Husband [phonetic notation]: l m: og not ng [husband]: the common name of husband. Appellations such as "wife" and "husband" all contain the desire of "caring for each other and loving each other for a long time". Husband originated in China, and husband and wife often call each other "husband" and "wife". How did this happen? According to legend, this title first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and it has been 1000 years. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a scholar named Mai. After he obtained fame and fortune, he felt that his wife was old and faded, and he had the idea of abandoning her and finding another lover. So, I wrote a pair of couplets and put them on my desk: "When the lotus declines, the fallen leaves belong to the old lotus root." It happened that the couplet was seen by his wife. The wife noticed from the couplets that her husband had the idea of abandoning the old and welcoming the new, so she began to write a couplet: "The ecliptic is ripe, and the rice is now new." Replacing lotus with rice and old lotus with new grain are not only neat and appropriate, but also novel and popular, and the homonym of new grain and bride is interesting. Mai Aixin read his wife's second couplet and was moved by her agile thinking and love, so she gave up the idea of abandoning the old and welcoming the new. When the wife saw her husband change his mind, she did not forget the old feelings, but wrote, "My husband is very fair." Mai Aixin continued to write a couplet: "My wife is a woman." This educational story soon spread and became a story from generation to generation. Since then, the words "husband" and "wife" have appeared in Chinese, and there is also the custom of husband and wife calling each other "husband" and "wife".
