What does Xin Qiji's ancient poem Qingpingle Village mean?

The eaves of the thatched cottage are low and small, and the stream is covered with green grass. The slightly drunk Wu dialect sounds gentle and beautiful. Whose are those white-haired in-laws? The eldest son is weeding in the bean field on the east side of the stream, and the second son is knitting a chicken coop at home. My favorite naughty little son is lying on the grass at the head of the stream, peeling off the lotus just picked.

The whole poem is as follows:

Qingpingle country house

The thatched roof of the hut is low and small, and the stream is covered with green grass. Drunk Wu local drunk, gentle voice, white-haired old man who is it?

The eldest son is weeding in the bean field on the east side of the stream, and the second son is busy knitting chicken cages. My favorite is my youngest son, who is lying in the grass, peeling the lotus just picked.

Creative background:

This word was written by Xin Qiji in his spare time with the lake. Because Xin Qiji has always insisted on his political opinion of resisting gold, he has been rejected and suppressed by the capitulators in power. He hasn't been appointed for a long time since he was 43. Therefore, he paid more attention to rural life in seclusion and wrote a lot of leisure words and pastoral words. This song "Qingpingle Village Residence" is one of them.

Appreciate:

In this poem, the author reflects his subjective feelings through the description of rural scenery, not just a purely objective description.

The first two sentences, write this family of five, there is a small thatched cottage, and there is a clear stream next to the house. The stream is covered with green grass. Here, the author only uses two faint strokes to outline the fresh and beautiful environment composed of huts, streams and grasslands. It is not difficult to see that these two sentences in the first word also have a little understanding of the mission of the environment and places.

Three or four sentences, describing a pair of white-haired Weng Tuo, sitting together affectionately, drinking and chatting, carefree. Although these words are very plain, they vividly reproduce a pair of white-haired Weng Tuo's "charming" and intimate happy life while drinking, the kind of harmonious, warm and comfortable old couple.

This is a miracle among miracles. Of course, this is not only limited to the life of this couple, but also summarizes the common life fun of rural elderly couples, which has certain typical significance. "Wuyin" refers to the dialect of Wu dialect. When the author wrote this word, it was in Shangrao, Jiangxi, belonging to the State of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period. "Er" is synonymous with old women.

In the next movie, the eldest son bears the burden of weeding in the bean field in Dong Xi. The second son was still young and could only do some auxiliary labor, so he woven a chicken coop at home. The third son doesn't know the way of the world, only knows to be naughty at will, watching him lie on the stream and peel lotus flowers to eat. This shows that the vast majority of rural people are not idle people waiting for food and getting something for nothing. Even immature children have to do something within their power, so the efforts and diligence of adults can be imagined. The word "lie" is really the most wonderful one. It makes children lie on the stream and peel lotus leaves, which is naive, lively and naughty, and tells the story thoroughly, thus making the characters lifelike and the artistic conception intriguing. Explain that only the elderly and the youngest children who have no labor can enjoy themselves. The author uses the method of contrast between writing and writing, which reflects the quiet and leisurely side of rural life, but leaves great imagination space for readers. This is exactly the same as the ending of the author's poem "Partridge Sky", which says that "peaches and plums are full of worries, and spring is at the head of the stream". From the artistic effect, it also has the same effect.

In the description of scenery, eaves, streams and grasslands are all common things in rural areas, but the author combines them in one painting, which is particularly fresh and beautiful. In terms of writing people, Weng Tuo drinks and chats, the elderly mow the grass, the middle weaves the chicken coop, and the young lies and peels the lotus. Through such a simple plot arrangement, it truly reflects a vibrant, peaceful, quiet, simple and comfortable rural life, giving people a poetic, fresh and pleasant feeling. This concept is ingenious, novel, harmonious and vivid, leaving an unforgettable impression.

From the author's description of the fresh, beautiful, simple and elegant environment in the countryside, and the description of Weng Tuo and his three sons, we can see that the poet loves the peaceful and quiet life in the countryside.

This word was written when the author was rejected and hit by the pacifists in his later years and his ambition was hard to pay. This word describes a peaceful, quiet, simple and comfortable life in rural areas, and cannot be said to be the author's whitewash of reality. Judging from the fact that the author has been paying attention to the restoration of the Song Dynasty, he yearns for such an idyllic life, which will further stimulate his patriotic enthusiasm for fighting against nomadic people, recovering the Central Plains and reunifying the motherland. As far as the situation at that time was concerned, this peaceful and quiet life also existed in villages far away from the anti-gold front. This work is not the product of the author's subjective imagination, but a reflection of real life.
