"There are many plums on the roadside, which means that the plums on the roadside are easy to pick. If the plums taste sweet, then all the plums on the tree must be picked. If the plums on the roadside are prosperous, it means that plums are bitter and people are unwilling to pick them. From Shi Shuo Xin Yu Ya Liang.

When people asked him, they replied, "Trees are on the side of the road, but there are many seeds, which will be bitter for plums." Take it, believe it.

Translation:

When Wang Rong was seven years old, he used to play with children. I saw a plum tree on the roadside bearing many plums, and all its branches were crushed. All the children rushed to pick plums, except Wang Rong. Someone asked him why he didn't pick plums. Wang Rong replied, "This tree grows on the roadside, and there are so many plums. It must be bitter plums." Pick it up and taste it. It's true.
