There is a reason why the beautiful woman next door covers her face with sleeves during the day, and she is more melancholy in spring and too lazy to dress up.
She deeply lamented that it is easy for a woman like her to get priceless treasures in the world, but it is so difficult to get a true soul mate.
For this reason, she secretly cries on the pillow every night and feels sad, so after passing through the flowers, she can't help but have the idea of heartbroken. However, since we have such a gift, even a genius like Song Like Yu Can can get it as long as we have the courage and take the initiative to fight for it. Why should we resent a talented person because he is always half-hearted?
It is easy to find priceless treasures, but it is rare to have a lover.
Ancient women had no status and were often left out by men at will, so ancient women often had ruthless dissatisfaction and lament for men. Men can have wives and concubines, but women can only be faithful to each other and can't fall in love freely. The decadent system has caused many men to love the new and hate the old, and their feelings are not single-minded. Therefore, it is more difficult for a woman to find a loving and righteous husband than to find a priceless treasure.
Yu, female, a poet in the late Tang Dynasty, was born in Chang 'an (now Xi, Shaanxi). The first name of the fish is You Wei, the word cymbidium. Xian Tong (year number, 860-874) is a concubine, and Li's wife does not allow her to become a monk in yiguang, Chang 'an County. Later, she was executed and charged with killing a maid. He is talented and fond of reading, especially poetry. Together with Ye Li, Xue Tao and Liu Caichun, they are called the four great female poets in the Tang Dynasty.
Yu's father is a down and out scholar. After he died of illness, his mother and daughter had no place to live, so they had to help some brothels wash clothes to make a living. Wen is ugly, but he is very romantic. He is a famous prodigal son and likes to hang out in brothels. He just happened to meet Yu. That year, I was about 1 1 years old. Wen was already in his forties. Seeing cleverness, I took her as a disciple, taught her to write poems, and took care of their mother and daughter's life.
Wen's famous saying, it is easy to find priceless treasures, but it is rare to have lovers. Is it lucky or unfortunate for Yu?
Wen Tingyun, who fell from the sky, is also a teacher and friend like his father, which has lit up the light for You Wei's life. In the heart of the mysterious girl, I have a beautiful and hazy affection for this man who is thirty years older than her. Soon after, Wen left Chang 'an and began to miss a man deeply. She wrote a song "Send Wen Feiqing on a Winter Night" to Wen to express her thoughts on Wen. Although Wen understands the girl's heart, he is afraid to communicate with the girl's clear heart suddenly because of his ugly face and age gap. So I continued to write books and express my feelings.
Although Wen is very romantic, he still sticks to the boundaries between teachers and students. How to refuse Yu? He thought for a long time and decided to introduce Lucy li, a young genius, to her as a husband. It's very kind to her, but the wife in her hometown is rude when she sees her husband taking her in. First she resisted, and then she was kicked out of the house. In desperation, I was sent to a Taoist temple and said I would pick her up three years later. She became a Taoist, and it was at this time that she began to call Taoist's name "mystery".
Three years later, the Taoist middleman was empty, leaving only one person. Just then, she heard that Li Yi had taken his wife to Yangzhou to be an official. I feel abandoned. In the cold and cheerless scenery of Xian Yi, she held a candle in the middle of the night and wrote a poem "To send a neighbor's daughter/to send a member of Lucy li", which was later passed down through the ages. This poem is the most affectionate language, which not only shows her heartless resentment against Lucy li, but also describes the resentment of abandoned women in ancient times, highly summarizes the common misfortune of women in feudal society, and shouts out the painful voices of insulted and damaged women. Based on her own personal experience, she summed up the love and sad rhythm of women at that time, which contained profound philosophy.
It is easy to find priceless treasures, but it is rare to have a lover.
