Chapter 186 Concubine Yuan's New Identity
With Concubine Yuan, the three returned to the modern era. Concubine Yuan sat in a luxury car, looking at the outside world, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, everything she saw was new and interesting.
The first question asked was who was the emperor now? Zhao Xiaofei said, "There's no emperor now! The common people are the masters, and everyone is equal! Of course, there's inequality in wealth! There are rich and poor, but at least everyone has a place to live. Basically, they won't starve to death!"
"Is the current imperial court so powerful? It can actually feed 1.4 billion people and keep them from starving to death!" Concubine Yuan was very surprised.
"Because one acre of land now produces more than ten times what it used to, and we also import grain from abroad. So we can feed a lot of people!" said Zhao Xiaokun.
At this time, Concubine Yuan suddenly covered her face and said, "Why is that girl wearing so little? Is her family very poor?" Concubine Yuan pointed to a girl on the street and said.
Zhao Xiaofei noticed that the weather wasn't too hot, yet someone was wearing a halter top. And it was a low-cut one, so he smiled and said, "She's not poor! Here, we consider exposure to be beautiful. Whoever has a good figure is the most beautiful! Of course, there are also many people who think that's not beautiful, so some wear traditional clothes. Look across the street, aren't there any girls wearing the same clothes as us?" Zhao Xiaofei pointed to a few girls taking photos in Hanfu.
"Then what should I wear?" asked Concubine Yuan.
"You can dress however you like. You will look the most beautiful in whatever you wear!" Zhao Xiaokun showed off his love in front of his younger brother this time.
"Brother! This isn't the time to show off your affection!" Zhao Xiaofei frowned. Concubine Yuan, feeling both shy and happy, moved closer to Zhao Xiaokun.
"Why are the buildings here so tall? Won't they collapse? How many people will live in this building?" Concubine Yuan suddenly saw an office building and asked.
"We have a lot of people here, so there are hundreds of households and thousands of people in one building!" said Zhao Xiaokun.
"Are we going to live in a house like this too? Will it be noisy?" asked Concubine Yuan.
"No! We are rich, so we live in a villa! There are fewer people there and it is quieter!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Are you in Nanjing?" asked Concubine Yuan.
"Yes! It's quieter with fewer people, but the area is small, not as big as your original house!" said Zhao Xiaokun.
"Why? Are houses very expensive here?" asked Concubine Yuan.
"It's very expensive!" the two brothers replied at the same time.
"How much is it?" asked Concubine Yuan. This woman, no matter what era she lived in, would always ask if someone had a house. Haha!
"Every inch of land is worth a lot of money! This house was bought at the price of gold!" said Zhao Xiaokun.
"You'll know when you get there! If you can't get used to it, I'll buy you a bigger one in the county. It's guaranteed to be as big as the previous one! It's just a little farther away!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
The car pulled up to a villa complex on the outskirts of Nanjing. This was what Zhao Xiaofei had bought for his eldest brother. It was meant to be used for his future marriage, as a bonus from the company. The brothers were close, and since he already had several houses in Nanjing, he decided to buy a few for his brother. The same thing happened in Beijing.
The villa in front of him was not small. The yard alone was 500 square meters. The villa area was 800 square meters. There was also a swimming pool in the middle of the yard. When Concubine Yuan saw it, she asked Zhao Xiaokun, "This pond is so ugly for raising fish!"
Zhao Xiaofei's face was full of black lines. Zhao Xiaokun said: "This is not for raising fish, it's for swimming!"
"Swimming! Dig a pond in the yard specifically for swimming?" Concubine Yuan was very confused.
"Modern people like swimming, running and fitness very much in order to prolong their lives!" said Zhao Xiaokun.
"Will it be useful? I have read about ways to keep in good health, but I have never heard of anyone living a long life by this method." Concubine Yuan said.
"It works! It can be said that this method increases the probability of people living longer! The average life expectancy in this era is 70 years old, which means that most people in the country can live to be seventy years old. The average life expectancy in the Ming Dynasty was less than thirty years old!" Zhao Xiaokun is a doctor and said from a medical perspective.
"Oh! I will also exercise in the future so that I can spend more time with you." Concubine Yuan said.
Zhao Xiaofei said, "Can you two stop showing off your affection in front of me?"
The three of them entered the villa, and Guan Xin was waiting in the villa's hall. Guan Xin saw the brothers Zhao Xiaokun and Zhao Xiaofei standing up happily, and she said, "Brother Xiaokun, Brother Xiaofei, this is Yuan Feifei's sister-in-law, right? She is so beautiful!"
"Who are you?" Concubine Yuan knew that someone was here to help her with her identity, but the girl in front of her was wearing a professional suit with her legs exposed, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
"I am your lawyer! I specialize in helping you with immigration matters!" Guan Xin said with a smile.
Concubine Yuan heard Zhao Xiaokun mentioning on the way what kind of lawyer she wanted to hire. She asked what a lawyer did. Zhao Xiaokun explained, "It's like the lawyers in our Ming Dynasty!"
So, in Concubine Yuan's eyes, Guan Xin was just a lawyer, because in ancient times, lawyers were not considered a good profession and were looked down upon by many scholars. So Concubine Yuan did not have a good impression of her. Although she seemed indifferent, she did not give Guan Xin any cold shoulder.
Guan Xin could tell that this sister had a bad impression of her, but she didn't know how she had offended her. Was she younger and prettier than her? Seeing Guan Xin's expression, Zhao Xiaokun quickly eased the atmosphere and said, "Guan Xin! How's the process going?"
Guan Xin was distracted by Zhao Xiaokun's question, so she said, "I arranged for my sister-in-law to obtain Rwandan citizenship. It cost 100,000 yuan and it was all done. You don't even have to go there in person. These small countries are so powerful that you can just pay them. Now all we need is for you two to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and the police station to handle the marriage procedures. I estimate that in five years, my sister will get citizenship. Here are my sister's passport and marriage documents! Congratulations. My sister will be the eldest lady of the Zhao family from now on!"
Guan Xin handed the document over, and Concubine Yuan took it personally. She was very happy. No one here knew her. Her name was Yuan Feifei, and she was Zhao Xiaokun's only legal wife. She had the right to inherit all of Zhao Xiaokun's property, and most importantly, she was his legal wife! She couldn't help but shed tears.
Looking at Concubine Yuan, who was not Yuan Feifei's excited look, Zhao Xiaokun said, "Don't be excited, you're pregnant!"
Yuan Feifei nodded, wiped away her tears, and smiled brightly. Zhao Xiaofei led Guan Xin to the study and said, "Well done! Don't you plan to work for me anymore? I heard you're going to open a law firm?"
"Thank you two brothers for your care over the past two years. I have learned a lot! I want to have my own career, so I plan to go it alone!" said Guan Xin.
"Okay! How about this, we each contribute half of the capital to the law firm! How about our company being the first client?" Zhao Xiaofei said.
"Thank you, Brother Xiaofei! Then I won't be polite!" Guan Xin said.
"The company has indeed encountered a lot of troubles in the past two years, and many business procedures are incomplete. If it weren't for you, the company would probably have to pay various fines and have a lot of trouble!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"This is what I should do! After all, Brother Xiaofei pays me a lot of salary! Can I ask a personal question?" Guan Xin asked.
"What do you say?" Zhao Xiaofei said.
"What is the identity of Brother Xiaokun's wife? Could it be that Xiaokun abducted her?" Guan Xin asked.
