A room covered with gold leaf(金迷紙醉)

 

A room covered with gold leaf(金迷紙醉)

 

During the Tang Dynasty in China, there was a doctor whose name was (Meng Fu).

There is a story about him in history books.

 

He is a doctor who specializes in treating poisonous sores. Because of his good medical skills, many members of the royal family have sought him for treatment.

 

He has also entered the palace many times for this reason.

 

After he retired at an old age, he left the capital and moved to Sichuan Province, which is now China.

 

He built a house by himself, and in this house, he specially designed a room.

 

Everything in this room is covered with a thin layer of gold leaf.

When sunlight shines into this room from the window, this room becomes very dazzling.

 

Once, a good friend of his came to him.

Halfway through the chat, he said to this friend mysteriously.

 

I have been in and out of the palace many times before, so I copied a room exactly like the room in the palace.

Do you want to visit it?

 

This good friend said yes.

 

He brought this good friend to this room, where they chatted and drank tea.

In the evening, this friend is going home.

 

He asked this good friend.

How do you feel now.

 

Said this good friend.

The light of gold in these rooms is so shining, I feel as if I have drunk, and I feel a little dizzy.

 

This idiom is used to describe a person living a luxurious and flashy life.

 

Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts did you have after hearing this story.

How do you design your room? What do you think is the real luxury of life?

I hope this story will give you some new gains.

金迷紙醉(A room covered with gold leaf)

 

中國的唐王朝時代,有一個醫生,他的名字叫做(孟斧)

歷史書中記載了一個他的故事。

 

他是一位專門醫治毒瘡的醫生,因為他的醫術很好,所以許多的皇室成員都找他治過病。

 

他也因為這個原因所以多次進入過皇宮。

 

他年紀大退休之後,他便離開首都,他搬到現在中國的四川省。

 

他自已蓋了一間房子,在這間房子中,他特別設計了一間房間。

 

這間房間中全部的東西都貼上了一層薄薄的金箔。

當陽光從窗戶中照射到這個房間中的時候,這間房間會變得十分耀眼。

 

有一次,他的一個好朋友來找他。

聊天到一半,他很神祕的對這個朋友說。

 

我以前曾經多次進出皇宮,所以我仿製了一間跟皇宮中的房間一模一樣的房間。

你想參觀一下嗎。

 

這個好朋友說好啊。

 

他帶這個好朋友到這個房間中,他們在裡面聊天喝茶。

晚上,這個朋友要回家了。

 

他問這個好朋友。

你現在的感受為何。

 

這個好朋友說。

這些房間中黃金的光芒太閃耀了,我感覺好像喝了酒,我感覺有點暈眩。

 

這句成語被用來形容一個人過著奢侈又浮華的生活。

 

親愛的朋友,你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。

你如何設計你的房間呢?你覺得甚麼才是真正的奢侈生活呢?

我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
