The leisurely life of the reborn daddy

But it was useless. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't go back to the past. However, when she saw the video sent by her mother Cheng Xiaolin, Cao Xuemeng suddenly wanted to go home.

But now she has a lot of work to do and can't go back for the time being.

After starting her own business, Cao Xuemeng realized that some things were not as free as when she was in school or working.

For example, when she just graduated from school and found her first job, she had the leisure to go against her manager. But now Cao Xuemeng is so busy every day that she doesn’t have much time to think about anything else.

She felt like she was being assimilated.

At this moment, Cao Xuemeng suddenly recalled that when she was a child, her father Cao Shujie would always go home no matter how busy he was, even if he was drunk.

She didn’t understand before. She thought her father just liked to drink and wouldn’t listen to anything the family said.

She also secretly complained many times.

But it was not until she started her own business that Cao Xuemeng realized that her father drank at that time just to get a few more orders or to establish a relationship.

Fortunately, because of the empire her father built, although it is difficult for Cao Xuemeng to attract business now, it is not to the point where she has to drink alcohol to attract business.

Another busy day passed. After finishing her work, Cao Xuemeng returned to her residence with Wu Shangying.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she came back, she saw Lei Xinyi waiting for her at the door of the apartment building.

"Sister Mengmeng, you're back." Lei Xinyi quickly stood up.

Cao Xuemeng wondered: "Xinyi, why didn't you call me? If I had known you were here, I would have come back earlier."

"Hi, I don't have anything else to do. I've been very busy at school recently. I've also been researching a new topic with my teacher, so I haven't been here much." Lei Xinyi explained why she had come less frequently during this period.

Cao Xuemeng didn't care and took Lei Xinyi upstairs. In the evening, Cao Xuemeng personally cooked a sumptuous dinner.

While eating, he called Wu Shangying and Guan Shuangxia to eat together.

Lei Xinyi was no longer surprised by the good relationship between Sister Mengmeng and her two bodyguards.

In fact, she was also very envious and was wondering when she could be like this.

However, Lei Xinyi also knew that she could only think about it and it was impossible to realize this idea.

"Sister Mengmeng, you didn't go home after you got here, did you?"

After dinner, the two of them sat cross-legged on the sofa watching TV, and Lei Xinyi asked.

Cao Xuemeng glanced at her and then asked her, "Are you talking about going back to Caojiazhuang?"

Lei Xinyi nodded heavily: "Of course, where else can we go back to?"

"I'm not going back for the time being. The studio has a lot of business right now, so I have to stay here." Cao Xuemeng said.

Lei Xinyi was a little disappointed when she heard Sister Mengmeng say that. Then she said to Cao Xuemeng, "I heard from my father that all the fruit trees in your orchard are in bloom. I want to go over and take a look."

"Just go, take a bus or drive there. I'll call my parents and you can stay at their house then." Cao Xuemeng said straightforwardly.

But Lei Xinyi felt that if Sister Mengmeng didn't go back, it would be a bit uncomfortable for her to go alone.

She always felt that there was something wrong with the way Aunt Xiaolin looked at her, which made her feel uncomfortable.

"Let me take a look. I'll finish the work at hand first. If I have time, I'll take you back." This is what Cao Xuemeng said.

"Sister Mengmeng, you don't love me anymore." Lei Xinyi suddenly said.

Cao Xuemeng's expression didn't change. She turned her head to look at her, then turned her attention back to the TV program.

It is said that Starlink has made another major breakthrough...

Cao Xuemeng watched for a while and then changed the channel. She felt that this kind of news was irrelevant and not down-to-earth at all.

Then they changed to a variety show channel, and the two of them watched and chatted to pass the time.

That night, Lei Xinyi stayed at Cao Xuemeng's place again.

……

Ever since Lei Xinyi told Cao Xuemeng that she wanted to visit Caojiazhuang, Cao Xuemeng has always kept it in mind.

In fact, she also wanted to go back and take a look.

In mid-April, after the work in the design studio came to a temporary halt, Cao Xuemeng called Lei Xinyi and told her about returning to Caojiazhuang.

Lei Xinyi happily agreed when she heard it.

At the same time, they told her parents and asked for leave from their school tutor, and the two sisters left as soon as they said they would.

It took more than six hours to drive from Beijing back to Caojiazhuang on the highway.

While waiting for the car to get off the highway and arrive at Qingshi Town, Lei Xinyi looked at the changes in the town and couldn't find the familiar appearance at all.

When she was young, Lei Xinyi often came to Caojiazhuang with her parents, but she could not remember too many things at that time. Later, her parents came to Caojiazhuang less frequently, and Lei Xinyi never came here alone again, and she seemed even more unfamiliar with this place.

If Lei Xinyi hadn’t seen her father watching the video sent by Uncle Shujie some time ago, she wouldn’t have known that the fruit trees were blooming again.

"Sister Mengmeng, are we almost there?" Lei Xinyi asked impatiently.

Cao Xuemeng nodded: "We'll be there in a few minutes."

"Then hurry up, I want to go and take a look." Lei Xinyi said.

Coming here, Cao Xuemeng was not in a hurry anymore.

It was already past 3 p.m. when we returned to Caojiazhuang. There were far fewer people coming to Caojiazhuang to play at this time than in the morning.

Cao Xuemeng and his companions did not encounter any traffic jams along the way. When the car passed the entrance of Caojiazhuang Children's Theme Park, Lei Xinyi and Cao Xuemeng looked at the scenery outside the car window together, and Lei Xinyi became excited.

Especially when she saw the roller coaster running at high speed in the children's theme park, she wanted to go down and play for a while.

"Sister Mengmeng, let's go ride the roller coaster." Lei Xinyi said.

Cao Xuemeng asked her, "Aren't you thinking of going to the mountains to see the fruit tree flowers?"

"Since we can't escape from the mountain, I think we should go ride the roller coaster first." Lei Xinyi said.

She is also an adventurous person and can't walk when she sees a roller coaster.

Cao Xuemeng followed her and said to Wu Shangying who was driving, "Aunt Wu, please find a place to park the car in front. Let's go to the park and play for a while."

"Okay," Wu Shangying nodded and agreed.

Not long after, Wu Shangying parked the car in the parking lot in front.

Cao Xuemeng and Lei Xinyi got out of the car, and Guan Shuangxia followed the two sisters back to the park.

Just as they reached the door and were about to enter the park, they heard someone shouting, "Meng Meng, Meng Meng, it's you."

Cao Xuemeng subconsciously stopped and turned her head to look in the direction of the voice, only then she noticed her grandma and grandpa setting up a stall next to the park entrance.

Seeing the two old people, Cao Xuemeng quickly ran over to greet them.

Lei Xinyi also ran after Cao Xuemeng and called out "Grandma" and "Grandpa".

"Are you back from Beijing? Where is your brother?" Li Xiaojuan asked.

Cao Xuemeng went over and hugged Li Xiaojuan's arm, smiling affectionately and said, "Grandma, my brother ran out to play by himself, don't mention him."

Now Cao Xuemeng felt angry when she thought of her brother running out to play alone.

Li Xiaojuan really didn't know about this, but seeing her granddaughter's angry face, she didn't ask any more questions, thinking that she would ask what was going on later.

Cheng Rengui also asked why his granddaughter came back at this time?

"Grandpa, we're not busy, so we came back to play for two days." Cao Xuemeng didn't make excuses and just said whatever he wanted to say.

Cheng Rengui and Li Xiaojuan could see that the girl who came back with their granddaughter was eager to go to the park, so they said to them, "You go in and play first, I'll go home in the evening."

"Hey, Grandpa, see you tonight." Cao Xuemeng took Lei Xinyi to the park. Cheng Rengui and Li Xiaojuan were still discussing their granddaughter's return at this time.

Li Xiaojuan also did not forget to call her daughter Cheng Xiaolin to tell her about it.

Cheng Xiaolin didn't know that their eldest daughter Cao Xuemeng had returned. After hearing her mother talk about it, Cheng Xiaolin realized it belatedly and said to her mother, "Mom, I'll call her later. You and my dad can come over for dinner tonight."

"Okay, let's get busy first." Li Xiaojuan said.

Cheng Rengui was already busy greeting the guests.

There are a lot of people coming here to play today, and they have a lot of things to sell.

They can earn a lot of money in a day, and the old couple are getting more and more motivated to work.

Compared with people of the same age, they are several years younger.

……

Sisters Cao Xuemeng and Lei Xinyi ran all the way to the roller coaster in the park and then stopped.

Seeing that there were dozens of people queuing here, Lei Xinyi felt a headache and wanted to ask Sister Mengmeng if she had the privilege to go up directly.

But when I turned around, I found that Sister Mengmeng had already gone to queue at the back.

Lei Xinyi had no choice but to line up next to Cao Xuemeng and asked her, "Sister Mengmeng, can you tell the people here so we can go up directly?"

"What's the point? Besides, there are so many people queuing in front of you, do you have the nerve to cut in line?"

"How about I take you on my boat and we go boating on the lake." Cao Xuemeng said.

But Lei Xinyi just wants to ride a roller coaster now.

Fortunately, this roller coaster can accommodate 32 people at a time, and one trip plus the queue only takes a few minutes. Although there seem to be a lot of people queuing, they get on quite frequently.

Soon it was their turn.

The two seemed very excited as they enjoyed the thrill of the strong wind blowing on their faces on the roller coaster.

At this time, Cheng Xiaolin had already come under the roller coaster.

Cheng Xiaolin felt helpless as she watched her daughter getting overly excited on the roller coaster.

She also didn't expect that her daughter would quietly run back from the capital.

Especially since she was not told before coming, Cheng Xiaolin is now thinking that her daughter has grown up and is increasingly looking down on her as a mother.

While waiting for her daughter and Lei Xinyi to get off the roller coaster, the two sisters were excitedly chatting about their feelings on the roller coaster when they suddenly heard Cheng Xiaolin's voice from behind: "Mengmeng, why didn't you tell me you were back?"

Cao Xuemeng was startled when she heard her mother's voice.

When I turned my head, I noticed my mother was standing behind me.

"Mom, you scared me to death just now." Cao Xuemeng said, patting his chest.

When Lei Xinyi saw Cheng Xiaolin appear here, she quickly called her Aunt Cheng.

"Xinyi, why didn't you tell me you were coming? You two are such a jerk. You're getting worse as you get older, right?"

"If your grandma hadn't called me just now, I wouldn't have known you were back." Cheng Xiaolin glared at her daughter with resentment in her eyes.

Cao Xuemeng felt embarrassed when his mother looked at him, and quickly explained: "We just arrived. If you don't believe me, ask Aunt Wu later. She is parking in the parking lot."

"Why did you come back at this time?" Cheng Xiaolin didn't understand.

Then I heard her daughter say, "I just finished my work recently, and you sent me a video a few days ago, so I wanted to come back and see the fruit tree flowers."

"You should have said earlier that you wanted to come back to see the flowers. They look better in the orchard. They bloom slowly here." Cheng Xiaolin said to her daughter.

The kiwifruit in the orchard have been given more nutrient solution, and their growth cycle is nearly a month faster than here.

The kiwi saplings left in the park at that time did not receive any additional nutrient solution, so their growth cycle was relatively slow, by more than a month.

Even though there are so many fruit trees planted at home, Cao Xuemeng knows nothing about them.

She just saw that there were no flowers on the kiwi trees in the park and thought that the buds had all withered. She was quite disappointed, but she didn't expect this to be the case.

Lei Xinyi, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but laugh when she saw Sister Mengmeng being humiliated.

Cheng Xiaolin took the two sisters for a walk in the park, and then took them to the mountain to see the fruit tree flowers.

Here, Cao Xuemeng and Lei Xinyi finally got what they wanted and saw the fruit trees in the video blooming particularly luxuriantly.

Taking this opportunity, Cheng Xiaolin also gave them some common sense knowledge.

Having said that, these fruit trees have been flowering for 20 years. Common sense says that they should be in the weak stage of fruiting, but these fruit trees do not show any signs of weakness at all.

This also shows the power of nutrient solution.

……

When I came down from the mountain and returned home, Wang Yuelan was already cooking.

Cheng Rengui and Li Xiaojuan also packed up their stalls and came over to chat with Cao Jianguo.

Cao Shujie was playing with his little daughter Nuannuan in the yard.

Nuannuan is almost three years old. She can speak fluently now and especially likes to play games with her father.

Nuannuan likes to play hide-and-seek the most.

But the problem was that she covered her eyes with her little hands, stared at her father with her fingers apart, and shouted at her father to hide quickly because she wanted to find him.

Cao Shujie felt helpless, thinking that this was not how the game was played.

But it's no use explaining the rules of the game to Nuannuan.

The little girl didn't listen to her father at all. She saw through her fingers that her father was still sitting next to her. She was unhappy at first, pouting and urging her father to hide quickly.

Just at this moment, Nuannuan saw a familiar figure.

She instinctively jumped up and hid behind her father, not daring to come out, but she stuck half of her body out and looked at her sister with her little head held high.

"Dad, look, it's my sister. My sister is back." Nuannuan said with a slightly nervous expression.

Cao Xuemeng: “…”

What does it mean?
So you're so scared of her?

Cao Shujie had already learned the news of Mengmeng's return from his wife.

He was quite happy to see Mengmeng and Lei Xinyi come in together. Cao Shujie invited them to sit down and asked about things in Beijing.

He also asked Lei Xinyi how her father was doing in Beijing.
"Uncle Shujie, my parents are doing well, and they miss you a lot. When I came, my father told me that he wanted you to go to Beijing for a reunion, and he would treat you to a meal." Lei Xinyi said.

But Cao Shujie shook his head: "What's so good about Beijing? The air quality is not as good as our Caojiazhuang, and the food is not as clean as what we eat here. If you want to get together, ask your father to come over."

Lei Xinyi didn't respond. She thought that the only person who could speak to her father in this tone was Uncle Cao Shujie.

Others really don’t dare.

Cao Shujie was about to ask his daughter how her career in Beijing was going, but he heard her mother Wang Yuelan's voice coming from the living room: "Mengmeng, you're back and you don't come back to see grandma."

Cao Xuemeng was scolded by her grandmother and felt a little embarrassed: "Grandma, I'm back now."

"How dare you say that? Come in quickly. I have stewed your favorite steak for you. It has lots of meat and crispy bones." Wang Yuelan said.

Upon hearing this, Cao Xuemeng felt ashamed.

When she came back this afternoon, she didn't think about coming back to see her grandparents first, but went out to play first.

It's a pity that grandma still wanted to stew steak for her. (End of this chapter)
