"I never expected that when Zhen Yan left, the remaining few suddenly fell into an awkward silence."
Zhen Yu only had ti to glance around quickly, and the hostess had already stood up swiftly, trying to sneak away!
At that very mont, a thought suddenly popped up in Zhen Yuxin’s mind—this can’t go on like this!
So, she decided to quickly strike up a conversation.
She was also curious about where exactly in the Capital the house owner’s family bought their villa...
Thus, Zhen Yu cleared her throat and imdiately spoke up.
"Cough! Uncle, I heard your family bought a villa?! Since we don’t have anything else to do right now anyway, why don’t you tell us a little about it?!"
"Ah, yes! We did finalize on one!" The hoowner uncle had also seen his wife trying to slip away, but as the head of the family, he had to continue entertaining the guests here! So having a topic to talk about seed good to him! He continued, "We settled on a three-story townhouse! We can move in after the Spring Festival."
"Oh..." Zhen Yu responded, seemingly understanding yet not.
Although she was a bit perplexed, since when did villas have three floors!
Aren’t they supposed to be like those seen on TV, uniformly two-story buildings?!
But she also knew! Asking such questions directly to their face is certainly not nice!
So, she temporarily shelved her doubts and planned to ask the estate agent directly when she left.
"Um, I heard that villas are built in scenic locations, near mountains and lakes! Is that true?"
"Of course it’s true! The one I bought, Purple Jade Villa, is right next to a huge lake spanning several ten thousand square ters..."
—
"Purple Jade Villa?"
Zhen Yuxin suddenly felt a bit puzzled, why does that na sound familiar...
"Yes! It’s near Yayun Village!"
"Wow? Isn’t that in the city? I thought all villas were in the suburbs!"
"Ha ha! Most villas are indeed built in the suburban areas of a city! But there are always exceptions!"
"I see..." Zhen Yu’s expression revealed so understanding!
So, it looks like there are indeed villas in the city center of the Capital! Now she’s wondering... how should she choose?
"Uncle! May I boldly ask, when you were buying a villa, why did you choose one in the city rather than in the suburbs?"
"Ha! Why not?" Perhaps pleased by Zhen Yu’s sincere attitude, the hoowner even laughed a couple of tis!
Then he patiently explained, "Let tell you this! Even though the term ’villa’ sounds prestigious, at the end of the day, isn’t it still for living?"
"And you see, even though the term ’villa’ was imported from abroad! But in the 5000 years of history in our country, this type of architecture actually appeared early on! The Emperor’s Palace, the General and Minister’s residences, and even the rich rchants and landlords’ mansions and estates. Although the nas vary, the unified standard is—everyone has their own private compound!"
"As for why I chose a villa in the city, it’s actually because of one sentence! Living here is convenient! I haven’t retired yet! And our ancestors had a saying, it goes ’Finding peace amid the chaos’..."
——
"Right! I see you guys are pretty young, how co you ca to buy a house by yourselves? Where are your parents?!" Perhaps because the conversation had ward up, or maybe it was just a habit of older people! As the hoowner was speaking, he suddenly asked such a question!
Zhen Yu was slightly startled! Because they were coming to see the house today, she and Zhen Yan were worried that the hoowner’s family might have so taboos, so they specifically took off their filial mourning attire and temporarily kept it in their pockets.
As she was turning her eyes, thinking about how to answer, Han Mingyue suddenly spoke up for her, uttering his first words since they entered. "Our parents trust us quite a bit, so they intentionally want us to experience this, letting us independently handle the matter of buying the house!"
"Ah! Not bad! Your parents really know how to educate children! When eaglets grow up, eagles should let them soar high! How can they keep their children under their wings all day! When would they learn to grow up then! They should,"
Knock knock knock—
Just as the hoowner was about to launch into a longer lecture on education, a knock at the door suddenly sounded.
No need to ask, Zhen Yu knew it was her brother returning.
So, taking advantage of the mont the hoowner went to open the door, Zhen Yu quickly exchanged a glance with Han Mingyue and subtly patted her chest with relief! She thought to herself: "Phew... luckily! Zhen Yan’s timing couldn’t be more perfect!"
"Psst!" Han Mingyue was just amused by her subtle gesture and chuckled quietly, but quickly straightened his facial expression when he saw the hoowner turn back around.
At that mont, Zhen Yan was following the hoowner towards the sofa, saying, "Sorry to keep you waiting! There were quite a few people in line..."
——
While Zhen Yan and the hoowner, along with the young realtor, were going through the house buying procedures on the other side of the sofa, Zhen Yu sat on this side, quietly pondering. She tried hard to recall from the news in her previous life where those multimillion-dollar mansions in the Capital were!
When their matter was finally settled and Zhen Yan signaled her and Han Mingyue to get up to say goodbye, Zhen Yu had already made so connections in her mind! She also took this opportunity to realize why the words ’Purple Jade Villa’ sounded so familiar to her!
Isn’t this the well-known celebrity Zhang Guoli’s mansion that was exposed in the future!
Luckily, Zhen Yu wasn’t starstruck, otherwise, she might really have headed straight for the villas at Purple Jade Villa!
But now she had already made up her mind, still wanting to see that villa near the airport that the young realtor ntioned.
Because in her past life mories, that area was later known as the Central Villa District!
Central! Central! Just from hearing these two words, one could tell it’s definitely a great place!
Not to ntion Zhen Yu suddenly rembered an article she had seen in her past life titled ’Top Ten Billion-Dollar Mansions in the Capital’!
The article ntioned the ten most expensive, grand villas in the Capital, several of which were located in the Central Villa District!
Of course! Don’t ask her "why as a poor person in her past life she would read such articles!"
Her answer would be—"Just idle!"
As Zhou Xingxing once said! If a person doesn’t have dreams, how are they any different from salted fish?
Even though she knew she could never afford it, she could still enjoy looking at pictures!
After looking at them, who knows, maybe she could have a beautiful dream at night! So things might just be realized in dreams...
