the brother and sister both fell silent. (End of this chapter)
