Begonia has no fragrance, shad has many thorns, and the dream of the Red Chamber is not yet finished

Meeting a friend in another country, the gold list is famous?

The first couplet is the three hates of Eileen Chang's life: one hates that begonias have no fragrance, the second hates that shad have many thorns, and the third hates that the dream of the Red Chamber is not yet finished.

The next couplet is the three joys of life: meeting a friend in another country, the night of the wedding, and the time of the gold list.

The three hates of life are the three joys of life.

The old friend: old friend; old friend.
