Chapter 169: Teresa Teng's Gift
The beginning of September is the day of school, although Ye Tian has been so busy that his feet do not touch the ground, but in the afternoon, he had to spare part of the time to go to Central, Hong Kong, the first day of school, he had to drive to pick up, thinking that from then on there was such an obligation, Ye Tian had the idea of hiring a driver.
Deep Water Bay Villa, Ye Tian still came by taxi, and he needed to prepare a house for his children before picking up Xiao Budian and coming back.
When he opened the gate of the villa and passed by the swimming pool, Ye Tian was thinking about how to explain to Deng Lijun when a figure suddenly emerged from the water.
"Wow!"
"Ahh
Ye Tian was surprised, but in exchange for a scream, Deng Lijun saw the figure on the shore clearly, and immediately showed a complaining look.
"Why don't you come in without knocking?"
This seems to be my home, Ye Tian shrugged helplessly, the clear pool water could not hide Deng Lijun's wonderful figure, Deng Lijun's cheeks were ruddy, her hands couldn't help but protect her chest, hiding in the pool, only revealing a small head.
Ye Tian's attention was quickly attracted by a brand-new running out, a red convertible Porsche.
"Sister, this is the car you bought?"
"yes, the car I just picked up this morning." Deng Lijun said with a smile, she just drove back from this car.
Ye Tian looked around the car, just looking at the appearance, there is no difference between sports cars and popular cars in the 21st century, but the steering wheel of Hong Kong cars is on the right side, and travel is on the left, which Ye Tian was very unaccustomed to, and later often traveled back and forth to Hong Kong, so he got used to it.
"You drove it back?"
"No, the salesman in the store is a favor."
Like Ye Tian, Teresa Teng is not familiar with Hong Kong's traffic rules, she drives in Taiwan, and the car is on the right, with the steering wheel on the left. She likes sports cars very much, but it's awkward to sit on them.
There is also a strong smell of perfume, and it is indeed a woman's mount.
"Sister, can you lend me the car?"
"Okay, what are you going to do?"
Teresa Teng tried her best to pretend to be no one around and came out of the pool. Quickly wrapping up the bath towel, the corners of Ye Tian's mouth were upturned, and he couldn't see that Deng Lijun didn't look tall, her thighs were quite beautiful, and her figure was also good.
Ye Tian looked at Deng Lijun looking over, hurriedly turned his head to look at the sports car, and said, "I'll pick someone up!" ”
"Is Miss Zhao coming back?"
"No, she is filming in Taiwan, and it will take half a month. I'm picking up a kid. ”
"Oh!"
Deng Lijun breathed a sigh of relief, if Zhao Yuzhi came back, she would be embarrassed to disturb the world of the two, the scenery here sounds very like, like a resort, and the boring work has become interesting.
Ye Tian explained: "I have a little niece who is out of school today, and her parents live in Wong Tai Sin. One is a police officer, busy training for promotions. I can't spare time to take care of my little daughter at home, so I want to take her over and take a few hours to drive home, but it is more convenient to live here. ”
"How old is she?"
"Five!"
Deng Lijun smiled: "Wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes." Go with you! ”
"What's the matter, you're afraid I'll break your new car?"
"No, I'm going to get to know my little neighbor for the first time!"
Ye Tianwan'er, after waiting outside for a while, Deng Lijun changed into a cool outfit. Throw the car keys to Ye Tian.
"You come and drive."
"Hmm"
Ye Tian recalled the traffic rules in Hong Kong, opened the right door, and after Deng Lijun fastened his seat belt, he started the car, slowly reversed the car out of the villa and parked it, and then ran down to lock the villa gate.
Seeing that Ye Tian was familiar with the driving action, Deng Lijun was envious and annoyed, and complained: "Hong Kong is really troublesome, how can you drive on the left?" ”
Ye Tian also complained about this problem, and he also deliberately searched for relevant information on the Internet, and he understood the reason best.
"In fact, before the Napoleonic era, the world's cars drove on the left-hand side!"
"Hey, does the car have anything to do with Napoleon?" Deng Lijun's eyes widened, and she seemed very interested.
Ye Tian skillfully turned, slowed down the car, he hadn't driven for a long time, and he was really a little unaccustomed, besides, this Porsche sports car was very different from a few decades later, driving on a flat road with few vehicles, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, it's interesting to say that most countries in the world now drive on the right side of the road because of Napoleon, and before the French Revolution, the carriages of the French aristocracy were also used to drive on the left. In the eyes of the oppressed people, walking on the left meant nobility and privilege, while walking on the right had a revolutionary meaning, so the French Revolution and the vehicles went right. ”
Deng Lijunqiong's nose wrinkled, looking very angry.
Ye Tian said with a smile: "After Napoleon came to power, he launched a war to conquer Europe, and wherever France occupied, he brought the rule of relying on the right side, Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain, Belgium, and so on. ”
Deng Lijun tilted her head and said confusedly: "Then why are there countries that drive on the left?" ”
Ye Tiandao: "Because Napoleon did not occupy LinkedIn, with Napoleon, Europe no longer collectively engaged in 'left-leaning', and similarly, Britain also brought its own norm of relying on the left to its vast colonies, such as India, Pakistan, Singapore, Australia, South Africa, etc. unswervingly took the left line, and Hong Kong is the same." ”
"Among Britain's many colonies, the United States is an exception, because the United States has become independent only after a long war with Britain, and France has given some help in it, in order to completely draw a line with Britain, the United States has changed from 'driving on the left' to 'driving on the right' in road traffic at the beginning of its founding."
Teresa Teng felt a sense of disgust, but she didn't expect that the small traffic rules were also related to the war between countries.
Ye Tian said: "It is not only the United States that has changed the 'left and right camps' due to the war, Hungary, Austria, and the Czech Republic were occupied by Germany in World War II before they changed to drive on the right, when the United States joined the camp of driving on the right, the balance of power on the left and right began to change significantly, due to the need to observe the road conditions while driving, driving on the right and driving on the left determines the difference between 'driving on the left and driving on the right', such as this Porsche, the United States is the birthplace of the modern automobile industry, the United States' Left-hand drives' are dumped all over the world, and it largely determines the question of whether many countries go left or right. ”
"Medium. The country is typical, before 1945. Middle. All countries drive on the left-hand side of the road. This is because of the time in . The country was mainly the British sphere of influence, and after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, American automobiles began to enter China in large numbers. In one fell swoop, the "left-hand car" dominated the number of cars, and frequently caused accidents and crashes, so the Nationalist Government ordered that it should start on January 1, 1946. Cars always drive on the right. ”
"In addition, the United States also 'occupied' Canada by the way, and the number of countries driving on the left has gradually decreased, until now, most of the countries driving on the left are island countries, such as the United Kingdom and Japan. One goes to the right. ”
Sweden held a referendum on the "left and right" issue, and more than 80 percent of the people did not agree with the reforms, but the Swedish parliament was determined to solve the problem of transportation with its neighbors, and even used the military to maintain traffic order. With such a strong push, Sweden finally succeeded in reforming. ”
"Pakistan is not so lucky, and 20 years ago, the Pakistani government finally decided to reform. But the government's idea was opposed by many people, and the biggest opposition was actually because of camels. ”
"Camels?"
"yes!"
"You haven't been to Pakistan. There were a lot of camel carts there, and the camels had a habit of going the old way, and it was almost impossible to expect these stubborn guys to change their habits, so the Pakistani government had to surrender to the camels. ”
Deng Lijun pursed her lips and smiled: "I didn't expect the country to lose to a group of camels!" ”
Ye Tian smiled and nodded.
Deng Lijun said ignorantly: "I transport the car back to Taiwan, do I still need to modify it?" ”
Ye Tian smiled: "It's not necessary. As long as you get used to it. ”
Deng Lijun said angrily: "One on the left and the other on the right, you will crash, how can you get used to it...... It's better to stay in Hong Kong. ”
Ye Tian said unexpectedly: "Don't want it?" ”
"I've sent you, it's just the accommodation fee!"
"No, I'll buy it."
Deng Lijun said angrily: "Are you talking to me about money?" ”
"No, it's not. This car ......"
"That's right, just give me a gift to you."
Ye Tian immediately felt close to the car, and unconsciously began to speed up, Deng Lijun knew the traffic rules in Hong Kong, and he wanted to buy such an expensive car, he might have planned to give the car to him a long time ago, this sister is well-intentioned and really generous.
"Haven't you arrived yet?"
"That's it ahead!"
The parking lot was full of all kinds of luxury cars, and Ye Tian parked the cars in order.
"Here we are."
Deng Lijun smiled: "This is an aristocratic school, right?" ”
"You can see that, too."
"Hmph, don't underestimate me, I used to go to school to perform, and I know these best."
Ye Tian and Deng Lijun got out of the car, and according to the school teacher's reminder, they stood in the designated area and waited, most of them were surrounded by driver bodyguards, and there were few parents.
"Look, the babies are out!"
"It's so cute!"
……
Seeing cute children passing by, Ye Tian couldn't help but smile.
Deng Lijun asked with interest: "Which is your little niece?" ”
Ye Tian's eyes were looking around, and he also wondered that the people around him had received children, why didn't they have a little bit.
"Big brother, don't look back, guess who I am!"
Just when Ye Tian was in a hurry, a small excited voice came from behind him.
Deng Lijun turned around, was amused by the wonderful expression on Xiao Budian's face, and praised: "What a cute child! ”
Xiao Budian hurriedly hugged Ye Tian's thighs and whispered, "Big brother, who is she?" ”
Ye Tian hugged Xiao Budian in his arms and introduced: "This is my sister, my eldest brother is very busy these days, can my sister take care of you?" ”
Deng Lijun pinched her little face, and smiled sweetly: "Call my sister quickly." ”
Xiao Budian hid in Ye Tian's arms, very reluctant, and said in a milky voice: "The teacher said that you are not allowed to talk to strangers." (To be continued......)
