Do you have any friends with the surname 'Ma'?

To the north of the Wenmiao Temple in Hunyuan, there is a large courtyard called 'Ma Family Courtyard,' covering an area of 3411 square meters. What does that mean? A standard football field is 7140 square meters, so now you understand that this courtyard is not small, right? The owner, Ma Xizhen, was a juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations) in the late Qing Dynasty. It is said that four generations of the family once lived here, but it has now become a small museum exhibiting the lifestyle of people in the past and some historical relics. The entrance fee is 10 yuan. As soon as you enter, you see a luxurious bicycle in the hall, which the manager says was a gift from a foreign friend. It looks quite beautiful. As you go further inside, you can see the boudoir of a young lady from the past. The stairs leading up are very narrow, and it's unclear whether they were meant to prevent her from coming down or someone else from going up.
