Because there was a card game waiting for her, Ma Lan didn't wait for the meal to be finished, so she walked out directly with her bag on her back and immediately took a taxi to Xiyuan Villa, an older villa complex in Jinling.
One of her old friends lives in this villa area.
Twenty years ago, Xiyuan Villa was regarded as a better villa in Jinling, but after all, it has aged a long time, so it has gradually fallen into disrepair.
In the past, Ma Lan thought that Xiyuan Villa was already a standard luxury house, and her family might not be able to live in such a single-family villa in her lifetime.
But things are different now. When she thinks about being able to live in the best Tomson first-class villa in Jinling right away, Ma Lan looks down on this kind of Xiyuan villa.
The old poker friend who lives here is named Chen Shuyi, and she is a poker friend that Ma Lan met several years ago.
Chen Shuyi's family was well off. Her husband made a lot of money in the early years, but then passed away due to an accident, leaving Chen Shuyi a large sum of money.
Chen Shuyi raised her children and after sending her children to develop abroad, she enjoyed playing mahjong every day.
Moreover, this Chen Shuyi is rich but has poor card skills. She always loses more than she wins when playing cards. Ma Lan always wins a little bit every time she plays cards with her.
So Ma Lan regarded Chen Shuyi as her God of Wealth. Whenever Chen Shuyi asked her to play cards, she would definitely come.
Ringing the doorbell of Chen Shuyi's house, the door opened quickly. A woman about the same age as Ma Lan greeted with a warm smile: "Sister Lan is here, come in quickly!"
This middle-aged woman is Chen Shuyi.
Ma Lan hurried forward to greet her, stepped through the door, and said with a smile: "Oh Shuyi, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
When she came to the living room, two other mahjong friends who often played cards with her were already sitting at the mahjong table waiting.
"Sister Lan, you are finally here!"
Seeing her arrival, another middle-aged woman said impatiently: "Sit down, sit down, let's do eight rounds to warm up our hands first!"
When Ma Lan and Chen Shuyi both got on the mahjong table, the game officially began.
While playing mahjong, Ma Lan said: "Shuyi, you have lived in this villa for a long time, right?"
After Chen Shuyi touched a card, she smiled slightly and replied: "I bought this house more than ten years ago, but it was mainly for investment. After my children went abroad, I have been living in a building in the city. The villa is too big
, it’s scary to live alone.”
"Then have you ever thought about redecorating?" Ma Lan became interested and said: "Let me tell you, my daughter happens to run a decoration company, and she also cooperates with our Jinling Dihao Group, and her quality is absolutely guaranteed.
If you want to redecorate it, I can ask her to give you a friendly price, and by then, I will definitely decorate your villa as magnificent as the palace!"
"Sister Lan, thank you for your thoughtfulness." Chen Shuyi smiled slightly, then sighed and said, "However, I have already planned to sell this villa."
"Sell it?" Ma Lan asked puzzledly: "Why do you want to sell it? You are not a person who is short of money. Your husband has left you seven or eight houses alone, and you have invested so much in real estate yourself.
, how great it would be if it were left here to appreciate in value!”
