Interpretation: Yansou suddenly opened his eyes to the distant Qing Dynasty, and became more and more interested in the hometown. From time to time, he humiliated the teachings of Fu Cheng. At the beginning of the opening of the mansion, he was comforted by all the blessings. Yan Shen looked forward to the future, only hoped to regulate his sleep and Xing, and relied on him as a deputy. I respectfully request that Yansou visit the magistrate again to appease Zuo Cheng on the 23rd
