The person who buried the flowers today smiled, but what did he mean by the person who buried the flowers in 2008?

The man who buried flowers today laughed at me, but he knew who it was when he buried flowers: I buried flowers today, and people laughed at my infatuation. Who will bury me after I die?

"The person who buries flowers today laughs, who was known when he was buried" comes from Burying Flowers, also known as "Flower Burying Ci", which is an archaic poem recited by the heroine Lin Daiyu in the 27th novel A Dream of Red Mansions by Cao Xueqin, a writer of the Qing Dynasty.

The poem "Mourning Flowers" shows Dai Yu's spiritual world destroyed by the cold reality through rich and peculiar imagination, bleak and sad pictures and strong sad emotions, and expresses the anxious experience and confused feelings arising from the complex struggle between life and death, love and hate. It is the representative of all the lamentations that Lin Daiyu experienced in her life, and it is also an important work by Cao Xueqin to shape the artistic image of Daiyu and show her personality characteristics.
