Chapter 462, Little Bit Engaged
February 1, 1978, the 24th day of the lunar calendar, this day is the southern New Year.
Beijing, Beihe Hutong, courtyard.
The home, which had been quiet for more than two months, was lively again.
Many years of coming back from the south, Xu Qianqian's family, Xiaomei's family, Xu Xiaoqian's sisters and brothers, etc., all came back.
A set of courtyard houses next door to Beihe Hutong, and a set of miscellaneous courtyards in Nanluoguxiang, two large courtyards, are very close to many years of home.
These two sets of courtyards were taken by Xu Qianqian and Xu Wumei respectively.
However, although they also have a bigger house in the capital, now that they are still following the convention, they have all come to join in the fun.
Nearby neighbors stood not far away to watch.
Even the cold weather can't stop the curiosity of the neighbors.
This year's old Xu family, a few days earlier than before, began to be lively.
After all, it's only twenty-four, and there are still five days to go before Chinese New Year's Eve.
After all these years, the neighbors have changed.
Some aunts and uncles are gone, and the children have changed.
The only thing that remains unchanged is the nearby courtyards, which are still the same as they were more than ten years ago.
"Why don't you become a professor? And his student is still a doctor? What is a doctor? ”
The neighbors were not only talking about it, but also amazed.
Tiedan, a young man with pimples, was holding a child and standing in the yard stiffly.
Standing in front of him were the three brothers Xiao Budian and Brother Jing.
As a former partner, everyone's situation is completely different now.
Last year, Tie Dan had already made a lifelong agreement with a girl and had a de facto marriage.
Although there was no wine on the table, let alone a license, the child had already been born.
On the other hand, they don't even have a girlfriend yet, let alone anything else.
At dinner in the evening, Qin Huairu suddenly mentioned this matter and urged marriage for the first time.
Except for Xu Yi and Xu Mengyao, Xiaodoubao and their six sisters and brothers, all of whom were urged to get married.
After all, Xiaodoubao is already nineteen years old, and they will be twenty years old soon.
According to the marriage age of the girl at the age of eighteen, the two sisters Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi have already exceeded, and the white tofu is just up to the standard.
The six children blushed a little, did not dare to discuss the matter, and after having eaten in a hurry, they fled.
The appearance of the iron egg really induced Qin Huairu's idea of urging marriage.
Even if Xiaodoubao and the two sisters used Xu Xiaoqian and their two sisters as shields, it would be useless.
When you reach the age, you should get married, not wait to be a big girl.
For many years, he smiled and watched this scene without speaking.
As a result, he was greeted outside by Xiaodoubao and them.
"Dad, why don't you have a few more brothers and sisters with your mother?"
Hiss!
Hearing the children's words, many years couldn't help but gasp, and immediately gave each of them a violent shudder:
"You're too bold to even make jokes about your parents, right?"
Although I usually get along with them as friends and don't take it too seriously, this joke is more or less uncomfortable for many years.
"Your mother is urging you to get married, and it's not me, so don't pull me."
When the children heard this, they immediately said aggrievedly:
"But Mom's attention has always been here, and Dad, you yourself have said that you will not force us to get married so early, at the age of twenty, life has just begun"
"Then I don't care, that's your mother's business, if you encounter a problem, don't always think about letting me solve it for you."
Many years shook his head and said earnestly:
"Dad also hopes that you can enjoy your life and meet the right partner for you."
After beating the little kids, he left irresponsibly for many years.
Xiaodoubao and they were helpless, feeling that this year's Spring Festival was not so good.
However, on the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, a guest came to the house.
Originally, Professor Duan, who had come to visit for many years, had a heated chat with Qin Huairu.
chatting and chatting, they talked about children, and then Xiao Budian, as one of Qin Huairu's favorite children, was inevitably taken out as an example.
That is, by the way, put it on.
As a result, Professor Duan suddenly said:
"Little is already a professor? Or a professor of mathematics at Princeton University? ”
Her father, Duan Xuefu, is also a professor of mathematics, but at Peking University.
In the last year or two, their Duan family returned to Yanyuan and returned to university.
I haven't moved for a long time, but I'm moving again.
And Duan Wenjun was still very grateful for the help of many years back then, otherwise, her wallet of one hundred and thirty-two yuan would have been lost, which was the money for her father's treatment.
"Yes, his father and I didn't expect that Xiao Bu was not yet an adult, so he would become a professor, and no one would believe him when he said it, and we parents didn't believe it."
Qin Huairu laughed loudly, seemingly very modest, but in fact he was not modest at all.
"I remember that Xiao Budian was born in 60, right? You should be an adult this year, right? ”
"Yes, he and his third sister came out in May, and they just turned eighteen in May this year."
"Yo, this is an adult, so are you talking about a girlfriend?"
Duan Wenjun didn't make a joke about 'did you bring a foreign daughter-in-law back'.
But just mentioning the three words girlfriend made Qin Huairu can't help but complain.
It's a bitter stomach.
I also mentioned that the three eldest daughters are not worrying, they are all adults, and they have never been in love.
Get!
Proper Versailles is not?
So Duan Wenjun took over the conversation and mentioned that she had a few very good young people on hand, and there were also several very good girls.
Why don't you let the young people know for themselves?
For Qin Huairu, this is definitely a great news, how can there be a reason to refuse?
Good guy, the blind date was just arranged.
Xiaodoubao and their six sisters and brothers, on the twenty-ninth day of the New Year, on the day of shopping and shopping for New Year's goods, they were arranged to go on a blind date.
It's just that although everyone is young, there are still many differences in thinking.
Therefore, Xiaodoubao and their three sisters did not succeed, and Jing Ge'er and Hot Wheels did not land.
On the contrary, Xiao Bu ordered this stuffy gourd, but he met with a beautiful girl.
So, Xiao Budian and the girl continued to date, and Xiao Doubao and they went home.
After coming back, Qin Huairu heard this, and couldn't help but order some small bean buns and them:
"Tell me about your three sisters, all of them are adults, why are you still shy? When a man gets married, a woman gets married, is there anything wrong with this blind date? ”
"They are all people who know their roots, I think back then, I was with your father."
Well, it seems that she didn't know each other on a blind date for many years.
Forget it, let's not mention it, it's still important to educate children.
It's just that they have been talking about it for so many days, and they are used to it.
Therefore, the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, and it is not affected at all.
In the evening, Xiao Budian came back, and then was pulled to the living room by everyone and had a three-class trial.
Xiao Budian is very honest, and he explained it clearly.
The girl's name is He Minhong, who was just admitted to Peking University last year and is currently studying in the Department of Chinese.
is the same age as Xiaobudian, and three months younger than Xiaobudian.
So far, the two have a good chat.
After Qin Huairu listened, he immediately clapped his hands and said:
"Then take advantage of the Chinese New Year, get along well, and after the New Year, get engaged directly."
"Besides, if you want me to say, you should also hurry up and deal with your affairs at Princeton University, and you will almost come back to the capital to teach."
"Anyway, your father also said that you have to come back before 80 years, I think it's just right now!"
Her words immediately made Xiao Budian stunned.
Then he immediately retorted, saying that he still needs to study, and he will definitely not be able to come back anytime soon.
Moreover, even if he wants to return to the capital, he is not coming back to teach, he is going to come back to do research.
"Aren't you theoretical? It's no different from being in the capital and being in the bald eagle, right? ”
"Mom, if you don't understand, don't say these layman's words."
Xiao Budian was suddenly helpless:
"You can ask my dad, he founded Apple himself, and he has the most right to speak."
"Sensei said that it is other scientific research, even if it is theoretical research, it must be Bald Eagle or the academic atmosphere in Moscow is better."
"As for the mainland, it's not that it's bad, but I think it's hard to fit in with my current situation."
"I'm still very young, it's time to study, don't overconsume or waste your talent, that's what my dad told me."
was so stunned by Xiao Bu, Qin Huairu suddenly had nothing to say.
For many years, he has been silent, listening quietly and watching the children's speeches.
In fact, the children have grown up and have their own ideas.
Although these thoughts may not be very in line with Qin Huairu's meaning.
But many years can guarantee that they are definitely a red heart.
As long as they are patriotic, then other aspects are not very important.
Of course, for many years, I still agree with Xiao Budian's relationship with He Minhong, a little girl.
also agreed with Qin Huairu's proposal to get engaged after the year that he just said.
Seeing that his father also said so, Xiao Budian had no choice but to nod and agree.
So, basically, the first child in the family has been determined.
One step ahead, the next step is to take the lead.
Qin Huairu continued to urge Xiaodoubao and them beside her, but the effect seemed to be not very good.
The Spring Festival is coming as scheduled, and these days, Xiao Budian and He Minhong often date, and the relationship between the two has also heated up rapidly.
It's just that after the Spring Festival, I'm afraid I will face separation.
Xiao Budian discussed with He Minhong, should he transfer to study at HKU?
When I came to the Chinese department, the Chinese professors at HKU were still very strong.
What's more, whether it is white tofu, Xiaomei, Xiaoqian, they are all written, and it is completely enough to communicate with He Minhong.
Not to mention that there are many years left for this great writer, who will be her future father-in-law.
Transferring to HKU is definitely suitable.
He Minhong was shy and did not respond positively.
It's just that she went home and discussed it with her parents, but her parents agreed directly.
Her father, He Qinsheng, was originally a professor at Renmin University, and during the Spring Festival, he also communicated with the two of them for many years.
For many years, this person, He Qinsheng admires or admires.
It is indeed a very good marriage for his daughter to marry Xiao Budian, a genius, and join the Xu family.
So there's nothing to hesitate about, just just agree.
So, not long after the Spring Festival, I looked for a way out of this matter for many years.
For him, it's just a phone call.
But as a human being, you can't do this.
For many years, I still personally went to Wenjin Street to find the relevant responsible leaders to help coordinate in the center.
As a result, he was scolded by the leader, and only made one request: that is, when he got married, it must be held in the capital, and when the time comes, he will also ask for a cup of happy wine to drink.
This has been promised for many years.
At most, it will be held on Hong Kong Island and in the capital respectively, and it is even very likely that it will be held directly in the capital.
Just take the opportunity to invite Huo Jiandong and his group to come to the capital to take a look, and by the way, let them invest in the capital.
It has been seven or eight years now, the general direction of economic construction has been completely decided, and the peasants below have begun to contract land.
In fact, Xishui Village has been taking action since last year.
Contracting land, working more, and even cultivating wasteland is no longer news in Xishui Village.
solved the matter of He Minhong's transfer of schools, and the family returned to Hong Kong Island many years ago.
He Minhong also left the capital with him, and He Qinsheng and his daughter-in-law Miao Mengjuan also went to Hong Kong Island to have a look.
After getting on the plane, He Qinsheng's family of three was shocked.
Good guys, private luxury jets!
What kind of family does this have to be?
When I was in the capital, the family was very low-key for many years, except for many years often running to Wenjin Street, simply looking at their family living in a courtyard, it really couldn't make people contact such a wealthy businessman who traveled by private jet.
The Rolls-Royce at the doorstep, although it is also quite luxurious, is just a car after all.
Many high-ranking cadres use high-end cars, which are also very luxurious.
After a two-hour flight, the plane landed smoothly on the runway of Hong Kong Island International Airport.
Yes, the new airport on Hong Kong Island was put into operation last year.
In the next few years, Kai Tak Airport will slowly retire from the stage of history.
Real estate companies such as Hongkong Land, Cheung Kong and Wharf Group have carved up that piece of land.
Several real estate groups will work together to rebuild the original Kai Tak Airport into a comprehensive residential community integrating commercial pedestrian streets, residential buildings, food courts, film and television entertainment.
It is a new livable town on Hong Kong Island.
"This is the airport on Hong Kong Island? Why is it so big? It's so clean! ”
He Minhong couldn't believe it at all, and his eyes felt like they weren't enough.
The little dot next to him explained with a smile that there is actually a shopping mall to hang out in, but it is usually only when you board the plane that you will go shopping.
Let's go home first.
Seven Rolls-Royce cars were parked in the waiting area, and Li Jinlian and the others had been waiting for a while.
From the international airport back to Deep Water Bay, of course, it will be farther.
The He family came for the first time, and many years ago they arranged a car reception.
"Hey, isn't your dad with us?"
Seeing that he hadn't gotten in the car for many years, He Minhong couldn't help but whisper curiously in Xiao Budian's ear.
"My dad should have something going on, and he prefers to take a helicopter home, as it always is."
"Helicopters?"
Since getting to know Xiao Budian, He Minhong feels that his three views have been refreshed.
A lot of fresh words, spit out from her mouth since she was a child, making her very much like a local girl in the countryside, with no knowledge.
For many years, I took a helicopter and went to Xintiandi Plaza first.
Apple's press conference will be held this afternoon.
He, as the founder, and the keynote speaker at today's conference, is certainly going to show up.
No. 72 Deep Water Bay, He Minhong's family of three, who sat in a car for more than an hour.
As soon as I got out of the car, I was shocked by the huge manor villa in front of me.
Villa No. 72 is two villas in one, and the area of the garden alone is enough to cover the size of nine acres.
Nine acres of land is very, very large.
Many families in the mainland, a large family, can't cultivate nine acres of rice fields.
At lunch, many years came back in a hurry, and after lunch, he left again.
He Qinsheng and his family didn't know what the situation was, until Xiao Budian turned on the TV in the living room, and they knew that the company that had been in the company for many years today had new products that needed to be released.
"Little one, I remember that your father didn't write it? How is he still the founder of a mobile phone company? ”
Looking at the introduction on TV, He Qinsheng became even more curious.
On the side, Bai Tofu couldn't help but say:
"Uncle He, in fact, my father did write it twelve years ago, but then he opened many companies."
"This Apple company was founded by my dad two years ago, and now it's just two years old."
"According to my dad, it's been two years, and it's time to launch a new product, and this is what my dad is going to launch today."
As she was talking, Bai Tofu picked up the laptop in her hand and showed it.
"Brother and sister, if you want to create in the future, you can use the computer to type, so that it will be more efficient."
"My father, aunt and sister and I usually use computers to type."
Almost again, He Minhong's three views were impacted again.
She hasn't even figured out handwriting creation, but she has already jumped to computer creation?
In the TV screen, the latest Apple laptop has been introduced for many years.
An epoch-making, ultra-thin notebook, a copy in hand, I have it all over the world.
The computer system is not a Microsoft system, but a HarmonyOS system developed by Apple itself.
Operability, responsiveness, etc., are far beyond the Microsoft system.
After many years of such boasting, the entire press conference site was in an uproar.
Infinity TV broadcast the tech feast live.
In addition to the latest product of the laptop, the mobile phone has also been updated.
It's not like squeezing toothpaste, anyway, the volume, weight, battery life, etc., are all compared with the previous mobile phone, there is a huge jump.
Many consumers, as well as potential consumers, are all excited.
Not to mention, the two points of smaller and lighter volume and weight alone made those businessmen excited.
Why?
Because compared with the previous old mobile phone, the weight of the new mobile phone has become 100 grams.
A hundred grams may not seem like much, but in fact, it can be so tiring for those small business owners.
These small business owners make dozens of phone calls almost every day.
Holding up a mobile phone to make a phone call every day, all kinds of occupational diseases have begun to appear.
Cervical spondylosis or something, but it's really terrible.
The launch event ended quickly, and the pre-sale officially opened a week later.
Due to the limited production, the only way to do it is to engage in hunger marketing.
Nest grass!
When Motorola heard the news, everyone was numb.
What the hell, can you do this?
Pre-sale?
"I'll wait to see your jokes!"
Not to mention Motorola, many new mobile phone companies and computer companies established in the past two years are all waiting to see Apple's jokes.
The next day, the four Apple flagship stores on Hong Kong Island were all overcrowded.
Many flagship stores in New York, Tokyo, Mindan, Seoul, and Bay Island are also crowded.
It was such a grand occasion that the newspapers all reported on it.
Motorola and other competitors all shut up and hid in their offices.
It's so sour!
There's no way, Apple's situation can't be hacked, other people's products are too popular.
He Minhong's parents did not stay on Hong Kong Island for long, but only a week later, they returned to Beijing.
As for Ho Min-hung himself, he used his own pocket money to buy a house near the University of Hong Kong.
That house was given to He Minhong to live in.
However, it seems that he was soon invited to the Sassoon Villa by White Tofu.
Because the high-rise residence is still not very comfortable, it must be a villa to live more comfortably.
What's more, the three sisters of the white tofu are all here, they are all young people, and there is nothing unaccustomed to it.
In this way, Ho began his life on Hong Kong Island.
Xiao Budian returned to the Bald Eagle and continued his scientific research path.
Soon it was the day of Apple's pre-sale, and the flagship store was still overcrowded.
The three white tofu sisters, with He Minhong and one or two little guys, went straight to the flagship store.
As an international superstar on Hong Kong Island, Bai Tofu did not dress up at all, and directly showed his true face.
Although many fans are used to seeing it, they are still very pleasantly surprised to greet the white tofu.
learned that she came to the flagship store, not to participate in the event, but to accompany her sisters to go shopping, and fans also watched curiously.
It also led to the already overcrowded flagship store, which became more crowded and lively.
The two brothers, Jing Ge'er and Hot Wheels, didn't come at all, because they had already seen through their sister's tricks.
It's impossible to get them to help carry the bag.
"Based on the current situation, today's pre-sale will definitely be very good, right?"
He Minhong didn't know much about these, but he was shocked to see so many people on the scene.
Although she is already engaged to Xiao Budian, she is already a member of the Xu family.
But she still doesn't know much about the situation of the Xu family.
Just listening to Bai Tofu introduce a few groups, she didn't have any idea.
Apple has given her a lot of impact, because mobile phones and laptops are very popular.
With a population of nearly 10 million, Hong Kong is a megacity.
But the flagship store is so big, but it is so crowded, that is, the capital during the Chinese New Year, it is not so terrifying.
You know, they went out today, but they sat in a nearby subway station and came by subway.
Because the road in the center of the city is too congested to drive at all.
They have long figured out the rules of white tofu, and taking the subway is the most suitable.
"It's definitely not going to be less, I'll find out when I go over and ask."
Xiaodoubao smiled and responded optimistically.
"There will definitely be a lot, Dad is the best!"
Xu Yi said simply, and Xu Mengyao shouted even if he followed.
The latter is already Xu Yi's follower and echo worm.
Especially she admires her father so much, so she still agrees with Xu Yi's words.
He Minhong was immediately happy, and he was also very envious of their sisters in his heart, such an atmosphere was impossible in the He family.
After a short time, Bai Tofu found the person in charge of the flagship store and asked about the pre-sale.
The person in charge told her that the current pre-sale data of mobile phones is 328 units, and the pre-sale data of computers is 220 units.
At present, there are only four flagship stores on Hong Kong Island, and it is only close to noon.
So it's pretty good to have such data.
According to today's all-day data, the sales data of a flagship store may exceed 1,000 mobile phones and 600 computers.
"So much?"
After He Minhong heard this data, he was immediately stunned.
At first glance, this data may seem like very little.
But in reality?
The price of just one mobile phone is 49999 Hong Kong dollars, and the price of a computer is more than doubled.
In the era when the per capita salary is two or three thousand, ordinary people who want to buy such technological products have to save for three or four years without eating or drinking.
But, is that realistic?
"How? I think it's okay, not much. ”
The white tofu sisters shook their heads and said with some disappointment.
Typical belonged to Versailles and it was.
Just counting mobile phones, the daily pre-sale data of a flagship store is 1,000 units, and 4,000 units for four stores.
It means that in about two days, the pre-sale data can exceed 10,000.
If it exceeds 10,000 yuan, the revenue will be nearly 500 million Hong Kong dollars.
500 million Hong Kong dollars, which company has such a market value?
He Minhong wanted to say something, but saw a few young people coming in front of him, and they directly consulted about taking out loans to buy Apple mobile phones.
Hiss!
Loan to buy a mobile phone?
Crazy?
If it is a loan to buy a house, He Minhong feels that it is a bit excessive, let alone a loan to buy a mobile phone?
"Is this really appropriate?"
She whispered to the white tofu and them.
The white tofu sisters rolled their eyes, "This is a very normal market behavior, I don't understand it, but I think it's normal."
After coming to Hong Kong Island, He Minhong felt that his three views had been refreshing.
Whenever she thinks that all this is unbelievable enough, it turns out that she is still too young, and there are even more jaw-dropping things to come.
After returning from shopping at the flagship store, He felt that he should take a break.
Stay in the ivory tower and be a good boy.
The whole Hong Kong Island, because of iPhones and computers, fell into a frenzy.
In a real estate sales store in Central, Abin came to work today with his mobile phone.
As soon as he arrived at the office of the intermediary store, Abin was surrounded by his colleagues.
Because as we all know, Abin is just an ordinary employee who has just joined the company for less than half a year, and the average monthly salary in the past six months is 2,100 yuan.
It's definitely the bottom of the store.
Abin's family is not a wealthy family, anyway, everyone knows that his family still lives in the low-rent housing provided by the Zhengfu.
A family of six is crammed into a small house of just over 50 square meters.
How can such a person afford a 50,000-yuan Apple mobile phone?
Colleagues were envious, and hurriedly asked Abin, what is going on?
In this regard, Abin did not hide it, and directly said that he bought the mobile phone with a loan.
"And how much do you have to pay back every month? Is your salary sufficient? ”
Everyone was shocked, and hurriedly asked.
"I'll pay back 800 yuan a month, what am I afraid of?"
After that, Abin immediately took out his mobile phone, dialed the customers he had contacted before, and began to scan the list.
A day passed, Abin successfully made an appointment with the intended customer and took the customer to see the house.
A few days later, Abin successfully became three orders, one of which was a list for selling villas, worth 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
The company's commission is five points, and he gets 200,000 yuan himself.
Hiss!
One step!
When colleagues saw such a rebellious Abin, they immediately no longer hesitated, and rushed directly to the flagship store in Central to take out a loan to buy a mobile phone.
The example of Abin is very obvious.
A group of colleagues in the store, everyone is very aware of Abin's sales ability.
If you have to say strong, that's unlikely.
Therefore, it is more due to the mobile phone bought with a loan, which fully proves his own strength and makes customers trust him.
Of course, it is not known whether there are other theories such as luck in this.
There is no doubt that Abin himself is hard enough and courageous enough.
Therefore, real estate companies were the first to popularize mobile phones.
Not to mention one per person, at least more than half of them own an Apple mobile phone.
Many young people are even more crazy after learning that they can take out a loan to buy a mobile phone.
There are still many examples like Ah Bin on Hong Kong Island.
Many young people on Hong Kong Island are very hardworking and adventurous.
Especially those who do sales, most of the bold people have taken out loans to buy mobile phones.
Apple has cooperated with banks, and its sales figures are higher and faster.
In less than a month, mobile phone sales soared to 100,000 units, and the increase should not be too fast.
I was also very surprised to learn this data for many years.
Listening to Yi Jianbo's excited report, he smiled slightly for many years, after the Pandora's box of loans was opened, all this was very interesting.
"In addition to the explosion of sales data at our Hong Kong Island headquarters, we were also very surprised by the Tokyo side."
Yi Jianbo said that the sales data of the whole of Tokyo in the past month directly exceeded 670,000 units.
For many years, I was surprised by this data, but I also felt that it was very normal.
Since it has been seven or eight years now, it is normal for Tokyo, which claims to be able to buy the entire bald eagle, to have such sales figures.
It may not be particularly high in terms of per capita GDP in Tokyo, but the total GDP is high due to the large base of people.
In addition, the people of Tokyo have always been very arrogant and have no one in their eyes, so it is normal to have such an illusion.
In addition to the data explosion in Tokyo, Bald Eagle, Europe, Southeast Asia and other places, its sales data are also very terrifying.
Hearing this, many years nodded and said:
"Then can our factory supply speed keep up?"
The sales data of the whole world is more than 2 million mobile phones, and the data of computers is a little worse, but there are also nearly a million units.
Such data is a big surprise for Apple.
But for upstream suppliers, it may be a happy trouble, right?
"Boss, please rest assured, I have personally inspected these factories to ensure that there are no problems and sufficient supply."
Seeing Yi Jianbo with a serious face, he stopped for many years and said:
"Okay, the company is entrusted to you to manage, I am relieved."
"Remember to combine work and rest, and don't make yourself too hard."
"Also, for upstream factories, we must pay close attention to quality, and we must not damage our own reputation, understand?"
For Apple, many years were high hopes.
Although Apple's revenue data has begun to explode, it is still too far from his expected goal.
Nearly 50,000 yuan of a mobile phone, which seems to be a high-end machine, actually turns more consumers away.
However, today's infrastructure such as signal towers is still too bad.
Therefore, even if you want to reduce prices and expand the market for many years, it will be difficult to do so.
So let's take it slowly, moisturizing things silently, better than anything else.
Time flowed like water, March passed in a blink of an eye, and on April 1st, Xiao Budian came back from the bald eagle.
For many years, the family took a luxury yacht directly to Xishui Village.
It's going to be the Qingming Festival soon, and it's time to worship the ancestors.
Gulfstream No. 1 had already gone to Nanyuan Airport in the capital to take Lao Xu and them over to Xishui Village.
As soon as they arrived in Xishui Village, they were shocked by the beautiful Xishui Village in front of them.
Spacious streets, very clean and tidy.
Rows of blue bricks, white walls, gray tiles of southern Hakka buildings, as well as animal carvings, etc., look antique and very good-looking.
The flat square is surrounded by a lot of flowers and verdant grass, which is perfect to look at.
He Minhong, who came to Xishui Village with him, was also quite surprised when he saw everything in front of him.
Because this is the mainland, it is basically impossible to have such a beautiful and modern scene.
But reality appeared in front of her eyes.
In addition to Xishui Village, which is as perfect as a painting, other villages, land, etc. further away have either been turned into concrete roads, factories, construction sites, or vegetable fields where a lot of vegetables are grown.
Anyway, the crops that grow staple foods such as rice are no longer visible.
It is not at all like an agricultural village, but an industrial base.
"Wow, is this beautiful place already?"
The white tofu was surprised, and Qin Huairu's eyes were also bright.
Many years smiled and didn't say anything.
Last year, he squatted here alone, and Qin Huairu and the others didn't come.
All of this is the result of his supervision.
As a designer, he wants to see everything in front of him.
"Wow, these are tulips, right? Why are there so many colors? There are more tulips than the Tuen Mun Farm."
Around Xishui Village and the small park next to it, there are basically all kinds of flowers as far as the eye can see, and the most dazzling of them is the tulips in full bloom.
Purple and red, flowers are in full bloom, and they are full of beauty.
There are also a lot of people in Xishui Village, and after a little glance over the years, you can see that most of these people are people from nearby villagers and factories.
After all, Xishui Village is so beautiful here, and there are such bright flowers, it is perfect to come here for a walk and play.
Lao Xu and they came to Xishui Village one step ahead of many years, so when they arrived many years, their villa area was already very lively.
"This is our house too?"
He Minhong followed Xiao Budian's side, looked at the super modern villa area in front of him, and couldn't help but say.
"Well, this is the house that my father personally supervised the construction of here last year, and it is also the house where he provided for his grandfather."
In fact, it's not just about pension, just like now, there are so many people in Lao Xu's family, and they have a place to live in Xishui Village, which is better than anything else.
You can't go to other people's uncles and other houses to borrow it, right?
I really can't borrow it, after all, the current population size of the old Xu family, more than 30 people, don't be too terrifying.
Xiaomei didn't come back with her, if their family also came back, it is estimated that there will be more people.
I lived in Xishui Village for two days, and they were not idle for many years, and they had something to do every day.
Because there are still quite a few tombs, except for a few close tombs, which have been rebuilt, the others are simply rebuilt.
Moreover, in addition to Xishui Village, there are two other villages surnamed Xu nearby, which have the same roots as Xishui Village.
This means that they have to get together with their two villages and have a big meal.
Anyway, when Lao Xu gets together with these old friends, he can talk very well.
He grew up in Xishui Village and is familiar with every plant and tree here.
Although many people who are the same age as him, or a few years younger than him, are no longer there.
But as long as the other party said the names of their parents, Lao Xu could react immediately.
Xishui Village has changed rapidly, and in just one year, it has been earth-shaking changes.
Coming here again, Lao Xu was reluctant to leave.
On the day of the Qingming Festival, the gongs and drums are noisy, and the sound of firecrackers is deafening.
There is a big man in the village, and the villagers are very happy and celebrate lively, even more lively than the New Year.
Sacrifices to the ancestors, cattle, sheep, pigs and other sacrifices are all placed on the altar.
The aroma of food filled the air, and many little children were watching intently.
"Why is there a lion dance? But it's pretty. ”
He Minhong was very curious about everything in front of him, and Xu Yi and Xu Mengyao were the same.
Although such a show as a lion dance is not uncommon on Hong Kong Island.
But here in Xishui Village, it is still rare.
What's more, this time, Xishui Village is a professional lion dance invited from Baiyun City at a great price.
The performance of this show is very interesting.
Sensei said that the villagers in the vicinity, even the workers in the nearby factories were all attracted to it.
