1. During the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government was corrupt and incompetent, and it compromised on imperialist aggression. The poet Gao Ding was depressed and decided to stay with relatives in the countryside for a few days to relax. When the relatives heard about Gao Ding's arrival, they hurriedly prepared a banquet to welcome Gao Ding. But Gao Ding was not in the mood to eat or drink at this time, so he politely declined and strolled to the outskirts.
It was the second month of the lunar calendar, when everything revived, grass grew on the ground, and everything seemed full of vitality. Beside the village, apricot flowers are blooming, pink and beautiful, like a wind-colored cloud. The flowers on a peach tree not far away were in full bloom, attracting many butterflies and bees. In the sky, birds such as orioles and swallows are flying freely. The willows on the embankment are brushing the weak willow branches, as if they are intoxicated in the beautiful spring scenery, and like a beautiful girl combing her long hair. The depression in Gao Ding's heart was gradually forgotten. The days are long and it is still early when the children return from school. At this time, a gust of spring breeze blew, and from behind came waves of children's laughter and slapstick: "Come on, come and play, let's see who can put it higher!" Several children ran past Gao Ding, and they ran as they ran. Competition kite flying.
Looking at these innocent children, the unhappiness in Gao Ding's heart disappeared. He thought: "With them, why should China be inferior to others?" Unable to restrain his excitement, he became inspired by poetry and immediately recited the seven-character quatrain "Village Residence" that has been passed down through the ages:
草 The orioles are flying in the February sky, and the willows are brushing against the dike and drunk with the spring smoke.
Children come back early from school,
busy flying kites in the east wind.
2. Xu Gongdian, Suxin City
Yang Wanli
The fence is sparse and one foot deep,
The flowers on the trees have not yet fallen. Negative.
The children hurriedly chased the yellow butterfly,
flying into the cauliflower and nowhere to be found.
This is a poem describing the rural scenery in late spring. It paints a picture of children fluttering butterflies full of spring. This poem uses line drawing techniques, which is easy, natural and vivid. Yang Wanli was an upright official, but he was once hated by his traitors. After being dismissed from office, he lived in the village for a long time. He was very familiar with rural life. His descriptions are naturally touching and interesting.
