When you walk into the hanging flower gate, you will see a square courtyard.
The courtyard covers an area of about 120 to 30 square meters. It is paved with green bricks and has a north-south cross-shaped corridor in the middle, which divides the courtyard into four parts.
In the center of the cross-shaped corridor, there is a round marble platform about thirty centimeters high. On it is a huge mackerel fish tank decorated with seaweed patterns and nearly one meter in diameter. It is very eye-catching.
In the northeast corner of the yard, there is a tall crabapple tree. Because it is winter, the leaves on the crabapple tree have fallen off, making it look somewhat desolate under the night.
Under the crabapple tree, there is a marble table and several stone benches, and the stone tables and benches are carved with exquisite patterns and patterns.
Like the mackerel fish tank outside the hanging flower door, each of these stone tables, stone benches, and mackerel fish tank are antique cultural relics, treasures collected by Ye Tian from all over the world.
In particular, the blue and white fish tank with seaweed pattern is a fine porcelain from the official kiln in the late Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It is expensive, at least worth several million yuan.
In the northwest corner of the yard, there is a precious lilac tree, about three meters high. Together with the crabapple in the northeast corner, it adds a bit of elegance to the courtyard.
Unfortunately, it is winter now and the weather is cold. The branches and leaves on this lilac tree have all withered, hiding its most beautiful side.
When spring comes, this lilac will come to life again, sprout new buds, bloom into purple flowers, and bring bursts of fragrance to the courtyard and the door of this mansion.
Under this lilac tree, there are two rows of solid wood flower stands with unique shapes, about one meter high. On them are more than a dozen beautiful bonsais, some of which are lush and green, and some of which are blooming beautifully. With.
On Ye Tian's left hand side, which is the southwest corner of the courtyard, there is a wisteria planted on a solid wood flower stand, creating a pavilion.
In addition, under the wisteria flower stand, there is a moon gate, which leads to another courtyard next to it. There are several Soviet-style paintings above the moon gate, which is very unique.
The southeast corner of the courtyard is a little more monotonous. There is only a moon door painted with Soviet-style paintings. Beyond the door is a winding corridor that leads to other places and blocks the view.
After admiring the scenery in the courtyard, Ye Tian and the others looked at the main building entering the courtyard.
In the front of the courtyard, that is, due north, there are five north rooms, and there are three east and west wing rooms on both sides. All rooms have front porches, and the roofs are traditional hard-topped roofs and tiled clear-water ridge roofs.
Connecting each room is a hand-painted corridor that runs through the entire courtyard. The corridor has upside-down lintels and benches. The doors and windows of each room and the top of the corridor are all exquisitely carved.
At this time, the doors of the rooms in the courtyard were closed, and the situation in the rooms could not be seen.
But it is completely conceivable that those rooms must be so beautiful and jaw-dropping.
As before, the little guy Dongzi is still responsible for the commentary.
"Brother, this is the second courtyard. Our family lives here. There are five north rooms, three east and west wing rooms, a total of eleven rooms. The north room is naturally used by my parents. The dining room, living room and The study rooms are also in the north room.
The three east wing rooms are the most unlucky for me. I can only live in the three west wing rooms. The moon door next to the west wing room is connected to the yard next to it. That side can also be called the west yard, which is larger. a little.
There are also five north rooms and three east and west wing rooms in the yard over there. Sister Linlin’s family lives in that yard; the moon door on our right leads to the garden, which has a beautiful scenery.
This garden is integrated with the other courtyard. Your and your sister-in-law's new house is over there. The courtyard is yours to use. Not only does it have the most beautiful scenery, it is also the largest courtyard in the whole house.
In addition to the garden on the east side, there is also a small garden in the northwest corner of the house, which is also the original garden of the house. Although the area is not large, the scenery is beautiful, with rockeries, pools and various flowers, plants and trees.
Go around along the corridors on both sides of the north house and you will find the inner courtyard. Grandpa and grandma live in the inner courtyard. The area is slightly larger than the front yard. Everything else is similar. There are also five north rooms and three east and west wing rooms. between.
There is another courtyard further back. My uncle and aunt live in the last courtyard. It is as big as the inner courtyard and has the same number of rooms. It is integrated with the small garden in the northwest corner and the scenery is beautiful. ”
While Dongzi was introducing it, Ye Tian had already carefully admired the entire yard. He couldn't be more satisfied with the situation here.
After Dongzi finished his introduction, he immediately continued:
"Let's go to the inner courtyard. Don't keep the grandparents waiting. I'll go and enjoy the west courtyard where my second uncle and the others live, the newly built garden on the east side, and other places in the house after dinner. ”
As he said that, he walked down the steps in the hanging flower door, walked along the corridor in the yard, and walked straight to the north room.
Linlin, Dongzi and the others, as well as the obsessed David, Jason and others, immediately followed and followed.
We didn’t go far, and just as we reached the mackerel tank in the middle of the yard, two people walked out from the Chaoshou Veranda on the east side of the north house. It was my mother and my sister-in-law.
Seeing them, Ye Tian immediately strode forward to greet them, and opened his arms to hug his mother.
Looking at my mother again, a bright smile bloomed on her face, her eyes were filled with love and a bit of pride.
While talking, Ye Tian came closer and gave his mother a warm hug.
"Mom, I'm back. How are you?"
"You stinky kid, you still know how to come back. I thought you had forgotten your mother after you got a wife!"
My mother was laughing and scolding, while gently patting Ye Tian's back. She was already laughing so hard that she couldn't even see her eyebrows.
"How can I? It's true that I married my wife, but I will never forget my mother!"
"I hope so. Let's not talk about it for now. Have you been too troublesome during this period? Everyone in the family was shocked and frightened all day long. Look back and see how I will deal with you! ”
"Don't worry, no one can hurt your son. It has never happened before and will never happen again. Everything is under my control."
Ye Tian said with a chuckle, calming his mother's emotions, and then released his arms.
Next, my mother took a few steps forward to say hello to David and Jason one by one. Everyone already knew each other, so there was no need for a lot of politeness.
Then everyone walked up the verandah, walked around the north room in the front yard, and walked towards the inner yard.
At the entrance of the inner courtyard, Ye Tian saw his uncle and his second uncle and aunt at a glance.
They were standing in the middle of the yard, looking at Ye Tian who walked into the yard with smiles on their faces.
At the same time, Ye Tian had a panoramic view of the situation in the inner courtyard.
The layout of this courtyard is basically the same as the front courtyard, and the number of rooms is also the same. There are five north rooms and three east and west wing rooms. Each room is brightly lit at this time, illuminating the entire yard.
However, there are many differences in the local details of the two courtyards, each with its own merits and characteristics.
The most significant difference is the two trees planted in the northwest and northeast corners of the courtyard.
In the northwest corner of this courtyard, there is a rare magnolia tree planted, which represents repayment of kindness and the filial piety of children. It is also of great ornamental value and is also a good pollution-preventing greening tree species.
In the northeast corner of the courtyard, there is a pomegranate tree, which symbolizes many children, many blessings, and family reunion.
Like the front yard, there is also a marble platform in the center of the corridor. There is also a blue and white fish tank on it. The whole body is painted with blue and white dragon patterns. It is huge and extremely majestic.
The difference is that there is a circle of metal guardrails outside the blue and white dragon pattern fish tank to protect the blue and white fish tank.
The reason for this is simple.
Because this is a Ming Xuande blue and white dragon-patterned vat, one of the pinnacle works of Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain, worth tens or even hundreds of millions of yuan, so it naturally needs to be protected.
In addition, there are many unique and beautiful bonsais placed in this courtyard, including a medium-sized flower garden, a clump of green bamboo, and a set of simple and elegant stone tables and benches.
Then there is a wisteria in the southwest corner, which comes from one of the most famous ancient vines in Beijing, the one in front of Ji Xiaolan’s former residence that is more than 300 years old.
Of course, this wisteria was propagated by cuttings, not the famous ancient vine.
When spring comes and everything revives, this wisteria will sprout new buds, creating a beautiful scene of "purple clouds hanging on the ground and a fragrant fragrance", adding a bit of cultural atmosphere to the gate of this mansion.
Ye Tian was very satisfied with the scenery in this courtyard and was intoxicated.
But what intoxicated him even more was the ubiquitous family affection that permeated every corner of this mansion.
While he was talking, Ye Tian had already arrived in front of his second uncle and younger uncle, and said hello to these elders one by one.
Immediately afterwards, the second uncle pointed to the north room and said with a smile:
"Xiaotian, go to the north room. Your father and grandparents are all in the north room, waiting for you, especially your grandma, who has been talking about it all day"
"Okay, uncle, I'm going to see my grandparents right now, you guys can chat first"
Ye Tian nodded in response, and then walked towards the north room, his steps unusually brisk.
As soon as he walked away, his second uncle and his younger uncle went to greet David and the others and went to say hello to those guys.
