1, plum blossom is cold-resistant, beautiful and unique, has the characteristics of resisting frost and snow, and is a symbol of perseverance. Yongmei's poems include Mao Zedong's original words "Buji Yong Mei": "Joe does not strive for spring, but only reports it. When the mountain flowers are in full bloom, she laughs in the bushes. "
2. Orchids, one with elegant flowers and clear colors, and the other born in a secluded place, are often regarded as a symbol of humility. Tang Li Bai's "Ancient Style" has: "Lonely orchids live in secluded gardens, and many grasses are destroyed." Although it shines on Yang Chunhui, it is sad and high in autumn. "
Bamboo that never withers in winter has its own beauty. It is honest, humble, neither supercilious nor supercilious, and natural and unrestrained. It is often regarded as a symbol of elegant people with different customs. Zheng Banqiao Zhushi: "I insist that the green hills are not relaxed, and the roots are in the cliffs. A thousand blows are still strong, and the wind is east, west, north and south. "
4, chrysanthemum, it is not only beautiful and elegant, fragrant, but also gorgeous after the flowers wither, and does not compete with others, so it has always been used to symbolize the unyielding noble character of nature. Song Mei Yao Chen's "The Ends": "The golden stamens are scattered, and although they wither, they will not change their fragrance. The deep forest is secluded and quiet. "

In the Ming Dynasty, Huang Fengchi compiled Four Spectres of Zhu Mei Lanju, and from then on, Mei Zhulanju was called the "Four Heavenly Kings". Painters use "four gentlemen" to flaunt the noble character of gentlemen. "Ji Ya Cai Mei Cynthia Chrysanthemum Four Sketches": "The study is bright, and those who choose plum, bamboo, orchid and chrysanthemum alone can cleanse people's dirty intestines and make their bones bright with their elegance and elegance."
The four gentlemen are not vain, but they do have their own characteristics: plums, cutting ice and snow, and arrogance; Orchids, empty valleys, fragrant, narcissistic; Bamboo, sifting the wind and making the moon, is a chic life; Chrysanthemum and Shuang Ling are their own, and they won't be angry.
Mei Lanzhuju's poetic sentiment towards Mei Lanzhuju is based on the profound national cultural spirit. Mei Lan and Zhu Ju occupy four seasons, and China literati regard them as "four gentlemen", which shows their understanding of time order and the meaning of life. Gao Meijie proudly stands on the shore, orchids are elegant and ethereal, bamboo is modest and straight, and chrysanthemums are chaste in Leng Yan.
China people load their true feelings in a flower, a grass, a stone and a tree, thus making flowers, trees, grass and stones break away from or expand their original meanings and become symbols and metaphors of personality.
