leaves Lijing on the Pearl River, Ye Chen hurried to the vegetable market.
A lot of time has been delayed. If we don't hurry up and buy the food back, my wife won't be able to have lunch when she comes home from work.
although Jinling is an ancient city, the atmosphere of modernization is getting stronger and stronger. The destruction, demolition, and renovation of buildings in the old city have now basically become the painting style of high-rise buildings in modern cities.
in the past, many traditional craftsmanship and markets have been gradually replaced by various high-end shops and integrated supermarkets.
in the early years, there were many barbers by the side of the road who were so good at shaving that they could sit by the side of the road and shave their heads for two or three yuan.
but by now, it's long gone.
is replaced by a variety of dazzling, high-end beauty salons, those poor craftsmanship, hair is not even full of teacher Tony, casually give people a haircut, is one or two hundred yuan to start, occasionally encounter immoral businesses, but also cheat customers to apply for cards, a haircut was cheated for thousands of yuan, everywhere.
before, there were many carriages and donkey carts by the side of the road. They were all rural farmers who picked vegetables from the fields in the morning and then drove to the city to sell them. Vegetables and fruits were both fresh and cheap.
however, animal carts are no longer allowed to enter the city these years, and there are fewer and fewer traditional vegetable markets, so that most people can only go to the supermarket to buy vegetables.
the quality of vegetables in the supermarket is not good, but the price is surprisingly expensive. It costs more than ten yuan to buy a cabbage casually.
this also makes the ancient city gradually lose the fireworks smell of traditional life.
in fact, Ye Chen usually doesn't like to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables, so he always feels less interesting.
so he often goes to a protected old residential area in the old city, where there is a very lively vegetable market.
likes to go to that old residential area, not only because it is more approachable, but also because there is another reason hidden in Ye Chen's heart, who did not tell anyone.
before, when he and his parents first arrived in Jinling, their parents especially liked the characteristics of the old city of Jinling.
there are many old-fashioned buildings left over from the Ming and Qing dynasties and the Republic of China. This architectural style is very different from that of the north, and parents like it very much.
because of his love of traditional culture, his parents rented an old house in the old city. After his father's renovation, the family lived very comfortably.
later, when his parents had an accident and Ye Chen went to the orphanage, he would often sneak out with his buddies Zhao Hao and Li Xiaofen to have a look here in the old city.
at that time, Zhao Hao and Li Xiaofen thought Ye Chen was playful and wanted to sneak out to play.
but what they don't know is that Ye Chen is just trying to miss her parents.
after his parents' accident, the house was rented out for a few more years, changing batch after batch of tenants.
later, the house was bought by people who invested in real estate and waited for the demolition to appreciate.
later, the house and nearby old buildings were designated as a historic building reserve, and demolition and flip were prohibited, so the house remained vacant for a long time.
Ye Chen also asked quietly that the person who invested in the house was said to be the initiator of a real estate speculation group in Wencheng. Although the old house could not be cashed out in his hands, it was nothing to him, so the house was thrown like this all the time.
later, the real estate speculator was involved in a lawsuit because he was suspected of illegally raising funds outside the city, and the house was seized by the court.
it was rumored that it would be auctioned two or three years ago, but because that person was involved in a large case, he had not closed the case for the last two years, so he never entered the legal auction process.
Ye Chen went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, not far from this old house, so he planned to stop by and have a look.
on the way to Ye Chen by bike, a Rolls-Royce has stopped in front of this mottled old house.
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});
the copilot of Rolls-Royce walks down an old man who is the old housekeeper of the Yanjing du family in Jinling.
after the old housekeeper got out of the car, he quickly opened the door of the back seat and respectfully said to the woman sitting in the car, "second lady, here we are."
the woman sitting in the car is du Haiqing.
after she got off the plane, she first took a pair of sons and daughters and went back to the du family's old house with the old housekeeper. After settling her room and luggage, she hurriedly asked the old housekeeper to show her the place where Ye Changying had lived before she died.
as for Su Zhifei and Su Zhiyu, brother and sister, they each have their own plans.
Su Zhifei went to the welfare home to talk about donation, while Su Zhiyu, holding a laptop, continued to look for Ye Chen among thousands of portraits.
du Haiqing was happy, after all, to come to the house where Ye Changying, whom he loved all his life, lived before he died, with a pair of sons and daughters, which was more or less inappropriate.
du Haiqing was particularly nervous at this time.
although she knows that Ye Changying has been dead for many years, she can still feel a strong sense of tension when she comes here.
is like the years when I loved Ye Changying when I was young. Every time I saw him, or I was about to see him, my heart beat faster and my breath was short of breath.
with his heart beating wildly, du Haiqing got out of the car and looked at the small southern-style courtyard across the courtyard wall.
the stone wall of the courtyard is very low, and many hollowed-out shapes are made of green bricks in the middle, so that people can easily see the situation in the courtyard.
at this time, the yard was full of withered weeds and fallen branches and leaves, and the sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the yard had long withered into dry wood because they were left unattended.
there are large areas of dead wall-climbing tigers on the walls of the main body of the building.
the whole courtyard at this time is incomparably broken, but du Haiqing can imagine that if it is well maintained, when it is rainy in spring and summer, the courtyard must be lush, coupled with the grass and trees in the courtyard, the scenery must be yearning.
moreover, although the courtyard is not big, we can see that although the courtyard is small, the architecture is very elegant.
Green bricks make walls, green tiles build roofs, and bluestones pave roads.
it is humid in summer in the south. If it rains, the green bricks and bluestones must be covered with moss.
the moss itself has a very natural sense of old age. For those who do not like it, the moss is dense, greasy and somewhat disgusting to the touch.
but for those who like the ancient oriental culture, this is a very poetic and Zen creature.
whether growing in the courtyard, or on the fence, by the pond, or in the bonsai, there is a unique delicacy and seclusion.
therefore, moss has always been popular with writers and writers.
at this moment, this dilapidated courtyard, in du Haiqing's eyes, has restored the scene and charm of Ye Changying's residence.
in her mind, she even imagined the handsome young Ye Changying playing with his children in this yard. Fascinated by
, du Haiqing felt that Ye Changying was really in the yard, and the little boy who could not see his face, his son, was circling around him.
then the shabby, closed door opened, and out came a woman with a dignified and beautiful face, a tall figure and an apron around her waist.
the woman smiled and beckoned father and son to come into the house for dinner, and the scene of the harmony of a family of three was admirable.
du Haiqing, who was caught up in his imagination, looked closely at the past and saw clearly the woman's appearance.
the woman in her imagination is not Ye Changying's original wife, but du Haiqing herself!tion between right and wrong, I overmeasured my strength, and I uttered wild words to frustrate Mr. Ye's parents.at this point, Wan Bengjun bowed his head and choked up to a little trembling and said,...
