Chapter 753: The Intuitive Feeling is Shocking
Chapter 753: The Intuitive Feeling is Shocking
A week later, the Cheng family boarded a Coaster bus and headed to Taihu Lake in Suzhou.
Taihu Lake, once far from the city, has now been designated as the Taihu Scenic Area. After several years of planning and construction, it has undergone a major transformation. Especially in spring, the scenery here is particularly beautiful, with the lake and mountains reflecting each other.
It was the weekend, and tourists flocked to the area. The Cheng family enjoyed the beautiful scenery outside the car window. Although the children in the family didn't seem to care much about the scenery, they were the happiest when they were out playing. They played and frolicked along the way.
At first, the Cheng family was excitedly discussing how to spend the next two days. Just as they were talking amongst themselves, the Coaster turned into a lush, green area along the tree-lined avenue.
This place seems to be a mountain resort. Judging from the imposing gate alone, the Cheng family could guess that this was no ordinary place. However, the view was blocked by the lush vegetation, and they could not see the whole picture. Following the tree-lined path inside the resort, they could vaguely see buildings with white walls and black tiles through the dense trees. These buildings were far apart and looked like a luxurious villa area. However, it seemed to be very quiet here, and there were hardly any people to be seen. Only occasionally could they see two or three security guards patrolling inside with a large dog.
After driving slowly for about seven or eight minutes on the internal roads of the resort, the Coaster stopped in front of a courtyard villa.
Several female waitresses in uniform were already waiting in front of the door.
It was only then that the Cheng family realized that this place was very unusual, completely different from the so-called villas they had seen in movies, television, and in Shanghai.
As soon as the car door opened, several property management staff greeted us with smiles and a slight bow, saying, "Hello! Welcome home!"
This startled the Cheng family. They all turned to look at Huang Erhe, wanting to hear what he would say.
Huang Erhe quickly explained to the Cheng family with a smile, "These are the property management staff. They're the ones who usually maintain and take care of these houses. We don't come here very often, but the houses can't be left unattended!"
Cheng Yishan, the brother-in-law, swallowed hard and pointed to the courtyard house, asking, "Is this your house?"
Huang Erhe replied with a smile, "I only have the right to use it. The ownership belongs to a trust fund under my brother's name. I'll explain this to you slowly later; it can't be explained in just a few words."
Cheng Ling, the sister-in-law, gestured around the area and asked, "Fourth brother-in-law, why don't I see anyone else here?"
Huang Erhe patiently answered his sister-in-law's question: "All the houses in this area belong to the trust fund under my brother's name."
As he spoke, he pointed to a building in the distance where only the roof was visible: "That's my older brother's house!"
Then he pointed to two other places: "Those are my two younger sisters' homes! They're all in this area! But my parents, my maternal grandmother, and my uncle live in the garden. I'll take you there after lunch. So there are no outsiders here, just my family."
The Cheng family was stunned. Although they all knew that Huang Erhe's younger brother was very rich, they still had a somewhat vague concept of how rich he was. They didn't have a very direct understanding of skyscrapers and the Times Commercial Group, but today they truly felt what it meant to be rich. However, they didn't know that an even more incredible thing was waiting for them.
After the group entered the courtyard, they were almost speechless with astonishment!
This isn't a villa at all; it's practically a garden! It's so beautiful!
After entering the house, Huang Erhe assigned rooms to the Cheng family members. He had informed the property management in advance, so all the items in the rooms were arranged and they could move in directly. If they needed anything else, they could just call the property management.
Upon entering the house, the Cheng family discovered that the villa was extremely large, with twelve rooms of various sizes. Even more outrageous, there were more bathrooms than rooms!
Needless to say, the decor was superb. Even though Cheng Jie, who works in the tourism industry, has stayed in many luxurious five-star hotels, compared to this place, those five-star hotels were practically budget hotels.
Cheng Jie and Lü Guanghua stood in the room, looking around. Although the bedroom they were in did not have a complicated decoration, it had a real sense of understated luxury.
Lu Guanghua muttered to himself, "Cheng Jie! So this is where the rich live?"
At this moment, Cheng Jie was too preoccupied to even hear her man talking to her. She stared intently at the room, oblivious to the beautiful scenery outside the window.
The children, however, were not so confused. They seemed to have entered a new paradise, exploring every room in the house, not even missing a corner. Their laughter and playful antics filled the mansion with life.
Not long after, Cheng Jie's son, Lü Mo, rushed into the room.
"Mom and Dad! There's a really, really big basement here! It has video game consoles, a pool table, and even a small movie theater! Oh, and a really, really big swimming pool, though it's empty!"
The couple had long since become numb to it; Lü Mo's words no longer surprised them. In their view, it would be strange if these things didn't exist.
In her room, Cheng Ling kept taking pictures of herself. Although the phone camera's resolution wasn't high at the time, it didn't dampen Cheng Ling's beautiful mood at all!
It's so beautiful and comfortable that she almost doesn't want to go back to Shanghai!
Look at the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains outside, and look at the living environment, it's really amazing.
The family members, young and old, had different feelings, but they all had the same thought: this place could be called paradise, just like the resorts foreigners talk about. It has beautiful scenery and a great environment. So this is what life is like for the rich!
Cheng Jing suppressed her shock and questioned her man in the room.
"Erhe, did your brother really give this to you?"
Huang Erhe gently put his arm around Cheng Jing's shoulder and said with a smile, "To be precise, I only have the right to use it. However, this right to use it is as long as the lifespan of this house. If I am no longer here, and this house is still here, the right to use it can be passed on to Maowa, Miguo, and the others."
At this point, Huang Erhe paused for a moment, and then continued, "Before you married me, our families would come here every year for the Spring Festival. Last year, my mother and the others felt that the Spring Festival here was too quiet and not as lively as in the city, so they didn't come. Therefore, we didn't have a chance to bring you here. This time, we're bringing you here to get acquainted with the place."
"Oh, by the way, if you go out from here and walk west, there's a big park over there. My parents, my grandma, and my uncles always stay there. I'll take you there later, but it's a bit of a walk. I'll call the property management later and have them send some golf carts to take us there."
Cheng Jing then realized that the villa area was actually quite large! She even needed a car to get around the area!
