Three or two branches of peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the water of the spring river is warm. prophet.
The ground is covered with wormwood and short reed buds, which is when the puffer fish is about to come.
The two returned to Hong and wanted to break the group, but Yiyi still looked like people returning from the north.
I know from afar that there are many winds and snows in the Shuo Desert, but I am waiting for the spring in the south of the Yangtze River.
Translation
Two or three peach blossoms are blooming outside the bamboo forest, and the ducks playing in the water are the first to notice the warming of the river in early spring.
The river beach is covered with mugwort, and the reeds have sprouted short new shoots. At this time, the pufferfish is about to swim upstream from the sea to the river.
The wild geese flying north are like the people returning north, reluctant to leave and almost falling behind.
Thousands of miles away, I already know that the desert in the north is very windy and snowy, so it is better to spend half a month of spring in the south of the Yangtze River.
