All of them froze again!
After so many people had died, Mulan was so lucky to have survived?
When the Khan wanted to reward her, she had rejected the chance to become a minister?
Zhang Ye wrote:
"When Father and Mother hear Daughter is coming
They go outside the wall to meet her, leaning on each other.
When Elder Sister hears Younger Sister is coming
She fixes her rouge, facing the door.
When Little Brother hears Elder Sister is coming
He whets the knife, quick quick, for pig and sheep."
An image formed in everyone's heads!
It was a scene of an excited family in a jubilant mood! Their family member had escaped death and came home with military honors!
When Su Na read this, her voice also began to choke up. It was as if the story had hit her soft spot and she could barely continue narrating!
Zhang Ye took over Su Na's job and began narrating as he wrote.
"I open the door to my east chamber,
I sit on my couch in the west room,
I take off my wartime gown
And put on my old-time clothes. Facing the window she fixes her cloudlike hair,
Hanging up a mirror she dabs on yellow flower powder She goes out the door and sees her comrades.
Her comrades are all amazed and perplexed.
Traveling together for twelve years
They didn't know Mulan... was a girl!"
Xiaojiang felt her blood boil with passion!
At the side, another woman started to tear up.
The scene depicted in the folk song poem had caused many people to be unable to hold their emotions in anymore!
Finally, Zhang Ye chuckled and as he wrote, he seemed to ask everyone:
"The he-hare's feet go hop and skip,
The she-hare's eyes are muddled and fuddled.
Two hares running side by side close to the ground..."
His final words were written more forcefully one after the other.
"How can they tell if I am he or she!?
