moonlight
The moonlight of this night seems to be no different from the moonlight of a normal day.
Some people say that tonight's moon is not too bright.
But Huang Tingjian apparently disagrees with such a statement.
The moon is obviously very good, where does the statement that it is not bright come from?
It just so happens that there is a good piper in the seat, the clear tone is melodious, and the Great Joy Huang Tingjian grasps the pen in his hand, and the text does not add a little to the next song "Nian Nu Jiao":
Broken rainbow Rain, net autumn sky, mountain dyeing eyebrows new green. Gui Yingfu Shu, who is the way, this evening Qinghui is insufficient. Thousands of miles of blue sky, where is the sister," drive this round of jade. The cold light is chaotic, for whom to take a bias.
Young from me to chase the tour, evening cool trail, around the Garden Forest Wood. Pour down the Golden Lotus family for thousands of miles, and rejoice in the former genus. Lao Tzu was born in peace, Jiangnan and Jiangbei, and loved Linfeng songs the most. Sun Lang smiled and sat down to spray frost bamboo.

Who said
Before the lyrics of "Nian Nu Jiao", the original author quoted:
On August 17, stay with your nephews for the month. There are guests who are good at playing the flute and drinking wine.
From this small quotation, we can see the state of the author and a group of friends at that time -
Wait month.
As for the characters, in addition to the author, there are "nephews", as well as a person who is nominated alone:
Sun Yanli.
Nian Nu Jiao was written in 1094 (the first year of Shao Sheng), when the author Huang Tingjian zheng lived in the southwestern prefecture of Rongzhou (present-day Yibin, Sichuan).
In this way, the statement of "nephews" is very intriguing, is it difficult to believe that during the period when the author was degraded, he also dragged his family with his mouth, not only with his family, but also with a large group of relatives?
This possibility is not nothing, but it is quite small.
The version of the same poem, with its small quotations, some of the ancient texts recorded is as follows:
On the seventeenth day of August, with all the beings...
Therefore, "nephews" and "all beings" are just a bunch of friends of the author.
Of course, if you must adopt the term "nephew", it is not impossible, but at this time, the interpretation of "nephew" should be understood as a young person who is one generation younger than the author.
August 17, just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, does not seem to be the best time to stay in the month, even if it is sixteen or not.
Fifteen is sixteen moons, but if it reaches seventeen, what is the moon to be?
It is no wonder that there is a voice in the crowd that says, "Qinghui is not enough"--I have just seen the moon of fifteen and sixteen, and what is the moon in front of me?
Thinking that the author is in a period of being degraded, whether it is life or career, all are in the period of decline, the author's situation and the seventeenth moon, there are some similar meanings.
In this way, the author does not agree with the statement that "this evening's brightness is insufficient", and there is a possibility of a deeper interpretation:
Even if life is in an uneven period, the scenery in between is still considerable and pleasant.
Jun did not see the still bright moonlight, and continued to shine in a cup of Chinese and American wine, was it not a beautiful invitation of Grace to the world with great affection and tenderness?

Frost bamboo
Although the moonlight is beautiful, as far as Huang Tingjian's own situation is concerned, it seems that it is not so harmonious with the word "beautiful".
After all, he is now in a degraded state.
Career is not satisfactory, ambitions cannot be stretched, talents are not appreciated, for readers, often mean the biggest setback in life.
In this sense, sending love to the landscape or nostalgia for the countryside is nothing more than a helpless passive choice.
Huang Tingjian put his eyes on the garden in front of him, the moon color is bright, the evening cool path, the garden of his friend Zhang Kuanfu is lined with trees, which is pleasing to the eye, and it is also an excellent place to walk and enjoy the moon.
Therefore, life is still beautiful, and the world is still worth it.
Huang Tingjian had to comfort himself in this way, and he could only comfort himself in this way.
Whether it is life or ambition, many times it is necessary to reconcile with the actual situation.
What about not reconciling, will everything change because of his stubbornness, or even because of his anger?
Look at these young people around you, infected by their enthusiasm and vitality, better than falling into their own frustration.
What's more, such a gathering in life is rare.
In such a rare reunion, still clinging to their own frustration, will they not fail to live up to this gathering, but also to the good friends around them?
Regardless of all this, doesn't he still have his favorite bagpipe sound?
Jiangnan and jiangbei, drifting uncertainly, only the melodious sound of the flute brought him infinite happiness.
Sun Lang smiled and sat down to spray frost bamboo.
God is heartbroken for him, and in this foreign land, he also rewards this beautiful voice.
What does the husband ask for, and what does the husband ask for?

Room
The emotions expressed in "Nian Nu Jiao" are complex.
There is both a calm recounting of the past and admiration for the beautiful scenery in front of you.
But it is difficult to say that Huang Tingjian's state in the lyrics is cheerful, or not cheerful.
If you must say, what you can say, perhaps Huang Tingjian is trying his best to comfort himself, but also to comfort the people around him.
However, I have to admit that some people's open-mindedness is relatively easy, such as Su Shi's; while some people's open-mindedness must be achieved through a lot of struggle.
For example, the one in front of you.
This is not to distinguish between high and low, but to say that the life experienced by each person, even in similar circumstances, subjective feelings and acceptance, will be very different.
After all, A is not B, B is not C, and C has no way to directly equate with A.
But the good thing that Huang Tingjian or Huang Tingjian shows us is that no matter what life is like, no matter what the circumstances of life, we can still find something heartwarming from it.
The moon is beautiful, there is wine and friends, what do you want in life.
Not to mention, there's the music you love the most of your life.
The sound of the flute is clear, and you can effortlessly cross all the obstacles and sorrows of life.
That was the human world he was trying to live in, and it was also the human world that he should strive to love.
Life Jun said
"The flute is wonderful, just like this wonderful world."
