Qinhuai is gorgeous, all beautiful and talented, each good at its beauty, and it is the best. Except for Gu Meisheng, Yoko's wife, who was greedy for money and ignored the festival, the jokes of the other seven people were all passed down as beautiful talks and became the objects of novels, plays and other art forms. Among them, my favorite is Dong Xiaowan's "Sorrow in illness, sitting alone in the window and caressing the lyre". Dong Xiaowan, born in A.D. 1624, was a prostitute in the late Ming Dynasty. The names and numbers are all due to the admiration for Li Bai. She is proficient in poetry, good at calligraphy and painting, intelligent and beautiful, and sold herself as a prostitute because of her parents' divorced life. When he was just 16 years old, he was already famous. Liu is good at poetry and painting, and Dong Xiaowan's talent should be the most comprehensive and outstanding among the eight beauties in Qinhuai, and she is called "the saint in the needle". Not only that, but her other specialty is even more surprising ―― she is also one of the top ten chefs in China! People say, "If you want to catch a man's heart, you must catch a man's stomach". While other sisters are grooming their own beauty and embellishing their calligraphy and painting, Dong Xiaowan has devoted a lot of efforts to the kitchen at the same time, which makes her not only a beauty, but also a rare virtue of a famous prostitute in a brothel.

This rare girl from IKEA soon found her ideal home. 1639, she met Mao Xiang, who came last after having obtained the provincial examination, in Suzhou Bantang. Mao Xiang, a native of Rugao, Jiangsu Province, is one of the four sons of Ming Fu Society. His literary talent is romantic, of course, he also has a small problem of playing with noble sons. Xiaowan fell in love with him at first sight and called him a "stranger". Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I have never seen him as a stranger. The only thing that can explain Xiaowan's investment is fate! According to the general routine, the next step is that two people fall in love, then the family objects, and then you will go somewhere or build a house to live separately. However, their love story is another interpretation.

Mao Xiang didn't fall in love with Xiao Wan at first sight, but always loved another beautiful woman, Chen Yuanyuan. There is such a gentle, virtuous and beautiful Xiaowan who is suitable for marrying home, but she is struggling to pursue Chen who can only play pipa. It really makes people complain, "Are you blind?"

At this time, Xiaowan's courage, determination and persistence were shown. She is surrounded by many suitors. She has more choices, but she trusts her vision and judgment and never gives up her feelings.

She is neither stalking nor looking for new love, but actively waiting in silent efforts. It was not until the Iraqis disappeared that they revisited Chen Yuanyuan and made up with Xiaowanyan with the help of Liu Heqian.

So, should we face the pressure from Pijiang's famous family and cultural masters? That's not true. It's reasonable to take a risk, thinking that what your family likes must be good, and happily accepted Dong Xiaowan as his concubine. What's more, the pioneer also has a gentle and kind wife, some of whom are Qin's and some are Su's. The whole family likes Dong Xiaowan very much and get along well. Because his wife is in poor health, the family simply handed over the accounts and housekeeping to Xiaowan, which is a great trust and attention.

I'm afraid I didn't feel so lucky to marry Xiao Wan until now. I'm afraid I'll feel "settle for second best" and regret it. Without marrying Xiaowan, his life would not be so romantic and elegant. In the garden study, some people are talking and laughing, some are spreading paper and grinding ink, some are drinking tea and listening to the piano in their spare time, and some are traveling hand in hand. There are ingenious and varied food entrances for three meals a day, and even a pile of pickles and a handful of wild vegetables can make this famous chef make a special fragrance and taste.

Until now, the "winter meat" and "winter soup" invented by Xiaowan are still delicious enjoyment pursued by many foodies. Xiaowan's undressing service and care when he was ill several times in Pibijiang added a bit of true feelings to the couple's feelings. Although they live in poverty because of the war, what is more important and happier than being with the people they love and living with the respect of their families?

Xiaowan is happy. This happiness is not accidental. Her decisiveness, intelligence, gentleness, thoughtfulness, ability and affinity have made her a hard-to-find destination for other brothel women. Compared with them, she is not aloof, indifferent and illusory. She combines fireworks with elegance and exquisiteness. Regrettably, that day was not a holiday. Xiaowan died after living at home for nine years, leaving only the endless nostalgia of his family and his heartfelt call to start a business abroad.

Color clouds disperse easily, but glass is fragile. Maybe Xiaowan is so beautiful. Legend has it that Dong Xiaowan did not die of illness, but was sent to the Qing Palace as a concubine of Shunzhi, that is, Princess Dong Hubei.

Anyone with a little knowledge of history knows that this is idle talk, but in that era when there was no hype, people could associate her with the emperor, which further proved how excellent she was and made people feel even more sorry while admiring!
