The author is a guest at a friend's house. It's getting late and he wants to go home, but his master keeps asking him to stay. The author can drink well, but he can't drink much because of his old age and illness. But the author didn't want to go against his master's kindness and stayed even if he wanted to go. When the author was drunk, the host said not to drink any more, but there was nothing to worry about when he was drunk.
On the way home, the author was still drunk and dizzy, only to see that the sunset had fallen on the mountain. Seeing the people in the bamboo forest, I want to stay overnight and have a good rest. There is an old man in this family who is very happy with the arrival of the author.
The author told him that "I am not a powerful person", and the old man bowed his head and smiled and went back. The author laments that his desire to be an official has long been exhausted, but some people still want to be an official. Even the old farmers who farm look down on themselves. Who can they be friends with when they are old?
