最初，室内的墙壁和天花板都是用纸覆盖的。文件也贴在窗户上。使用加热的康，它可以很好地度过一个严冬。这座80厘米高的突出的檐篷确保了冬季充足的阳光和凉爽的夏季室内，这是一个伟大的荣誉翻新这座最高的主楼在山区。

Originally, the interior walls and ceilings were all covered with paper. Papers were also plastered on windows. With the use of heated kang, it can well survive a severe winter. The 80 cm projecting cornice ensures sufficient sunlight in winter and a cool interior in summer.It is a great honor to renovate this supreme principal house in the mountains.

除了主楼外，院内的其他建筑都是新建的。通过使庭院下沉，降低建筑物的深度，降低檐柱，保证了北方农舍的宽度，同时保持了主建筑的宏伟。

Besides the principal house, other buildings in the inner courtyard are all newly constructed. By sinking the courtyard, decreasing the depth of the building, and lowering the cornice, the design ensures the wideness of northern farm houses while maintaining the grandeur of the main building.
