It is moistened by the rich soil and descended by the nectar. The month is only the beginning of the autumn, and the agricultural work is less rested; the couple travels together. , is picking and asking."
In the early autumn, when farming was a little idle, I formed a group with my friends to go into the mountains and saw that the mountains and fields were full of tea, so they took advantage of the excitement.
