Chapter 19 Love of the Lovesick Bird

Chacha took a taxi and came to the flower and bird market in this city. Chacha used to go to the flower and bird market with Zhuang's father when she was young, but now it has been more than ten years and the changes have changed a lot, so Chacha is also a little curious.

After getting off the car, Chacha came to the flower and bird market. This flower and bird market has really changed a lot. Although the previous flower and bird market was not very messy, it was not very clean, but the current flower and bird market is really clean. The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. It gives people a feeling of being away from the world and being close to nature.

Chacha walked all the way and looked at it, I really found it very strange, those beautiful flowers and plants could not even name them, all kinds of them were as numerous as stars, and there were all kinds of animals, so beautiful that Chacha was amazed again and again. Before Chacha found the orchid she wanted, she already had a pair of beautiful red-billed lovesickness birds in her hand.

Chacha had heard the story of the red-billed lovesick bird from her grandpa before. Grandpa loved animals very much when he was alive. He often told little Chacha the stories of small animals. The lovesick bird is the animal that Chacha remembers most clearly. I remember that when I heard my grandfather tell the legend of the lovesick bird, I cried for a long time, which scared my grandfather to death, and my grandmother was even angry with him.

Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a Han family village. There was an old man in the village. The couple lived for nearly 20 years without a man and a half woman. The man burned incense and prayed all day long. Finally, at the age of 40, he had a daughter named "Tweety". ... When Tweety was 16 years old, she had already become a well-known beautiful girl in eight villages.

With the passage of time, Tweety has read many poems and books, and also understands the love, hatred and sorrow in the books.Suddenly one day, Tweety felt bored, so she called her maids to go outside to relax, not far away, suddenly saw a young man who was reciting a poem, Tweet slowed down and listened carefully.I only heard: "I am alone in the sky, I am alone, weeping at the moon every day, I only know the joy of the palace in the sky, but I don't know the sadness in my heart."

This is a poem of self-pity. When she hears this poem, Tweety thinks of herself.

Tweety responded casually when she heard it: "Among the flowers, there is only one competing for beauty. No one appreciates the beauty of the flowers. Only worrying about sending the bright moon to the moon. I don't know who to tell the truth to?"

When the scholar heard someone's poems to him, he was still a beautiful lady.Hastily said: "A setting sun breaks in the water, half of the river is rustling and half of the river is intoxicated. I only know that my heart is colder than the water, and I know that there are flowers that are even colder."

Cui'er groaned in a low voice: "Although the setting sun is broken and the reflection is clear, she guards her boudoir's door empty and guards her love alone. She only knows that the sky is accompanied by clouds and the moon, and there is no cloudy or sunny above the embroidered building."

After a few poems, the scholar and Tweety had hit it off. The two watched silently, and suddenly felt that the eternal love had happened in an instant.Cui'er blushed and turned around. Seeing that Cui'er was about to leave, the scholar hurriedly asked: "I don't know if I will leave today, and when will I come back again?" He looked back at the scholar.

Since meeting Tweety, the scholar was deeply moved by Tweety's talent and appearance, and never felt at ease again.So he asked the matchmaker to come to the matchmaker. When the outsider heard that the scholar had no official position or money, he dismissed the matchmaker hastily.

On this day, the scholar came to the place where he met Tweety again, and the scene made the scholar feel mixed.At this moment, seeing a lot of people looking at something outside Tweety's house, the scholar hurried forward.It turned out that there was a lack of night watchmen in the house, and he was very happy to see this notice.

The scholar hastily bought a short coat and jacket, and then visited him. The staff had never seen the scholar before, and agreed to him when he arrived cleanly.

Besides, Tweety's face has become thinner and thinner since she met the scholar, and the suffering of lovesickness is beyond words, so sometimes she has to use poems to express her feelings.

One day, after the scholar finished his chores, he saw that his wife and his wife had gone far away, so he secretly climbed up to the Embroidery Tower and whispered outside the window: "Looking forward to meeting each other, meeting is enviable. You don't live alone on the Embroidery Tower. We can meet each other." When Cui Er heard this, she hurriedly opened the window, saw the scholar Lang who was thinking day and night, and recited with tears: "I miss you and hope you don't see you, and my sister weeps with sorrow and tears. Seeing each other again, it seems like a dream, an illusion, and a faint."

From then on, Tweety and the scholar met secretly.Tweety plays the piano, and the scholar recites poems.The two are sincere and affectionate.

After some time, Tweety's 17th birthday came.Yuan Wai came to Xiulou and told Tweety that a wedding was about to be held for her.Cui'er was shocked and said: "Father, I don't want to get married, I just want to be with my parents." The member outside laughed.Said: "The prime minister has already sent someone to be a matchmaker, and I will hold a wedding for you after a while. Forced to do nothing, Cui'er had no choice but to kneel in front of her father and tell her father about herself and the scholar. After hearing this, the member was furious, They sent someone to drive the scholar out with sticks. Since then, Tweety had no news of the scholar. Soon, Tweety became seriously ill and there was no cure. In order to save Tweety, Yuanwai found the scholar again. When the scholar saw that Tweety was as skinny as a stick, he jumped on him, and the two of them wept. It was strange to say that after a few days, Tweety was as innocent and lively as before. Presented a poisonous plan. The staff called Cui'er and the scholar, and said with a smile: "My son, husband, don't be unknown and profitless. Today, the old man took out a hundred taels of silver and ordered the scholar to go to the exam. If you can win the gold list, I will marry you when I come back. .If you don't have a title on the gold list, I will let you get married after you come back and inherit my family business.As soon as Tweety heard that the words were reasonable, she agreed wholeheartedly.

The scholar and Cui'er returned to Xiulou, and the scholar told Cui'er, "It's dangerous on the way to the exam. You have to take care of yourself. If I die of an emergency on the way, I will turn into a bird or a lovesick bird and return to you. By my side, tweeting every day, then you will..." Tweety hurriedly covered the scholar's mouth with her hands, and said with tears in her eyes, "If you go, I won't live long, so I will go with you. If you become Bird, I also turn into a bird, we can’t live together, we have to walk together after death.” Before the words fell, the two of them could only cry until the sky was dark.

At daybreak, Yuanwai took the silver and came to the Xiulou, after the scholar was ready.Facing Tweety, he said softly, "Remember my words." Tweety nodded.Reluctantly said: "Go early and return early!"

Besides, the scholar rode his horse to a remote place outside the village, only to see four sturdy men blocking his way.The scholar thought he had encountered a bandit, so he said: "Everyone, please let me go. Here are the bags for you." The four big men laughed and said, "Scholar, don't daydream, you are still waiting to get married." Isn't it?" Saying that, he blindfolded the scholar and tied him up, put him on the saddle, and walked a long way.When the horse stopped and it was already dark, the big man said: "We don't want to kill people, and we are afraid that you will go back, so you should be wronged." I no longer know.

Tweety was very happy for a few days, because she had hope, she believed that her scholar would be named on the gold list, would come to pick her up on a tall horse, and make herself his bride, she firmly believed that there would be such a day.
