Small Palm's Classic Books - Grandpa's Old House

爷爷带小孙子重回他童年住的弄堂。这里有结构别致的老建筑、庭院中开满白色花的夹竹桃树，还有凉风吹送到弄堂口夹带着邻里亲切的交谈声，如一幅幅流动的纸上画卷。祖孙俩坐在老房子的楼梯上，抚摸着上面深深浅浅的木纹，仿佛回到了爷爷小时候的时光里。爷爷讲起了曾经住在这里的一个小裁缝和一只虎斑猫的故事。现实和回忆的双线叙事交错并行，展现了时空流转中老弄堂的动人故事和浓浓的邻里亲情。

Grandpa takes his grandson back to the alley he lived in his childhood. There are chic old buildings, yards where oleander trees are blossoming with white flowers, and friendly conversations carried by cool breezes to the exits of the alley. The scenes are like scrolls of paintings. The grandfather and his grandson sit on the stairs of the old house, and caress the wooden grains of different depths, as the grandfather did when he was a kid. Grandpa talks about a little tailor and a tabby cat that used to live here. Reality and memories are intertwined together to form a parallel narrative, which shows the touching stories in the old alley and strong neighborly love as time and space change.
