Two orioles sing green willows,
A line of egrets rose into the sky.
The window contains autumn snow in Xiling,
Mambo Wu Dong Wan Li Ship.

Once upon a time, there was a unique chef. The dishes he cooked are not only delicious, but also accompanied by beautiful poems. Therefore, he is well-known and has got an elegant nickname-"Poetry Chef".
A learned scholar was not convinced, so he invited several students to be his guests, deliberately giving the poem chef a difficult problem: he only took two raw eggs and a green leaf, and he had to hold a banquet, and every dish should be accompanied by a suitable poem.
Many people at the scene think that this is deliberately difficult and impossible, but the poetry chef readily accepts it.
Later, the banquet was opened, and the poetry chef asked the philosophers to sit down and began to serve in turn:
The first one is two yellow-stewed eggs, dotted on several long strands of vegetables, and there is a poem-"Two orioles sing green willows";
The second step is to cut the cooked protein into small pieces and arrange them in a straight line. There is a green vegetable leaf under it, and there is a poem-"A line of egrets goes up to the sky";
The third is to put a pinch of fried protein in the blue-edged dish to match the poem-"Xiling Window with Snow";
The fourth course is a bowl of clear soup with seasoning, with four eggshells floating on it. Attached to the poem-"The Ship of Wu Dong and Wan Li";
These four sentences are actually the third of Du Fu's four quatrains. According to the content of this quatrain poem, the "Poetry Chef" skillfully made two eggs into four very distinctive dishes, which were rich and appropriate, which was a stroke of genius. The scholars were impressed and amazed.
