Every time we meet, we are reunited, and the sun is shining brightly to protect the jade fence. It was only held out in the sky, and all the people in the world looked up.

Translation: When the full moon comes on the 15th, people will be reunited, and their eyes will be filled with light to protect the jade railing. The bright moon in the sky has just appeared, and the people in the world have already raised their heads to watch.

The first chapter of "A Dream of Red Mansions" opens with Jia Yucun celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival. At this time, Jia Yucun was still an inconspicuous and poor scholar. Although he is down and out, he is full of ambition. On the night of the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he was full of joy and excitement, and wrote a five-rhythm, a couplet and a five-jue poem in succession. Especially the last song, Wujue, which is written about the moon but does not use the word "month" in the whole poem. There is no sense of sadness at all, and the confidence is beyond words.

Poetry Appreciation

This poem contains seven unique features, further revealing the inner world of Jia Yucun, an ambitious politician. Jia Yucun was originally a "family of poets, writers and officials", but fell into ruin only because of the decline of his family's fortune. However, he was not willing to "live under others for a long time" and still pursued fame and fortune as his only goal. "The whole world only holds it out for the first time, and all the people in the world look up to see it." This nakedly exposed his political ambition.

He was so poor that he finally took up residence in the Calabash Temple, but he still never forgot that "the jade is in the bag for a good price, and the hairpin is in the box waiting to fly", and day and night he was looking forward to the good opportunity of "prosperity" , exuding the stench of promotion and wealth.
