(19 10- 1996) is a famous modern poet in China. Formerly known as Jiang Haicheng, pen names Ega, Kea, etc. Jinhua, Zhejiang Ai Qing was born in dystocia, and the fortune teller said that his life was "his parents'", so he was sent to a poor farmer's house to raise him. At the age of five, he was taken home and began to study, but he was still given the cold shoulder. He is not allowed to call his parents, parents, only uncles and aunts. As he himself said, he grew up in an atmosphere of indifference and discrimination. 1932, the poet joined the "China Left-wing Artists Union". In July of the same year 12, Ai Qing and others 12 youths were arrested. The Kuomintang reactionaries accused these unarmed youths of "subverting the government" by "endangering the emergency criminal law of the Republic of China", and Ai Qing was sentenced to six years in prison. Dayan River-My Nanny was written on the day when the poet was in prison. Seeing the snowflakes flying all over the sky, he thought of the snow-covered nanny grave and wrote this poem praising the working people and cursing the dark world. His poems "I love this land" and "Wild Goose River-My Nanny" were selected as Chinese textbooks for middle schools by People's Education Publishing House.
