Age joke

Today, I share an interesting story with you. This story comes from Ma Yinchu. At Kong Xiangxi's 50th birthday party, Ma Yinchu told such a story to allude to Kong Xiangxi.

He said, "Once upon a time, there were three brothers. The eldest is called age, the second is called learning, and the third is called joke. One day, my father asked three brothers to go up the mountain to cut firewood. At dusk, the three went home, the older brother was cut, the second son had no knowledge, and the third son's joke was cut. "

At first glance, I didn't understand what this meant, but after explaining it, I realized that Kong Xiangxi was very good at telling jokes. Ma Yinchu is laughing at Kong Xiangxi's "older age, less knowledge and more jokes".

I have to say that Ma Yinchu's jokes are wonderful, which not only achieve the effect of telling stories, but also insinuate others without losing style. This mastery of words is really admirable.
