Before Cheng Xiaolin could say more, Mengmeng squeezed over again, her head occupying the entire phone screen: "Dad, let me tell you..."

Cao Shujie had a headache just looking at Mengmeng. He really didn't want to talk to his daughter.

If I have this time, I might as well chat with his wife more.

He said: "Mengmeng is obedient. Look how quiet Rui Rui is. You can also play with your brother. I have something to tell your mother."

After Mengmeng heard this, she hummed: "Dad, I won't pay attention to you anymore."

"I can't wait to do it," Cao Shujie said.

Unexpectedly, just after he finished speaking, his son Cao Yirui's very weak voice sounded: "Sister, please step aside, I want to talk to dad."

Cheng Xiaolin laughed heartily from behind.

A family of four had a video chat for more than half an hour. Mengmeng and Ruirui, siblings, were vying for the priority to chat with their father in front of the video. They almost got into a fight. Cheng Xiaolin thought they were too noisy, so she hung up the video chat.

At the end, she told her husband that she must take good care of grandpa.

They play outside for a few days and then go back.

"Mom, I can't, I want to play for a few more days." Mengmeng shouted loudly.

She felt like she hadn't been out to play in a long time.

Cao Shujie didn't even bother to complain about his daughter. She could do whatever she liked.

"You should also pay attention to safety." Cao Shujie warned them.

When he hung up the video chat, Cao Shujie went down and took a look. His grandfather was already asleep. Cao Shujie locked the door and then returned upstairs to prepare for bed.

Usually the whole family is here and the house is very lively. Today it suddenly became calmer, and Cao Shujie was not used to it.

He lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep at all, and had no entertainment activities. He went to the outside cabin again, turned on his wife's computer, and prepared to watch movies online to pass the time.

Shaw Brothers martial arts dramas have always been Cao Shujie's favorite.

On the contrary, in the later remakes of the movies, although the shots were very clear, the special effects were explosive, and the movements were exaggerated, Cao Shujie felt that punch-and-kick fighting was more exciting.

For example, "The New One-Armed Sword" played by Ti Lung and David Chiang when they were young, Cao Shujie watched it again.

After watching a movie, Cao Shujie seemed more energetic. He was about to continue watching Liu Jialiang's "Eighteen Martial Arts" and wanted to see the demonstrations of various weapons and hard bridges and hard horses when he suddenly heard a burst of sound from downstairs.

There was a continuous coughing sound. Cao Shujie quickly turned off the sound of the stereo and came down from upstairs to take a look.

Before he entered his grandfather's room, he heard the coughing disappear again. He opened the door and saw that his grandfather was still sleeping in the moonlight. He could also hear the even breathing, and then returned upstairs.

At this moment, Cao Shujie had no intention of watching a movie. He was about to turn off the computer and go to sleep, when he remembered that he hadn't looked at the stocks he bought for a long time, and he didn't know how it was going up now after such a long time.

He calmly opened his stock trading software and saw that the only stock in his capital position area was bright red, and the rise and fall conditions were clear at a glance.

Unknowingly, the closing price of Kweichow Moutai yesterday had reached 58 yuan. Cao Shujie had not traded it since adding a position in 2015.

Up to now, its total holdings have gone through two dividends and stock transfers, plus the subsequent increase in positions, and it holds a total of 36 lots. The fraction is mainly from the transfer of shares.

His stock cost has dropped to 43 yuan, and the overall position profit is 231%.

Counting from the time the position was added in 2015, it has tripled in two years. This steady growth can only be said to be generally satisfactory.

In Cao Shujie's view, if the money was invested elsewhere, he might get more.

Of course, you may lose everything.

After turning off the stock trading software, Cao Shujie took a look at the Bitcoin trading center, which he had barely logged into this year. The price of one coin had risen to US$99, and it had been trading sideways at a high level recently.

Although Cao Shujie has little investment experience in this area, he also understands a truth.

According to the current sideways trading duration and trading volume, there will be new highs later.

Cao Shujie is not sure how much the stock can rise in the future, but he wants to wait until the upward trend is over and then sell in batches after confirming the downward trend.

Cao Shujie also understands the truth that the decline of any thing will have an up and down period of time to digest.

After turning off the computer, Cao Shujie returned to the bedroom and sent a message to his wife before going to bed: "Good night, dear!"

Then he threw the phone aside and fell asleep.

When Cao Shujie woke up at around 5 a.m. on the second day, he took his four dogs to the dam for exercise. After coming down from the dam, he hurried home to cook.

He and his grandfather were the only two people at home, and Cao Shujie seemed very busy.

After he finished serving his grandfather, he took the time to go to the factory in the town, but he didn't stay long. He bought some lunch in the town and then came back.

"Shujie, are you back so early?" Cao Zhenghu asked his grandson.

Cao Shujie told his grandfather that there was nothing going on in the factory: "I can't do much work if I stay there. Besides, my dad's stall..."

"Isn't there someone watching you?" Cao Zhenghu asked him.

Cao Shujie laughed and didn't answer any more.

Grandpa was right. There was someone watching his father's stall and there was no need for him now. Cao Shujie was in the most relaxed state at the moment.

"Grandpa, I'm not busy this afternoon. Can I push you to go to the park for a walk?" Cao Shujie asked him.

However, Cao Zhenghu waved his hand and told his grandson that he would not go out today.

"What makes you uncomfortable?" Cao Shujie was very nervous.

He was afraid that something would happen to his grandfather.

Cao Zhenghu smiled: "Nothing happened. Your uncle will come over later. You can cook some dishes. Your uncle will have dinner here in the evening."

"Okay, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll prepare it." Cao Shujie asked his grandfather.

Knowing that Cao Zhenghu wanted to eat rice was not a difficult task. The key was that his grandfather could not eat much.

"Grandpa, do you want to eat another fish?" Cao Shujie asked him.

Seeing his grandfather nodding, Cao Shujie went to the refrigerator to search, but there was really no fish.

He told his grandfather and went to Dafulun Supermarket in town to buy fresh fish.

One dish was definitely not good enough, so Cao Shujie bought something else. After returning home, he looked at the inventory in the refrigerator and started to work.

When uncle Cao Jianlin came over, Cao Shujie had already prepared the dishes and was waiting to be cooked.

"Uncle, you talk to grandpa first, and I'll start cooking." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Jianlin was not in a hurry and asked his nephew to cook less.

"Shujie, have your parents and Linlin gone out?" Cao Jianlin asked.

Cao Shujie didn't hide it, and told him to go out for a few days and wait to come back before the middle of the month.

"That's good. Where did they go?" Cao Jianlin asked.

This time Cheng Xiaolin took the whole family out with no clear purpose. She just took them around to see the scenery outside.

Cao Shujie also told his uncle, and Cao Jianlin was really envious after hearing this.

He was also thinking about when his two sons could take him out for a walk.

"Uncle, did they tell you that my eldest brother and second brother were coming back in the middle of the month?" Cao Shujie asked casually.

After hearing the uncle say that he had already told him, Cao Shujie didn't say any more.

Cao Jianlin looked at his old father without any trace. In fact, he could also tell that his father's state was not right.

This intermittent situation started last year.

At his old father's age, Cao Jianlin also thought that his father could live a few more years, but Cao Jianlin was also 70 years old, and he knew in his heart that just because his thoughts were good did not mean that the outcome would be wonderful.

"Dad, Yichuan will take the college entrance examination next year. Do you want to see your eldest grandson go to college?" Cao Jianlin walked to his old father and sat down to chat with him.

Tell him about the college entrance examination that your eldest grandson Cao Yichuan will take next year.

After Cao Zhenghu heard this, he felt very happy.

Cao Shujie listened to the chat between his grandfather and uncle outside and hurriedly went to cook.

After he finished cooking, put the food on the dining table, and called his grandfather and uncle to prepare for the meal, his wife sent a WeChat video.

Cao Shujie saw that the background should be in a hotel.

Looking at the antique decoration, it didn’t take long for Mengmeng and her brother Cao Yirui to block the cell phone camera with their faces.

The argument got so intense that the siblings started to fight together.

When Cao Shujie saw this scene, he found it really disturbing, but his grandfather Cao Zhenghu and uncle Cao Jianlin felt very happy after seeing it.

The two little guys calmed down when they saw that both the old man and the old man were there.

Father Cao Jianguo also said hello to his uncle and told his family that they were in the ancient city of Xi'an today and are now near the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in the Qinling Mountains. They plan to visit the Terracotta Warriors and Horses pits tomorrow.

Cao Shujie thought about the distance between the two places and admired them for running 800 kilometers in two days. They probably didn't have much fun on the way.

However, seeing that Mengmeng and her brother Cao Yirui were both eager to show off and tell him where they went today, where they went to play yesterday, and what they were eating now, Cao Shujie thought that it would be good if the two of you could live in peace for a while.

"Hurry up and eat. We have just finished cooking and are preparing to eat." Cao Shujie said to them.

"Mengmeng, say goodbye to grandpa, grandpa." Cheng Xiaolin said.

Mengmeng is very well-behaved and follows her mother's instructions.
