On Saturday night, Mr. Ke took his family outside his small yard.
It was already 7 o'clock in the evening.
Lights have been turned on everywhere.
This small courtyard is already very different from before.
First of all, the door turned into the kind of door door outside the palace, with a vermilion background and densely nailed copper door doors. Under the light of the two lights on the left and right, it looked very noble.
You can see a video call device at the door.
Mr. Ke's youngest son, Ke Shu, stepped forward and rang the doorbell.
After the connection was connected inside, the door opened automatically and slowly.
"Dad, Mom, there is a threshold here, please be careful!" The eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law quickly supported the old couple.
Granny Ke laughed as she walked, "If this had happened more than 100 years ago, we would have entered the mansion of a noble!"
"No!" Mr. Ke said proudly, "Many of the decorations here were given by me. You will know later. The four little girls here are very particular about people!"
While they were talking, they saw a translucent house with white frosted glass standing in the yard.
You could see a few people busy inside, and there was a smell of food coming from inside, but you couldn't tell what it was like inside.
"What does this mean?" The second son was surprised.
"Hey, don't you know this?" Mr. Ke pointed at the glass house and said, "This is a kitchen made by others, so that you can know that it is freshly made. But it is said that the chef has his own habits and does not want others to see People who see him just want everyone to taste his craftsmanship, so you can’t see it.”
"That's it!"
The eldest grandson pursed his lips, "It's so mysterious that it won't taste good later, so I have to go and laugh at them!"
"No." Mr. Ke had already walked into the living room at this time, "Look at their style! Here... look at these furnishings, look at the Eight Immortals table in the dining room next to it, look at these calligraphy and paintings... they can be so finely made. My master, can you be careless about hiring a chef? Are you just waiting for delicious food today?"
While several people were talking here, a very beautiful girl came in carrying a small iron pot.
"Hello, Grandpa Ke~~ Good evening, everyone!" She said with a smile, "There are still ten minutes until the food is served. Please sit down for a while and have a cup of tea!"
As she spoke, she poured out the tea from the small iron pot.
Everyone immediately smelled a pleasant tea fragrance, which was not strong but very distant.
"Hey, Girl Long, what kind of tea is this? Why didn't you give me this last time I came here?" Mr. Ke is a person who knows tea. When he saw this, he immediately pretended to be angry and asked.
"This is a tea we just found. Why don't we let you taste it?" The girl chuckled and said, "If you think it's good, take a pack back today!"
"Okay, then I won't be polite to you anymore." Mr. Ke picked up the small teacup, blew it, and took a sip.
His mouth moved, and he drank it all in one gulp.
"Hmm... Not bad, not bad... The aroma of tea can be felt in the throat... When it reaches the stomach, it feels warm instantly..." Mr. Ke shook his head and said, "This tea of yours is not cheap, is it?"
"You can't buy it outside. We asked a master to make it specially. We have been busy making it since before the Spring Festival." The girl added more tea to him and immediately put the small iron pot on the table. "You guys rest first, I'll go see if the food is ready..."
"Go!"
Mr. Ke was drinking tea, but he didn't care about that much.
The eldest grandson who was still shouting just now was staring at the girl's slender back without being distracted at all.
In fact, when this girl came in just now, he had already stared at her.
It's just that the girl just saw him passing by and didn't notice him.
"Hey, do you like this girl?" Uncle Ke Shu poked him and asked.
"No way!" the eldest grandson quickly denied with a blush.
"Uncle is not throwing cold water on you. If you like her, I'm afraid there will be no consequences." Ke Shu said with a smile.
"Why?" Now the eldest grandson was unconvinced again.
Ke Shu did not answer directly, but asked his father, "Dad, the four little girls you mentioned should have rich families, right?"
"It must be ten times richer than our family." Mr. Ke said without thinking.
"Oh? Where did you see it?" the second daughter-in-law asked curiously, "I just saw it. This girl is very beautiful, but there is nothing wrong with her?"
"This is something people have to do, so it is very simple." Mr. Ke said, "When they came to rent a house from me that day, everyone was wearing millions of jade ornaments. If you were not that family, who would dare to let me rent a house? Does your child wear such jewelry when going out?"
"Wow, you are so rich!"
Everyone was amazed.
"Our family also has this kind of money!" The eldest grandson expressed his disagreement angrily.
"You silly kid!" His mother laughed, "Having this money and being able to use it to buy jewelry are two different concepts... Nowadays, many of us have houses as assets, but we have nothing to use them for. money!
If a family can spend millions to buy jade jewelry for their daughter, they must at least have hundreds of millions of assets to support it! "
She's absolutely right.
Take Huajing as an example. Anyone who owns a house in Huajing can basically be regarded as a millionaire, and there are also many multi-millionaires.
But if you ask them to spend hundreds of thousands, it will be very difficult for them.
Fixed assets and disposable assets are completely different things!
"Then maybe they are just pretending to be fat?" the eldest grandson retorted.
"Impossible." Mr. Ke waved his hand, "You have never been in contact with them. I have been pestered by them to rent a house several times. These girls are all polite and well-educated. They are not from the families of the nouveau riche. Yes, it took at least two or three generations of accumulation to have today's temperament... Oh, by the way, they are still students who came to Huajing to study, and they seem to be from Lin'an."
"Let me tell you, it smells like Wu Nong's soft words." The second daughter-in-law nodded and said, "Such a girl looks like she came from the Jiangnan water town. She is so beautiful!"
As they said this, the eldest grandson's heart did not sink, but he became more and more interested.
Ke Shu looked at him without saying anything.
There are some things that he has to experience himself before he can taste the taste of failure.
