What does it mean if you sell dry wine?

"If you sell dry wine bottles without them", in southern Fujian dialect, it means whoever has empty wine bottles will sell them.

People who buy discarded empty wine bottles and then sell them to recycling bins to make a little money are walking around the streets while shouting "If you sell dried wine, it's nothing." If anyone has empty wine bottles for sale at home, they will stop the waste collector. At that time, because the song "If the wine is dried and sold without" was sung in the streets and alleys all over the country, some literati found it novel and felt compassion for it, so they began to study this saying, which was very common in Taiwan and southern Fujian.

They don't know that if we really want to study this kind of "street language", it is inexhaustible and difficult to study thoroughly. Besides, when studying every sentence in southern Fujian, you should first be familiar with and understand its usage environment and word structure, otherwise you will definitely make a joke.

If we are really qualified to study the lyrics of "If wine is dry, if it is sold without", then at least the words that can be accurately disconnected, combined, and derived from it should be: wine, wine dry, dry wine, dry Yes; if, no if, if, if, for free; if sold, if sold no, sold for free, if sold, for how much, very easy to sell, sold no more, no sold, etc.

The story behind "If the wine is sold for nothing"

The veteran makes a living by picking up rags. One morning in winter, Uncle Dumb picked up an abandoned baby girl in a high-end residential area and named her Ami. From then on, the father and daughter depended on each other. Struggling in hard and poor days, he raised Ami with a meager income. With the help of young composer Shi Junmai, Ami became a famous singer.

Unexpectedly, after Ami became famous, she actually forgot Uncle Dumb’s kindness to her. At a concert, when Shi Junmai was near A Mei's house, he wanted to see A Mei's father. When he walked to A Mei's father's window, his neighbor told Shi Junmai how A Mei's father had used "If the Wine Is Dried to Sell Nothing" since childhood. The sound of the trumpet came to make A Mei happy, and Shi Junmai was inspired. He did not meet A Mei's father, but immediately returned home. In order to wake up A Mei, he wrote a song for her, which is this song "If the wine is dry and sold without" .

Shi Junmai sent the song to her a few days before the concert. Ami read the lyrics and burst into tears. She kept learning and singing that song, and all the scenes of her father's hard work raising her came to her eyes. Ami did not follow the agent's arrangement and sang the song "If the Wine Is Dry and Sold," although it offended the agent, she firmly expressed her guilt and remorse for her past life and regretted that she had made the wrong choice in life. car.
