The so-called "Su Xi Wè i Há n zhā ng y ǐ shí zh yǐ" comes from "Travel to Fang Ting" by Huang Tingjian, a writer and calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Original sentence:
When a scholar covers only one country, he is called a national scholar; When the color of women covers a country, it is called the national color; When the fragrance of orchids covers a country, it means the fragrance of this country. Since ancient times, people have known that you are blue, and you don't have to wait for Chu to pursue ministers before you become expensive. Lan even seems to be a gentleman, born in the mountains and sparse grass, not for no one but for incense; Snow and ice are fierce, killing people like hemp, and they will not change their nature in the coming year. It is the so-called "being isolated from the world without being bored, not seeing it, but not being bored". Although orchids are fragrant and clean, peaceful coexistence is different from Xiao Ai. When the breeze passes, its fragrance is rich and full of rooms and halls. The so-called chapter is also timely.
Translation:
If a scholar surpasses other scholars in talent and morality, then he becomes a national scholar; If a woman is more beautiful than other beautiful women, it is called national color; If the fragrance of orchids is better than all other flowers, it is called national fragrance. Since ancient times, people have attached importance to orchids, not after Qu Yuan praised them.
Orchids are very similar to gentlemen: they grow in deep mountains and barren jungles and do not give off fragrance because no one knows; Don't change your nature after being brutally destroyed by ice and snow. This is what we call "no worries, no worries, no appointments". Although orchids are fragrant and beautiful, they are no different from Xiao Zhi at ordinary times. A breeze blew, and his fragrance was rich and well known. This is what we call the hidden good side, waiting for the opportunity to show ourselves.
