The idiom of "Peach Blossoms on the Face of a Man" comes from a poem by Cui Gu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, entitled "Questioning the South Village of the Capital City". Cui Gu was a native of Boling (present-day Anping County, Hebei Province), a scholar in the 12th year of the reign of Zhenyuan, and a minister of the Lingnan Province. There is a story about his composition of this poem in Taiping Guangji (太平广记): Cui Gu was traveling alone in the south of Chang'an on the Ching Ming Festival (清明节)one year before he was awarded the bachelor's degree, when he saw a farmhouse in full bloom of peach blossoms, and went up to knock on the gate of the farmhouse, wanting to ask for a cup of water and wine to quench his thirst. Surprisingly, a woman with extraordinary beauty and colorful peach blossoms opened the door to receive him. The following year, on the Qingming Festival, Cui Gu could not help but visit the woman. Peach blossom is still the same, but the door is locked, no trace of her. Disappointed, Cui Gu inscribed the poem "Peach Blossoms on the Face of a Human" on the doorway to remember the woman of extraordinary beauty. Later on, the idiom of "peach blossoms on the face of a human being" evolved into a phrase that not only describes the beauty of a woman's face, but is also used to describe the sadness that the scenery is still the same, but the people are no longer the same.

Ijuan was even more surprised and decided to drink slowly and wait; in a little while a beggar came in with the food he had asked for. He lifted the bell with one hand and put the food in the basket with the other. When he had finished, he closed the ancient bell and left; soon the beggar came again and probed for food from under the ancient bell. After eating, he probed again, as easily as if he had opened the box. Everyone was amazed. Ijuan asked, "Why do you beg when you are so capable?" The answer was, "I eat so much that no one will hire me." Ijuan advised him to join the army, and the beggar was worried about not having a door. So I Juan took him home and gave him a full meal, estimating that he could eat the food of five or six men. He changed his clothes and shoes and socks, and sent him away with fifty pieces of gold.

Ten years later, Chay Juan had a son or nephew in southern Fujian as a magistrate, suddenly a general named Wu Liuyi came to pay his respects. In the course of conversation, asked: "Mr. I Juan is your who?" He replied, "He is my uncle. Is he old with the general?" Said he, "He is my teacher.

But the general's attitude became more and more respectful, and after sending away the other guests, he invited I Juan to enter three or four doors, and when he saw a woman coming and going, he knew that it was a private house, and I Juan stopped. The general bowed and invited I Juan to take his seat in the hall. Some people brought him his robe, and the general suddenly got up and changed his clothes, so that Yijuan did not know what he wanted. Several men pressed him into his seat, and the general bowed to him with the great honor of meeting his father. IJuan was astonished and even more puzzled. The general changed into civilian clothes, accompanied him to his seat, and laughed: "Does not the gentleman remember the beggar who lifted the bell?"
