The meaning of the poem Qingpingle·Village Residence:
The eaves of the thatched cottage are low and small, and the stream is covered with green grass. The drunken Wuchang dialect sounds gentle and beautiful. Whose family does that old man with white hair belong to?
The eldest son is weeding in the bean field east of the stream, and the second son is busy weaving chicken coops. The most beloved one is the youngest son, who is lying in the grass at the head of the stream, peeling off the newly picked lotus pods.

Original text of the poem:
The eaves are low and the grass is green on the stream. When drunk, Wu Yin is very charming. Whose old lady is gray-haired?
The eldest son is hoeing beans to the east of the stream, while the middle son is weaving a chicken coop. What I like most is when my child dies, lying down at the head of the stream and peeling lotus pods. ——"Qingpingle·Village Residence"
This poem was written when Xin Qiji lived leisurely in Daihu. Since Xin Qiji always adhered to the political idea of ??being patriotic and resisting the Jin Dynasty, he had been ostracized and attacked by the capitulationists in power since he returned to the South at the age of 21.
(Today's Sifengzha Village, Yaoqiang Town, Licheng District, Jinan City). A poet and general of the Bold and Unconstrained School in the Southern Song Dynasty, he is known as the "Dragon of Ci". Together with Su Shi, he is called "Su Xin", and together with Li Qingzhao, he is called "Jinan Er'an".
Xin Qiji was born in the Kingdom of Jin. He resisted the Jin Dynasty and returned to the Song Dynasty as a young man. He served as the pacification envoy to Jiangxi and the pacification envoy to Fujian. He wrote "Ten Treatises on Meiqin" and "Nine Discussions", which lay out strategies for war and defense. Due to political disagreements with the ruling peace faction, he was later impeached and dismissed from office, and retired to the mountains. Before and after the Kaixi Northern Expedition, he was successively appointed as the prefect of Shaoxing, the prefect of Zhenjiang, and the Privy Council. In the third year of Kaixi (1207), Xin Qi died of illness at the age of sixty-eight.
Later, he was given the posthumous title "Zhongmin" as a young master.
