Shen Zhiheng was tired of the disputes in the capital and escaped into the mountains alone due to injuries.
Han Qiu fell ill by a stream and was rescued by Lu Yan, a herb collector who lived alone, back to the wooden house in the middle of the mountain.
Lu Yan was a man of few words. He went to the mountains every day to collect herbs to treat his physical weakness.
Chopping firewood and reclaiming wasteland took over the menial work; Shen Zhiheng wrote to help.
Organize the classics of Baicao and help him calculate the accounts of selling medicines in the market.
In spring, young buds are picked to make tea, in summer, herbs are dried in the courtyard, in autumn, miscellaneous grains are harvested and stored in warehouses, and in winter nights, they sit around the stove and copy books. A thatched hut, half an acre of medicine garden, and fireworks spread out slowly throughout the seasons.
In the past, frustrated civil servants put aside their worldly fame, and medicinal farmers who guarded the barren mountains no longer lived alone. The two took care of each other, and developed a long-lasting affection among the mountains, wild vegetation, and trees. There was no strife in the court, no disputes among neighbors, and they only stayed together peacefully with the fragrance of medicine year after year.
Purpose: Describe the gentle daily life of two-way healing in the mountains and fields, interpret the long-lasting sincere love in the plain fireworks, stay away from worldly disputes, and convey a healing and peaceful sense of life.
