Second, appreciate
Pastoral Miscellanies of Four Seasons is a group of large-scale family poems written by the poet after he retired from his hometown. There are 60 poems in total, which describe the rural scenery and farmers' life in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and also reflect the exploitation and hardship of farmers. This is one of them, which describes a scene of rural summer life.
The first sentence says: weeding in the fields during the day and rubbing hemp thread at night. "Tillage" means weeding. In early summer, the seedlings need weeding. This is what men should do. "Ji Ma" refers to women who rub twine and weave cloth at night after finishing other work during the day. This sentence directly wrote the labor scene.
The second sentence "the children in the village mind their own affairs" refers to men and women. The whole poem uses the tone of an old farmer, and "children" refers to young people. "Being in charge" means that both men and women are not allowed to be idle and mind their own business. In the third sentence, "children and grandchildren are not prepared for farming and weaving", and "children and grandchildren" refer to those children who can neither farm nor weave, but are not idle.
They have been in contact with and love labor since childhood, so they "learn to grow melons under the shade of mulberry trees", that is, they learn to grow melons under the lush mulberry trees. This is a common phenomenon in rural areas, but it is quite distinctive. The conclusion shows the naive interest of rural children. With a fresh style, the poet described the tense working atmosphere in rural areas in early summer more delicately.

Fan Chengda is famous for his literature, especially his poems.

Simple style, fresh and charming. Poetry has a wide range of themes, and the works that reflect the content of rural social life have the highest achievements. Together with Yang Wanli, Lu You and You Mao, they are also known as the "Four Masters of Zhongxing" in the Southern Song Dynasty.
His works had a significant influence in the late Southern Song Dynasty, especially in the early Qing Dynasty. There is a saying that "the home is south of the sword and the stone lake is home". He is the author of Shihu Collection, Lu Lan, Wu, Wu Junzhi and Gui Zhiheng.
Fan Chengda was deeply influenced by Jiangxi School. In some of his early works, we can see a lot of language stagnation, allusions piled up, and some arguments such as Zen and Confucianism. However, while studying Jiangxi's poetic style, Fan Chengda absorbed the style and skills of poetry in the middle and late Tang Dynasty.
He inherited the realistic spirit of Bai Juyi, Wang Jian, Zhang Jixin Yuefu and other poets, such as "Scorpio", clearly put forward that "Wang Jian is effective", and broke through the shadow of Jiangxi's poetic style on the basis of learning from others. In particular, many modern poems are euphemistic and beautiful, each with its own characteristics. His poems are light in style, but easy to learn.
