Want to Return to the Countryside and Transform My Hometown into a Garden
When I get old, I'll return to my hometown with my wife.
Tidy up the courtyard of my hometown.
Build a courtyard full of flowers.
Grow flowers in front of the courtyard and plants in the backyard; build a fence.

Each brick and stone, each flower and grass in the courtyard.
From nothing to something, from something to perfect, all poured out my heart and soul.
Every brick and wood was carefully selected.
Each flower and plant was meticulously nurtured.

I watched the land change little by little.
Like expecting my children to grow up day by day.
Time is a hand with magic.
It transformed the barren courtyard into a vibrant garden.
This is a very rewarding process.

Green in the spring, vibrant flowers releasing fragrance.
The trees' branches seem to turn green overnight.
Everything in the courtyard came to life again.
The wisteria flowers are romantic, towering over the wall.
People passing by outside the wall can't help but peek in.
Take out your phone to take pictures and record this beautiful moment.
You sit in a bamboo chair, lazily basking in the sun.

I brew a pot of flower tea and share it with you.
The warm spring breeze brings fragrance and bird songs.
Every molecule in the air wanders in this relaxed atmosphere.
The red spring flowers have withered, summer is coming.

There's still a small pool missing in the courtyard.
Please invite a few master craftsmen to dig a channel and divert water.
Lay pebbles of various sizes under the water.
The filtered water is as clear as mountain spring water.
It added a touch of vitality to the courtyard.
A gust of wind creates ripples in the pool.

The fish in the pool swim happily.
People admire their freedom.
Reflecting blue sky and white clouds in the tranquil waters.
The scenery is as beautiful as a natural oil painting.
The pool became the favorite place for the whole family.
Every afternoon, wake up and take a stroll along the pool.
It's like the heat can dissipate.
Even two cute cats like to follow behind, swaying.
The grass and trees by the pool are thriving, and there must be many mosquitoes.

Why not plant some night-blooming jasmine?
It has a good mosquito repellent effect.
There are countless summer and spring stories written in the courtyard,
There is endless autumn and winter color,Every day is worth looking forward to,One day, we will walk slowly, with white hair,We must hold hands and walk through every corner of the courtyard,To see those flowers, trees, and ancient bricks.

Behind them are stories of life
