In the Qing dynasty, Jin farmers had a picture of "closed doors without reading pictures" The picture is like this: there is a house, sitting alone in a chair, calm and carefree, with sparse branches and leaves of an old tree behind the house, thin bamboo poles beside the house and few bamboo leaves. The composition of the whole picture is simple, and the pen is simple and elegant, creating a desolate artistic atmosphere and depicting the lonely mood of the people in the painting.
Above the picture frame, the painter has a unique theme. The sparse branches and leaves in the painting are skillfully connected with the lonely and desolate mood of the characters in the poem, which makes the poem and painting natural and far-reaching in artistic conception.
"Shut the door and don't look at the picture" attacked the indifference of the world. Obviously, this is related to the unfortunate experience of Jin Nong's personal life. There is a house and a person in the painting, which may be a portrayal of Jin Nong himself.
Jiang Yang, a female writer in China, borrowed the phrase "Old friends laugh more than trees in the atrium, and the autumn wind is sparse." These two sentences were written in her "Drinking Tea", and were extracted by netizens into Jiang Yang's famous sentences.
In this famous saying, these old friends and friends with good feelings are compared to Qiu Shu in the yard. Every day, the autumn wind blows, and the leaves become more and more sparse and less. Just like our friends, it will fade away with time, and fewer and fewer people can contact.
This sentence compares the sparseness of leaves to the fading scene of the relationship between characters at the end, which makes people feel that there is painting in poetry and love in painting, and the combination of emotion and scenery is perfect.
When people are old, sitting in the yard and seeing the trees in the yard, they think that old friends are getting less and less in touch, some are dead and some are lost.
Jiang Yang said in "Drinking Tea" that her father once said that when he was young, he also had many friends, chanting in a slow and long tone that "the old friend laughs more than the trees in the atrium, and the autumn wind is sparse every day." Jiang Yang suddenly found that her father was old. Although he often has friends, he feels very tired and lonely.
