Chapter Two Thousand and Thirty-Eight: A Festive Morning
It's another sunny day, just like Ye Tian and Betty, as well as all the family members are feeling.
In the early morning, when the people living in Lishi Hutong walked out of their homes, they immediately found that this hutong, which they were all too familiar with, had become different from the previous few days.
At both ends of this alley, as well as at the intersection with Qianchou Mein Hutong and Dengcao Hutong, there are several police cars, many more uniformed policemen, and many plainclothes.
In addition, in these places, there are several aunts of the neighborhood committees who are very familiar to everyone, all wearing red armbands, assisting the police in their work.
Of course, these neighborhood committee aunts are also very familiar with the situation in the alley, and know most of the people who live in the alley, which is why they are here.
In addition to the uniformed policemen and the aunts of the neighborhood committees wearing red armbands, there are many unfamiliar faces at both ends of Lishi Hutong and even in many places in the alley.
These guys are Chinese, foreigners, yellows, whites and blacks, and even Hispanics.
Without exception, these guys are all in their twenties and thirties, all of them are tall, with a fierce aura all over their bodies, and each of them is equipped with walkie-talkies and is always on alert.
At the same time, in several different places in the alley, there are also seven or eight black SUVs parked.
Although they are parked in the alley, the engine is always running, never turning off, and can be started and rushed out at any time.
Another point is that today's Lishi Hutong looks particularly clean, there is no garbage on the ground, and it seems that the sanitation workers who are responsible for cleaning the Hutong today are particularly attentive.
The reason for this change in the hutong is very clear to the people who live in this hutong.
There is no other reason, because today is the day of Ye Tian's boy and his wife's make-up Chinese wedding, and the old neighbors and neighbors who live in this alley have been invited.
As for the neighbors who have only moved to Lishi Hutong in the past two years, as well as the people who live here, although they were not invited, they also knew about it and received a nice gift.
Those guys inside and outside the alley who are equipped with walkie-talkies and look quite tough, no need to ask, they are all Ye Tian's subordinates, and they are all well-trained security personnel.
Those police officers who came here early in the morning also came for this Chinese-style wedding to ensure that this wedding can go smoothly without any accidents.
However, what these neighbors didn't know was that in the adjacent Qianchou Mein Hutong and Dengcao Hutong, there were also security guards under Ye Tian, staring at the situation in those two alleys.
It is no exaggeration to say that at this time, Lishi Hutong has been guarded by the security personnel under Ye Tian, and anyone who walks into this alley alone cannot escape the sight of the security personnel.
And the No. 129 courtyard located in the middle of the alley, that is, the gate of the mansion where Ye Tian's family lives, is even more colorful at this time, and there is a sense of joy everywhere.
The two stone lions standing on either side of the gate of this mansion each have a huge red hydrangea hanging from their necks, and a red silk dress hanging down from their necks to the ground.
Above the bright gate guarded by two stone lions, there are two octagonal glazed palace lamps hanging on the left and right, which looks solemn and elegant, and is very magnificent.
If there are knowledgeable antique art appraisal experts among the guests, they will definitely be able to see that these four palace lamps are all antique cultural relics, and they come from the Qing court, and each palace lamp is very valuable.
The shape of these four palace lamps is basically the same, they are all octagonal glazed palace lamps, with three layers up and down, a total of eight sides.
However, the materials used to make these lanterns are completely different, including rosewood, nanmu, red sour branches and ebony, all of which are very precious woods.
In addition, on the eight faces of these antique glazed palace lamps, there are also exquisite patterns with different meanings, some patterns are auspicious dragons and phoenixes, some are early born noble sons, some are auspicious and so on.
It's a pity that it's daytime, and the most beautiful side of these antique palace lamps can't be displayed in front of people's eyes for the time being.
When night falls, when these four palace lanterns are lit, they will slowly rotate, and all the exquisite patterns drawn on the palace lanterns will be projected in the alley and on the shadow wall opposite.
At that time, the area in front of this mansion will be transformed into an active studio, which is called a Ambilight and beautiful!
Looking down along the four glazed palace lamps, the pair of vermilion doors had been opened early in the morning, with a happy word posted on both sides, and the gate was cleaned up cleanly, without a trace of dust.
Especially the four beast-faced brass hairpins, they are even more polished, and the light can be seen.
Looking down further, a red carpet was laid on the fifth-level double-hanging marble stomping outside the gate, extending all the way to the courtyard gate and the courtyard behind the shadow wall.
Looking in from this bright gate, there are several verdant bonsai on the left and right sides of the door, which brings a bit of spring to everyone who enters the door of this mansion in this cold winter day.
On the nine-fold spring color map of the shadow wall facing the gate, there is also a huge happy word, which is more festive and fresh under the backdrop of the two plum blossoms that are proudly blooming on both sides of the shadow wall.
As for the courtyard behind the shadow wall, what is going on is unknown for the time being, only by entering the door of this mansion can you find out, it must be more beautiful and more festive!
Although it was still early in the morning, the sun had just risen, and most of the guests invited to the wedding had not yet arrived, but the doors of the mansion were already bustling.
Outside the gate of the mansion, several security personnel stood scattered on the left and right, vigilantly staring at the situation in the alley.
The wedding planners employed by Ye Tian and several of his company employees are constantly coming and going, each busy.
Of course, Ye Tian's family, as well as Linlin and Dongzi's little guys, would also come out of the house from time to time to greet those relatives and friends who came scattered.
Without exception, whether it was the people who came out of the door of this mansion, or the relatives and friends who came in from outside the alley, everyone was full of smiles and excitement!
At around a quarter past seven, Ye Tian and Betty came out of the gate and came to the alley outside.
At this time, they did not change into formal clothes, and were still wearing casual clothes, which was not much different from the previous days.
At the same time as they came out, Dawei and Li Yun happened to walk to the door and were admiring the layout at the door.
Seeing Ye Tian and them, Dawei immediately joked and said:
"What do you mean by this? Xiaotian, didn't you and Betty have a Chinese wedding today, why did you come out wearing such a dress? Or is it because the two of us don't have enough weight?"
Ye Tian looked at this kid, and then said angrily:
"Don't be stinky, we're not here to greet you two, and I didn't know that you two would come here, I came out to meet my grandparents and grandfather, and they'll be there soon."
Since the two of you are here, then don't be cautious at the door, hurry up and go in to help, there is still a lot of work to be done at home, just go in and find my sister-in-law, she will arrange work for you"
"Yes, buddy is in pieces again, you two wait here, let's go in first."
Dawei nodded in response, and then walked into the courtyard with Li Yun.
As soon as the two of them entered, two cars drove from the west exit of the alley, grandpa and grandpa, and uncles and aunts.
