The last sentence of the four or five tones of the oriole is: The green shade will not reduce the time it takes to come.
Original poem:
The plums are yellow, the sun is clear, the creek is overflowing, and the mountains are running.
The green shade does not slow down the road ahead, adding four or five oriole calls.
Translation:
When the plums are yellow and the weather is sunny every day, I take a boat and walk along the stream until I reach the end of the stream, and then change Continue on the mountain path. The green trees on the mountain road are as dense as when we came here, and there are a few happy calls of oriole in the deep forest, which makes it more interesting than when we came here.

Poetry Appreciation
This is a quatrain that records the scenery and expresses the poet's freshness about the scenery during the journey. Feel. First period season and weather. When the plums turn yellow, it is the early summer season in the south of the Yangtze River. During this period, it is often rainy. The word "every day is sunny" here is to emphasize the special weather of this year's Huangmei season. On the other hand, it is to use the sunny weather to create a fresh and refreshing book about the scenery of the journey below.
The second sentence "The creek is overflowing but the mountain is walking", which highlights "in the middle of the road". Quzhou is located in the upper reaches of Zhejiang Province, and the territory is mountainous, so the roads are both land and water. This sentence means to paddle a small stream and go upstream. When you can't go any further, you abandon the boat and land, and continue to move forward along the mountain path. The word "que" contains a turning point, which subtly and vaguely expresses the poet's fresh joy when he turns from water to land. This sentence describes the itinerary, and the word "Mountain Journey" begins with the third and fourth sentences.
"The green shade does not slow down the time it takes to come, and it adds four or five calls of orioles." After reading this, I realized that the poet had already passed through the three-way road not long ago in the opposite direction to this time. This time we went back along the original route. The quatrains are simple and simple. The poet does not trace the scenes of "the way back". He only points them out here incidentally and contrasts them with what he saw and heard on the return trip to highlight the fresh feelings of this trip. Both conception and tailoring are important. Quite a show of ingenuity.
On the mountain road, there are green shades, which seem to be no different from what I saw when I came here not long ago. However, among the green shades, there are occasionally a few calls of orioles, but I have never heard them on the way here. of. The contrast between "undiminished" and "added" not only hints at the change of seasons during the round trip - from spring to early summer, but also subtly expresses the joy of the traveler on his way back.
Originally, seeing the lush greenery on the mountain road and hearing the chirping of the oriole can be said to be a very common thing. If you write about this alone, there will be almost no touching poetic beauty. But once the memory of "the way we came" and the contrasting reflections caused by it are woven into the association, this adds poetic interest to the originally ordinary scenery. This chronicle poem may seem ordinary, but it is intriguing to read, and that is why.
