    The quadrangle is the house in front of the triple courtyard and the gatehouse is added to close it. If it is in the shape of a "mouth", it is called a courtyard; The "day" shaped one is called the Erjin courtyard; The "目" shaped one is called the three-entry courtyard. Generally speaking, in the courtyard of a large mansion, the first entrance is the gatehouse, the second entrance is the hall, and the third or rear entrance is the private room or boudoir, which is the activity space of women or dependents, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter at will.

    The complete quadrangle courtyard is three courtyards, the first courtyard is the narrow courtyard where the inverted seat house dwells before the hanging flower door, the second courtyard is the wing room, the main room, the verandah, the main house and the wing room can also add the ear room, the third courtyard is the back cover room after the main house, open a door in the ear room of the main landlord, connect the second and third into the courtyard.

    In the whole courtyard, the old man lives in the north room (upper room), the middle is the large living room (middle hall room), the eldest son lives in the east room, the second son lives in the west room, the servant lives in the inverted seat room, and the daughter lives in the backyard, which does not affect each other. This also reflects the influence of traditional Chinese culture and philosophy.

    The two-entry courtyard is divided into the front yard and the back yard, and the back yard is also called the inner house. The front yard is composed of gatehouse and inverted seat room, the one that connects the front and back yard is generally the hanging flower door, some relatively simple residences use the moon gate, and the backyard is composed of the east and west wings, the main house and the verandah. There are also two-entry courtyards, such as the former residence of Mao Dun in Beijing, which does not separate the front yard from the hanging flower door, but adds a backyard behind the main house to build a back cover house for female dependents to live.
