Chapter 53 Chapter 1 A good man does not have a good wife, Lai Han marries a beautiful woman

A happy marriage and love may not necessarily lead to a happy life, but an unsatisfactory marriage and love will definitely make one's life unsatisfactory.In Wuhan University, a pile of cow dung; Pan Jinlian, a flower, extremely disharmonious.It's very rare for her, Pan Jinlian, to keep her own place. Last time we talked about Wu Song fighting the tiger, he was valued by the magistrate of Yanggu County, and he was promoted to be the head of the infantry.Wu Song felt that life was like a dream. At first he thought he had beaten someone to death and fled, but later he heard that the person he beat was not dead and was brought back to life.Since he didn't kill anyone, he didn't have to run away. He was about to go home to visit his brother, but he killed the tiger on the way.

This period of Wu Song's life turned so fast that he was a little confused.While he was in a daze, another thing happened that made him even more confused: he actually ran into the elder brother he was looking for on the street in Yanggu County! The brothers have been separated for more than a year, why is the brother not in his hometown of Qinghe County, but came to Yanggu County? It turns out that Wu Da and Wu Song were born of the same mother.However, the difference between the two brothers is too great: Wu Song is eight feet long, has a handsome appearance, and has a thousand catties of strength all over his body.And this Wu Dalang sells cooking cakes for a living. He is less than five feet tall, has a ferocious face, and a ridiculous mind.Seeing that he was short and short, the people of Qinghe County gave him a nickname, "Three-inch Dinggu Bark".

A major feature of "Water Margin" is that all kinds of characters often have a nickname.And I think Wu Dalang's nickname is the most magical.why?Because, this nickname makes you puzzled, but you feel extremely similar.According to Cheng Muheng's "Water Margin Notes", Ding refers to an adult man over 18 years old; a three-inch Ding is extremely short.The bark of the valley tree, it is said that its color is spotty, hempy and rough.It can be seen that this is a compound nickname, while the others are all single nicknames. This is the special treatment given to Wu Dalang by the author of "Water Margin".

It is not a crime to be ugly and short, but it is also a common psychological phenomenon that such an ugly and short person gets a beautiful wife, which will make many people psychologically unbalanced. Ever since Wu Da married that woman, several treacherous young men from Qinghe County came to his house to harass him.This group of people shouted in front of the door from time to time: "What a piece of mutton! It fell into the dog's mouth." Wu Da was a cowardly man, but he did a very irresponsible thing all of a sudden: How could he marry such a beautiful wife according to his duty?Now, facing the harassment of these hooligans, he felt uneasy. He couldn't live in Qinghe County, so he moved to Yanggu County.Rent a house on Zishi Street in the county seat.Still in his old business, he continued to sell his cooking cakes on the street every day.

I was doing business in front of the county that day, and I ran into Wu Song unexpectedly. When the brothers met, they were very affectionate, so Wu University stopped doing business and took Wu Song home. The relationship between Wu Song and his sister-in-law kicked off. However, what we don't understand is that it's only been a year since the Wu Song brothers parted, why did Wu University marry a beautiful wife? It turned out that there was a big family in Qinghe County, and there was a maid named Pan Jinlian, who was in her twenties and had a certain color.Because the big family wanted to pester him, the maid refused to obey, and went to tell the mistress.This big family is probably also henpecked, and after being punished by his wife, he bears a grudge, and would rather pay some dowry instead of Wuhan University's penny, and marry him for nothing.This is the big family's punishment for Pan Jinlian.

This is of course the luck of Wuhan University, but it is Pan Jinlian's bad luck.Which woman is willing to marry someone like Wuhan University without a foundation of love? Pan Jinlian saw that Wuda was short and short, with a wretched character and no flair, so she was naturally extremely unbalanced, and it was inevitable for her to have sex with her. This big family is not only lustful, but also vicious.He used this method to retaliate against Pan Jinlian who refused to submit to him. Pan Jinlian was later killed. It can be said that he was the culprit.From this point of view, Wuhan University is also bad luck: such an unsuitable marriage, enjoying excessive blessings, is such a huge drag on his life?

He was later poisoned to death, and the culprit was also this big family.
