[Time: 1960s]
[Location: Beijing, Nanluogu Alley.]
Standing at the entrance of Nanluogu Alley, Chen Jianjun looked at the antique alley and the street full of special slogans. He was already used to it.
On the wall at the entrance of the alley, there was a poster with a promotional slogan.
Eliminate Illiteracy and Unify Primary and Secondary Education
Work hard, strive for the upper reaches, build a better gardener faster, more, better, and better
As someone from the 21st century, he had even witnessed the birth of this slogan.
He had also witnessed the hardships of the new flower family, even though he was still young at that time.
Although the people on the streets were wearing patched clothes and their faces were pale, their vitality, enthusiasm for life, and energy were rare in the modern world.
A soul from the 21st century was already familiar with all this.
He was dressed in a Chinese tunic suit, tall and handsome, with a straight posture like a spear. He wore a pair of simple nanmu spectacles on his nose bridge.
He was carrying a huge backpack on his back, and he was dragging a rather futuristic suitcase in his hand. Under the suitcase, there were four freely rotating wheels and a foldable push-pull rod, which was particularly eye-catching.
With such attire and a distinctive suitcase, the key was that he was really good-looking. Therefore, the people walking on the street were not stingy with their admiring gazes.
The gazes of some young wives and aunties were filled with a different color.
Jianjun Chen was already used to this kind of gaze.
With his height of nearly 1.9 meters and top-notch looks, no matter where he went, he would always attract all kinds of attention.
Standing at the entrance of Nanluogu Alley, Chen Jianjun took a deep breath and walked in.
It had been four years since he last returned. Time seemed to have stopped at the moment he left. No changes could be seen in Nanluogu Alley.
Aunties with bound feet sat in the alley, chatting in groups of two or three. In this era where there were no entertainment activities, if there was any movement in the alley, it would be transmitted through this group of small speakers at a speed comparable to a broadcast. It was guaranteed that it would spread throughout the entire alley at the first moment.
Outsiders who came in and walked around would be asked how many pairs of socks there were in the house.
Without a doubt, Chen Jianjun attracted the attention of the aunties as he walked into the alley.
As a child who grew up in the alley, he was also the focus of discussion among the aunties. Even though Chen Jianjun had left for four years and had never returned, he was immediately recognized.
"Child of the Chen family, didn't you go to university? Why are you back?”
"You're becoming more and more handsome. Do you have a partner? Auntie has a niece who just turned eighteen. She's very good-looking and hardworking. She hasn't dated yet. Child of the Chen family, can I find some time to bring her to you?”
"Jianjun, the more you grow, the more energetic you become. You used to be thin and skinny, but now you look much stronger!”
The alley suddenly became lively, and Chen Jianjun became the center of attention.
They were old neighbors for more than ten years, and nothing seemed to have changed.
Along the way, Chen Jianjun also politely responded to the greetings of the aunties along the way. He didn't even reach the gate of the courtyard house where he lived, but the people in the courtyard house had already received the news.
"Yan Family's daughter-in-law, Chen Jianjun from your quad is back!”
This sentence was like a relay race, and it spread to the courtyard immediately.
Today was Sunday. The workers of this era worked for six days and had one day off on Sunday.
Therefore, the alley became lively. Even the people in the neighboring yard came out to greet Chen Jianjun.
In response, Jianjun Chen kept smiling.
As a child, Jianjun Chen had shown a maturity that was different from other children since he was a child. In addition, he was good-looking, had a sweet mouth, and had excellent academic performance. He was well-liked by the surrounding people.
Therefore, Chen Jianjun was quite popular in Nanluogu Alley.
This was also the reason why he was recognized so quickly after not returning for a few years.
Of course, there was another reason for this. Chen Jianjun's family was the most famous in Nanluogu Alley.
Jianjun Chen's father died at the hands of the Japanese when he was three years old. His grandfather died on the Jinggang Mountains.
And his elder brother had died on the Korean battlefield six years ago.
His mother was a military doctor who retired due to injury. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, under the organization's arrangements, she settled down in Nanluogu Alley in the capital and was arranged to work in the medical department of Red Star's Third Rolling Mill.
She took care of the two brothers to study and grow.
However, just six years ago, when the news of Chen Jianjun's brother's death came, his mother was too sad and her old injuries relapsed. Although the streets and the army had arranged for treatment in time, they only lasted for two years. After Chen Jianjun was admitted to the University of Technology, he left.
Chen Jianjun was the only one left in the Chen family. That was why he had not returned for four years.
The youth had faded. Even though Jianjun Chen was only nineteen years old, he was no longer a teenager.
After transmigrating, Chen Jianjun firmly grasped the opportunity to study hard. From primary school to high school, he achieved four consecutive jumps. Four years of primary school, two years of junior high school, two years of high school, and four years of university. Only then did he graduate from university at the age of nineteen.
In the university, he was a true genius.
Even many professors in the university praised him and even recommended him to study in Mao Xiong's university. If Chen Jianjun didn't know the future situation and the changes in their relationship, he would have gone to Mao Xiong's university.
In fact, two years ago, he could have graduated from the University of Science and Technology. At that time, he didn't have a master's or a PhD.
Moreover, he had followed his teacher and participated in some projects. In addition, he was still young at that time, so he was not in a hurry to graduate.
Standing at the entrance of the courtyard house, Chen Jianjun looked at the familiar door. Carrying a heavy suitcase, he walked in with heavy footsteps.
From the moment he moved to Beijing and moved into the courtyard, Chen Jianjun knew everything. He had traveled to the world of Love in the Courtyard.
Not only that, but five years ago, a family moved in next door. The woman was called Liang Ladie, and she was a welder at the nearby machine repair factory.
More importantly, there was a group of extraordinary residents living in the courtyard house he lived in.
