On one occasion, when Tomb-Sweeping Day had a holiday, they went to visit Jinghu Lake. Zhu Yingtai hinted at the scenery to Liang Shanbo many times, but Liang Shanbo didn't understand it at all, and even made fun of Zhu Yingtai for comparing himself to a woman. Finally, Zhu Yingtai had to tell Liang Shanbo directly that Liang Shanbo had an epiphany.
But all this was known by Ma Wencai who was watching, and Ma Wencai also knew that Zhu Yingtai turned out to be a woman.
Later, his family wrote to urge Zhu Yingtai to go home. Before he left, Zhu Yingtai left a letter telling Liang Shanbo that "28, 37 and 46 will be fixed", which means that Liang Shanbo will go to Zhu Fu to propose marriage ten days later, but Liang Shanbo thought it was three days together, so he went to propose marriage a month later.
When Liang Shanbo came to Jiazhu in high spirits, he realized that Ma Wencai had spoken first and got a dowry. Liang Shanbo had to leave with a broken heart, and Zhu Yingtai sent him all the way.
After Liang Shanbo returned to China, Acacia was seriously ill. He wrote to Zhu Yingtai asking for some prescriptions that he couldn't find or get, expressing his despair. At the same time, he hoped that Zhu Yingtai would visit him. Zhu Yingtai wrote back to tell Liang Shanbo that he had no chance in his life and only hoped that they could be buried in Nanshan after their death.
Later, she died of illness and promised Ma's marriage for a pretence, but asked the wedding procession to pass through Nanshan and let her get off the sedan chair.
When Zhu Yingtai got off the sedan chair to sweep the grave, it was stormy for a while and the evil wind was piercing. Liang Shanbo's tomb is actually cracked. When Zhu Yingtai saw it, he jumped in desperately and the grave was closed again. Soon, a pair of butterflies flew out of the grave.

5. "Juniper onion"
In A.D. 1 142, Yue Fei, a national hero, was killed in Dali Temple in Jian 'an on charges of "trumped-up", and Hang Cheng people hated Qin Gui and his wife.
Legend has it that one day, Wang Er, the shopkeeper selling fried food in Hangzhou, compared two human-shaped dough pieces to a couple, pressed them together, pressed them with a stick, put them in a frying pan and fried them, saying "Fried" in his mouth. This is the origin of fried dough sticks.
Later, on this basis, it developed into a Hangzhou-style snack-juniper onion. When cooking, make spring rolls (or pancakes) with white powder, then wrap them with fried dough sticks and scallions, flatten them repeatedly in the pot until they are golden brown, and then pour hot sauce or sweet sauce.
Wang Er, who works in a frying shop, sometimes fried too much and couldn't sell it at once. But the fried tree (fried dough sticks) is soft and tough after it is cold, and no one buys it.
He hated Qin Gui and his wife's heart, but he was still filled with indignation. He roasted the cold fried chicken in a hot pot, wrapped the cooked fried chicken and onion in a spring cake mixed with sweet noodle sauce, and then pressed it with an iron plate until the skin was golden, and the fried chicken creaked. Wang Erfang felt wronged.
After baking, Wang Er picked it up and ate it. He found the onion delicious and fragrant, so he named it "Onion juniper", which has been passed down to this day. After learning the name of such a snack, for a period of time, citizens rushed to buy it and couldn't wait to swallow this "fried stew" in one gulp.
This method was soon followed by other places. "Fried stewed children" has also spread all over the country and become a famous breakfast food.

The story of the white snake
During the Qingming Festival, two girls came to the West Lake Broken Bridge. How do people rise from the water? It turns out that they are two snake spirits who cultivate human beings. Because of the envy of the colorful life on earth, one was renamed White Snake and the other Xiaoqing.
At the moment, it's raining cats and dogs. Bai Niangzi and Xiaoqing were caught in the rain, and there was nowhere to hide. Suddenly, all they felt was an umbrella overhead. When they turned around, they saw a gentle young scholar holding an umbrella to shelter them from the wind and rain. The scholar said, "My name is Xu Xian, and I live near this broken bridge." The relationship between White Snake and Xu Xian is getting better and better. Soon, they got married and opened a "Baohetang" pharmacy. What a wonderful life!
The happy life of Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi annoyed a person, the Fahai monk in Jinshan Temple. Because people's illness was cured by the white snake, fewer people went to Jinshan Temple to burn incense and ask for bodhisattva, and the incense was not prosperous. On this day, the monk Fahai came to the "Baohetang". The white snake was treating people and could not help being jealous. Take a closer look, alas! It turns out that this white lady is not a mortal, but a white snake!
Fahai put Xu Xian in the temple in order to break up their husband and wife.
White Snake finally found that Xu Xian was "left" in Jinshan Temple by Fahai monks. White Snake hurried to Jinshan Temple with Xiaoqing and begged Fahai to put it back in Xu Xian. Mrs. White Snake fought with Fahai, but White Snake was pregnant, so he couldn't fight Fahai. Later, the white snake was put in a golden bowl by deception and placed under the Leifeng Tower, which separated the loving couple from the white snake alive.
Xiaoqing escaped from Jinshan Temple and practiced in the mountains for decades. Finally, she defeated Fahai, forced him into the belly of a crab and rescued the white snake. Since then, she has lived happily with Xu Xian and their children, and never separated.

The Legend of West Lake in Hangzhou
Speaking of the origin of the West Lake, there are many beautiful myths, legends and stories circulating among the people. Legend has it that a long time ago, Yulong and Jinfeng in the sky found a piece of white jade on Xiandao near the Milky Way. They pondered together for many years, and white jade became a bright pearl. Wherever this orb goes, trees are evergreen and flowers are in full bloom. However, when the orb was discovered by the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother sent heavenly soldiers to take it away. Yulong and Jinfeng hurried to get the orb, but the Queen Mother refused, so there was a fight. As soon as the Queen Mother's hand was released, the pearl fell to the ground and became a sparkling West Lake. Jade Dragon and Jinfeng also came to earth, becoming Jade Dragon Mountain (Jade Emperor Mountain) and Phoenix Mountain, guarding the West Lake forever.
In fact, West Lake is a lagoon. According to historical records, as far back as the Qin Dynasty, West Lake was still a bay connected with Qiantang River. Wu Shan and Baoshi Mountain, towering in the north and south of the West Lake, were two headlands that surrounded the cove at that time. Later, due to the influence of tides, sediment accumulated at two headlands and gradually became sandbars. Since then, the sandbar has expanded in three directions: east, south and north. Finally, Wu Shan and the sandbars of Baoshi Mountain are connected to form an alluvial plain, which separates the bay from Qiantang River, and the original bay becomes an inner lake, thus the West Lake was born.
