It is said that the umbrella was invented by Lu Ban's wife. Is it true?/You don't say.

It's true. Luban was famous at that time and invented many things. It is said that behind every successful man there is a great woman, and Lu Ban is no exception. Lu Ban's wife, Yun, is very talented. Because of some very important ideas put forward by Yun, Lu Ban had so much inspiration when he invented things. The umbrella that has been used to this day was also invented by Lu Ban's wife, Yun Shi.

Lu Ban was born in the Spring and Autumn Period. Before that, people never had anything to shelter from the rain. This is a difficult problem. Every time it rains, people can't go out, they can only stay at home, and those who are already outside can only get wet by the rain. Luban wanted to solve this problem, so he built many small pavilions. Once it rains, everyone has a shelter from the rain, so don't worry about getting wet.

But after all, the number of exhibition halls is limited, but there are many people, which is in short supply. Moreover, the weather is changeable, where people go, there are not necessarily pavilions, and people still can't walk in the rain. This is still a problem.

What shall we do? Lu Ban's wife, Yun Shi, found inspiration from the pavilion built by her husband. She thought that if there was something like a pavilion that could be moved and carried around, the problem would be solved.

So, according to the structure of the pavilion built by Lu Ban, Yun made a top surface similar to the pavilion with cloth and made an umbrella rib with bamboo, which was similar to the structure of the pavilion. In this way, a movable pavilion umbrella was invented. People can finally go out in rainy days, and they are not afraid of getting wet.

The umbrella was invented in Britain in the18th century, while it was invented by our people in the1200th century. This shows how wise our ancient people are, and how smart and talented Lu Ban's wife, Yun Shi, is.
