Chapter 620: Moving Into the Grand Manor

December 24, Christmas Eve. Google search reading

After more than eight hours of flight, at four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Dong and his party finally arrived in Sydney safely. God bless, everything went well.

December in Sydney is midsummer and is the hottest time of the year. However, due to the eruption of the Heshishan volcano, the outdoor temperature at this time is only 27 or 8 degrees Celsius, which is quite comfortable.

As soon as he got off the plane, Xu Dong took off his and his children's down jackets on the spot, and his fellow passengers did the same thing.

"It's actually summer here, it's incredible." Lele was stunned.

Xiaobao took the opportunity to joke: "Second sister, your geography class was taught by your physical education teacher, right? You don't even know such a simple principle?"

"Humph, who said I didn't know? I just didn't react for a while."

Lele immediately defended.

"Hey, why don't you tell me about it?"

"The seasons in the southern hemisphere and the northern hemisphere are opposite. Is this common sense?"

"Everyone knows it's the other way around, but what's the specific reason?"

Xiaobao chased after him.

Lele suddenly became angry: "Smelly Xiaobao, you little brat, why are you asking so many questions? Do you need to know how pigs are raised to eat pork?"

Xu Dong shook his head secretly. His youngest daughter's academic performance seemed to be in dire straits. She couldn't even answer such a simple question. No wonder her academic performance was in such a mess.

"Haha, the second sister is a big idiot."

Erbao laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward.

Xu Dong gently patted the back of his second son's head and said angrily: "Why are you laughing? Have you ever said that about your sister? Does it make your academic performance so good?"

"Dad, you are partial."

Erbao felt guilty.

"Stop arguing and put your clothes away quickly. We'll go home right away."

Xu Dong ordered.

Afterwards, a group of four people arrived at the airport pick-up port and soon saw Xu’s father, who specially brought a driver to pick him up.

"Grandpa..." The three siblings swooped over.

"Haha!" Father Xu laughed heartily, "Grandpa is here to take you home. Come on, follow Grandpa to the parking lot."

Ten minutes later, the two cars drove out of the airport.

Xu Dong asked with concern: "Dad, are you okay at home?"

"It's very good. When we arrived, the nannies had already cleaned the house in advance, and the house appliances and furniture were complete. Even the quilts and quilts were newly bought. You can move in with just your bags."

Father Xu replied with a smile.

"Grandpa, is our manor big?"

Lele couldn't help but look forward to Tao.

"Big, the new home is not only big, but also has a very big yard. It takes an hour to walk around the fence!"

As a native of Daxia, there is no one who dislikes the courtyard, and Father Xu is certainly no exception. I originally thought that the courtyard in Hancheng was already very good, but compared with this place, it pales into insignificance.

"Really? Is there a tennis court in the yard?"

Lele asked quickly.

Tennis is her favorite sport, but unfortunately her courtyard is too small, so she has to go to a special gymnasium, which is very inconvenient.

Dad Xu said with a smile: "Not only are there tennis courts, but there are also basketball courts and badminton courts, as well as a big swimming pool. You can play whatever you want."

"Grandpa, is there a football field?"

Erbao asked immediately.

Xu Dong answered helpfully: "Of course there is, but there is no lawn on the football field and the area is not large. You can only play beach football."

Although their family does not lack money to maintain a lawn.

But the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development here couldn't get approval at all. After all, raising lawns is a waste of water. Except for some public botanical gardens in the city, it is strictly prohibited elsewhere.

"Beach football is fine, as long as you can play football." Erbao looked satisfied.

…

Under the urging of the three siblings.

An hour and a half later, the manor finally arrived.

"Baba..."

When the doorman saw that the owner was back, he quickly opened the electric sliding door. Father Xu took the opportunity to introduce the doorman Lao Song to his younger son.

Xu Dong took the initiative to get out of the car and shook hands with the other party.

Xu Ma and others heard the car horn and couldn't wait to come to the gate.

"Grandma, mom, we're here."

"Come here quickly and let grandma take a look."

Xu's mother pulled the three siblings over and looked at them carefully. Although they had not seen each other for three days, she missed them so much that she wished she could keep the children close to her at all times.

Yang Lina asked with concern: "Are you hungry?"

Lele touched her belly:

"I've been hungry for a long time, and I can't even get enough snacks."

"I'm hungry too." Xiaobao agreed.

"Stop standing around. Dinner is already ready. I'm waiting for you to come back. Go wash your face and we'll start dinner right away." Xu Ma said with a big wave of her hand.

"Milk, I need to take a shower first. It's too hot here. I just sweated all over."

Lele wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Can't you wash it after eating?"

"No, I already smell like sweat."

Yang Lina reached out and took the suitcase from her daughter's hand, and said helplessly: "You just love to be clean, let's go, I'll take you to the bathroom."

"Mom, isn't there a swimming pool at home? I'll just go and swim twice."

Lele looked eager to try.

Keke quickly advised: "Little sister, the swimming pool uses seawater. After washing, you have to go back to the bathroom to rinse again. It's too troublesome. If you want to swim, wait until tomorrow!"

Here needs a brief introduction. As mentioned earlier, the reconstruction work of Kangaroo Country was planned in advance and fully considered the current special environment.

Take water supply as an example. There are two water supply systems in Sydney. One supplies fresh water and the other supplies seawater. The two are independent of each other and complement each other.

It is precisely because of this that infrastructure such as public baths, public laundries and public toilets are far less popular than in China.

In comparison, local living habits are actually closer to those before the great drought.

"Okay!" Keke was a little disappointed.

Half an hour later, dinner began.

A full family, plus Xu Bin and his wife, sat around the dining table.

The servants quickly set the table.

The dinner was particularly sumptuous.

Sydney is close to the sea, and there is no shortage of fresh seafood. With the chef's excellent cooking skills, the family ate happily.

Xu Bin took the opportunity to ask about the house.

Xu Dong raised his glass and clinked it with the eldest brother, then explained: "Tomorrow is Christmas. I plan to hold a small party at home and invite some good friends to come for dinner. As for buying a house, how about the day after tomorrow?"

"No problem." Xu Bin immediately agreed, "I say, third brother, your manor is really good. Can you help me find one? It doesn't need to be so big, just with a small yard."

"I'm afraid it's difficult." Xu Dong shook his head.

"Is there no way at all?"

Xu Bin asked unwillingly.

"It's not that I don't want to help, but I really can't find it. Kangaroo Country is not like China. All the cities here are rebuilt. When they were designed, there was no place for villa areas.

To be honest, my manor was preserved by chance. If the manor was located in the city, it would have been expropriated long ago."
