    [1] "Leaving the Pavilion Banquet with Resting Fingers" Wang Shifu. Yuan Song

    My mother,

    Rub the trembling double-headed stamens,

    Fragrant and fragrant concentric ribbons cut,

    Long-handed Lianli Qiongzhi setback.

    Yu Meipan's weeping confession made Wan Zhedu seem to have taken a booster and increased his confidence infinitely:

    Yes, how could I just stand by and watch someone snatch away such a passionate little junior sister?  I can't be cowardly, I want to fight with reason!

    Don't think that the old lady is my teacher's wife, I dare not reason with you.  At this juncture of life and death, I, Wansheng, will fight with you even if I risk my life.

    Zhe Du slightly nodded towards Mei Pan, indicating that he was about to attack.

    Seeing Zhe Du's changes, Mei Pan has a tacit understanding.  She had an idea, turned around sharply, and intentionally knocked and spilled the wedding-repentant wine in Ruyan's hand.  After expressing "surprise", he pretended to lose his composure, returned to his seat in shame, covered his face and cried.

    Seeing Meipan crying sadly, Ruyan quickly put down the empty cup, hurried over to support Meipan, and cried along with her while persuading her.

    Seeing this, Mrs. Yu was very embarrassed and made herself a little bit hard to get off.  She was angry and anxious, so she had to wipe away her tears.  I thought to myself, I, an old woman, was crying by a group of children, let's see how you end up.

    In the midst of crying, Wan Zhedu calmed down.

    He wiped away tears and stood up.  He rearranged his clothes, bowed his hands to Madam Yu, and said, "Old Madam!" The voice was so loud that it overwhelmed everyone who was crying.

    Ruyan was the first to react, and tugged on Meipan's sleeve.  Meipan immediately stopped crying and stared at Zhe Du to see what he had to say.

    Madam Yu was shocked by Zhe Du's resounding "Old Madam".

    She stopped crying, thinking to herself: Wan Sheng changed his wife to old lady, how should she call him?  Suddenly remembered Ruyan's previous address, and said, "Mr. Wan."

    [2] "Leaving the Pavilion Banquet with Resting Fingers" Wang Shifu. Yuan Song

    The white-headed lady is not burdened,

    ? A young woman becomes a dange,

    Take off my brocade piece like a future.

    My mother lost the sweet sentence to him,

    Fame earned me by mistake.

    Wan Zhedu said: "The old lady has heard what the old lady said just now. However, I still want to ask the old lady about some things. I wonder if it is okay?"

    "I don't dare to ask for advice. If you have something to say, Mr. Wan, please tell me." Madam Yu thought, in front of my majestic second-rank wife, I am not afraid that your little Xie Yuan can turn the world upside down!

    "May I ask the old lady, what did the old lady say when the thieves also surrounded Pujiu Temple with Timur soldiers and wanted to rob Miss?"

    In desperation, Mrs. Yu had no choice but to answer: "I once said, whoever can get rid of the thieves, no matter monks or laymen, betroth the little girl to him."

    "Who caught the robber afterwards?"

    Mrs. Yu thought, you are asking this to highlight your merits, but I am not as good as you wish, so she said: "That's Mr. Wang's command and strategizing. Besides, it was his guards who were going to assassinate, but you  Don't go with me."

    After hearing this, Zhe Du felt dissatisfied: Well, it is not so easy for you to erase my credit.  Said, "I believe that Zhan Huwei can also capture the leader of the thief. But, may I ask, what reason does Zhan Wei go to get close to the leader of the thief?"

    Madam Yu had no choice but to say: "That's an excuse to present the 'picture of beauties'."

    "Who drew the 'beauty picture'?"

    "I haven't asked you to argue yet! Why did you draw a portrait of someone else's daughter without permission? Aren't you ruining someone's daughter's innocence!"

    Zhe Du sneered and said, "We'll discuss this matter later. Now we're talking about who painted the portrait."

    Meipan asked Ruyan, "What portrait?"

    Ru Yan whispered: "It's that idiot who missed you day and night, so he secretly drew a portrait of you, hung it in the room, and looked at it every day. That painting is so beautiful!"

    Mei Panmei quickly lowered her head.

    Madam Yu, after a moment of silence, said: "Yes, it was drawn by Mister."

    Zhe Du wondered, why did he call me "Sir" again?  Then he asked, "This sir, is it me?"

    Madam Yu nodded slightly.

    "Hmph, it turns out that the old lady also knew that it was painted by Wansheng? She also knew that it was only by this painting that she was able to get close to the thief? In other words, no matter who becomes the 'assassin', Wansheng has a share of the credit."

    Meipan asked again: "Assassin, what assassin?"

    WillowYanyan just wanted to explain to Meipan.  But Zhe Du then said: "Assassin is taking his own life to take the life of a dog thief. At the beginning, Mr. Wang also said that this was a 'beheading' with no return. When he learned that I was not married yet  , Mr. Wang felt deeply guilty, so he told me Wansheng, if I can come back alive, he will definitely come forward to guarantee that Miss Yu will marry me"

    Ruyan covered her mouth and smiled, thinking: "Zhedu, you can really talk nonsense. Didn't I tell you to make the old lady promise to marry you in advance? But it's better to say it this way.  It’s fine for adults to drag you in!”

    Zhe Du went on to express his feelings: "What Mr. Wang said is still in my ears; your old lady's promise is still there yesterday."

    Mrs. Yu said: "Mr.'s contribution to repelling the thief and the kindness of my family will be engraved in my heart."

    Zhe Du said: "Since you haven't forgotten your promise, and you haven't forgotten a little contribution of your late life, why do you go back on your word today and break your word?"

    "It's not that the old man has no faith in his words, it's because the youngest daughter's marriage was promised by the master himself, and it is inconvenient to change it."

    "Didn't your old lady personally promise the marriage in front of Master Wang and Elder Ming?"

    "It's what I personally promised."

    "Since it was also promised by the old lady herself, why can you go back on it today?"

    "Sir, you are a sensible person, and there is always a priority in everything. Marriage between China and the outside world comes first, and the promise of marriage in the Buddhist temple comes later, not to mention the fact that the first husband is the master[1]. It is extremely difficult for old people."

    "Since Master Yu is in charge, why don't you report back to Master Yu?"

    "Isn't the master confused? If you ask him anything now, he will always say 'good, good'"

    Notes

    [1] The character of the sky is the first and the husband is the big

    Proverbs, meaning that the husband is the master of the wife.

    ?From the Qing Dynasty. Anonymous "Tanhuang Huatan": "Since ancient times, it has been said that the husband who is in the first place is the best."

    ? Ancient couplets

    In ancient times, there was a big family in a certain county. No one in the family was an official, but doing business also made the family's waist very straight.

    The ancients always looked down on businessmen, which made the father of the family very sad.  In order to make his children no longer inferior to others, he let them study regardless of whether they are male or female.  In the end, the son has both literary talents and business skills.  My daughter is better, she only learned some culture.  But her literary talent is not inferior to those scholars who are trying to gain fame.

    However, after her daughter was able to read and write, she was unwilling to obey the arrangement of the family and married at will. She began to choose her husband.  Afterwards, he even asked his father to hold a meeting for recruiting relatives.

    The reputation of this family is very loud in the local area.  Especially the daughter of this family is a household name in the local area.  This made countless children want to participate in this conference.

    However, this meeting is still very particular, not as simple as they thought.  The first two tests are checked by the daughter's elder brother and the daughter's teacher respectively. Those who pass through their hands will be tested by the daughter in the end.  My daughter took the couplet test.

    The talented scholars came to the family's garden and met the daughter of the family.

    This daughter is very close to the rumors. She is beautiful and has a bookish air.

    However, the daughter didn't exchange too many greetings, so she directly gave her Shanghai couplet.  Her Shanglian is "My husband is in the early days of the sky".

    There is still a certain degree of difficulty in this upper couplet: if the word "heaven" is in the early stage, isn't it a husband?  And this husband is naturally the husband-in-law of this daughter.

    Facing this pair, everyone is thinking, what words can match perfectly?

    When everyone was thinking, a scholar spoke his second line.

    What the scholar said was: "Qizi Qumu is my wife."  Xiucai's words really made this couplet absolute!

    After Xiucai's export, everyone has no way to match the pair again, because it is difficult for you to find another word that is opposite to husband.  The others had no choice but to admit defeat and quit, but this poor showman succeeded in winning the bride.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
