(孔雀飞过，背景音乐1：枪声，孔雀应声倒下)
(J上台，潇洒状)
J： Hey,buddy!（对观众）Do you know who I am?(扇子打开：焦帅！)I live a happy life cause I have a great wife. Liu Lanzhi. (L上场，围裙，贤惠状)I love my wife so much and my wife love me too. We are just a perfect match! （L下场，帮J放衣服）But everything has its imperfection so as our duteous love. My mum is quite unsatisfied with Liu Lanzhi and I don’t know why！Here she is.(J下场)
JM（拄拐棍上）：Liu Lanzhi! Liu Lanzhi! Come out!!
L：（锅铲，围裙） I'm here! What's the matter, mum?
JM： I've told you again and again that you should call me “my most beautiful, graceful and dearest mother-in-law”.
L: OK. My most beautiful, graceful and dearest mother-in-law, what's up? (端茶送水捶背按摩)
JM： Since you married my son you have behaved so badly. You have been so rude, so brusque, so lazy……
L: But……
JM： Never interrupt me! You've been so selfish, so silly, so unsophisticated……
(L委屈下场，J从另一侧上场)
J: (打断JM) Mum! Why are you so unsatisfied with my dear wife? I have no ability to be rich any more. But I still feel greatful for god to present me with such a virtuous wife! We deeply love each other. We promised that we would still be a couple after death. Our marriage has just lasted for 3 years. And my wife has nothing wrong. So why are you so annoyed with her?
JM: How can you be so shallow that you actually speak for her! An impolite women! I have been filled up with pent-up anger for so long! (生气后突然态度转温和) The other way around there is a lovable and charming girl in the neighbourhood named Qin Luofu. Let me propose a marriage for you! And you ought to chase Liu Lanzhi away as soon as possible!
J: Oh my greatest mother! If I have no alternative but to leave Lanzhi, I won’t be married for the rest of my life!
JM: (极其愤怒，大捶床) You! Disobedient son! Ah ah. My cardiopathy! (开始慢慢走下台)I am wrong. I am wrong. I shouldn’t marry your father at first. If I didn’t marry him, I won’t be so disappointed to have a son like this. If I haven’t got a son like this, I will have a daughter who will listen to me…… (无尽的自言自语，L从另一边上场,拖箱子，出走状)[教育城外语网推荐更多：美文欣赏 英文剧本 ]
