Title:相逢无难言，但道桑麻长
相逢无难言: "In finding each other, there is no difficulty in speaking."
In other words: Meeting is easy, speech flows naturally.
但道桑麻长: "All we talk about is the growth of mulberries and hemp"
Reference to farm work, simple country life.
The title could well come from a poem by 陶渊明 (Tao Yuanming): it's the
famous poem 《归园田居-其二》 (Return to Country Life, no. 2), one of the five
five poems in the series《归园田居》
