Old people often say, "One day husband and wife are grateful for a hundred days." What does "day" mean?

In our life, there are many proverbs, and each scene has different expressions. The so-called proverb is simply a "special" spoken language created by the broad masses of the people. Its characteristics are concise, easy to understand and profound, which well reflects people's life experiences and wishes.

Every proverb corresponds to every different scene, even used on different carriers. For example, as far as the weather is concerned, there is a proverb called "it will rain when it is yellow", and in the relationship between husband and wife, there is a proverb called "it takes a couple a day to be grateful." In short, proverbs vary according to the environment and carrier. In this article, we will introduce you to what is the meaning of "one hundred days' kindness of husband and wife". What does the word "day" mean?

The source of "one day's husband and wife are grateful for a hundred days" comes from the seventy-third chapter of Jin Meiping written by Lan Shaosheng in the Ming Dynasty, which says:

"As the saying goes, the husband and wife have a hundred days of grace, and they also have the meaning of going astray. A hot person is missing a finger. How can you not miss it without pain! "

Of course, in fact, the story explanation first appeared in Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio.

This Zhang Hung-chien used to be a celebrity in Yongping House. On one occasion, a local official executed a scholar with heavy punishment. Many scholars in the government were very angry and begged Zhang Hung-chien to write a complaint and submit it to the governor for a report. But at that time, officials protected each other, and the magistrate bribed his superiors with heavy money. Finally, instead of being punished, the local officials arrested all the scholars who complained. Seeing that things were not good, Zhang Hung-chien fled overnight!

When Zhang Hung-chien fled to Fengxiang House, he had spent all his travelling expenses and lost his way. He doesn't know where to go next. Just when he was cornered, he happened to meet a fox spirit' Shi Shunhua'. They hit it off and finally became lovers, very loving. This blink of an eye is three years.

One day, Zhang Hung-chien told Shi Shunhua that he had been away from home for three years and missed his wife very much, so he wanted to go back and have a look. Shi Shunhua said angrily, "I am so kind to you, but you are thinking about your wife. I really don't know if you really love me. " Zhang Hung-chien quickly explained, "Why do you say that? One day, couples will be grateful for a hundred days! I will miss you in the future, just like I miss her now. "

In the face of "glib" Zhang Hung-chien, Fox Fairy Shi Shunhua finally sent him back.

This is the story about "One day couples are grateful for a hundred days"!

The meaning of "one day's husband and wife are grateful for a hundred days" After understanding its origin, let's take a look at its meaning. The so-called "one-day husband and wife are grateful for a hundred days" means that once you get married, you must be deeply grateful.

The "day" here usually refers to the length of time, and the contrast between "one day" and "one hundred days" shows the deep feelings between husband and wife. Of course, the "hundred days" here doesn't really mean "hundred days", but "everlasting", which is just a virtual reference, just like the ancients used "three" to express many meanings.

Of course, you can also think that "even if you are a husband and wife for only one day, you will have a hundred days of friendship." Although this metaphor doesn't seem so appropriate, it is still an explanation.

In this case, the word "day" does not refer to time, but expresses a feeling. The length of time together doesn't mean deep feelings. Only the spiritual harmony between two people is the most important thing. After all, love has no preconditions such as time, and true love can transcend all time and space.
