The story begins with Pan Jinlian. Pan Jinlian was born handsome and beautiful, but she was born a maid of a large family, which is very sad. The rich man coveted beauty, but the golden lotus was also proud of its beauty, so he refused to be small, just as the rich man's wife was a jealous woman. This leads to such a miracle as choosing an ugly contest. The rich man's wife is jealous and poisonous, but she retaliates against Jinlian's desire to marry Jinlian to the ugliest person. After this choice, Wu Dalang won the championship of ugliness, which resulted in a marriage tragedy in which a woman is beautiful but not talented. As a result, Pan Jinlian's extramarital affair, Wu Dalang's murder in love, Wu Song's sister-in-law and later Liangshan Juyi have been in social turmoil for decades.
Wu Dalang and Wu Song, though born of the same mother, are very different in appearance. Wu Song is eight feet long and handsome. Wu Dalang, on the other hand, was less than five feet, ugly and ridiculous. People in Qinghe county saw that he was short and short, so they gave him a nickname, called three-inch Dinggu bark. Supposedly, with Wu Dalang's appearance and family background, it is not easy to marry an ordinary woman, let alone a beautiful woman as beautiful as flowers and pure as jade. However, the world is full of wonders, and it happened that Wu Dalang met a good thing from the sky. No, a beautiful woman fell from the sky and married him with money.
Wu Dalang was able to marry Pan Jinlian, which was totally a drop in the bucket. Because Pan Jinlian was born in a humble background, she was sold to a large family as a servant girl at the age of 20. Because of her good looks, she was valued by a large family, and she wanted to forcibly occupy her. Pan Jinlian refused to go and tell a large family's wife, which caused Zhang Dahu to hold a grudge. After repeated unsuccessful attempts, she was determined to find an opportunity and lost some bride price and forced Pan Jinlian to marry the seller.
Wu Dalang was able to marry Pan Jinlian, who was beautiful as a flower. By mistake, he took advantage of the big house in Qinghe County. Besides, there is no other reason.
