7. Read Shan Hai Jing (Part 1)

The grass and trees of Mengxia are long, and trees around house are sparse.

All birds are grateful for support, and I also love my hut.

I plowed and planted, and still read books from time to time.

The poor alleys are divided by deep potholes, and they are right back to old man's car.

I enjoy drinking spring wine and picking vegetables from my garden.

A light rain is coming from east, and with it a good wind.

Reviewing biography of King Zhou and looking at mountains and seas.

Looking at universe, how can you not be happy again.

After Tao Yuanming lived in seclusion, he entertained himself with Qin and books when he wasn't farming. During his seclusion, Tao Yuanming read myths and stories such as "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "Biography of Mu Tianzi", so he wrote 13 poems, first of which is a general summary. Much of content of poem is about my life as a farmer and reader after a life of seclusion, which is beautiful in everyday life. In end, I gave my own opinion: "If you look down on universe, what will you do if you are not happy?" Life is short but I can travel world and instantly look at universe, what a joy it is. In terms of writing, this poem is purely based on nature, with a lot of accumulation, a deep heart, and a superficial appearance that is perfect.

He knows he will never return, and he has a name for generations to come.

When you get into car, you will arrive at Qin Court.

Blast through a thousand cities.

The picture is bad, and hero is in a daze.

It is a pity that swordsmanship is poor, so miraculous feats cannot be achieved.

Although person is gone, love remains for thousands of years.

"Ode to Jingke" is a famous epic poem by Tao Yuanming. The whole story describes story of King Qin's assassination of Jing Ke, poem exaggerates scene of that time, creating a tense and uplifting atmosphere that fills people with righteous indignation and enthusiasm. In end, "I cherish it and admire it again, and knot is strong so that whole capital can be lifted." .

9. Migration (Part 1)

I used to want to live in Nancun, but not for divination of his house.

There are a lot of simple-hearted people in sock, who count morning and evening with pleasure.

I have been pregnant with this for a long time, and today I will serve here.

Why does poor man's hut have to be so wide? Take enough to cover rugs.

Local music plays from time to time, and protests are a thing of past.

10, Return to garden and life in field (Part 3)

At foot of Nanshan Mountain, grass is full of bean sprouts, but there are few bean sprouts.

The road is narrow, and grass and trees are long, and evening dew touches my clothes.

It's not a pity that clothes are dirty, but wishes are not violated.

This poem mainly writes about work scene after I lived in seclusion. I see an interest in ordinary, showing us a picture of returning to agriculture on a moonlit night, full of my own happiness and pride in being a hermit. The simple language "plant beans at foot of South Mountain" and beautiful phrase "bring back moon and lotus"; whole poem is soft and perfect under mutual complementation of simple and beautiful, real and virtual scenes.
