Bucket handle of the Big Dipper turned to the east last night and got up again this morning.
I am forty years old. Although I have no official position, I am worried about farming.
A farmer working in a field full of mulberry trees is carrying a hoe and working with a shepherd boy.
Tian said that this year's climate is abundant.
Last night, bucket handle of the Big Dipper turned to the east. I got up this morning and the new year began again. In the countryside, farmers carry hoes and work in fields covered with mulberry trees, and shepherds work together. Looking up at the sky, the farmer speculated that the new year should be another bumper year.

Except for the one-year-old in firecrackers,
The spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu.
Thousands of families are dying,
Always trade new peaches for old ones.
Amid the noise of firecrackers, the old year passed. Drinking Tu Su wine happily in the warm spring breeze. On the first day of the new year, the rising sun shines on the doors and windows of thousands of families, and people take off the old peach charms and put on new ones.
I wish you a new atmosphere and good luck in the new year.
