What does Bo wearing a thin blanket on the octagonal floor mean?

The thin blanket on the octagonal floor means thin.

The Octagonal House is located in Xiangkeng Village, Dongyuan County, Heyuan City, Guangdong Province. It was built in the Qing Dynasty and is a large-scale and representative Hakka enclosed house in the area. More than 260 years ago, an elder named Ye Bensong entered politics during the Qianlong period. After retiring and returning to his hometown, he spent tens of thousands of taels of silver and spent 16 years to build a square castle-like building with a watchtower in each corner, commonly known as the Four Corner Tower. To ensure a foolproof defense against the enemy, a double-protected city wall was added to the periphery, and a 10-meter-high watchtower was set up at each of the four corners. The locals called it a stone tower.

Nowadays, the octagonal building has become the lobby of the hotel and the Lin Family Museum. It has an elegant posture and an angular shape without restraint. It can be called a classic among the old houses on Gulangyu Island. The origin of the Octagonal Tower actually originated from an accident. After Lin Weiyuan's eldest son Lin Erjia took charge of the Lin family, one day in 1915, his son caused an explosion while doing chemical experiments in the small building, which almost destroyed the small building. In addition to repairing the small building, Lin Erjia also invited French designers to build a new octagonal building between the building and the small building.

Introduction to the Octagonal House:

The Octagonal House in Xiankeng Village was built in the Qing Dynasty. It is a large-scale and representative Hakka enclosed house in the local area. The project follows the principle of authenticity and uses traditional materials and techniques for construction, preserving the historical and artistic value of the cultural relics building. The city wall of the Octagonal Tower is made of strips of granite. There are many secret passages inside. It is a veritable fortress that protects the Ye clan from wind and rain and protects them from disasters time and time again.

The octagonal tower that has experienced hundreds of years of wind and rain is definitely not the largest turret in Heyuan, but it is certainly the strongest. In 2008, the villagers of Xiankeng Village began to donate money voluntarily to repair the octagonal building. This renovation is not so much a memorial to the ancestors as it is a spiritual fortress for building a home. Although the appearance of the Octagonal Building is an elegant dark color, in its early years, its exterior walls were painted with a low-key and refined gray-black paint. It was elegant yet bold, and was also called "Wucuo" by the island residents.

The interior is in a high-profile and luxurious Baroque style. The designer reshaped the polygonal rooms like cutting diamonds, and the white arch lintels of the doors, windows, and entrance colonnade are inlaid with exquisite curly grass. The pattern relief highlights the owner's substantial family background. Looking in all directions from the Octagonal Tower, Sunlight Rock, Lujiang River, and old banyan trees change angles, and the sections of Gulangyu Island gradually unfold. And this may be the original choice of Lin Erjia, who used to be all-rounded.
