Power and Wealth

Next time.

Sunday.

It was a little late to come back from the old man last night, and he talked to them. In the morning, Dong Xuebin naturally slept in a lazy sleep. Starting at more than 10: 00 a.m., he rolled over from his home and the master bedroom on the second floor of the villa in the Four Seasons Green Bridge, kicked off the quilt and got out of bed and washed.

Wash your face.

Brush your teeth.

Tormented, the home phone rang.

Dong Xuebin rushed out with a towel and picked up the grade on the second floor. No one had lived in the house for a long time. There was a fine layer of dust on the phone, and he touched Dong Xuebin's hand, which was not so clean. Originally bought this place for Ma Xiaoping, Ma married Uncle Yang, even though he is a little respectful as a son, but Ma doesn't want to live there, Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan are not in Beijing City, the house is naturally empty, three hundred and sixty-five days a year is estimated to be able to live there, it is still someone else's business or a party to manage Dong Xuebin to borrow so much, Dong Xuebin is basically unable to live there, even if he comes back to Beijing City occasionally, he is still used to living in a four-headed hospital, how painful, huge, still downtown.

“Hello, who is it?” Dong Xuebin hasn't used his home phone much, but he hasn't kept anyone's number, and he doesn't know who it is.

“It's me." That's my mother-in-law.

Dong Xuebin laughed: “Mom, are you up so early? ”

Han Jing smiled. “It's early. It's after 10: 00. You just got up, right? ”

Dong Xuebin shouted, “I'm washing my face. I'm in no hurry to sleep today. My flight is booked at 7: 00 pm. ”

Han Jing said: "Why don't you come back and stay a few more days? ”

Dong Xuebin smiled bitterly: “There are a lot of things in the county, I really can't walk away. Next time, Mom, I will definitely stay with you and my dad. ”

Han Jing sighed: “You walk with Huilan, I don't even have anyone to talk to, I want to see my grandson can't even watch. Alas, forget it, I know you're busy, and it's just when you're about to be strong, Mom just complains, huh, just come back often to check it out, by the way, are you coming to the old man's place at noon? Your aunt and uncle took Xie Lan to dinner to discuss the engagement with Xiaoling's family, * * and your uncle went to work. It should be just the two of us today. Oh yes, Xiao Jing Xiaoho also said so. ”

"'Fine,' said Dong Xuebin. 'I'll pack my things and be there at 12: 00. ”

“Don't worry, it's only a five-minute, 10-minute drive from here.” Han Jingdao.

Dong Xuebin's villa is near the Western Fourth Ring, near the old man's house, a few kilometers away. Therefore, Dong Xuebin was not in a hurry to go out. Seeing the sun shake the weather today, he turned out a pair of previously bought swimming pants from the cabinet for half a day, inflated a small air cushion and went downstairs to the swimming pool in the backyard, which was full of leaves and soil. It was not very clean. After all, it had been a long time. Dong Xuebin simply cleaned it at the fastest speed and then filled the pool with water.

The water is very clear.

Beautiful with waves of light in the sun.

Dong Xuebin couldn't wait. He stuck his head in the water and swimmed back and forth for two laps. It's not even hot weather yet, nor is it the outdoor swimming climate. Dong Xuebin immediately felt colder and colder. He hurriedly grabbed the air cushion and climbed up, leaning against the air cushion and floating with the water.

Feels good.

How comfortable it is.

Dong Xuebin finally squinted his eyes and went ashore to smoke a cigarette. He felt that his body and mind were particularly relaxed. It's really nice to enjoy life once in a while.

Half an hour...

One hour...

Dong Xuebin fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, he realized that the sun had reached the top of his head. Dong Xuebin shouted, his body slanted from the air cushion and pounced into the water. Dong Xuebin probed out of the water, and after three strokes and two strokes, he rushed ashore into the house to look at the watch. Okay, it was 12: 30. He flew quickly to get dressed and rushed to the old man. Isn't this a delay? He had just arrived about 12: 00 with his mother? How late is this?

……

Not at all.

Dong Xuebin awkwardly rang the doorbell of the old man's house.

The door opened, and Xie Jing opened the door, "Brother-in-law, you're late. ”

“I know. I know. Where's my mom? Where's Grandpa?” Dong Xuebin walked in.

“Auntie was in there, Grandpa had gone upstairs to take a nap.” Xie Jing closed the door behind him.

In the living room, Han Jingzheng and Xi Lifen sat on the sofa and chatted. Just the two elders, Xie Guobang and Xie Guojian didn't see it. It must be the work unit. Then, he played with Xie Hao on the tablet in the corner of the living room. He estimated that he was playing the game. While playing with his mouth, he made a sound to match the action in the game. Dong Xuebin came in and he didn't even look at it, watching himself play.

“Mom.” Dong Xuebin chuckled.

Han Jing looked at him, “Look at what time it is. ”

Dong Xuebin hurriedly compensated: “After swimming, I fell asleep on the air cushion with the pool. Rely on me. What, is there any rice? ”

"Yes, but it's just leftovers. ”

“That's what my mom cooked, too. The leftovers are better than the big restaurants.” Dong Xuebin slapped his ass.

Han Jing had a little fun, “This kid, this is the sweet mouth. Come on, wash your hands and get ready to eat. Mom will warm the dishes for you. ”

“No, no, you sit me down.” Dong Xuebin went to the back cook.

"'I envy my brother-in-law,' said Xie Jing. 'I want a private pool, too. ”

"Our family, your brother-in-law has not even lived in a villa with a swimming pool. ”

This is true, they Xie family doesn't have money, but they can't afford this kind of villa. The public now thinks that as long as the official is rich, they have to have several villas. In fact, those are only a few examples, and the money is not on the right path. The political-political-family-clan like Xie family has always been cheaper, let alone Han Jing and Ci Lifen's wages. Even at the level of Xie Guo Bang, there is no one-year wage, even if there is no one-day dividend from Dong Xuebin's 20 percent stake in Zhang Sister Company. This is simply incomparable. As for Xie family members, the villas they now live in are divided up or belong to the family yard. The house is not even purely their own, and there will be no single villa with a swimming pool, which is a commercial luxury.

Soon.

Dong Xuebin came out with a hot dish from the microwave oven. He put it on the table and couldn't wait to eat it. He praised it while eating it. "It smells so good, it's delicious! ”

"'Eat slowly,' said Han Jing. 'Nobody's robbing you. ”

Dong Xuebin muttered: “It's not too slow to eat. The more I eat, the more I'm hungry. ”

At this point, Xie Jing went to the bathroom alone.

As soon as she saw Xie Jing was not here, she talked to Han Jing. “Sister-in-law, Xiao Xiao is about to become a family. As soon as her brother gets married, Xiao Jing will surely be here soon. How much do you think we should give her? $100,000 each? Isn't that a little small? Or 200,000? ”

"“ We'll talk about it later, "said Han Jing. ”

Charlie Finn mumbled, "It's not urgent. ”

Xie Hao heard me. This kid is a fan. He doesn't play games anymore. "So much? Well, then I have to get married, too. ”

Dong Xuebin swallowed the rice in his mouth. “How old were you? You're not even old enough for a legal marriage. ”

Han Jing was also amused by Xie Hao. He looked at him and said: "When you get married, your aunt will give you a gift, okay? ”

Xie Hao smiled. “Thank you, Auntie. ”

Dong Xuebin teased him: “I won't give it to you if you get married. ”

“Holy shit, that's not gonna work, brother-in-law!” Xie Hao is in a hurry, "I'm counting on your money! If you give me less than a million dollars, I'm sorry! ”

Cillivan shot her son in the head, “Where did you get yourself the money?" ”

Xie Hao didn't listen, “Brother-in-law, you have to give me more. By the way, the last time you promised me to go to college, you bought me a car. I'll have a college exam in a few months, don't forget. ”

Dong Xuebin lowered his head for dinner, "Did I mention that? ”

“Yes, I did! My sister and my brother are listening!” Xie Hao shouted in a hurry.

Dong Xuebin glanced at him, “I've been in the door for half a day and your boy didn't even say hello. He didn't see me playing your game, so I bought you a car? ”

Xie Hao immediately softened up and sat down with Dong Xuebin with a smile on his shoulder. “No, brother-in-law, I didn't see you come in just now. I'm too focused. Now I can say hello to you. So what, let's not regret the car. ”

Xie Jing also came out of the bathroom and joked with them.

At this time, the doorbell rang. Xie Jing immediately got up and opened the door. She also smiled on her face. "My parents should be back. ”

The door was open. It was Xie Guoliang and Xia Yanzhen and his wife.

Back there, thanks for walking into the house with me, but the expression didn't look good.

Dong Xuebin hasn't finished eating yet. He looked up and blinked and didn't understand what was going on.

Or did Han Jing say: "Guo Liang, Yanzhen, what is this? Aren't parents on both sides meeting to discuss engagement? It's a joy. Why is that face? ”

Xi Lifen asked: "Are you in conflict with the Fang family? ”

Xia Yanzhen sighed: “No. ”

“So... they regret it?” Han Jing asked.

Xia Yanzhen said: “No, alas, don't mention it. Xiaoling's parents are really a little too much. I can't even say it anymore. It made me angry. I told you this marriage was not suitable. It must be small..."

“Ma, just say less.” Thank you, depressed.

“National good.” Han Jing looked at him, “he said. ”

“" It's a matter of the bride price, "said Xie Guoliang.” (To be continued.)
