Idiom origin:
Ye Song Shaoweng wrote in his poem "It's not worth going to the garden": "Spring can't close the garden, and an apricot comes out of the wall."
The origin of idioms:
The earliest source may be the story book "A Ghost in the Western Hills" in the Song Dynasty. Among them, women are described as "like twisting a green plum to see a handsome boy, like riding an apricot out of the wall." This sentence is about the love story of Pei and Li Qianjin regardless of ethics. According to this story, Bai Pu of the Yuan Dynasty also wrote the famous zaju "Up the Wall at once".
After the Yuan Dynasty, the usage of "having an affair with almonds" became more and more obvious. For example, "like almonds coming out of the wall, you can't break them, and you can't teach people to be ashamed of flowers because of the wind and rain."
In modern times, the usage of "affair" has been fixed. Liu Yunruo of Yuanyang Butterfly School also wrote a famous book "The Story of an Apricot Out of the Wall".
Because of the special position of "Red Apricot" and "Wall Head" in ancient literature, "Red Apricot Out of the Wall" is usually only an implicit allegation, which implies that there is a reason for this derailment, "Chai Fei can't bloom for a long time" and "Spring scenery can't close the garden".
