Content]: Walking into the night of Chang'an, today in the ancient capital, only the smell of the vast yellow sand remains, I don't see the bright moon that Li Bai had gazed at deeply, and I don't hear the sound of the change of years.

So, I gently closed my eyes, and the cold air penetrated my heart and lungs, and I faintly heard that in the sound of pounding clothes under the moon, there was a subtle sigh, like a new sorrow, withering in the middle of the night.

Chang'an is a month, and thousands of households pound clothes.

The autumn wind blows endlessly, and it is always a jade relationship.

Literal meaning: inside and outside Chang'an (city), the moon is like water. All the women of the family are pounding clothes, and only the sound of pounding clothes can be heard for a while.

Pounding clothes: In fact, it means to beat clothes with a mallet during the "laundry" washing process. The Chinese-English Dictionary compiled by the Department of English at Beijing Foreign University translates "pounding clothes" as beating clothes (in washing), which can be described as accurate.

The reason why you want to pound clothes: Literally, "pounding clothes" is to be able to change into clean clothes as soon as possible, but in fact, it is to express the longing of the woman for the recruitment and the resentment of the battle. Reasons why you should pound your clothes at night:

Anything else going on during the day? "Pounding clothes" at night shows the hardships of the life of the woman, and also shows the strong feelings of the woman.

Chang'an is a month, and the sound of thousands of households pounding clothes: The autumn moon is bright and the city of Chang'an is bright, and the sound of pounding clothes comes from every household.

The autumn wind blows inexhaustibly, always Yuguan feelings: The sound of the anvil can not be blown even if the autumn wind blows, and the sound is always related to the relatives of Yuguan.

When can the enemy be pacified, and the husband can end the long journey.

The moonlight illuminated the entire Chang'an City, and every household was pounding clothes.

To put it simply, the meaning of pounding clothes refers to the ancient women who repeatedly beat their clothes with sticks, because the cloth in ancient times was relatively hard, and repeated beating could make the cloth soft.
