Yang Yongge's Life Record of Idioms and Idioms from the Book of Songs

"Yang Yongge's Life Record of Idioms and Idioms from the Book of Songs" The life of retired old man Yang Yongge grew out of the "Book of Songs" and was strung together with idioms. He was squatting in the vegetable patch, picking grass, and when he saw the dew rolling over the purslane leaves, "Jianjia is green, and the white dew is frost" came out of his mouth. He turned around and saw Uncle Zhang secretly picking his cucumbers, and said with a smile, "This is called 'taking without telling,' and you have to give me two cloves of garlic as a penalty." He turned around and gave the newly picked eggplant to him, "Give me peaches, and give me Qiong Yao in return." This book records such days: when I opened the window in the morning, I heard the cry of "Guan Guan Ju Dove" turned into the call of a thrush; when bargaining for vegetables, I said "you get what you pay for" as "you get what you pay for"; even when Aunt Zhao's rabbit gnawed his cabbage, he could say "rabbits are in the wild" and added "It's really hard to prevent". There are no obscure annotations, no hard textual research, just planting "caicaifu" into water spinach in the vegetable garden, looking forward to "melon grass" as loofah hanging on the shelf, and "reviewing the past and learning the new" as saying "yesterday's rain was heavier than last year" with the old friends. When the plants and trees in the Book of Songs climb up the clothesline, and when the truths in the idioms fall into the pickle jar, you will find that the words of the ancestors are never the words in the pile of old papers, but the fireworks on the stove and the soil in the vegetable patch. It is an old man like Yang Yongge who turns his life into a "lively and fragrant" poem.
