This was Chen Da's first visit to the legendary Courtyard House in Liu Hai Alley, where he had heard there was a walnut tree so large it could cover half of the main yard, and that there were two persimmon trees and a date tree in the courtyard, along with fragrant toon trees from which you could pick leaves to eat when the season came.
They say it was a hidden paradise; they say the pancakes and rolled pancakes there were very tasty, they say not everyone could enter that courtyard, they say that so far, everyone who has been able to enter has achieved success in life.
Chen Da had heard far too many legends about that courtyard, as if it were a piece of lucky feng shui land, but in fact, everyone understood it was all because that young man lived there.
