Beijing, East 46 Hutongs.

The area of Dongsi and Dengshikou is north of Wangfujing, east of Jingshan, west of Chaoyang Gate and Guomao in CBD.

In the capital, it is the core of the core.

Since the Qing Dynasty, it has been a place of dignitaries, with many palaces and prime ministers' mansions.

During the Republic of China, there were countless cultural and social celebrities who lived here.

A huge capital is striding forward in the direction of modernization, the old buildings are almost demolished, and many places that have witnessed history can not even be found now.

For example, the East Fourth Archway, the West Fourth Archway, Chaoyangmen Wharf.......

This area is one of the few old hutongs, which is considered to be a relatively well-preserved place for old buildings, although it has also undergone several rounds of renovation, but the general style has been preserved, and the courtyard houses are lined up next to each other.

Most of them are large courtyards and old husbands' houses shared by many people, and each family is divided into a single room of seven or eight square meters, and more than ten square meters are spacious.

A few are privately owned, and in a few years the price will skyrocket, and one set will be worth hundreds of millions.

Of course, there are also some courtyard houses with closed doors that look low-key and mysterious.

These are complete and independent architectural mansions, and it can be seen from their tall doors that the owners of the mansions were extraordinary.

Now the iron door is locked, only occasionally opened, in and out of some iUn brand cars, the door is opened by young Wu Yiing.

Occasionally, people passing by here can only sigh and marvel, and they don't know who lives inside.

One evening, a white sedan drove into the alley.

Since the alley was built in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the builders obviously did not reserve a place for the car, which was very narrow, and there were bicycles and other sundries in some places, so the car could only pass.

The car stopped in front of a mansion with an iron gate, and the driver opened the door and got out of the car.

The driver turned out to be a beautiful woman with long hair fluttering, wearing a white T-shirt on the upper body, a pair of blue jeans on the bottom, and a pair of white board shoes, looking young and beautiful.

It was Lin Duxue.

"Hey, it's Twilight Xue who came to see grandpa, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're handsome again." The aunt next door said with a smile.

"Hello Aunt Zhang, you've been busy with school lately, have you retired from the National gUan Bureau?"

"I finally retired last month, I knew that I wouldn't have done this deputy inspector of Raushzi, I don't have to retire until I am 60 years old, my sister 55 will retire, and if I don't retire, my son will complain about me, and the whole family is counting on me to take my grandson." Aunt said with a smile.

"Okay, you'll come over often in the future."

"Well, let's go, I saw that your parents have already arrived."

Lin Duxue rang the doorbell, and a young man in civilian clothes opened the door.

This is a deep and quiet courtyard, Lin Duxue crossed the Danqi, passed through the wall, and after entering, she came to the main hall.

I met two or three people along the way, both men and women, Lin Duxue greeted them warmly, they were the staff members around my grandfather, and they were busy in the kitchen at the moment.

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is an important festival according to the lunar calendar, and grandfather Lin Lao also attaches great importance to it, and holds a family banquet as usual in the evening.

Lin Lao usually lives in Beijing and Pengcheng.

When it's cold, go south, and generally return to the capital after Qingming and before the Dragon Boat Festival.

The summer in the south is too hot and humid for the elderly to stand it.

The last time Liang Jiangtao met Lin Duxue, she went to Pengcheng to come back with her grandfather, but she didn't tell Liang Jiangtao so clearly.

Lin Duxue walked into the main hall, a thin and dignified old man sat on the sofa in the main seat, and two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, were talking with him.

Seeing Lin Duxue coming in, the old man immediately smiled: "Xue Xue is back, come to grandpa's side!" ”

He is Lin Duxue's grandfather Lin Lao, who is almost ninety years old and has been revolutionary all his life, but when he opens his mouth at this time, he is just an old man who loves his granddaughter.

Lin Duxue stepped forward quickly, sat on the sofa next to the old man, snuggled up to the old man, and said, "Grandpa, you haven't been feeling well lately, have you?" I asked someone to get some wormwood in Yangling, Xi'an, you can try it. ”

Lin Lao was a "red ghost" who participated in the Long March back then, and although he was in good health, he also had more than a dozen injuries.

Every year in the fifth month of the lunar calendar, the most serious attack must be treated with wormwood.

"Thank you to my good grandson, with your heart, grandpa will be much more comfortable." Lin Lao said with a smile.

This living room is more than 60 square meters, but the furniture is very old, and there is no trace of modernity at all, and only a TV set covered with a white cloth is considered a "new weapon".

There are a lot of photos of Lin Lao hanging around, there are group photos, there are personal photos, and some of the people who took photos with him are the founding fathers of the world!

The photos are photos of various periods, the earliest is the Yan An period, Lin Lao is heroic, and there is a young and beautiful woman standing next to her, also wearing a blue military uniform, and Lin Duxue is a little similar between her eyebrows and eyes, she is Yan Duxue's grandmother, who has passed away a few years ago.

Then after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Lin Lao was wearing a military uniform, his temples were slightly white, the seniority badges and medals on his chest were shining, and the gold stars on his shoulders were dazzling.

55 years of conferring the title is a general!

After that, the stars in the military uniform on the photo were gone, all with red collar badges, and Lin Lao's face was a little old.

Later, after the reform and opening up, Lin Lao traveled in casual clothes.

If you look closely, this is simply a real historical record, like a living fossil.

"Where have you been going crazy these past few days, I haven't seen you for so many days since I returned to Beijing!"

The woman sitting next to her spoke, she looked like she was in her early forties, dressed in coffee-colored professional clothes, and her figure was as tall and slender as Lin Duxue.

She has a beautiful face, a heroic spirit between her eyebrows and eyes, and gold-rimmed glasses.

It's just that the brows are tightly locked, giving people a cold feeling.

She is Lin Duxue's mother Ye Feng.

Lin Duxue looked a little afraid of her, her eyes moved, and she said, "School has been too busy lately, I ......"

"What's so busy? Now that they're about to graduate, what are you still busy with? I think you're deliberately avoiding me! Why did you go to Handong without me? Ye Feng asked sharply.

It turned out that Ye Feng didn't know about Lin Duxue going to the Organization Department of the Handong Provincial Party Committee before!
