Maxim on Family Governance
[Late Ming and early Qing] Zhu Bailu
A porridge a rice, when think hard-won;
Half thread, half thread, constant thoughts and resources are difficult。
Thrift and cherish food
It is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation
You know a seed
How did it turn into a bowl of rice
Today is World Food Day
Let's walk in together
The growth process of rice --
春耕
A year's plan begins with spring
Spring ploughing is the busiest season
The farmer soaked the seeds in water to bud them up
When the buds sprout
Sow the seeds in the ground to start the seedlings
With the nourishment of spring rain
The seedlings emerged from the soil
Grow into a shade of velvet
Wait for the seedlings to grow strong
They began to transplant rice seedlings
夏耘
Three points, seven points
When the seedlings go to the ground
Months of intensive care will begin
Or the sun was blazing, or the clouds were rolling
Raking, fertilizing and controlling insects
Field management
None less
秋收
Golden autumn season
After the baptism of time, precipitation
The rice turns from green to golden
Yellow and bright
Quietly to the earth changed into autumn clothes
Heavy ears of rice
He bent the straw
The breeze blows
Rice waves rolling, rice fragrance faint
Farmers are also getting busy
Harvest rice with blue sky and white clouds overhead
Threshed and dried
The harvest was full of grain
Enjoy the joy of harvest
冬藏
The rice is husked
The coarse appearance -- the chaff -- was removed
Reveal the crystal clear white
With fireworks and steam
After repeated steaming
Into sweet white rice
Come to the table
Rich in human fireworks
Who knows the dishes, every grain are hard
It's not just old poetry
It is also the "traceability" realism of food
Virtue begins with the heart, saving practice in action
Everyone should start from themselves
Don't waste a grain of food
Live up to every hard work
