1 couplet: kick three stones in Qiao Lei; Cut the mountain out in two words.
Li Siwei, an agile scholar in Qing Dynasty, was especially good at couplets, which attracted the attention of many lovers of couplets. One day, a little shepherd boy deliberately built a small stone bridge with three stones and stood in front of Li's sedan chair.
Sure enough, the bearers didn't pay attention and kicked directly onto the stone bridge. The shepherd boy jumped out and quarreled with the bearers, which led to Li.
The shepherd boy said, "If you can draw a bottom line, I will be less knowledgeable than you. Kicked through three stones in Qiao Lei, right? "
When Li Yi heard it, it was a calligraphy couplet, and three stones were thunder. However, his brain suddenly fainted and he didn't deserve the bottom line, so he couldn't help blushing. Li didn't want to give up, so he had to say to the shepherd boy, "You wait for me one day and I'll answer you tomorrow."
It was not until he got home and saw his wife cutting cloth with scissors that he suddenly got inspiration. The next day, he arrived at the appointed place and said to the shepherd boy, "I have couplets, so I cut a mountain."
The shepherd boy smiled and said, "I said, Sir, was this couplet your wife's idea?" So feminine. A great man's words about' two mountains split a road' should be right. "
Hearing this, Li refused and said to the shepherd boy, "You won. I gave up. "

The two-part allegorical saying "My nephew plays lanterns-as usual (uncle)" can be said to be a household name, and the origin of this two-part allegorical saying is actually related to an interesting story of a famous emperor in history.

It is said that at the end of Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang joined the Rebel Army in Guo Zixing. When he returned to his hometown of Bozhou, Anhui Province, he met a group of street performers in the street. Zhu Yuanzhang also squeezed into the crowd to watch the scene of bustle, and saw that those people were playing their fists and weapons just right, and the onlookers cheered constantly.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing after reading it. One of them thought Zhu Yuanzhang was laughing at his lack of kung fu, so he angrily wanted to compete with Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw it, he quickly helped the man up and apologized. The man strongly supported Zhu Yuanzhang to give up.
