Chapter 1 Hidden away(2/2)
After saying that, the grandfather picked up the purple clay pot on the cement platform beside the well, took a sip at the spout and said.
"After your master and his family failed the Boxer Rebellion, they met me while living in seclusion. I was only four or five years old at that time and were almost starving to death.
Your master took me home and gave me food and drink, and finally survived.
Later, he learned art with him and made some achievements ten years later. One day, Sun Lutang came to the capital and became friends with you, Master Li Cunyi. Both of them studied boxing all day long.
At that time, I was already sixteen years old. When Sun Lutang saw that I was so martial, he taught me another Tai Chi hand, and I have practiced it until now.
After the Emperor abdicated, in 1920, when I was twenty-five years old, due to wars, the Emperor asked someone to find a martial arts master for safety. At this time, someone recommended my master, but his master was old, so he asked me to go to the Emperor. Although he didn't like Emperor, he hated foreigners even more."
At this time, Yue Zhengyang just listened quietly. The great grandfather's life was full of misfortunes. At that time, the country was difficult, and the emperor was already on the verge of danger, let alone ordinary people.
"For decades after that, I was wandering around with the emperor and was bullied by RB people. When the emperor was the emperor, he spent all his wealth. Later, when he was captured by the Soviet Union, the emperor felt that he could never go out again, so he asked me to escape in the chaos and hide the treasures of my ancestors.
Later, I took root in the capital and found my mother and younger brother who had been separated, namely your grandfather and grandmother.
Although the country is poor now, it is still peaceful. Without war, I am old and only enjoy peace and happiness.
You are the only bloodline in our Yue family. As long as you are well, everything goes well and better than anything else!”
"Okay, grandpa, please give me a hundred thoughts. I know everything. If there is someone who is not open to my eyes, I will act cautiously and will not do that shy thing."
Yue Zhengyang also replied sincerely, in his opinion, life is put first.
But sometimes you don’t have a bad reputation, and many troubles will come to you.
The old man took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and put them in Yue Zhengyang's hand and said.
"This is five hundred yuan, you can use it. Don't go on the road of no return for a little money. Grandpa just tells you, money is something, hehe,"
As he said that, his grandfather actually laughed, picked up the purple clay pot and walked into his room, and continued.
"There are no shortages of men!"
Yue Zhengyang twitched in his face, hehe, this old man has some tricks, he has never lost his life with the emperor for so many years.
While thinking in my heart, I grabbed the coat from the grape trellis in my hand and went to the kitchen to put it in the vegetable basket with the lunch box. I picked up the vegetable basket and hung it on the bicycle faucet. It was time to buy breakfast.
After leaving the alley, I went to Dashilan and headed straight for the vegetable market.
At this time, there were quite a lot of people and cars on the street.
It is amazing to have a bicycle in this era. Of course, it would be better if it was a family in a military compound.
But it is probably not easy for them to live in this era.
The egg-yellow sun is half exposed, except for the temperature that starts to warm up.
I heard the crisp and pleasant bicycle bell of "Lingling" in my ears, and there were people coming and going on the road, chatting in groups of three or five.
Yue Zhengyang arrived at the vegetable market, set up his bicycle, raised his hand and looked at the time. It was already half past six, and the breakfast shop was already in line.
There are no people who have been in line these days, and they are chatting with each other in the front and back rows. Everyone is from the neighbors on the street.
Yue Zhengyang was not in a hurry, took out a cigarette, and sang the index finger of his right hand and a cigarette popped out of the cigarette box.
Yue Zhengyang opened his mouth and grabbed the cigarette. After lit it, Yue Zhengyang took a deep breath.
During this period, no one accused you of smoking in public for being uncivilized, but some people would say that spitting.
Because there are patrolers on the street.
After a while, I arrived at Yue Zhengyang and bought two kilograms of large meat buns, half a kilogram of fried dough sticks into the vegetable basket, and made a lunch box with soy milk.
Yue Zhengyang exchanged a lot of food coupons from the black market, and the grandfather gave him a lot of them, and I don’t know where the old man got it.
