Qingming changed into a five-character poem.

Ji Xiaolan, a great scholar in the Qing Dynasty, once deleted the first two words of each sentence in Tomb-Sweeping Day and condensed them into five verses: "When it rains, pedestrians want to die, and where there is a restaurant, it points to Xinghua Village." Later, someone ingeniously deleted a word from every sentence of the poem and became a six-character poem: "It rained a lot during the Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road lost their souls. Excuse me, where is the restaurant? The shepherd boy pointed to Xingzi Village. " It's not over yet. Some people took pleasure in it and changed it into a three-character poem: "Tomb-Sweeping Day, it's raining, and people on the road want to die. Ask the restaurant, where is it, and the shepherd boy refers to Xinghua Village. "
