The West Chamber is a well-known traditional drama. Maid matchmaker, exquisite, intelligent, enthusiastic, lively and brave, courageous and resourceful, is a beautiful artistic image that people love and admire. In order to fulfill the happy marriage between Zhang Junrui and Cui Yingying, she took the lead, handed books and Cambodia, and ran around without regrets. Even in the "tryst", she willingly ignored midnight and "soaked embroidered shoes with moss". After the story was revealed, she braved the risk and pain of "today's tender skin will whip the thick stick", and in the case of "the stick beating around", she confidently retorted the old lady, which was "treachery, ingratitude, how to get a good hand!" Finally, the old lady who stubbornly adhered to the concept of feudal family status, under the persuasion and persuasion of her "sharp mouth", had to cancel the clear stipulation that "Cui family does not recruit white son-in-law", and finally married Miss Yingying to Zhang Sheng according to the situation, so that "all shall be well, jack shall have Jill". But how did the name matchmaker come from? There's another reason.
According to the records of the Yuan Dynasty, the author of The Romance of the West Chamber put a lot of thought into writing this masterpiece handed down from ancient times, especially when he wrote about "quarreling with Cambodia", "leaning against Cambodia", "tryst" and "copying red". This enthusiastic and helpful little servant girl really touched him deeply and admired him. I think I have to give her the loudest and most beautiful name anyway. But after racking my brains for a few days, I feel all the names.
The words used are inaccurate and unsatisfactory. One day, while he was walking gloomily in the outdoor, he suddenly saw the reed tassels swaying in the pond, the fine Liu Suifeng fluttering on both sides, and a few lively little red flying insects flying from the reed tassels to the willow branches, and then jumping from the willow branches to the reed tassels. They are small and exquisite, very cute. When I asked, I realized that the little flying insect was called "matchmaker", and then I suddenly realized that it was in full bloom. Nowadays, the matchmaker is not only synonymous with Yingying's personal maid in the room, but also has wider social significance. In life, we can often see anyone who is enthusiastic about perfecting the good deeds of others, is good at mediating the combination of young men and women, and even helps others.
The middleman who matches the bridge has been given the beautiful and resounding title of "matchmaker"
