After a while, I heard the sound of "clucking" high heels stepping on the floor in the corridor.

This old house is still a floor slab.

I looked around the sound, and in the middle of the hall was the wooden ladder going upstairs, and on the left and right sides were the aisles, and on both sides of the aisles were rows of houses.

It is a very typical structure of buildings in the previous Republic of China.

As the footsteps got closer and closer, a woman finally appeared at the end of the escalator on the second floor.

She was dressed in gray business attire, with a long-sleeved shirt and gray trousers, and was about thirty-five years old.

Medium-long hair, permed with slightly curly small curls, with a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, and an ordinary appearance.

This figure is obviously not as brilliant as the woman in the long white dress I just saw.

When she saw us standing in the doorway, she immediately smiled professionally and walked briskly towards us.

"Tell me which media you belong to?"

"Oh, we are doing self-media, and we mainly do some reports on some accomplished experts in the medical field."

"Oh, that's right! We only got the news this morning, and we didn't expect this to happen. ”

Secretary Wang's expression darkened, she glanced at us, and didn't seem to think that we were bad people, so she waved her hand and said:

"Come with me, let's go upstairs to the office and talk!"

"Okay, I'm sorry for you!" I laughed.

So Zhang Yi and I glanced at each other and followed.

Stepping on the wooden staircase, squeaked upstairs.

Zhang Yi lost no time in chatting with Secretary Wang:

"Secretary Wang, you guys have a little year in this building!"

"Yes, this is a house during the Republic of China, it should be eighty or ninety years! The first floor is paved with tiles, and only the second floor is still wooden. But the main building, our dean has not been allowed to move. So it's all the same as before. ”

"Oh, in fact, this feels pretty good, it's very historical, it has a sense of age, and we young people should come to places like this more often to visit and study."

Zhang Yi kept turning his head and turned around to look at me while squeezing his eyebrows at me.

It means to see if he behaves well or not!

I gave him a wide eye, and signaled that he should not be too ostentatious, lest he show his feet and be ridiculed.

Of course, Secretary Wang saw that the handsome guy took the initiative to get close, so he also let down his guard and began to talk eloquently.

"The four floors below our main building are home to children of different ages and generations.

On the fifth floor are the administrative offices and the dean's office. Then there are two buildings outside, one is a canteen, a restaurant, a recreation room, or something, and the other is mainly a dormitory for some guest rooms and staff. ”

She introduced Zhang Yi as she walked, as if the two of them immediately became acquaintances.

I followed behind stupidly, listening to them, looking here and then from time to time.

Of course, when I was looking around with my eyes open, I didn't like to talk to people.

So it just so happened that Zhang Yi could help me drag Secretary Wang, so that I could do my own thing.

The three of us just walked and chatted, and walked around the main building of the welfare home.

I suddenly felt that I was very smart, my brain was spinning fast, and I was pretending to be a reporter from the media, and it seemed that these places were quite friendly to reporters.

In addition, Zhang Yi still has the ability to coax girls.

Going up to the second floor, there is a row of corridors facing out on each floor, and you can see the view of the courtyard from the corridor.

As the floors got higher and higher, so did the yellow cypress tree.

Throughout the corridors and corridors, you can smell the faint smell of yellow cypress railings in the air.

In fact, there is a big yellow cypress tree outside my house, but it is not as big as this one, and its aroma seems to be suppressed a lot in that scorching environment.

Far from being in the mountains with fresh air, you can quietly feel the pleasure brought by this aroma.

We walked around before slowly going up to the fifth floor, Zhang Yi and Secretary Wang seemed to have a hot fight, and the two were talking and laughing.

Secretary Wang led us to the left side of the corridor.

I stood in the middle of the hallway, looking at the place in the courtyard where I had just stood on the yellow cypress tree, and it seemed that the white figure appeared on the right side of the hallway.

I glanced to the right, and I wasn't sure to go there alone.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Secretary Wang shout: "Come in, this is my office!" ”

I answered, and walked to an office on the left side of the hallway.

The doors of these offices are still old-fashioned green wooden doors with wooden block signs nailed to the doors.

In view of Zhang Yi's current relationship with Secretary Wang, the two of us didn't seem to have anything to do, so we walked into the secretary's office generously.

This office is about ten square meters, but it is really classic, and all the furnishings are quite retro and warm.

Republican ornaments can be seen everywhere, such as the swinging wall clock on the wall, the old-fashioned desk calendar on the table, and the brown leather sofa with woolen handrails.

In the middle of the room was a desk, also dark brown, with a glass lens pressed on it, and various photographs underneath.

Next to the table was a small chest of drawers with some wooden picture frames and an old-fashioned radio.

"Secretary Wang, you're working on a retro exhibition hall here!" I couldn't help but say a compliment.

Because this room is really very tonal.

"Ha, due to the environment here, almost all of our rooms here are in this tone, and every room here is arranged by our dean himself. We just need to use it!

Of course, each of these objects is really quite delicate and perfect, and all of our staff couldn't fault anything. ”

"Oh? It seems that the dean is really a particular person! I asked with interest.

"That's not it, our dean has been working here for sixty years, so he should be quite emotional!"

"Sixty years?" Zhang Yi and I couldn't help but exclaim!

"yes, I think I've been here since I was born......"

Secretary Wang glanced at us, as if realizing that the topic was a little far away, and then she stood up again, walked quickly to the chest of drawers and took out two cups.

"Do you drink tea or coffee?" She smiled kindly at us.

"It's all right, it's all right!" I immediately snorted haha.

Then I looked around again and saw a row of photo walls on the right-hand wall.

I walked around with interest to take a look or two, and I just swept it so casually, and sure enough, I found a photo of Zhou Shiqi.

In the photo, he is wearing a white shirt and standing next to an elderly woman, who has white hair and a noble and elegant temperament......

"Isn't this Dean Zhou?" Zhang Yi saw that I was staring at a photo, and he also looked for it.

The people on the photo wall of "Yes...... are all orphans from us, and of course they are some characters with heads and faces.

Secretary Wang smiled, which also meant that this was a propaganda wall.

It shows that the children in the welfare home have been taken care of very well, and they have even cultivated such excellent talents for the society.

As soon as I got in, I sat down at the couch and said:

"Then Secretary Wang, can you tell us about Dean Zhou? He grew up here! ”
