Spy War 1929

Chapter 38 Neighbors
Knowing that she was going to move to a new house, Zhang Xiaomei was surprisingly happy, and she didn't feel reluctant to part with the house she lived in now.This made Uncle Zhang, who was a little worried, heaved a sigh of relief.

Zhang Xiaomei is 15 years old, a serious girl in her teenage years.In the general environment of the Republic of China, most girls aged [-] or [-] were already very mature. After all, not many years ago, girls of [-] or [-] might have already become parents.

It's just that although she is mature, she still has a girlish heart, not to mention that the little girl has always been doted on by Uncle Zhang and Aunt Liu.She is much happier than most girls of this era.Growing up so big, although he is not well-clothed and well-fed, he is still well-fed and warmly dressed.The mind is simpler than those of the same age.

Fifteen and sixteen-year-old boys and girls yearn for things like a new home, let alone the villa they are going to move to this time.Rolling herself up in the bedding nest last night, Zhang Xiaomei was so excited that she didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night.In the end, it was the neighbor's cat who screamed horribly in the middle of the night. The little girl was so frightened that she retracted her little head into the quilt, and finally fell asleep because she was so depressed.

The next day, Uncle Zhang got up early in the morning to clean up the pots and pans at home, reluctant to leave anything behind.Big and small packed out a few big bags.In the end, Chen Ledao couldn't stand it any longer, and he insisted on letting them put down those unimportant things, and just bring some valuables, there is nothing missing there.

In the end, Uncle Zhang had a big bag, Aunt Liu had a big bag, and Miss Zhang had a big bag, and only Chen Ledao had two boxes.

Accustomed to the relaxed way of traveling, Chen Ledao really can't bear to go out with big bags now, but fortunately he is inhumane.

Under the painful eyes of Uncle Zhang and Aunt Liu, Chen Ledao called two cars, and the four of them got into the car with their luggage, leaving their original home behind.

This is not moving, isn't this a waste of money!
Sitting in the car, Uncle Zhang felt uncomfortable in every possible way. Mr. Chen is good at everything, but he is too prodigal.There is no meaning of haggling.The old quilts were not brought out, nor were the pots and pans.Fortunately, Mr. Chen didn't let him stay there with his pipe.

"Brother Chen, are we really going to live in the villa on Xiafei Road in the future?" In the car, Zhang Xiaomei's eyes were full of expectation, but her tone was a bit unbelievable.

"Of course," Chen Ledao smiled. He liked Zhang Xiaomei's vivaciousness and innocence, and treated her like his own sister.

In this world, apart from lofty goals, a person must also have a warm family relationship, and there must be something other than his own fame and fortune.Having such a younger sister is a very good thing for him.If there are no relatives, then have a few relatives.

Zhang Xiaomei of Xiafei Road knows that there are shops opened by foreigners.She passed by there before, and she was dazzled by the things sold in those shops, but unfortunately, she never dared to go in once.Since that time, the image of Xia Feilu in her heart is very tall and beautiful.

It's just that I never dreamed that one day I would be able to live in the big villa on Xiafei Road, how could my dream be so beautiful.

Knowing that Chen Ledao bought the house, Zhang Xiaomei quietly raised her head and glanced at Chen Ledao, fearing that she would be found out and then quickly moved away.

"You must study hard. In the future, I will also be like Brother Chen." The seeds of dreams were buried in her heart, and this girl, who was much luckier than most girls of her generation, once again sprouted the desire to study hard.

Zhang Xiaomei is wearing a pair of black leather boots, which Uncle Zhang bought for her before, and they are her best shoes.Because she moved to a new house, Zhang Xiaomei put it on specially.

The crisp sound of "knocking" from the leather boots stepping on the ground was just like her excited heartbeat.I was excited all the way in the car, but when I actually stood in front of the gate of the villa, my heart couldn't help but keep beating.

"Brother Chen, you really bought this place!"

Walking into the villa, Zhang Xiaomei was shocked by the luxury of the interior, and her small mouth couldn't help opening into an O shape.This resplendent appearance made her unable to find out what to praise her for a while.

The "hotel lobby" style luxury villa decorated by Hengsan is very bluffing, at least from the point of view of luxury, it must be quite in place.Chen Ledao planned to find someone to renovate and renovate it, but now that he moved in, he couldn't do it, so let's just live there.

Such thoughts floated in Chen Ledao's mind, and his mentality changed quietly during this period of time.He has never lived in a villa before, but now looking at this villa that belongs to him, he no longer has the anticipation and joy he once had.

Fang Yanyun's villa next door surpassed his villa by more than a notch, and that was the real big villa.Not to mention there is a residence like Feng's mansion.From Chen Ledao's point of view, Feng Mansion can be said to be a small park.

Such a big house, in the future, will belong to something that is born with it, and if it is not born, it will not be there.

The horizon is broadened by touch, and the requirements are naturally higher.It's okay to live in this narrow small villa of my own, but it would be short-sighted to be proud of it.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Liu, and little sister, this will be your own home from now on, don't be shy, just find a room for yourself." Chen Ledao said to the three of them.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Liu had seen villas before, but it was the first time they had seen such a magnificently decorated and dazzling villa.Although in the eyes of many people, this style is only available when you get rich.But I have to say that this kind of decoration has a first-class visual impact on ordinary people.

Uncle Zhang and the others were fine at first, but after seeing the villa, they became cautious again.Although Chen Ledao asked them to regard this as their own home, they both knew that some words should not be taken seriously.

The couple chose a slightly larger room on the first floor. The room on the first floor was originally for servants such as the housekeeper and nanny. Uncle Zhang felt that living in this room would give them a lot of peace of mind.

Chen Ledao didn't say anything, there was only one room on the left and right, it's best to live comfortably by yourself.It's just what Uncle Zhang and Aunt Liu did made him more sure that he did the right thing this time.

Before Chen Ledao could say anything, Aunt Liu had already taken care of all the housework.If you really want to live here for nothing, it is impossible to feel at ease.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Liu are ordinary people, they don't want to take advantage of others, and they don't have any big ambitions. It always feels awkward to live in a villa suddenly.The villa has always been lived in by rich people, how could people like them live there.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Liu, how about this. Even if you are the drivers and babysitters I hired, I will cover your food and lodging, and then give each of you five oceans a month. What do you think?" Seeing the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the two Freedom, Chen Ledao said to the two of them.

"Ah!" The two were taken aback.

"It's too much, it's too much, we don't need so many." Uncle Zhang waved his hands again and again.The main expense of their family is food and lodging. Chen Ledao covered their food and lodging, and gave them ten oceans a month.Then they have a net income of ten oceans, which is unimaginable.

Nowadays, a policeman only earns eight or nine oceans a month, and the driver of a rickshaw may earn an ocean a day, but after paying the rent of the car and other money, what falls into their hands is only Can for this their life only.It's good to be able to eat enough for a month, and I can't even imagine saving something like this.

With food and lodging included, many people would be willing to work for Chen Ledao for nothing. It would be unthinkable to even dream of paying back five oceans a month.

"Uncle Zhang, don't be in a hurry to refuse. Even if you don't need the money, my little sister has to use it. She still needs tuition fees. And don't you want to save some dowry for her?" Chen Ledao said with a smile.He is not a local tyrant with a lot of money, so it is impossible for him to spend money indiscriminately.

He has always believed in one truth, that if you treat others well, others will treat you well!Ten oceans a month is nothing to him at all, but if he can exchange ten oceans for the sincerity of his family, it is definitely not a loss.

"Aunt Liu, the food you cook is no worse than those hotel chefs, and you have to take care of the house. I'm afraid I won't give you five yuan a month. So that's it, if you pay more, I'll lose. If you give less, it will be considered a loss for you, and we don't care about it."

Chen Ledao didn't give them a chance to refuse, so he settled the matter like that.

Uncle Zhang opened his mouth but did not speak, he buried his gratitude to Chen Ledao in his heart.He even felt a little ashamed now that Chen Ledao had treated them like this, and he had charged Chen Ledao ten yuan in rent back then.I really feel ashamed.

"Hey, why is this door open? Did Mr. Chen move in?" Outside the big iron gate of the villa, Fang Yanyun and the maid Xiaohe passed by here. Seeing that the big iron gate was open, Fang Yanyun was puzzled.

"Xiao He, let's go in and take a look." The two walked in.

This villa is indeed not as good as hers, but Fang Yanyun didn't pay attention to this at all. Although her villa is big, it is just like the shops on Joffrey Road. It only stores goods.She is also one of them.

Feng Jingyao introduced her to Du Kang without paying attention to her wishes.What is the difference between her and the goods in those shops, they are just goods for sale in the hands of others.

Feng Jingyao felt that Du Pont's price was right, and sent Fang Yanyun out without hesitation.This made Fang Yanyun's gratitude for Feng Jingyao's existence before disappearing.

Compared with his own empty and unreal villa, Fang Yanyun felt that Chen Ledao's small villa was many times better.

Chen Ledao said that he wanted to change the decoration of the villa, why did he move in so soon?With doubts, Fang Yanyun walked into the villa.

Seeing the glaring and dazzling decoration inside, Fang Yanyun finally understood why Chen Ledao wanted to change the decoration before.

Chen Ledao tidied up his room on the second floor. Fang Yanyun saw no one when he came in, and couldn't look around, so he stood quietly at the gate until Aunt Liu came out and saw her.

Fang Yanyun was dressed in a silk embroidered cheongsam, showing her bumpy and plump figure to the fullest, gorgeous but dignified.Aunt Liu doesn't like those women who dress up coquettishly, they all dress up like vixens, and you can tell that they are not good people at a glance.But at this moment, Fang Yanyun, who was more beautiful than those prostitutes, did not make Aunt Liu feel disgusted at all.

Fang Yanyun's eyes are clean, her smile is gentle but with a hint of charm, she belongs to the kind of woman who makes people feel amazed at the first glance, and immediately develops a crush.

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Chen Ledao's home?" Fang Yanyun asked Aunt Liu softly standing at the door.
