The main hall was spacious. Gu Fei had even had artisans create an indoor landscape, complete with a small pond. Within the pond, they had built a small rockery from stones and even kept goldfish. The edge of the pond was encircled by a variety of green plants.
A small, green bluestone arch bridge, over a meter long, spanned the pond, allowing people to walk across.
The Jiangnan region was famous for its gardens, so such scenery wasn't uncommon. However, no one had ever built a rockery, pond, and small bridge *inside* a building before.
For a moment, everyone found it incredibly novel.
Looking up, they saw the ceiling was filled with hanging lanterns of all shapes and sizes. Their colors and designs were all different, creating a dazzling and varied display.
Sister Dan clapped her hands. "Oh my, I just love this place."
"I've never seen a place so novel and interesting."
Everyone looked around and exchanged pleasantries, and noon arrived before they knew it.
