The Background of Du Mu's Writing Qingming

This day is Tomb-Sweeping Day. The poet Xiao Du happened to get caught in the rain during his trip. Qingming, although it is a season of blooming green flowers and bright spring, is also a period when the climate is prone to change, and sometimes even "windy and rainy". However, the rain in Mao Mao on this day is the kind of rain that "the light rain in the sky is as clear as thunder", which is also the characteristic of spring rain.

Qingming Festival

A drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day; The mourner's heart is going to break on his way.

Ask local people where to buy wine? The shepherd boy just laughed and didn't answer Xingshan Village.

Vernacular translation

During the Qingming Festival in the south of the Yangtze River, the drizzle drifted one after another, and all the passengers on the road were down and out.

Where can local people buy wine to drown their sorrows? The shepherd boy just smiled and pointed to Xinghuashan Village.
