After a month, the days gradually turned cooler and the leaves on the mountain began to turn yellow. From a distance, the entire mountain range looked like a mountain of gold.
"Bai Yi, let's go to the Northeast before it's too cold. This yard is too spacious for the two of us. Let's go and bring Da Huang and the others over!"
The world of two people is indeed sweet, but I always feel that it lacks some fun and vitality.
"Okay, I'm just passing through the capital and need to stop there. There are a few elderly people who need to be nursed back to health."
When several leaders came to the wedding banquet, they specifically asked Yang Baiyi to take time to go to the capital.
Neither of them was the type to drag their feet, so when they went to the staff housing compound for dinner in the evening, Yang Baiyi told his grandmother about this matter.
"Brother, can I go with you? I miss Xiao Lele and Sister Erya."
When the little girl heard that her brother and sister-in-law were going on a long journey again, her eyes lit up.
She likes the winter in Northeast China the most. It is really cold, but also really fun.
"I don't have the final say. You should ask your teacher Zhou."
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or the principal’s special arrangement, but Zhou Fengying was assigned to the class that Yang Xiaoxiao attended.
"Xiaoxiao, you are already a fifth-grade student and will be entering junior high school next year. You must focus on your studies now and can't be as casual as before."
After being a teacher for a year, Zhou Fengying is still very intimidating when she gets serious.
"Aunt, I will never be friends with you again."
Ever since Zhou Fengying became her class teacher, the little girl felt that the sky was gray.
"I was just kidding you, why are you so angry?"
"Bai Yi, don't worry about Xiao Xiao's academic performance. She has already learned all the knowledge in elementary school. If it's convenient for you, it's okay to take her with you."
The little girl smiles all day long and rarely gets angry.
"Aunt? My beloved Teacher Zhou, I knew you would agree."
The little girl cheered, and the expression on her face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny.
The next day, Yang Baiyi and his wife took their sister and boarded a train to the capital.
After arriving in Beijing, Yang Baiyi called a tricycle at the station. When he told the address, he scared the tricycle driver.
"Comrade, you are from outside the area, right? Don't wander around there randomly. There are sentries patrolling everywhere.
If you really want to visit the Imperial City, I can recommend a few good places for you."
Most tricycle drivers are warm-hearted people, and the hardships of life have not dampened their enthusiasm.
"Master, we are just looking for someone. We have a relative working there."
In later generations, Yang Baiyi also rode a human-powered tricycle in the scenic area. At that time, the tricycle had become a local feature and intangible cultural heritage.
The greenest means of transportation has also become the most expensive means of travel, much more expensive than taking a taxi.
"That's great! No one who can work there is a simple person. I'll take you there right away."
After the three people were seated firmly, the tricycle driver stepped on the tricycle and it slowly moved forward.
The tricycle driver was very talkative and introduced every attraction and every street along the way to the three of them.
"Comrade, this is Deshengmen, which was used to send troops to fight in the past, symbolizing victory in every battle.
In the past, there were nine inner walls, seven outer walls and four imperial city gates in the capital. The capital was full of ancient city walls and gates. Later, most of them were demolished for the development of the capital.
Many historical sites have been demolished, but the capital hasn't developed much!"
When entering the inner city, the tricycle driver sighed when he saw the once majestic city walls, now in ruins.
He didn't know what a modern city was, nor did he know what foresight was. He just felt it was a pity that the city walls and gates were demolished.
"Comrade, I can only take you this far. There will be soldiers patrolling further ahead. Keep going straight. You'll reach the place you mentioned in about 500 meters."
Yang Baiyi gave the tricycle driver one dollar, pulled the suitcase, took Lin Wanru and Yang Xiaoxiao, and strode towards the destination.
"Comrade, this is a closed area and not open to outsiders."
Tourists take the wrong road almost every day, and the patrolling soldiers have long been accustomed to it.
"We didn't take the wrong road, we came here on purpose."
Yang Baiyi took out his military officer ID and handed it over.
"Hello, Chief. Please wait a moment. I will report immediately."
The leading soldier handed Yang Baiyi's officer certificate back with both hands, ran quickly to the guard post, and called to report.
Soon, a Red Flag car with a license plate starting with "Tian" drove over. After confirming Yang Baiyi's identity, the car asked the three of them to get in and drove towards a building complex.
"As soon as those old guys returned to the capital, they praised your medical skills highly. Now that you are in the capital, I can also experience your miraculous medical skills."
The person who received Yang Baiyi was an old man with a dignified face and extraordinary bearing.
After a few old friends came back from Suzhou, they started smoking and drinking, and only ate the fattiest meat, which made the few who stayed in Beijing last time very greedy.
If the old friends hadn't said that Yang Baiyi would come to the capital in a while, they would have wanted to send someone to invite Yang Baiyi over.
This has nothing to do with status. Who would want to drag around a sick body if they can recover their health?
Obviously, we are all VIP customers of the hospital, but others suddenly recover their health. Who can bear this? Who can still maintain composure?
Yang Baiyi stayed in the yard for the entire afternoon. Near dusk, a convoy of cars filed out of the yard and headed straight to Diaoyutai.
Yang Baiyi witnessed a state banquet for the first time and saw various special supplies.
Not to mention cigarettes, alcohol and tea, even the tableware is specially provided, with clear markings on the bowls, plates and chopsticks.
Yang Baiyi didn’t understand these things, and thought they were similar to those used by the emperor in ancient times!
The little girl is a few years older and more sensible than before. Although she is still a foodie at heart, she still has all the necessary manners.
When the leader was speaking, regardless of whether she could understand him or not, she would stare at him intently and even nod frequently.
After the meal started, the little girl sat well-behaved and ate whatever her brother and sister-in-law picked for her.
Of course, Yang Baiyi and Lin Wanru knew their sister very well. As long as the little girl stared at a dish for more than three seconds, that dish would soon appear on her plate.
After the state banquet, the three were taken to a courtyard with three entrances and exits to rest.
The whole yard is antique and very clean. The house is spotless and there is not a single fallen leaf in the yard. It is obvious that someone is specially responsible for its maintenance.
"Commander, this courtyard was once the Prince Gong's Mansion. It will be your property from now on. Here is the key to the courtyard.
The yard is maintained by a dedicated staff, so you can come and stay here anytime when you come to the capital."
The staff member who brought Yang Baiyi back put a bunch of keys on the table.
"You mean this yard belongs to me, not just for me to stay in temporarily?"
