"He Tao Repays Liu Chaisang"
Era: Song Dynasty Author: Su Shi
Sweet potatoes and purple buds are placed far away around the wall. ?
Let the orchids bloom in the spring, and don’t compete with the frost and chrysanthemums in the autumn. ?
In the cold winter, there is plenty of food, and uprightness is better than farming. ?
Qi Shang Bai Yu Yan, can you go through this again? ?
After a full meal, one forgets the old mountains and misses the horse and travels less.
