My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 567 Place Mark
Zhang Xiuyan's funeral was held quickly and in a low-key manner. After all, the temperature is high in summer, so the sooner the funeral, the better. If it wasn't for Xu Ma's insistence on seeing her one last time, she might have been cremated at noon that day.

After returning from the funeral home, the family sat together and began to discuss immigration. Now that the old man was gone, my parents didn't want to stay for a day longer.

Da Jie was the first to speak: "Dad, Mom, my aunt suggested that our family go to Sydney. My cousin bought a big manor in Sydney. It just so happens that I can have a caregiver, and it is convenient to communicate."

"Tsk tsk, my cousin still has the ability."

Father Da immediately complimented him.

Years ago, he had heard from his eldest daughter that his aunt's family had opened a new company with an investment of tens of billions of yuan, which almost shocked the couple's jaws.

He really didn't expect that his aunt's family, who had been mediocre for most of his life, would have this kind of fate. He can only lament the impermanence of the world.

"I was also lucky. When I bought it, Kangaroo Country hadn't joined the Asian Mutual Exchange yet, and the housing prices were very low at that time."

Xu Dong said modestly.

Xu Ma waved her hand: "Okay, let's not talk about your cousin, if you praise him again, he will go to heaven, what do you two think about moving to Sydney?"

"It would be better to go to Sydney. Originally, our first choice was Sydney. We only heard that Maoben's summer is not so hot and it is more suitable for the elderly. That's why we decided to go to Maoben."

Daddy quickly replied.

"Is there enough money to buy a house?"

Da Jie rushed to reply: "Enough, enough, the house price in Sydney is only in the early [-], which is so cheap that I can buy a big house with the salary I have saved in the past few years."

Although there is no purchase restriction in the Kangaroo Country, there is a high property tax. The first house is tax-free, and the tax rate goes directly to [-]% for more than one house.

This completely eliminates the possibility of real estate speculation.

Moreover, under the current environment, it is not necessarily a good thing that the house is too big. The air conditioning fee in summer and the heating fee in winter are a lot of expenses for many families.

On the other hand, Sydney has experienced wars, the original old buildings have long since ceased to exist, and the current houses are all rebuilt later.

Most of the units are around [-] square meters.

Large manors or villas similar to those purchased by Xu Dong are rare in the entire Kangaroo Country.

It is different from the stocking policy in the north.

The above has a comprehensive and clear plan for the Kangaroo Continent, and plans to turn it into a second home to share the local population pressure.

The planned population of this piece of land in the future is about 30 million, accounting for about one-third of the country, and the entire construction cycle will last about two to [-] years.

The inland area is the main force of this migration.

"What about Xiaobing? Leave her alone in the capital to go to school?"

Mother Xu continued to ask.

Da Bing is Da Jie's younger sister, a junior in the second half of the year.

The little girl was lucky, the year of the college entrance examination happened to coincide with the expansion of university enrollment, and her academic performance has always been good, so she was admitted to Xiazhong Normal University.

"Auntie, it's fine for me to be alone. I can stay in school during winter and summer vacations. I will apply to work in Sydney after I graduate from university."

Da Bing quickly explained.

"Aren't you going to work in the capital? Just let your sister take you."

Mother Xu persuaded.

"No." Da Bing shook his head, "My parents can't live without people, I go to Sydney, and I can take care of them by the way."

This is something the sisters have discussed long ago.

Father and mother have no sons, and the only ones they can rely on are their two daughters. The two sisters should not be too selfish. No matter what, one of them should stay with their parents.

Dabing is undoubtedly more suitable.

Mama Xu also thought about it: "It's fine to go to Sydney, you really can't do without people around your parents."

"His dad and I are still young, and we don't need anyone to accompany us, as long as the two of them can be successful." Da's mother looked relieved.

"Don't worry, Da Jie is now the director of the company, and she will be fine in the future."

Mother Xu comforted her.

"Dajie is able to be what she is today, all thanks to your auntie's support, and her grandma has vision. To tell you the truth, when Dajie left, her mother and I were a little bit reluctant!"

Father Da showed a grateful expression.

Madam Xu waved her hand: "Da Jie works hard on her own, and I can see that even without me, with her ability, she can still get her current grades."

In fact, everyone present knew that Xu Ma's words were polite, including Da Jie herself.

Otherwise, she is a little girl who just graduated from junior high school, not to mention being a supervisor, and no one will accept her when she enters the factory.

"My aunt loves me the most."

Da Jie immediately leaned over and grabbed Mama Xu's arm.

"It's already the age of marriage, and you're still acting like a baby!"

Mother Xu said angrily.

Xu Dong took the opportunity to ask: "Cousin, when are you planning to move? Do you want me to help?"

"Cousin, we plan to go to Sydney to buy a house first, and it won't be too late to move after Dabing starts school.

As for help, there is no need for it. There is a special immigration office in the city, and you can sign up directly, even saving the boat ticket. "

Kangaroo Country is a bit far from Daxia, and it takes about a month to go back and forth by boat.

Flying is fast, but they are reluctant.

After all, an air ticket costs less than [-] yuan, which can buy one-third of a house.

"I'll leave the address of our manor later. When you choose a house, try to choose the same area."

"That's exactly what I mean."

Father Da nodded.

Mama Xu interjected, "Da Kui, what's the situation with your second sister's family now?"

Father Da has two older sisters. The elder sister married to Yuzhou next door. The whole family immigrated to Siam two years ago. The distance there was too far to make it back.

The second sister married to Xinzhou and is still on the road.

Xinzhou is far in the northwest, not close to the mainland, and the road conditions are not good. It often encounters windy and sandy weather. Even if you are lucky, it will take two or three days to get there.

"Their family will have to wait another two years. The second brother-in-law has a special job and won't be able to leave for a while."

Father Da sighed.

"Two years late, maybe two years late, work is important."

Before the old Xu family made a fortune, this "second brother-in-law" was the most promising, but the other party was a bit unlucky, and just after being transferred to Xinzhou, he encountered a big flare.

As a result, the stay lasted for ten years.

……

After a simple lunch, Xu Dong and his mother left Yiling, Da Jie stayed, and Xu Ma gave her a week-long vacation.

In the evening, the mother and son returned to Yanjing.

Early the next morning, Xu Dong put Mark and Huahua in an iron cage, and then moved them to Daben. During the summer vacation, there was no one at home, so they had to find a temporary shit-shoveling officer for them.

Lele looked reluctant: "Dad, can you take Huahua with you?"

"No, there is no service for consigning pets on passenger ships, so don't ask for trouble."

Xu Dong mercilessly refused.

The main reason is that this move is too conspicuous and has a bad impact.

The three Dabao brothers took the opportunity to slap the dog's head hard, and they couldn't see Mark for more than a month.

Mark stayed in Lao Xu's house for ten years and almost grew up with the triplets, so his feelings were naturally very deep.

"Dad, will Mark feel uncomfortable outside?" Dabao asked concerned.

"Don't worry, as long as there is meat to eat, Mark can live well wherever he goes."

Xu Dong comforted with a smile.

For this foster care, he specially brought two hundred catties of miscellaneous grains and ten boxes of canned meat, enough to feed a cat and a dog for two months.

Of course, these cans were all ten years ago. After all, there are new cans, and the old ones must be replaced. Mark and Huahua have eaten them for a while.

Dabao knelt down and approached Mark's ear, and gently told him, "Mark, you must be obedient outside. If anyone bullies you, bite him."

"Your uncle is not an outsider, how could he bully Mark and Huahua, don't worry."

That's right, Xu Dong is looking for the old master.

First, the relationship between the two families is the closest, and Mark is very familiar with the eldest family, so there will be no problems;
Secondly, apart from the husband and wife, there is no one else in the elders, and they will not disturb others.

"Uncle said before that Mark is very fat, and he also said that it must be delicious if made into dog meat hot pot."

Dabao said sadly.

Xu Dong patted his eldest son's head: "Your uncle was joking with you, do you really take it seriously?"

"It's not like, I saw my uncle swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva with my own eyes."

Dabao looked skeptical.

Xu Dong couldn't help cursing inwardly, the boss is really, he has a petty air everywhere, and their family is not short of meat, is it necessary?
That's all it takes!

If my mother found out, she would definitely punish him.

"Okay, Dad is going to drive, please get out of the way."

"Dad, you drive slowly."

Lele reminded.

"understood."

Xu Dong waved to the children.

After half an hour, the destination arrived.

Xu Bin received the call and waited downstairs in advance.

"Third brother, you are here."

"Well, Mark and Huahua will trouble you."

"You're welcome!" Xu Bin rubbed his hands together, "Did you bring the gaming helmet?"

"Here, it's in the trunk!"

"Third, thank you."

Xu Dong shook his head: "Brother, you are playing, don't quarrel with sister-in-law?"

Before, because the eldest brother was playing games, the eldest sister-in-law Tan Aifang directly made trouble with her mother-in-law, and even he was scolded a lot.

Later, under Xu's mother's mediation, the couple finally reconciled, but the prerequisite is that Xu Bin can only come to play for two days on weekends, and he is not allowed to visit the house at other times.

"Don't worry, I only play for two or three hours a day, and your sister-in-law must have no objection."

Xu Dong nodded: "Don't overdo it."

Afterwards, the two brothers carried the iron cage upstairs.

When the little lion saw Mark, he immediately jumped up:

"Mark, Mark, I'm a little lion."

Mark looked up at the little lion and called out twice symbolically.

The little lion said excitedly: "Mom, mom, look quickly, Mark greeted me."

"Mom saw it."

Xu Jingyi stepped forward and pulled the eldest son away.

Xu Dong and the boss carried the iron cage into the bedroom, which was also Xu Bin's collection room, with several rows of museum shelves and seven or eight large wooden boxes inside.

Over the years, Xu Bin's collection is still very impressive, and he has actually collected a lot of good things.

Tan Aifang came over with a cup of tea.

"Why is Mark so depressed? Is he sick?"

Xu Dong sighed, "It's not sick, it's always like this."

Mark has officially entered old age.

Even if he takes good care of him, he probably won't have a few years to live. As a member of the old Xu family, he has to accept the reality no matter how reluctant he is.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
