"Rain in the Qingming Festival" points out the natural conditions such as time and weather where the poet lives. Tomb-Sweeping Day is one of the major festivals in the Tang Dynasty. On this day, there are various activities, such as family reunion, grave sweeping, or outing. However, on that day in Tomb-Sweeping Day, Chizhou, where Du Mu lived, was not a sunny day, but "the sky was falling like crisp" and it was drizzling.
"People on the road want to kill their souls", from objective writing to subjective description, focuses on the poet's emotional world. He was heartbroken and sad when he saw passers-by mourning their dead relatives.
Excuse me, where is the restaurant? The poet was immersed in the scenery, extremely sad, but had to trudge in the rain. The rain is wet and the spring is chilly. The poet hopes to drown his sorrows by drinking. So he asked people for directions.
"The shepherd boy refers to Xinghua Village", which points out the object of the poet's asking for directions in the previous sentence. The Shepherd's Guide to the Maze brings readers into a new realm different from the previous misery. The warm and sweet voice of the little shepherd boy, the apricot flowers in the distance, the noise of spring, and the wine flag fluttering at the head of the village. The first two sentences of the rhyme "There is another village in the dark" create a sad and sentimental artistic picture. Consistent with the poet's emotional pulse. ?
