Life is easy to get old, but it is hard to get old.
Today is Chongyang, and the yellow flowers in the battlefield are particularly fragrant.
The annual autumn wind is not as strong as spring.
Better than spring, just like Wan Li frost on the vast river.
Interpretation in vernacular Chinese: people are easy to get old in their lives, but the sky is not easy to get old. The Double Ninth Festival comes every year. Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and the chrysanthemums on the battlefield smell good. The autumn wind blows hard year after year, not the glory of spring. But it is better than spring, and there is endless autumn frost on the boundless Tingjiang River.

Creation background:1On June 22nd, 929, the 7th Congress of the Red Fourth Front Army was held in Longyan, western Fujian. At the meeting, Mao Zedong was criticized by Zhu De and Chen Yi as "paternalism" and was not elected secretary of the former enemy committee. Mao Zedong immediately left the army, went to Shanghang to guide local work, and almost died of malaria. It was not until 1 1 26th that Mao Zedong, who had recovered from a serious illness, was reinstated with the support of the September letter from the Shanghai Central Committee (presided over by Zhou Enlai at that time). This poem reflects the mood when you are sick.
Picking Mulberry Seeds and Chongyang is a poem written by Comrade Mao Zedong in the autumn of 1929. At that time, Mao Zedong, accompanied by his wife He Zizhen, was recovering from illness. On the eve of the Double Ninth Festival, the golden wind is refreshing, the osmanthus is fragrant, the sky is clear and Wan Li, and the forest is dyed. Comrade Mao Zedong saw the wild chrysanthemums on both sides of Tingjiang River in full bloom, like dazzling pieces of gold, and wrote this song "Picking Mulberry Seeds and Chongyang".
