In the early years, a young man got married in Jia Zhai, Chashan, Daluoshan, Wenzhou. After the wedding banquet, a group of brothers made a big fuss in the wedding ceremony. They made such a big fuss that they tied the groom to the mountain behind the village and hung him on a bayberry tree.

The bridegroom and the husband beg for it straight away, but these brothers just don’t obey. After hanging up, they returned to the bridal chamber to make trouble with the bride again. Just when the wedding room was bustling with fun, a white-eyed wolf suddenly jumped out of the mountain and bit the groom to death while hanging on the bayberry tree. When the bride heard the news, she felt like a thunderbolt struck her, and she burst into tears. The bride came from a scholarly family and had some ink in her belly. In her grief, she took up pen and wrote a poem:

The painting of the tiger has become unstained,

A century-old couple has had a rough night;

The joy has not stopped but the sorrow has continued,

Congratulations Visitors come to greet guests and return;

The lanterns are shadowed on the peacock screen,

Tears are streaming down the mandarin duck pillows;

It is a pity that I have never met my husband,

I have left my name in the world.

This bridal chamber tragedy poem is still circulated in the Chashan area of ​​Daluoshan, Wenzhou, teaching people to "stop in moderation" when making trouble in the bridal chamber, otherwise they may end up "extreme joy giving rise to sorrow."
