On the other side, my mother was explaining the relationship between the two people in front of her with black lines all over her head, so that Betty would not misunderstand and get inexplicably jealous.

"The girl in the down jacket is called Linlin, she is the daughter of Uncle Ye Tian's second uncle, she goes to university in Beijing, the relationship between the two of them is very good, and they often mess around like this.

Linlin's parents are both doctors, and they are very busy with work. They also lived in this courtyard when they were young. Except for grandparents, Xiaotian took her the most. This little girl is also very clingy to Xiaotian! "

"The relationship between their brothers and sisters is so good, I am a little envious!"

Betty chuckled and said in a low voice, her eyes fixed on the two guys in front of her.

"Brother! You're so annoying. You hit people on the forehead as soon as we meet. Let's forget it this time. If you dare to hit me on the forehead again in the future, I will definitely be in a hurry with you!

Even if I can't beat you, I can still let my aunt deal with you. If not, there are still grandparents. I don't believe I can't cure your stinking problem! "

Linlin was still struggling, and kept saying harsh words.

"What happened when I grew up? What happened when I went to college? In my eyes, you will always be that little girl with a snotty nose, a follower, and a little tail!

Besides, you are a big girl, what do you look like when you are in a hurry all day long? Is the house on fire or what? Just like you, I am really worried about your future! "

Ye Tian continued to tease his younger sister, trying his best to show off his poisonous tongue skills.

After saying these words, he let go of the right arm that imprisoned his sister, and at the same time quickly took two steps back, in case the little girl became angry from embarrassment, and used both hands to perform the magic trick of scratching.

"Ahhh! I'm dead, it's too bullying!"

Linlin jumped and shouted, but there was nothing she could do about Ye Tian.

In desperation, she could only rush to her mother, hold her mother's arm and relentlessly complain.

"Auntie! Just look at my brother, he knows how to bully me, and you don't care about it. He has the nerve to say about me for all the troubles he caused in the United States. How thick-skinned!"

"Hahaha, you two are living ancestors, who can control it!"

My mother laughed and said, happily.

Immediately afterwards, my mother changed the subject immediately.

"Linlin, this is Betty, your brother's girlfriend, who lives in Boston, USA; Betty, this is Ye Tian's cousin, named Ye Beilin"

"Good evening, Linlin, nice to meet you, you look so beautiful"

Betty took the initiative to say hello to Linlin and gave her a warm hug.

"Hi, Betty, I am also very glad to meet you. Compared with the video, you are more sexy and beautiful in real life. My brother is really a lucky guy!"

Linlin's English is very fluent, and she sent out a series of compliments immediately.

In the blink of an eye, the two beauties, one Chinese and one foreign, became one with each other, like best friends who grew up together!

"Go! Let's go home, your grandpa and the others should have heard the sound of the door."

Dad pointed to the gate of the courtyard and said, and walked into this ancient courtyard first.

Behind him, Mom, Betty and the others walked in, and finally Ye Tian and Raymond were pushing the luggage.

When everyone walked into the gate, Ye Tian stopped, turned around and closed the gate.

Next is a good time to enjoy family affection, please decline all interruptions!

...

Bypassing the screen wall at the end of the door opening and passing through a newly built vertical flower gate, a simple and neat small courtyard is presented in front of everyone.

The first thing everyone saw was a square courtyard paved with blue bricks, about sixty to seventy square meters, and it was very tidy.

There are more than 20 flower pots on the ground and on several wrought-iron flower stands by the side of the courtyard, but it is the midwinter season, and the flowers and plants in the flower pots have all withered, and it looks somewhat bleak.

But it is conceivable that

When spring comes, these flowers and plants will rejuvenate, bloom and compete for splendor, bringing spring to this small courtyard.

In the northeast corner of the courtyard stands a tall persimmon tree, at least several decades old.

In spring and summer, its luxuriant branches and leaves can effectively block the direct sunlight, bringing coolness to the courtyard, which is extremely pleasant!

In late autumn, persimmons like red lanterns will be hung all over the branches, giving people the feeling of infinite autumn, full of poetic and picturesque.

At this moment, the persimmon tree is bare, only the branches that are completely exposed and pierce the sky. Although it lacks vitality, it has a strong taste.

Under the persimmon tree, there is a medium-sized fish tank with a diameter of 10 centimeters.

The fish tank is gray and black, placed on a millstone base, it is very stable, the tank body is carved with auspicious patterns, the appearance is mottled, and it has a bit of historical charm.

Standing on the steps of the hanging flower gate, with a little tiptoe, you can vaguely see the shadow of goldfish swimming comfortably in the fish tank, adding a bit of vivid color to the small courtyard!

Due to the special architectural pattern of Beijing courtyard houses, each closed courtyard house will form a relatively independent microclimate.

In summer, the temperature in the courtyard is generally a few degrees lower than that on the street outside, and it doesn’t seem so hot. If there is a canopy and shade in the courtyard, it will be cooler and more pleasant!

In the winter when the north wind is howling, the relatively closed structure of the courtyard house will keep the biting cold wind outside, so that the small courtyard will not be so cold.

This is why people keep goldfish in their yards.

In the bleak winter, a tank of goldfish will undoubtedly bring some color and vitality to life, and there is basically no need to worry that the water will freeze and the goldfish will freeze to death!

Except for extreme weather, of course.

After entering the modern society, people who love fish farming don't have to worry about this problem. There are plenty of ways to keep the water temperature in the fish tank.

In the northwest corner of the courtyard, under a wisteria trellis, there is a round stone table with a diameter of nearly one meter, and there are several stone drum round stools around the stone table, which is quite ancient.

In Ye Tian's eyes, they are indeed a few antiques with a history of more than 180 years, emitting a dazzling red light, although the value is quite ordinary.

This set of stone tables and benches is a place for grandpa to play chess with old friends in the alley, and it is also a place for family members to chat and chat. It is very practical.

In the southwest corner of the courtyard, there is a small house with a cover, which is a little inconsistent with the overall style of the courtyard.

This is a house built after the earthquake. It has existed since Ye Tian could remember. It is the kitchen of the family.

In addition, there are some other things scattered in the yard, but they are not cluttered, but it makes the yard more life-like and more intimate.

To the north of the courtyard, there are three spacious and bright north rooms facing south, which are also the main room. At this time, the lights are bright and the radiant light seems to give people a warm feeling.

These three main rooms are used by grandparents, and the middle one is the decision-making center of the family.

On the left and right sides are the east and west wing rooms, each with two rooms, the steps are slightly lower than the main room, and the windows are also bright and brightly lit.

When I was young, Ye Tian's family lived in the east wing, and my uncle's family lived in the opposite west wing.

On the same side as the vertical flower gate, there are two south rooms, also called inverted seats, which are the guest rooms of the family, and used to be the boudoir of the sister-in-law.

Although this is an old courtyard house with a long history, you can see the traces of the years everywhere, but it is very well maintained, it is an excellent residence, and it is a warm home!

People who come in through the vertical flower gate have a general understanding of this courtyard in an instant.

However, this is not everyone's concern.

What everyone cares about is the people living in this small courtyard. That is the reason for the existence of this courtyard, and that is the reason why people are haunted by dreams.

Because of the flowers, trees and goldfish, this place is full of vitality and aura; because of family affection, this place is full of warmth and touch, which is infinitely yearning!

Ye Tian stood on the steps of the Chuihua Gate, feeling extremely agitated, and his breathing became much faster.

His eyes were fixed on the door of the main room, and he was not willing to move away for a moment. Tears had already appeared in his eyes, and they might flow down his cheeks at any time!

On the steps at the door of the north room, two hale and hearty old men in their 70s and 80s stood side by side, smiling, looking at Ye Tian at the side of the Chuihua Gate, their eyes full of kindness! Also full of joy!

No need to ask, these are Ye Tian's grandparents, who he wants to kneel down and kowtow to,

Next to grandparents and other places in the yard, there were several people standing scattered, big and small, including second uncle, second aunt, aunt, uncle, and younger siblings.

Without exception, everyone in the yard looked at Ye Tian who was standing at the door of Chuihua, and everyone had the brightest smile on their faces.

"hiss!"

Ye Tianchang took a breath of cold air, and used it to slightly suppress the boiling emotions.

In the next moment, he strode down the steps of the hanging flower door, took Betty's hand directly, and walked quickly to the north room.

"Honey, there are my grandparents in front, let's go there!"
