Chapter 2039: The real life in a courtyard house
As it approaches nine in the morning, Lishi Hutong has become more lively, with constant traffic and loud voices.
It can be seen that almost everyone who enters and exits this alley has a bright smile on their faces, and everyone is full of expectations.
The guests invited to attend the Chinese wedding of Ye Tian and Betty have rushed to Lishi Hutong one after another and entered the gate of the mansion in the middle of the hutong.
At this time, Ye Tian had already put on a dress, and he was very neat and meticulous, standing at the door of his house to welcome the guests who came to present the gift.
However, Betty, the heroine of this wedding, was not by his side.
The reason is very simple. Betty is pregnant and it is cold outside. Naturally, she can't come out and stand at the door to blow the air, and her elders can't allow it.
Most of the guests attending the wedding today are relatives of the old Ye family, and the old neighbors living in Lishi Hutong. They basically know that Betty is pregnant, and they don't mind.
In addition to family, friends and neighbors in the neighborhood, Ye Tian also invited some other guests.
These guests are all famous figures in the field of antique art collection, such as Shan Lao of the Forbidden City, and Ma Ye, etc., which add up to just one table.
As for the other people in the field of antique art collection, as well as Ye Tian’s children, friends, and classmates, they will only entertain them tomorrow, and it will be in the Beijing Hotel, not at home.
While speaking, Ye Tian sent several relatives into the gate again, and then asked Dongzi to take these relatives into the yard.
Waiting for Ye Tian to come out of the door, and just stepping down the steps, he saw Elder Shan of the Forbidden City and several old men, talking and laughing towards the door.
Seeing them, Ye Tian immediately greeted them, and the old men waved at him.
After everyone met, it was natural to have some polite greetings, New Year greetings and so on.
Next, Ye Tian brought these old men to the front of his house, preparing to take them in himself.
When they walked to the door, these antique art collectors stopped at the same time and looked at the two stone lions on both sides of the door and the four octagonal palace lanterns hanging above the door.
Without exception, the eyes of these old men at this time were straight and flashing with surprise.
They can see in a blink of an eye that the two stone lions at the entrance of this mansion and the four octagonal palace lanterns hanging on the door are all genuine antiques, and each one is very valuable and quite rare.
After confirming this, each of them secretly took a breath of air-conditioning, and was also shocked by Ye Tian's great work.
"Ye Tian, I've been to this mansion gate of your house before, and more than once, at that time this yard had not fallen into your hands. To be honest, the changes in this mansion gate were so great that I almost couldn't recognize it.
Previously placed at this door were another pair of stone lions and a pair of stone drums. These were all things from the Republic of China period. They are simply incomparable with the pair of stone lions in front of them. It can be described as a sky and an underground.
If I’m not mistaken, this should be a pair of stone lions carved in the mid-Qianlong period, and they came from the Qing palace. They are of great value. I don’t know where did you find such a pair of treasures?
Such a pair of valuable stone lions, you actually put them at your door in a majestic manner. I have to say, your kid is really big enough. Are you not afraid that this pair of treasures will be stolen? "
Ma Ye pointed to the two stone lions in front of him and said, his eyes full of envy.
As soon as his voice fell, the old Jin from the Forbidden City continued to say:
"The four octagonal lanterns hanging on the gate tower, but the pair of stone lions, were also made by the Qing Palace Manufacturing Office. They were made in the early Jiaqing period. Such well-preserved octagonal glazed lanterns are not found in the Forbidden City.
Once these lanterns are lit, they will slowly rotate, projecting the patterns on the lanterns, just like a flowing painting, very beautiful, such a precious baby, you are actually willing to hang it at the door! "
Not only the two of them, but the other old men also nodded their heads, and even felt a little painful.
Ye Tian glanced at these old men, then looked at the two stone lions and the four octagonal glazed palace lanterns at the door, and then smiled and said:
"Your eyes are so sharp, you can tell at a glance, yes, the pair of stone lions and the four octagonal glazed palace lanterns at the door are all from the Qing Palace and are valuable antique relics.
This pair of stone lions are treasures I found in the United States, and then I transported them back to China. They are placed here. The stone lions and stone drums that were originally placed at the entrance of this mansion were all taken into the warehouse by me.
The four octagonal glazed palace lanterns hanging on the gate are the treasures I found at the Potterbelu Market in London, England. I bought them and sent them back to China. Today, this day comes in handy.
The four octagonal glazed palace lanterns are usually not hung at the door, but hung in the yard. The pair of stone lions have been placed here. As for the safety issue, don’t worry at all, I have my own way to protect them.”
Hearing what Ye Tian said, the old men all chuckled lightly and looked at the security personnel standing not far away.
is not that right! Who can take advantage of this kid like Ye Tian? I have never heard of it before, no matter who it is, if you want to fight this pair of stone lions, it is no different from seeking a dead end.
Without even thinking about it, the current Lishi Hutong must be under the control of the kid Ye Tian. Anyone who enters this alley will not be able to escape the eyes of his security personnel.
And this kid also intends to buy and renovate the whole Lishi Hutong. If this real estate transaction is really achieved, then there is no doubt that this Lishi Hutong will become his private domain.
Standing at the door and admiring these antique relics for a while, Ye Tian brought Shan Lao and Ma Ye into the door and walked into the courtyard.
As soon as they entered the door, the eyes of these old men were immediately attracted by the various furnishings inside the door, and they were amazed.
"Nine Spring Colors! And it's such a huge brick-carved shadow wall, which is rare in Beijing today. It's an eye-opener today!"
"There are also two colorful flower pots with plum blossoms. They are all antique porcelain from the mid-Qing Dynasty. They are a pair and have a certain value."
"Even the solid wood shelves with bonsais are mahogany furniture from the late Qing Dynasty. These bonsais are also very good and give people a feeling of spring."
A few old men admired the various furnishings in front of them, while admiring and discussing, their eyes were almost running out.
Ye Tian stood on the side, looking at these elders with bright eyes with a smile, with a somewhat triumphant look in his eyes.
After a while, he smiled and said:
"Several old men, let's invite it inside. There are many good antique artworks in the yard, and the scenery is also very good. You can enjoy it slowly."
Following his words, Shan Lao and Ma Ye suddenly woke up and turned to look at Ye Tian.
Next, Ye Tian took these old men to turn left, around the shadow wall, and walked to the Chuhua Gate leading to the first courtyard.
Same as before, as soon as I entered here, the eyes of the old men were drawn away again, looking at the various furnishings in front of them.
At this time, on the doors of the inverted rooms on your left hand side, there is a bright red word "Happy", and there are several palace lanterns hanging on the eaves of the carved beams, full of festive flavor.
On the veranda opposite to the inverted house, each assorted window is posted with a happy character, which complements the bonsai in the middle of the two-layer tempered glass of the assorted window.
At the western end of the inverted house, there is a huge mackerel fish tank with sparkling water and a few colorful goldfish swimming freely in it.
Because of the distance, it is temporarily impossible to identify the blue and white fish tank, but Shan Lao and Ma Ye are very clear in their hearts that the blue and white fish tank must also be a valuable antique cultural relic.
The various exquisite patterns carved on the walls, the veranda, and even the floor tiles, as well as the ‘Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum’ carved on the steps in front of the Suihua Gate are also very interesting.
Look at the Chuhua Gate leading to the first entrance courtyard. On both sides of the door, there is a Spring Festival couplet which means auspiciousness, and two red happy characters are pasted on the Chuhua Gate.
The red carpet that extends from the gate extends all the way to here, and then through the hanging flower gate in front, it extends into the inner courtyard.
Talking room~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Everyone has come to this Chuhua Gate, stopped in front of the steps, and looked at the courtyard inside the gate.
Immediately afterwards, there was a voice of emotion on the scene.
"Ye Tian, your kid is so shameless and enjoys life! There is no doubt that this is definitely the most beautiful courtyard I have ever seen. Although it is no bigger than a few palaces, it is far more exquisite!"
"Canopy fish tank with pomegranate tree, old man fat dog and fat girl, this is the real old Beijing courtyard life! Compared with this mansion gate, our yard is not worth mentioning, just throw it away!"
While sighing with emotion, the eyes of these old men all flashed with envy, even a little jealous.
All these, the antique works of art that can be seen everywhere, and this leisurely life, can you not feel enviable?
Seeing the performance of these old men, Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckle.
"The people living in this mansion are mainly my elders, grandparents, parents, etc. The environment here is really good, and living in this mansion is indeed a pleasure.
But I dare not live here for a long time, because I am afraid that the extremely comfortable environment here will kill my fighting spirit. After all, I am still young, and I have not put down all the years to enjoy life, and have to continue to struggle! "
Hearing this, the old men couldn't help rolling their eyes in angrily, and vomiting secretly.
Are you kid still fighting? Not enough money! Still let others live?
