One day I went to Shantang, outside the Gate, and met with a few trees of weeping begonias, I couldn't help but go closer, stood under the flowers for a while, full of spring colors, and felt that the cloudy day at this time was also just right, no need to be sunny, no need to drizzle. As long as the begonia blossoms bloom, it is good weather.
While taking pictures, someone passed by and asked, "What kind of flower is this?" It's so pretty. Listening to people praise it for its good looks, my heart is even more joyful, and I laughed and replied: "Weeping begonias." Its peduncle is slender and long, and it is easy to recognize. ”

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the area around Zhangmen was once the most prosperous place in Suzhou, and Cao Xueqin's "Dream of the Red Chamber" called it "the place of first- and second-class wealth and wealth in the red dust".
At that time, the men and women in the city traveled in the spring, mostly to the shihu or shantang area. In the Qing Dynasty Shao Changyu's poem "Ye You", it is written: "At the beginning of the spring in February, I invite female companions when I step on the green. Small peach tiger hill red, new willow mountain pond short. ”
Outings, as a tradition of spring in Suzhou, have continued. In previous years, whenever the grass grew warblers flew miscellaneous peanut trees, strangers were weaving, exploring the ghost to find better than the mountain pond, so it was not lively! In the middle of this spring, it is time to see the flowers, but due to the delay of the epidemic, there are few tourists, not more than in previous years.
These few begonias outside the gate are really blooming well. Let people come and go, the flow of traffic is endless, the begonia flowers are here, the light and uniform rouge, the silence is beautiful. Passers-by, even if it is only a quick glance, after thinking back, their hearts will be covered with gentle rouge.

If it is said that the Humble Administrator's Garden "Begonia Chunwu" has a unique "show" word, then the begonia in front of the Lingering Garden Wufeng Immortal Hall occupies a "Ya" character.
Wufeng Xianguan, also known as Nanmu Hall, is beautifully furnished, elegant in style, and the irregular lake stone outside the door is stomped on, and the shape is like a cloud, which echoes with the majestic and steep lake stone mountain in the court, and has the meaning of white clouds, which is amazing.
Outside the door, the begonias are shaded, and the smoke on the flower branches is beautiful and elegant. There are many kinds of spring colors in the park, and the most important thing to miss is this carmine begonia color. Especially when the rain first passed, the begonia petals were covered with water droplets, full of water, and it was even more beautiful.
Sheng Kang, the old lord of the Lingering Garden, once inscribed the Wufeng Immortal Hall: "The eunuch sea is four dynasties, and it is better to live in the house, and hughes live up to the clear wind and bright moon; borrow a place in another town, because of the entrustment, let him arrange strange stone flowers." "If you want to come to the famous flowers arranged in the garden of Shengkang, there must be begonias." If there are no begonias in the garden, then the spring color will be greatly reduced.

As an ancient ornamental flower in China, begonia flowers have both quiet and beautiful meanings, and literati poems are also chanted.
Zheng Gu's poem "Begonia" says: "Chao Drunken Twilight Yin did not see enough, and envied him butterfly in the deep branches." Su Shi's poem "Begonia" says: "I am only afraid of going to sleep late at night, so I burn high candles to illuminate red makeup." Yan Shu's "Appeal to Heartfelt Feelings" word cloud: "Begonia beads are embellished with a heavy weight." Dawn near the curtain. Rouge who with even light, biased to the side of the face thick. Wang Shipeng's "Dotted Lips" word cloud: "Silk is hanging down, Yanran smiles at the new makeup, before and after the Jinting Pavilion, when the swallows come." ”
After many years, the begonia flowers are still swaying in the poems, beautiful and euphemistic, and people are lowly.
