This New Year, Comrade Xu is still living in seclusion.
When dealing with favors in the company, he left it to his younger brother Xu Tonglu to socialize. When it came to paying New Year greetings to relatives back home, he left it to his younger sister, Ge Yuzhu, and his wife.
He himself went to Hainan for vacation with his two children, his mother and others.
In Tianyun City at this time of year, it is so cold that people shrink away, but here in Hainan, the sun is shining brightly, with blue sea and blue sky. It is not uncommon to see beauties wearing bikinis on the beach.
Here, Tongdao Xu had already bought a seaside villa long ago, just to have a comfortable place to stay when he brings his family over for vacation when the weather is cold.
To put it a bit arrogantly - for him now, money has really become a series of numbers.
A little more or a little less than this number will not affect his quality of life.
Therefore, knowing that domestic housing prices will get higher and higher, he has purchased more than a dozen villas in more than a dozen cities across the country.
The purchase of these dozen villas actually has little to do with investment, but mainly due to education and filial piety.
He wants to take time every year from now on to take his children and mother to travel to various cities across the country, so that they can see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, and also experience the customs and customs of different cities.
He thinks this is a good way to educate children.
Let them have a vague understanding of this country and the representative cities in the country from an early age.
At the same time, this is also a kind of filial piety to the mother.
Just like what he wrote in a leave application note that went viral on the Internet before his rebirth: The motherland is so big, I want to see it.
It was not easy for my mother, Ge Xiaozhu, to raise their three brothers and sisters.
Xu Tongdao wanted to use this method to give her the opportunity to see more places in the world in her life.
After they had finished their domestic tours, he also thought about taking them to travel abroad in the future.
Money is spent when you earn it. If the money you earn cannot bring a better life and happiness to your family, then what is the use of it?
On the seaside, in front of Xu Tongdao's seaside villa, there is a beautiful beach with pure white sand. Xu An'an and Xu Le, two little guys, are already running and laughing on the beach accompanied by bodyguard Sun Gaizi.
, both children are very playful.
Yesterday they were still in Tianyun City, wearing thick down jackets and hats and gloves when going out.
Today they came to such a warm beach, wearing swimsuits and bare feet, running around happily. When they looked back, they saw that they had left a long series of footprints on the beach. That feeling of satisfaction was enough to make them excited.
After running for a while, they found new fun, bending over and sticking their butts out, looking for beautiful shells on the beach.
Not far away.
Tongdao Xu walked with his mother on the beach, watching a group of seagulls flying in the distance and the seawater constantly hitting the beach.
Ge Xiaozhu looked up at the blazing sun in the sky, and said with a smile: "This is just like a dream, like coming to another world. Yesterday we were still in the freezing sky with clouds! Today we are spending the summer here.
Xiaodao! Do you think all the rich people nowadays live like this? They come here for vacation in winter? This is simply a life lived by gods!"
Comrade Xu smiled and sighed, "Absolutely! In the past few years, vacationing in Hainan in winter has become a trend. Rich people who have the conditions really like to come here, even ordinary office workers.
I like to come here to play during the holidays.
Think about it, when they return to their original city after playing here, and show the sunburned skin on their faces and arms in front of their original colleagues, will it last a long time?"
His example was so interesting that Ge Xiaozhu was amused.
She nodded and said with emotion: "Yes! It's such a severe winter. After half the winter, others have turned white, but some people have been sunburned or tanned. They can really brag."
…
As the sun got higher and the temperature got hotter, Tongdao Xu took his two children into the sea and taught them how to swim.
The two children, especially son Xu Le, are still too young, so Tongdao Xu's teaching effect is not very good, but there are a lot of laughter.
When it’s time to have lunch, we mainly eat seafood.
Very fresh seafood. The seafood here is not only fresh, but also cheap.
Comrade Xu showed off his cooking skills for the first time in a long time.
After not cooking much for many years, his skills have deteriorated slightly.
Moreover, he used to be a chef and never cooked much seafood.
But that's not important!
Anyway, the mother and children enjoyed the meal, and Xu Tongdao himself felt relaxed physically and mentally. In the afternoon, he asked someone to rent a yacht and take the mother and children for a ride on the sea.
These are things that the mother and the two children have never experienced before. The mother seems a little uncomfortable, but the two children are very excited.
The two of them grabbed the railing on the edge of the yacht and looked at the endless undulations of the vast and boundless water. They pointed at the sea and shouted.
Occasionally they see petrels or seagulls flying across the sky, which makes them even more excited.
…
And when Tongdao Xu was accompanying his mother and two children for a ride on the sea, they came to the pick-up port of Tianyun City Airport.
Wearing a navy blue suit, a black trench coat, and a pair of sunglasses, Xu Tonglu opened his arms and hugged a man who had just come out of the airport.
After a big hug, the two separated slightly, but still held each other's arms. The man who had just been hugged by Xu Tonglu stood on tiptoes, reached out, and took off the big sunglasses from the face of Xu Tonglu, who was more than 1.9 meters tall.
He joked: "Mr. Xu! You are not a big star. What kind of sunglasses are you wearing when you come to the airport? Are these sunglasses expensive? Are you wearing them deliberately to show off your wealth to me? Ah? Haha..."
This man's age was roughly the same as Xu Tonglu's. He was a little over 1.7 meters tall, not short, but in front of Xu Tonglu, he looked a bit diminutive.
Perhaps, it may remind people of the saying "the essence is concentrated".
"You! We haven't seen you for such a long time, and you hurt me when we meet? Are you interesting, old classmate?"
Xu Tonglu stood side by side with this man, put his arm around his shoulders, and while speaking, he feigned anger and patted this old classmate's back hard.
The old classmate had a smile on his face and glanced sideways at Xu Tonglu, "What's the matter? I've just said a few words to you, is that enough?"
The two walked while talking.
Xu Tonglu also had a smile on his face, "Okay, okay! You can lose whatever you want! You can lose whatever you want, that's alright, right?"
"That's pretty much it..."
…
Not long after, the two got into Xu Tonglu's car.
Xu Tonglu drove the car himself. His old classmate sat in the passenger seat, looking at the environment in the car curiously with a scrutinizing gaze, and said, "Sure enough, there is a rich brother, this little life is nourishing! Xu Tonglu, you
Look at you now driving a BMW, how many years will our group of classmates have to struggle to catch up with your starting point?"
