The ground is paved with bluestone slabs, and tender green grass grows in the gaps between the slabs, adding a touch of life and vitality to the whole courtyard.
Several tall locust trees are planted on both sides of the front yard, and stone tables and benches are placed under the trees. A chessboard is carved on the stone table, which can be used for people to play chess for entertainment.
This locust tree is no ordinary tree; it was carefully selected by Liu Feng from deep in the mountains and blessed by his array, making it an auspicious tree that can bring good fortune to the residents.
Passing through a hanging flower gate, you arrive at the central courtyard.
The central courtyard is the core area of the siheyuan (traditional courtyard house). It is a small garden with a pond in it. Goldfish swim freely in the water, adding a touch of lively beauty to the entire courtyard.
The pool is surrounded by artificial hills and bonsai, with streams flowing down the hills to form a small waterfall, giving people a fresh and natural feeling.
Mountains and water complement each other, symbolizing having a strong support system and abundant wealth.
On either side of the central courtyard are two large Chinese-style villas that Liu Feng prepared for his second aunt and his youngest aunt, only slightly smaller than his grandfather's villa.
Liu Feng made some special arrangements to make it more in line with the principles of feng shui balance, so that the energy field can be harmonious and stable.
All three villas are quite large; they could even accommodate four generations living together.
They also each have their own independent backyard. The backyard is smaller than the front and middle yards, but it is just as exquisite.
The backyard mainly consists of auxiliary rooms, such as the kitchen, woodshed, and warehouse.
In one corner, there are fruit trees, including apple, pear, and peach trees. In spring, the trees are covered with blossoms, and in autumn, they are laden with fruit, bringing people the joy of harvest and the sweetness of life.
After touring the courtyard house, everyone returned to the living room.
Looking at the joy on everyone's faces, Liu Feng felt a sense of satisfaction.
He said, "Great-Grandpa, from now on you and Grandma can live here in peace and enjoy your family life to the fullest."
Before her great-grandfather could refuse, He Qunfang again stuffed the house ownership certificate into He Jun's hand, saying, "Grandpa, please don't refuse anymore. The house is already built, and your names are clearly written on the certificate. Whether you want it or not, the house is yours now."
Hearing his eldest granddaughter say that, He Jun laughed heartily: "Haha, then Grandpa accepts!"
Seeing that He Jun agreed, He Qunfang was overjoyed: "This is the child's filial piety, so please don't be so polite with us. We'll bring my second sister and younger sister's family over another day. I can arrange jobs for them in the county town. It would be so nice if everyone could be together and have a good time."
The younger sister-in-law was overjoyed upon hearing this.
She had been hoping to find a job in the county town, and she never expected to find one so quickly. She exclaimed excitedly, "Big sister, you're so kind!"
He Qunfang smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you're pregnant now, don't get too excited. Your older sister has saved you a good job, so just stay home and rest and take care of your baby."
The younger sister-in-law said gratefully, "Thank you, elder sister!"
Seeing this situation, He Jun knew that even if he disagreed, it wouldn't work.
Then he said, "Feng'er, just let these helpers leave. We'll shamelessly move into this house."
Liu Feng replied, "Okay, once you're familiar with the environment here, I'll have Xiao Guo and the others leave."
Around noon.
A professional chef prepared a table full of delicious dishes. Everyone sat together, clinking glasses, laughing and chatting, creating a lively and joyful atmosphere.
He Qunfang was also infected by the festive atmosphere and said, "Feng'er, Mom wants to live here too."
Liu Feng said with a smile, "Mom, you can live wherever you want. Grandma's family has moved here now, which is close to our house, so you can live in either place."
