Whistle and bend over to eat rice
Song Dynasty: Su Shi
Tao Yuanming's poem "Return to Xi" has words but no sound. On the east slope, a snow hall was built on the top. Everyone laughs at its ugliness, but Dong Yifu of Poyang enjoys it exclusively, which means beggar-thy-neighbor. Is to put the word "come back" with a little parenthesis, let the melody ring, thus leaving Yi Fu behind. Is it a pleasure to make children's songs, follow Dongpo, make peace with thunder and buckle the horn for the holidays?
Bend down for food, abandon home for wine, and your mouth and body are tired. Come back, no one will send you back. It feels like the past is not the present. Not exposed. Husband is pointing the way home, and the laughter in front of the door is childish. Old chrysanthemums are scarce, new pines are old, and that's what I did this year. But the small window closes the knees, Chai Fei. Look at the lonely cloud flying with a scepter. Clouds come out unintentionally, birds know when they are tired and come out unintentionally.
Hey! Back and forth. Today I forgot myself and the world. Relatives have nothing to say, and piano books have real taste. The steps are rugged, the river is gentle and graceful, and the spring water flows in the dark valley. It is glorious to see every grass and tree, which makes people feel conscious, so that I can live and rest. How long does it take to meditate in space? What does the unconscious emperor want? It's up to me to decide whether to stay or not. Where does the fairy know? Wealth is not my ambition. But when you know that you are screaming on the mountain near the water, you are drunk. What is more doubtful fate in this life? And ride the current and stop when you encounter obstacles.

Tao Yuanming's "Return to Xi Ci" has words and sentences and no rhythm. After I landed on Dongpo, I built a snow hall on the slope. People laughed at Tang Xue's simplicity, but only Dong Yifu, a native of Poyang, liked it very much and made plans for his neighbors. So I took "Gui Xi Ci", slightly enclosed it to make it conform to the rhythm, and gave it to Dong Yifu. Let the servants at home sing. At that time, the servant followed me up Dongpo. I put down my farm tools and sang with him, blowing the horn for him. Are you happy?
I wronged myself in order to survive, and left my family in pursuit, exhausted physically and mentally. Go home. Who doesn't want me to go home? I feel that my past life is not what I expect now. The white dew on the roadside is still wet. Pedestrians showed me the way home, and there were laughing children in front of the door. The chrysanthemum fields once planted have been deserted, and the young pine trees have quietly aged, so I have to sigh that I am like them now. Only that small window allows me to stop and close the yard door. Pick up crutches, go to the window, and see the wind is high and the clouds are light, and the dusk birds return to their nests. Flying in the sky, I have no idea, the yellow bird returns to its nest, just instinct.
Oh, dear! Back to the countryside. Forget yourself and forget the world. There is nothing to talk about between relatives. Only music and literature can bring real happiness. Walking on the rugged path in the green hills, the tinkling stream is my companion, and there is also hope for spring in the dark valley. Seeing how lush the vegetation is, I lamented that life should end here. What kind of broken house can you figure out? Why are you always afraid? Restrain your thoughts, regardless of changes outside the door. Where will the gods only be? At least not for wealth. Only by the water's edge can you shout freely at the top of the mountain and surpass yourself with the wine in the pot. Isn't this the fate of ease as a fairy? Go ahead and stop when you meet a hurdle.

Make an appreciative comment
This word was formed by Tao Yuanming's Going Home. Attaching means cutting and rewriting the original text. This word just changed the sentence of "going home" a little, without changing the meaning, to make it conform to the rhythm.
The general idea of this word is "back and forth". Su Shi's love for Tao Yuanming lies in his appreciation of his abandonment of his official position and retirement. Su Shi is scarred in his official career and needs to get rid of it. "Going back" is his way to soothe his soul and escape from reality. The whole poem has never been written because of previous mistakes and the urgency of going there and coming here. I have written about coming back to enjoy the fun of traveling, the happiness of the country and the happiness of family gatherings. Finally, it is well written, well written. Although the meaning of this word comes from the poem "The Return of the Native", it expresses one's own embrace, which is different from the fact that there is no such realm in one's chest, just for fun.
The text of Tao Yuanming's farewell speech can be said to be very concise, without a nonsense. In this case, integration is quite difficult, which is beyond the ability of ordinary people. The beauty of Su Shi's works lies in his combination of the essence of "preface" and "prose" in Home. For example, the first sentence of "Whistle Biography" "Bend over to get rice" summarizes the reliable records of Tao Yuanming's historical biography; In the second sentence, "I abandoned my family because of wine", the words "the public land is full of wine, so I seek it" are condensed in the preface. The third sentence "mouth and body are tired", from "sequence" to "text", not only has the same taste, but also has the wonderful effect of introducing the main environment. Therefore, Su Shi's rewriting of the poem of returning home is actually an artistic creation.
