Fan Chengda's poems describing the hardships of farmers' lives

The four seasons are idyllic:

The charter boat is fully loaded and ready to sail, and the particles are as white as pearls.

At the cost of two losses and one welcome, you can still win the chaff and enrich yourself.

Translation:

Charter a boat full of rice and wait for the government to open a warehouse to collect rent. The particles are as round as pearls and as white as frost and snow. Farmers have to bear the pain of giving two cups of grain and one cup a year, so they can only give the rest of the bran to their children.

Fan Chengda has been an official in various places for many years and knows the local customs like the back of his hand. The life reflected in his poems is relatively broad. For example, he wrote poems about people's sufferings, inherited the tradition of Du Fu's harmony with Yuan, Bai, Zhang and Wang in the Tang Dynasty, and his writing style was novel, vivid and unique, such as "My eldest daughter broke up with me through the mouth of an old farmer last year".

This year, the second daughter has been engaged in the media, and driving again will change her mind. There is a third girl in the room, and she is not afraid to hold down the rent for next year! "The tone is cold, but the intensity of criticizing reality is no less than the loud voice in Bai Juyi's poems.
