Lun Wenxu's Parted Marriage

Caution

Poem

Should marriage scorn a humble home?

Lun Wenxu's wife chose wealth to roam.

When fame crowned him with high decree,

She leaped to death in misery.

婚姻豈可厭家貧

文叙夫妻兩拆分

一旦首登龍虎榜

戲妻樓墜自亡身

Interpretation

This sign tells of Lun Wenxu, whose wife left him due to poverty. When he later achieved top honors, her regret drove her to suicide. This is an extremely ominous omen. Those who draw this sign must remain content with their lot, avoid greed, and endure hardships patiently—sweetness comes after bitterness, fortune follows misfortune. Acting rashly or unethically invites disaster when least expected, leaving no room for regret.
