Three minutes to talk about culture
It often rains at night in Shu, and the river threshold has sunny.
Ye Runlin is dense, and the clothes are dry and the pillow is clear.
It's unbearable to be old and sick, how can it still be famous.
A shallow trickle of wine, a deep gift of this life.
From Du Fu's "Two Songs of Water Threshold Sending Hearts · Part 2".
祗: pronounced zhī, the meaning of silently bearing.
Trickle: Slow flow of fine water.
There are many rainy days in Shudi, often drizzling at night, leaning on the railing by the river, and gradually seeing the sky clear. The woods were covered with puddles of water, the leaves were covered with droplets, and as soon as the sun came out, the clothes and pillows dried;
Now that he is frail and sickly, his mentality is gradually calming down, and he no longer pursues fame and fortune, but just wants to live a safe and stable life. Drink it slowly, and it will be my best friend for the rest of my life.
In the second year of Tang Suzong, in 761 AD, Du Fu resigned from Huazhou Sigong to join the army, and came to Chengdu after several journeys.
With the help of Gao Shi and Yan Wu, Du Fu built the "Huanhua Cottage", and his life was temporarily settled.
After failing in the imperial examination, Du Fu lived in Chang'an for nearly 10 years in order to gain fame, and finally won the office, but his youngest son was starved to death, which gave him a heavy blow.
However, Du Fu's officials did not stop, and when he returned home to save his relatives, the "Anshi Rebellion" broke out, and in desperation, Du Fu had to take refuge with his family everywhere.
Later, the crown prince Li Heng ascended the throne in Lingwu, and Du Fu handed over his wife and children to a friend to take care of.
Zuo Shizhi is an official, and if he is stable, he will be reused in the future, but he participated in the rescue of the former prime minister Fang Xuan, and was disgusted by Tang Suzong and degraded to Huazhou. Tang Suzong even said: The emperor is not very provincial.
Since then, Du Fu has started a life of exile again, and after several twists and turns, he came to Chengdu, where he had a peaceful life and little comfort in his later years, so he wrote "Two Songs of Water Threshold and Heart".
In this poem, Du Fu shows an open-minded attitude towards life.
Shu day often rains at night, and the river threshold has been clear", Du Fu wrote the scene first, after the night rain, the weather turned clear in the morning, he walked to the riverside, admired the morning light, and was very leisurely.
The light rain wet the leaves, and there were many depressions in the forest, which showed that Du Fu went to walk in the forest again, and as the sun rose, his wet clothes had been dried, and the pillow mats in the house were not damp.
Du Fu is an ideal person, eager to contribute to the country and the people, but he has a bad fate, and he has always been depressed, especially when he is old, his body is also overwhelmed, so he began to enjoy a short period of peace and no longer pursue fame.
There are always things to go through in life to know what you want.
Shallow trickle of wine, deep by sending this life", the last couplet, Du Fu wrote both open-minded and helpless, open-minded because he was unofficial and light, and he could accompany his family well. Helplessly, he will have to rely on residual wine for the rest of his life in the future, and his former ideals can no longer be realized.
In fact, most people will re-establish their life goals after experiencing the grind of life, and the dream of youth is just a lovely experience, not necessarily to be realized.
At this time in life, we should properly correct our own path in order to live a more comfortable life.
