She has a brother named Xie Xuan, who is also a man with great military talent. The two brothers and sisters were brilliant since childhood and won the love of their uncle Xie An. A knowledgeable man and a military genius, Xie Jia's fame depends not only on wealth and prestige, but also on the strength of Xie Jia.

It can be said that Xie Jia has produced generations of talents. As we all know, Xie Lingyun is the originator of the school of landscape poetry. He was about the same age as Tao Yuanming, and he was the first person to create landscape poems. The artistic conception of his poems is fresh and gorgeous, which shows the natural landscape image in his poems. In order to get rid of political oppression, he traveled all over the mountains and rivers and poured all his troubles into them. Therefore, his poems often give people beautiful enjoyment. Even later poems by Li Bai, Du Fu and others often borrowed Xie Lingyun's creation, which shows how influential Xie Lingyun's poems are.

It is said that all the children in Xie Daowen died in the rebellion in Sun En, but the children in Xie Xuan did not suffer so much. Xie Huan, the son of Xie Xuan, is the father of Xie Lingyun, the founder of the famous landscape poetry school. Xie Jia and Wang Xizhi are close relatives. Xie Daowen not only married Wang Xizhi's son, but also Xie Huan's wife was Wang Xizhi's granddaughter. So according to this relationship, Xie Daowen is Xie Lingyun's aunt.

If Xie Daowen's poems are not catkins because of the wind, I think everyone knows the source of this sentence. This was said by Xie Daowen, a poetess in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. One winter, it was snowing heavily outside, and Xie An invited his family to sit in the house and talk about poetry. The snow outside just caught Xie An's attention. He improvised: it's snowing harder and harder outside. What do you think of the snow? Hu Er, the son of Brother Xie An, said: It can be compared to sprinkling salt in the air. Xie Daowen went on to say: It is best to compare the spinning snow to catkins blown by the wind! Xie An was very happy after hearing this. Since then, this sentence has also become a good sentence appreciated by future generations.

Besides this famous poem, other poems written by Xie Daowen are also praised by later generations. Xie Daowen's "Ode to Mount Tai" is very famous, with a grand beginning. Mount Tai, the head of the Five Mountains, stands tall in the east of China. It is beautiful and towering, towering into the sky. Xie Daowen described the grandeur of Mount Tai very vividly. Later, I also wrote that the grandeur of Mount Tai was all created by nature, and the wonderful scenery on my deathbed was breathtaking. Xie Daowen praised Mount Tai for standing proudly among nature with loneliness and silence. This sentence expresses Xie Daowen's love for Mount Tai and his infinite love for nature.

While praising the charm of Mount Tai, the author also aroused his own sense of destiny. Her husband and children were killed in Sun En's rebellion, leaving her alone in time, but the author did not integrate her sadness into the poem, sighing the beauty of nature and seeing the continuation of life. Nature is so beautiful, why not make good use of your remaining time and why pity others?
