Chapter 179 Visiting Grandfather's Courtyard
After the two little ones woke up in the afternoon, Wang Qiuping found Xia Songlan and suggested that they visit their grandparents and her parents.
Xia Songlan was very surprised.
Wang Qiuping explained: "The organizer of the conference just informed your father that he must report to the venue tonight. The entire conference is closed and he cannot go home.
It is very likely that we will return to the Northland immediately after the meeting. Then we will only have time to visit them this afternoon."
"Okay mom, I'll call grandpa to see if he's home."
A telephone was installed in the courtyard where my grandfather lives last year, so it is very convenient to contact him now.
There has always been a telephone in the compound house where they live now.
Soon, the call was connected, and grandma's gentle voice came from the other end, "Hello, who is this?"
"Grandma, I'm Isandra. The kids' grandparents are back and they want to visit you and grandpa today. Do you have time?"
Grandma's personality has become extremely cheerful now. She smiled and said, "I don't have time for others, but of course I have time for my mother-in-law. Tell them that we will prepare a bed for you."
Xia Songlan contacted Xia Sumu again.
Xia Sumu happened to have time in the afternoon, but Zhou Sangning was the only one who was still working in the hospital. When he heard that Ning Jingmo's parents were coming to visit, he immediately asked for leave.
So Xia Songlan agreed with her parents to go to her grandmother's house together.
Before long, everyone arrived at my grandfather's yard.
The courtyard now is completely different from when Xia Songlan first bought it. The appearance has not changed much and it still looks simple and generous, but there is a lot of mystery inside.
By chance, in the past two years, Xia Songlan also bought the two houses on the left and right sides of the courtyard.
Now the three courtyards have been opened up and connected together.
There is a plaque hanging on the door leading to the small courtyard on the left - Yale Zhai.
My grandmother decorated the entire yard into a place where she practiced the piano, wrote music scores, and stored musical instruments and collections.
There is also a plaque hanging on the gate to the small courtyard on the right - Anlefang.
This courtyard is where my grandfather stores various medicinal materials, books, medical instruments, and boils Chinese medicine.
The original courtyard in the middle became a place for meeting guests and accommodation.
Ning Jingmo accompanies Xia Songlan and brings the children here to spend the weekend almost every week, and is very familiar with this place.
Wang Qiuping and Ning Shenghe praised the layout of the courtyard.
Ning Shenghe said, "Mr. Zhou, this is truly a paradise on earth. It's really enviable."
Grandpa glanced at Xia Songlan, then smiled and said, "I'm old now, and I just want to live a quiet life. This place is very quiet even though it's in a busy city.
It can be considered as hidden among the people in the city."
"You are so modest. You are a great hermit living in seclusion in the city! You are truly a great man."
“I really don’t deserve this title, but I am old now and I just want to spend the rest of my life with the one I love.
We just use our hobbies to pass our spare time."
Ning Shenghe expressed his admiration for them. "One of them is a medical master, and the other is a music leader. They still have such a humble attitude. They are really role models for us."
Grandpa led everyone to Anlefang on the right and introduced the medicinal materials there eloquently.
There is a consulting room inside.
Grandpa naturally invited Wang Qiuping and Ning Shenghe to sit down and took their pulses one after another.
He did not say much about the pulse, but led everyone back to Yalezhai.
Ning Shenghe didn't show it on his face. He continued to chat and laugh with his grandfather and didn't ask about the diagnosis results.
Wang Qiuping followed behind, feeling a little worried as if he was scratched by a cat. He couldn't help but grab Xia Songlan.
"Songlan, what does Elder Zhou mean by this? Why didn't you tell me what the pulse was like after taking it?"
Xia Songlan smiled and comforted, "Don't worry! Mom must be fine. If there really is something wrong, Grandpa would have told me just now."
Wang Qiuping was relieved and continued to visit with his grandmother Zhou Sanning and others, chatting and laughing.
Xia Songlan secretly laughed in her heart, and looking at her grandfather who was talking happily with Ning Shenghe in front of her, she couldn't help but shook her head.
Ning Jingmo walked beside her and asked softly, "What are you secretly happy about?"
"I was just laughing at Grandpa, a naughty old boy. No wonder Grandma always likes to talk about him and be mysterious."
Ning Jingmo also looked up at his grandfather in the distance.
The couple smiled at each other knowingly.
After coming out of Yale Zhai, several people went to the main house together.
Grandma personally made tea for everyone, and Xia Songlan helped her.
This was an elegant interest that she had rediscovered after her grandmother moved into the courtyard. Xia Songlan was kept by her grandmother and learned a lot from her.
Although the tea I brew is not as delicious as my grandmother's, I have already understood some aspects of the tea ceremony.
She brought over the tea that her grandmother had prepared one by one.
Ning Shenghe took a sip and said, "I haven't drunk the tea brewed by Teacher Zhang for nearly ten years. The taste is getting more mellow.
It is indeed like sitting alone in a garden, facing the flowers, slowly brewing time and slowly brewing tea. "
Grandma felt very happy to be praised, and her eyes became more loving as she looked at Ning Shenghe.
After everyone drank some more tea, the men stayed to chat with grandpa in the main house.
Grandma took the women and children to Yalezhai.
Yalezhai is the most elegantly decorated of the three courtyards.
Even the smell of medicine has become much lighter, with a faint floral scent.
Grandma sat in front of the piano and enthusiastically introduced, "I recently composed a new piece of music, can you listen to it for me?"
He glanced at the main house and said, "That old man, I asked him to help me listen, but he always said yes and didn't offer any suggestions."
Although he was mumbling something, his face was full of happiness.
After the piano piece ended, everyone was still immersed in the beautiful music, unable to extricate themselves for a long time. Even Dabao and Xiaobao had an intoxicated expression.
In the end, it was Xiaobao who clapped his hands first and ran to his grandmother, "Grandma, it's so beautiful. I want to play the piano, too."
Grandma was originally looking at everyone expectantly, but she was so surprised by Xiaobao's sudden words that she couldn't close her mouth.
She quickly held Xiaobao in her arms and said, "Oh, my little darling, come here, let grandma teach you."
Dabao also came over, but after watching for a while, he lost interest and ran out of the piano room.
He knew the entire yard very well and quickly found the toys he had hidden earlier.
He ran to Ning Shenghe as if presenting a treasure and said, "Grandpa, look, this is the cricket that my great-grandfather and I caught together. It's amazing."
No one was angry or blamed Dabao for suddenly interrupting the topic. Everyone looked at the katydid in Dabao's hand.
Ning Shenghe commented seriously, "From the sound of the katydid's cry, you can tell it's an aggressive creature. Its two hind legs are plump and powerful, and it looks very strong.
If this fights with other katydids, it will definitely be a victorious general. "
Although Dabao didn't understand, he nodded his head ignorantly and looked extremely serious.
He even begged his grandfather, "Great Grandpa, when we have time, let's catch another one and let the two of them fight to see who is stronger."
"Okay, okay, when we have some free time in a couple of days, Grandpa will bring Dabao and we'll catch a few more and let them fight in groups."
The music is playing over there and the conversation is lively over here.
