Tip: The greatest pain in life is the misunderstanding of friends. Between confidants, a little misunderstanding may lead to a strange injustice. For example, the real Wu Dalang, wen and Wu Shuangquan, generous and benevolent, generous and loyal. Unbeknownst to him, for hundreds of years after his death, he became a representative of the "green hat", a symbol of "dwarf" and "nest waste".
The descendants of Wu Dalang's hometown are grateful to Wu Dalang
For hundreds of years, Wu Dalang in Ming and Qing novels was the representative of the "green hat". People put him on film and television dramas and became the talk of tea and dinner. For example, the folk riddle says: "Wu DaLang set up a banquet - high friends are full of seats". In real life, Wu Dalang is completely a symbol of "short man" and "nest waste". However, the people of his hometown regarded him as a morally upright predecessor.
Wujiana Village, the hometown of Wu Dalang, is located in Gexianzhuang Town, Qinghe County, Hebei Province. It is close to the county seat, and the 308 National Highway passes through the village, cutting the village into two settlements. There are 7 villager groups in the village, more than 2,700 people in 620 households, and the per capita cultivated land area is only more than 1 mu. People's economic resources mainly rely on labor exports, cotton planting, cashmere combing, processing of powder skins, and opening online stores to sell cashmere sweaters. Visiting the Wu Dalang Ancestral Hall has now become a new tourism industry in the village.
The village's bean milling processing has a history of more than 600 years. Word of mouth says that this handicraft technique began with Wu Dalang. The people with the surname Wu in the village are all descendants and clans of Wu Dalang. In their view, Wu Dalang is a symbol of loyalty, sincerity, and kindness to others. During his lifetime, Wu Dalang taught his descendants to fend for themselves and introduced and improved the process of bean milling. Today, the handmade powder skin in the village is still a local must. If people around want to eat reliable conscience powder skin, they will come to the village to buy it. People around them drove around and went to the house on the edge of Wu Dalang's tomb to see the powder skin making process.
Coffin opening inspection: Wu Dalang Pan Jinlian is a loving couple
The Wu Dalang in the hearts of the descendants is completely different from the Wu Dalang in the Ming and Qing novels.
In the summer of 1992, Wu Dalang's descendants and archaeologists excavated Wu Dalang's tomb. At that time, the forest guard monument in front of Wu Dalang's tomb was still well preserved, and the tomb was covered with pines and cypresses. The descendants of the martial family could not bear the insults of their ancestors in Ming and Qing novels and contemporary film and television dramas, and reported to the cultural relics department to open the coffin for inspection to confirm what kind of person their ancestors really were. On the day of the opening of the coffin, many journalists were attracted. Guo Zengshun, a reporter from Hebei Daily, saw that the ancient tomb was oval in shape and was built of green bricks. When the coffin was opened, several archaeologists were surprised - they calculated that Wu Dalang should be between 1 meter 8 and 1 meter 9 tall before he was born, and he was a big man. This image is far from Wu Dalang in literary works.
Wu Dalang's tomb is a joint burial tomb, and the coffin of his wife Pan Jinlian is parked below. A case that has been unsolved for hundreds of years has been made public in the world. Wu Dalang lost his father at an early age, his family was poor, and he was raised by his mother. Since he was a child, he advocated literature and martial arts, and when he was young, he was talented and talented, and he was proud of the spring breeze, and later he passed the examination for the jinshi, and the official residence was in Yanggu County, Shandong. Wu Dalang is a charismatic person, and although he was young, despite the cold years, he won the joy of thousands of dollars from the Pan family in the neighboring village. When the young Wu Dalang went to deliver firewood to the Pan Mansion, Pan Jinlian, the daughter of the Pan family, took a look at Wu Dalang. Pan Jinlian finally ignored the obstruction of her family and resolutely married Wu Dalang. The descendants of the martial family said that the old grandmother Pan Jinlian was both beautiful and virtuous when she was young, and many large families came to the door to propose relatives, but she refused to do so, only to see the ordinary Wu Dalang.
The real Pan Jinlian is naturally not the evil female number one in novels and film and television dramas. After marriage, Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian admired each other, gave birth to four children, spent a lifetime in mutual admiration, and were buried together after death. Many years later, Pan Jinlian's maternal relatives could not bear the slander from the outside world, so they had to change the name of Pan Jiazhuang to Golden Village, which continues to this day. Jinjinzhuang is not far from the village of Wujiana, and the two villages are separated by only three miles.
A friend's misunderstanding led to a strange injustice
After the opening of the coffin in 1992, Wu Dalang's descendants finally raised their heads and straightened their chests. They knew that the old ancestor Wu Dalang was not a dwarf, not a nest of waste, not a seller of cooking cakes, and not a representative of the "green hat", but a generation of honest officials who were full of energy and vigor. Wu Dalang, whose real name was Wu Zhi (武植), was a former commander of Yanggu County, Shandong. When Wu Dalang was in office, he was honest and just, built water conservancy, and cared for the people's livelihood, and the people sent umbrellas to the people, leaving a good political voice after leaving office.
Why is wu dalang and Pan Jinlian so badly known? There is a rumor in the ancestors of the Wu family that when Wu Dalang was serving as the commander of Yanggu County in Shandong Province, a fellow family member was caught in a fire and came to his aid. This fellow window once effectively received Wu Dalang when he was young. When he went to the same window, it was very unfortunate that Wu Dalang's official duties were cumbersome and the reception was not thorough, so he was dissatisfied.
The same window did not know that before he came, Wu Dalang had sent someone to send disaster relief funds to his home. Frustrated friends, do not know the truth, secretly scold Wu Dalang for being ungrateful. A few days later, the same window did not quit, all the way, all the way to arrange the story, ugly slander Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian couple, write rumors on the wall along the way, for passers-by to laugh. When the same window returned home, he realized that Wu Dalang was kind and kind, a person who missed his old feelings very much, and regretted what he had done. At this point, regret is no longer helpful. Over time, ugly remarks were written into the novel, and the artistic image and the real people became more and more distant.
Wu Dalang's descendants raised funds to repair the cemetery and carefully protected it. In their hearts, Wu Dalang was a great man who was clean and honest and could fusangzi. After the reconstruction, the Wu Dalang Ancestral Hall is quaint, and you can see that there are pairs of horse stones in front of the door. There is an exhibition hall in the front yard and a cemetery in the back yard. Wu Dalang was speechless, Pan Jinlian was speechless, and only the grass that danced with the wind told us that the greatest pain in life is the misunderstanding of friends. (Text/Fan Forward)
