What does this poem mean? I laughed at Zheng Yuanhe, and I only bought cheerful songs from brothels. It is customary that no matter how rich my family is, I won't wear too many clothes.

This poem means that people often make fun of Zheng Yuanhe. They only know that hanging out in brothels is not about whether you have money at home or whether you are well dressed.

This poem is from the thirty-fifth chapter of The Water Margin, written by poet Xue Yong, poet Dai Zong, singer Jieyang Ling and poet Li.
