In January 2023, members of the Zheng family were busy cleaning the courtyard as the year drew to a close. By chance, in a corner of the warehouse, they discovered a pair of wooden engraved couplets written by their ancestor Zheng Yongxi (1788-1858), an accomplished scholar and  the first Taiwanese Jinshi (進士), having passed the highest level of  the imperial examination.

​

This couplet was composed by Zheng Yongxi in 1856, expressing his profound gratitude of the divine grace and the guidance of his teacher.
