Features: Seeing two Miao women with children at the foot of the North Gate City Wall, wearing light blue embroidered handkerchiefs adorned with silver ornaments, they appeared dignified, composed, and extremely beautiful. It reminded me of how Mr. Shen often described beautiful women as Guanyin in his novels. Their demeanor was truly worthy of the comparison to the noble countenance of a celestial being. The poetry is excellent, preserving the scenery of millennia as specimens. Occasionally, when walking to one of those places, if it happens to be the right season, the withered imagery comes to life, nourished, allowing you to understand what true willow catkins and pear blossoms are, what true subtle fragrance and sparse shadows are, what true living truly is.
