The French Concession was the most prosperous area in Puhai before the liberation, but there was also a very different difference between the rich and the poor. The rich rich lived in the south, while the poor lived in the north.

In recent years, it has been divided into Luwan District and Xuhui District. However, Luwan District was later incorporated into Huangpu District, and the poor area to the north was incorporated into Luwan District, and the essence of the French Concession was divided into Xuhui District.

Near Tongren Road, it is undoubtedly the core area of ​​the French Concession. There are various old-fashioned garden villas with different styles, usually built during the Republic of China or earlier in the late Qing Dynasty. These villas represent a period of history in Puhai. Many historical celebrities have lived in these villa houses.

Some of these villas were built by senior officials and compradors of the colonies at that time, while others were built by business tycoons later in the Republic of China. After the liberation of Puhai, the original appearance was preserved here.

In the early stages of national liberation, especially during the initial turmoil of national construction, these villas were destroyed for a while, and many villas were divided to the poor, especially during the period of movement, these villas were divided to many ordinary people for a while, and even a villa was in a "grand occasion" with five or six families crowded with "popularity".

Later, after the leader who could draw circles implemented a new policy and made things right, many of these villas were taken back by the government. Some of them found the original owner, or their descendants returned to the original owner, and the other part, if they really couldn't find the owner, the government simply invested in renovating and renovating it, which was preserved as history.

Although the concept of small villas has begun to emerge in Puhai this year, even in expensive villas, it is difficult to match the price of such a small garden villa at this time.

Firstly, the geographical location of these garden villas is really good, secondly, it is also because of their scarcity, and thirdly, it is because of its historical value, so the prices of these villas in Puhai are absolutely not low these days, and it is no problem to spend millions of dollars.

The most important thing is that such a small villa is not something you can buy with money, because the source of such a villa is too few and too scarce.

The value of such garden villas is actually the same as the courtyard houses in Beijing ten years later, and they are all high-end residential areas with prices that are priceless.

Some of the original owners have already returned to the original owners, while others have been listed as a list of historical relics protection by the government. Even if you want to buy them, you can't buy them.

If you plan to buy from those who return the original owner, it is not easy to deal with. On the one hand, the price is expensive, and on the other hand, people are not willing to buy it. After all, if you are not too down, no one will want to buy their own ancestral houses. Secondly, everyone is not stupid. Everyone knows that the price of such a villa will only rise but not fall in the future, so if you are generally not forced to the extreme, no one will be willing to buy a villa in such a place.

Tang Tian’s aunt was able to get such a well-preserved villa with a yard in such a good location, which shows that Tang Tian’s aunt’s background and energy are quite difficult.

Li Yifan parked his car outside the door of this small garden villa. The environment of this street is very lacking. The road is not wide, with only two rows of lanes. Both sides of the road are full of French sycamore trees, lush and lush. On both sides of the road, there are almost all such old-fashioned villas. If it weren't for the neon lights on the skyscrapers in the distance, I would have thought I would have returned to the unique Puhai decades ago.

Tang Tian got out of the car and rang the doorbell of the villa. Soon someone came out and opened the gate of the villa. Standing at the door was a middle-aged woman who thought she was very well maintained. She had long hair tied up and her face was pale. When she saw Tang Tian, ​​she immediately started to scream.

"Oh! Tiantian, why did you arrive so late? I'm so worried."

The woman who came out was obviously Tang Tian’s aunt. She held Tang Tian’s hand as soon as she opened the door and kept complaining, her eyes were completely uninterrupted. Li Yifan took a look at him.

Behind the middle-aged beauty, there was a young man standing. The young man was slender and slim, with half-long hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was a bit handsome, which was very consistent with the feminine aesthetics of half-male and half-female that were popular ten years later.

At this time, he also looked at Tang Tian standing in front of the middle-aged woman, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Tiantian, why didn't you call me earlier? It made my mother and me very anxious."

The young man said to Tang Tian with a smile on his lips, but from his expression, he could not see any anxious look.

"Well, it's nothing. The road is a bit congested. I didn't want you to worry about it. I wasn't sure when it would arrive and didn't want you to wait, so I didn't call you. I didn't expect it to worry about it. I'm so sorry."

Faced with such relatives, Tang Tian returned to the expression of the iceberg queen in the past, and it can be seen that she and her relatives are not very close.

"Hey! You kid, what can you wait? Then you should call and say it earlier!?"

Tang Tian's aunt still looked at Li Yifan, who was standing beside Tang Tian, ​​completely pretending that he did not exist. At this time, Li Yifan also noticed that the young man standing behind Tang Tian's eyes swept towards him with a disdainful look.

"I forgot to introduce it to you. This is my classmate, Li Yifan, I came here by his car."

Tang Tian also noticed her aunt's expression and didn't want Li Yifan to feel embarrassed, so she introduced Li Yifan and her aunt.

"Well, hello Xiao Li."

Tang Qingxi raised her chin and glanced at Li Yifan, but she quickly moved away. She turned a blind eye to Li Yifan's right hand that reached over and planned to shake hands with her, and she didn't even mean to raise her hand.

Judging from his attitude, he didn't take Li Yifan seriously at all. His arrogant attitude really made Li Yifan feel a little angry!

The young man standing behind her burst into laughter, and the contemptuous expression on his face became even heavier. It was obvious that he regarded Li Yifan as a joke, which really made Li Yifan a little annoyed.

Tang Tian also saw that her aunt seemed to look down on Li Yifan a little. Although she didn't know why, she was also a little angry. However, Tang Tian was the kind of person who was not close to her and never just asked for a leak, so she continued.

"Yifan is my aunt Tang Qingxi and my cousin Tao Ran. By the way, you have been driving for a day and you are tired, otherwise you will sit in the house and take a shower. Anyway, my aunt's house is big. If you don't mind, just live here tonight!"

Tang Tian is expressing her meaning to her aunt in this way, don’t look down on others like this, he is my good friend.

Tang Qingxi obviously didn't expect that Tang Tian would invite Li Yifan to stay at home tonight. The expression on her face changed suddenly, but she quickly adjusted again.

"Yes, yes! If you don't dislike it, then Mr. Li will stay at home tonight. Anyway, the room at home is enough!"

Although she was inviting Li Yifan, even a fool could tell that she had no intention of sincerely inviting Li Yifan to stay at home.

Li Yifan was really happy to hear Tang Tian’s invitation, but when he saw her aunt’s family, he felt uncomfortable all over.

If he had changed to another house or place, Li Yifan would definitely stay there. But seeing Tang Qingxi's expression like this, Li Yifan felt that he really couldn't make it up to put his hot face on someone's cold butt, which was boring!

Even if you really have a shameless attitude, it will only make both sides unhappy.

"Haha, no, I have booked a room in Jinmao Building. If I can't go tonight, I will cancel my appointment. It will be very troublesome to go and book it again. I'd better stay there. It's still late. Tang Tian, ​​please come in quickly and get in with my aunt. Let's call us back."

When he heard Li Yifan speak like this, Tang Tian’s aunt’s face looked a little better at this time.

"That's right, just go quickly, Xiao Li, it's the peak tourist season now, and the room in Jinmao Building is not so easy to book. If you go late, you will definitely be snatched away by someone else."

Tang Tian's expression became a little depressed. It turned out that she didn't like her very much. This powerful aunt and her family would not have lived in their homes if they hadn't been stressing it repeatedly this time.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the door, my aunt gave Li Yifan a warning. This was too much. Didn’t my father tell her about Li Yifan’s relationship with him?

Li Yifan really didn't want to see Tang Qingxi's face, so he waved at Tang Tian, ​​then turned around and walked towards his Land Rover.

It was not until he opened the car door and got into the car that Tang Tian's cousin Tao Ran muttered.

"Little Chi Lao, is the car you drive pretty good? You're just a little bit..."

Tang Tian heard Tao Ran's words very clearly. She turned around and stared at Tao Ran fiercely. Tang Qingxi also noticed Tang Tian's anger and quickly pretended to slap Tao Ran gently twice.

"You kid, why don't you help your cousin, take your luggage in..."

The family turned around and entered the villa. At this time, Li Yifan, who had already driven to the street, had a hook on the corner of his mouth and a cold expression on his face.
