〖Introduction to the East Garden of Xidi Village〗 The "East Garden" corresponding to the West Garden was built during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty. The gate is not big, and there is a scroll-shaped painting on it. Hu Xingge's own cursive calligraphy has two characters "东园" and a postscript: "Yan Yi Dongyuan is a symbol of ancient times. In ancient times, the west side of the street was called Xiyuan. Nowadays, people who see this house and live in it forget it. It is said that it was written and kept for those who visit the ancient times. There is a well named Dongyuanjing behind the house, which is one of the records of Xingge's postscript. There is also a fan-shaped leaky window above the door, which corresponds to the leaky window formed by the autumn leaves on the wall of the left room, which means "raise your head to do good, and the fallen leaves will return to their roots." As the study room where the owner cultivated himself, the East Garden has an ingenious structure and is very interesting. At the tenth level of the entrance, there is an alley about several meters long. After passing through it, turn left to the hall, and you will suddenly see the light. There is a plaque with three characters "Yi Mo Ju" hanging in the hall. The doors of the wing rooms on both sides open to each other, facing the hall, but their wood carving patterns are asymmetrical. The door on the left is hexagonal and is engraved with a group of pictures of "five bats holding longevity", because bats are homophonic with blessing, which means longevity; the door on the right is round and is engraved with "Ice Plum Picture", which means "a cold window for ten years", " The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold." Hanging on the pillars are ancient wooden couplets with gold characters that are collected from Su Dongpo's poems. On the wall of the courtyard room in the main hall, there is an inscription nearly 70 centimeters long and 30 centimeters wide. Inscribed on it are the cursive words "Jie Zidequ" and the inscription: "The four brothers of Xingge inscribed the title, Hongshou" and a palindrome " Chen Hongshou" seal. "Jie Zi Dequ" is a sentence pattern of "one and three", "Jie means convergence". Chen Hongshou was one of the Eight Great Masters of Xiling in the Qing Dynasty. Not many of his calligraphy works have been handed down to the world, and this inscription is particularly precious.
The famous inscriptions were published early;
