Sack of Fireflies Reflecting Snow Idioms

Bag Fluorescence Reflecting Snow is a composite of two idioms, each from a different allusion.

1, sacs of fireflies from the Tang-Ouyang Xun and other compositions "Arts and Letters Classes Gathering - Renewal of the Jin Yang Autumn" and Tang-Xu Jian compositions "Beginning of Learning" Volume 2 cited "Song Qi Language". The story is about Che Yin catching many fireflies in the summer night to use as lamps for reading. Since Che Yin's family was poor and his father could not provide him with a good study environment, Che Yin could only use the daytime to memorize poems.

One summer night, Che Yin was memorizing an article in the courtyard, when he suddenly saw many fireflies flying in the low sky, and the flickering light in the darkness was a bit dazzling. He was inspired, thought if many fireflies together, not become a light?

So he found a white silk pocket, grabbed a few dozen fireflies and put them inside, then tied the mouth of the pocket and hung it up. It wasn't very bright, but it was barely enough for reading. Since then, as long as there are fireflies, he went to catch some to use as a lamp. As he studied hard, he finally made a difference.

2. "Reflecting Snow" is from the story of Sun Kang in the winter, which is cited in Tang-Xu Jian's "Records of the Beginning of Learning," Volume 2, Song and Qi. The story is that Sun Kang used the light reflected by the snow to read books at night in winter. Like Che Yin, Sun Kang's family was poor and had no extra money to buy lamp oil for him to study at night. So, he utilized the reflection of snow to study diligently. The phrase "reflecting snow on a firefly" was later used to describe the behavior of a poor family who studied hard and diligently.
