You should gladly accept Bai Juyi's invitation and reply to Bai Juyi, talking about your life freely and drinking until dawn. You know? It's snowing in the evening, so I can't drink a cup. ?This poem comes from Bai Juyi's "Ask Liu Nineteenth". Liu Shijiu was Bai Juyi's friend. Bai Juyi wanted to ask Liu Shijiu if he could meet up for a drink and a chat in this interesting environment.
The artistic conception of the whole poem "Ask Liu Nineteen" is very subtle
First of all, let's take a look at the first two sentences of "Ask Liu Nineteen":? Green ants have new fermented wine, A small red clay stove. ?These two lines of poem indicate that Bai Juyi has taken out the newly brewed rice wine and is preparing to entertain his friends. A small stove made of red mud was also put out to warm the newly brewed rice wine. The artistic conception is very interesting. After all, this casual and natural attitude towards getting along is just right for close friends.
At this time, the next two sentences bring out the meaning of invitation, "It's snowing in the evening, can you drink a cup?" ?The meaning of this poem is that it is getting late and it looks like it will snow. Can you stay and drink some wine? This feeling of retention is beyond words. I believe Bai Juyi's friends will not insist on leaving.
As Bai Juyi’s friend, Liu Jiujiu would leave a drink
Since Liu Jiuyi can go to Bai Juyi’s residence to visit him, naturally the friendship between the two parties is very good. of. Bai Juyi was able to retain his friend Liu Shijiu for an evening drink, so he naturally valued the time he spent with his friends. And the environment gave Liu Shijiu the desire to stay. First of all, Bai Juyi created a very good drinking atmosphere. He brought out his newly brewed rice wine and a small stove that was the finishing touch.
The rice wine has green foam, so it looks like green ants, but the small stove used to warm the wine is red, one red and one green forming a sharp contrast. Moreover, it was already getting late and it was about to snow. In this kind of weather, staying at a friend's house to have a drink with them felt like a solitary self-admiration.
So the reply to Bai Juyi must be a poem that agrees to the invitation. This kind of snowy weather, where you can warm wine by the stove and drink freely, is very suitable for reminiscing and chatting among friends.
