Ji You's Lyrics. This poem describes the daily life in rural areas in the south of the Yangtze River. The poet closely follows the word "you" in his poems, but he does not specifically describe the process of visiting the village, but cuts out the experience of visiting the village to reflect endless fun.
In the first couplet, the poet swam to the farmhouse, wrote about the scenery outside the village in the couplet, and wrote about the things in the village in the neck couplet, and finally often came for a night outing. Although each has its own emphasis, it runs through the whole village, harmoniously unifying the beautiful natural scenery and simple villagers' customs in a complete picture, forming a beautiful artistic conception and a calm and meaningful style. The whole poem is ingenious in conception, simple in description and naturally interesting without scribbling.
Creation background
This poem was written in the early spring of the third year (1 167) of Song Xiaozong main road, and Lu You was at home at leisure. Before that, Lu You was a judge of Longxing House (now Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province). In the second year of Longxing (1 164), he actively supported the anti-Jin general Zhang Jun's northern expedition. After Liv's defeat, she was pushed out by the middle lords and capitulators in the imperial court.
In the second year of Trunk Road (1 166), he was dismissed from office in Longxing House on the charge of "protesting, clamoring for right and wrong, and urging Zhang Jun to fight". When Lu You returned to his hometown, his mood was quite complicated, with anguish and resentment intertwined, but he was not disheartened.
The patriotic feelings of "generosity is still strong" (Yu Wen) made him feel hope and light in rural life, and poured this feeling into his poetry creation. This poem was written in my hometown of Yin Shan (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang).
