Later, five floors and five bottoms were built in the back of the house. From three generations under his grandfather, he wished his father Pei Baoyu the first floor in the East, one floor and one arcade. Cai Yuanpei was born here on January 11, 1868. The second room in the east of the block is his study and bedroom. He lived here before the age of 28, when he worked in Shaoxing Zhongxi school (now Shaoxing No.1 Middle School) and when he returned home.
