Poetry about poverty
Life can't stand being old and poor.

The fifth time of Cao Qingxue Qin's Dream of Red Mansions. The general idea of this sentence is: don't be poor all your life. When people are old and exhausted, they can't do anything, and their ability to resist external hardships is greatly weakened. If they suffer from poverty again at this time, they will suffer mentally and physically. This sentence can be used to illustrate that it is unfortunate to be poor in old age; It can also be used to explain that when you are young, you can't do nothing and waste pleasure, so you will be poor when you are old.

A Dream of Red Mansions by Cao Xueqin, a Manchu novelist in Qing Dynasty

Miao and Shu taxes can't be eaten, and the official warehouse is turned into soil. Famous sayings about poverty

Tang Zhangji's wild old songs. Lose: pay, pay. Due to natural disasters, crops in the field are sparse and taxes are extremely heavy. The limited grain harvested in autumn has to be used to pay the rent and sent to the official warehouse, leaving it to rot and turn into dust, while I have no food and clothing. This poem expresses heavy taxes and poor people in plain language and strong contrast. The contrast between "Miao Shu" and "exorbitant taxes and levies", and the contrast between "not enough to eat" and "turning war into friendship" all strengthen the expression effect and reveal the hardships of exorbitant taxes and levies and the living conditions of working people more and more profoundly. It can be used to show the extremely poor living conditions of farmers in the old society.

Wild Old Songs of Tang Dynasty Poet Zhang Ji

Finally, Xiaomi went to someone else, and my wife didn't know where to throw it.

Don Zhang Bi's peasant father. I worked hard all the year round, and as a result, all the food collected in the field was used to pay the rent, which made it impossible for my family to maintain the minimum living, even for myself, and my wife and children didn't know where to throw it. It can be used to reflect the cruel exploitation and extreme poverty of the working people in the old society.

The Father of the Farmer by Zhang Bi, a poet in Tang Dynasty.

You eat your food with wild vegetables, but your food is sweet. You cook with dead branches with leaves.

Tang Yuanzhen's "Mourning". Forrest Gump: It tastes sweet. Jojo: Bean leaves. Yang: Shit. The general idea of these two sentences is to pick some wild vegetables such as bean leaves to satisfy the hunger, but it tastes sweet, and add some fallen leaves as firewood, all by that ancient locust tree. This is Yuan Zhen's memory of living a poor life with his dead wife in those years. Between the lines, I deeply admire my dead wife's contentment in poverty. The situation reflected in these two poems is similar to that in Du Xunhe's Widow in the Mountain, "When picking wild vegetables and cooking roots, firewood burns leaves". The latter is a direct account of the miserable life of the working people, while the former also reflects a poor and happy attitude towards life. When reading works or reflecting life, we should pay attention to these similarities and differences.

A Farewell to Sorrow by Yuan Zhen, a poet in Tang Dynasty

This cloth has been as cold as iron for many years, and Joule has been lying down and cracking.

Tang Du Fu's Autumn Wind Breaking the Cottage. He: (qρn Qin): quilt. Evil (wwu) lies: I hate sleeping and don't want to sleep. A rag that has been covered for years is as cold as iron. Unreasonable jiaoer doesn't want to lie in the cold and hard quilt, kicking around at random and kicking in the quilt. By describing the vivid details of Joule's evil lies, this poem not only vividly depicts an ignorant child's childish action of refusing to get into the cold bed, but also shows us that the poet's life has fallen into a very poor situation.

I have no place to eat, and it is difficult to break the inkstone. Famous sayings of poverty

Shi's "The Second Rhyme: It has rained for a long time in Kong Yiji". Eating broken inkstones: eating by breaking inkstones means living by writing. Second: Recently. I have no land or money in my life. I only live on a broken inkstone, but recently even the broken inkstone has dried up and I can't grind ink. The author has never set foot in industry in his life, and only makes a living by writing poems and articles. Later, he was demoted again and again, and the situation was even more difficult. He is so depressed that he can't even write poems and articles. This is what the author wants to talk about, but it is expressed in symbolic language, such as "the inkstone has been eaten bad" and "the inkstone has been worn bad", which gives abstract ideas a vivid and tangible image. This writing method can give us useful enlightenment. Can be used to describe the plight of frustrated intellectuals.

Su Shi, a writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, "The Second Rhyme of Kong Yiji's Long Drought and Heavy Rain"

A gentleman in the world is willing to be tired of clothes and coarse clothes, and willing to work hard, so he can lose nothing.

Yuan's Chronicle of Yan Xizhai, suicide note. Gentleman's way: a man of integrity. Forrest Gump: willingly. I see. Error: a shortcoming, a mistake. A gentleman's attitude towards life is that he is willing to wear inferior clothes, eat humble meals and work hard, so that he will not make mistakes. Requiring these words as a moral standard of a gentleman is of positive significance from the point of view of persuading people to be thrifty and keep house and restrain material desires, but the idea of being content with poverty and not seeking to improve material living standards is not enough.

Yan Yuan, a thinker and educator in the early Qing Dynasty, wrote Chronology of Mr. Yan Li's suicide note.
