Chapter 39: Family History

"Listen to you, the landlord, hahaha. ”

............

A group of four people left the terminal and came to the Mercedes-Benz, originally Zhou Fan was going to drive the Citroen back, and let Feng Wei drive the Mercedes-Benz and carry the two academicians Guan Daoye.

But on the way, Academician Guan Daoye said that on the way, he wanted Zhou Fan, a local, to introduce the customs of Shennongjia to him, and by the way, he asked Zhou Fan a few questions about the old house.

Zhou Fan obeyed the arrangement, and drove a Mercedes-Benz to Zhoujiawan with Guan Dao Yehe and far away.

On the way back, Zhou Fan didn't dare to be as half-hearted as when he came, and looked at the road ahead meticulously, driving......

......

"Xiao Zhou, I said, don't be nervous, I'm embarrassed to make the old man like this. ”

Guan Daoye looked at Zhou Fan in the driver's seat and said with a smile.

"Yes, Xiao Zhou, be casual, the teacher usually doesn't like too serious occasions, you can treat him like an old man in your family, just do it." ”

Xiang Yuan also explained with a smile in the passenger seat.

"Hey!"

However, when Xiang Yuan looked at Zhou Fan's little thumb that was holding the steering wheel and trembled slightly, he shook his head with a smile.

"Xiao Zhou, I heard Xiao Wei say that your house is an ancestral heirloom, right?"

Guan Daoye asked casually in the back row, and the old man wanted to relieve Zhou Fan's current mood.

"Yes, Academician Guan. Zhou Fan glanced at the rearview mirror with a smile and immediately looked ahead.

"Xiao Zhou, you just call me a teacher and Guan Lao. ”

Xiang Yuan looked at Zhou Fan, who was driving, and said with a smile.

"Hey!"

Zhou Fan turned his head and glanced at Xiang Yuan with grateful eyes.

"Is there still an old man in your family now, or is there a family tree?" Guan Daoye continued to chat with Zhou Fan.

"Guan Lao, that's right, my parents and grandfather have passed away, but I still have my own uncle. ”

"The genealogy is now in my own uncle's place, after returning to Zhoujiawan, if you want to see it, I will go and bring it to you for you to see!"

Along the way, Guan Daoye chatted and asked Zhou Fan about the various situations of the old mansion and the customs of Shennongjia.

Xiang Yuan, who was sitting next to Zhou Fan, also asked two questions from time to time.

After a long time, Zhou Fan also slowly relaxed from the nervousness at the beginning.

............

About an hour later, the two cars returned to Zhoujiawan and stopped in front of the old house.

After getting off the bus, Guan Daoye looked at the scenery of Zhoujiawan and the old house in front of him, and sighed: "The place is a little remote, but it is a good place, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the people are outstanding!"

"It's a good place to retire here!" Xiang Yuan interjected.

Zhou Fan called Yang Wei, who was standing on the side, and whispered to Yang Wei: "Make some of our specialties here at night, you must do it well!"

Yang Wei looked at Zhou Fan and nodded, and whispered a promise: "Don't worry!

After speaking, Yang Wei turned around and went to prepare the evening's meal.

After telling Yang Wei, Zhou Fan also came to Guan Daoye's side to wait, in case Guan Daoye wanted to ask something more, he could answer in time.

And Feng Wei has already told them to leave work early today and let them go back to rest.

......

"Xiao Zhou, this gate is according to the system of this old house, normally, it shouldn't be like this, you know?"

Guan Daoye stopped in front of the gate of the old mansion, turned his head and asked Zhou Fan.

Zhou Fan looked puzzled, and replied cautiously: "Guan Lao, for as long as I can remember, this gate has been like this." ”

"That's Guan Lao, I'll call my uncle to you, he knows this old mansion better than me. ”

"Okay!"

Guan Daoye's brows furrowed, and he looked at Zhou Fan kindly.

"Feng Gong, then you can greet Guan Lao, and I will go back as soon as I go. Zhou Fan turned to look at Feng Wei next to him and said.

Feng Wei smiled and nodded in agreement.

......

Zhou Fan walked quickly to Zhou Xinmin's house, and his uncle Zhou Xinmin was in front of his vacant land, pulling the rice on the ground with a nail rake.

Seeing Zhou Fan rushing over with a anxious face, he couldn't help but ask, "Fanfan, what's wrong, something happened at home?"

Zhou Fan smiled awkwardly: "Uncle, come with me to the old mansion, someone wants to see you!"

"What's the matter, frizzy!" Zhou Xinmin said, putting down the nail rake.

"Didn't you just drive back!"

"Yes, there was a professor from Huaqing University sitting in my car just now, and he is also an academician of the National Academy of Engineering!"

"Professor, academician?" Zhou Xinmin asked with a puzzled expression.

"Uncle, come with me, don't let the academicians wait for a long time, I'll tell you on the way. ”

"By the way, take our family tree!"

"And a genealogy?"

............

"Guan Lao, this is my uncle Zhou Xinmin, he is still the village chief and village party secretary of Zhoujiawan. Zhou Fan introduced the uncle to Guan Daoye.

"Academician Guan, on behalf of the 86 villagers in Zhoujiawan, I welcome you to come and inspect," Zhou Xinmin said as he held Guan Daoye's hand tightly.

"Brother Zhou is polite, what is the inspection. ”

"You go into the house. ”

............

"Brother Zhou, are you familiar with this house?" Guan Daoye sat in the main hall, drinking tea, and looked at Zhou Xinmin who was sitting next to him and asked.

also looked at the Zhou family tree that Zhou Xinmin took from time to time.

"It's familiar, I am cousins with Zhou Fan's grandfather, my father was the second, and Zhou Fan's great-grandfather was the eldest. ”

"After the family was separated, my uncle inherited this old mansion, and then it was passed on to Zhou Fan, when I was a child, and even now, I often come to the old mansion. Zhou Xinmin replied.

"Has this house changed much in your impression?" Guan Daoye continued.

"The change is a lot, there was no yard in front of me, it was added by my brother when he was in wenge, and the garden in the back was also added by my nephew later. ”

"Alas, the front door of the house was magnificent, with a big red gate, and the front of the door was paved with cyan slate bricks, and there was a locust tree......"

Zhou Xinmin slowly recalled and told the history of the old mansion.

Zhou Fan was also listening to Zhou Xinmin's narration, but this was his own family history, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

For as long as he can remember, Zhou Fan has never seen his grandfather, and his father said that he died of illness when he was 2 years old.

Zhou Fan's father never told him about his family's old calendars.

Only occasionally from the chatter of the old people in the village learned how rich his family used to be, and Zhou Fan was proud of it when he was a child.

Guan Daoye listened to Zhou Xinmin tell the history of this old mansion, and wrote and drew in his notebook with a pen.

After a while, he looked up at Zhou Xinmin and said with a smile:

"Brother Zhou, if you don't have anything to do today, I have to trouble you to accompany me to take a walk around this old mansion and take a look, what places have changed in your memory, I need you to point it out!"

"Okay! Brother Guan, don't worry, I remember this old mansion clearly here!" Zhou Xinmin pointed to his head and replied with a smile.
