A spare parlour and bedroom I refurnished entirely, with old mahogany and crimson upholstery: I laid canvas on the passage, and carpets on the stairs.

新置了一间空闲的客厅和卧室，用的是旧的红木家具和深红色的装饰；在过道上铺了帆，在楼梯上铺了地毯。

And Instead of like in the Victorian era, you wanted to show your abundance and kind of cultivation by having lots of stuff and upholstery and fringe and lots of carved wood.

而在维多利亚时代，人们通过拥有品、装饰艺、流苏和雕刻木制品来展示自己的富足和教养。
