Original: Yang Bufan wrote a small picture of flowers for Yu and his wife, with a real expression. The moonlight is beautiful at night, and the blue shadow is stuck on the wall, with no hidden intention. When Blue Star was drunk, he became very happy and said, "If you can take a picture of this gentleman, I can take a picture of these flowers." Xiao Yu said, "Can a flower shadow be like a figure?" Xinglan took ordinary paper and spread it on the wall. It was a blue shadow, painted in ink. It's not a painting to look at during the day, but it's interesting to spend time in Xiao Ye. Non-success is very precious, and each has its own topic. Yang Bufan drew a small picture of flowers for my husband and wife, which looks very similar. The moonlight is beautiful tonight. The shadow of the orchid climbs up the powder wall, and there is a quiet scenery. After getting drunk, Blue Star said happily, "KATTO can paint portraits for you, and I can paint shadows for orchids." I smiled: "Can a flower shadow be like a figure?" Cymbidium took plain paper and spread it on the wall, and painted it in thick ink in the shadow of orchid. Take it out during the day, although it is not a complete painting, but the flowers and leaves are alienated, and there is no interest in the moon. My wife Yun cherishes this painting very much, and my friends have their own poems on it.

Yes, Six Chapters of a Floating Life is an autobiographical novel written by Shen Fu, a native of Changzhou in Qing Dynasty, in the 13th year of Jiaqing (1808). Yang Yinchuan, the brother-in-law of Wang Tao in the Qing Dynasty, found the remnant draft of Six Chapters of a Floating Life in a cold stall in Suzhou, with only four volumes, and gave it to Wang Tao, who was in charge of reporting Wenzunge in Shanghai at that time, and published it as movable type 1877. The second dictionary of a floating life tells Li Bai's poem Preface to the Spring Banquet in Taoliyuan that "the husband of heaven and earth, everything goes against the course;" Time flies, and a hundred generations fly by. And floating like a dream, for the joy of geometry? " .

Wen Zunge's block-printed Six Chapters of a Floating Life is the earliest existing block-printed book in China, with Yang's life introduction and Wang Tao's inscription and postscript. Yang Yinchuan said in the preface that "six records are short of two". Wang Tao once said that he read this book when he was young (before 1847), but unfortunately he didn't copy it. When he was in exile in Hong Kong, he often missed it. Wang Tao 1877' s postscript for Zunwenge Edition did not say that he had read the whole book when he was young.

From 65438 to 0936, Lin Yutang translated four chapters of Six Chapters of a Floating Life into English and serialized them in Tianxia Monthly. Later, he published a bilingual booklet with a long preface. Lin Yutang wrote in the preface that "Yun (Chen Yun) is the most lovely woman in China literature." I also guess that "there must be a complete book in Suzhou's family collection or second-hand bookstore."

Soon after, a complete manuscript appeared in a cold stall in Suzhou, with five volumes and six volumes, which was actually forged for future generations.
