"Embroidered Mandarin Duck"
You can see that there is another stitch of embroidery and someone is hurting you
You can see that there is someone waiting for you in the summer rain and autumn wind
The green bamboo weeps, the ink marks the brocade, calligraphy and painting fail
Love needles and threads can embroider endless mandarin duck pillows
