The kind of house and furniture depends on the place they live and the area they live in. So if they live in a place which is more yellow (which is the northern part of China) your house color and furniture color is based on the area.
          They ate vegetables such as soy bean, mung beans (these beans are mostly from Asia), Chinese radish, dried mushrooms,etc. They ate fruit like oranges and melon. Their religion mostly drank tea sweet or not, or water. These are just some of the food they ate.
          The peasants wore hemp, a rough material made from plant fibers. The wealthy people wear silk clothing, made from cocoons of silkworms. Different colors mean different emotions for example, red means happiness.

In their religion if a child of a father disobeys the father can legally kill the child. The Chinese valued their sons more than their daughters. The Chinese religion gets married at a young age and do not know who they will get married to until their wedding day.
