Introduction to the window carvings of "Bai Fu Tu": There are a total of ninety-eight bats carved on the window sash on both sides of the patio of the ancient house behind the "Zihou Tang", plus two on the skirts of the two flower doors. , as many as one hundred in total. The word "bat" in bat is homophonic with the word "福" in blessing, and Chinese people are used to thinking that bat means "blessing", so it is called the "Hundred Blessings Picture", which means everything goes smoothly and all wishes come true. Other relatively exquisite carvings in ancient houses include the "Poem Couplet Window Sash" in Shuinan Village and the "Hundred Birds" in Songjie's private residence in Jingtai.
