Chapter 52: First Love
Lin Jinghao's hometown is located on the outskirts of a quasi-second-tier city, with beautiful mountains and rivers, and it is not far from the city center. Originally, it was called "poor mountains and bad waters" during the war, and in 2010, it was positioned as a tourist development zone by the municipal government. With the development of the city, the housing prices of the entire development zone are also 'rising'. Lin Jinghao's house used to be the largest and earliest villa area here, with an area of more than 5,000 square meters, so when the demolition was built, it was a whole residential building, and this building was also named 'Jinrong Building' in order to commemorate his father's contribution to his hometown.
Kam Wing House is located on the street of Kam Wing Court, with a total of six floors, six units, two households on each floor, 12 units in one unit, and a total of 72 houses in six units. When Lin Bo took Lin Jinghao to drive the car and came to his own house, Lin Jinghao was also a little surprised.
"Jing Hao, this is the building that your family demolished and built at the beginning, Uncle didn't treat you badly." Limber got out of the car, and in front of their car, there was already a row of men and women in dark blue suits, waiting for them.
"Township Chief Lin, is the big owner here?" There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone surrounded Lin Bo at once, but instead, Lin Jinghao, who came down from the cab, was the driver and cooled aside.
"Jing Hao, these are the intermediaries and charter companies I found for you." Lin Bo turned around and called Lin Jinghao.
"Oh my God, the big owner is so young." With Lin Bo's introduction, Lin Jinghao was immediately surrounded.
"Mr. Lin, hello, I am..."Lin Jinghao was instantly drowned in a sea of sound.
"Brother Jinghao," Lin Jinghao was overwhelmed when he suddenly heard a familiar cry in his ears.
He looked up and followed the voice. Outside the crowd, there stood a girl who was also wearing a dark blue suit, her appearance was so familiar, but for a moment, I couldn't remember who she was.
"Lin Jinghao!" The girl saw that Lin Jinghao didn't seem to remember who she was, she looked at it, crossed her waist with one hand, raised one hand to her chest, stretched out her index finger, pointed at Lin Jinghao and shouted.
This action Lin Jinghao is too familiar, this is a memory that can never be erased from the bottom of his heart.
"Li Qing." Lin Jinghao called out her name, but she didn't expect that the little girl who always made trouble for herself back then has now grown into a lady.
"Brother Jing Hao, you're finally back." Seeing that Li Qing and the big owner knew each other, the people around them automatically dispersed.
"yes, is your sister okay?" Lin Jinghao finally asked what he wanted to ask.
"Brother Jing Hao, I am also working as a real estate agent now, this is our company's information, you can take a look first." Li Qing didn't answer Lin Jinghao's question, she stood opposite him and handed him a brief introduction to the real estate agency.
"Mr. Lin, you can also take a look at me." As soon as Li Qing approached the big owner and played the 'family card', the intermediaries next to him couldn't hold back any longer, and after a while, Lin Jinghao received a stack of information in his hands.
"Everyone, everyone, we will read everyone's information slowly, and we will call you when the time comes." Lin Bo saw that the intermediaries were still surrounding Lin Jinghao, and he couldn't wait for him to make a decision immediately, so he could only speak out and let them disperse.
"Jing Hao, you take a good look at these materials, see that there is one you are satisfied, pick one, I still have something to go to the front to see." You haven't been back for so long, so just take a walk. Lin Bo was about to leave, but Lin Jinghao hurriedly stopped him behind: "Lin Bo, didn't you say that someone saw my father?" ”
"Yes, Li Qing, you ask Li Qing, it's at her sister's wedding."
As soon as he heard about the wedding, Lin Jinghao froze there with a smile on his face, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"Jing Hao, we all thought that the person Li Xia married should be you." Limber also felt embarrassed and stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"Li Qing, take you Brother Jing Hao around." Li Qing hadn't left yet, she was smiling and standing there very professionally.
"Okay, Brother Jing Hao, you haven't been back for a long time."
"Yes, you've grown into a big girl." Looking at Li Qing, Lin Jinghao seemed to have returned to the time of his first love.
Lin Jinghao and Li Qing's sister Li Xia are among the earliest group of left-behind children in rural areas. At that time, there was no wave of migrant workers going to the city to work, and Li Xia's father was the first to leave home with his father. And the two of them, because of their father's relationship, have become the best playmates. The two are about the same age, only a few months apart, go to school together every day, get out of school together, as they grow up and puberty comes, they are naturally the bad boys at school, and they joke that the two of them are a couple. For this, Lin Jinghao asked them for a fight, and every time he finished fighting, Li Xia silently helped him wipe the scars on his body.
Once, when his father came back and saw that he was having a good time with Li Xia, he jokingly said, "Xiaoxia, you will come to our Lin family to be a daughter-in-law." Li Xia didn't make a sound, but her face turned red. But from then on, Li Xia really regarded herself as Lin Jinghao's 'daughter-in-law', and she had to take care of him in everything. This naturally attracted more gossip from the villagers, and in their eyes, Li Xia must be married to Lin Jinghao as his wife when she grows up. However, with the development of Lin Jinghao's father, everything has changed. Lin Jinghao's mother, stimulated by Xiao San, left within a few years because of depression. Lin Jinghao didn't want to stay in this warm home anymore, he wanted to be a soldier.
The night before he left, Li Xia came to him, and he said to Lin Jinghao: "Jinghao, let's get married." Lin Jinghao was stunned, he and Li Xia were 'married' like the game of 'playing house' when they were children. The next day, Lin Jinghao left, and since then, he has not returned for more than ten years.
"Brother Jing Hao, what are you thinking?" Although Li Qing doesn't look very similar to her sister, she can still find traces of Li Xia from her face.
"Oh, is the house here easy to rent now?"
"It's a good rent, do you remember, the middle school you and my sister studied is now the only focus of the district, and when this community was built, the school site was also moved. Now here, but mothers are rushing to accompany the key school district room. ”
"Yes." Lin Jinghao remembered that when he drove over, he seemed to see a very beautiful school, but if you want to say that it was the middle school he used to study, he really couldn't believe it.
"How? Brother Jing Hao, are you doing well now? Where do you get rich? Li Qing asked him with a smile.
"I'm now changing jobs and working as the head of a small police station."
"The head of the police station! How much money is it a month? Brother Jing Hao, you are a big owner, why don't you open a company directly, and I will work for you. ”
Li Qing's words made Lin Jinghao cry and laugh, too, in today's society, who has so much property at home, and still goes to work, looking at people's faces.
"Do you want to start a company?"
"Yes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, this is what you taught me when you left."
Lin Jinghao remembered that when he was going to be a soldier, he seemed to have said such things to Li Qing.
"Are you married?"
"No, I don't want to be tied up by a man."
"Where's my boyfriend?"
"I've talked about a few, and I've blown it."
"Why?"
"I don't have money, I don't have a building, and I'm not as handsome as you, so I don't like them." Li Qing pursed his lips and looked at Lin Jinghao and smiled mischievously. In Lin Jinghao's eyes, Li Qing is a little sister.
"How is your sister doing?" Speaking of this, Lin Jinghao finally couldn't help but ask.
"She, she married a son-in-law a few years ago, and then I heard that she made a fortune, and now she has emigrated abroad. By the way, the night before she got married, she went to your house to look for you, and then because of this, she almost didn't get married. ”
Li Qing's casual words shocked Lin Jinghao, in fact, when he was in the army, he received a call that Li Xia wanted to get married. However, in the end, he did not have the courage to rush back.
He remembered that night, he sat on a narrow marching bed, holding the last letter Li Xia sent to him. It was a gray envelope made by himself, with a small colorless flower drawn in pencil on it, and it was written 'Lin Jinghao personally opened'. There was only one sentence in the letter: "Lin Jinghao, I will always be your only daughter-in-law, since you don't marry me, then you are not allowed to marry someone else, otherwise I will hate you to death!" ”
Lin Jinghao's tears dripped on the paper, and he knew that he had lost a girl who really loved her since then.
"Really? Then she should be doing well now. Lin Jinghao reluctantly squeezed out a smile. Knowing that the person you once loved is doing well, in fact, is also a comfort.
"By the way, on the day she got married, Uncle Jinrong also came."
"Really! Are you sure it's him? ”
"It's him, and I spoke to him. I said Uncle Jinrong, why haven't you come back for so long? ”
"What did he say?"
"He didn't speak, he just looked at me and smiled." After Li Qing finished speaking, she looked at Lin Jinghao waiting for his instructions.
"Can you drive? Take my brother around and let me see the changes in my hometown. Lin Jinghao suddenly wanted to go around, after all, he hadn't come back for many years, and the changes here were too great.
"We act as intermediaries, what can't were!" Li Qing took the car key from Lin Jinghao's hand.
The rapid development of urban construction has indeed brought earth-shaking changes to the city where Lin Jinghao lives. Many of the broken scenes in Lin Jinghao's memory have disappeared without a trace, this is a brand new city.
It's a pity that while it continues to refresh the city, it is also constantly brushing away those old things that are hard to forget.
After reading the information of those intermediaries, Lin Jinghao decided to entrust Li Qing to help him take care of his 'seventy-two tenants'. The condition is that Li Qing has to open his own intermediary company.
