中国最有魅力的地方就在于,几乎每个传统的物件儿的背后都有一个故事,即使是一个钥匙扣!

One of the greatest things about China is, that there is a story behind almost every fancy object, even a key chain!

White snake Bai su zhen 白素贞(Left)

Green snake Xiao qing 小青(Right)

 
Story 1

白蛇素贞还是一条没有什么法力的小蛇时曾被捕蛇老人所抓。幸得一小牧童相救。素贞心内发誓,一定要报答这份救命之恩。

White snake Su Zhen, still a little snake without magic power, had been arrested by an old snake. Fortunately, a young shepherd boy just rescued her. Su Zhen vowed by heart to repay his life-saving grace.

一千年以后,白蛇修成人身。往人间报恩时相遇青蛇小青,将其驯服,以姊妹相称。

A thousand years later, the white snake Su Zhen had become human. Su Zhen having returned to the world, Green Snake Xiao Qing met and tamed her and matched her with his sister.

得到菩萨明示之后,素贞前往杭州西湖找到了千年后的小牧童。此时是一个药堂的学徒许仙。

Following Pusa’s advice Su Zhen went to Hangzhou West Lake to find the shepherd boy – just after a thousand years. By that time, he was an apprentice of Xu Xian at medicine school.

天上降下大方贤惠又漂亮的女子,自然是呆学生许仙所不曾妄想的。素贞让二人相识不久很快就结成秦晋之好。

From heaven descended generous virtues and a beautiful woman. Xu Xian could not ever have imagined the little white snake to convert into a woman that beautiful. Xu Xian and Su Zhen got married soon.

只是许仙耳根软弱,误听法海和尚谗言。用雄黄试出妻子真身,活活吓死。白素贞带着有孕之身飞西天盗仙草,更与天兵交手,救回许仙一命。却也直接导致小产的后果。

But Xu Xian’s ears were weak and he misunderstood the monk Fa Hai’s confession. Hence, he soon put realgar on his wife’s human body to reveal her real form. While that he was scared to death. Bai Su Zhen flew to the west with her pregnant body to steal fairy grass and fought with the heavenly soldiers to save Xu Xian's life. This directly led to her embryo’s miscarriage.

许仙仍未懂得娘子深情,再次听信谗言的他用钵对准白娘子的时候,素贞再也无法逃脱,被压在雷锋塔下。要等他年儿子高中状元,才可盼望从中复出。

Xu Xian still did not know how to love her. Su Zhen could not escape again and got caged in the tower of Lei Feng. She would have to wait for her son to finish high school, after which to hope for rescue.

Wang zhao jun(王昭君)

 
Story 2

王昭君,与西施,杨贵妃和貂蝉四人被称为中国古代四大美女,有着倾国倾城之貌。

Wang Zhao Jun, together with Xi Shi, Yang Yu Huan and Diao Chan were the most beautiful women in ancient China. They could even topple kingdoms because of their exquisite beauty.

昭君生处于汉代,由于昭君的勇敢与智慧,在他们的敌人来拜见求和,请求与汉朝美女和亲之际,为了保国安民,昭君挺身而出,主动要求担当此重任。

Zhao Jun lived in the Han Dynasty. Due to her courage and wisdom, she voluntarily helped her country by saving it from the enemy when there was a request for a beautiful Han woman to be handed over as a peace-offering.

她的人生被编写成昭君出塞的故事。昭君告别故土,登程北去,去一个她完全陌生的地方。一路上,马嘶雁鸣,她在坐骑之上,情不自禁的拨动琴弦,奏起悲壮的离别之曲。

Her life was written into the story of "Zhao Jun departs the Frontier" (昭君出塞). When Zhao Jun bid farewell to her home country to leave for the North where she would be a complete stranger. Her horse was neighing sadly and the wild goose was crying. It saddened her so much that she could not help playing a farewell melody.

南飞的大雁听到这悦耳的琴声,看到骑在马上的这个美丽女子,忘记摆动翅膀,跌落地下。于是,“落雁”也就成了王昭君的雅称了。

Hearing such melody in air, seeing such beauty on horse, the wild goose forgot waving their wings and fell down. That is how Zhao Jun got the nickname of Luo Yan which means“her beauty was so amazing that it even caused wild goose to descend.

昭君出塞后,汉朝与匈奴之间的友好和平往来一直持续了60多年。

After the arrival of Zhao Jun in the Northern Land, the relationship between the Han dynasty and Xiong Nu sustained peaceful and friendly for over 60 years.
