Why did the ancients name the house? Such as Liang Qichao's "Drinking Ice Room" and Gui Youguang's "Xiang".

The ancients were modest and polite. They generally called other people's homes your home, your home or your home, but modestly called their own homes my humble abode, my house, my thatched cottage or our village. However, in order to express their preferences or ambitions, no matter whether the study is large or small, luxurious or simple, scholars often have a unique name, which is both elegant and interesting. For example, Lu You's study in his later years was the "Old Learning Temple", which means it is never too old to learn. Pu Songling's study is called Liaozhai, and there are many examples of chatting with the ghost fox to relieve loneliness, such as Hu Shi's Hidden Light Room, Zhou Zuoren's Endless Zhai, Yao's Elegant Room, Liang Shiqiu's Farm Hall, Jia Pingwa's Xu Jingcun and Feng Zikai's.
