Shi read Shilin and returned to Baitian, so he got a clearing in the northeast corner of the city and ruled as a garden.

It is the spring water that runs excitedly, and the pond and swamp are pure. More than ten acres of lotus roots were planted in the water, the hibiscus bamboo shoots dried up, and Luo Sheng was in the water. Turning soil into mountains, there are as many as 200 Yu Ben and countless peaches and plums on the mountains. There are halls near the water that say bamboo is deep and clean, pavilions that wash ears in Shui Xin, pavilions that cover headlands with water, bridges that cut off water and say Tianjin pond, and there are not many houses. All the habits of carving algae are gone. All this is naive and simple, and its beauty is clumsy.
