Zu Hai of the Song family in Langya was introduced by the public.

Song Haishou, the ancestor of the Song family in Langya, was born in Yequewo, Changqing County, Jinan, Shandong Province (now Qihe County, Yucheng City, Dezhou City). In March of the first year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1368), he joined the army and came to the southwest township of Yizhou Prefecture. When he first arrived in Xiangcheng, he lived in the north of the city. But Gong also came with a good friend named Ma. See Gong's residence is very good, I hope Gong can give it to him. Gong knew his idea and generously gave him his home. Gong immediately moved to the foot of Shilong Mountain, three miles northwest of the town. He used thatch and reeds as the courtyard wall, chrysanthemum as the shelter from the wind and rain, branches as the bed for sleeping at night, cotton grass and wild wormwood as mats, coarse cloth woven from coarse kudzu vine hemp rope to sew clothes and quilts, and coarse rice and ordinary vegetables as the staple food.

In the eyes of others, this is indeed a lonely life, but in the eyes of the public, this is the bliss of looking up at the sky and overlooking the wilderness.

Later, Haishougong became a family, and the couple became more respectful. Between father and son, it is also the father who reclaims wasteland, and the son learns to sow and reap. It is precisely because of heaven that the public can enjoy the benefits of land and the joy of plowing and gathering acres.

Due to the rich species around the public house, Polygonatum sibiricum, Atractylodes macrocephala, Lycium barbarum, yam and so on are everywhere on the mountain and foot. The citizens will dig it back in the morning or afternoon, which can be used as medicine and food for emergency use. In the leisure time of spring and autumn, whenever the weather is fine, citizens will climb to the top of the mountain or go to the stream of the mountain stream to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature and cultivate their own sentiments. He occasionally chats with people, but he is indifferent to fame and fortune, doing nothing, and the content of the chat is even more extraordinary, so he is respected as a "good man" by his neighbors and friends. What Hai Shougong did, only those who know books and manners can reach his ideological realm.

Conclusion: Before Changqing County, the family history of the Song family here could not be verified, except that Haishou Palace came to Linyi on foot from Changqing, lived at the foot of Shilong Mountain, with cliffs as houses, hedges of Vitex negundo and bamboo branches as walls, no wooden doors and no pruning of thorns. Diligent in farming, never tired, stay in the world, cultivate one's morality, and have no delusions; Do not seek fame, do not enter the city, do not compete with the world, free and easy. Just as Xunzi, a great thinker in ancient times, said, "If you have ambition, you will be arrogant and extravagant, and if you have morality, you will despise princes."

It can be seen that people who are willing to die in Shan Ye, such as Haishougong, who are free from the hustle and bustle of the city, why should they be "arrogant and extravagant" and "light princes"!

The purpose of recording these things of Gong is to inspire the world, let future generations know the etiquette and fashion of concession, and take Gong as their example. This is also the significance of our future generations to know the public. However, how many people can really abide by it? Still hope that * * * can make unremitting progress.
