Compared to Hu Family Village in Nanhe Town, the village in Zhongyu Town was clearly better off. Their terrain was relatively flat, and the surrounding mountains were quite far away. It was one of the few villages that were not affected by the snow disaster.

The courtyard made of red bricks looked a little dilapidated because it had not been repaired for a long time. The roof was half covered with tile and half with straw.
