The willow branches in the garden sway in the wind. Green plantains and red pomegranates are decorated with ancient stalagmites. Palm, calamus and mimosa are planted in front of them and placed in the court. Scholars sat on the lacquer couch and porcelain pier of “Tiaoxi”, two pairs of chess pieces and two onlookers, with concentrated expressions; Several waiters were holding Ruyi, and the round fan was at the side. Eight folding screens are placed in the center, which can prevent wind outside the furnishings. The screen heart is painted with Mijia landscape, with clouds spreading over the mountainside, trees hazy, and cottages looming. The white marble railings behind the screen, the railings carved with dragons with clouds around the mouth opening and tongue uttering, and the square lotus shaped capitals are all official stone working methods of the Ming Dynasty.
