After getting off the plane, even Ouyang Jun lost interest in talking. Everyone helped Zhuang Rui get a box containing antiques, got into a car that had been waiting at the military airport on the outskirts of Beijing, and hurried towards Beijing.
.
"Hey, who hung up some big lanterns for my house?"
The car first sent Ouyang Jun home, and then turned to Zhuang Rui's courtyard house. However, the alley was too narrow, so the car stopped at the entrance of the alley and dropped Zhuang Rui and Qin Xuanbing down.
Above the original gate, there are now two big red lanterns hanging high, with two big light bulbs inside, illuminating the front door of the mansion with a red light, making it extremely bright.
"Zhuang... Zhuang Rui, this is the courtyard you bought, your current home?"
Qin Xuanbing was born into a wealthy family, and her family was considered wealthy in Hong Kong, but she was still shocked when she saw the grand entrance of the mansion, especially the two stone lions with teeth and claws in front of the door, which were even more powerful.
The antique shapes on the door, as well as the lanterns hanging high above the door, everything looked so familiar. If she hadn't followed Zhuang Rui, Qin Xuanbing would have thought she was at the filming site of some ancient costume TV series.
"Hey, this is our home. Why, Xuan Bing, the house I bought is nice, right?"
Zhuang Rui smiled proudly. The reason why he didn't let the car go through the side door just now was because he wanted Qin Xuanbing to take a look at the front entrance of the house. You know, everyone who comes here for the first time will be shocked. Don't look at his grandfather.
The cousins at home are in high and powerful positions, and when it comes to residence, everyone is envious of Zhuang Rui's house.
Although working within the system will bring many conveniences, you will be much more cautious when it comes to money. With the support of Ouyang Jun, the brothers of the Ouyang family have a lot of money on hand, although the money comes from very different sources.
That's right, but none of them dare to buy a villa.
This is also the national condition. The common people don't care about that. They will label you as a corrupt official first. In fact, with the power of the Ouyang family, there is no need to do those things.
"Yes, I'm looking forward to this courtyard house..."
Qin Xuanbing was very excited when she saw the door of this mansion. The fatigue after flying for several hours was gone, especially after hearing Zhuang Rui's words that this is our home. If it weren't for Zhuang Rui's antiques in her hands,
, I want to hug Zhuang Rui and kiss him.
"Come on, let's go in. I heard from Fourth Brother that grandpa and grandma are here these days, just in time for you to meet them."
Ouyang Jun refused to come to this house with him, and also wanted to avoid the old man. Zhuang Rui walked to the door while talking to Qin Xuanbing, and carefully placed the paper box with the porcelain in his hand on the front steps.
Go up, reach out and ring the doorbell.
"Who are you looking for?"
The door opened faster than Zhuang Rui expected. Almost as soon as he heard the doorbell, the side door of the door was opened from the inside, and a man wearing a military uniform with the rank of lieutenant appeared inside.
"We are looking for..."
Zhuang Rui subconsciously said half of it before he reacted and said in a dumbfounded voice: "I'm not looking for anyone. This is my home. Can you please let me go in first?"
Zhuang Rui picked up the cardboard box on the ground and walked inside. He was almost fooled by the officer just now. He was going back to his own home.
The lieutenant stretched out his hand to stop Zhuang Rui, took out a photo from his pocket, glanced at Zhuang Rui, and asked: "Wait a minute, your name is Zhuang Rui, right?"
"Yes, you have strengthened the security because my grandpa lives here, right?"
Zhuang Rui thought for a while and then he understood. Grandpa used to enjoy the treatment of Zhengguo. Even if he retired, his trip would still attract a lot of attention, and security guards would be an indispensable part.
"Yes, the chief lives here now. All personnel coming in and out must be inspected. Mr. Zhuang, I'm really sorry. The things in your hand must be inspected by me before you can bring them in."
This lieutenant is the person in charge of the security when the old man lives here. Since this is a private residence, they did a lot of work before coming. Since Zhuang Rui was not there when he moved in, they all took Zhuang Rui's photos.
It's a one-handed thing to avoid confusion.
In fact, every time these old chiefs go out, they will cause a lot of trouble to the security bureau, which is responsible for security work. But it's okay here. The people living around it are not very complicated, and the house is big enough for the guards and
With all the health doctors living here, it's more than enough.
"It's okay to check, but I just need to open it for you to take a look..."
When Zhuang Rui saw the man reaching out to take the object in his hand, he quickly took a step back. What a joke, if he accidentally broke these pieces of porcelain, he would cry.
After Zhuang Rui put the carton on the ground and opened it, the lieutenant inspected it very carefully, pinching the scraps of paper and sponge used as fillers one by one with his fingers.
"Forget it, these are all ancient paintings and it's not easy to open them here..."
When Zhuang Rui saw the lieutenant's eyes looking at his armpits, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. These paintings had to be opened carefully on the table. There was no way to open them here.
"Okay, please come in. The middle courtyard is where the chief rests. You can live in the front yard or the backyard."
The lieutenant did not insist on checking the paintings. He took a step back, let the door open, and then informed the guards inside of Zhuang Rui's arrival through the intercom on his collar.
Zhuang Rui was a little depressed, carrying his things and taking Qin Xuanbing through the door. He asked the old man to come and live there. He originally wanted to liven things up and increase his popularity, but he didn't expect that this old man actually occupied the magpie's nest, and he couldn't even choose to live in his own house.
Where is it? Fortunately, the backyard was originally Zhuang Rui's chosen bedroom. If the old man lived there, Zhuang Rui would be even more depressed.
"Zhuang Rui, it won't be like this every time you come here, right?"
Qin Xuanbing followed Zhuang Rui and asked in a low voice, "This place is nice, but if it looks more like a military camp than a home, then it won't be interesting."
"No, grandpa will leave after living here for a while..."
Zhuang Rui felt a little unsure when he said this. If the old man wanted to live in this place for a long time, he couldn't move out, right? Even his mother wouldn't agree.
When passing through the hanging flower door in the front yard, a guard hidden in the darkness raised his hand and saluted Zhuang Rui. Zhuang Rui and Qin Xuanbing were so frightened that they almost threw the porcelain in their hands as weapons until they entered.
In the middle courtyard, my heart was still pounding. It was scary, but scary to death.
When Gu Yun was renovating Zhuang Rui, he installed many street lights in some inconspicuous places. After entering the central courtyard garden, it became brightly lit.
There were quite a few people in the garden. Ouyang Wanzheng was walking with an old man supporting him with one hand, followed by the little girl and the white lion. However, the white lion immediately rushed over after seeing Zhuang Rui. Zhuang Rui quickly put the hand in his hand.
He put the things on the lawn aside, hugged the white lion and made out with him.
"Mom, grandpa and grandma, I brought Xuan Bing to see you."
After comforting the white lion, Zhuang Rui took Qin Xuanbing's hand and walked towards the elderly people.
"Well, okay, good boy, not bad, he didn't embarrass grandpa, little girl is not bad either..."
The old man looked at Qin Xuanbing carefully and nodded. Ouyang Wan also looked at her with a smile. Although he did not speak, the smile on his face relieved Qin Xuanbing's nervousness a lot. Except for Zhuang Rui,
, there are really few people who can breathe heavily in front of the old man.
"This girl is so handsome. How old are you, my child?"
Zhuang Rui's grandmother looked at Qin Xuanbing and was filled with fondness. After letting go of her daughter's hand, she pulled Qin Xuanbing to ask questions.
"Mom, where are Brother Lei and cousin?" Zhuang Rui remembered that before he left, there were many people here.
"Everyone else has to work. They all left yesterday. Your brother-in-law and Xiao Min also went back to Pengcheng. Xiaolei left after dinner today. He originally wanted to see you. It seems that he has something to tell you.
, come on, support grandpa while I go and have a few words with Xuan Bing."
Ouyang Wan knew that her mother wanted to hold her great-grandson, but she was afraid that if she said something too explicit, Qin Xuanbing's thin skin would not be able to handle it, so she quickly handed over her old father to Zhuang Rui, and joined in the conversation between the old lady and Qin Xuanbing.
"I heard that you won over a foreigner and also won back many items that were robbed in China back then, right?"
Ever since Zhuang Rui used spiritual energy to comb the old man's body from time to time, the old man's body has become better and better, and all the functions that had been degraded have been rejuvenated. At this time, he did not let Zhuang Rui support him, but
I used a cane and walked slowly.
"Yes, Grandpa, I'm pretty lucky. I didn't embarrass you, right?" Zhuang Rui may be the only person in this family, apart from the little girl and his mother, who is not afraid of the old man.
"Isn't it embarrassing to go out and gamble? Even military planes are used. You two guys are very courageous. If you guys don't win, let's see if I don't break your legs..."
The old man glared at Zhuang Rui angrily. Someone had already heard that Ouyang Jun had found some connections to fly there on a military plane. This was also the reason why Ouyang Jun did not dare to come over today.
"Hey, grandpa, I'm here to save the country's cultural relics." Zhuang Rui chuckled. If it weren't for the fear that these precious cultural relics would be damaged on the road, Zhuang Rui would rather not take the military plane and he wouldn't have returned yet.
Come on.
Ouyang Gang nodded, paused his cane on the ground, and said, "Well, you can keep the cultural relics you won for yourself, but the 30 million you won will be donated to me. Donate anonymously.
Do you remember?"
"What?"
Zhuang Rui didn't expect to take a military transport plane. Not to mention the pain in his back, the air ticket was also a bit expensive, wasn't it? A total of 30 million!
