Chapter 110: Doing as the Locals Follow
When Yang Yi took Lin Feng back to the ancestral object, it was already early in the morning.
According to Grandpa, the Yang family was one of the first pioneers to come to the Bone Star. At that time, the Bone Star was not only rich in natural resources, but also had a very good ecological environment, and there were few colonists. In order to encourage foreign expansion, the federal authorities implemented a "first-come, first-served" right of possession, so thousands of years ago, when Morigaoka was a small town with a population of less than 1,000, the Yang family was a well-known landowner. It's just that in the following thousands of years, the Yang family gradually declined because of the withering of people, and Yang Yi's generation was reduced to a commoner. In addition to the stories that are embarrassing to tell, the only thing that has reached him is this dilapidated ancestral house located in the suburbs.
Strictly speaking, this ancestral building is not an inheritance at all, but a negative asset.
In Bones, as long as the house is occupied, they have to pay property tax every year according to the government's assessed value, which is a big burden for many families.
The ancestral house is a large villa with a front yard and a back garden.
In Grandpa's words, this is the Yang family's foothold in the Bone Burial Star, where dozens of generations were born, and they have the obligation to pass on the Yang family's incense.
It's just that Yang Yi doesn't think so.
Although by his generation, the Yang family has been passed down for hundreds of generations, but the so-called former residence is nothing more than a house without life and emotion. If it weren't for Grandpa's insistence, and the Yang family still had the final say in him, I'm afraid that Yang Yi would have disposed of this villa before joining the army. Not to mention anything else, as long as you apply for disposal, you can pay tens of thousands of less property taxes every year, and this money is enough to rent an apartment in the city center for grandparents and grandchildren.
The gate was unlocked and the villa was empty.
Although it hasn't changed much, after entering, Yang Yi can see at a glance that in the past six months, grandpa's life has not been very good. Among other things, the empty wine bottles piled up in the corners of the hall are the best proof of this. Although drinking is the only hobby in his grandfather's life, when Yang Yi is there, he often nagged a few words, so he was restrained. After Yang Yi joined the army, no one nagged in his ears, and there was no control.
Smelling the smell of wine in the air, Yang Yi sighed secretly.
Lin Feng was a little embarrassed, feeling that it was a wrong decision to buy wine for Yang Yi's grandfather.
"I'll go up and take a look, don't walk around, it's a bit messy at home......"
"Who dares to trespass on a private house?"
Before Yang Yi walked away, there was a scolding sound from upstairs, but the words were vague, as if he hadn't woken up, or as if he had been drunk.
Then, a man staggered down the hallway.
Seeing this situation, Yang Yi's head became even bigger.
This person is about one meter nine tall, half a head taller than Yang Yi, except for a white hair, he doesn't look like a hundred-year-old man. The figure is not burly, nor does it look thin. If there is any characteristic, it is similar to Yang Yi, and you can see the relationship with Yang Yi at a glance.
It is Yang Yi's grandfather Yang Chengzhi.
"Old fellow, it's rare to get up so early, and you drank too much last night?"
"Little thing, it turned out to be you, and I also meant to be a thief."
The grandfather and grandson didn't have anything to say when they met, and Lin Feng was stunned when he saw it, I don't know if they are grandchildren, maybe they were enemies in their previous lives.
At this time, Yang Chengzhi's eyes fell on Lin Feng, looking judgmental.
"What are you looking at, old fellow?"
"This little beauty ......"
"Your future granddaughter-in-law."
Yang Chengzhi was stunned again, and then laughed.
Lin Feng was even more embarrassed, although Yang Chengzhi's gaze made her feel very uncomfortable, but she could feel that Yang Chengzhi had no malicious intent.
"Little thing, I haven't learned anything else, I learned your grandfather's ability to pick up girls when he was young."
Yang Yi rolled his eyes, and Lin Feng buried his head even more. Now, she finally understands where Yang Yi learned his kung fu of talking nonsense when he opened his mouth.
"Old fellow, just stand like this, and don't say hello?"
"This isn't your home? I haven't woken up yet, so I'm going to go up and get some sleep. There's food in the kitchen, you can do it, don't bother me if it's okay. ”
Without waiting for Yang Yi to answer, Yang Chengzhi turned around and went upstairs.
"Don't be surprised, that's all he does." Yang Yi was very embarrassed, no matter what, Lin Feng came to his house for the first time.
"It's okay, grandpa is really temperamental."
"Don't say that, if you let him know, your ass will have to go up to the sky." Yang Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. "I'm not afraid that you don't believe it, sometimes I wonder if he is my real grandfather. If it weren't for the looks, I would have suspected that it was the wild child he had picked up. ”
Having said that, Yang Yi didn't leave Lin Feng cold, and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Although the Yang family has long been in the middle, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. As far as Yang Yi knows, before he joined the army, his grandfather had been selling his property to get by.
The breakfast wasn't huge, but it wasn't too bad.
After the meal, Yang Yi took Lin Feng around.
The villa is huge, with the front yard covering hundreds of square meters and the back garden twice as large as the front yard. It's a pity that because no one takes care of it, the flowers and plants planted have long since withered. All the way down, Lin Feng was also secretly frightened. Flowers and plants may wither, but the paths paved with precious stones, the beautifully carved guardrails, and the pavilions have survived. It can be seen that the Yang family in its heyday was not only rich, but also very tasteful.
It's just that flowers are not red for 100 days, and people are not good for 100 days.
Far from it, in the five thousand years of the Third Age, there were countless big families that fell and fell. Even the few big families that are now in full swing can be traced back to the Fifth Greenwich War thousands of years ago, and the families that have been thriving and powerful for thousands of years are simply rare.
In fact, after thousands of years of evolution, everyone in the Human Federation is a descendant of a once glorious family. Take Lin Feng as an example, although the current Lin family was built by his grandfather Lin Xiaoting, but going back to the past, the ancestors of the Lin family were the pioneers of the Human Federation, that is, one of the first human survivors to escape from the "Annihilation Disaster" and come to the Southern Alpha Galaxy.
As for the reason for the decline of the Yang family, Lin Feng was not interested.
There is no need to figure out the law that no one can change if the prosperity is great. After the heyday of any big family, it will go downhill. The difference is only that some big families can prosper, some big families can barely maintain the generation, and some big families will die out soon.
In any case, the Yang family did not die, and the appearance of Yang Yi brought hope to ZTE.
When the two returned to the villa, Yang Chengzhi had woken up and was having breakfast in the restaurant.
"Old fellow, you know how to enjoy it."
Breakfast was made by Yang Yi, but what Yang Chengzhi cared about was the bottles of wine that Lin Feng bought. drank two glasses early in the morning, which was regarded by Yang Chengzhi as a happy event in life.
"Little thing, it's good, and a little filial piety." As he spoke, Yang Chengzhi poured a cup for Yang Yi.
"This is Xiaofeng's filial piety to your old man."
"Really?" Yang Chengzhi smiled and nodded at Lin Feng. Compared with before, his attitude is much kinder, and he has the appearance of an elder.
Lin Feng was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Tell me, what's the matter with coming back?" Yang Chengzhi didn't beat around the corner, and he was also the kind of straightforward character.
Yang Yi sighed secretly and said, "It's nothing, just come back and take a look." Although your old man's tenacious vitality is comparable to that of a cockroach, you will be lonely and lonely without any company. To be honest, you should find a wife to live with, and someone will control you. ”
"Well, it's not your turn to worry about my business."
"If you don't let me worry about it, you can drink less." As he spoke, Yang Yi snatched the wine glass from Yang Chengzhi's hand.
"Little thing, you are so bold that you dare to rob me of my wine."
"Old guy, don't care about you for half a year, even I'm not afraid?"
……
As he spoke, the grandfather and grandson started to fight, not to fight, but to grab wine bottles and glasses. Because he had already known him before, Lin Feng was not surprised. It's just that Lin Feng can see that the movements of Yang Chengzhi's hands are not slow. Although Yang Yi didn't exert his strength, as a soldier, Yang Yi's reaction was much faster than ordinary people. After some fighting, Yang Yi only barely took the advantage and did not let Yang Chengzhi take away the wine bottle.
Could it be that Yang Chengzhi is also a soldier?
Lin Feng was secretly surprised, and he was also paying attention. Although I can't see through Yang Chengzhi, one thing is certain, Yang Chengzhi doesn't have an original energy converter.
If he wasn't a soldier, how could he react so quickly?
"Okay, you kid has hard bones, and he is so disrespectful to your grandfather."
"Old fellow, this is for your own good."
Yang Chengzhi rolled his eyes and said, "Whether it's good or not, I know it myself." Forget it, I'm old, and I can't compare to you young people. ”
Yang Yi shook his head with a wry smile and put the wine bottle on the table.
"Say, how many days are you going to stay when you come back this time? Don't say you won't leave, I've worked hard for 18 years, and finally pulled you into an adult, and I haven't had enough comfortable days. ”
"I'll leave later."
Yang Chengzhi was slightly stunned and said, "Don't stay for a few more days, is there something urgent?" ”
Yang Yi nodded and said, "Actually, I came back this time for a few things. ”
Seeing Yang Yi's serious expression, Yang Chengzhi's brows jumped a few times, and then he said to Lin Feng: "This is ......"
"Lin Feng, our captain, is now my girlfriend." Yang Yi introduced Lin Feng.
"Yes, you kid has a vision." Yang Chengzhi smiled and said, "Little girl, the Yang family is like this, which makes you feel wronged." ”
"Grandpa is humble." Lin Fengzhen didn't know how to deal with it.
"Of course, follow the customs of the locals, and since you are here, you have to abide by the customs here."
Lin Feng was slightly stunned, not understanding what Yang Chengzhi meant.
"According to the custom, after you marry into the Yang family, you have to cook a meal for the elders, indicating that you have become a member of the family. Although you haven't married Yang Yi yet, since you're here, you have to do it according to custom. Besides, no one can say when you will get married. ”
Yang Chengzhi said it seriously, but Lin Feng felt that he said this in order to take himself away.
It's just that Lin Feng doesn't know the custom of burying bone stars, and Yang Chengzhi has no malice in taking her away, he just wants to talk to Yang Yi alone.
