Chapter 2000: Our palace
After chatting with sister-in-law and sister-in-law, Ye Tian left the front yard and walked into the inner yard along the hand-written veranda.
The grandparents who lived in the inner courtyard had already fallen asleep. Except for the antique palace lanterns hanging on the front porch, the inner courtyard was still on, and the lights in the north and east and west wing rooms had already gone out.
It’s just that the yard is quite bright due to the reflection of snow all over the floor.
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian didn't bother his grandparents. Instead, he bypassed the inner courtyard and went straight into the courtyard behind, which was the courtyard where his parents lived.
As soon as he walked into the yard, Ye Tian looked up and saw that the two parents, wearing pajamas and a coat each, were standing on the front porch of the north house, looking at the moon gate.
Obviously, they had already learned from the sister-in-law that Ye Tian had returned, and they came out of the living room.
Seeing Ye Tian walking into the yard with a suitcase at the moment, the old couple's faces immediately burst into bright smiles, and their expressions were much more relaxed.
While talking, Ye Tian had already walked through the courtyard and came to his parents.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back, you two don't actually need to wait for me, it's a cold day, how nice to rest early"
Ye Tian smiled and said softly, stepped up the steps of the north house, entered the front porch, and left the snow flying in the sky behind him.
"Just come back, come in for a cup of hot tea, warm up, it's too cold outside"
Dad smiled and nodded and said, turned around and walked into the room.
Mom lightly patted the snowflakes on Ye Tian's shoulder, and said in a low voice:
"We were all right. We just squinted for a while. In fact, we are not sleepy. It is your old father-in-law and mother-in-law. Because of the jet lag, they were so sleepy early in the morning. They went back to your yard to rest.
Betty and Logan, as well as Linlin and Dongzi, are all in your yard. When you come back and have a cup of hot tea, you can go back to the yard and take a good rest."
"Okay, let's go in"
said, Ye Tian walked into the north room with his mother.
About ten minutes later, he came out of the room, and then walked along the chaos porch to the courtyard of himself and Betty.
In a blink of an eye, he has come to the door of the courtyard where he lives.
Compared with the other courtyards, this courtyard has the largest area and the most beautiful scenery.
Especially the garden connected to the yard. The rockery pool, trees, flowers, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions are all available in the garden, which is quite a Suzhou garden.
Even though it is night, darkness is covering the earth.
However, under the illumination of many different styles of antique palace lanterns and floor lamps, coupled with the reflection of white snow covering the entire yard and garden, this courtyard is very quiet.
In a prosperous modern city like Beijing, and in the central area of this great city, such an environment is really rare!
And the lights from the north and west wing rooms of the courtyard, as well as bursts of laughter, added a lot of popularity to the courtyard, which was full of vigor and warmth.
Ye Tian, who entered the yard, did not immediately walk to the north house where he and Betty lived. Instead, he came to the door of the moon that connected the garden. With snow flying in the sky, he enjoyed the beauty of the garden alone.
Although Beijing is located in the north, there are only a handful of snowy days in recent years. I haven't encountered a snowy day like tonight for several years.
What's more, there is also an exquisite private garden here, and it is late at night. In the heavy snow, there must be no beauty. How can this beauty be missed?
In the winter in New York, heavy snowfall is very common. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of your apartment, you can embrace the snowy beauty of the entire Central Park.
The scenery of Central Park is beautiful, but it is more in line with the aesthetics of Westerners, lacking a bit of charm, and the private garden in front of you is more refined and more in line with the aesthetics of Easterners.
More importantly, this is my own garden. The emotional and spiritual resonance cannot be given or replaced by any other place!
Ye Tian put the suitcase on the ground, and then walked into the garden alone, strolling in the garden, enjoying the beautiful scenery here, breathing the cold and refreshing air greedily.
While admiring the scenery in the night, he also found many messy footprints on the ground. It was almost completely covered by snow, but there were still some traces.
Obviously, before him, Betty and Linlin had also come to this garden to admire the snow scene with snow flying all over the sky, have fun, and go back only after having enough.
Ye Tian walked around the entire garden thoroughly, and then returned to the moon gate, picked up the suitcase on the ground again, and walked towards the north house with the lights on.
In a blink of an eye, he has come to the front of the Beifang and stepped up the steps.
At this time, bursts of cheers and laughter kept coming from the north room, reaching his ears.
From these sounds alone, he can hear who is in the room.
Logan, Dongzi, Linlin and Chenxi are all in their living room at the moment, some are talking and laughing, some are playing games, everyone is very excited.
Of course, the hostess who entered the courtyard, Betty, was also in the living room.
Ye Tian paused at the door of the north room, patted the snowflakes on his head and body lightly, and then opened the door with a smile on his face and walked into this warm living room.
As the door opened, the guys in the living room turned and looked over.
Seeing that Ye Tian came in, Betty and the others immediately stood up and walked over to the door.
It was the little girl Chen Xi who came to Ye Tian first.
Same as before, this little girl hugged Ye Tian's arm when she came up, and directly spoiled her.
"Brother! You can come back, we are almost asleep while waiting"
Ye Tian looked at this little girl, and then joked:
"Don't be funny, I can hear you really outside the door. You have the loudest voice. You can hear you standing in the garden. You are about to fall asleep. I don't think you will be sleepy until dawn. "
"hahaha"
Linlin and Dongzi both laughed, but Betty and Logan didn’t understand, so they still didn’t understand Chinese.
However, this does not hinder their feelings. They can clearly feel the warm affection between Ye Tian and Chenxi, so they laughed too.
Next, Ye Tian stepped forward to hug Betty, and greeted Linlin and the others one by one.
Then, he went to the next room to wash and change clothes, and Betty and the others sat back in their seats, chatting while waiting for Ye Tian to come out.
Soon, ten minutes passed.
Ye Tian, who changed into casual home clothes, finally returned to the living room and sat next to Betty.
As soon as he sat down, Logan, who was sitting on a yellow pear armchair next to him, immediately said impatiently:
"Steven, this courtyard of your house is really amazing. It is definitely one of the most beautiful courtyards I have ever seen, and it is very comfortable and livable, it is like a palace.
I have decided that when I graduate from graduate school, I will build my own Chinese-style mansion based on your courtyard house. Living in such a house is what life is called! "
Ye Tian turned his head to look at the kid, then smiled and said:
"You are a high-achieving student in the Department of Architecture at MIT. It is not difficult for you to build such a courtyard house. With the land price near Boston, you can even build a larger and more luxurious courtyard house~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but a courtyard house. This kind of classic Chinese traditional architecture, leaving Beijing and the hutongs of Beijing, will not have that taste. Of course, the modernized courtyard house is still very livable."
Hearing these words, the kid Logan couldn't help being silent, lost in thought.
Betty, who was nestling next to Ye Tian, said:
"My dear, I like this courtyard house so much. I like everything here. It is a beautiful and exquisite palace, especially the garden in front, which is so beautiful and lingering.
Not only Logan and I, our parents, Matthew and Evelyn, also like this courtyard house very much. After coming here today, they wandered inside and out no less than ten times, and they didn't miss any corner! "
Ye Tian gently poured Betty into his arms, and whispered softly:
"As long as you like it, dear, this beautiful palace is for you. This is our palace, our home!"
The voice hadn't fallen yet, and suddenly there was an angry voice next to him.
"Please! Don't sprinkle dog food, can you do it? There must be a limit to show affection and separate occasions. Don't forget, there are two minors here!"
The voice came from Linlin, while Dongzi and Chenxi had expressions of disgust, and they covered their eyes very cooperatively.
Ye Tian couldn't help laughing softly when she heard Linlin's words and saw the expressions of these three little guys.
