Chapter 141: Simple Decoration (1st Update)
After getting the matter of opening the side door of the Yulou, Chen Hao spent a few more days of hard work and rented the five ancestral houses they relied on for survival from the residents of the five old houses.
To say that these ancestral houses were also left by a large family in ancient times, intending to protect their children and grandchildren.
However, these descendants did not give their best, and after having the shade of their ancestral property, they began to be lazy and lazy, and they either relied on part-time jobs to survive in modern times, or they were idle, and they bent their necks all day long praying for a huge amount of demolition compensation one day.
If the ancestor of the rich merchant knew about this, he would probably have to come back to life from the graveyard, right?
Of course, it was the downfall of the residents of these 5 old houses that gave Chen Hao the opportunity to "take advantage of the void".
After signing 5 lease contracts of up to 100,000 yuan per year, these 5 families had already taken the money given by Chen Hao and moved out of these dilapidated houses that even had to share toilets overnight.
As for Zhu Lingling, who works in the jade building next door, after seeing the moving movement of the old mansion nearby in the past few days, she was also shocked by Chen Hao's generous financial resources. From time to time, I came to the moving site of this ancestral house and chatted with Chen Hao about some things.
Anyway, the meaning is very clear, that is, he plans to be close to Chen Hao, a well-developed high school classmate.
After all, wherever rich people go, they will inexplicably bring a magnetic field of attraction.
After finding out that Chen Hao is still single, Zhu Lingling's beautiful eyes flashed with all her might, and even the blush and perfume that she didn't use much on weekdays were evenly applied before coming to work.
As for the navy blue uniform, he changed into a skirt and black stockings that he only wore when attending large-scale events in the city, and stepped on a pair of stiletto heels, entering and exiting from the side door of the jade building every day, observing the decoration progress of Chen Hao's new store.
You must know that her current unit, compared to those serious public institutions, can be regarded as a very miserable Qingshui Yamen.
In the entire cultural relics protection station, except for the stationmaster Xu Yiwen, who is a man, the rest of the staff are all forty or fifty-year-old aunts.
She has been dressed so abnormally these days, not for Chen Hao, could it be that she was dressed for a few security guards at the entrance of the Jade Tower?
Of course, Chen Hao is also happy to have a Yingge Yan dance by his side. After all, it is very depressing to keep an eye on the renovation progress of the new store in this old house.
In addition, Zhu Lingling has been in the cultural relics protection station for 2 years, and has some insights into some Chinese classical decorations.
Like the decoration of some foyer corridors in the old mansion, as well as the pendants on the walls, and the tables and chairs in several private rooms used for dining, Chen Hao bought them according to the instructions of the other party.
Although they are all second-hand mahogany furniture bought from the Ruicheng building materials market, many tables and chairs are still missing arms and legs, which need to be repaired by the carpenter master before they can be used. But as soon as it was placed in Chen Hao's new store, it looked very ancient.
……
Ten days later, in the Ruicheng Harbor Mall next door to the Jade Building, a self-service tea bar on the 3rd floor called Nightingale. Chen Hao was bored sitting at a round table by the window in the corner, watching Zhu Lingling brewing a pot of coffee at the bar from a distance.
I saw her leaning over, tilting her stocking-wrapped calves back, carrying a water hanger in one hand, gently sifting the original juice of boiled coffee with a metal strainer, and then holding a glass open coffee pot, slowly approaching the round table where Chen Hao was.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. ”
"I haven't made coffee in a long time, so I'm a lot rusty. If it doesn't taste good, don't be surprised!" Zhu Lingling blinked her eyes in a pretended to be a little girl, and slowly poured the coffee into the two delicate enamel cups in front of Chen Hao.
The amber coffee pouring out of the glass spout is full of ambiguity of male and female lust under the dim ambient light of the tea bar.
"Thank you. Chen Hao took the enamel cup with a smile and took a sip, the sweet and bitter taste of adding a few spoonfuls of milk cube frosting, as soon as it passed through his throat, most of the sleepiness that had lingered in him all afternoon disappeared in an instant.
"By the way, Chen Hao, why did you ask the carpenter master to vacate such a long piece of open space at the entrance?"
"If there are some bonsai in that place, the effect is probably better. Zhu Lingling held her chin in one hand and pinched an enamel spoon in the other, slowly turning in the quilt full of coffee.
As for her big watery eyes, they stared straight at Chen Hao's face. Coupled with the long black silk legs that she was diagonally crossed to the side, as if she had launched some kind of soul-seducing magic sound, Chen Hao's heart became a little trance-like.
"it!"
"She's not trying to seduce me, is she?" Chen Hao held that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and hurriedly took his eyes away from the other party's lowered neckline, and replied vaguely: "There will be some fish tanks in the entrance, and I have asked the master worker to order them...... Estimate...... It is estimated that it will be shipped over tomorrow and loaded. ”
"That's right!"
"You're planning to open a seafood restaurant, how did I forget about this fish tank?"
"It seems that after working for a long time, people have become a little stupid. Zhu Lingling may have sensed Chen Hao's embarrassment, and while sticking out her tongue, she secretly stuffed the unbuttoned button at the neckline back again.
"By the way, Chen Hao, you are so successful, why don't you find a girlfriend?" Zhu Lingling asked with a change of topic.
"Uh...... College talked about one, and then broke up...... What about you?" Chen Hao didn't know how to pick up this topic, and after swallowing a few words, he simply replied truthfully.
"I used to be ugly!"
"When I was in college, there was no one to chase me. There are 6 sisters in a bedroom, and everyone else has found a partner, and I am the only one left. ”
"Later, after graduation, I paid a little attention to dressing up, but unfortunately there were no suitable boys around. Relatives went to relatives during the New Year, and all kinds of people were urged. Zhu Lingling sighed and complained. As for the long black silk legs that have been adjusting their posture underneath, I don't know when, they passed through the range of the small round table from the sideways state, and stretched directly under the sofa chair on Chen Hao's side.
If Chen Hao hadn't sat with his thighs crossed, it is estimated that he would have had a close contact with the other party.
It's just that as soon as he thought of a round black stockings swaying under his seat, Chen Hao's heart began to beat "bang".
"Mom!"
"What does she want to do? ** me here?" Chen Hao swallowed, drinking the coffee in the cup awkwardly, and at the same time, his eyes kept subconsciously staggering from under the round table.
As for Zhu Lingling, who was sitting opposite Chen Hao, after seeing Chen Hao's embarrassed appearance, she actually laughed "poof", and then spit out Xianglan and said something that made Chen Hao restless: "Old classmate...... Why don't you be my boyfriend?"
