Chapter 14 Favorite Sister Brother
Compared with the Chen family, which owns an independent villa in Baohai, Chen Xingcheng, who is not yet married, also has several high-end real estate properties under his name. The Xu family, who spent half their life savings, only bought commercial houses far away from the city.
Located on the edge of the suburbs of Baohai City, the Binhai Industrial District was undoubtedly a very remote location in the early years. However, in recent years, with the continuous expansion and extension of the industrial zone, this industrial zone has become much more lively.
In the early years, it cost five or six hundred thousand yuan to buy commercial housing, but now it has also appreciated to nearly one million. In the matter of buying a house, Xu Haibao also admired the vision of his parents, who dared to borrow money and buy a house in this community that was not optimistic at the time.
Arriving downstairs in the community, looking at Chen Xingcheng, who was in charge of driving, and Xu Haibao, who got out of the car with a foam box, he also said in a timely manner: "Chengzi, thank you! Do you want to go upstairs and sit?"
"Forget it, Brother Bao, the restaurant has had a good business in the past two days, and I will also go over to help. Why don't you wait for the restaurant to close in the evening, and I'll treat you to supper?"
"No, just came home, and went out in the evening, my parents will definitely have an opinion. By the way, can you lend me your car for two days? I'm going to the provincial capital to run some errands, and if I have a car, it's more convenient. ”
"It's okay! When you want a car, feel free to call me. If you don't like my car, I'll find you a more upscale one?"
"Thanks! This Wrangler is already very good to me!"
briefly talked about borrowing a car, and Xu Haibao didn't keep Chen Xingcheng too much. From the time he was discharged from the army to the present, Chen Xingcheng has also eaten a few meals at home. At least Xu Haibao's parents already know that their son has a rich second-generation comrade-in-arms.
Seeing Chen Xingcheng drive away from the community, Xu Haibao also thought about whether to buy a car when he made money. But after thinking about it, he felt that if he was really rich, he would buy a boat first. Cars, it doesn't seem to be very useful.
After all, if there are no accidents, Xu Haibao must spend more time at sea than on land in the future. If he really has money on hand, Xu Haibao may consider buying a yacht first.
In that case, it will be much easier to go to sea or return home in the future. If people know that Xu Haibao doesn't want to buy a car but wants to buy a yacht now, it is estimated that he will feel that he is talking about a dream.
An unemployed vagrant with a bank deposit of about 100,000 should have no problem using the savings to buy a car. But if you want to buy a yacht with this money, isn't it a fool to say what a dream is?
When I returned to the building in the community where I was located, I saw that the community seemed a little quiet during the day. Xu Haibao also knows that compared to staying in the village, it is very common to go to the door and chat. In residential areas, this is relatively rare.
Most of the people who buy houses in this community work or open companies in nearby industrial areas. During the general working hours, most of the people who can be seen in the community are the elderly and children. Usually there is less communication between neighbors.
In addition, there are more floating people in the city, and some people buy houses and only rent them. A lot of the time, the neighbors you knew before you went out are still there. When you come back in the evening, there is a good chance that the neighbor will have changed homes.
For Xu Haibao, if he can choose, it is better to buy this kind of commercial house than to buy an independent villa. Although the price of the latter is too high, Xu Haibao feels that when he has money in the future, he will buy a detached villa if he wants to buy it.
Xu Haibao, who returned to his home, looked at his slightly empty but warm living room, and still felt quite nostalgic. It's just that his parents are working, his sister is studying in a university in a provincial town, and he is often alone at home before he works.
Xu Haibao, who put the foam box he brought into the kitchen and planned to make a fish and shrimp at night, looked at the time and felt that it was still a little early for his parents to come home from work. After thinking about it, he took out his phone and quickly took a photo.
I found a mobile phone number and simply edited a text message and said: "A sumptuous dinner, someone has no mouth, so pitiful!"
After the text message was edited, Xu Haibao was a little mischievous and sent the photos and text messages decisively. At this moment, Xu Qingya, who was still waiting for the holiday in the college, heard a text message ringing on her mobile phone and found that it was her brother's mobile phone number.
After opening it with a little curiosity, I looked at the grouper and lobster in the foam box, as well as the accompanying text message. With a happy and aggrieved face, he called and planned to settle accounts with this old brother.
As the most favored daughter in the family, Xu Qingya has been Xu Haibao's follower since she was a child. Since Xu Haibao went to the army, Xu Qingya often wrote letters to her brother when she was in high school and college.
Now that Xu Haibao has returned from the army, Xu Qingya finally saw her brother on New Year's Day, who she hadn't seen for five years. And Xu Haibao is naturally spoiled by this baby sister, and he will take her to visit the electronic city as soon as he gets home.
spent thousands of oceans to buy a notebook for my little sister. Even after going home, let her parents talk for a long time, but Xu Qingya knows very well that the eldest brother who came back from being a soldier for five years is still the most favored by her.
"Brother, you scoundrel! Can't you keep such a delicious thing and wait for me to come back? I have three days off in hand? I want to eat grouper, I want to eat lobster!"
Listening to the coquettish voice of his little sister on the mobile phone, Xu Haibao also said happily: "Haha! I'm very sorry, don't you know, are delicious things outdated? This grouper, but it's wild, it's rare!"
"I don't care! Otherwise, I'll ignore you when I get back!"
Earlier, from the photo, I saw that there were two groupers. In Xu Qingya's opinion, her brother actually got this fish, and he thought he would share it with his parents. Therefore, the eldest brother should honor his parents, and in her opinion, it should be!
But the other one, you can keep it fresh in the refrigerator and eat it when she comes back from vacation! What's more, this is still a wild big grouper. Even if it's her, except for eating it in her hometown when she was a child, she really hasn't eaten it when she grows up.
Usually, even if I go to dinner with my classmates, the grouper I eat is artificially farmed. Although they are all groupers, farmed and wild, there is no doubt that the latter tastes more delicious!
"You're a snacker! Do you have a holiday the day after tomorrow? Have you bought a ticket?"
"Not yet! what's wrong?"
I just came back from the village, and I plan to go to the provincial capital tomorrow, so I borrowed a car from a friend. Since you have a holiday the day after tomorrow, then I will stay in the provincial capital for one more night, and I will take you with me at that time. Happy, right?"
"Really, did you really come to the provincial capital?"
"Don't believe me, forget it, when I didn't say anything just now!"
"No, forget it, if you don't come tomorrow, I won't be home!"
When Xu Qingya was coquettish with Xu Haibao, many students who knew Xu Qingya also felt a little unbelievable. After all, although Xu Qingya is already a sophomore, she is also a well-known beauty at Jiangnan University.
Usually, many seniors want to kiss Fangze, but they are ruthlessly rejected. Now seeing Xu Qingya ignoring the eyes of others and being coquettish and cute with the people in her mobile phone, I really feel a heartbreak, but I envy the person who was coquettish.
chatted with his sister for half an hour, and Xu Haibao also felt that this baby sister couldn't be spoiled too much. In his previous life, because of his work, he rarely had the opportunity to go home all year round, and his parents were taken care of by his younger sister.
Even in order to fulfill the responsibility of being a child, Xu Qingya, who had the opportunity to stay in the provincial capital after graduation, finally gave up a high-paying job in the provincial capital and deliberately went back to the local area to find a job to take care of his parents for his son.
It wasn't until two years before Xu Haibao's accident that Xu Qingya found a lifelong partner. Although he rushed back to attend the wedding, he didn't stay for a few days, and Xu Haibao was called away by a phone call from the company.
When engaged in wreck salvage work, many times once on the ship, the company will prohibit employees from contacting the outside world. After all, when it comes to the salvage of a shipwreck, once the news leaks, it is likely to attract other competitors to scramble.
And this scramble often means that something very bloody will happen. In many cases, salvage ships are on the high seas or in specific sea areas, and there is often nowhere to escape if something happens, and there is not even a person to collect the body.
In his previous life, he worked hard in this industry for many years, and Xu Haibao also experienced a crisis. Fortunately, the strength of the companies he has worked in is good, and he is not just a dive. After all, his fighting and firearms skills are also very good.
Xu Haibao saw that there was not much time left for his parents to get off work, and began to go into the kitchen to prepare tonight's meal. Xu Qingya, who was far away on the university campus, was so happy that her best friend also looked curious: "Qingya, I really can't imagine that you will also be coquettish?"
"Am I spoiled?"
"If you look at the heartbroken expressions on the faces of those boys, you will know if there is one! I said how can you keep the empty boudoir alone, it turns out that you have long been famous and have a master! Tell me honestly, when did it start?"
"What! My brother just called, what are you thinking?"
Even for many people, entering college can enjoy the taste of love. But in Xu Qingya's opinion, she doesn't think there is any point in falling in love in college. Falling in love at school, breaking up after graduation, she doesn't want this kind of love!
In her opinion, the eldest brother who had good grades that year, but failed the college entrance examination, could have tutored for a year. But the conditions of his own family are there, and he has to provide for two college students, and the economic pressure can be imagined.
In this case, Xu Haibao finally gave up the opportunity to tutor for a year. The opportunity to go to college was given to her with better grades. Although her parents didn't tell Xu Haibao about this, how could Xu Qingya not know?
