- Xu Yishan has been feeling helpless since the third day after accepting the work arrangement from Secretary Huangshan.
He thought of Old Dong. Every time Lao Dong encountered a difficult problem, he could solve it for him.
The current Xu Yishan is a cadre with multiple positions. He is not only the deputy secretary and deputy mayor of Hongshan Town, but also the secretary-general of the economic reform team of the Maoshan County Party Committee.
This sudden promotion made him look even more complacent and full of ambition.
The tavern has closed down, so there is no suitable place for Xu Yishan and Lao Dong to have a few drinks.
Looking for a place in Maoshan County, Lao Dong's resources are unmatched.
After Xu Yishan made an appointment with Old Dong, Old Dong agreed without hesitation that he would arrange it.
The place where Old Dong took Xu Yishan was more hidden than the tavern. It's hidden in a back alley without even a signboard at the door.
This is the oldest street in Maoshan County. The street is not the concrete floor that can be seen everywhere, but is paved with blue bricks and stone slabs.
The stone slabs are already covered with moss, and green grass protrudes from the gaps.
The street is very narrow, and two people can touch the wall on the side of the street with their arms outstretched.
According to legend, this street was the property of the largest landlord in Maoshan.
The landlord's surname is Wu, and he has five sons.
Of the five sons, four joined the army. Three of them died on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War, and they were all officials at the rank of deputy division when they died.
When he was defeated that year, his two remaining sons persuaded him to go to the island, but Landlord Wu firmly refused. He stubbornly believes that his family is full of loyalty and meritorious service in the War of Resistance, and whoever dominates the world should be polite to him.
In fact, after the liberation of Maoshan County, he was the first person arrested.
At that time, the criticism meeting lasted for three days and three nights, and finally the old landlord was dragged to the river beach, where he was stabbed to death by the angry crowd with red tasseled guns.
The remaining two sons stayed in Maoshan County to welcome a new life because their father refused to leave, and they could not escape alone.
Although their fate was not as miserable as that of their father, it was not much better.
A son spent his whole life in prison, but his bones never returned to Maoshan. Another son, who had been herding cattle all his life, suddenly disappeared on a rainy day.
Old Landlord Wu's family was torn apart. Originally, there was only one family, the youngest daughter left.
Perhaps people saw her as a little girl, but no one touched her.
After Xu Yishan heard the old Dong tell this story, he asked with a half-smile: "You won't tell me that the person we are going to meet today is not a descendant of the old landlord?"
Old Dong smiled without saying a word, and sighed: "If you really want to taste good wine, you can come with me."
A small courtyard hidden behind a high wall, after Xu Yishan stepped in, he felt a little dazed.
He never thought that there would be such a clean and elegant place in Maoshan, a small closed county.
As soon as Old Dong entered the door, he shouted, "Grandma, I am a soldier, and I am here to see you."
Xu Yishan only heard the sound of the bead curtain, and an old man with white hair and youthful face appeared in front of his eyes.
She looked at the two of them demurely, with a kind smile on her face.
Old Dong hurried forward a few steps, trying to support her.
The old man waved his hand and said, "No, I'm not old enough to be helped. Yibing, it's been a long time since you came to see me, old lady."
Old Dong chuckled, and said, "Grandma, actually, my saliva has flowed down the basin. I dare not come, for fear of your hard work."
The old man smiled and said: "If you come, I will still dislike you? Little thing, who did you bring today?"
Old Dong quickly introduced Xu Yishan, saying: "Grandma, my brother is a capable person."
The old man smiled faintly, "What does it matter to me if I am capable or not? Yibing, since I am your friend, I should cook by myself. You can take your friend in and sit down."
Xu Yishan looked around and asked suspiciously: "Do you do business here?"
Old Dong shook his head and said: "You think too much. At my aunt's place, those who are destined can taste her amazing cooking skills without spending a penny. Those who are not destined have money piled as high as you. Don¡¯t even want to drink your saliva.¡±
Xu Yishan smiled and said, "Old Dong, how many secrets do you still keep from me?"
Old Dong said solemnly: "No more, this is my last place. As long as I am in a bad mood, I will feel like the clouds are clearing up when I sit here for a while. My aunt is a fairy-level figure. Really."
Xu Yishan said oh, but he didn't need to say it, he also?It can be felt that this old man, who is called aunt by old Dong, is not only hale and hearty, and walks lightly, but also has a ruddy complexion and silver hair, making people feel ethereal as if seeing a fairy.
This feeling seemed familiar, suddenly, he thought of the old monk Wuxiu in the Wuxiu Temple.
His feeling in Wuxiu Temple was the same as here. He only felt that his heart was clear, and all his troubles and worries disappeared.
Old Dong lowered his voice and said, "Do you know who the aunt is?"
Xu Yishan realized something: "Could it be that my aunt was left behind by the old landlord"
Old Dong hurriedly stopped him, nodded and said, "Amazing, isn't it?"
Xu Yishan asked curiously: "Old Dong, how did you know your aunt?"
Just as Old Dong was about to explain, a clear and clear voice suddenly came, "Grandma, are there any guests at home?"
People followed the sound, and before Xu Yishan and Lao Dong could react, a girl with bright eyes and bright teeth stood at the place where the door curtain was lifted.
She looked at the people in the room curiously, rolled her big eyes several times, and asked calmly, "Who are you?"
Old Dong reacted quickly, and said with a smile: "Are you Du Juan?"
The girl froze for a moment, as if searching for who Old Dong was in her memory.
Old Dong introduced himself: "I am your big brother in a soldier. Don't you remember me?"
Miss Du Juan looked him over carefully, and when she raised her lips, a smile spread out.
"So it's Big Brother Yibing, oh, you're getting old."
Old Dong said awkwardly: "I am so old, of course I am old. Du Juan, didn't you go abroad? When did you come back?"
The cuckoo came, and a faint fragrance wafted with her.
"I've only been back for a few days. I'm here to pick up grandma."
"Where are you taking my aunt?" Old Dong asked in surprise.
"The problem is, grandma doesn't want to leave here." Du Juan frowned slightly, and sighed: "I can't finish my task, and I will be scolded again when I go back."
Xu Yishan was so confused that he didn't know what they were talking about.
But he could feel that this girl named Du Juan didn't look like someone from Maoshan County at first glance.
Sure enough, under the introduction of Old Dong, Xu Yishan knew that Miss Du Juan now lives in the first country on the other side of the ocean and has become a Chinese-American.
And he also knows that Du Juan is a food expert and has already received a Ph.D.
While chatting, the old man brought some side dishes, and a delicate white bottle came into the room.
When Xu Yishan saw the bottle, his heart trembled inexplicably.
He seems to have known each other. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
