Chapter 0005 Lao Tang Lane ()

Standing in the courtyard, Tang Sheng looked at this old-fashioned courtyard house. There were two giant willow trees in the courtyard, three main rooms, and two old-style window lattice on the upper and lower floors. The upper one was decorated with white linen paper window grilles, and the lower one was decorated with window grilles.

The first floor is made of glass, the door and window frames are oiled in vermilion, the uneven and cracked main pillars reveal a taste of vicissitudes of life, and the main building structure of large blue bricks is particularly ancient.

Tang Sheng knew that such an old house no longer had any ability to withstand earthquakes. If there was a magnitude 3 or 4 earthquake, it might collapse. The east, west and south rooms were all ancient buildings lower than the main house.

, they are all very old.

An old man with a gray head and white hair walked out of the main hall, with a trace of dignity on his dark brown and wrinkled old face.

"You are the boy who came to Gangneung to study, right? What's your name?"

"Hello, Mr. Tang...it's me, my name is Tang Sheng."

There was no special change in expression on Mr. Tang's face. He raised the cane in his hand and pointed towards the south room. "The south room has been cleared out. You can just live there. The rules in the yard are to come back to the front door after ten o'clock in the evening."

It must be locked. Don't come back after this point. You can take care of yourself such as eating. My old man doesn't have the energy to serve you. I don't have anything else to do..."

"Thank you, old man, please rest. I understand."

Mr. Tang obviously didn't have a good impression of the boy whom his son Tang Yu sent to study, and his good looks didn't help.

"Also...the east and west rooms have been rented out. Don't disturb others. If you violate the rules of the courtyard, don't blame the old man. I will kick you out. It's strange. Tang Yu is willing to help you find connections in Jiangling."

Zhidao, why are you allowed to live in Lao Tang Lane again?"

"Don't get me wrong, my cousin and I don't know each other. It's just that my dad knows my cousin, so he asked him to help me study in Gangneung."

Saying this made it easier for Mr. Tang to accept it. He glanced at Tang Sheng again, then turned and went back to the house.

Tang Sheng smiled bitterly. It was similar to what he remembered when he came to Lao Tang Lane. Although he couldn't remember the specific details, it was roughly like this. He turned and entered the south house. It was not a completely shady house.

The window faces the street.

It’s not like you have to suffer in order to realize the ‘value’ of your journey. You’ve already suffered enough.

I walked around the house and found a long and narrow room of only three square meters outside. Inside was a large room of seven or eight square meters. There was a big window on the south side, so I could see the sun, but the street was right across the window.

Even the slightest movement will affect your night's rest.

There is a large kang with a stove on the east side, where you can light a fire for heating or boiling water for cooking. In the winter, if you don’t light a fire, you will freeze to death. On one side of the kang, there are several rolls of blankets, which are old peony dough balls.

Cotton quilts and mattresses are relatively rare these days.

In that life, Tang Sheng had never lived here. He just took a look and called Tang Yu to ask for a change of place. Later, he stayed here again to entangle Tang Jin, but he never slept here for a night.

This south room is a temporary resting place.

Tang Sheng threw his luggage next to the pile of quilts at the end of the kang, and looked at the small south room again. For Tang Jin, I have to live here. Fortunately, it's not winter yet. At worst, it will be winter.

Now that the kang fire is ready, we can't add an iron stove.

On the first day he came to Lao Tang Alley, he saw Tang Jin. He was so excited that he couldn't describe it in words. Unfortunately, he couldn't talk to her.

After deciding to live in this Nanxia room, Tang Sheng took out his cell phone and dialed his father's cell phone.

"Dad, I've arrived in Gangneung and I've settled down. Have you sorted out the transfer procedures in school?"

It turns out that Tang Yu was not asked to intervene in these matters, but that Secretary Tang sent someone else to do it. His majestic voice came from the end of the line, "...I have taken care of it all for you. Can you take the initiative to send me to Jiangling to study?

It’s a sign of progress, but let me tell you, being in Jiangling is no better than Nanfeng, the provincial capital. If you want to practice self-reliance, it’s as if you don’t have me as a father in Jiangling. I’m also busy with work. Don’t call me in the future. Even if you call me

I won't answer it, and Tang Yu won't do anything to help you. Don't expect to live like a young master here..."

"Dad, I'm willing to take the initiative just to train myself. Don't worry."

"Well, if you have nothing else to do, just hang up. I will ask Secretary Li to contact you..."

The first brief conversation with his father after time travel ended. To Tang Sheng, his father's voice was so kind and distant, but the voice was so real. The feeling of living again was so wonderful. I want to cherish this opportunity.

Must be cherished.

Even at this moment, Tang Sheng felt an urgent desire to see his father, but he still held back.

In a daze, he felt a little unreal. He raised his hand and slapped himself lightly. Well, it hurt a little.

In my mind, I still have the scene of me paying homage in front of my father's 'tombstone'. Well, I can't think about it. My dear dad is alive and well. How about paying homage to me? It would be unfilial to pay homage again. Well, just forget about it.

It was just a dream.

Everything starts again from here. Dad has never died, never has. It was just a 'dream' I had.

And Tang Jin, she didn't either... It was just a dream, a very advanced dream. I just woke up from the dream now.

While my thoughts were in confusion, my cell phone rang. I took it out and answered it. It was Li Chongfeng, my father's secretary.

"...Tang Sheng, are you here? I have time now, so I can go over and find you. Just tell me the location."

"I'm in Lao Tang Alley. Come to the outer street of Lao Tang Alley. There is a small restaurant on the south side of the road. Let's meet there."

"Okay, okay, I'll rush there soon, that's it, we'll talk about it when we meet..."

Tang Sheng walked out of Old Tang Alley and found the small restaurant not far from the outer street where he had an appointment with Secretary Li. It was already past one in the afternoon. Tang Sheng had not eaten yet, and Secretary Li had not eaten either. This person was his father's full-time employee.

Secretary Li Chongfeng.

Li Chongfeng is from Nanfeng and came to Jiangling with Secretary Tang. He looks like he is in his early thirties, wears glasses, is polite and well-educated, is meticulously dressed, has a 37-year-old hair and is slicked back, and is very energetic.

appearance.

He has a family in Nanfeng, the provincial capital, and his wife is also a government employee, but she did not come to Jiangling with him this time and took care of the children at home.

Like most successful people, Li Chongfeng also carries a black wallet, which contains some important documents and mobile phones.

Tang Sheng and Li Chongfeng were very familiar with each other. Li Chongfeng was very familiar with this second-generation eldest son as early as in Nanfeng.

The two of them didn't talk much when they met. They just looked at each other and smiled, and then entered the small restaurant one after another. Li Chongfeng didn't take this second generation ancestor seriously in his heart, because this kid talked like farting in front of his father, trying to please him.

He was of no use at all. It would be better to make Secretary Tang happy by making small reports about him in front of his father, so Li Chongfeng did not show any humility in front of Tang Sheng.

In fact, Tang Sheng in that life had never used this Li Chongfeng at all. He knew that the man named Li did not take him seriously. The main problem was his father. I hated his son as much as iron could not make steel. He was surrounded by

Can anyone look squarely at the young master?

"Tang Sheng, this is the transfer certificate for entering Gangneung High School. You don't need to worry about the rest. It's all done. You can just report it directly."

Tang Sheng took the notice from Li Chongfeng, glanced at it, folded it and put it in his pocket.

"In addition, Secretary Tang asked me to tell you that you should not call him or me unless there are special circumstances. If you are going to cause any trouble, you must be aware of the consequences and responsibility. This must be made clear. You

Do you understand?"

Li Chongfeng's tone of voice was pretending to be cold. He knew this second generation ancestor too well. He was like a frightened mouse in front of his father. He trembled when he spoke. He always called himself Uncle Li, even smiling at him.

As if he was afraid of offending himself.

But when he saw Tang Sheng today, Li Chongfeng found that the child seemed to have become a little deeper and seemed to be incomprehensible?

Tang Sheng pulled the dishes on the plate with chopsticks and suddenly looked up at Li Chongfeng, "...Secretary Li, I won't call you under normal circumstances, but if I call you, you'd better answer it as soon as possible.

Get up, there are some things you can't afford to miss."

Li Chongfeng was startled and looked at Tang Sheng with a frown. Why did this guy's tone change? He was no longer tough at times.

"...Tang Sheng, didn't I just tell you that Secretary Tang didn't allow me to answer your call..."

Tang Sheng stood up with a cry, glared at Li Chongfeng with a cold face, and slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table.

"You don't have to answer, but I'm telling you now, the consequence will be that you will disappear from Secretary Tang. If you don't believe me, try it!"

After saying that, Tang Sheng didn't look at him again, turned around and walked out of the small restaurant, leaving Li Chongfeng sitting there alone and wondering, hey... When did this kid become strong? Didn't he take the wrong medicine? What are you doing?

Are you kidding me? I don’t believe this is evil.

Li Chongfeng also got up angrily, paid the bill, and came out with his small bag. From far away, he could still see Tang Sheng walking alone along the roadside. Let's see. Boy, you don't have to be afraid of me, but you

It was destined to be impossible to find the palm of Secretary Tang's hand.

The Passat on the roadside was driven by Li Chongfeng. He got into the car with a cold snort, started it and left quickly.

The reason why Tang Sheng beat him was because in his memory, Li Chongfeng was later coerced and lured into betraying the interests of the Tang family. He had scruples in his heart about such a person, so he could speak rudely to him and would not go with him now.

After all, he doesn't have the guts to betray Secretary Tang's interests now. His little wings are far from reaching a certain level of hardness. They are still far from it.

As he walked slowly into the alley, Tang Sheng thought about everything that was going to happen in Lao Tang Alley.

I missed a lot in that life, watched a lot with a cold eye, and regretted a lot more than ten or twenty years later. What about this life?

Well, I can't miss it, I can't be a bystander or the big bad guy. I want to make up for my mistakes and save everything.
