C338

Under the winter sun, Lin Xi could even see the dust flying in the air, forming a hazy yellow ribbon, like a halo hanging in the air.

It is precisely because the winter sun shines through the door into the old house, which has been idle for many years. When the dust is no longer flying, Lin Xi finally has a panoramic view of the old house.

Maybe it's because of Lin Yongli's indifference. Since his death, Lin Xi has never walked into this old house, and his memory of the house is also vague. Even if he usually arranges things, Lin Yunxian comes in to sort them out.

But now, those vague memories are gradually clear again, and the memories of childhood also emerge again. It's not that Lin Xi still resents Lin Yongli's indifference, but that he has some feelings.

Normally speaking, Lin Xi's age should not have so much emotion, but because of his family background, he has been more mature than his peers since childhood, and he has to be rational in thinking, so some emotion is inevitable.

At that time, Lin Xi saw in the old house, in addition to some things that he didn't use all the year round, such as mats, old household appliances, farm tools, etc., the most prominent thing was a square wooden box one meter long and half meter wide.

The objects in the old house were covered with dust because no one had taken care of them for a long time. On the square wooden box, the original color was covered by dust, and even the traces of insects could be seen. Although the holes were small, they were shocking, as if they were rotten wood that could not be carved.

In the square wooden box, there are all the relics left by the two old people. Although there are not many relics in the box, each one has its own memorial significance.

And the reason why Lin Xi came to tidy up this sundry room is actually to tidy up the relics in this square box, so as to take away all those with special significance.

After all, human beings are sentimental animals, and the relics are the thoughts of the older generation. Lin Xi's mother and son are about to move to a new house. If we let these relics go to dust until they are lost in the corner, no one will know, it will be disrespectful to the old people who have passed away.

Although Lin Xi has a lot of complaints about Lin Yongli, he also knows that the relics in the square box are precious to him and Lin Yunxian. After all, he always wants to leave a thought.

As for the other sundries in this room, it's no different from not using them. Anyway, they won't be used in the future. Just stay here and let them become memories with the old house.

"I'm all right, mom. I haven't been to this house for a long time, and I'm going to leave soon. Let me tidy up the things left by my grandfather and mother-in-law and take them away together"

after giving Lin Yunxian a Hello, Lin Xi turns around and walks into the old house, then comes to the square wooden box and moves all the sundries on the box to the floor At the same time, he raised his hand to weigh the wooden box.

Don't mention it. It's very heavy.

Lin Xi took a blow on the wooden box, instantly blew away most of the dust, and then flew in the air again, but this time he saw the real face of the box.

It has to be said that few people still use such old-fashioned heavy wooden boxes to carry things. At the same time, it is not hard to see that this wooden box should be an old object left over from earlier years. Although I dare not say how old it is, it will always be useful in 40 or 50 years.

If you look at the patterns carved on the wooden box, it should be the "furniture" bought by the two old people when they got married.

At that time, the baking paint on the outer skin of the box had fallen off a lot. Even the rest of the baking paint was cracking and peeling. It seemed that it was about to fall off.

On the surface of the box, there are all kinds of flowers and plants carved, the most prominent is a pair of Phoenix, which can be called vivid. This also confirms Lin Xi's conjecture, because only in that era, the furniture of the couple's dowry would have such a design.

In addition, the workmanship of the lock nose is also extremely exquisite, but there is no iron lock. It must have been lost, and only the lock noses are tightly fastened to each other.

Looking at the square box in front of him, Lin Xi didn't even have the idea to go to beimengou of the county town to have a look. After all, the box is too heavy. There should be a lot of things in it. It's time to sort out all the things in it.

But on second thought, even if the stall owner opened in beimengou this day, it was useless for him to be in a hurry for a while. The brush had not been picked up for a long time on the stall. If it was lost in one day, he would have to admit his life.

After making a decision in his heart, Lin Xi opens the locked nose tightly. Maybe it's because it's been idle for a long time. The lock nose is covered with rust, and the rust is connected with each other, which makes Lin Xi break the lock nose with the strength of the boss.

But after opening the wooden box, the objects in the box stunned Lin Xi.

Before opening the box, Lin Xi weighed the wooden box and found that it was extremely heavy. He thought there would be a lot of objects in it. Even if it was not a full box, it should not be far away. But when he opened the box, he fell down.

Because the contents of the box are very few.Shaking his head, Lin Xi looked at the objects in the box again. On the left side of the box, he saw a pile of neatly stacked books and a stack of letters tied up with hemp ropes. On the right side, there were three black bumps.

At that time, Lin Xi's eyes first fell on the stack of neatly stacked books. The covers of those books had turned yellow and looked rather stiff, but the writing was kept very neat, and even there was no sign of weathering.

Or perhaps too long did not see the sun's reason, those rigid books, there is always a little bit of moisture, the pages of each other sticky, it can be seen that these books are very old.

Carefully picked up the top book, Lin Xi opened the title page of the book to see the publication date. It turned out that it was "Chinese wood science" published by the commercial press in 1936, and the author of this book was Tang Yao.

Lin Xi did not study wood science, and he had never heard of Tang Yao. However, he opened the book for several pages and found that the contents were all printed traditional Chinese characters. The introduction proved that the book was indeed an old publication in 1936.

This kind of old professional publication, even now, can be regarded as an extremely rare rarity. Perhaps only in those large-scale libraries can we find the basic information, at least in Cangxi, where there is no County Library.
