My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 320 Warming the New House

  This foreign girl is in her twenties.

   The long black hair is slightly curved, the bridge of the nose is high, the eyes are big, and the mouth is small.

   In terms of body and appearance, it is no worse than foreign actresses in film and television.

   In China, she is also an out-and-out beauty.

  Chen Ling hadn't met a foreigner in real life for a long time, and she was stunned when she saw the appearance of this woman.

  I was happy afterwards, thinking that we, Lao Chen, would also have a day when a hero saves beauty.

   This feels quite fresh.

  “…”

   "Comrade Public Security, don't look at the age of this robber, he's really ruthless. He robbed something and even tried to stab someone with a knife!"

"No, he didn't stab anyone. He wanted to run away after grabbing things, so we stopped him together with this young man, mainly because he was holding a knife. It's still this young man who is brave, he went up and kicked this bad guy a big somersault."

   "Yeah, the young man is so brave, the robber was subdued by you even with a knife."

   "That's right, not only is he brave, but he is also very handsome, so it can be seen that he is a good descendant, young man, have you married yet?"

  “…”

   Soon, the police drove over, handcuffed the robber, and conducted a simple routine questioning of the people present.

   But when I asked, the topic got skewed.

  The foreign girl can speak Mandarin, so she can naturally understand what everyone is saying. After answering the police question, she straightened her messy clothes and hair, and also stepped forward to thank Chen Ling and other passers-by.

   She seemed to have a good impression of Chen Ling. When she came to thank him, she stared at his face, and when he went to get those gifts, she even came to help him with things.

   After being politely rejected by Chen Ling, the foreign girl winked at him, "Are you going to visit a friend?"

   "My name is Eva, I'm French. I just came to teach at Nantai University. I can speak Chinese, English and French. I like adventure and classical culture. I hope I can get to know you."

   said, and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Chen Ling.

   "Are you still a teacher?"

  Chen Ling listened to the foreign girl's very formal introduction, so she stopped and shook hands with her briefly: "My name is Chen Ling, I really came here to visit a friend, nice to meet you."

   "Chen Ling? Although I can speak Chinese, I'm not used to your domestic names. I'll call you Chen."

   "Chen, to thank you for your help, can I treat you to dinner?"

   "No, it's a little bit of effort, everyone will help you when you see it."

"OK then."

   Eva shrugged, looking a little disappointed.

   But she is clearly a free and easy woman.

   Otherwise, he wouldn't have recovered his emotions so quickly from being robbed.

   "Rich."

   The two were talking here, when Chen Ling heard someone calling him from behind.

   turned his head and saw that it was Zhao Dahai's daughter-in-law, Xiang Wenxia, ​​carrying large and small bags of ingredients, and looked at him and Eva beside him in surprise.

   "You are..."

   "Oh, it's my sister-in-law. The girl was robbed just now, and the police took the robber away a few minutes later."

  Chen Ling briefly explained the matter.

After hearing this, Xiang Wenxia sighed, "There's no way, every school holiday, there are so many thieves and pickpockets here that the police can't control them. However, it's rare to rob them on the street with knives in broad daylight. "

   said and glanced at Eva, thinking that maybe those people thought that the girl was a foreigner, unfamiliar with her, so she might be bullied.

  Eva is a cold-looking girl, and her bones are a bit cold and delicate, which makes people know at a glance that she is a cold-hearted woman, and she has the effect of keeping strangers away.

   But speaking with people, it is actually quite different, it is a familiar one.

   "Girl, which country are you from? Are you studying at university here?"

   "No, I am French and a foreign teacher hired by Nantai University."

  Tiannan was called Nantai in ancient times. This is the case for universities in many areas. They like to use local ancient names as their university names.

   "Oh, still a French teacher, what's your name?"

   "My name is Eva."

   The place where Eva lives is not far from Zhao Hai's house.

   She and Chen Ling walked for a while, and then went their separate ways.

   Zhao Hai's family is located on the edge of the campus of Nantai University. It belongs to a small villa with a spacious yard, flowers and grass, and two dogs, one large and one small.

  The big one was a gray dog ​​who had followed Zhao Dahai to Chen Ling's house. When he saw Chen Ling, he obviously remembered him. As soon as Xiang Wenxia opened the door, he trotted to him and wagged his tail.

   "That's right, Huahua, you didn't let Heiwa take it for nothing, remember me."

  Chen Ling patted its head and looked at the small dog lying on the kennel. The dog was a typical poodle, a little white with long hair. Many people in the city like to keep them as pets.

   Xiang Wenxia smiled and said, "Huahua is very smart, and I remember it for a long time. The wall is old, and it is ten years old now. It is a dog raised by my mother-in-law, and I usually don't let it out."

   "It's ten years old, that's really starting to look old."

   In general, even if a dog lives for ten years, its teeth, mouth and stomach will gradually degenerate and become weak and sickly. The same is true of people entering old age.

   Then thought of Xiang Wenxia talking about her mother-in-law, and asked, "Are Uncle Zhao and Auntie at home?"

   Xiang Wenxia shook his head: "I'm not here, the National Day is out. I brought the dog here and let us take care of it for a few days."

   Hearing the voices outside the hospital, Zhao Dahai hurried out.

  Since Chen Ling called before, he has been waiting at home, and he also asked Xiang Wenxia to go out to buy vegetables and other things. He was afraid that Chen Ling would not be able to find the house when he came over, so he and his daughter were waiting for Chen Ling to come over at home.

   Now that Chen Ling is finally here, he is so happy that he hastily dragged him into the house.

   While speaking, knowing what happened to Chen Ling on the road, the fat man also opened his mouth in astonishment and looked dumbfounded.

   Then there was a burst of laughter, and the whole body was shaking with laughter.

   "This foreign girl is so enthusiastic about you, don't take your fancy to you. Your kindness is just a hero to save the beauty. It is estimated that you are good-looking, and you have to show your body."

Xiang Wenxia laughed when she heard it, but he was not good at teasing Chen Ling as his sister-in-law, and after laughing, he said to Zhao Hai with a serious face: "What nonsense are you talking about, be careful and know, in the future, you will go to the rich and famous and won't let you. Enter the house."

   Knowing that the two had changed their way to tease him, Chen Ling was not annoyed, and let them say that he would tease their daughter Yaya and change the subject and ask about the bobcats.

   "It's normal that you didn't get on the phone. They may not be at home at this time. I'll call him in the evening and let's have a drink at my place."

   Lynx now lives on the outskirts of the city, where there is a large area, a dog factory is built, and many hunting dogs are raised.

The marriage room is in the city. It is said that it is similar to a half-laced villa like Zhao Dahai. There are quite a lot of rooms. I have been busy decorating it for half a year. .

   "Where's Brother Yuemin, have you called to ask? If you're in the city, we'll call over together."

  Chen Ling shook his head: "No, they returned to the capital on National Day, next time."

   "That's fine. The three of us will drink it today."

  …

night.

   called the lynx over, and the three of them ate and drank a lot, and it was lively until late at night.

   After all, it was the first time Chen Ling came to the city, and they were all very happy that they wanted to do their best as landlords.

During the    period, he was very happy, and Chen Ling also told them that he had bought a house in the city, saying that he bought it with a loan and would be able to repay it after a year.

   They have no doubts about Chen Ling's earning ability.

   Naturally, he will not worry that he will not be able to pay the loan.

  Some are just happy and happy among friends.

   Zhao Dahai also said that last year he asked him to come, but he did not come, and this year he came to buy a house.

   "Can that be the same? You encouraged me to open a restaurant."

  Chen Ling just rolled his eyelids and was too lazy to say more.

   Zhao Dahai laughed: "Then we'll go to warm your new house tomorrow."

   "What new house, didn't you say you bought an old house?"

   "For you, it is also a newly bought house, you should be warm."

   "Yes, it should be warm, why should we have a seat?"

  It is a custom to warm the new house. In the countryside, it is called "stabilizing the pot", and some people call it "entering the fire", which means it is auspicious.

   Looking at the excitement of Zhao Dahai and Lynx, it seems that Chen Ling is buying a house in the city, and they are happier than Chen Ling himself.

   said, "I don't come here often."

   "Why don't you come here often, as long as you have a house in the city, it's a good thing. Besides, doesn't it seem convenient, and it seems that we are getting closer all of a sudden."

   "That's true."

   The three of them drank wine and discussed the matter of warming the new house.

   went to Chen Ling's house early the next morning and helped him clean up.

   "I still need to buy some furniture, right? In your houses, there is no other furniture except beds and chairs, and the sink and faucet in the kitchen also need to be replaced."

  Chen Ling nodded: "Buy, it just so happened that I came here to buy a TV for my family. I can buy it all at once."

   The previous owner was a little nostalgic and moved things very cleanly, especially the study. Except for a few calligraphy paintings for Chen Ling, he left nothing.

   "Then let's go, what are you waiting for, it just so happens that my dad has a friend who is in the furniture business. I'll take you there not only for discounts, but also for door-to-door delivery."

  Zhao Dahai waved his hand with a bluff, and walked out with Chen Ling and Lynx.

   Chen Ling's side is a branch campus of Nantai University, and Zhao Dahai's side is also a branch campus, which is regarded as a foreign language college.

   His house is also a family building.

   Not far from here, there is also a family home of an agency unit, and there are guards outside the door.

   So this place is pretty good, at least it's very strict, and ordinary thieves don't dare to hang around here.

"Speaking of this, it's been a lot better in the past two years. When I was in school, young men brought machetes and steel rods to fight in the streets every day. The two gangs together had five or six hundred people. What is it like, when the ground is full of blood, it is not without."

"Well, what Dahai said is, but like the thieves that Fugui said, pickpockets, human traffickers, burglars, etc., they will not make much trouble, but they have never stopped, and I have seen people. Pour it into a basin with scalding hot water and have practiced this trick of stealing."

   Lynx said this is to practice hand speed in boiling water.

Zhao Dahai nodded: "There must be, but not everyone wants to steal, it's all at the station, when the school is on vacation, stealing some strangers, it's better to steal, acquaintances are not easy to start, Acquaintances know where there are many thieves, are prepared, and are easily beaten if caught."

  Chen Ling listened to what the two of them said, but felt that there was nothing wrong with the current county seat, at least the number of thieves and thieves was not so rampant.

   Chatting, the three of them drove a car and asked Zhao Dahai to take him to a furniture city. It was run by a so-called uncle of Zhao Dahai. The business was not small, and the three floors were full of various types of furniture.

   Knowing that Chen Ling was a friend of Zhao Dahai, the boss asked people to take them around.

  Chen Ling took a look around and felt that Chinese furniture was more pleasing to the eye, so he simply picked a set.

  It’s good to know acquaintances, the price is really cheap, and it was delivered to your door at that time.

  At noon, Chen Ling found a good restaurant and was ready to treat guests.

  I didn't expect Zhao Dahai to drive over and said, "I can't go there. My parents came back and said they haven't seen my big brother yet, so they asked you to go home for dinner."
