Liu Yingchun Fenhewan (Cheng Pai lyrics and music score)
The red plum blossoms are blooming and the fragrance is just in the early spring [Xipi original board] The red plum blossoms are blooming and the fragrance is in the early spring, and the beasts are afraid of the severe cold. Cover the red door. Last night, the north wind was blowing hard in front of Qi's window. I wanted to go upstairs and watch Ruixue to relieve my mood. [Xipiliu Shui] The red plum blossoms are complemented by the snow, and the green bamboos are condensed with pink traces.
Exquisite jade plays in the golden well, and the cold birds are silent on the branches. I saw someone sweeping the winding path in the distance, trampling through Qiong Yao's body covered with snow. She was originally a charming girl from Xiuge, but she turned out to be a slut who eloped. I have no relatives to go to, my dear mother, when will I see my mother again?
Suddenly I see him wanting to express his grievances? [Nan Bangzi] Suddenly I see him wanting to express his grievances. You ask him how old he is when he can have a home, and then you ask him whether he can get married when he is young. You and I ask him Where can I find safety? When you escape, your mother ordered you to take charge of something, ah! My son’s mother! I have commanded you to serve me for the rest of my life.
I was originally a pretty girl from Xiuge? She was originally a pretty girl from Xiuge, but she turned out to be a slut who eloped. I have no relatives to go to, my dear mother, when will I see my mother again? [Nan Bangzi] Suddenly you see him wanting to express his deep resentment. You ask him how old he is to have a home, and then ask him if he can get married when he is young. Where can you and I be safe? When you escape, your mother ordered you to take charge of something, ah! My son’s mother! Have you ever ordered me to serve in power for the rest of my life?
Your father joined the army and there is no news? (Xipi original board) Your father joined the army and there is no news, and he relies on his son to catch geese to support his mother. Put the fish slingshot in your hands and return as soon as possible before sunset. (Continues to sing the rocking board) I am so happy to see him so excited, it is not in vain for me to raise him for seventeen springs. I lift up my clothes and come into this cold kiln. My mother is worried when my son walks half a step.
A horse came to the bank of the Fen River (Xue Chang Yaoban) A horse came to the bank of the Fen River and saw a naughty boy playing by the water. The geese from south are flying in the air with bullets and bullets, and the water is churning with spears and spears. He got off the saddle and started talking to the naughty boy again. (Singing Sanban) I hope to save the child's life, but I accidentally lose his life. The place of right and wrong cannot wait for long...
No news from Jiaoer when she is hunting wild geese? (Guide) No news from Jiaoer when she is hunting wild geese. (Change to slow tempo) Why are you restless? You get out of the kiln and call Jiaoer out. The red sun has passed noon and I don’t see my son returning. (Xue sings and flows) Just now I left the Fenhe River area, and a horse came to Liujia Village.
I tied the silk to meditate and saw a woman sitting at the door of the kiln. The shadow in the front looks like my wife, and the shadow in the back looks like Liu Yingchun. After he got off his horse and was able to walk, he talked to the woman again.
What a cruel robber (singing and crying) Ah... what a cruel robber! (catching water) I only hate my son-in-law. He should not sell me to others. I was so frightened that I lost my mind and hurriedly closed the door of the cold kiln. (Xue sings and shakes the board) Call the good wife, open the door quickly, I am your husband and turn back. ?
(Liu Sings Allegro) Since you said that your son-in-law has returned to the kiln gate to separate things and explain the details, you have made it clear and emphasized the recognition of each other, and explained that the crime of unknown origin is not a light one.
Hurrying to get a bowl of plain water? (Shake the board) After hearing this, I felt happy, and sure enough my son-in-law came to the house. When the kiln door is opened and the couple recognize each other, it's like dead wood showing spring again. (Singing on the rocking board) I quickly picked up a bowl of water and handed it to my son-in-law to moisten his lips. (Xue Jiese sings) I haven’t eaten plain water in the past few years, and I threw it back into the dust on the ground. (Liu joins singing) Mother and son make fresh fish soup and give it to their son-in-law to try something new.
(Xue Jiese) took the fresh fish soup with his hand. The smell was really unpleasant. (Liu sings and shakes the board) - Eighteen years of vague vowels, how can I know the love of suffering for my wife. I will wait today and I will wait tomorrow. When you come back, I will be your wife. (Xue joins in singing) I saw her face was red and springy, maybe there was something else going on.
I came out of the kiln and looked around, but there was no one outside the kiln. Tie the horse to the willow forest - Bu, and place the saddle in the dust on the ground. Entering the kiln to observe the movement, I saw a man wearing shoes. (Liu Changshuoban) Busy cleaning the back kiln, why did Xue Lang call me?
Listen to one word to scare away the soul? (Xue Changguiban) Listen to one word to scare the soul away, (continued) Scattered plate) cold water topping to embrace the ice. Just then I was passing by the Fenhe River and saw a naughty boy playing with bullets. The bullets hit the geese coming from the south in the air, and the spears picked up the fish and separated them from the waves. I intentionally told the truth, but I also frightened the people who were suffering. ?
(Liu Changguiban) heard that Jiaoer died, and (Changanban) three ghosts came over Youyou’s head. Fortunately, if you shoot yourself in the head, hurting others is not a minor crime. I wish I could move forward and bite you, but I won’t feel bad if I see you feeling distressed.
Eighteen years since you joined the army? Liu Yingchun: (White) Wait for me to clean, clean! Xipi shakes the board since you joined the army in the eighteenth spring, and your wife has suffered for you. If you wait today, you will also wait tomorrow! Xue Rengui: (Bai) I'm back! Liu Yingchun: (white) Xue Lang! Xipi shakes the board and waits for you to come back to the dragon so that I can be your wife.
Xue Rengui: (Bai) Huh? Xipi shakes the board. I think Mrs. Liu's face is full of youth. She must be having an affair with a lover. When I came out of the kiln door to meditate, there was no one outside the kiln. Tie the horse under the willow forest and place the saddle on the dust on the ground. I'm looking around here, and there's a reason for Xipi Sanban's men's shoe.
Xue Rengui: (Bai) Oh, stay here! Missing me, Rengui, I have been away from home for eighteen years. Where did this men's shoe come from? Woohoo, yes! She must have had an affair with someone else, so I couldn't help but call her out and behead her with one sword! Liu's! Why don't you come out with me?
Liu Yingchun: (Bai) Here we come! The back kiln has been cleaned by the Xipi rocking board. Why do you call me my son-in-law?
Liu Yingchun: Xipi Guide was frightened out of his wits by just one word, calling him Toudingshan, my son, my son! Xipi Sanban washed his hair with cold water and embraced ice. Just then I was passing by the Fenhe River and saw a naughty boy playing with bullets. The bullet hits the geese in the south, and the spear picks up the fish and the waves divide the water.
Liu Yingchun: (Bai) He is your and my son! Xue Rengui: (white) Wife! It's hard to hide anything when Xipi Sanban happened, so he gritted his teeth and told the truth (Bai) Oh, my wife! I just passed by Fenhe Bay and saw a naughty boy hunting geese. A fierce tiger came down from the south mountain. I was afraid that the boy would be hurt. I carried a sleeve of arrows with me. I really wanted to kill the tiger with one arrow. I didn't want to accidentally shoot my son to death. !
Liu Yingchun: (Bai) Oops! When Xipi Guide heard that Jiao'er had died, he called out to Dingshan, "My son, oh my!" Xipi Sanban is like a steel knife piercing the heart. Why do you have any hatred between my son and you? Why did you harm his life? (Bai) Xue Lang, you shot my son to death, where is his body now?
Xue Rengui: (White) Now on the bank of the Fen River, come with me!
Liu Yingchun: Xipi Liushui burst into tears after listening to his words, and couldn't help but feel pain in her heart. Follow Ding's husband forward. Looking for Jiaoer's dead body. When you are running around, you don’t care about the rugged path, and when you are anxious, you don’t care about the approaching dusk. There is no trace of Jiaoer's body everywhere. Where can I find Jiaoer's body?

When Dingshan grew up, he hunted geese every day to support his family because his family was poor.
One day, Xue Rengui returned to his hometown richly and walked to Fenhe Bay. He happened to encounter Dingshan hunting geese. Dingshan's skill in archery aroused Rengui's admiration. At this time, a fierce tiger suddenly came. Rengui was afraid that the tiger would hurt someone, so he hurriedly fired his arrows, accidentally injuring Dingshan.
