A gust of north wind blew, and Cao Shujie was so cold that his teeth were chattering. He subconsciously held his hands tightly and huddled together to resist the cold wind.

"It's so damn cold." Cao Shujie muttered.

When they came to the dam, Cao Shujie let go of the four dog leashes and let the four brothers run forward, while he followed slowly behind.

It was the last touch of darkness before dawn. It was the darkest time in the world, and coupled with the cold wind blowing, Cao Shujie felt a little nervous.

Fortunately, Dahei was very loyal and saw the three dogs Daha, Erha and Xiaohei running forward. He leisurely retreated to Cao Shujie, and each dog ran at a constant speed.

Cao Shujie looked at Dahei and laughed subconsciously.

With Dahei by his side, Cao Shujie felt an inexplicable sense of security.

"Dahei, just run as long as you want."

"Woof."

Dahei shouted, as if to say: "You don't have to rush me, I will run with you."

"Dahei, okay, you are loyal enough, I will give you an extra meal when you get back." Cao Shujie thought about getting Dahei a meaty bone when he gets back.

As for the three wild and free-loving dogs in front, they didn't care about him, and Cao Shujie felt there was no need to care about them.

After getting off the river dam, Cao Shujie returned home with his four dogs. His mother, Wang Yuelan, had already prepared breakfast.

After breakfast, Cao Shujie left the house and prepared to join Cao Jianlong and others in the village committee compound.

His mother, Wang Yuelan, called him from behind again.

"Shujie, I will go to the farm restaurant later to help cut vegetables. Remember to come back when you have time to pick up your grandfather, Linlin, and Mengmeng."

"Mom, okay, don't worry." Cao Shujie nodded and agreed.

Walking all the way south, there were a small number of people wandering back and forth on the street. Maybe it was too cold and there were not many people chatting together on the street.

In addition, a big red lantern is hung every other way on the street, which looks particularly festive.

In the village committee compound, Cao Jianlong and the other four were waiting here. In addition to them, there were also some villagers from the village waiting here, waiting for orders.

Seeing Cao Shujie coming, they all gathered around.

"Shujie, you're finally here. Let's go to the farm restaurant to make preparations." Cao Jianlong said.

Cao Shujie looked at the village committee compound hung with red lanterns and felt that the New Year atmosphere was getting stronger and stronger.

"Uncle Long, let's go." Cao Shujie said.

His words were more like a signal, and everyone waiting in the courtyard followed him and walked north together.

It was different from when Cao Shujie came here just now. When they were walking north, there were already many people walking north wearing new clothes along the way.

Seeing their happy faces, with more than 1,000 people gathering together for a meal, Cao Shujie felt that the Chinese New Year was not as lively as this year, and he was really happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Uncle Long, I think today is much more lively than the Chinese New Year." Cao Shujie said.

Cao Jianlong said to him: "Do you still need to say it?"

Except for the innocent children, people like Cao Shujie are really not looking forward to the Chinese New Year.

Red lanterns were also hung at the entrance of the farm restaurant, and a carpet was laid on the ground in front of the entrance.

There were flower baskets about one person tall on both sides of the gate, and the courtyard of the farm restaurant was full of people.

These people are here to help.

First, fill every table in the farm restaurant with dried fruits, snacks, fruits, drinks and wine.

Place two more boxes of cigarettes on each table.

After seeing Cao Shujie and others coming, many people stopped what they were doing to say hello to them.

Secretary Cao, Director Cao has never stopped being called.

Cao Shujie also waved his hand in response. When he saw an elder, he would stop and shout respectfully.

When he sees children running in front of him, Cao Shujie will stop and tell them to run slower.

I would also take a few candy cubes from the plate on the table and hand them to the children, watching the little ones eagerly put the candy into their mouths.

There are those smart, clever and sensible children who will shout thank you, uncle.

Cao Shujie was also happy.
