I came back a little late from the old man's place last night and chatted with Xie Ran and the others. Dong Xuebin naturally took a late nap in the morning. He got up at about ten o'clock in the morning and got up from the master bedroom on the second floor of the villa in Sijiqingqiao.
I kicked off the quilt and got out of bed to wash up.
Wash your face.
brush teeth.
While I was fussing about it, the phone at home rang.
Dong Xuebin hurriedly wiped his face with a towel and went out to pick up the grade on the second floor. No one had lived in the house for a long time. There was a layer of fine dust on the phone. He touched Dong Xuebin's hand and said, "No."
So clean. I originally bought this place for my mother, Luan Xiaoping. My mother married Uncle Yang, which was considered as a filial piety from his son. However, my mother did not want to live there, and Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan were not in the capital, so the house was naturally
With so much time left, it is estimated that only three or four days of the 365 days a year can be occupied. Dong Xuebin only borrows it when others have something to do or have a party. Dong Xuebin basically does not live there himself, even if he comes back occasionally.
When working in the capital, people are still used to living in courtyard houses. It’s so pleasant to live there, it’s large and it’s the center of the city.
"Hello, who's there?" Dong Xuebin didn't use his home phone very much. He showed that he had one, but he didn't save anyone's number, and he didn't know who it was.
"It's me." The mother-in-law's voice came over there.
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "Mom, you got up so early?"
Han Jing said with a smile: "It's still early, it's already past ten o'clock, you just got up, right?"
Dong Xuebin hummed, "I'm just washing my face. I'm not in a hurry so I'm going to sleep in today. My flight is booked for seven o'clock in the evening."
Han Jing said: "You finally come back, why don't you stay a few more days?"
Dong Xuebin smiled bitterly and said: "There are a lot of things going on in the county. I really can't leave. Come on next time, Mom. I will definitely spend more time with you and my dad when I come back next time."
Han Jing sighed and said: "When you and Huilan leave, there is no one around me to talk to, and even if you want to see my grandson, you can't see me. Oh, forget it, I know you are busy, so you are just trying your best."
When I was here, my mother just complained, haha, just come back and check in often. By the way, will you come to the old man's place at noon? Your uncle and aunt took Xie Ran to have dinner with Xiaoling's family to discuss the engagement.
Your father and your second uncle have also gone to work, so we should be the only ones today, oh yes, Xiaojing and Xiaohao also came here."
Dong Xuebin said: "Okay, then I'll pack up my things and I'll definitely arrive at twelve o'clock."
"Don't be in a hurry. It only takes five and ten minutes to drive there," Han Jing said.
Dong Xuebin's villa is near the West Fourth Ring Road, almost next to the old man's house, just a few kilometers away. So Dong Xuebin was not in a hurry to go out. Seeing that the sun was dazzling today and the weather was very good, he looked for it in the cupboard.
After half a day, I dug out a pair of swimming trunks that I had bought before, inflated a small air mattress, and went downstairs to the swimming pool in the backyard with the air mattress in hand. It was full of leaves and soil and was not very clean. After all, it had not been used for a long time.
Dong Xuebin simply cleaned it as quickly as possible, and then filled the swimming pool with water.
The water is very clear.
It sparkles in the sun and is very beautiful.
Dong Xuebin couldn't wait any longer, so he plunged into the water and swam back and forth twice. It was not a hot day yet, nor was it the climate for outdoor swimming. Dong Xuebin immediately felt colder and colder, and trembled as he quickly put on the air mattress.
I grabbed it and climbed up, just leaning on the air mattress and floating on the water to bask in the sun.
It feels good.
How comfortable and comfortable it is.
In the end, Dong Xuebin squinted and rowed to the shore to smoke a cigarette. He felt that his whole body was very relaxed. It is really good to enjoy life once in a while.
half an hour...
One hour...
Dong Xuebin, who was leisurely, finally fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, he found that the sun had already reached the top of his head. Dong Xuebin let out a sigh, tilted his body from the air mattress and flipped into the water with a splash. Dong Xuebin fell from the air mattress.
He poked his head out of the water and swam ashore quickly, ran into the house and looked at his watch. Well, it was already half past twelve. He quickly went to get dressed and get his things, and drove to the old man's place.
Isn't this a delay? I just made an appointment with my mother-in-law to arrive before twelve o'clock, but this is already so late.
…
Not at all.
Dong Xuebin rang the doorbell of the old man's villa awkwardly.
The door opened, and it was Xie Jing who opened it, "Brother-in-law, you are too late."
"I know, I know, where is my mother? Where is my grandpa?" Dong Xuebin walked inside.
"Auntie is inside. Grandpa has finished eating and went upstairs to take a nap." Xie Jing closed the door behind her.
In the living room, Han Jing was sitting on the sofa chatting with Ci Lifen. They were the only two elders there. Xie Guobang and Xie Guojian didn't see them. They must be at work at work, and they were playing with the tablet computer in the corner of the living room.
Xie Hao was probably playing a game. While playing, he made sounds in his mouth to match the actions in the game. When Dong Xuebin came in, he didn't even look at it, just playing by himself.
"Mom." Dong Xuebin said with a smile.
Han Jing looked at him and said, "Check what time it is."
Dong Xuebin hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "I swam for a swim, but ended up lying on the air mattress in the swimming pool and fell asleep. It's up to me, but what, is there still food?"
Ci Lifen smiled and said, "Yes, but it's just leftovers."
"My mother cooked those too, and the leftovers are more delicious than those made in ordinary big restaurants." Dong Xuebin said flatteringly.
Han Jing was amused and said, "This kid has a sweet mouth. Okay, wash your hands and get ready to eat. Mom will heat up the food for you."
"No, no, you sit down and I'll go by myself." Dong Xuebin went to the kitchen.
Xie Jing said: "I really envy my brother-in-law. I also want a private swimming pool."
Ci Lifen smiled and said: "In our family, your brother-in-law is the only one who has this kind of treatment. Even the old man has never lived in a villa with a swimming pool."
This is true. The Xie family is not without money, but they cannot afford this kind of villa. The current public perception is that as long as an official has money, he must have several villas. In fact, that is not the case.
It's a rare case, and money doesn't come from the right way. Political families like the Xie family have always been relatively clean. Not to mention the salaries of Han Jing and Ci Lifen, even people of Xie Guobang's level,
One year's salary is probably not as good as the one-day dividend generated by Dong Xuebin's 20% stake in Zhang Jie's company. This is simply incomparable. As for the several villas that the Xie family currently lives in, they are all divided or divided.
If it is a family home, the house does not even belong to you, and it will not be equipped with a swimming pool. Single-family villas with swimming pools are all commercial luxury homes.
soon.
Dong Xuebin came out with the dish heated in the microwave. As soon as he put it on the table, he couldn't wait to eat it. While eating, he praised it, "It's fragrant, it's so fragrant, it's delicious!"
Han Jing said: "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you, haha."
Dong Xuebin smacked his lips and said, "Don't eat slowly. The more you eat, the hungrier you get."
At this time, Xie Jing went to the bathroom alone.
When Ci Lifen saw that Xie Jing was not there, she started chatting with Han Jing, "Sister-in-law, Xiaoran is also going to start a family. Once my brother gets married, Xiaojing will definitely get married soon. How much do you think we can give then? Ten per person.
Ten thousand? Isn’t that a little less? Or two hundred thousand?”
Han Jing said: "Let's discuss it then."
Ci Lifen hummed, "I'm not in a hurry."
Xie Hao heard this. This kid is a money addict. He didn't play games anymore after hearing this, "So many? Ouch, then I have to get married quickly!"
Dong Xuebin swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "How old are you? You haven't even reached the legal age to get married."
Han Jing was also amused by Xie Hao. She looked at him and said, "When you get married, your aunt will give you a big gift, okay?"
Xie Hao smiled and said, "Thank you, aunt."
Dong Xuebin teased him: "I won't give it to you when you get married."
"I x, how can that be done, brother-in-law!" Xie Hao was anxious, "I only count on your share of the money! If you give me less than one million, then I will feel sorry for you!"
Ci Lifen slapped her son on the head and said, "How can anyone ask for their share of the money?"
Xie Hao refused to listen, "Brother-in-law, please give me more when the time comes. By the way, last time you promised to buy me a car when I enter college. I will take the college entrance examination in a few months. Don't forget it."
.”
Dong Xuebin lowered his head to eat, "Did I say that?"
"I told you! My sister and brother are listening!" Xie Hao screamed anxiously.
Dong Xuebin glanced at him and said, "You didn't even say hello for a long time after I came in. You just played your game without seeing me. Why should I buy you a car?"
Xie Hao immediately softened, and quickly sat down with his smiling face and put his arms around Dong Xuebin, "No, brother-in-law, I didn't see you coming in just now, I was too focused, now I can say hello to you, what?
We can't regret it about the car."
Xie Jing also came out of the bathroom and started laughing with them.
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Xie Jing immediately got up and opened the door with a smile on her face, "It should be my parents who are back."
When the door opened, it turned out to be Xie Guoliang and Xia Yanzhen.
Later, Xie Ran also walked into the room, but his expression seemed very ugly.
Dong Xuebin hadn't finished eating yet. He raised his head and blinked and looked over, not understanding what was going on.
Still Han Jing said: "Guoliang, Yanzhen, what's going on? Didn't the parents of both parties meet to discuss the engagement? This is a happy event, why do you have this expression?"
Ci Lifen asked: "Did you have a conflict with the third child of the Fang family?"
Xia Yanzhen sighed: "No."
"Then...they regretted it?" Han Jing asked.
Xia Yanzhen said: "No, oh, don't mention it. Xiaoling's parents are really a bit too much. I can't even say anything about it. They made me angry, so I just said that this marriage is inappropriate. Xiaoran still
You have to..."
"Mom, please stop saying a few words." Xie Ran said depressedly.
"Guoliang." Han Jing looked at him, "Tell me."
Xie Guoliang paused and said: "It's about the bride price." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
