Chapter 125: The First Arrival at Zuo's House (2)

Yang Chengzhi, who followed Zuo Jianhua, entered the courtyard and looked around, the courtyard was about 50 meters wide, paved with blue bricks, and there was a row of brick and wood wings on the left and right sides, roughly more than 20 rooms each, and there was also a row of houses close to the courtyard gate.

These houses carved railings and painted buildings, very magnificent, facing the courtyard gate is a piece of more than four meters high, more than six meters wide on the wall, there are glazed tiles on it to form a welcoming pine, the back is hollowed out with blue bricks to carve into the pattern of pine cranes prolonging the year.

Behind the wall is a small fish pond of about 20 square meters, in which the size of the ten centimeters of various colors of goldfish swims, and there are dozens of white lotus flowers blooming on the green lotus leaves on the water surface.

In the center of the courtyard are eight grand houses, which are taller than the east and west wings of the courtyard.

Along the paved path of blue bricks, a few people bypassed the eight houses with closed doors, and on the north side of the courtyard sat this row of fourteen or fifteen main houses that were taller and more imposing than the houses in the courtyard.

The blue bricks of the main house are the walls, the glazed tiles cover the roof, the eaves and flying beams are carved and painted in various legendary stories, and the seven or eight meter-high begonias are planted on both sides of the door steps, and the blooming flowers exude an attractive fragrance.

Qian walked back and forth at the door of the house, and these seven or eight Zhongnanhai bodyguards in civilian clothes.

Zuo Jianhua pointed to a room in the middle, and whispered to Yang Chengzhi that his grandfather was in this room, climbed six steps, and Zuo Jianhua pushed the door into the house.

Yang Chengzhi, who followed behind, peeked at the room, the room area is more than 50 meters, the decoration is simple, in the middle of the room is an ancient wood carved table of eight immortals, surrounded by four antique Taishi chairs.

On the wall behind the table of the Eight Immortals hangs a picture of a tiger descending the mountain. Leaning against the window, there is a row of pale blue leather sofas, a few landscape paintings hanging on the left wall of the house, and these cabinet shelves on the right, on which are some antiques.

An old man with gray hair sat on the sofa with his back to them, trimming several pots of Gentleman's Orchid that had been placed in front of the sofa.

There is a man and a woman standing next to the old man, the man is in his fifties, about 1.8 meters tall, with a Chinese face, full of righteousness, but he is a little similar to Zuo Jianhua, the woman is dressed at home, about forty years old, medium looking, holding a watering can in her hand.

The middle-aged man saw Zuo Jianhua and the four of them enter the house, put his hand to his mouth and made a forbidden gesture, Zuo Jianhua crawled to Yang Chengzhi's ear and said: "This is my father, it is my grandfather who cuts the flowers, and that is Aunt Hongye, the daughter of my grandfather's comrade-in-arms."

The old man sitting on the sofa trimming the flowers and plants may have heard the sound of the door and asked without looking back, "It's the little monkey and the little girl who have returned."

Seeing the old man speak, Zuo Yumei trotted to sit next to the old man, hugged the old man's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandpa, Yumei has come to see you."

The old man put down the tools in his hand, picked up the towel on the coffee table and wiped his hands a few times, reached out and pinched Zuo Yumei's nose, and said with a smile: "Little girl, how long has it been since I came to see grandpa."

Zuo Yumei put her head on the old man's shoulder, her nose wrinkled slightly, "Grandpa, I flattened other people's noses, so why should I go out to meet people,"

The old man stretched out his hand and rubbed Zuo Yumei's head a few times, "This girl, she is not growing up, what do you want to be so beautiful, and she can't be eaten."

The old man looked back at Zuo Jianhua and asked, "I heard that you and this girl Yumei went to Pingcheng a few days ago, and saw Sun Dacang in Pingcheng, how is the old guy's body and bones now."

Zuo Jianhua shrunk his neck, "Grandpa, Grandpa Sun's body looks stronger than yours, and it takes half an hour to go out every morning, Grandpa Sun asked me to bring the Chinese medicine doctor who treated him over to my sister-in-law to see the disease, you see."

Saying that, Zuo Jianhua pulled Yang Chengzhi in front of him, "Grandpa, this is what Grandpa Sun said about Yang Chengzhi, Grandpa Sun's illness was cured by Chengzhi, and the immortal drunk and blood jade tea you drank were also made by Chengzhi himself."

Yang Chengzhi took a closer look at the old man who might be his grandfather, and saw that the old man was eighty-five or sixteen years old, with a thin face, silver hair, and a wrinkled face with many age spots unique to the elderly. The old man sitting on the sofa exudes an aura that makes people feel oppressed.

The old man raised his eyes and glanced at Yang Chengzhi, the old man was stunned on the sofa for a while, and after a long time, the old man looked back at the pair of men and women standing beside him.

Zuo Jianhua's father, Zuo Yaozu, and the middle-aged woman named Hongye were also shocked, they really couldn't imagine that the young man standing in front of them was so similar to the young man more than 20 years ago, it was like being dragged out of a mold.

Zuo Yaozu opened his mouth and didn't speak, but looked at his stunned father, Old Man Zuo also felt that he was a little out of shape, and said calmly: "I heard Lao Sun say, your name is Yang Chengzhi, a native of Yangjiagou in Pingcheng, your ancestors are famous doctors, and then because of the war, your ancestors did not practice medicine in the open, and transferred to cooking. ”

You are an abandoned child picked up by Yang Tieshan Yang 23 years ago, admitted to Beijing Normal University at the age of 17, and went to Yangcheng to work at the age of 22, and then I don't know what hurt you, I returned to my hometown Yangjiagou to grow vegetables and raise fish, and at the beginning of this year, I inadvertently saved Old Man Sun and his granddaughter in Yangcheng."

Yang Chengzhi was taken aback when he heard it, he just briefly told Old Man Sun about his family history, but he didn't expect that Old Man Zuo's own actions were under the control of the old man, and he couldn't help but secretly praise the strength of the Huaxia intelligence department.

Yang Chengzhi smiled faintly and said, "You are always the grandfather of Brother Zuo, and I also dare to call you Grandpa Zuo, and I ask you to take care of me when I come to the door."

I listened to Grandpa Sun. Zuo's eldest brother and sister-in-law were frightened when they were young, and they are still demented and can't recognize their family, so they wanted to come over to see if they could give her old man a look and see if she could make her old illness improve."

Old Man Zuo nodded, he was very satisfied with Yang Chengzhi's appearance, the young people he had seen were basically too frightened to speak when they saw him.

But the young man in front of him was not surprised, he could answer calmly in front of him, and Zuo Yaozu, who was standing beside him, asked: "Xiao Yang, you are an outcast, you haven't looked for your parents, what kind of tokens can your parents leave for you?"

Yang Chengzhi's heart tightened, he also heard Old Man Sun say that he looked very similar to the son of the Zhou family, and it seemed that the father and son of the Zuo family also saw something.

So he said: "Uncle Zuo, I heard my grandfather say that I was picked up by my grandfather from near the Chengde Summer Resort in Yanzhao Province, and when my grandfather picked me up, there was only a jade pendant that looked like jade and non-jade, like gold and non-gold and a silk scarf with the eight characters of birth written on it.

Old man Zuo glanced at Zuo Yaozu appreciatively, in fact, he also wanted to ask, terrible and frightened Yang Chengzhi, his son Zuo Yaozu's question was exactly what he wanted.

Hearing Yang Chengzhi say this, there was still a jade pendant and a silk scarf at that time, and the old man Zuo's heart moved.

He remembered that his wife, that is, Zuo Jianhua's grandmother, wore a jade pendant that looked like jade but not jade when he married him.

Later, when her daughter Zuo Yuxia got married, the old lady gave the jade pendant to Zuo Yuxia, and then after Zuo Yuxia's accident, this jade pendant disappeared.

My wife has been depressed because of her daughter Yuxia, and finally became seriously ill, and she also returned a few years ago, and no one mentioned the matter of this jade pendant.

Today, when I suddenly heard that Yang Chengzhi had a jade pendant similar to the dowry jade pendant given to his daughter by his wife, and then looked at Yang Chengzhi's appearance, Old Man Zuo's heart suddenly moved.
