Liu Yiqing recorded a conversation between Xie An (320-385) and Xie Xuan (343-388) in Shi Shuo Xin Yu Yu Yan: "Dr. Xie asked the philosophers:' How can children predict their future and just want to make it better?' If all the people have nothing to say, the chariot replied,' For example, Yushu in Lan Zhi wants to be born in the ears of terraced fields.' "Xie Xuan said to let Xie Jiazi grow up in the court for the well-proportioned garden, which will be immortal from generation to generation. Xie Xuan's words expressed his ambition and met Xie An's requirements. Later, the actual situation, as Xie Xuan said, Xie clan, like Yushu, was born in the imperial court, evergreen and fragrant from generation to generation. According to historical records, Xie's ancestors were an official family from the Cao Wei period of the Three Kingdoms, and became the leading aristocratic family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, with great power and admiration from the ruling and opposition parties.

According to 1957 Mr. Hao Haoheng's Genealogy Table, it is recorded that: "Xie's family went through the Jin, Song, Qi, Liang and Chen dynasties for more than 200 years, and four of them were national seals, among which three were Stuart, Taibao, Taifu and Dadu. There are 30 people, including secretariat, satrap, internal history and mutual history, including three princesses, one queen, two princesses, and no fewer than ten writers ... "It can be seen that it is indeed" the hometown of food for Zhong Ming "and" the home of poetry and calligraphy ".At that time, Xie Xuan replied to his uncle Xie An:" For example, Yushu in Lan Zhi wants it to be born in a quadrangle. " It is indeed confirmed by history. Later generations often use "Lan Jie" and "Lan Yu" as metaphors for good children. Xie Jiuju Huining, "Gardening Yushu" is a much-told story in orchid culture.

Now this word is usually said by fortune tellers when they are telling fortune, and it is said to be a good divination.
