The story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai (Butterfly Lovers) is based upon a historical legend known to every Chinese.It was in the feudal China, when love as young people's own choice was considered to be devious from the norm of the society.
However, two young people fell in love, and in a very dramatic way.Having been close friends at school,the young man, Liang Shanbo would never imagine that his pal Zhu Yingtai should turn out to be a fair lady when they were back home after finishing their school.
As a matter of fact, in those days, the sphere of activity of women was none other than their homes.In order to receive education as man did, the girl had disguised herself as a boy.During the three years of study,she fell in love with Liang Shanbo,who was unaware of her real identity.
At departing, Zhu invited Liang to visit “his” family,and told him “ he ” would ask parents to marry “his” sister to Liang.But since Liang was short of money, he delayed the visit.
Councilor Zhu betrothed Zhu Yingtai to childe Ma.Two years later, Liang Shanbo went to visit Zhu.Only then did he realize that the “sister” was actually Zhu Yingtai herself.
Liang was in deep remorse.He fell ill and failed to recover.He succumbed to the disease soon.
On the day of wedding ,childe Ma sent a flower boat to Zhu's home to bring her lover.
When the flower boat for the bride passed Liang’s tomb，there came a fresh gale,which caused the wave to surge so that the boat could not go any further,informed that Liang’s tomb was on the shore，Zhu ran there and knelt down in front of the tomb waiting bitterly.
Suddenly the skies fell and the earth cracked.Liang’s tomb split open.Seizing this opportunity, Zhu jumped into the tomb,and soon the tomb closed, burying Zhu inside.
Then the rain passed off, and the sky cleared up； the wind abated, and waves calmed down.
A couple of butterflies danced gracefully among the wild flowers.

然而就有这么一对年轻人以一种极其戏剧化的方式相爱了。梁山伯与祝英台在学校时本是好友。梁山伯未曾想到毕业回家的朋友竟是位美丽的小姐。那时的女子大门不出，二门不进，为了读书，祝英台才女扮男装。
3年的同窗生涯，祝英台爱上了梁山伯，梁山伯却不知道祝英台是女儿身。临别之际，祝英台邀请梁山伯到祝家庄去，并说要告诉父母把自己的妹妹嫁给梁山伯为妻。可梁山伯因为囊中羞涩，迟迟未能成行。
而祝员外已将祝英台许配给马公子。两年后，梁山伯去祝家庄拜访祝英台，才知道所谓的“妹妹”就是祝英台自己。梁山伯后悔不迭，从此一病不起，不久便病死了。
到了成亲的日子，马公子派花舟来接祝英台。当新娘的花舟经过梁山伯的墓地时，突然刮起了大风，直吹得波浪滔天，船不能行。祝英台一问才知道，梁山伯的墓地就在岸边。祝英台跑到岸上，跪在梁山伯的墓前放声大哭。
突然一声天崩地裂，梁山伯的坟墓裂开了，祝英台趁机跳进了坟墓。坟墓很快又合了起来，将祝英台也埋在了里面。这时，早已经雨过天晴，风平浪静，
只见一对美丽的蝴蝶在坟墓前的野花丛中翩翩起舞。
