Two days later.
In the morning, around eight o'clock.
In Houhai Courtyard House, Dong Xuebin got up. The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to hold the phone in his hand and dial Zhang Longjuan.
Toot toot.
The signal is not very good. The Power of Time and Wealth 1613
After a while of noise, the call was connected.
"Ha, is this my Little Handsome Guy?" Big Sister Zhang's charming and sexy voice floated out.
Dong Xuebin felt very comfortable, turned over and said, "It's me, what are you doing Sister Zhang?"
Zhang Longjuan smiled and said, "It's work, it's just morning at your place, right? Haha, I miss you Sister Zhang as soon as I open my eyes?"
Dong Xuebin said yes, and said, "I miss you, is your work okay? Has it been solved?"
A lighter rang over there, and Zhang Longjuan said, "Still communicating, there's no big problem. It's just that I can't see my Little Handsome Guy these days, and I feel very depressed, ha."
"Haha, come on, you arrived yesterday, right? You didn't know how to call me to tell me that you were safe." Dong Xuebin said.
"We, sister and son, are jet lag. You Sister Zhang are afraid of disturbing your boy's rest. I feel so sorry for you." Zhang Longjuan said with a smile.
"Okay, I know you're busy, so I won't disturb your work." Dong Xuebin yawned, "It's time for me to get up too."
Zhang Longjuan smiled and said, "This time it's an emergency. I can't help it. It's also a force majeure factor. Ha, I'll make it up to you little brat when we meet next time Sister Zhang. Okay, I won't be with you anymore. There's a lot of things waiting for you here Sister Zhang. I'm hanging up."
"Well, call me if you have something to do." Dong Xuebin hung up the phone.
Immediately, he gave Xie Huilan, Qu Yunxuan, Yu Meixia, Geng Yuehua, Jiang Fangfang, Xu Yan and others called one by one without even talking to each other. They just asked if anything was okay. Finally, they also called Mom and his mother-in-law. Dong Xuebin almost had to make a round of calls every few days.
It's a new day again.
Oh, what are you going to do?
Putting on his slippers and leaving the house, Dong Xuebin stood in the yard and brushed his teeth without haste. He immediately changed his clothes and went out. There were still two days before going to work. After Big Sister Zhang returned to the Fu Continent, Dong Xuebin started to panic., it was too boring to be alone at home, with nothing to do, so he was going to take a stroll in the alley, which could be regarded as morning exercise. Dong Xuebin did not plan to return to Family Compound in the future, so he planned to settle down in Courtyard House. Of course, he had to get familiar with the environment here.
The air outside is very good.
Places with lakes are different. The autumn wind brings the coolness of the lake and makes the willows rustle. It makes people feel relaxed and happy just by looking at it.
Taking a breath of fresh air, Dong Xuebin stretched, feeling that it was really a pleasure to live here. He even wanted to sell the villas in Xishan, they were not of the same quality.
"Hey, look." The Power of Time and Wealth 1613
"What's wrong Aunt Zheng?"
"That's the new guy who moved here."
"Ah? Is he the one you've been talking about these past few days? Isn't this a single-family courtyard?"
"Yeah, I've always lived alone, and I haven't lived with anyone. He moved here two days ago."
"He lives alone? This is too luxurious. This yard is worth at least several hundred million."
"Who knows, but it looks like he's staying there permanently. I haven't spoken to him, so I don't know where he is from. I can't figure it out."
"How about I ask?"
"Huh? What are you asking?"
"We are all neighbors from now on, so let's say hello."
"Yes, let's go over and ask. Hey, no need, the young man is here."
An aunt in her fifties or sixties and a middle-aged woman looked in the direction of Dong Xuebin and were talking. There were a few people going to work and some old men walking around. They all looked at Dong Xuebin curiously when they heard the sound. Although this alley is very deep, it is not a building after all, and the utilization rate and residents are not particularly large. From the entrance to the end of the alley, everyone basically knows each other. They have been old neighbors for decades. Even if there are some who have never spoken to each other, they generally know each other's last name and what they do. There are no secrets here, so everyone is very curious when they see a young man who has just moved here these days. They are especially curious about how this single-family house Courtyard House, which has not been lived in for many years, suddenly has a resident, and he is still a young man with an undistinguished appearance? In fact, everyone has always thought that the owner of Courtyard House is a wealthy businessman or a big shot. After all, this kind of single-family courtyard is different from the place where seven or eight families live in the same courtyard. It is not affordable for ordinary people. There have been many rumors about Courtyard House, but there is no conclusion. Now we finally see the real owner. Many old residents in the alley are talking about it.
Dong Xuebin locked the door after leaving the yard, and then walked out of the alley. When he saw an elder sister and an aunt looking at him eagerly, Dong Xuebin also smiled kindly and nodded to them.
When the aunt saw it, she immediately said, "Young man."
Dong Xuebin stopped and asked, "Auntie, did you call me?"
The aunt nodded and pointed to the yard behind him, "Is this your home?"
Dong Xuebin smiled and said, "It is now,
I will live with this guy from now on. "
The aunt asked curiously, "Where are the adults in your family? Why didn't you see them?"
Dong Xuebin smiled slightly, "My mother doesn't live with Capital City, I live alone. Aunt, eldest sister, you two live here too, right? I just moved here and have a lot of things to do, and I haven't had time to visit yet. We will all be neighbors from now on. I am young. If there is any place where Bu Zhou goes, I would like to thank you all."
The aunt smiled and said, "You're being polite, I won't say much."
After hearing his accent, the eldest sister said kindly, "At first glance, he sounds like a kid from our alley."
"Yes." The aunt smiled and said, "Are you going out? Are you going to work or going to school?" The Power of Time and Wealth 1613
Dong Xuebin said, "I'm at work, but I'm taking a break these days. I'm getting ready to go shopping. I haven't been to Houhai for many years and I almost don't know my way around."
The eldest sister saw that he was not in a hurry and said, "What do you call him?"
"Dong Xuebin." Dong Xuebin said with a smile, "Just call me Little Dong."
The eldest sister said, "My surname is Ci, haha, this is Aunt Zheng."
Dong Xuebin greeted, "Big Sister Ci, Aunt Zheng."
Aunt Zheng said, "We have become acquainted. Let's move around more in the future."
"Okay." Dong Xuebin pointed outside, "Then I'll go for a walk first, take a walk, and have breakfast. You all can come over to my place and sit down when you have time."
Aunt Zheng patted his hand, "Sure, I've wanted to see your home Courtyard House for a long time. The door is always locked, so there's no chance to visit."
Big Sister Ci also said, "Yes, I have lived there for more than thirty years and have never had the opportunity to enter. The yard has been empty since I was born."
Dong Xuebin cheered, "I'll tidy up the house in a moment, you two come over?"
Aunt Zheng is a little moved. She has retired a long time ago and has nothing to do. "Don't bother me, right?"
"Then why bother? It's not too late for me to be honored." Dong Xuebin is very polite to everyone.
Big Sister Ci said with a cheerful smile, "Young man is really good at talking. Well, that's okay. Aunt Zheng and I will bother you later. You can eat first Little Dong."
"Okay, see you later." Dong Xuebin said goodbye and walked out of the alley.
At this time, several neighbors also walked over and asked about Big Sister Ci and Aunt Zheng Dong Xuebin.
"Sister, how are you?"
"My name is Dong Xuebin. I live alone."
"One person lives in such a big yard?"
"Well, he said it was his house, so he probably bought it."
"Hey, that's quite rich."
"You're sure, this is no ordinary yard."
Many people think that the Capital City people who were born and raised in the hutong Courtyard House are very rich. In fact, this is not the case. They, the old residents, know best that this is not the case at all. On the contrary, their lives are relatively poor. One house has a house, and some are twenty or thirty meters taller, and some are less. There are only a few meters away, and there are three families or even three generations crowded together. Even though the housing prices here are expensive, the real cost shared equally among individuals is basically nothing. Moreover, it is definitely not demolished here, so the housing prices can only be looked at. It has no practical significance for them. Wherever there is money, most of them are relatively poor people. But the yard where the young man lived was different. It was a single-family house, and the yard inside and outside belonged to their family. It was too lavish, and it was impossible to get it without hundreds of millions. Even such a precious yard might not be possible to buy with money.
A middle-aged man murmured, "I see there is a Mercedes-Benz parked outside. Is it his?"
"There is also a Cayenne that was there yesterday. They are both million-dollar cars." A man in his thirties said, "I don't know which car it is."
Not far away, Dong Xuebin had already "touched" out the car key.
Everyone saw it, so they started chatting and guessing.
Then... Then Dong Xuebin used the car key to unscrew a second-hand Xiali car that could no longer be broken. He opened the door and got in, lit a cigarette, and drove out of the alley. The clumsy Xiali car felt like it was about to fall apart at any time.
ah?
Why did you get in this car??
Big Sister Ci almost fell!
The middle-aged man almost spit out a mouthful of old blood!
Everyone watching the excitement in the alley fainted and fell down. They were all stunned!
Xiali? Or Xiali with the paint faded? This crappy car only costs a few thousand dollars on the second-hand market! It is equivalent to the price of a better electric bicycle! It may cost thousands of dollars and no one will buy it! Hearing the creaking noise from the car body, it's not enough to repair the car! They never understood that an owner who could afford to live with hundreds of millions of Courtyard House actually drove a second-hand Xiali? And looking at the young man's leisurely and contented look, you don't feel like you're losing face at all? Is such an old god still here??
The world of rich people is really not something they can understand!
Everyone looked at each other speechless. They had seen low-key people, but never such a low-key one!
Could it be that their family didn't buy this yard? But renting it with a relative or friend? It's so hard to understand! (To be continued)
