Source Legend
Teenagers are poor
When Sun Piyang was a child, his family was poor, but when he was a teenager, Sun Piyang people were never poor. He was determined to study hard and serve his country in the future. In order to eliminate the interference of meditation reading, Sun Piyang secretly moved into the aunt's temple in the north of the street. This aunt's nunnery is in disrepair and shabby. It doesn't shelter from the rain in summer and the cold in winter. The walls are covered with cobwebs and the incense table is full of dust. It has been a long time since people lived there. Sun Piyang cleaned up a little, and studied hard here for several years.
hidden turning point
time flies. Sun Piyang studied hard in the nunnery, but she was still unmarried. There is a woman near Liuqu Town, who is over twenty and has not yet been married because of her ugly appearance. Seeing that all the girls of the same age as ugly girls are married, parents can't worry. Although this woman is ugly, she is smart, virtuous, hardworking and generous, which is not comparable to ordinary women. She often smiles at the cynicism and sarcasm of the world and never takes it to heart. Her parents were impatient and urged her to consider her lifelong events many times. The ugly girl just said unhurriedly, "A good bird chooses a forest to live in, and marriage is a great relationship in life. How can it be done hastily?" When some people next door heard this, they all secretly laughed at her overreaching: "What a lazy toad who wants to eat swan meat, he doesn't pee and take photos himself." The ugly woman was not angry at all, but just smiled and passed.
One day, the ugly girl went to Liuqu Town for a fair. I happened to pass by the nunnery, and suddenly I heard the sound of reading in the nunnery. The ugly woman thought to herself, "The ancients said," A wise man comes from a humble family. This man studied so hard that he would succeed in the future, and he couldn't help feeling a little admiration. Interrogate pedestrians, just know is Sun Piyang reading inside.
The ugly girl went home to tell her parents and asked someone to act as a matchmaker. However, Sun Piyang was as poor as a church mouse, and even his own life was difficult to maintain. Sun Piyang, who had no money for marriage, repeatedly shook his head at the matchmaker and said, "Please stop making fun of mom. I am a poor scholar, who will marry me? "As he spoke, he still buried himself in his book. The matchmaker quickly distinguished and said, "Really, the girl told me herself, unless you don't marry, you don't want a penny for the bride price. "Sun Piyang looked at the serious look of the matchmaker, which was somewhat funny in his heart. He asked," Do you think this will work? "The matchmaker said quickly," That's all right. "Sun Piyang said," Just say yes, and I'll give you someone! "Say that finish and buried himself in reading his book.
Sun Piyang didn't listen to the matchmaker's words at all. He just played a joke with the matchmaker to avoid entanglement. After the matchmaker left, Sun Piyang soon forgot all about it. One day, a sedan chair was brought in front of my aunt's nunnery. Sun Piyang was studying quietly in the nunnery, when suddenly he heard the noise of Zona outside the door, and people were buzzing. He thought, This nunnery has not been visited for a long time, so who is making noise outside the door? I hurried out of the station to see, but I happened to meet the matchmaker. When the matchmaker saw that it was Sun Piyang, she grabbed it and screamed loudly, "Here comes the uncle. "Sun Piyang dazed, also don't know what is going on. When the girl heard that she got off the sedan chair, people crowded them into the aunt's nunnery, worshipped the heavens and the earth, and sent them to Sun Piyang's dormitory. Then they excused themselves.
It turns out that the matchmaker took Sun Piyang's promise at face value and hurried back to tell the ugly girl the news. The ugly girl was so happy that she couldn't sleep day and night. She was afraid of big sleep and demanded to get married immediately. The parents tried to persuade her, but the ugly girl didn't listen at all, so she had to let her go. The ugly woman is ugly but bright-eyed. She thought carefully: Sun Piyang is absorbed in reading and determined to become famous. She has no interest in marriage, and marrying herself is just a joke. If we had informed her earlier, it would have been a disaster. Why don't you give him a fake play and make a surprise attack, and he can't help but deny it.
The bridal chamber is full of flowers and candles, and the nunnery is deserted. Sun Piyang is like a dream, but the ugly girl is holding a fire in her arms, anxiously waiting for Sun Piyang to uncover her veil. Sun Piyang deeply regretted that the joke came true, and it was difficult to ride a tiger. He lingered in the bridal chamber until late at night, only to reluctantly uncover the red veil of the bride. At first glance, I was surprised. The bride had a big yellow tooth, a pockmarked face, bald sores on her head, and she was black and old. Such an ugly woman is really rare. I feel that I have repeatedly complained and regretted it. But this is the case, so I have to accept my fate.
After the marriage, Sun Piyang still wrote poems and wrote poems, studying hard every night, and his determination continued unabated. Ugly women spin and weave, sew and mend, and work hard day and night. Give Sun Piyang a good tea and meal every day, and accompany Sun Piyang to study until the fifth watch every night. The young couple also cultivated land in the courtyard to grow vegetables, flowers and grass. The arrival of the ugly girl brings some warmth and joy to Sun Piyang's poor and lonely life. The young couple read women's knitting, respected each other as guests, and cared for each other. Although their lives were poor, they also felt extremely happy. Sun Piyang felt a surge of joy again, so he changed his aunt's nunnery to "farming and reading" with a pen.
In order to make Sun Piyang study with peace of mind, the ugly girl worked day and night and never complained. Seeing her husband's perseverance, studying hard day and night, his body became much thinner. The ugly girl was very worried, afraid that he would cook bad health, so she tried her best to make the food delicious and sweet so that her husband could eat more. Ugly girl also made maltose from barley, and sesame sugar from millet and sesame seeds, and made Sun Piyang a supper early. This kind of sesame is crisp, sweet, nutritious and easy to digest. Sun Piyang likes it very much. Ugly girls make it for him every day.
Eventually, Sun Piyang became a great official, became a Taitai Bao of the Ming Dynasty, an official minister, and often asked his wife to make sesame candy for him. This sesame candy is now Liuqu Qiong pot candy.
