Chapter 45: The Former Residence of Mountains and Rivers
It was still drizzling in the sky, and the dark clouds seemed to cover the whole sky. At the end of the summer, it seems that this is the last rain of the summer.
The sky was a little dreary, and although autumn had not yet fully arrived, the cold air in the air made passers-by who were still wearing short sleeves a little uncomfortable. The pedestrians who had just left the station thought that they did not expect a light rain in Chengguang City today, so they did not bring umbrellas. After they got off the high-speed train, except for those who had family and friends to pick them up, the rest of the people basically went directly to the side of the road, calling for taxis in the drizzle.
Carrying a delicate suitcase, Yang Zixuan walked out of the exit of the high-speed rail, most of the boxes were her own change of clothes, and then there were some daily necessities in life.
Probably because she was wearing a khaki bucket hat on her head, she didn't feel the slightest drizzle in the sky at this time. She put down the suitcase in her hand, she felt a little cold just now, maybe she was a little tired after walking out of the high-speed rail, and the weather was stuffy, she raised her hand and tidied up her collar, which was also breathable.
This is Yang Zixuan's first time in Chengguang City, and everything here seems a little strange to her, who has never been here before.
After a short break, she pulled her phone out of her pocket and looked at it as it opened the address book. There were no contact information for a few people on it, so she found a contact named "Steward Zhang" in the list and edited a text message for him:
"Hello Steward Zhang, I have arrived in Chengguang City, where exactly is the location you are talking about?"
After Yang Zixuan edited the information and sent it over, soon the other party also came with a message:
"Okay, Miss Yang, I will send the specific address to your mobile phone later, please arrive on time according to the agreed time."
After reading the message sent by Steward Zhang, Yang Zixuan put away her mobile phone, picked up the suitcase containing her luggage again, and followed everyone else to the location on the side of the road, ready to take a taxi.
She wore a khaki fisherman's hat and a light khaki dress and crowded the crowd. I don't know why, after Steward Zhang notified himself a month ago, he told himself that all contact with himself after that would be carried out in text messages, and he could not make phone calls.
Finally called a car, Yang Zixuan loaded her suitcase into the trunk of the car, and sat in the back seat of the taxi. After she got into the car, Steward Zhang immediately sent the address where Yang Zixuan was going to her mobile phone, and after Yang Zixuan showed the address to the driver, the expression on the driver's face was full of shock and doubt.
"This is the former residence of Mr. Lin Shanhe, the founder of the Lin Group, you want to go here?"
"Yes, I'm sorry for you." Yang Zixuan replied politely.
"I heard that Mr. Lin Shanhe seems to have passed away at the end of the year three months ago, I don't know if you are his?" The driver realized that he might be a little presumptuous in speaking, and he wanted to take it back halfway through the sentence, but it seemed too late.
"Huh? Speaking of which, I must be her granddaughter. Yang Zixuan didn't think the driver was offended.
After a short conversation, the driver began to drive Yang Zixuan to the location Yang Zixuan just mentioned, which is the former residence villa of Mr. Lin Shanhe, the founder of the Lin Group.
Yang Zixuan, who was in the back of the taxi, leaned on the seat, still thinking about what Steward Zhang told him a month ago, to be honest, if it wasn't for Steward Zhang's call a month ago, he might never have come to Chengguang City in his life.
A month ago, Yang Zixuan, who was still in other cities, lived a life no different from ordinary people, at the age of 21, she was still a college student, and in addition to her usual homework, she had to go to various part-time jobs.
There is no way to say it, since she was born, she has been living with her grandmother, her parents are not by her side all the year round, and since she was a child, in Yang Zixuan's memory, the words "father" and "mother" have almost no concept in her mind. The only and last time I heard from my parents was when they were killed in a plane crash a few years ago. Since then, she has the impression that the only relatives left are her maternal grandmother. My grandmother usually did some handicrafts, and the two barely lived on a meager income. I don't have any impression of my grandfather.
This kind of life lasted until Zixuan was in college, because she rarely went home to see her grandmother when she went to college, so in addition to making a phone call to her grandmother every day, she usually didn't want to ask her old man for money.
Relying on the university scholarship and the usual part-time income, Yang Zixuan's college life is not a problem to eat and wear, and sometimes the extra money is sent back to her grandmother Yang Qing.
However, just a month ago, a person claiming to be Steward Zhang suddenly called him. The content of the call goes something like this:
Mr. Lin Shanhe, the founder of the Lin Group, passed away at the end of the year three months ago, and there is a legacy about him, Mr. Lin is placed in a place that only he knows. And Steward Zhang's job is to inform all Mr. Lin's relatives and let them arrive at his former villa on time three months after his death. The information about the inheritance is handed over to Steward Zhang, and he will arrange it according to Mr. Lin's last wishes, and whoever can finally solve the mystery left by Mr. Lin during his lifetime will finally get all the inheritance of Mr. Lin Shanhe. It was the last thing he would do for the old man.
Thinking about it, the old man was also lonely, and when he left at the end of the year, he didn't have any relatives around him except for Steward Zhang. This feeling of loneliness is something that no one can understand.
It was after putting down the phone call that Yang Zixuan learned that she had always had a maternal grandfather, but when she just learned the news, her maternal grandfather had passed away.
Afterwards, Zixuan called her grandmother Yang Qing and told Yang Qing about it. Later, Yang Qing did admit that Yang Zixuan did have a maternal grandfather, but for some reason, he and his maternal grandmother had to live away from them since childhood.
After obtaining her grandmother's consent, Yang Zixuan decided to agree to Steward Zhang's request and go to Chengguang City, where she had never been before. Meet the relatives you never remembered.
However, speaking of which, Yang Zixuan is not interested in the legacy left by Mr. Lin Shanhe, that is, his maternal grandfather. I just want to meet my grandfather, my grandmother's partner, whom I have never met. All you can see now is a black-and-white photograph.
Unconsciously, when I was thinking about these things, I accidentally fell asleep, and when I woke up, I woke up and found that the driver on the car woke me up, maybe I sat on the high-speed train for a long time, and I was a little tired.
After thanking the driver, Zixuan took out her handbag from the trunk. Looking up, the greenery around this villa is basically to the extreme, and this place is far away from the bustling heart of the city of Seongguang City. The air is exceptionally fresh, much fresher than when I first got off the high-speed train. There is also a mountain range in the distance, but the overall appearance of the mountain is blocked by the high-rise buildings not far away, and only one hill can be seen.
Maybe I was in the taxi for too long, and it was drizzling just now, but now it has stopped, but the ground is still a little wet.
The villa in front of him was magnificent and solemn, something he had never seen with his own eyes in his life. I didn't expect this to be where my grandfather lived. If that had happened, I would have known that I should have brought my grandmother with me. Maybe she'll be able to meet some of her other relatives. It's just that after looking at the villa as a whole, the strange thing is that there is only one street lamp in front of this villa, isn't it afraid that a street light will not be enough at night?
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yang Zixuan could imagine the living conditions of his maternal grandfather Lin Shanhe here before, but he was pitiful that the old man had no relatives around him before he died, only a housekeeper Zhang. I guess if my grandmother knew this, what would it be like in my heart.
There was not a single person at the door of the villa, not even a bird to be exact, and by the end of autumn they must have begun to fly south.
Under the khaki bucket hat, he wears a long skirt in light khaki. The touching face looks a little ruddy. Looking at it from a distance, the woman's back is beautiful in the green fairyland background. Especially her appearance, she was born to be the face of an angel in other people's mouths. The eyes are bright, and there is a sparkling look in them. The bridge of the nose is on stilts, just like the Shih Tzu of the world.
This should be the first time Yang Zixuan has dressed herself like this, how to say that the Lin Group is also a famous big family, if she dresses indecently, she doesn't care, mainly because she is afraid of losing her grandfather's face.
Thinking that she would meet some of her relatives in a while, Yang Zixuan's heart was still a little apprehensive, and she didn't know how to face it, after all, this was the first time she had met them. It's just that what I don't know is that since my grandfather is so rich, why does my grandmother have to be separated alone. And life is not too reasonable.
She had asked her grandmother this question, but she had never told her the answer in full. But I still know a little bit about it. His surname "Yang" follows his mother's surname, and his mother's surname follows his maternal grandmother's surname. It's always been Yang. My grandmother said that she would be able to come home one day.
Now a month ago, Steward Zhang didn't know how to contact him, so he asked himself to participate in this event about obtaining the inheritance of Mr. Lin Shanhe. This is only a descendant of the Lin family who can be eligible to participate. Maybe that's what my grandmother meant when she said "coming home".
Now, the villa is in front of her, and she knows that the moment she steps in, the whole story begins a prologue, what kind of secrets are hidden in the former residence of Shanhe, and what kind of person her grandfather is. These questions were a mess in Yang Zixuan's mind.
She took a step, approaching the villa little by little, approaching the mysterious former residence of mountains and rivers!
