1 The rice beam under the Ehu Mountain is fertile, and the finless porpoise is half covered. Social Day by Wang Jia in Tang Dynasty

Goose and lake, crops grow well, every household is full of pigs and chickens.

It's getting late, the shadow of mulberry trees is getting longer and longer, the spring feast is gradually dispersed, and the drunkard goes home happily with the help of his family.

1 On the Ehu Mountain, the rice is plump and the finless porpoise is full of chickens. Appreciating the so-called "social day" is the day when ancient people sacrificed to the land god. There are two festivals in folk customs, Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. From the content point of view, it is not difficult to find that Wang Jia's "Social Day" is obviously about the Spring Society.

The poem begins with two sentences: "The rice is fertile and the finless porpoise is semi-hidden." Judging from the scenery of the village, "rice, sorghum and fertilizer" describe the growth of crops, and the word "fertilizer" vividly shows the scene of bumper harvest on paper, and the joy of farmers is nurtured. Isn't the scenery a spiritual scene? The poet controls the whole poem with the word "fat", and his brush strokes gradually move from the beautiful scenery outside the village to the village. "Dolphin in the cage, chicken in the nest" is more popular. The poet is handy, using this most common life scene in rural life to render the festive atmosphere with the prosperity of six animals. Here, we can not only enjoy the natural landscape of Shan Ye, but also smell the earth and hear the long-lost cock crow and dog bark. See the pig and see the chicken, but no one. The peasant family is "half hidden and half present", and "half hidden and half present" shows the simplicity of folk customs, which is somewhat peaceful and peaceful. However, where did people go? In this way, it constitutes a kind of suspense, subtly transferring poetry to backward association.

"Sang Zheying scattered the Spring Society, and everyone was intoxicating." The poet did not focus his pen and ink on the lively scene of the performance of "Social Day", but focused his "focus" on the time of "social dispersion". The oblique and long shadows of mulberries and Zheshu are not only the afterglow of sunset, but also the taste of farmers' mood. "Sanger" also symbolizes the fiery sericulture in Shan Ye, showing the artistic originality of the poet's language. "Every family helps others get drunk", and the peak of sentence-making is highlighted, which is even more ingenious. It can be described as the essence of the whole poem. It is precisely because of this "drunkenness" that the above-mentioned "fat" has been implemented. Being drunk because of being fat reflects being fat because of being drunk. It is the crops that are "fat" and the hearts of farmers that are "drunk". At the same time, "Drunk" is also linked to the topic of "social day", which sets off the grand occasion of social day.

The poet did not write a word about the social day, but sketched it through some pictures with strong rural life breath, such as Rice Fertilizer, The Return of Intoxicated People, Dolphin Fence and Habitat, which set off the joy of mountain village festivals and reflected the rich life brought by farmers' hard work.

The whole poem is simple and true, without any traces of deliberate carving, just like a simple and interesting rural genre painting. It is different from the almost fantasy peach garden, but a more realistic pastoral life. It can be said that it is a unique work in the poetry circle of the late Tang Dynasty.
