    [1] "Xiaoliangzhou. Xihuachang" Meng Chengshun. Yuan Song

    One day, Wenxiu was reading a book in the study when she suddenly heard footsteps approaching from far outside the courtyard. Through the green screen window, she saw the old courtyard prince Wang Zhong walking quickly. She thought her grandfather was calling for something, so she got up to greet her.

    As soon as Wang Zhong entered the door, he said: "Master Biao, Master Biao, I have an urgent letter from Shandong aunt." As he spoke, he handed over a letter.

    Wenxiu took it apart and took it apart to watch. It turned out that Xucheng County in Dongping, Jizhou in Jining, and Jiyin County in Caozhou were hit by major floods. The people were so hungry that all the granaries in the family were robbed, and his father fell ill in a hurry.  The letter said, let him go home as soon as possible.

    At this time, I heard the voice of my grandfather outside: "What's the letter from your family?" During the conversation, my grandfather, grandmother and family members filed in.

    Wenxiu hurriedly handed over the letter, but she couldn't say a word, and she couldn't help crying.

    ?It turned out that after Wang Zhongxian, the Duke of the old courtyard, sent a letter to Wenxiu, he rushed to inform the master.

    Sun Zhizhi said: "Don't worry, Houqing. After you go back, take good care of your father. When your father is safe, you should come back quickly. I am old and my family has many affairs. I don't have anyone around me who can help me with the cooking  .¡±

    The old lady went on to say: "Xiu'er will be back home in half a year after Xiu'er leaves. If there are passers-by coming from the direction of the capital, just send them a few words so that we won't miss you. After your father is well, don't forget to come to grandma's house again.  "

    Sun Zhizhi said again: "Your uncle [1] has retired and is going to settle down in Sichuan. He is on the boat at noon today. If you hurry up and ride a fast horse, you might be able to catch up."

    Wenxiu asked: "Grandpa won't go to the pier to see my uncle off?"

    Sun Zhizhi sighed, shook his head and said nothing, and left with his family.

    At this time, Wenxiu was alone in the room, neither sitting nor standing, and was in a state of confusion for a moment.  I miss my father in my heart, and wish I could grow wings and fly home; but I also miss Wenjiao, and I am reluctant to leave her.  After thinking about it, how could I meet Wen Jiao and ask her for a promise, a token or something.

    In desperation, Wenxiu wrote a song "Xiaoliangzhou" and put it on the desk, hoping that Wenjiao could read it after she left.

    The word is written like this:

    "Xihua is always worried about flowers, and goes to the west building every day.

    Let alone throw away now,

    Guanshan is thousands of miles away, and the eyes are broken for three autumns.

    Ð» Turn around.

    Diligently pay Dongyuan Liu, so that Guan Zhirou.

    ? I am only afraid that the green will become cloudy again,

    Green plums are like beans, and they are lucky to lose to Liangzhou.

    Hate Yoyo.  "

    [2] "Green Leaves and Shade" by Meng Chengshun. Yuan Opera

    Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a "squeak" from the door, and a tearful person came in, it was Wen Jiao.

    I saw her full of autumn water, pink tears, and sorrowful, just like the rose in the rain.  Wenxiu hurriedly stood up to greet her.

    Wen Jiao asked sadly: "My little sister heard a letter from my aunt's house and asked my third brother to go back. I don't know why it's urgent?"

    Wenxiu explained in detail how her father returned home from a serious illness, and said: "Brother Yu first came, and he was wrongly loved by his younger sister. I am very grateful. But the sky didn't follow people's wishes, and it shocked you and me."

    Wenjiao sobbed and said: "The covenant of holding the stove should be kept in mind with each other. Although we don't have the same joy today, we should be of the same heart as brother."

    "In the past ten days, although I haven't been given the body to serve the dressing table, my heart is always on my sister. I only hope that I can stay with her day and night. Don't go now. I don't know when the Taoyuan Fragrance Path will be opened.  Under the moon at Yaotai, when will we meet again?" Wen Xiu said, unable to hold back her weeping.

    Wenjiao said: "My sister feels the same way after parting. My sister has a poem, and I will give it to my brother as a farewell." Then she chanted with tears:

    "The shade of green leaves is thick and the flowers are thinning,

    Voice Du Yu to persuade spring to return;

    It's like traveling thousands of miles away,

    Don't say that Wenjun wet his clothes with tears.  "

    Wenxiu covered her sleeves and wiped her tears and said, "Thank you sister for your kindness, Brother Yu would like to share a poem with you." After thinking for a moment, she chanted:

    "Dense leaves, heavy curtains, dancing butterflies,

    Xiangru is only afraid that the swallow will return first;

    Wen Jun stands firm for me,

    Don't throw away the golden thread clothes lightly.  "

    After Wenxiu chanted, she frowned tightly and hesitated to speak, and then said in a low voice, "Brother Yu, I have one more thing to say, I wonder if I should say it?"

    Wen Jiao said, "But it's okay to talk about it."

    "When Xiaosheng and his younger sister were about to get married, they were so happy that they hadn't been engaged. They said that God was not unintentional. I heard my sister's words 'green leaves are thick', which makes people suspicious. I'm afraid that when we meet again, red flowers  Gone with the wind, the green leaves are full of shade, don't marry Dongfeng."

    Wen Jiao just saw the green manure in the court.Thin and thin, because of the scenery, there is no intention of marrying Dongfeng, and he feels very wronged in his heart, so he groaned for a long time and said: "Little sister has such a heart, doesn't the third brother know? The three years of rest are full of green leaves and shades."  branch, even after ten years, the solitary flower remains the same."

    She suddenly caught a glimpse of "Xiaoliangzhou" on the desk, rolled her eyes at Wenxiu, and said angrily, "Be careful~!" Then she added a piece of "Bu Suanzi" under the words and gave it to Wenxiu:

    "There is a time for you to return when you go, and you have to look back after a thousand miles.

    The green leaves are overcast for three years in Xiudao, and the flowers are still there for five years.

    Don't complain about the lateness of the sound, and stick to it twice.

    There are three dice and nineteen nests, each of which must be taught.  "

    Wenxiu smiled reassuringly when she saw Wenjiao wrote the lyrics.

    Wenjiao took out a bag of ropa from her sleeve, untied it and said, "This is a strand of blue silk from my little sister. I will give it to my third brother as a memory. I hope that my brother will think about others when he sees things, and don't forget my little sister."  Put it in these two poems, wrap it up and fold it up, then wrap it up in ropa, and put it in Wenxiu's arms

    Notes

    [1] Uncle

    It is my aunt's husband, referred to as "uncle".

    (1) Uncle, has three different meanings:

    1 Wife's brother-in-law.  noun attribute.  It is a kind of appellation between relatives.

    ? refers to the wife's brother-in-law/brother-in-law.  That is, my aunt's husband.  Because there are two types of sister-in-law: elder sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law.  Therefore, the husband of the sister-in-law is also divided into a big uncle and a young uncle.

    2 Mother's brother-in-law.  noun attribute.  It is a kind of appellation between relatives.

    ? refers to the mother's brother-in-law/brother-in-law.  That is, my aunt's husband.  Because aunts are divided into aunts and aunts.  Therefore, the aunt's husband is also divided into big uncle and young uncle.

    Aunt's husband, that is, uncle (uncle/uncle).

    Auntie's husband, that is, uncle (little uncle/little uncle).

    3 The two men who had sex with a prostitute called each other uncle.

    (2) Why can uncle be called "father"?  And why can't uncle be called that?

    In ancient China, it was the mainstream thought that men were superior to women, and it was emphasized that "the father guides the son, and the husband guides the wife".  In a family, the father is the most important child, and the father's surname is followed. The father's relatives are relatively closer than the mother's relatives, so the uncle's status will be higher than that of the uncle, and the title is slightly different.  , one for the father and one for the husband.

    Calling "uncle" and "uncle" in this way is also a manifestation of the difference between inside and outside.

    In feudal society, the father's brothers and sisters are the true relatives:

    For example, the father's parents are called "grandparents"; the father's brothers are called "second father" and "third father";  Uncle and father have the same father.

    And the mother's parents are called "grandpa and grandma".  The mother's sister is called "auntie", and the husband of the auntie is called "uncle", but it is just the husband of the auntie.

    The brothers and sisters of our parents, that is, the spouses of uncles, aunts, and aunts, are not related to us by blood.  Therefore, there will also be "parents and sons" and "children and relatives" that are similar in terms of titles.  Therefore, the terms uncle and uncle in Chinese have various appellations.

    Generally speaking, father is used to respectfully refer to male relatives of the father's generation, while the usage of the word husband is broader, and can be used for the same generation, brother-in-law, brother-in-law.  But with the progress of society, the old idea that men are superior to women in rural areas no longer exists, and there is no prejudice against uncles and uncles. Showing uncles as uncles is also a kind of cultural progress.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
