Act I Dialogue with God

(A woman mopping the floor, casually holding her hair, wearing a skewed skirt, revealing a pair of red hands, and the wife of the fierce boss next to her put her hands on her waist)

Old: Hurry up! If you are lazy, I will deduct your salary!

M: (loudly) I know, I know, I will try.

(After the boss's wife left, Emma came to the window, looked at the sky and put down her mop. )

M: God, why is it so unfair, why, why! (loudly)

(God is watching from heaven)

God: alas! My poor child, how unfortunate you are, but there is nothing I can do. This is fate, and it is also the doom of your life. My poor child, what a beautiful woman you used to be. Unfortunately, fate has made you the daughter of a clerk. Finally, you married a clerk in the Ministry of Education.

Please allow me to tell the world your misfortune, son. I know your heart very well. I know what you want, but, but. ...

M: If only I grew up in an elegant and luxurious family (intoxicated)-oriental curtains, wide tables and chairs, high bronze lamps, exquisite machines, exotic antiques, and a fragrant little guest room (the bucket was knocked over). My god (painful expression), I really want to live in a dream, instead of facing it all day and trying my best to repay what should belong to me. (Continue mopping the floor)

God: That time (sigh) ten years ago changed your destiny. Alas, I only remember that it was a long time ago.

Act II Plan to Borrow Chain

God: One night, when Lu came home, there was a tablecloth on the round table that had not been washed for three days. The horse is still depressed, but Lu is full of joy.

(The road uncovers the lid)

Lu: (surprised) ah! What a delicious broth! There is nothing better than this!

(Ma Melancholy)

(Lou takes out the invitation from his bag and Mathilde takes it)

M: Minister of Education George Lambeno and his wife sincerely invite Mr. and Mrs. Loizai to attend the party held in the auditorium of the Ministry of Education on Monday 1 month 18.

She put the letter down slowly, thought for a moment, and then threw it into her husband's arms.

What do you want me to do with this?

Lu: (stuttering, at a loss) But, honey, I think you must like it very much. Where are you from?

Come out or not, this is an opportunity, a good opportunity! How hard it took me to get it! Everyone wants it, but it is hard to get it and rarely distributed to staff. You can see all the officials there.

M: (looking at Loire angrily, sideways) How are you going to tell me where to go? ?

Lu: (stuttering quickly to Mathilde) "In my opinion, that suit you wore in the theater is very good." ...

(The horse wipes his tears with his hand, sobbing)

Lu: (panicking) You, what's wrong with you! Why are you crying? What happened to you!

M: (calmly) Nothing, except that I can't go to the party without a decent dress. you

Dear colleagues, whose wife is better dressed than me, send this invitation to whom! (Speaking of which, I cried again. )

Lou: All right, Mathilde. Make a suitable dress that can be worn on other occasions. It's simple.

how much is it?

Horse; (Thinking for a few seconds, hesitating to take a few steps) What are the specific figures? I don't know, but I think there are four hundred ways.

Lang can do it.

Road; (Step back and look up at the ceiling, decisively) OK! I'll give you four hundred francs. But you

We have to make this long skirt look good.

God: the day of the party is coming, but Mrs. Loizai looks depressed, upset and sad. Her clothes are made.

One night, her husband said to her-

Lu: (concerned) What's the matter with you? Look at you these three days. You are very strange. Are you sick?

Horse; (Complaining) I'm poor everywhere. Even if the clothes are ready, I can even use one as a point.

I don't have any jewels. How can I go to the party?

Road; Put some flowers! Don't decorate your chest and shoulders, it's very fashionable this season!

Horse; (No) Among rich girls, such embellishment is nothing, hard and ugly!

Road; (Clap your hands, stand up, be happy) Don't you have a friend named Buddha! Your friendship with her is incomparable.

Ordinary, it is not a problem to borrow some jewelry from her!

Man: Really! Why didn't I think of that?

Act III Lending Chain and Loss Chain

God: Ma told a story and told the Buddha everything, which started all this bad luck.

F: Choose, dear.

Man: (happy) Oh! Thank you so much, Buddha!

Maria looks at this and that in front of the mirror, hesitating, not knowing which to take and which to put. )

Horse; (hesitates) Is there nothing else?

F: Not to mention finding it yourself. I don't know which one suits you.

(The horse jumps up, trembles and hesitates for a moment.)

M: Can you lend me this? I only borrow this one. (picks up a beautiful diamond necklace)

Buddha: (looking contemptuously) Of course.

Man: (ecstatic) Oh! How kind of you! Thank you. Thank you. You are my lucky star.

(Put your arms around Buddha's neck and kiss her affectionately)

Thank you very much! (galloping away)

(Ma attends the banquet)

(Indoor, male guests, female guests. Lu and two male guests were left out in the corner, sleepy and ecstatic, trying to control themselves, and their faces were still noble. All the male guests stopped talking at once and stared at her together. Ma smiled and made an elegant gesture, and soon a male guest came to ask her to dance. )

(Male guests start whispering)

Man 1: Who is that woman?

Man 2: I don't know. She's really beautiful. Let's see who knows her, so that we can introduce her.

Man 3: Miss, may I ask you to dance? (Reaching out and bending down)

Man: Of course!

Ma is very excited to see such a handsome gentleman come to dance. She glanced at the female guests around her. The jealous look on the female guest's face made her very carefree, and she walked to the center with the male guest like a show, dancing and intoxicated ...)

At four o'clock in the morning, the dance is over. )

(Lu puts a simple and plain dress over his shoulder)

M: (coldly) I don't want to wear this dress! (pulls down his clothes)

Lu: You'll catch cold if you don't wear clothes.

The horse still pulls down his clothes and walks to the door alone, regardless of his husband. )

Road; Wait, mom, you'll catch cold outside! I'll call a carriage. (leave)

Hey, the carriage-

(Take your time with the broken carriage)

Lu: Driver, hurry up. (to the horse) I have to go to the Ministry at ten o'clock.

(The driver answers)

M: Ah-ah-ah! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Road; What is it! !

M: (terrified) I'm .....................................................................................................................................................................! ! ! Oh! Oh, my God! ! What to do! ! ! !

What? ..... What's the matter! ! ..................................................................................................................................................................................！ ! Come on, look for it!

They searched in the folds of long skirts and coats, in all pockets, but they didn't find it. )

Lu: Are you sure it was still there when you left the dance?

M: (Confirmed in horror) Yes, I even touched it in the corridor of the Ministry of Education!

Lu: I must have left it in the car!

M: Yes, probably. Do you remember the car number?

Lu: (decadent) No! ! !

(They look at each other in panic. Finally, Loire dressed again. )

Road; You go back first. Go back quickly. I'll go. Let's go this way again and see if we can find it.

(at home)

It's about seven o'clock. You look depressed. )

What happened?

Lu: No, I haven't found it yet. I have been to the police station and looked for all the car dealers. I've looked everywhere where there is a glimmer of hope. (Silence)

M: God, why, why do you fool me like this!

Road; (Calm but a little stiff) It's time to write to a friend and say that you broke the hook of the necklace and are repairing it. this is

So we have time to turn around.

(The horse can't stop nodding, write a letter quickly)

The fourth act is the repayment chain.

Lu: (depressed) It's been a week, and there is no hope (pause). It's time to try to make up for this jewelry.

M: Yes (take out the fertilized egg). Let's go to the jewelry store according to the sign on the box.

(in the shop)

Boss: Madam, I didn't sell this necklace. I only sold this box.

Really? What shall we do, boss? Is there a shop selling this kind of necklace near here?

Boss: Yes. Let me see (after a while). There is one in a shop on Palace Street.

(coming to the store)

M: (looking at the necklace in surprise) Yes, this is it.

Lu: Boss, can this necklace be cheaper?

B: Oh, sir, as you know, we are also in a small business, and we won't talk much, but if you really want it, I'll give you a 10% discount. How about 36 thousand?

Lu: (A bolt from the blue. Boss, it's a deal, but you mustn't just sell it, at least for three days. If we find the lost rope in three days, can you recycle it?

Sure, but the price.

M: How about that?

B: Let me tell you something, the deal is 34,000.

Lu: (surprised. Grit your teeth) That's it!

(On the road)

Lu: Go back first and take out the 18,000 francs my father left me. Then I'll borrow it from relatives and friends.

God: So Roy began to borrow from the east and borrow from the west. He asked many people for help, borrowing 1000 francs from this one and 500 francs from that one. (Loi is planted to borrow money from others. He borrowed money from loan sharks and people of different nationalities and signed many contracts. He can ignore the rest of his life. My poor child, his future troubles will weigh heavily on him, accompanied by cruel danger and physical pain. Finally, he got the necklace.

(Ma talks about Buddhism)

Buddha: (looking unhappy and dissatisfied) You should return it to me earlier. Maybe I used it a long time ago. (Handing the box aside) It's getting late, and you should go back to rest. I think you look haggard.

Act 5 Meet in the park

God: From now on, this poor woman will try to pay off that terrible debt. She scrubbed cups and plates, and rubbed her pink fingers around the greasy sides and bottom of the pot. Every morning, she carries garbage from upstairs to the street, and then carries water from downstairs to upstairs. She works for the proprietress of a small shop. She has neglected her dignity and inner vanity. The couple pay off some old debts every month and then borrow some new ones.

In this way, ten years later, the debt was paid off, all paid off.

Boss: This is your salary today. You can get off work.

M: Yes, thank you very much (took the money and left)

M: (mumbling) Anyway, tomorrow is the weekend, so we might as well take a walk in the park and relax.

(coming to the park)

Man: (surprised to see a woman coming, a Buddha)

(hesitating, talking to himself) Do you want to go up and say hello to her?

(Step forward) Hello, Jenny!

Buddha: (surprised, paused for a moment) but ... madam ... I don't know, you must be mistaken. (Talking while walking)

M: That's right. I'm Mathilde. I can only rely on myself.

F: Ah (screaming) My poor Mathilde, how did you become like this?

Man: (sighs) Yes, it's been years. I've suffered a lot over the years ... all because of you.

F: Is it because of me? How do you say this?

You must remember the necklace you lent me! I wore it to the night party of the Ministry of Education.

F: Yes, why?

M: Anyway, I lost it.

F: No, didn't you return it to me?

M: I gave you another hanger, which is exactly the same as yours. You see, Lu Zi and I spent ten years paying the due price. You know, it's not easy for people like us who have nothing!

But I'm glad it's finally over.

F: (Stop) Do you mean that you bought a diamond necklace to make it up to me?

Yes, didn't you see it then? Exactly the same. (naive and smug smile)

Buddha: Alas, my poor Mathilde! But, but (grabs her hand), but my pendant is fake, and it's worth 500 francs at most! ……
