The origin of Idioms

The song of attacking soil in the pre Qin period is the ancestor of Chinese songs. "Emperor Century" records: in the age of Emperor Yao, the world was peaceful and the people had nothing to do. There are 80 or 90 old people who sing in the earth. Original text: work at sunrise, rest at sunrise, drink when digging a well, and eat when farming. What is Dili to me! Shen Deqian's annotation in the source of ancient poetry said: before Emperor Yao, it was almost remote. Although there are two songs "Huang e" and "Bai Di", which were written by Wang Jia, the story is nearly false. Therefore, it begins with the song of striking Earth. Zhuangzi let the king: work at sunrise, rest at sunset, carefree between heaven and earth and contented. Xijiangpu people live a quiet life, farming according to the season and selling patriotic food according to the policy. ——Huacheng, 1981, issue 6.
