Xi Shi is walking in the street with a frown. Dong Shi, an ugly woman in the same village, saw the Xi stone like this and thought it was beautiful. When she went back, she also covered her chest and walked in the street with a frown. When the rich people in the village saw her like this, they all closed the door and refused to come out; When the poor see it, they take their wives and children and stay away from it. The ugly woman saw the beauty of the frown, but she didn't understand why it was beautiful.
