Feeling a thousand dollars, the whole city is ashamed. This poem comes from Sun Chuo's Song of Jasper in Wei and Jin Dynasties, which roughly means: Thank you for your friendship with me, but I am ashamed that I am not beautiful. The meaning expressed in this poem can be said to be quite euphemistic. Through self-humility, the woman said that I was not beautiful enough to deserve your deep affection for me, so that the other party would know that you disagreed as soon as you read it. This poem is really suitable for refusing others' confession.
I will never think about it, so don't think about me either. Give your past and my heart to others. These two poems are from Xie Ximeng's "Operator", which roughly means: I no longer miss you, and you no longer miss me. Give your heart to others. Compared with the last sentence, the tone of these two poems is obviously much tougher. Tell each other straight away that you still have the heart to pursue others. These two poems are more suitable for rejecting those who are attached to others and letting them leave you alone.
Return your double beads, my eyes are full of tears, and I regret not meeting you before I got married. ? This poem comes from Zhang Ji's Ode to a Daughter, which roughly means: I returned the double beads you gave me with tears, but I only hate meeting you before I got married. Slightly different from the first two sentences, this poem is more suitable to express the meaning that you already have a sweetheart. Although I appreciate you very much, I'm already taken, and I already have someone I like, which can only be said to be a great pity. The meaning of this poem is euphemistic and will not embarrass others at all.
