There are huge floor-to-ceiling windows on one side. We sat at the table in front of the window and ate simple meals, purely Western-style meals.From Rose's introduction, I learned that he is an envoy sent by Britain and will live here for half a year.

I thought this was the British embassy area. When I asked, he shook his head regretfully: "Your emperor of the Qing Dynasty did not allow us to set up an embassy here, so we built this house here for people from our country to rest and work here. A temporary foothold."
