When there is no storm, a loyal wife. Flowers bloom and fall, and regret can't make this life stay. What does this mean?

Interpretation: Everyone will have rainy and dark days. At this time, we must hold on. One day, the sun will rise again and the rain will clear up. The flowers are blooming, but when we meet again in a few days, they have withered. Seize the moment and don't let this life leave regrets.

Origin: The Water Margin written by Shi Naian at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty.

Original text:

As the saying goes, contentment is always happy.

There is only a thin line between ideal and reality.

When there is no storm, a loyal wife.

Flowers bloom and fall, and regret can't make this life stay.

Vernacular translation:

Don't talk about contentment, because everything will go up in smoke in the end; The distance between ideal and reality is often only a thin line. As long as we focus on down-to-earth work, we can cross this line. In the face of difficulties, those who persist until the end can see the rainbow, hope and victory after the storm. Seize the moment and don't let this life leave regrets.

Creative background:

In the Southern Song Dynasty, the story of Liangshan heroes was widely circulated. At that time, Gong Kai, a painter and writer, wrote a preface to the praise of thirty-six people in Song Jiang, saying: The stories of thirty-six people including Song Jiang have spread all over the streets; Painters also write pictures and shadows for them.

The earliest blueprint of Water Margin is the legacy of Xuanhe in Song Dynasty, which focuses on the main characters such as Yang Zhi selling knives, Chao Gai ganging up to grab the birth outline, Song Jiang killing and Lin Chong, jy, and He Lu. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, there were many stories adapted from Water Margin.

Shi Naian sorted out and processed the stories and characters in Water Margin, and faithfully accepted the views of the people in the process of writing Water Margin, which is the ideological basis for the great achievements of Water Margin.
