Chapter 809: Can't wait
Li Yi agreed and lazily returned to the bedroom. Yesterday, I was on duty all night, and I have been thinking about the pros and cons of the trip to the South China Sea, how to carry out water conservancy projects, and how to calm down the chaos in the South China Sea. In addition, he participated in the auction in the morning, and he was really sleepy, so Li Yi lay on the bed indiscriminately and fell asleep after a while.
As soon as he woke up the next morning, Li Yi exercised his body for half an hour as usual, and was about to have breakfast after washing, but he didn't expect Zhou Keming to walk in excitedly.
Li Yi couldn't help but secretly wonder to himself, Zhou Keming was originally a calm and serious person, why was he so anxious. Yesterday I came to invite him in person, and I came over early this morning to see his excitement, should it be some happy event at home!
Oh! Yes, he couldn't wait to come so much, he didn't want to share the joy of getting the Persian beauty with him!
Li Yi reluctantly got up and greeted him: "Keming, I was going to your mansion after dinner, why did you go to it yourself?" ”
Zhou Keming smiled mysteriously and said: "I'm not so anxious, it's just that my grandfather wants to see you, saying that he hasn't seen you for so long, and he is looking forward to meeting you." Hey! I don't know why! No, he arranged for me to come over early in the morning to invite me, and I couldn't help myself! ”
Hearing this, Li Yi couldn't help but be secretly surprised, Zhou Keming's grandfather Zhou Jie knew that he used to be the Si Tian Jian Cheng of the Tang Dynasty in the previous dynasty, and later moved to Lingnan to avoid chaos, and was used by the Liu brothers, and is currently serving as Si Tian Jian Shaoqing, and he is about 90 years old this year. It's just that he was so anxious to see himself, but he didn't know why.
Li Yi had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Since this is the case, of course I have to be called to go." Hehe! I have always wanted to visit Ling Zunweng, but I couldn't make it for many days, which is really rude. ”
Zhou Keming smiled: "How can you have so many sour rotten rituals?" My grandfather didn't leave the house on weekdays and didn't interact with people. Although he still has the title of Si Tianjian Shaoqing, he has not been to Si Tiantai for many years. Even if you want to visit him, I'm afraid he will avoid him! ”
Li Yi was stunned and said, "In that case, why did his old man summon me so urgently?" ”
Zhou Keming shook his head and smiled: "Then I don't know, yesterday he sent me early in the morning to ask about the old acquaintances who came to the capital recently, and I calculated that it was only you, so I told you about your achievements in Yunnan, but I didn't expect him to urge me to come to you." ”
"Alas! Yesterday I went to your house to pounce, but I didn't expect that early in the morning, he urged me to come and invite, this situation has never been before, I really don't understand what his old man's intentions are! ”
Hearing this, Li Yi was really a little confused. Although I don't know what the intersection between Li Yi and the Zhou family is in the past, I shouldn't have much contact, especially with Zhou Keming's grandfather Zhou Jie, and it is impossible to have any job contacts. Why is he in such a hurry to find himself?
Seeing that Li Yi was silent in thought, Zhou Keming on the side was a little anxious. He tugged at Li Yi's sleeve and said, "The carriage is outside, don't clean it up, I have already boiled porridge and baked cakes at home, and breakfast can be eaten at my house." ”
Li Yi looked at the anxious Zhou Keming with a smile, and nodded helplessly: "Keming, you can skip the meal, you have to let me put on a robe!" Wouldn't it be too impolite to go to his old man's house in such a disheveled manner. ”
Zhou Keming smiled embarrassedly and said, "Then hurry up and change into robes, my grandfather will never wait for others." ”
Li Yi and Zhou Keming sat side by side in the carriage, still puzzled in their hearts. It is indeed incomprehensible that an old man who is nearly ninety years old should be in such a hurry to see himself. The generation gap between the two ages is not one generation or two generations, and the difference between them is more than 60 years! In the body of a post-born boy, what is the reason for him to meet urgently? Alas!
The carriage walked a short distance along Xing'an Street, turned to the south, and after a short time, came to a gate engraved with 'Renjingfang'. Further through the three lanes, at the mouth of the lane on the left, the carriage stopped.
Zhou Keming beckoned Li Yi to get out of the carriage, and just after walking a few steps, a mansion with a vermilion lacquer gate appeared in front of him.
Zhou Keming smiled: "Runzhi probably hasn't been to my house for a long time, and when he comes today, he must look a little strange, right?" ”
Li Yi nodded noncommittally, and followed Zhou Keming into the courtyard gate.
This is a courtyard with only three entrances, the first two rows of each entry only four or five main houses, only the last main house is a three-story wooden building, the scale is not very large, and the decoration is not elegant. However, there are only seven or eight sparse porch houses on both sides, and there are not many servant women who want to come to the house.
There are no ornate pavilions in the courtyard, let alone any decent furnishings, but there are two tall and dense banyan trees planted next to the door between each entrance, and in addition, even flowers and plants are rare to see. The halls and buildings in this courtyard look a little old, and it is obvious that they have not been properly renovated for many years.
Li Yi followed Zhou Keming directly to the last small building, Zhou Keming smiled: "My grandfather lives in this small building, I was afraid that his legs and feet would not be dexterous, and I wanted him to rest on the first floor, but his old man resolutely disagreed, and he has been living on the third floor for decades, and now he rarely even comes to the courtyard." ”
Li Yi nodded, and followed Zhou Keming up the stairs, through the dark stairs of the small building, to the third floor.
The third floor is smaller than the first and second floors, but there are windows on all sides, and it is a relatively bright attic at best. The layout in the attic is also very simple, except for a row of bookcases against the wall inside, a wooden bed at the base of the wall of the cabinet, and a huge table in the middle of the house, there are only two antique Taishi chairs, which are placed on both sides of the cases.
On the Taishi chair on the right hand of several cases, there was an old man with a white beard, who thought it was Zhou Keming's grandfather Zhou Jie.
What makes Li Yi feel strange is that although Zhou Jie's eyebrows are lowered and his white hair is like snow, he has no trace of describing the appearance of withering, and even the wrinkles are very few, not at all like an old man who is nearly 90 years old.
He has been carefully watching Li Yi since he entered the attic, and there seems to be a deep meaning in his eyes.
Facing his deep and sharp gaze, Li Yi felt a little uneasy, and hurriedly approached to salute: "Junior Li Yi to meet Ah Weng!" ”
