Mwana wake wamkazi wazaka 53, Ye Feiyan, amasunga zinthuzo kunyumba. Iye anafotokoza kuti malo oyamba a nyumba yosungiramo zinthu zakale adzagwetsedwa chifukwa cha kukonzanso kwa mzinda.
Chizindikiro cha sukuluyi chinalipo kale pakhoma la nyumba yosungiramo zinthu zakale yachinsinsi, kusonyeza alendo mbiri ndi mawu a masukulu ku China konse.
Amabwera m'mawonekedwe osiyanasiyana kuyambira kusukulu ya pulayimale mpaka ku yunivesite: ma triangles, rectangles, sikweya, mabwalo ozungulira ndi diamondi. Amapangidwa ndi siliva, golide, mkuwa, enamel, pulasitiki, nsalu kapena pepala.
Mabaji amatha kugawidwa m'magulu malinga ndi momwe amavalira. Ena amatsekedwa, ena amapindidwa, ena amamangiriridwa ndi mabatani, ndipo ena amapachikidwa pa zovala kapena zipewa.
