The first floor of Jìwèi Residence served as a dining area for the common people, while the second floor was home to private rooms.

Bamboo was used for the walls of these private rooms, decorated with hung up calligraphy masterpieces from the masters of Bailu Academy, as a feast for the eyes of the dining students.

The rooms were further adorned with the "Four Treasures of Study", allowing enthusiastic students to express their creativity over a meal.

Furthermore, each room featured a flower stand, displaying silk-made plum, orchid, and chrysanthemum flowers, perfectly complementing the bamboo walls, a symbol of noble character.
