Dynasty: Song Dynasty

Author: Hao Cheng

There were faint clouds in the sky, and the wind blew on my face. At this time, it was noon, and I walked through the flowers and along the green willows, and unconsciously came to the river.

At that time, people didn't understand my inner happiness at this moment, thinking that I was learning from young people and taking advantage of the good opportunity to steal.

At that time, people didn't understand my inner happiness at this moment, thinking that I was imitating young people and taking advantage of the good time to steal time.
