Interpretation of poetry

"I shine on the moon with all my heart, and the moon shines on the ditch", which means that I am kind to you, but you are indifferent and ungrateful. My sincere efforts have not been rewarded and respected.

Creation background

The phenomenon that a scholar abandoned his wife after making a fortune in Thailand described in Pipa Story is closely related to the imperial examination system in Yuan Dynasty. The imperial examination in Yuan Dynasty was interrupted for more than 70 years. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, the imperial examination system was good and bad. Scholars lost their position in society, and their social status declined sharply, so the saying of "nine sons and ten beggars" appeared. The tragic works that led to the condemnation of the scholar's ungrateful marriage lost their realistic pertinence. Scholars with low status have become the object of sympathy. The works praising the sincerity of literati have gradually become the mainstream of traditional operas in China.
