Chapter 643: Live a life of luxury
After this viewing, old Mister Jiang and old Madam Jiang were full of praises.
Xue Mei Li lowered her voice and said, "A large yard of this level cost a lot of money, right?"
Lin Qing He smiled. She didn't say how much money. Just nodded.
Even in the '88, without 500,000 yuan, one can't buy this kind of double-entry.
The usual double-entry cost 300,000 yuan. Not to mention a good location and spacious courtyard dwelling of this kind. Basically one can't buy them.
At least for so many years, Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai hadn't gotten a proper single entry dwelling despite buying some extra houses. They were proper house with garden.
That kind of courtyard dwelling was hard to come by.
Old Madam Jiang merrily commented, "No wonder Xiao Geng doesn't want to go home anymore. So he was living in this enormous yard. If it's me, I don't want to go back."
"Mei Li still got old Jiang and Xiao Yu to take care. I dare not keep her any longer, otherwise Jiang will have to come marching over with his daughter. However, it's fine for you and Uncle Jiang. Just stay here for a while. Delaying your return is okay," Lin Qing He responded.
After strolling, they went in for breakfast. There were ribs, lotus seed congee, steamed buns, soy milk, and deep fried dough stick. They can pick whichever they wanted.
Zhou Gui Lai finished washing up and brought his little sister over for breakfast.
After eating, everyone went about their own business. Lin Qing He got Third to drive Xue Mei Li and the two elderly around. She sorted out the recent manuscript translation project at home. After a while, she didn't want to take it with her. She had to go there for half a month. Better hand in the manuscript before it is delayed.
It was no problem to leave the entertaining to Third.
One morning, Third took Xue Mei Li and the two elderly out and about.
Xue Mei Li had never been to the capital. As for old Mister Jiang and old Madam Jiang, they came here two years ago. But the capital's development in the past two years had really changed with each passing day.
After coming back from exploring, Xue Mei Li sought Lin Qing He. While old Mister Jiang and old Madam Jiang dropped by Father Zhou and Mother Zhou's side.
The older generation had more to say.
Mother Zhou was delighted to see them coming over: "Last time you came, you only stayed a few days. Because Fourth's wife is at that side, I didn't stop you. This time, you have to stay longer. The courtyard dwelling was very spacious. Can accommodate everyone."
"Elder Sister appears younger than two years ago. I am jealous of this vitality." Old Madam Jiang jollily remarked.
Mother Zhou also felt that she was getting younger and younger now. This was because she goes to the park every morning to dance with a fan and learn Beijing opera. So she became like this. The more she lived, the younger she got?
Old Madam Jiang went to set the chessboard with Father Zhou. Old Wang was watching and merrily stayed there. He didn't go to the courtyard dwelling to eat. Instead, he stayed for a meal here.
On the courtyard dwelling side, Xue Mei Li laughed: "You got so many people. Quite lively. Unlike ours. Xiao Geng's eldest grandfather's house is far away. We only visit around New Year's Day. Normally, we don't interact."
"Back then in the apartment building, it was more lively. At that time, they were still teen girls and teen boys. All unmarried. Now it's a bit more quieter than before. One after another married and lived their own lives." Lin Qing He responded.
"That's how it should be. The birds leave their nests when grown up. The best and the most worry-free way is to live separately." Xue Mei Li remarked.
Lin Qing He grinned: "You thought it through now. Before, weren't you still reluctant to let Xiao Geng to come."
Xue Mei Li embarrassedly replied, "He have been by my side since he was little. When I heard that he was coming to the capital and consider how far away it was, I didn't know how he was going to live. Couldn't help but worry about it."
"That's normal." Lin Qing He nodded.
For someone like her, she was willing to let go. When Eldest first entered the military academy, wasn't she looking forward to his call back. Still, she didn't stop him from pursuing his ideals.
"But looking at him now, I have nothing to worry about. Just don't get into trouble." Xue Mei Li smiled.
After her son came to college, he had grown up a lot. Her man had said that he gained a lot of sense of responsibility when he came over here and interacted with his god-brothers. He looked manly.
What's more, he appeared much more cheerful and hearty. It can be said that after this god-relationship, the character shaping of her son was beyond her expectations.
In the past, he was a bit bearish and a little bit promiscuous. She was afraid of him heading on a crooked road. Now she didn't worry about it anymore.
Lin Qing He let her rest assured. The child was doing wonderful. Will definitely be promising in the future.
Jiang Geng had grown up a lot. There was no need to worry about this. Originally, their family got the conditions. Being here, he got affected by her family atmosphere and environment. How can he be crooked.
After the lunch was finished, Lin Qing He told to her: "In the evening, I will take you for a soak in the hot spring. That's truly a treat."
"It's too expensive." Although Xue Mei Li hadn't tried hot springs yet, she knew it was definitely not cheap.
"I'll also go call my younger sister and my future in-laws. It won't be just you." Lin Qing He said.
Xue Mei Li grinned: "I heard that Xiao Geng had went this year during the New Year. Said that he had gone with his second and third brother. Extremely relaxing."
"You will experience it later. For beauty and maintenance." Lin Qing He responded.
Then the topic shifted to beauty. Women never run out of words for this topic. Xue Mei Li was seven-eight years younger than Lin Qing He. Her skin condition was really not as good as Lin Qing He. This was the difference between daily maintenance and no maintenance. .
Zhou Qing Bai was speechless when he listened. What was there really interesting to talk about?
"You still don't treat it seriously? Normally, you grumbled about me doing this on you. Do you know how much younger you are than your peers?" Lin Qing He spoke when she saw his expression.
"This isn't a lie. If I didn't know, I would assume old Zhou reached his 30s, not 40s." Xue Mei Li commented.
Zhou Qing Bai's figure is well maintained. Not the fat pig figure he used to have. Now he was neither fat nor thin. He persist on running and playing basketball every day. When the real summer comes, he will add swimming as an exercise.
Lin Qing He usually applied facial masks on him when she did them. Zhou Qing Bai was unwilling most of the time. Too girly. However, his wife will dislike him, so he was willing to use cucumber on his face occasionally.
Still, don't know what was up the man's skin. He was really living a life of luxury now. The environment nurtured people. So he really didn't look like a forty-something old man. On the contrary, he was more masculine.
Until now, Lin Qing He was still occasionally bewitched by him.
The corners of Zhou Qing Bai's mouth raised slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Lin Qing He continued to chat with Xue Mei Li. This side was better. When she went back to her hometown, her brother looked older than him. It can't be helped. Although life was better now, he was still transporting good through rain and shine every day. Can't be compared.
But to say who had clearly aged the most among the brothers, it was Second Brother.
