Excerpts from the original text:
The scenery in Jiangnan is very beautiful, and the picturesque scenery has long been familiar. When spring comes, the sun rises from the river, the flowers on the river are brighter than red, and the green river is greener than the blue grass. How can we make people not miss Jiangnan?
Interpretation of vernacular:
Jiangnan is a good place. I used to be familiar with the scenery there. In spring, the sun rises from the river, making the flowers in the river more fiery. The green river is greener than the blue grass. How can one not miss Jiangnan?
2. Tang Dynasty: Wei Zhuang's "Bodhisattva Man Everyone Says Jiangnan is Good"
Excerpts from the original text:
People say that Jiangnan is good, and tourists only join Jiangnan. The spring water is greener than the sky, and tourists can sleep on the boat listening to the rain.
The women selling wine in Jiangnan restaurant are all very beautiful, and their arms exposed when selling wine are as white as snow. Don't go home when the light is not fading. It must be extremely sad to go home.
Interpretation of vernacular:
Everyone says Jiangnan is good, and tourists here just want to die in Jiangnan. In spring, the river is clear and green, better than the blue sky. You can also fall asleep listening to the rain on the painted boat.
