There was a heavy snowfall all night, and it stopped at about 9:30 in the morning, but the sky in Beijing was still cloudy.
Because they slept very late last night, Ye Tian and Betty got up very late. When they got up, the snow outside had stopped for a while.
After getting up and washing, the two of them left the north room together, ready to go to the inner courtyard to greet grandparents, and then go to have breakfast.
Next, Ye Tian will leave the house to deal with various affairs.
Some of the top antique artworks and rare books that have just arrived in Beijing last night need to be sent to their own personal exhibition halls for display, and some need to be transferred to other vaults for separate storage.
Ye Tian and Betty had just walked out of the north house, and they were about to walk along the hand-written veranda to the inner courtyard. There was a burst of hearty laughter from the front garden.
This piece of laughter couldn't be more familiar, coming from Evelyn and his own mother respectively.
Hearing laughter, Ye Tian and Betty stopped immediately and looked at the moon gate leading to the garden.
At this time, the snow in the yard had been swept away, piled under a few trees, but the snow on the garden side was not cleaned, obviously it was left deliberately.
looked into the garden through the moon gate. There were many chaotic footprints on the path in the garden, leading to the depths of the garden.
Don't ask, those footprints are obviously left by my mother and Evelyn.
looked at the situation on the moon gate, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:
"Honey, let's go to the garden, my mother and Evelyn are in the garden"
"Okay, my dear, I also want to see the beautiful scenery in the garden after the snow"
Betty nodded in response, and then she could not wait to step out and walked towards the garden.
Ye Tian chuckled softly, and followed him.
As soon as they entered the garden, they saw Evelyn standing in front of the snow-covered rockery, holding a mobile phone to take selfies, as well as my sister-in-law and mother. All of them were smiling and having a great time.
Not far from the side, Logan squatted by the koi pond, admiring the colorful and freely swimming koi, and studied some Taihu rocks erected in the koi pond.
The koi pond has a heating function to protect the valuable and rare koi in the pond and also to prevent the water surface from freezing in the pond.
At this time, the water vapor in the koi pond is transpiring, and the koi leaps up from the water from time to time, showing its graceful posture over the water.
In addition, the Taihu stones of various shapes in the pool, the white snow on the shore ground, flowers and trees, pavilions and pavilions, and several plum blossoms proudly blooming in the cold wind.
All of these together constitute an extremely beautiful picture that is fascinating.
Seeing this scene, Betty couldn't help stopping, and said intoxicated:
"It's really beautiful here, it looks like the most beautiful landscape painting, it's too beautiful to be true"
Ye Tian stepped forward, gently hugged Betty in his arms, and then whispered:
"My dear, this exquisite private garden and this picturesque scenery are all yours now, and you can enjoy them. In fact, what you see now is only the winter snow scene of this garden.
When the spring arrives, the flowers will be in full bloom and colorful, and the scent released by all kinds of beautiful flowers will surround the entire courtyard. In summer and autumn, there will be another beautiful scenery here.
There are flowers that do not thank you for the four seasons, the grass of the eight-section periwinkle here, the koi that swims freely, and the singing birds happily, but more importantly, there is the warmest family affection here, this is our home! "
Listening to what Ye Tian said, Betty was completely drunk.
She nestled in Ye Tian's arms, admiring the picturesque scenery in the garden, unable to speak for a long time.
Ye Tian is the same, hugging Betty in his arms, admiring everything in front of him intoxicated, forgetting time and everything else outside.
After a long time, the two of them woke up one after another, and then walked over to the mother and Evelyn.
came to the front, before they waited for the two of them to greet good morning, Evelyn said excitedly:
"Good morning, Steven, this courtyard is really great. It's like a luxurious palace. Especially this exquisite garden is definitely one of the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen. I love the scenery here too much. Up!"
"Good morning, Evelyn, thank you for your compliment. This is my home and Betty's home, and naturally you and Matthew's home. If you really like this place, you might as well stay here, we are very welcome."
Ye Tian said with a smile, and sent out an invitation.
"Wow! To live here often, to live in such a beautiful and picturesque environment, it must be a wonderful thing, fascinating!"
Evelyn exclaimed, her expression quite exaggerated.
Next, Ye Tian and Betty greeted their mother and sister-in-law again.
While was talking, the moon gate on the west side of the garden suddenly heard the sound of laughing and playing.
Before the sound fell, Linlin and Chenxi had hopped into the garden and ran straight to this side.
Seeing these two girls, Ye Tian smiled softly, then turned back and asked:
"Mom, how about my dad and Matthew? It's such a great snow queen, wouldn't it be a pity not to come and enjoy it"
Hearing this, my mother immediately smiled and said:
" Long before you and Betty got up, your grandfather, your father, and your father-in-law, they had already been to the garden. Your grandfather came to walk the birds, and your father came to enjoy the scenery.
They don’t take pictures. After walking around here, they went to the inner courtyard to admire the antique artworks collected by your grandfather. They are obviously more interested in those things.”
"That's it, you guys continue to enjoy the scenery here, be careful not to freeze, and Betty and I go to the inner courtyard to ask my grandparents good morning and have breakfast by the way"
"Okay, go ahead, and leave breakfast in the restaurant in the west wing of the inner courtyard. There are Chinese breakfast and Western breakfast. You are free"
"That's it, Mom, let's go first"
After speaking, Ye Tian took Betty out of this beautiful garden and walked to the inner courtyard.
Just as my mother said.
When he entered the main room of the inner courtyard, Ye Tian saw at a glance that Grandpa, Dad, and Matthew were all gathered in front of a huge Huanghuali table. They were quite focused on admiring everything.
Don’t ask, the things placed on that book case must be the top calligraphy and painting artworks collected by Grandpa.
Seeing this scene, Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckled softly, and then led Betty over.
When they came to the front, the two of them first asked grandpa good morning, and then greeted several other elders one by one The calligraphy and painting artwork placed on the book table naturally appeared. In front of Ye Tian.
It was a painting by Xu Wei, a famous painter and great talent in the Ming Dynasty. It painted a snow scene of fishing alone on the cold river, which is very much in line with today's scene.
Ye Tian couldn't be more familiar with this painting.
This is a painting he received from the antique flea market in Saint-Tuan in Paris, and then his sister-in-law brought it back to Beijing and gave it to his grandfather, which became his private collection.
When I returned to Beijing before, Ye Tian explained this top art to his grandpa and the others, so I don’t need to talk about it anymore. It is undoubtedly best for them to slowly appreciate the research.
I greeted my grandfather and dad, Ye Tian and Betty went to the adjacent room next to them again to greet my grandma.
Seven or eight minutes later, the two of them walked out of the North Room and walked to the West Room, ready to eat some breakfast.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Ye Tian saw that the nanny and chef at home were busy, cleaning the restaurant and preparing for the noon lunch.
"Morning, Aunt Zhao, Uncle Liu, we wake up late, come over and eat something"
Ye Tian greeted the nanny and the chef, and Betty also nodded at the two with a smile, which is considered hello.
Then, the two of them came to the table and prepared to have breakfast.
But when Aunt Zhao brought the breakfast, Betty frowned slightly.
