At eight o'clock in the evening, Li Jianjian hurriedly finished his work meal at the design institute and rushed home impatiently.
Three steps at a time and two steps up to the third floor, as soon as I entered the door, hey, the picture is so eye-catching - Orange is wearing a sky blue JK uniform, she looks like a fresh goddess, her two white and slender legs are particularly eye-catching, she is very happy.
I was picking at the pile of new clothes on the sofa.
The sharp-eyed Li Jianjian recognized those clothes at a glance as being from the Hongxing Erke brand. There were quite a few of them, and the total price was estimated to be several thousand yuan.
I couldn't help but murmur in my heart: The sun is out in the west today? This little guy who is usually stingy as hell is not even willing to borrow five hundred yuan. The reason is quite plausible. He has no shortage of food, drink, and clothing. He wants money to go out.
Give flowers to other men?
Why are you so generous today?
"Oh, I look like a little fairy when I put on these new clothes!" Li Jianjian boasted deliberately and exaggeratedly, making Cheng Zi blush. Although he turned around quickly, the smile at the corner of his mouth was still hidden.
Can't live.
When Li Jianjian saw this, he didn't care. He thought, who is still young and frivolous?
I think back then, I was a little skinnier than an orange. I remember one time when my brother and Le Ye were "competing" outside, and on a whim, I secretly lit a large firecracker and threw it into the underground excrement pipe under their feet.
That scene was just like the planetary engine starting up in the movie "The Wandering Earth". Blue light was everywhere and the whole street exploded. Fortunately, there was no danger in the end, no one was injured, and even the buildings were unscathed. I was even more surprised.
He became an "unsung hero".
Of course, when I got home in the evening, I couldn't avoid Le Ye's meal of "fried pork with bamboo shoots". My butt hurt for several days, and when my father asked about it, he could only slap his face and pretend to be fat, saying that he accidentally fell it.
Now that I think about it, it's both funny and sad.
"Have you had dinner?" Li Jianjian asked casually, trying to change the subject.
Cheng Zi responded dully: "Eat it, your dad made it, it tastes good."
"Oh, that's good." Li Jianjian responded and was about to withdraw. When she saw that Chengzi was fine, she felt relieved.
After all, this girl is Ling Xiao's biological sister and a treasure in his heart. If something goes wrong, Ling Xiao will be heartbroken.
Just as he was about to leave, Chengzi suddenly said: "Hey, let me ask you, what is your relationship with my brother? Have you slept with me?" As soon as these words came out, the air froze.
Li Jianjian almost choked on his own saliva and said helplessly: "I have slept with him since I was a nap."
When Chengzi heard this, he rolled his eyes, put his hands behind his back, stood up straight, and put his legs together, with an "I knew it" expression: "Childish devil!"
Li Jianjian shook his head with a smile and said, "Who is so naive, little girl?"
Chengzi finally couldn't hold it back and said sincerely: "Don't misunderstand my good intentions. I'm thinking about you too."
"Oh, this is really novel!" Li Jianjian sat down leisurely, holding a cup of tea in his hand, half lying on the sofa, with a casual posture, "Then you can tell me how to do it for me?"
Chengzi folded his hands in front of his heart and said with a serious face: "Based on my observation, the thing between you and my brother won't work. So don't sleep. It will be awkward if we meet again after sleeping.
My mother will absolutely, absolutely, not approve of you two being together."
"What else?" Li Jianjian smiled slightly and didn't take it seriously. He stretched out his hand and teased, "How about you ask your mother to write a blank check, I fill in the number, and then disappear in front of her son?"
Chengzi gently patted her hand away and moved to Li Jianjian. The two of them sat leg by leg. The scene was somewhat harmonious. She became serious: "Do you know why my mother didn't let my brother graduate from college?"
Returning to your country?”
Li Jianjian took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Your mother probably wants your brother to stay by her side to take care of her in her old age. It's human nature."
Chengzi shook his head and sighed: "My dad is gone, my brother has graduated, my grandma and the others are too old to take care of my mom, and my uncles are in China. She is alone in Singapore, why don't you follow me?
Brother is back?
Or if my brother comes back, she can come with him.
But she neither replied nor asked my brother to return. There must be a reason for this, have you ever thought about it?"
When Li Jianjian heard this, his eyes gradually became dark and he was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something.
Chengzi continued: "It's because my mother doesn't want my brother to see you, and she doesn't want to see you. She hates you and your father, my brother's father, and all the neighbors she knows here.
people.
It's impossible for my brother to fight against my mother. He couldn't fight before, and he can't fight now. I...of course can't, just because she is our mother."
When Li Jianjian heard this, he lowered his head. He had so many thoughts, as if something heavy was weighing on his heart, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
After a while, Chengzi sighed softly and shook his head like a little adult: "I'm going to take a shower, you should go back early."
Life sometimes really seems like a script that has been set. Some choices may seem to be in front of you, but in fact they have already been pulled by invisible forces.
For her and her brother, the word "mom" carries so many complex emotions that it is so heavy that it is almost breathless.
Sometimes, she couldn't help but secretly think that if she wasn't in this place with strict laws, maybe her mother would be better off.
…
Early the next morning, Luzhou, No. 1 Courtyard.
With the support of her aunt Ling Xiao, Chen Ting slowly approached this high-end community, which although not the most luxurious in Luzhou, was famous for its safety management and high-quality services.
Living here is either rich or expensive, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. The housing prices are even more astonishingly high, approaching the 20,000 mark per square meter, which is already the top level in Luzhou.
Of course, compared with other cities across the country, this price may not be exaggerated. After all, housing prices in some small counties have exceeded 10,000 yuan.
However, Luzhou's rapid development over the years has attracted a large number of high-end talents and technological upstarts, and housing prices have naturally skyrocketed. A few years ago, housing prices in Luzhou began to soar, with the average price almost doubling.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Fortunately, Professor He and other knowledgeable people promptly reported the situation to the above, emphasizing the negative impact of high housing prices on attracting talents.
As a result, Luzhou took decisive action and implemented the most stringent restrictive policies. Among them, the most eye-catching one is the rule that no further transactions are allowed within five years after a house is purchased or sold.
This policy was like a powerful medicine, which quickly curbed the crazy rise in housing prices and gradually brought the housing prices in Luzhou back to rationality.
Under the morning light of sunrise, Aunt Lingxiao and Chen Ting stood at the grand and elegant door of Hefei No. 1 Courtyard, with unconcealable shock and envy in their eyes.
The entrance to this high-end residential area is like a carefully crafted work of art, with every detail revealing extraordinary and nobility.
The two people slowly looked around and saw that the lawn was lush and green. In the flower bed, various flowers were dazzling and colorful, exuding bursts of fragrance, attracting bees and butterflies to dance.
Various market-valued sculptures are scattered throughout the garden landscape. They are either abstract or concrete, and have different shapes, but they all reveal a profound artistic connotation and aesthetic pursuit.
Looking up at the door, I can see that the cornice is designed to be light and elegant, with smooth lines, which complements the style of the entire building and virtually enhances the style and temperament of the entire entrance area.
The most impressive thing is the sense of ceremony. From the moment you step into this area, every step seems to have been carefully designed, and every step makes people feel a noble and warm atmosphere.
This sense of ritual is not only reflected through layout and decoration, but also through an invisible force that resonates and awes people deep in their hearts.
Ling Xiao's aunt stood here, feeling filled with emotion.
She had never imagined that the entrance to a residential area could be so beautiful and shocking.
And now my dearest eldest nephew lives here. If I can get rid of him firmly, will my family also have the opportunity to live here and become a master in the future?
At this moment, she secretly made up her mind to help Chen Ting and strive to live in such a place one day and enjoy the dignity and beauty.
After a while, the two people's eyes met, and the shock in their hearts gradually subsided.
Chen Ting raised her lips and said softly: "Okay, let's go in and see how Ling Xiao's child's house is decorated. He is still young and has not experienced many things. As an aunt, you naturally have to help him.
Check it out.”
When my aunt heard this, a warm smile broke out on her face, and she echoed: "That's true."
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had arrived at the door, but encountered a problem. The door would open automatically as soon as others arrived, so why did they receive a cold reception? Could it be that the door was really out of order?
At this time, a bright-looking manager in a crisp suit walked quickly, followed closely by two security guards holding electric batons, which looked quite formal.
"Hello, what do you two need? I am the deputy property manager here, my surname is Wang."
Chen Ting hurriedly treated him politely and said with a smile: "Hello, Manager Wang, my son lives in this community. I will come over and take a look when I have time today. Could you please open the door for us."
Manager Wang was stunned when he heard this, and then explained: "Our gate here uses facial recognition technology. Maybe your permissions are still under review. Please provide your name and the last four digits of your ID card, and I will help you.
one time."
Chen Ting kept smiling and explained: "I just came back from Singapore, and my son hasn't had time to help me with the procedures yet. Can you please be accommodating first? I will definitely let my son complete the procedures in two days."
Manager Wang's expression became serious: "I'm very sorry, this is a high-level military management area and the security level is extremely high.
No one is allowed to enter without the corresponding authority. Once the regulations are violated, they may face charges of serious crimes endangering national security, and the consequences will be very serious."
The eldest aunt on the side became anxious and her voice rose unconsciously: "Aren't you using strong words? If Ling Xiao is sick, we can't even go in to take care of him. Should we just let him fend for himself in the house?"
Manager Wang quickly reassured: "Don't worry, our community is equipped with the latest 'Metropolitan Security Monitoring System', which can monitor the health status of each owner in real time.
In the event of an emergency such as illness or injury, we will immediately contact top hospitals to ensure that the owner receives the most timely and effective treatment. At the same time, professional nurses will also be arranged to take care of you.
Of course, if the patient really needs family care at that time, we can urgently apply for temporary permission for him."
Aunt Ling Xiao choked on her neck and was about to continue arguing.
"Don't!" Chen Ting, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed her aunt who was about to have a seizure.
The old woman turned her head with a puzzled look on her face, looked at Chen Ting with some confusion, and murmured to herself: This so-called military management area is just a rundown community. She has even stepped through the threshold of the Forbidden City with her wife.
People, is there any place you can't go in?
Although Chen Ting felt helpless in her heart, she still kept a smile on her face towards Manager Wang and said warmly: "Manager Wang, please wait a moment while I call my child to ask about the situation."
"Of course, please do as you please." Manager Wang responded politely, knowing clearly that working here means being friendly and making money. Who knows what kind of relationship network is behind this seemingly ordinary old woman in front of her?
The call was quickly connected, and Chen Ting's voice contained a hint of smile: "Ling Xiao, is it convenient for you to come back now?
Your aunt came over today to help me take a look at the house. On this hot day, I wanted to take her to your house for a drink of water, but the manager here said we wouldn’t be allowed in, so your aunt just waited outside.
, how bad it is.
You see..."
On the other end of the phone, Ling Xiao's voice was calm and direct: "Mom, it's not convenient for me right now. There is a dessert shop at the door, and the environment is comfortable and can relieve the heat.
Moreover, that community does have special regulations, and even Jianjian and I are qualified to move in because of Ziqiu. You and your aunt can rest outside."
Chen Ting's face changed slightly when she heard this, but she quickly adjusted herself and smoothed things over with a smile: "Oh, that's it. Your aunt has specially prepared some good nourishing things and wants to make some soup for you. Haha...
"
There was a hint of embarrassment in the air, and Ling Xiao's silence made the embarrassment even more intense. Chen Ting laughed dryly a few times, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Just drink some water and leave soon..."
When my eldest aunt saw this, she quickly chimed in: "Yes, yes, is Ling Xiao busy?"
Chen Ting sighed, hung up the phone, turned to her aunt and said, "The child is old and busy at work, so we have to understand. But it doesn't matter. Jianjian is relatively free, so I'll call her over right now."
After a while, Li Jianjian arrived in a hurry, with a slightly nervous smile on his face: "Aunt Chen Ting, eldest aunt, hello."
The two of them were silent, and the eldest aunt even turned her head.
Chen Ting said bluntly: "Aunt Ling Xiao came over today to see how his house is decorated. You talk to the doorman and we will go in and take a look. We can also help clean and tidy up."
After that, she said to Li Jianjian earnestly: "Girls, don't be busy working and having fun all the time. You should learn some housework, cooking, and cleaning. These are all the duties of taking care of the family in the future.
Otherwise, Ling Xiao works hard outside and has to serve you when he comes back, how tiring that would be."
Li Jianjian forced a smile and was about to respond when he saw Manager Wang and a team of security guards walking in unison, stood in front of Li Jianjian, and shouted in unison: "Hello, Miss Li Jianjian!"
