It's a Chinese idiom, Pinyin is l ì f ǔ D à ichu ī, which means there is a sound in the scraping pot, waiting for the fire to cook; it describes a hard life. From preface to LV Jichen's poems.
The idiom comes from Qian Qianyi's preface to LV Jichen's poems in Qing Dynasty: when the country is broken and the family is dead, and the years are declining, he raises a fire and waits for a meal in a pot. Ji Chenyi is very peaceful and says, "I should be like this."
