  Guanyu: Brother! We three have been hungry for days and when will this tragic life end? It's so terrible!

  Liubei: Yu, it's impossible that I don't feel painful, isn't it? But as the proverb says it is hard to sit in Rome and strive against the Pope. Now we come down to Caocao's corporation as gatekeeper, anyhow we can fill our stomachs between whiles. It's very hard to get work now. No diplomas and no job offers, what are you dreaming about?

  Zhangfei: Oh, Brother! ZhuGeliang's wife borrowed us 500yuan to cope with his husband’s CET6 fees last month, it seems that it's time for us to be debt collectors now.

  Guanyu: Yeah, Brother! Or we'll be as poor as church mouse

  Liubei: Alas! How did I forget this? Let's go! Go~~ go~! Hurry up! Follow me and go to the mountain for dunning!

  Aside: And then the three brothers climb the mountain to find ZhuGeliang.

  SCENE 2: ZhuGeliang’s house

  Actors: ZhuGeliang Zhu’s Wife

  ZhuGeliang: Good morning! I am the genius ZhuGeliang. But I feel so morose recently. Because my wife forced me to pass the CET6. What’s CET6? Do you know? You?(Ask the audience) I’ve never heart about that. And she obliged me to read so heavy books and do so many texts. It’s ridiculous. My major is military advice, not English. Why should I read this?

  Wife: Darling!

  ZhuGeliang:My wife is coming,she is so longwinded that I can never bear her.

  Wife: My dear, how about your study?

  ZhuGeliang:These books make me want to doze. I’m dizzy.

  Wife: Darling! Now, competition is so serious. If you can’t pass cet6 to get your master’s degree, it is difficult to find a job. I have stayed here for half of a lifetime. But never visit a bigger place like Tianjin.(cry)

  ZhuGeliang:Don’t worry, these books are too easy for your husband and don’t need to learn.
