The homestead occupies a fairly small area, with a width of 30 meters and a depth of 35 meters.

Gu Jia's yard is next to Gu Mi's and is the same size.

Gu Mi's yard faces north and south, with the gate opening in the southeast corner. The gate of Gu Jia's yard opens in the southwest corner.

The rest of the design on the ground is basically the same, including the pair of 1-ton wooden gates.

The gate was made by chance, using several tons of red rosewood logs collected at a broken price.

The yard's gate, furniture, and porch are all made of redwood, although the cost of craftsmanship is much higher than the price of the logs.

All finished products are only coated with bright paint for anti-corrosion, without any fancy styling.

Looking from a distance, it looks solemn and solemn, with a sense of age.

The gate of the yard is composed of two mahogany gates that are 1.6 meters wide, 2.5 meters high, and 20 centimeters thick, weighing 1000 kilograms.

In Gu Mi's yard, the room facing south to the right of the gate is the tool room.

A whole row of 3-meter-high and 3-meter-wide storage shelves are neatly stacked against three walls, holding various commonly used and uncommon farm tools, household repair tools, etc.

There is a large wooden table in the middle, which is equivalent to a workbench.

To the left of the door is a garage with a width of 15 meters and a depth of 4 meters.

A steel rolling shutter door 6 meters wide and 3 meters high is installed on the north and south walls of the garage. Roller shutters are painted in the same color as the exterior walls.

The entire garage floor is equipped with a lift that leads directly to the basement.

To the west of the garage are two guest rooms.

The second door is composed of two mahogany doors 0.8 meters wide, 2.2 meters high and 10 centimeters thick.

To the left of the second door is a library. The width is about 12 meters.

There is a large desk 1 meters wide and 1.2 meters long placed at the entrance, with 2 chairs placed in a circle.

This is the reading area for family members.

Walking inside, the towering bookshelves are still made of mahogany. Rows of bookshelves are filled with densely packed books, divided into different categories like a bookstore.

The strong aroma of books came to my face.

On the right side of the second door is a video room and a game room. The audio-visual room is 1 meters deep and 1 meters wide.

There are three rows of sofas and chairs on the left hand side of the door, which can accommodate more than a dozen people watching movies at the same time.

A projector hangs above the sofa against the wall.

There is a TV cabinet on the right hand side of the door, with an LCD TV about 1.5 meters wide and 85 centimeters high placed on it.

There is a groove on the roof above the TV, which can lower a curtain 2.95 meters wide and 2.23 meters high.

There are no other extraneous furnishings in the room, just like a simple small cinema.

The game room is 5 meters wide, with computer desks arranged in circles on three walls, containing seven or eight computers.

Some of the younger generations of the Gu family like e-sports, some like astronomy, and some like IT. These computers are mainly for children to play with.

This room is like an Internet cafe box, well, it's a more retro kind.

The east wing is an open suite with a width of 1 meters and a depth of 7 meters. It is Gu Yiyi's suite.

The connection between the east wing and the south wing is a glass conservatory, which serves as a leisure tea drinking area.

The west wing houses the kitchen, boiler room and large dining room for family gatherings. The total width is 10 meters and the depth is 5 meters.

The main courtyard is about 10 meters deep and 15 meters wide.

The main house is about 6 meters deep.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a spacious hall with two imperial chairs directly opposite, and a high square table between the imperial chairs.

Behind the chair is a long table with some simple wood carvings on it.

There are several calligraphy hanging on the wall behind the coffee table, not famous paintings, but written by the younger members of the Gu family.

Every year, the Gu family will select the best calligraphy from the younger generation and frame it.

All the children in the Gu family are good calligraphers, and every year they work hard to choose calligraphy and paintings for the New Year.

Directly above the calligraphy and painting, there is a plaque with four large characters: Everything is renewed.

The characters were also written by the younger members of the Gu family, and they were changed every year.

These four characters represent Gu fans' expectations and imagination for the Gu family. They hope that the Gu family will become stronger with each generation.

There is also a retractable projector hidden on the roof.

On the left and right sides of the main hall, there are rows of Taishi chairs and coffee tables respectively.

There are screens behind the two rows of Taishi chairs. Behind the screens are the bedrooms of Gu Mi and Mrs. Ren respectively.

The design of this hall adopts the ancient hall style, which is grand and heavy.

The bedrooms on both sides are not large, about 30 square meters, and the living room and bedroom are placed together.

There are fireplaces in the two bedrooms, and a fire pit in Mrs. Ren's room.

Moreover, Mrs. Ren, who is getting older, would sleep better if she has a heated bed. Although Mrs. Ren is already over 7 years old and still strong, she has suffered from leg and back pain for many years.

The kang can be used for burning alone or with the help of the heat from the fireplace. The flue of the fireplace leads directly to the fire pit and then to the chimney on the roof.

The west bedroom where Gu Mi lives is connected to a wing room, which is Gu Mi's independent study room.

There are corridors on the left and right sides of the main house leading to the backyard. In addition to a gravel path of more than 1 meter, Mrs. Ren planted shade-loving lettuce, leek, cabbage, lettuce, etc. on the land against the wall.

The back room is the residence of the younger generations of the Gu family. There are three guest rooms with a depth of 3 meters and a width of 5 meters. They are all single-family units.

There is also a small living room for the children to play.

There is an animal room 7 meters wide and 4 meters deep on the east side of the backyard, where Mrs. Ren can raise some chickens and ducks to play with.

In the second courtyard and the backyard, in addition to the hand-held verandah, wind and rain corridor, and several stone paths, Mrs. Ren planned and planted various vegetables in other locations.

There is even a specially built glass greenhouse behind the main house, which is 15 meters long, 2.5 meters wide, and 2 meters high, allowing Mrs. Ren to have the freedom to produce fruits and vegetables all year round.

The interior decoration of the house is in the new Chinese style, and the furniture is mainly made of mahogany. The whole house has floor heating and coal-fired water heating.

The area that needs to be decorated is decorated with works of art carved by the younger members of the Gu family using mahogany scraps and their own calligraphy and paintings.

From the outside, this courtyard looks like an ordinary courtyard house.

Its real strength is the invisible inner.

The seemingly ordinary red brick courtyard wall is actually only tiled on the outside, and the center is made of cement. It is 100 centimeters wide, 3 meters high, and the foundation buried in the soil is only 2 meters.

Hitting it with a car will only shatter the car and not shake the high wall.

There were densely packed broken glass hanging vertically above the courtyard wall. In a legal society, there is basically no need to guard against thieves.

However, Gu Mi has prepared the power grid in the tool room in advance. If needed one day, it can be installed at any time.

The walls of each house are 80 centimeters, made of poured cement, with an 8-centimeter thick steel plate inlaid in the center.

A thick insulation layer is made outside the cement wall, and a layer of blue bricks is pasted on the outside for decoration.

The floor and roof are also inlaid with 8cm steel plates for ordinary exterior decoration.

The house is waterproofed in three layers from the inside to the outside and from top to bottom, leaving no gaps or corners.

One is to improve the compactness and impermeability of the concrete structure itself for waterproofing.

One is to add a metal waterproof layer that is used in underwater construction on the surface of the structure.

Finally, all parts of the house were covered with waterproof coating.

Waterproofing engineers say that this approach will prevent the entire house from leaking even if it is soaked in water for 100 years.

This is exactly what Gu Mi wants to achieve.

The entrance door is made of two doors. The outer door is made of mahogany, and the inner door is equipped with a tempered explosion-proof door.

The windows are large pieces of explosion-proof glass, double-layered. Each window has an escape window.

The doors and windows are also waterproof to the extreme, ensuring that as long as the doors and windows are closed, no water or gas will be exposed into the room.

Extreme waterproofing requires an extreme ventilation system.

Ventilation openings are located on the roof.

The whole house has been equipped with a solid-state oxygen generator, which can ensure that even if the vents are closed and the entire house becomes a sealed environment, normal breathing and living can be achieved.

Gu Mi is serious about being a safe house.
