Chapter 497 Cao Zhibang Visits
Yesterday's birthday banquet Xu Mei kept in mind, and wanted to give another gift, but she didn't know what to give.
She looked down at the bamboo shoots on the ground, found Cao Zhibang's WeChat and sent a message to him.
【Mr. Cao, are you still in Qiaotou Village? 】
When Cao Zhibang received the news, he smiled knowingly.
It can be regarded as seeing his circle of friends.
Cao Zhibang came to visit the land with people from the government today, and planned to invest in the previous tourism project in Qiaotou Village.
Thinking that Xu Mei lives in the Taohua Village next door, he sent a message to Moments with the mentality of giving it a try, wanting to feel his presence.
The result surprised him.
【Yes, Xu Mei, how do you know I'm in Qiaotou Village? 】
【I just saw the Moments you posted. It’s a coincidence that my house is next door to Qiaotou Village. I’m digging bamboo shoots at home today. I don’t know if you and Cao Yanxi like it. If you like it, I’ll send you some. 】
【no, I'm fine. 】
Xu Mei thought that the other party didn't like food, so she just typed "Okay" and saw the next one before sending it out, [I'll come and get it myself. 】
Xu Mei froze for a moment, then sent out "OK".
At home, Su Zhi and Lu Lin used English for situational conversations. They could not only review their homework but also chat, killing two birds with one stone.
While chatting, they talked about Su Zhi's "first kiss". Just at this time, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Xu Mei came in from the door carrying a bag of bamboo shoots.
Su Zhi quickly squeezed Lu Lin.
Lu Lin shut her mouth knowingly.
The courtyard in the country is just a brick wall, which can block the sight from the outside, but it cannot block the sound.
Xu Mei heard the conversation between the two when she was outside the door, but she didn't think about it deeply, thinking that her daughter and Lu Lin were talking about the plots in TV and novels.
Su Zhi suppressed her guilty conscience, and approached with a smile, "Mom, why are you back?"
Xu Mei put the bamboo shoots by the wall behind the door, and wiped the sweat off her forehead casually.
"Cao Yan's father is coming later, you give him this bag of bamboo shoots."
Su Zhi patted the bulging woven bag, and asked casually, "How does Uncle Cao know that my family is digging bamboo shoots?"
"I saw that he was next door, so I asked, and he said he wanted to come and get it by himself."
Su Zhi blinked, "Why do you want to give bamboo shoots to others when you are so good? Give so much back."
Xu Mei glared at her dumbfounded, "Look how stingy you are, I didn't see you move your chopsticks less at the birthday party yesterday, what's wrong with giving someone a bag of bamboo shoots?"
Of course Su Zhi didn't feel sorry for the bamboo shoots, she just thought it was strange that her mother asked Cao Zhibang if he wanted to eat bamboo shoots.
Actually, Su Zhi was thinking too much. Xu Mei has a strong temper and doesn't want to owe others.
Yesterday, on Cao Yan’s birthday, she bought some exercise books as presents, but only after she went there did she find out that the birthday party was very luxurious. This made her feel uneasy, so she planned to repay the favor with winter bamboo shoots.
Placing the bamboo shoots away, after giving Su Zhi a few instructions, Xu Mei went out to the back mountain again.
The dug bamboo shoots must be packed and transported down the mountain before dark, otherwise they will be damaged if it rains at night.
A few minutes after Xu Mei went out, Cao Zhibang arrived.
Cao Zhibang was generous to his son Cao Yan, and bought a sports car worth tens of millions without blinking an eye, but he kept a low profile and drove a Volkswagen Phaeton.
However, the car is low-key, but the license plate is not low-key. The five nines fully demonstrate the identity and status of the owner.
Su Zhi directly led Cao Zhibang into the yard. A bag of bamboo shoots weighed at least 30-40 catties. Neither she nor Lu Lin could move it, so Cao Zhibang had to move it by himself.
