What is the content of the allusion of "Zhuo Wenjun sells wine as a servant"?
Zhuo Wenjun, a native of Linqiong (now Qionglai, Sichuan) in the Western Han Dynasty, is the daughter of Zhuo Wangsun, a rich man in Linqiong. She is beautiful, familiar with temperament and good at playing the drum.

One day, Zhuo Wangsun gave a big banquet and invited the local county magistrate and Sima Xiangru. Sima Xiangru, whose name is Changqing, was born in Chengdu, Shu County, and was a famous lyricist. He longed for Zhuo Wenjun's talent for a long time, so he deliberately played a song "Phoenix Begging for the Phoenix" at the banquet to attract Zhuo Wenjun. At that time, Zhuo Wenjun heard the piano, peeked at Sima Xiangru from the outdoor, and saw that he was graceful and elegant, and suddenly he had a good impression. As a result, on this night, Zhuo Wenjun sneaked out from home and threw herself into Sima Xiangru's arms. Unexpectedly, Sima Xiangru's home was empty and destitute.

When Zhuo Wangsun heard this, he was furious and said, "I don't want to kill such a daughter, but I won't give her a penny." Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun felt unable to live in Chengdu, so both husband and wife returned to Linqiong. In Linqiong, Sima Xiangru sold all his horses and chariots, and opened a wine shop with the money he got. He told Zhuo Wenjun to sell wine on the counter, while he wore crotch-less pants all day and washed wine with handyman.

When Zhuo Wangsun learned about this, he felt great shame, so he refused the guests and stayed at home. Later, Zhuo Wangsun's younger brother persuaded: "Now that Wen Jun has married Sima Xiangru and Sima Xiangru is a talented person, why bother to humiliate them?" Hearing this, Zhuo Wangsun had to give Wen Jun hundreds of slaves, millions of money, clothes and quilts and other dowry things.

With money, Xiangru and Wen Jun returned to Chengdu, bought fields and houses, and became local rich households.
