1.
It was in the year of Zhenyuan of the Tang Dynasty. I was on my way to the capital to take the examination, when I was stopped by an old man in a marketplace, who insisted on telling me my fortune. The diviner said that I had three lives of sinful love, the debt of the past life, this life is not paid, the next life will be avenged. My trip here is exactly a robbery, it is related to my present life and future life, must be careful for the top. I laughed it off. I have never thought of the divination, nonsense, I have never thought of it.
I am Cui Sheng, a native of Boling. When I was a child, I often dreamed that I was a pink butterfly, resting in a peach tree fell for no reason, but fortunately a petal floated into the air to support me, and thus saved. When I woke up, I often sighed and asked my parents, who told me that I should study hard and get a good job, and that I should not fantasize for no reason. The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and the second time I saw it was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley.
The world is like a tidal wave, floating uncertainty. The first time I saw this, I was able to get the ball rolling. I have no face to go back to the city to find a manor to live, continue to study, just hope that next year will be on the list.
2.
I don't realize that it has come to the Qingming, it is the spring breeze in March, peach and willow green, butterflies and bees flying season. I was a little tired of reading all morning, so I wanted to go out for a walk. The breath of spring intoxicated me, seem to forget the work, I threw myself into the gifts of nature, completely forget the road near and far. When I feel dry mouth, far from the city. They want to find a countryside farmhouse to rest, ask for some water to drink, so that before sunset to rush back to the city. This is already a remote field, the farmhouse is extremely scattered. After searching for half a day, I saw not far from the depression, a peach blossom cover, vaguely revealing a corner of the thatched cottage, then accelerated footsteps to go.
It is a small farmhouse, surrounded by peach trees, peach blossom burning. I gently knocked on the door, but no one opened the door. Half a day, the door finally opened, I saw a young girl standing in the door. Seeing me seems to be slightly shy, scarlet red like Xia, and the surrounding peach blossoms reflect. I smiled, explaining the purpose, the girl will guide me into the seat. I was in a trance, but there was a feeling of familiarity.
3.
I sat on the stone bench under the tree, looking at the girl pouring tea for me, as if in a dream. Have I ever dreamed such a dream? But this young girl in front of me, Chu Chu, but so real. I do not dare to think wildly, took the girl's tea, but stared in fascination. The young girl more and more shy, lowering the curtains, more attractive. Could it be that this is what I am destined to rob? I am willing to be robbed of this, even though I have suffered for three lives.
I'm Cui Gu, a native of Boling, dare to ask the girl's name?
The young girl only smiled faintly, looking at me, heartwarming. The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and the second time I saw it was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley. It was evening, and the wind rustled the peach trees around us. Then we didn't speak again, but sat quietly, looking at each other, as if we had made a promise in a previous life. The peach blossoms in front of the door fell, and the faint fragrance wafted out, gently sprinkled around us.
Seeing that the sun was already in the west, I had to say goodbye. I gently placed my cup on the stone table, and with a slight sideways thank you, I walked towards the door. Jiangniang escorted me to the door and leaned on the wood doorway, silent. I turned around, I have seen the infinite longing in her eyes, wanting to speak and then stop.
After the exam, I will come back. I think. I saw Jiangniang gently nodded to me, everything has no need to say more, I and Jiangniang soul. I then left, the peach blossom of the mountain, has been reflected in my heart.
4.
Back in the city, I studied hard all day long. I was thinking about Jiangniang but I didn't dare to think much about it, and I was so distracted that I wasted my time studying, and I only hoped that I would be able to achieve success today next year. Unconsciously, half of the year has passed, I took the examination. Finally not to disappoint the painstaking people, I won the gold list. On that day, I was very happy, drinking wine and enjoying myself, and the city rejoiced with me. I saw my own future, seems to be a piece of beautiful future.
Late at night I sometimes think of Jiangniang. But it's only in a hurry, and there's a more important future ahead of me. The next year's examination is not far away, I should be more diligent, for the parents at home, but also for myself.
5.
When I realized that I had accomplished everything, one year passed by, and I finally went to look for Jiangniang.
It was still clear, and the peach blossoms were fragrant. The door is open, sitting in the yard under the peach tree. The colorful petals are on me, but I still don't see anyone returning. Could it be that Jiangniang has abandoned me?
The peach blossoms on the mountain are not answered.
The peach blossoms on the wall are so red;
I don't know where they are going,
but the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze.
6.
I finally went to the south of the city again.
It's a good thing that I'm not a big fan of the way the world works, because I'm a big fan of the way the world works.
Before I reached the halfway point, I heard the sound of crying. I don't understand. The old man told me that he was Jiangniang's father, and that Jiangniang had been missing me day and night since last year, waiting for me day after day, but I was late to come to see her. She was so depressed that she fell ill and passed away many days ago.
I was struck by lightning.
It was like a thunderbolt to me. I met her in passing, but the woman who was obsessed with her was so y in love, and I was so negative about her! I was so sick that I fell down and went back.
In my sleep, it was as if Jiangniang came to me, complaining that I had lost my heart and saying goodbye to me. I also dreamed that I turned into a pink butterfly and was saved by a peach blossom. The words of the old diviner seemed to be an incantation, making me intoxicated and unable to wake up.
It is destined that I will never marry.
Please accept it, thank you
7. Translation of ChineseCui Shu (崔枢)
A man named Cui Shu went to Bianliang to take the examination for a scholar, and lived with a merchant in the south for half a year, and the two became good friends. Later, when the merchant became seriously ill, he said to Cui Shu, "I am grateful to you for taking care of me these days and not treating me as an outsider. It seems that my illness cannot be cured, according to the custom of our hometown, people need to be buried after death, I hope you can help me with this favor." Cui Shu answered to his request. The merchant added, "I have a precious pearl, worth ten thousand guan, and can walk through fire and water with it; it is indeed an extremely precious pearl, and I would like to offer it to you." Cui Shu accepted the pearl with curiosity. Afterwards, Cui Shu thought, think it's not right: do a scholar, need to have the government **** to give, how can you hide the treasure? After the death of the merchant, Cui Shu in the burial of his treasure beads together into the coffin, buried in the grave.
A year later, Cui Shu went to Bozhou to make a living, and heard that the wife of the southern merchant had traveled a long way from the south to look for her late husband, and to track down the whereabouts of the pearl. The merchant's wife reported Cui Shu to the government, saying that the treasure pearl must have been obtained by Cui Xucai. The government sent men to arrest Cui Shuji. Cui Shu said, "If the tomb had not been robbed, the treasure pearl must still be in the coffin." So the government sent people to dig up the tomb and open the coffin, and the treasure pearl was still in the coffin. Wang Yan, the marshal of Pei, thought that Cui Shu's valuable qualities were really extraordinary, and wanted to keep him as a staff member, but he refused to do so. In the next year, Cui Shu won the entrance examination, and later became the chief examiner, enjoying the reputation of honesty and incorruptibility.
