How it's used

Originating from classical Chinese literature, this idiom is frequently used in modern Cantonese to describe a situation where a compromise or resolution leaves all parties feeling content. It is often employed when concluding negotiations or settling disputes to emphasize a harmonious outcome. Unlike some formal idioms that feel stiff, this one is widely accepted in both professional and casual settings.
