Chapter 31: The Dream of Tibetan Bananas (Part II)

It's on the play.

The old lady ordered a whole "Dream of Tibetan Bananas".

There is an allusion to this play: in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a woodcutter who chopped firewood for a living, and there was a sunrise out to chop wood, and he saw a frightened deer on the road, and the woodcutter chased and killed the deer, and was afraid that people would see it and divide it, so he hid the deer in a ditch and covered it with banana leaves. He was overjoyed to get a meat eater. When he came back from farming, he wanted to retrieve the deer, but suddenly forgot where to hide it, so he thought that he had a dream of getting a deer. It was also mentioned along the way. It just so happened that a man heard it, and went to look for it as the woodcutter said, and found it in the trench.

When the man came home, he told his wife, "The woodcutter who went to the mountains to cut wood dreamed of a deer, but he did not remember where. ”

The lady said, "If the woodcutter dreams of a deer, how can he not know the place?" If you really get a deer, I'm afraid it's also a dream, right? ”

The man said, "Since I have a deer, why should I care if it is someone else's dream or my dream?" ”

Who knows, when the woodcutter came home, he was worried about the deer in his heart, and he was unwilling. And it came to pass, in the night, that he dreamed of the place where the deer was hidden, and that he dreamed of the man who took the deer for him. The next day, according to the dream of the previous night, he went to look for the man, but the man did not admit it, and the two quarreled endlessly, so they found the official husband and asked him to judge.

The official said: "When you really got the deer, you said it was a dream, you really dreamed of a deer, you thought it was real." Indeed, he took thy deer and fought with him. Your lady insists that it is a dream, and no one has ever gotten a deer. Now that there are deer, then you will divide it equally! ”

The woodcutter thought it was very funny and said, "How can you give the deer that I dreamed of to people?" ”

The woodcutter was dissatisfied with the ruling and petitioned the Minister of State.

When the prime minister heard this, he said, "I can't tell if it's a dream or an illusion." If you want to justify dreams, only the Yellow Emperor Kongqiu has this ability. It's a pity that the Yellow Emperor Kongqiu died, who still has this ability? According to my opinion, the ruling of the official husband is feasible! ”

This play is also called "banana leaves covering the deer".

Everyone gathered around the old lady to watch the stage in the distance, and while appreciating, the old lady also gave an explanation.

The old lady said: "This scene is rarely ordered by ordinary people, because it only has lip service, and it is not exciting if it is not played." In my opinion, it is also very appropriate to use it for homely life. Where can you judge whether the long is true or false? Open one eye and close one eye, the heart will be happy, see the real child, may not be able to live long, look at the back said, the Yellow Emperor Kongqiu is not long-lived, if not, you can live forever and interpret dreams. ”

Zhuang Xuan said to the side: "After all, the woodcutter got it, why can't you remember?" Also said to dream! Most of the people in the countryside are headless and brainless, and they are blessed and unbearable. ”

The fourth girl, Zhuang Yu, couldn't help laughing, Zhuang Qi and the others looked back at her anxiously and asked her what she was laughing at.

Zhuang Yu said: "I used to read Bai Juyi's poems, but I didn't know the story. Now that the old lady explains this, I think of the poems of the Xiangshan monks. ”

Zhuang Ying urged: "What poem does my sister think of?" Let's hear it. ”

The sisters urged again, and Zhuang Yu said: "Don't be frightened, humiliated, humiliated, and happy, and don't be miserable." The Yellow Emperor Kongqiu has nowhere to ask, An Zhi is not in a dream. The deer is suspicious and Zheng Xiang is difficult to distinguish, and the butterfly is known. If it is not a dream now, it can be longer than a dream. ”

After reading, the sisters were silent.

Du Yu Qi muttered: "Doubting dreams and thinking about it is useless. Dreams are like bubbles, flashy like clouds. ”

Zhuang Yu took a deep look at Yu Qi and continued to watch the play.

At this time, a word suddenly came from outside, saying that a few ladies had come, and they were the guests and family members invited by the master. After hearing this, the old lady muttered a few words and asked people to please. Later, a table was set aside at the wife's table to entertain, and each was polite a few times.

After about two or three plays, Justified returned.

Cao and Zhuang Hu followed the old lady to accompany them, and their hearts were always hanging and they had never been at peace. The old lady was talking, but the two of them couldn't listen to a word. When the guest came, and separated from God's hospitality, he calmed down, and never thought that Justhide would come back.

Chaste didn't dare to make a sound, and called the girls a few times to reply, but the girls watched the play as if they were confused and didn't hear it. Fortunately, Zhuang Ying and Zhuang Pu brothers saw it, and the two brothers knew that Justhide was helping to handle the affairs of Accord, so they quietly went out.

to the outside.

Justus sighed and stomped his feet to the two of them, "What are you going to do when you come out?" ”

Zhuang Pu said: "Brother-in-law, aren't you unnamed?" We have come out to hear from you. ”

Juste said: "Then you go and ask your eldest sister and second wife to come out." I have something to say to them. ”

Zhuang Jue said strangely: "Brother-in-law, is it about Mr. and Sister Yu?" Are you really going to get out? ”

Zhuang Pu pushed Zhuang Jue away and said in disgust: "Go, go!" What a stray hairy stinky mouth, what is called being thrown out! Therefore, Zhengse said to Just: "Brother-in-law, you can tell me directly!" I see that you should avoid the old lady, or I will shout out. I'll have to peel off my skin sooner or later, and I'm not afraid of this. ”

Chaste glanced at Zhuang Pu, stretched out his hand to pull the two brothers aside, and then said, "It's all your natural disaster!" Whoever you recruit is not good for the woman who is biased, I tell you, those two are dead. ”

Zhuang Yu exclaimed: "Why don't you just go out?" How did he die? Didn't Sister Yu put dog eyes on that person? ”

Judge said: "Ouch, my ancestor, just put a dog's eye on someone, that mother-in-law cut people with a thousand knives, and dug out the heart of the knife in the head, and replaced it with the dog's heart that was brought out from you!" ”

Zhuang Pu giggled when he heard this.

Seeing this, Zhuang Jue patted Zhuang Pu. Zhuang Pu was relieved and said, "The mother-in-law really knows how to do it." Look at those two people are not good goods. ”

Juste said: "Say! Go, my fathers! Please come out with your wife and sister. That's an important thing. ”

Zhuang Pu didn't move, but pushed Zhuang Yu hard.

Zhuang Yu smacked his tongue and went in, moving step by step, and finally moved behind Zhuang Hu, and it was not easy to call her. Yu Qi saw it behind him, turned over slightly, and whispered in his ear: "What's the matter?" ”

When Xing Zhuanghu heard this, he turned his head to look, took two steps back, and said to the two: "What are you muttering?" ”

Yu Qi walked away with a red face.

Zhuang Yu gently pulled Zhuang Hu's sleeve, and did not speak, only signaled to look outside with his eyes. Zhuang Hu followed his eyes and looked out, and saw Chaste and Zhuang Pu standing outside.

Zhuang Hu hurriedly lifted his skirt and went out, but he didn't call Cao's.

When he went outside, he first poked his finger at the door of Zhuang Pu's head: "Shijing hasn't gone in yet, waiting to enter the oil pot to marinate the brine." Don't try to ask me for money later, I don't recognize you as a brother. ”

Zhuang Pu said timidly: "Sister! Am I wrong? Do you think I do? Isn't this a debt owed to Mr. Guan? Don't talk about me, don't our big brothers and sisters owe others? Now you are going to drive people away, and it will be very ugly to spread the word. ”

Chaste was very helpless and winked at Zhuang Hu.

Zhuang Hu was angry, turned his face to Chaste and said, "If you have something to say, what's wrong with your eyes getting into mouse feces?" ”

Just's mouth was curled, his hands hung down and crossed, and he was silent.

Zhuang Pu spread his hands and said, "Okay, I'll go in!" ”

Zhuang Hu didn't let him go, turned around and asked Chasde to tell Zhuang Pu about the previous inquiry and seeing Ma Pozi.

Just: "Said! ”

Zhuang Pule said: "I also know, isn't it just those two lives?" That's it! Even if there are ten, they should be compensated like this! ”

Zhuang Hu was dumbfounded: "What do you mean?" ”

Chaste said: "Ma Pozi killed two people, and she hanged herself." ”

Zhuang Hu said "ah", his heel softened, and Zhuang Pu hurriedly held on.

Zhuang Pu said: "Why did the mother-in-law die?" ”

At that moment, Cao Shi and Zhuang Jue walked out, and Chasde told the truth again.

Cao Shi seemed relieved, and pointed to Zhuang Pu and Zhuang Yu to go back to sit. When the two left, Cao said with a smile: "That's it, it's over." What about the daughter-in-law? ”

Juste said: "Just a silly girl, just crying." I don't think it's going to work. ”

Cao Shi wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and sighed: "Give them some silver, and tell her daughter a few more words, saying that I will keep her by my side in the future." It's a pity that I didn't make any new clothes for the New Year! ”

After Cao finished speaking, he twisted his waist and went in, his steps light.

For the rest, Zhuang Hu and Just's husband and wife looked at each other.

At the end, Zhuang Hu said uneasily: "There are three lives in one room, even if people don't tell them, the government has to come to check them." It's good that Ma Pozi's family doesn't make trouble, but I'm afraid that the two families will find trouble and they won't be able to excuse it. Sid, you go and keep an eye on it. ”

Juste let out a long sigh, lifted his robe and went again, and before he went far, Zhuang Hu beckoned him back. When Chasde came back, Zhuang Hu waved his hand again and said, "Forget it, you go first!" ”

Jusde departed melancholy, and Zhuang Hu re-entered the attic.

It was about the afternoon when the west was sinking, and the old lady was happy, and everyone saw that she was a little tired, and urged her to rest for a while. The old lady said that it didn't matter, so she talked to everyone in the attic, and sent someone to invite the little aunt and Aunt Nazha of the fence garden to come over.

When the two aunts came over, the old lady was already napping on the couch, and the rest of the ladies and aunts were talking and joking, and the girls were in a bunch, and the masters were in one place.

The two aunts came in to say goodbye, and after receiving the salute, Cao turned his head to shake the old lady awake and reported, "Old lady, the two treasures are here." Greetings to you! ”

The old lady was confused, her eyes didn't open, and she only said: "I said that I was sitting with his eldest brother, and I didn't want to listen to the play with me. ”

When they heard the words, the crowd laughed.

After all, the seventh girl Zhuang Ying was young and unscrupulous, so she leaned on the old lady's shoulder and said, "Grandma, it's my aunt who is here." ”

The old lady listened, opened her eyes with a wink, and turned her head away. Sure enough, the little aunt brought the etiquette on her own, and Aunt Nazha's half-baked school was all at once.

The old lady hurriedly said: "Hold on!" Hooked his eyes to the girls next to him, and squirred at Cao's: "You said that you are really, let them give any gifts." It's never too late for the boy to come back. Hurriedly greeted the two aunts: "Sit down!" ”

Cao Shi looked displeased and replied with a sneer.
