I went to town yesterday and came back with tears in my eyes.
Those who wear Luo Qi are not silkworm farmers.
2. Translation
A woman who lives in the country and raises silkworms for a living went to the city to sell silk yesterday. When she came back, she was in tears, and the sad tears even soaked the towel.
Because she saw in the city that people wearing beautiful silk clothes were not silkworm farmers who worked as hard as her!
Step 3 enjoy
Although the work is objectively described without comment, the sympathy for the fate of the silkworm girl and the injustice to society permeate the poem, which is thought-provoking. The structure of the poem is simple, the language is simple, and it hits the nail on the head. This poem and Li Shen's poem "mowing the grass at noon every day" are masterpieces of China.
