Chapter 1203: A Different Wang Family

The car drove into the tree-lined path, and the breeze blew in through the car window, breaking into the open shirt collar of Lu Shanmin, and it was untimely and slightly cold.

Tall metasequoia and ginkgo trees line the streets, and there are no pedestrians on the road, and there are few vehicles to be seen.

It's quiet, it's a little bit quiet, it's not like it's in Tianjing City.

High and low, between the scattered trees, sometimes flash low red walls and gray tiles.

It is not atmospheric, and even looks a little old, but it is solemn and solemn, full of the heaviness of the times.

The car jolted slightly on the stone pavement, and I don't know where Wei Wuxian got the broken pasat creaked.

Ancient wood forest, clear silk and quiet.

This place is very different from what Lu Shanmin imagined.

Wei Wuxian said that this is the legendary compound, and although they are all old buildings from the last century, they are by no means rich to live in. Maybe the people who go out of here are not very rich, but they can definitely despise those so-called rich people outside.

The descendants of the Wang family, including Wang Yuankai, have long since moved out, and after the death of the old man Wang, only Wang Yuankai's parents are still living here.

Lu Shanmin has already seen that there are almost no pedestrians along the way, except for a few sentry posts in military uniforms, this kind of old courtyard is estimated to be where the older generation of bigwigs lived, and now it is more of a symbolic meaning.

After getting out of the car and coming to the door of Wang Yuankai's house, Lu Shanmin knew why Wei Wuxian asked them to dress low-key.

The quaint and old lintel, the steps are clean but old, and there are many rounded notches on it.

The gate is wooden, the red paint on it is mottled, there are obvious traces of peeling off and repairing, the bright red one should have been patched in recent years, and the dark red one does not know how many years ago the lacquer.

Wang Yuankai was standing at the door with a smile, wearing a much simpler shirt than when he was in Yipinge, white shirt, black trousers, and very ordinary pointed shoes.

Wang Yuankai greeted him, gave Lu Shanmin a big hug, and patted Wei Wuxian's shoulder.

"Welcome to the Humble House"!

"Thank you!" Lu Shanmin thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Yuankai was not polite, took Lu Shanmin's hand and walked inside.

The yard is not big, about forty or fifty square meters, and there is a tall and straight ginkgo tree planted in it, surrounded by some flowers and plants. On either side are two small wings, the main hall is slightly larger, but not much.

"There used to be two other families living in the wings on both sides, but when they moved away, my grandfather bought them."

Lu Shanmin walked and looked around, Wang Yuankai's home was very different from what he imagined, this small courtyard was actually not as big as his home in Mazui Village, and it might be about the same as where Lao Shenzhu and Xiao Nizi lived.

Xiao Nizi originally came with great curiosity, thinking that a family like the Wang family, which had once produced big names, should be luxurious, but she didn't expect it to be like this, and she couldn't help but be disappointed.

"It's too small, any family in Mazui Village is bigger than yours."

Lu Shanmin glared at Xiao Nizi, who stuck out his tongue, shrugged his shoulders, turned his head to the other side, and said in a low voice: "It was."

"Brother Wang, Xiao Nizi has a straightforward personality, don't take it to heart."

Wang Yuankai smiled, "Sister Xiao Nizi's heart is very much in line with me, if you want to put it in your heart, it is even more likable."

"Brother Yuan Kai, you can't do this." Wei Wuxian was a little anxious.

Wang Yuankai ignored Wei Wuxian and continued: "It's much better now, I remember when I was very young, there was no separation at that time, the family was old and young, men and women, large and small, all of them were crammed into one house, and I slept on the ground for several years."

"Oh no, isn't your grandfather a general, how can he be so poor?" Xiao Nizi was stunned in surprise.

Wang Yuankai laughed again, "That's right, it's really poor, I can't imagine it." As he spoke, he pointed at Wei Wuxian, "There is no comparison with their family, our family is the proletariat, and their family is the bourgeoisie."

Walking into the hall, I saw a little modern atmosphere, TV, sofa, air conditioner are all available, but it is the ordinary configuration of an ordinary family, there is no difference.

In the center of the hall hangs a picture of the leader, and below it are many military medals packed in glass boxes, as well as many yellowed military merit certificates.

There is also a large photo frame on the left wall, inside is a black and white photo of an old man, the old man has a white face and a wrinkled face, but his eyes are embarrassed, and his white hair is like a strong iron bone, full of power.

Lu Shanmin looked at the old man in a daze, and a kind of admiration from the bottom of his heart arose.

"This is my grandfather". Wang Yuankai stood beside Lu Shanmin and said to the photo: "The old man joined the army at the age of fifteen, climbed over snow-capped mountains, walked through grasslands, walked through most of China, experienced hundreds of battles, and killed one hundred and one devils with his own hands. He used to like to tell me about his heroic deeds."

said with a wry smile, "As soon as he speaks, he talks endlessly, and his ears are calloused, I often hate him for nagging, and I avoid him every time, and now I don't have a chance to listen to his nagging."

Lu Shanmin bowed to the old man, "The old man is the real hero."

Wang Yuankai patted Lu Shanmin on the shoulder and beckoned the three of them to sit down.

"If the old man were still alive, he would definitely like you."

As he spoke, he shouted inside, "Mom, the mountain people are here."

Zheng Xiu quickly walked out of the kitchen, holding a plate of cut fruit in her hand, wearing ordinary home clothes, with a white apron tied around her waist, much more plain than the last time she went to Tiandu Hotel to see him, it seems that she was carefully dressed last time.

"Welcome, welcome, the home is a little small, please don't mind too much". Zheng Xiu came out to greet warmly,

"Aunt Zheng is polite." Lu Shanmin hurriedly got up and took the plate.

"Wuxian is here too, you haven't been to our house for a long time."

"Aunt Zheng is still so beautiful". Wei Wuxian laughed.

"Your mouth is still so sweet".

Zheng Xiu took Xiao Nizi's hand, "What a beautiful little girl."

"I am the prettiest girl in our village". Xiao Nizi said humbly.

"She has a good personality, she is really a rare good girl."

Xiao Nizi's face was full of sweet smiles, "Auntie, your eyes are so good."

Everyone laughed.

"Kaiyuan, good students greet them, I'll go to the kitchen to cook. And go and call your dad out, and when you come back, hide in the study and make fools."
