As we all know, the phrase "it will rain, the mother will marry, let him go" is well known to everyone as the Wen'er Khan Trident incident in the 1970s, but do you know how this sentence came from?
There was a student named Zhu Yaozong who had lost his father at an early age, and his mother was worried that if he took a step further and remarried with his young son, he would inevitably be unpopular with his stepfather, so he insisted on not remarrying, taking on all the determination of life to raise him to adulthood and rise to prominence in the next day.
Zhu Yaozong is like someone else's child, smart and clever, and has been very fond of reading since childhood. The bitter mother hoped that the children she raised would one day jump through the dragon gate, so she cut down on food and clothing, and used the money saved to invite a teacher named Zhang Wenju to come to her home to teach Zhu Yaozong. Teacher Zhang Wenju saw that the child was a smart and studious good seedling, so he trained him more carefully, studied hard all day long, and finally passed the Xiucai examination when Zhu Yaozong was fifteen years old, and entered Beijing at the age of eighteen to catch the examination, and the gold list titled the first place in the high school.
When he finally went to the temple to take the examination, the emperor saw that he was dignified, learned five cars, and was only eight buckets high, so he was overjoyed, and married his daughter to Zhu Yaozong, and he also truly realized the leaping dragon gate of the fish, and became the emperor's dragon horse and the emperor's dragon son-in-law. Zhu Yaozong also remembered his mother, who had raised him to adulthood in his hometown with painstaking efforts, and told the emperor truthfully about his past with his mother since he was a child, and his mother could not bear his suffering and did not remarry and raise him alone, as well as the fact that although the family was poor, his mother had to ask the teacher to cultivate himself. The emperor was deeply moved after hearing this, and felt that he should set a national model for his mother's behavior, and immediately issued an edict to set up a "chastity archway" for Zhu Yaozong's mother, who had never remarried.
Ten years of cold window to get what he wanted, plus when the dynasty was a donkey, Zhu Yaozong, the head of the new branch, was energetic and returned to his hometown to go home to the province. When the mother saw that her son had won the title and was recruited as a donkey, she thought of her various hardships and could not help but feel the old tears, but when Zhu Yaozong told her that the emperor had set up a "chastity arch" for her to show her example, she couldn't help but be worried. It turned out that after the wife of Zhu Yaozong's teacher Zhang Wenju died of illness, he had never continued the string, and gradually developed feelings with Zhu Yaozong's mother during the time when the Zhu family was teaching. Although Zhang Wenju left the Zhu family after Zhu Yaozong entered Beijing to take the exam, Zhu Yaozong's mother thought of telling his son when he returned home one day and officially married Zhang Wenju.
When Zhu Yaozong heard that his mother was determined to remarry his teacher, he thought that the emperor had already set up a chastity archway for his mother, just like the five thunderbolts, he knew that this was an unforgivable crime of deceiving the king, and he hurriedly knelt down in front of his mother and said with tears in his eyes: "Son, filial piety, I have already told the current emperor about your hard work and hard work and perseverance in maintaining the family, if you insist on marrying, it is a crime of deceiving the king, and you will bring calamity to the family." Zhu Yaozong's mother also knew that this situation should be punished according to the law, but she thought that she was a woman who worked hard for her son for the family, and now she was so bitter and willing, and finally wanted to live her own life, but it was such a cross-birth ritual. The mother had no choice but to say, "Let's resign ourselves to fate," she washed a dress and dried it in the courtyard, saying to Zhu Yaozong, if the skirt dries before dark, I will not remarry; if the skirt does not dry, this is Providence, you will do as I wish." Zhu Yaozong saw that the sky was clear, and the thin skirt was definitely dry by dark. Did you expect that when it was late in the night, it rained heavily, and the skirts hanging in the courtyard had already been wet, and the mother pointed to the heavy rain outside the house and said to Zhu Yaozong: "This is the true providence, the sky is going to rain, the mother is going to marry, providence cannot be violated!" Zhu Yaozong knew that his mother's heart had been decided, and neither side could be violated.
After Zhu Yaozong rushed back to the capital with a heavy heart, he immediately told the emperor about his mother and his teacher Zhang Wenju and the situation that the rainstorm wet the agreed skirt in the sky, and asked the emperor to commit the crime. The emperor was also troubled in his heart, and he could not let his newly married daughter be widowed, and he could not insult the majesty of his holy will, so he had to say in a sad manner: "The sky is going to rain, the mother is going to marry, this is a match made in heaven, let him go." As a result, the phrase "it will rain in the sky, and the mother will marry" has been passed down as an irreversible meaning.
