Xiangzishurao village

Trees surround the village and water fills the pond. Wandering in the east wind, high-spirited. The small garden is full of spring. There are peach blossom red, plum blossom white and cauliflower yellow.

Far away from the fence, there is a dark hall. Next to Qingqing and Liushui Bridge. Occasionally take the opportunity to flatten Donggang. Yinger is singing, Yaner is dancing and butterflies are busy.

At the beginning, the word "around the tree" is written about brilliant spring scenery. The poet started from the whole village. Around the village, surrounded by layers of green trees; In the pond in the village, the water has risen to the height of the pond bank, which is obviously a sign that spring comes to the countryside. Then, the phrase "leaning against the east wind" describes the poet walking around the village with great interest in the gentle spring breeze and enjoying the scenery in spring, which shows his love for rural scenery. In the phrase "small garden", the writer was attracted by a small garden full of spring while roaming. It seems that the garden is only a little big, but it seems to have all the spring scenery. So, what are the spring scenery? There are three sentences about "Peach Blossom Red", which describe red peach blossom, Bai Meihua and cauliflower. It is these gorgeous colors and rich fragrance that make up the attractive picture of the small garden in spring.

In the second half of the poem (Xiaque), the poet walked into the small garden and turned to the distant wall, where a thatched chapel was faintly visible. Not far from the small bridge outside the wall, there is a blue wine flag floating. Obviously, there is a small hotel nearby. These words are quite similar to the artistic conception in Xin Qiji's poem Partridge Sky: "The mountain is far and near, the road is oblique, and the bluestone plate sells wine and has a home." In the sentence of "accidental", the lyricist suddenly got drunk, wanted to borrow wine to get rid of spring, and then walked over the hill in the east on a whim. The phrase "birds singing" is a pause, which inherits two meanings, that is, over the hill, "another village is blooming", which is another scene: birds are singing and dancing, and butterflies are busy collecting honey. They can best represent spring, which is a different kind of spring compared with small gardens.
