Back to Field: Second Uncle Always Has a Way!

The show Mushroom House is being filmed in Suhang Village, isolated from the outside world. The guests run into trouble right from the start: they can't even put together a simple table and chairs.

"These are traditional pieces made from timber by Second Uncle. They use mortise-and-tenon joinery, a technique lost to time."

Think classic architecture can only be built with steel and concrete? Can you believe there's a grand hall that's stood for a thousand years without a single nail?

An international luxury brand's signature silhouette skirt? Sorry, it's the traditional Daxia horse-face skirt.

Think solving a Rubik's Cube makes you smarter? Sorry, Daxia's Luban Lock came along a hundred years earlier.

Daxia has no luxury goods? Take a look at jade carving, embroidery, paper cutting, colored glass, and blue-and-white porcelain...

Think Chinese-language music has no international standing? Listen to traditional guqin and pipa music at your own risk. We accept no responsibility if your ears get pregnant...

Second Uncle always has a way.

"Second Uncle, my ears aren't pregnant. But I am..."

"Second Uncle, thank you for making my dowry. But I'm not getting married, unless the person I marry is you!"
