Couplets, commonly known as pairs, are treasures of traditional culture and are deeply loved by the people.
Throughout the ages, there have been many humorous couplet stories in folklore.
I am a real swimmer, a reader who loves couplets. Remember to follow me.
Today I share with you an interesting couplet story: the old man who sells tea swings three levels, it is difficult to catch up with Xiucai, and Xiucai sighs to himself: I know that there are masters in the folk!
It is said that in ancient times, there was a talent who went to the provincial capital to take the exam. On this day, Xiu cai came to a three-way junction and did not know which direction to go.
There is a gazebo right in front of it, and in the gazebo there is an old man selling tea who is setting up a stall.
Xiucai ran to the vicinity of the old man and shouted loudly: "Hey, old man, which road should you take to the provincial capital?" ”
When the old man who sold tea heard this, he was not happy in his heart, and thought to himself: "Who is this, who does not understand politeness at all?" Since you want to ask for directions, how can you call me an old man, it sounds strange and uncomfortable. ”
The old man looked up again, and it happened that it was a twenty-something Xiu Cailang, and his heart was even more unhappy: "The reader should respect the old and love the young, this reader does not have the appearance of a reader at all, it is too undeserved." ”
Therefore, the old man who sells tea pretends not to hear and completely ignores Xiucai.
Xiucai shouted a word, did not see the old man reply, his heart was anxious, "pedaling" ran to the old man, shouted loudly: "I said old man, I am so loud talking, can't you hear?" ”
The old man smiled slightly: "The old man wants to burn tea, but also sell tea, who has the kung fu to listen to gossip." ”
Xiucai was stunned, and his heart also turned a corner, and he quickly took out ten pieces of money and said to the old man, "I will buy a bowl of tea." Ten pennies is enough, right? ”
The old man was angry and did not want to do business with this impolite person, so he shook his hand: "The old man is still making tea, and he can't sell it to you." ”
Xiucai didn't really want to buy tea, and handed the ten yuan to the old man: "It's okay, you tell me which way to go to the provincial city, and the ten yuan money will belong to you." ”
The old man still shook his hand: "Ask for directions without money." The old man sees that you are a person who rushes to the exam, presumably full of knowledge, right? This is good, the old man gives you three uplinks, if you are all right, the old man will give you directions. Hey, if you can't get out of the next link, go home early and read more books for a few more years. ”
Xiu Cai is still quite talented, otherwise he would not be arrogant and arrogant, and he would not be rude to the old man who sells tea.
As an ordinary person, he must have respectfully asked for the road: "Old man, the little student is polite, please ask which road to take to the provincial city?" ”
However, Xiucai has a very high self-esteem, and even other readers look down on him on weekdays, not to mention an old man selling tea on the side of the road.
This is also the reason why Xiucai shouted "old man" as soon as he opened his mouth.
Back to the point, Xiu Cai heard that the old man was actually going to pair up with him, and almost laughed and broke his belly.
A savage old man on the side of the road actually dared to pair up with me, I really don't know the sky is thick, it is really slippery in the world!
"Dealing with you old man, is it not a piece of cake, hand to hand?"
Xiucai was arrogant and did not put the old man in his eyes at all, naturally he agreed and said to the old man: "Then you will come up with a question." ”
The old man has been setting up a tea stall in this pavilion for more than sixty years, and he does not know how many readers he has seen in rushing to take the exam, and he does not know how many good words and sentences he has heard.
To say that the right pair, the old man is really an expert. When the old man saw Xiucai's contemptuous expression, his heart was even more angry, so the first level was directly a big problem: "Mountain stone rock, an ancient tree on the rock, an ancient wood withered, this wood is firewood." ”
Xiucai was originally triumphant, and when he heard the old man's uplink, he was a little dumbfounded: "This old man is not simple!" This is a word breaking union, the mountain and the stone form the rock, the ancient and the wood form the dry, and this and the wood form the firewood, powerful! ”
Xiucai frowned and began to think, suddenly remembering the newly married lady in the family, and suddenly had inspiration, replied: "Long scarf tent, a woman in the account, the woman is good, the girl is really wonderful." ”
The old man was also a little surprised, he originally thought that this show was the golden jade and its external defeat, and he didn't expect that the show talent was still a bit of a real level.
So the old man nodded, did not comment, and made another uplink: "This is the second level." The blunt axe splits the wood, the three branches and the four branches, and the wood cannot be opened. ”
Xiucai really wanted to complain: "Grandpa's, you are an old man who sells tea, and you are not an old man who chops firewood, how come two consecutive shanglian are related to firewood?" Where did you hear this pair? ”
However, Xiucai has real skills, and after a little thought, he came out of the next link: "Quick knife cut lotus, seven holes and eight tricks, and the lotus is broken and connected." ”
When the old man heard this lower link, he felt that this show talent was really level, and he couldn't help but nod his head and praise: "Not bad, this lower link." ”
Xiucai also became modest this time: "Thank you very much for the praise of the old man." "From the old man to the old gentleman, this attitude has changed, really called a fast."
The old man naturally can't hide his clumsiness, otherwise the three levels are broken for Xiu, where should he put this old face?
So the old man made a difficult uplink: "The chicken is hungry for food, and the boy is picking up stones to chase the hungry chicken." ”
This is a harmonic strange link, using many harmonic words, but it is about the lives of ordinary people, which is really a very exquisite uplink.
Xiucai was a little flustered, he wanted to come and go, or couldn't think of a suitable downlink.
This time has passed, Xiucai still can't get out of the next link, this is to know that there are high people in the folk, you can't look at people low!
Xiucai had to apologize: "Old sir, it is the boy who is rude, you can hold the boat in the belly of the prime minister, please forgive the boy's carelessness and rudeness." ”
The old man forgave Xiucai's rudeness, pointed out the right way for Xiucai, and continued to set up a stall to sell tea. This story has also been passed down in the folk ever since.
As for the third level of the old man, he is waiting for talented netizens to come to the next link!
