Introducing Peking Opera with Gankun Fushou Mirror

The Peking Opera "Gankun Fushou Mirror" is still a representative play.

Hu aria: (singing Xipi's little guide) was framed to escape from the door, (following Adagio) cast a distant relative to avoid disaster, (almost three eyes) pregnant 14 months without children. Xu's concubine is jealous of this heir. She told me that I was pregnant with a demon and my family was unlucky. I was killed by a trick in the garden, thanks to Shouchun's help. Fortunately, the unicorn fell into the cold kiln, the unicorn fell, the mother's ... son ... (scattered board) cried, and the mother's heart was infinitely desolate (Grand View of Peking Opera, edited by Beijing Publishing House, 1985 edition, P3 19).

The Peking Opera "Gankun Fushou Mirror" is still a representative play.

The Peking Opera "Gan Kun Fu Shou Jing" tells the story that Hu Jun, the wife of Yingzhou magistrate Mei Jun, was pregnant 14 months and never gave birth. Xu Jinding, Mei Jun's concubine, bribed fortune teller Zhao and falsely accused Hu of evil. Meijun listened to Xu Jinding's plan and wanted to kill Hu. Shouchun, the servant girl, heard that she fled overnight with Hu's biography of the mirror of longevity.

On the way, Hu gave birth to a son in the cold kiln. Then put on longevity glasses with the baby. The master and servant passed under the Bashan Mountain, and the baby was crying for lack of milk. Shouchun went to Qiancun to buy dry cakes to satisfy his hunger. Hu was waiting, and was taken to the thatched cottage by the head of Bashan bandits, the leopard, and abandoned the baby on the ground. Lin He, an official who returned to his hometown after retirement, passed by here and took the baby home to raise it. Although Hu was released from the mountain by the leopard's wife, he became sick and crazy because he couldn't find his son. Since then, the master and servant have wandered around and suffered a lot.

Seventeen years later, Lin Biao, who was brought up by Lin He, entered Beijing for the competition and won the first prize. Lin He drew a picture to illustrate the hidden feelings of that year. With the help of the children at home, Lin Biaoxian realized his life experience and decided to visit his birth mother. Later, Lin Bixian met Hu's servant in the street, and with the longevity mirror, the mother and son reunited. Lin Bixian went to Yingzhou with her mother, and the truth came out. Meijun was reprimanded by Sister Bao, ridiculed by Shouchun, and felt guilty, so she made amends to Hu. The wicked get what they deserve. The family is finally reunited.
