Go to college with space

The train arrives at Yanjing at 40:[-] p.m. The station in the capital is really big, with a lot of people, there are people everywhere, the four of them exchanged phone numbers and then separated, the three of them have a school car to pick them up, and Mi Le stands alone Look for it at the exit.Soon he saw a sign with his name written on it, Mi Le stepped forward quickly, and a middle-aged man in his [-]s stood there.

"Hello, are you Uncle Qin? I'm Mi Le." Qin Zheng turned his head and saw a big boy who was about 1.8 meters tall and slightly thin.

Putting down the sign, he smiled and stretched out his hand, "Hi, I'm Qin Zheng. I don't really look like the one in the photo. Hehe."

Mi Le stretched out his hand and shook it, "Hello, Uncle Qin, I'm sorry to trouble you, I need you to go to the station on such a hot day."

Qin Zheng smiled and said to Mi Le, "Don't be polite to me, Yang and I are old friends, and your parents haven't come back to see it for so many years, and they are not afraid that I will secretly sell Mr. Yang's things. Now that you're here, I can let it go." This person has a good personality, and he jokes when we first meet, without making you feel abrupt, and naturally brings the relationship closer.

Mi Le smiled, "My parents didn't care about these things. If it wasn't written clearly in my grandfather's will, I'm afraid my parents would have wanted to donate at that time. Originally, there was still a grandfather in Yanjing for my mother to worry about. Since the death of my grandfather, After that, she didn't even want to come back."

Qin Zheng sighed, "Yeah, this is your mother's sad place too, so let's not mention it. Where do you plan to live these days? If you don't go to my house, there is room at home." While talking, he arrived at the car storage place, Mi Le didn't expect that Uncle Qin also understood the grievances back then. Perhaps his grandfather had mentioned it to him. Mi Le didn't pursue the question any further. No matter what happened, as long as his mother is happy now.

"Can grandpa live there? I think I should live there."

Qin Zheng started the car, "Although Mr. Yang hasn't lived there for a few years, there has always been a housekeeping company responsible for cleaning. It's still possible to live there. But we still need to buy some bedding."

Mi Le breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't want to live in a hotel, let alone disturb Qin Zheng's house.

Qin Zheng introduced to Mi Le while driving, "Your grandfather lives in Laohuai Hutong, you came here once when you were young, right?"

Mi Le nodded, "I came here once when I was five years old, but I only went back after living in the yard for a few days. When my grandfather passed away, I had a serious illness, so I couldn't come here." Mi Le felt a little regretful. It has been ten years, because of his cheeks, he has not been able to see his grandfather for the last time, which has become his lifelong regret.Although my mother didn't go back to Yanjing very often, my grandfather often came to live at home, and Mi Le and my grandfather had a very good relationship.

Qin Zheng changed the subject, "Your grandfather is still alive, and he hired a man named Lin Yong. He is a retired soldier with good skills, but his throat was cut during the war. Although he came back alive, his throat is somewhat impaired. How to talk. This person is nice. I have been relying on him to look after the house all these years, and nothing happened. The things in the house have long been missed. In the early years, many people made up their minds, but Lin Yong cleaned them up. The weather is calm. He also has a wife who came from the countryside. She is a clean person. If you have no objections, let them stay. It will be safer for you to live here with him."

Mi Le had heard of this man before. When his parents chatted, his mother said that his grandfather knew people. At the beginning, Lin Yong was not used because of his speech problems. "I don't have any objections. I still want to thank him. It's not easy after so many years."

While talking, the car drove to Laohuai Hutong, where parking was not allowed, so Qin Zheng parked the car outside, and the two walked towards the alley.On the ground paved with blue bricks, there are courtyards on both sides. When the two walked in, there were some old people playing chess at the crossing. At this time, when the old man and the old lady came out to buy vegetables for leisure, they could see some old people standing there holding vegetable baskets and saying As they spoke, it wasn't that someone passed them by on a bicycle, Mi Le felt the breath of Yanjing.

No. 72 is the house number of the house. It is in the middle of the alley. This area is very quiet, because there are basically no people here except passers-by. When you come from the east, you can see a row of inverted houses. Mr. Yang’s courtyard is quite The big one is more than 60 meters long from east to west, and less than 100 meters long from north to south. This nearly [-]-square-meter courtyard is rare in Yanjing, not to mention that it is so well preserved, which shows how much painstaking efforts Mi Le's grandfather took.

The lacquered red gate occupies an area of ​​one bay. Under the eaves, there are sparrows and three clouds. On the back eaves, there are two small stone lions on both sides. The gate is called Guangliang Gate, and the earliest residents of this house were first-rank officials in the Qing Dynasty, and the house was built with great attention.Later, the Qing Dynasty perished, and the families of first-rank officials also fell.The house was bought by Mrs. Yang.

It can be seen from the courtyard gate that the house is very well preserved, the paint and color paintings on it seem to have been painted not long ago, and the gate is very clean everywhere, Qin Zheng buckled the copper handle twice.Immediately afterwards, I heard a dog barking inside, "These are two dogs raised by Lin Yong, and they are especially alert."

A black-faced man less than 1.8 meters tall opened the door, saw Qin Zheng nodded and then looked at Mi Le.

Mi Le felt that the gaze was calm and dangerous, like a falcon looking calm, but would strike like thunder when it saw its prey.

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is Mi Le, the grandson of Mr. Yang. This is the Lin Yong I told you about. You can call him Uncle Lin."

"Hello, Uncle Lin." Lin Yong nodded and did not speak. Mi Le saw an ugly scar on his neck lying across his throat. Mi Le looked away but felt a little admiration in his heart. It takes a lot of perseverance to get such a scar. survive.

Lin Yong led the two of them in. Facing the door was a screen wall with a huge blessing character on it, and patterns of flowers, birds, fish and insects on the four corners.Turning around and walking through the screen door, a woman in her 40s came out from the inverted room inside the screen door on the west side, "This is Aunt Lin, Minghui, and this is Mi Le, the grandson of Elder Yang."

This Aunt Lin looks ordinary, but she looks like a cheerful person. When she saw Mi Le, she smiled all over her face, "Just get off the train, are you hungry? My food is ready here." Looking at her personality, she is completely different from Uncle Lin. .

Mi Le nodded and smiled at Aunt Lin, "Then thank you Aunt Lin, I'll eat when I settle down."

Aunt Lin smiled and said straightforwardly, "Okay, I'll warm it up for you." She turned around and entered the room.

There were two dogs squatting at the second door, purebred wolfhounds, watching Qin Zheng and Mi Le vigilantly, but probably because the owner was here, neither barked nor stepped forward.

Mi Le liked it. He has always liked small animals, not to mention such two large dogs.

Entering the second gate, this is a standard quadrangle courtyard, with corridors on both sides connecting the main house and two side rooms. The courtyard is somewhat empty, and there are two big locust trees in front of the three main rooms. For some years, the branches are a little withered, and the leaves are also gone. Not as bushy.In the small courtyard in front of the side room on the west side of the main building, there is a luxuriant bamboo planting. Walking to the back yard, there is a hall in the middle. There is a small courtyard in front of which there are no plants, but there is a small pavilion with a well in it, which makes Mi Le can't help but I was a little surprised. You must know that there are very few sweet water wells in Yanjing due to geographical constraints. I didn’t expect there to be one here, but I just don’t know how the water quality is.

The back yard is longer than the front yard from north to south. There are five main rooms. There are also two pagoda trees in front of the main rooms. In the courtyard surrounded by a corridor, there are empty flowers that have not been planted since grandpa passed away. Mi Le remembers that year It was full of flowers and plants when he was growing up. At that time, he couldn't name the flowers, but he only remembered being stung by bees when picking the flowers.

I didn't go further to the back, there was a row of upside-down houses, and there was nothing to see.Through the Moon Gate, the three of them came to the East Road Courtyard, which is divided into two entrances, front and back. There is an inverted room in the front and corridors on both sides of the main hall. There are rockery pavilions, pools and trees in the garden, but they have not been taken care of for a long time, and most of the flowers and plants in the garden are dead. .When I walked to the backyard, I saw that the buildings here were small and exquisite, mostly the scenery of Suzhou gardens.

Having glanced at the house hastily, Mi Le felt a little uneasy. This kind of house is rare in the capital. Although it is the old house of the Yang family, it is a miracle in itself that it can be preserved for more than ten years after the death of grandpa. You must know that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Beijing, he does not believe that no one has paid attention to this house, but in fact, no one has touched it except for some small thieves. whats the matter.Mi Le sighed, as long as he came, he will be at ease.Wait and see.

Mi Le saw that the doors, windows, and colored paintings in the house looked very new, as if they had just been painted. After asking, he found out that his father asked Qin Zheng to find someone to restore it a year ago. After all, this house has not been lived in for ten years. The restoration of the yard took more than eight months, and every step must not be sloppy, otherwise it will be ruined.Mi Le's mood improved a lot, so he only needed to plant flowers and plants in the yard to restore his grandfather's appearance when he was alive.

The three of them returned to the front yard, and Lin Yong opened the door. There were four vermilion lacquer hollowed-out doors, and the furniture inside was quite complete. Mr. Yang himself liked to collect antiques very much, and most of the furniture in the house were old objects from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

When Mi Le walked into the room, he felt that he had traveled through time and space, and had a feeling of returning to the Qing Dynasty. The furniture in the room was complete, but the decorations were missing. There was nothing on the bed and chairs on the Bogu shelf.All these have to be added by Mi Le himself.

The east room of the main landlord is the bedroom. There are two hollow doors outside the bedroom. The inside is divided into two spaces, the north and the south, by a floor-to-ceiling door in the shape of a moon door. There is a set of round table and stool with drum nails in the middle.On the east wall, there is a square-outer and inner-circle Chinese character-shaped Bogu shelf. Inside the floor-to-ceiling cover is a carved canopy bed. On the east side, there is a carved three-sided screen. In the middle of the screen is a Suzhou embroidery peony picture. Behind the screen is the bathroom.There are also small pieces of furniture in the house.

Looking at the furnishings in the house, Mi Le could tell that his grandfather really liked antiques, and this house could be put in a museum.

After a cursory glance, Aunt Lin came in from the outside, holding a brand new quilt in her hands, "When Mr. Yang passed away, all the quilts were burned. I heard that you are coming, so I made two quilts, you use them first."

Mi Le was very warm in his heart, "Thank you, Aunt Lin, it must have taken a lot of time." Seeing that the quilt was sewn by himself, he was cared for by someone who had never met.

"Thank you, I'll make a bed for you. I've cleaned the house, and you can live in it after you make the quilt." Aunt Yang said straightforwardly.

"Hehe, I don't worry about that, Mi Le, come here." Qin Zheng took Mi Le to the drum pedal outside to finish the job, took out some documents and a bank card from the bag, "How many documents are here?" The office needs your signature. Take a look. This is a bank card issued by your parents in your name. Your grandfather still has two courtyard houses in Houhai and three storefronts in Panjiayuan. These places are rented out. Part of it is used to maintain the garden, and there are various expenses. Ten percent is donated to the Hope Project according to Mr. Yang's wishes, and the rest is here. You can check it. This is the list." Qin Zheng will The information was placed in front of Mi Le.

Mi Le once again lamented his grandfather's ability to know people. In the past few years, his parents hadn't asked much about the affairs here, but Lawyer Qin handled it very clearly. The various expenses in this schedule are clear and clear. Such a person is too rare.

"It's really troublesome Uncle Qin." Mi Le signed some documents.

Qin Zheng collected the documents, "By the way, do you have to apply for your household registration now? This piece of courtyard house is preserved as a cultural relic, and basically it will not be rebuilt. I think it would be better for you to settle here directly."

Mi Le thought for a while, "My file should be transferred to the school, and the household registration should also be left in the school."

Qin Zheng smiled, "It's okay, I've prepared all these, just to see whether you can go back after graduation, if you go back, you won't be settled, but I'm afraid there will be any changes in that case. It's hard to say in the future. You don't need to do anything else Tube."

Mi Le nodded and once again lamented how powerful Qin Zheng was. He settled in the capital just like that. "Well, it's the same everywhere. As long as it doesn't bother you." Mi Le thought it would be more convenient for him to have a capital residence. , not to mention that they may want to open it after their parents retire. After all, this is the place where they have lived for more than 20 years, and they will miss it after all.
