In the early morning in Shangdian town, located in Linqing city – a county-level city administered by Liaocheng city in East China's Shandong province, the wheat fields stretch endlessly like a green ocean. 

The slanting sunlight casts a golden veil over the land, giving the wheat a delicate, shimmering glow. A gentle breeze blows, making the waves of wheat undulate as if the earth itself is breathing, brimming with life and vitality.

As you approach, each stalk stands tall and strong, with emerald leaves glistening in the sunlight. Their robust stems bear the weight of heavy ears, swaying gently in the wind and producing a soft rustling sound, a prelude to a bountiful harvest. (Edited by Wang Qi and Du Xiaping)
