“He can’t arrange the food for himself”, cried her mother, “To get married with him my daughter only makes him poorer”.
“He’s intelligent. I’m sure he can change his fate”, convinced the matchmaker.
“Right”, said her father, “I only speak one time. Talk him whenever he can carry my daughter on a beautiful horse wagon, I will let them get married”.
The matchmaker came back, told him their words that made him feel both angry and ashamed. So, he decided to leave, away his village and planned he only came back whenever he succeeded. He went toward capital, working and studying. Because he’s very intelligent, he had his success being a mandarin after five years. He made his way back hometown before he left to have his job. Thought that he would be allowed to marry with her and that people who had ever sneered him would regret but when he came her village to meet his old teacher, people let him know that the girl got married. After he left, her parent forced her to marry with a man in the same village. Though she didn’t like and wanted to wait for him but she couldn’t be against her parent long time. The news made him very sad, not wanting to go her parent’s house or her recent house because he sacred her husband would have wrong thought and it also made him feel sadder. So that, he went straight his home. Luckily, he met her when he was on the path in field. He was bringing food for her husband who was working in field. They stopped to have a conversation. She told him the pain she had to stand up when he left. And he told her all things which forced him to go and now came back to marry her but it’s too late. Then, he said goodbye to leave. She looked at his back by eyes full of tears. There were all things happened but her husband didn’t thought that. He had seen the sight and turned jealous. He cursed her with the reason that she’s late. She replied few words and the cold-blooded brute turned much angrier that he threw the hoe he was holding toward her. The hoe shot on her face, on a dead position. At one, she fainted. Immediately, he brought his wife back to home, lied that she died because of a sudden heart attack and hurriedly found the way to bury her he didn’t want any curious person to discover his crime.
Dao just came his home and heard his lover die, a sudden dead. That gave him the feeling both surprised and heart-broken. He made a feast but didn’t want to bring it to her house. He waited for night, brought it to his lover’s tomb. He and nobody could think that he could hear noise spread out of the tomb while he was crying by the tomb.
“Bang-Bang-Bang”, he stopped crying, trying to hear where the noise spread out. It’s very strange as the noise spread out from his lover’s tomb. He immediately came home, picked some people went back the tomb and dug up. When they opened the coffin and saw the girl revive. That’s right she still didn’t die, just fainted but her husband because of scare brought her away to bury. When she awoke and realized she was buried, she had only way to save her life kicking on the coffin. Fortunately, his lover was sat by her tomb and heard and so that they could meet again.
Dao was very happy. He and his servants re-buried the coffin then help him go his home. He invited doctor to his house and cured her. When she was cured, she told him all things which had happened. Dao didn’t want to make that thing too noise so he ordered all his servants to keep the thing in secret. Then, he brought her to the place he working and they lived in there. She became his wife without a wedding.
Years passed. Her old husband had never thought that his wife had revived, each year he still did a feast, brought to her tomb to worship. That’s the third year after his wife died, the husband was on the way walking to a temple to join a festival and he met a woman sitting on palanquin crossing him. The woman looked like his old wife. He hurriedly walked after her and was very surprised that her voice, her actions which pointed that’s no one but his wife. He didn’t give up at there he followed her to home. He asked guards about the owner of the mansion his wife went in and they said him. It’s no one but the student, the lover of his wife.
“Why a dead who was buried years ago live here?” he thought. The more time thinking he suspected more. At last, he went back his village, found some people and dug up his wife’s tomb. And what he saw was an empty coffin his wife had vanished. Immediately, he accused Dao the person had seduced his wife. But, that’s the most stupid thing he had ever done.
After the mandarin who received the case heard whole their story. The mandarin had both witness and evidence to charge the husband. Therefore, the husband was prisoned the rest of his life for his crime, harming his wife and burying her stealthy. Dao who had saved the wife was allowed to marry with her. Later, a happy wedding was organized. The people happy most were Dao and his lover. Now, they could have wishes from others.

Bài 14: Danh từ đếm được số ít và số nhiều và quy tắc thêm chuyển từ danh từ đếm được số ít sang số nhiều.

      Như chúng ta đã biết danh từ thường phân thành nhiều loại nhưng về mặt ngữ pháp bạn chỉ cần biết danh từ gồm hai loại: danh từ đếm được và danh từ không đếm được. Về cơ bản mình sẽ nói qua một chút về danh từ đếm được và danh từ không đếm được vì bài này chủ yếu xoay quanh danh từ đếm được. Về bản chất danh từ đếm được là những từ bạn có thể kiểm soát nó bằng mặt số lượng tức là bạn có thể đếm 1, 2, 3 cái gì đó và nó có sự phân biệt giữa số ít (một) và số nhiều (hơn một) của loại từ này trong ngữ pháp của câu. Ví dụ: I have  bananas và  I have  a banana  có sự khác biệt rõ ràng, bạn có nhận thất mạo từ  “a”  ở trước banana không? Thêm nữa Bananas  are  yellow và a banana  is  yellow bạn có nhận thấy động từ đi kèm có sự khác biệt không; danh từ số nhiều sẽ tương đương vói ư chỉ ngữ they và danh từ số ít sẽ tương đương vói it. Cơ bản là thế. Còn về danh không đếm được thì bạn phải cân, đo, đong như những thứ thuộc chất lỏng, chất rắn, hạt, hay những danh từ mang tính trừu tượn
