As a unique literary form, couplets have a long history in China. It began in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, especially in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and has developed for more than a thousand years today.
The antithetical couplets are developed from the antithesis of Yi poetry, and retain some characteristics of Yi poetry. The ancient people compared the antithesis of poetry, which reflected the relationship between them to some extent. Couplets are called couplets, commonly known as couplets, which are concise, meaningful, neat and harmonious, and are a unique artistic form of Chinese language. It can be said that couplet art is a cultural treasure of the Chinese nation.
The types of couplets can be divided into Spring Festival couplets, wedding couplets, birthday couplets, elegiac couplets, decorative couplets, communication couplets, industry couplets, humorous couplets and miscellaneous couplets.
As far as humorous couplets are concerned, they are humorous, concise and easy to understand. It is very knowledgeable, interesting and artistic. It is usually associated with folk stories to achieve the purpose of educating people.
The story of the folk fun meeting is that people eat a rich meal before and after tea after work, and gain knowledge, lessons and happiness through laughter, so as to keep fit and prolong life.
Recently, I spent a lot of time. After retirement, I have nothing to do. I want to sort out some stories of folk interest groups that I have heard and seen in my life, so as to enlighten future generations. I also feel that I have a shallow culture, lack of knowledge and poor writing ability, and I dare not write. Recently, with the encouragement of the Chairman of the County Federation of Literary and Art Circles, writers and other comrades, my friend Yu, a fan of folk fun, provided some materials, and I made up my mind to collect, sort out and compile them. Because of limited knowledge, there must be mistakes, even mistakes. Please criticize and correct me after reading it. I am very grateful.

The old scholar skillfully writes (corrects) couplets.
Once upon a time, there was an old scholar who was always ready to help others. He often writes couplets such as Spring Festival couplets, Happy Couplets, Shoulian couplets and elegiac couplets to villagers. The villagers never refuse to ask him, and he is full of fun according to your family scenery and reasons.
On one occasion, during the Spring Festival in the village, he was as busy as a bee. On New Year's Eve, there was a poor family with special scenery who didn't even put up couplets. He thought, if you want to post couplets for the New Year, you have to be poor and let the old scholar write them. The old scholar wrote a couplet according to the family situation. The first part: eat a liter, drink a liter, and keep rising. Bottom line: spend one, borrow one, and the debt is endless. The horizontal criticism is that the poor are as poor as a church mouse, and the poor thank them contentedly.
On another occasion, a blind young man in the village was introduced to find a companion who was also blind, but it was suitable and the conditions were the same. He wants to marry a bride one day. So I asked an old scholar to write a wedding couplet. The old scholar wrote a pair of wedding couplets after a little thinking. The first part: it is difficult for lovers to meet. Bottom line: Save lamp oil at night. Horizontal approval is: groping. At first glance, everyone thought it was wonderful.
Another time, a family married their son and asked him to write a wedding couplet. Who knows that just after worshipping heaven and earth, the old man who was over eighty years old died at home, and then red things and white things appeared at the same time. What should I do? The person in charge said, "The red thing goes on as usual, and the white thing is prepared in secret." . So I quickly set up a funeral tent to prepare for the funeral. Obviously, it is not appropriate to hold a wedding at the gate. So the old scholar had a brainwave and wrote another couplet to replace the original wedding couplet. The first couplet is: "weddings and funerals, weddings and funerals." The bottom line is: "Don't cry, don't laugh, don't laugh." The horizontal batch is: "joys and sorrows." Everyone applauded when they saw it.
Another time, when a family wanted to sell bean sprouts, they asked an old scholar to write couplets when they opened. The first part is: "long, long, long, long." The bottom line is also: "long, long, long." This couplet is homonym. How to read has its own beauty. After opening it, people were curious and came to see the couplets. People come and go, and business is very prosperous. In addition, he has good integrity, strict technology and quality first, so his business is getting bigger and bigger, and he is well known. It turns out that Miaolian is also wealth!

Miaolian misses youth.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Nijiazhuang village. There is a Ni Yuanwai in the village who gave birth to a daughter. She is very clever and is famous for her piano, chess and calligraphy. She is twenty-eight, with a pretty face. In a blink of an eye, it's time to talk about marriage. Naturally, many people propose marriage. Some princes and grandchildren stepped on the threshold one after another, but the girls picked and picked, and none of them were moved. Finally, the girl proposed to recruit relatives, choose a talented person as a lifelong companion, and then make a couplet: "Miao girl Ni Jia girl." This couplet is a combination of "Ni" and the girl is a combination of "Miao". It's really interesting and difficult, so no one can match it all the time. Seeing the girl getting older and older, at the age of seventy, someone actually took the couplet: "Young Sun Jia is strong and strong." The strong cow is combined with the word "stubborn", and the boy is combined with the word "sun". The couplet is correct and neat, but when asked, it is a teenager of 16 years old. Because of the age gap, he never got what he wanted. In the end, I missed my life because of my cleverness, leaving a lifelong regret.

Talk about work as soon as you open your mouth
During the Spring Festival, four veteran cadres from Zhang Wang, Li Zhao, got together, drinking and chatting, talking about the past and the present. They are very happy. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, I was slightly drunk. Some people suggested that there should be a drinking order to enliven the atmosphere, and everyone said yes; It is also suggested that we recite poems to each other. If we are good, we will be rewarded with one drink, if we are not good, we will be fined with three drinks. Everyone agreed to set up couplets on the grounds of drunkenness.
Lao Zhang took the lead in making a speech (he used to work in the May Fourth Office) and recited a couplet on the topic of "five stresses and four beauties": "Beauty in behavior, language, environment and soul, and four beauties in the whole country." Lao Wang took over (worked in the Commission for Discipline Inspection before retirement) and made a couplet: "Gambling, bribery, eating and drinking, corruption, social moths blow four winds." That's right. Very neat and realistic. Lao Zhang and Lao Wang each drank a glass of entertainment wine. Lao Li and Lao Zhao did not show weakness. Both of them are retired teachers and teach in a school. At that time, the teaching conditions were not good and the classroom was tense. All the first, second, third and fourth grades are taught in Confucius Temple, and all the four grades are oriented in four directions: east, west, north and south. Lao Li said that he would write a couplet on the topic of teaching and class: "Gold, silver, copper and iron are tempered in one furnace." Lao Zhao immediately made a couplet: "A, B, C and D are divided into four parts." (it means that even in the same classroom, you can be divided into grades one, two, three and four. ) That is neat and practical. Lao Li and Lao Zhao are also interested in a glass of wine.
After drinking, four veteran cadres look at me and I look at you. Qi said, "It's really eloquent!" Come here with a smile.

Qin Gui skillfully faced the examiner.
Legend has it that Qin Gui was a giant turtle when he was reincarnated. Yue Fei was injured by a Dapeng bird before being reborn, so it was an eye after being reborn. But he grew up smart and studious. He has become a minor celebrity in the local area. When he reached the age of graduation, he went to Beijing to take the exam. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the examination room, the examiner saw that he was a cyclops and looked down upon him. So he frowned and said, "look at your five senses, how can you participate in the topic selection?" Well, I'll make the first half. If you are right, you can participate in the topic selection. " Qin Gui nodded in agreement. The examiner casually recited the first couplet: "Cyclops doesn't board the dragon and tiger list." Only unhurriedly replied: "I've been doing the same thing as Kun for half a month." The answer was so neat that the examiner had to let him into the examination room to take the exam. Sure enough, he topped the list and won the first prize. Later, the emperor favored him and became prime minister. The tree is big and straight, and the official is big and kills himself. With the promotion of the official position, his ambition is getting bigger and bigger, and he has become a traitor who murders loyalty and is reviled by the world. This is another story.

Wang Anshi married three times and became a quick husband.
Wang Anshi, a famous prime minister, was diligent and eager to learn since he was a child. Coupled with his intelligence, he was amazed at poetry. When I was a freshman, I went to Beijing to take part in the science election and went to a township. It was getting late, so I found an inn to stay. There are many guests in the inn. Chatting in the evening, someone said, "There is a talented woman here, 28 years old, who is very beautiful and talented in piano, chess, painting and calligraphy. Now you are choosing a husband. If you guess right, choose the winner. " I haven't made a choice for days. Hearing this, Wang Anshi went to his aunt's house the next day to catch the exam, and then explained his purpose. So, the girl sang a couplet: "Zhang Longgong, riding a strange horse, enchanting, four ghosts standing on the side, Asian heart becomes evil." This couplet is a "Zhang", a strange horse is a "ride", an Asian heart is an "evil", and the demon on the left is next to the word "ghost". ) This couplet is wonderful. Wang Anshi was really embarrassed when he heard this, thinking: The girl is really extraordinary. He thought it over carefully and recited the next couplet: "Dummies, peach trees, harps, and eight kings." (This couplet is "fake", Zhaomu is "peach", and the hand is "take". There are eight words "Wang" on the four words. After listening, the girl showed a satisfied smile, looked at the lotus in the pool and sang the second couplet: "Lotus comes out of the water, and calligraphy points to astronomy." Wang Anshi casually replied: "Lotus root in the mud, jade tube leads to geography." This couplet is also very neat. The girl looked up and saw the bird on the branch casually chanting the third couplet: "Magpies crow and chickens crow, and the branches talk about good and bad." Wang Anshi also looked up at the swallow, and the wild goose happened to fly by, so he sang the next couplet: "Let's go and meet and talk about the spring and autumn." After the triplets got married, the girl and her parents were very satisfied, so they invited their families to hold a banquet. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the woman proposed to marry another day. Wang Anshi said, "I will finish my research here and then tell my parents to get married." After the discussion, I went to Beijing to take the exam. As a result, I won three lists and was appointed as the top scholar by the emperor. I will come back to get married soon. It's really a double happiness. So far, it is a much-told story that Wang Anshi married her husband. .

Once upon a time, in a village, there was a local rich man. His family had a thousand hectares of fertile land, horses and mules in droves. He was rich and powerful, and he had employees. He bullied the people, bullied the people, and the people didn't dare to make any noise. That year, he was 54 years old and took a fancy to a farmer's daughter, 16 years old. With deep pockets, he forced the farmer's daughter to be a concubine. On the wedding day, someone sent a pair of couplets, which read: "Twenty-eight pieces of plain clothes are wrapped in red." Bottom line: "Crows rule sparrows in June and September." The local rich people fainted after reading it.

Gao Zecheng refused to get married.
In the Song Dynasty, there was a young man named Gao Ming who was away on business all the year round. On this day, he arrived at the border of Qin Zhou, and it was getting late, so he found an inn to rest. This inn is run by a middle-aged couple. He has a daughter, 19 years old, who is a little feminine. When I met a young man, he was very elegant and looked like a scholar, so I admired him. The girl's parents have only one daughter, and they are willing to invite their son-in-law parents to ask about the situation of the young Wang Zecheng. They want to propose their marriage in person, but they are embarrassed to speak, so they invite the girl to come forward and make a couplet: "Rain can keep guests without a door." The word "rain" in the couplet refers to a woman, which means that a girl is not married and can stay at home as a son-in-law. Wang Zecheng understood the meaning and didn't want to stay, but he loved face, so he answered the bottom line: "There is a bridge between the rainbow and the people." Did not fulfill the girl's kindness.

The ugly son of Song Dynasty recruited relatives.
In the Ming Dynasty, there was a village called Songjiazhuang. A couple has no children and no daughter. When they were in their fifties, their wife became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter. For the sake of adults, name it ugly. Husband and wife are old and happy, and love is like an apple in their eyes. The ugly son of the Song Dynasty, a famous ugly man, is not ugly. In a blink of an eye, he is over twenty-eight, smart and promising. He is not only outstanding in appearance, but also a talented local woman. The old couple are nearly seventy years old and decided to recruit a son-in-law for their old age. One day, a young man passed by, saw this girl, fell in love with her, and looked at her unconsciously. Girls are not ashamed. Seeing that the teenager has fine eyes and similar age, he stepped forward and made a casual couplet: "The green square scarf and the blue square scarf seem to distinguish the north from the south." The teenager casually recited: "Hong Xiuxie, yellow embroidered shoes, things shake when you walk." The girl made another couplet: "A black and white cat came in outside the door." The boy shouted, "There is a big gray-yellow dog lying in the yard." The girl went on to make a third couplet: "Red, white and high, shine brilliantly, shining all over the east, west, north and south." The teenager sang again: "The green curtain is low, I like happiness and spend the spring, summer, autumn and winter together." After the three couples came down, the girl was very satisfied and immediately told her parents. The old man was also very satisfied after seeing it, so he chose a day to give the young couple a happy event.

There is a trick to getting to the top.
In the Qing dynasty, the emperor sent imperial envoys to inspect local officials, and those with outstanding political achievements could be considered for promotion. One year, when it was time for inspection, the emperor sent an imperial envoy named Zhang Buzheng. This Zhang doesn't work in imperial academy. He does nothing all day. He is delicious, fun and gambling. Therefore, people nicknamed him Zhang Zheng. This time, he was ordered to come to Jiangnan and visited a place called "Qianshan County". The county magistrate of this county is Lei Changsheng. Because he likes playing mahjong and has some research on chess, over time, people have nicknamed him Lei Changcheng. Lei Changcheng improperly made an appointment with Zhang, an imperial envoy, and arranged for three people to play mahjong with him. Now, like-minded, we play mahjong. Zhang was born in the Hanlin Academy, and he was not doing anything, but he was also somewhat literary. While playing mahjong, write couplets on mahjong. Ray came prepared and had answers. (hereinafter referred to as "Zhang" and "Lei")
Zhang: "heaven and earth, earth and heaven and earth."
Ray: "Yue Xian, people are happy, so are immortals."
Zhang: "Peacocks fly southeast in the mountains."
Ray: "There is snow in the northwest outside the door."
Zhang: "A chicken crows, the southeast and northwest are white."
Ray: "Red, white, high, spring, summer, autumn and winter, everything looks new."
Zhang: "How about the east wind? Everything is ready."
Ray: "Get rich but seek four blessings."
Zhang: "The gods Wan Yehe, Yi Yehe and Tiaoyehe of Yangtian brand are drunk in the Great Wall today, which is better than the cold wind making the moon."
Lei: "The sun and the moon flow across the river, and the south is also happy, the east is also happy, and the west is also happy, but seeing a peacock is like a beauty among flowers."
Zhang: "There is no one in the empty mountain, flowers in the water, and talking about soldiers on the table is like the sun and the moon."
Ray: "I am happy to win, and I am happy to lose." I never knew it before. "
Zhang: "Xiangyun rises in the first step, but the Great Wall does not fall."
Lei: "There are no common obstacles in front of us. We still need mahjong to express our feelings for the world."
Zhang: "Ann is coming! The Great Wall of Wan Li is dazzling. "
Ray: "Jiang Nv is not dead! The Millennium grievances are cleared once. "
After playing four rounds of cards, an imperial envoy won several thousand taels of silver, and the county magistrate's couplet was also wonderful and very happy. After returning to North Korea, he told the emperor that the county magistrate was appointed as a state official.
Once, the emperor summoned Lei and paid his respects. The emperor arranged for Ray to play chess with himself. (It turns out that the emperor loves to play chess. ) When playing chess, the emperor wrote a couplet on the theme of "chess" and asked Lei to make a couplet. (hereinafter referred to as the "emperor". "Ray")
Emperor: "Bet on the villa to compensate for rumors, sigh the accumulation of history in Qing Dynasty, and the Jianghu will play a game of chess through the ages."
Lei: "There are many jokes, the beams are still painted, and the lake is misty and rainy in Qi Fei."
Emperor: "occupy the whole lake, green water lotus, win a game of chess."
Ray: "The world is like chess, and birds enter the valley."
Emperor: "The great events in the world are like chess, and we will fight for eternity once."
Lei: "Tender as water, when will it flow to the end of the Six Dynasties?"
After the game, the emperor won a game and was satisfied with Lei's reaction. He was named assistant minister of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and the official residence was three products. It's really a coup for promotion, a coup!

Zhu Yuanzhang wrote Spring Festival couplets for the people.
On one occasion, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Liu Bowen how to govern the country. How can we make the country rich and strong and the people safe? Liu Bowen replied: "If we want to govern the world well and make the country rich and strong, we must start with education and strengthen publicity and education. The Spring Festival is approaching, and posting couplets in front of the door is a good form of publicity and education. " So Zhu Yuanzhang ordered that couplets should be written on the door of every household. To this end, couplets will be posted on the doors of every household on New Year's Eve. In the afternoon, Zhu Yuanzhang personally came to the street to check. At first glance, it looks really good. Most families put up couplets. Some couplets praise the society, while others look forward to a bumper harvest in the coming year. There are many kinds of them, each with its own beauty and rich content. Walking, I suddenly saw a door without couplets. Zhu Yuanzhang called to open the door and saw a man, cyclops. When asked, it turned out to be a bachelor. He wrote a pair of couplets to paste. Part I: "One pot at a time." Bottom line: "No children, no women, no wives." Horizontal batch: "A bachelor." It is also realistic. Further on, I saw a red paper posted in front of a family's door, but I didn't write it, so I went to inquire. I saw an old man and an old woman cleaning, so I went forward and asked, "Why do you only put red paper on your house instead of writing?" The old man replied, "neither of us can read." In our thirties, we are busy looking for help from others and have to cope. " Zhu Yuanzhang asked again, "What do you do?" The old man smiled and said, "I hide pigs, and my wife is a midwife." Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment, wrote a couplet on red paper with a pen, and made the first couplet: "Split the road of life and death with both hands. Bottom line: "Cut off the root of right and wrong with one knife. "Horizontal batch:" Eugenics. "Very funny, the old couple are very satisfied. The couplets posted in Beijing during the Spring Festival soon spread to the countryside, and couplets were posted all over the country during the Spring Festival. Up to now, there is a story that Zhu Yuanzhang wrote Spring Festival couplets for the people.

Wedding entertainment association
Three pairs of teachers in a school got married on May Day and asked the principal to write couplets. Writing couplets is the principal's hobby, and of course I am satisfied. The headmaster wrote three pairs of wedding couplets according to their courses.
A pair of geometry teachers married a physics teacher. He wrote, the first part: "Great circle, small circle, concentric circle, soul mate." Bottom line: "negative electricity, positive electricity, opposite sex electricity, sexual attraction."
The other couple is a music teacher who married a foreign language teacher. He wrote "1234567." Downline: "ABCDEFG." Horizontal batch: "Normal"
Another math teacher got married. He wrote, "Love lasts forever, and it is difficult to calculate addition, subtraction, multiplication and division." Bottom line: "After getting along for a long time, the points, lines and surfaces are all wrapped up." Horizontal batch: "grow old together."
After writing, we arranged to get married collectively in the school conference room on May 1 day. In addition, a pair of couplets were posted on both sides of the door of the conference room, which read: "Talented women, handsome men and beautiful women." Part II: "There are two romantic relationships between career and love."
As the officiating person, the headmaster delivered a speech and read out a congratulatory message, which was really vivid and elegant, and it was a beautiful talk.

Ganlong and Xi
As we all know, Qianlong is a wise king of a generation, and he often visits incognito. On this day, he came to Mingguang Village, Gan County, and saw people coming and going in front of a farmhouse, which was very lively. He came forward to ask the reason. It turned out that a farmer was giving his son a wedding to pick up guests. So Qianlong had a brainwave, played a joke on the farmers and gave them a gift. He sent three coppers and wrote a copy to send. The first couplet wrote: "Three coppers congratulate you. If you don't charge too little, you love money. " Farmers can't read and don't understand the purpose, so let their sons read. Although the farmer's family is poor, his son is very clever and studied for a few days. After reading it, I returned to a bottom line. It reads: "Two huts entertain guests, and they are delicious if they are afraid of poverty." After seeing it, Qianlong felt that this young man was extraordinary. Ask a few more questions, and the answers will flow. The emperor left with great satisfaction. A few days later, the young man was summoned to the palace by decree, and he was named a bachelor of Hanlin to participate in the emperor election. Unexpectedly, a joke couplet has become a ladder for young people to reach the top.

Beat and scold the rich
Once upon a time, there was an old rich man who ran amok all his life. He is evil and heartless, which makes people dare to be angry and dare not speak. With money, all three sons have bought officials, which is even more unscrupulous. They often collect money for various reasons. This year, he asked someone to give gifts in the name of celebrating his birthday. Being an official with three sons received many gifts. In order to please the rich man, a good local "flatterer" wrote a couplet saying: "Life is longer than the South Mountain, the mountain is not old, people are the oldest, people live long, have plenty of food and clothing, enjoy great honor and wealth, and the distinguished guests should have come long ago." It is natural and natural. " A poor scholar really didn't like it, so he cursed the couplets: "Fortunately, happiness is like the East China Sea, the sky is vast, the old man is old, his face is cruel, his heart is cruel, and his poison is like a wolf and leopard. He died of an acute illness. It came to a bad end, and the local good people didn't go, but it was too late to regret it. "
This couplet is wonderful. The old rich man is a mute who eats coptis chinensis-he can't say what he has suffered. Poor scholars will have a bad influence on the people.

Sister-in-law Huilian marries her sister-in-law
There is a family, parents died young, and brothers and sisters lived alone. But since childhood, he has been smart, studious, inquisitive and famous for his poems. At the age of marrying a woman, my brother introduced an object through a matchmaker. After several meetings, both men and women were satisfied. According to local custom, as long as they are interested, they exchange bride price. So the matchmaker agreed on the time to exchange the bride price, and the bride price of both parties was passed by the matchmaker. Unexpectedly, the bride price sent by the woman is unusual, not an item, but a painting: "You are cold in the village, the wind suddenly rises, the rain falls fiercely, you are riddled with holes, you are dizzy, you can't extricate yourself, you are cold and clear, and the trees are scattered and monkeys are scattered without warning."
After the matchmaker sent it, the man looked at it and thought hard. He thought it was too difficult to handle. After reading it, Miss Jie wrote a couplet for her younger brother: "I warm the room, shelter the wind wall, block the umbrella, have bright eyes and white teeth, and feel relaxed and happy. I am constantly striving for self-improvement, prosperous, brilliant and everlasting. "
After the second couplet exchange, the woman was very satisfied, so she chose another day to get married.
Little sister went back to America to marry her sister-in-law, which is a much-told story.
