The 66-year-old Mr. Lu builds a house with 66 rooms, buys 66 buckets of oil, breeds 66 oxen and plants 66 willows. The accumulation of 66 brings a sense of being rich! Unfortunately, a wind blows and the house falls, the oil turns over, the oxen run away and the willows are broken. Everything is back to the beginning. 66 Oxen is a tongue twister, also an interesting and dynamic story with beautiful scenes. In particular, Mr. Lu sitting on the ground disappointedly after the wind stands up again to build house, buy oil, breed oxen and plant willows as the rhyme sounds again. It shows the wisdom of an old man who is big-hearted and never defeated by setbacks.
六十六岁的陆老头,盖了六十六间楼,买了六十六篓油,养了六十六头牛,栽了六十六棵垂杨柳……六十六的不断累积,堆叠起一派富足! 但是一阵狂风起……楼倒了,油翻了,牛跑了,柳折了……所有的一切又回到起点。这是一首绕口令,更是一篇趣味盎然、动感十足、画面具有大美的故事。尤其,当一切被狂风摧毁后,原本颓坐在地的陆老头,又重新起身,盖楼、买油、养牛、栽柳,歌谣的音韵声音再起,更展现了一位长者遇事洒脱、不被挫折打倒的智慧风范。
