臼中無釜 [jiù zhōng wú fǔ] [jiu zhong wu fu]—
釜 [fu] (fǔ) means cauldron or pot; 鍋子 [guo zi] (guōzi) means pot or pan. 無釜 [wu fu] (wú fǔ) (no cauldron) is a homophone for 無婦 [wu fu] (wú fù) (no wife). A merchant, 賈客 [jia ke] (jiǎkè) 張瞻 [zhang zhan] (Zhāng Zhān), was about to return home when he dreamed of cooking 炊 [chui] (chuī) in a 臼 [jiu] (jiù) (mortar). 王生 [wang sheng] (Wáng Shēng) interpreted 解夢 [jie meng] (jiěmèng) it for him, saying: "When you return, you will not see your wife 妻 [qi] (qī) again. Cooking 炊 [chui] (chuī) in a 臼 [jiu] (jiù) (mortar) certainly means there is no 釜 [fu] (fǔ) (cauldron)." When he arrived 至家 [zhi jia] (zhì jiā) home, his wife 妻 [qi] (qī) had already died 卒 [zu] (zú) several months prior. (See) 唐 [tang] (Táng) Dynasty, Duan Chengshi's 段成式 [duan cheng shi] (Duàn Chéngshì) 《酉陽雜俎 [you yang za zu]》 (Yǒuyáng Zázǔ), Volume 8, "Dreams 夢 [meng] (mèng)". Later, this 比喻 [bi yu] (bǐyù) (metaphor) was used to refer to a wife's 妻子 [qi zi] (qīzi) death 亡故 [wang gu] (wánggù).
臼中無釜：釜，鍋子。無釜，無婦的諧音。賈客張瞻將歸，夢炊於臼中。王生為之解夢曰：「君歸不見妻矣。臼中炊，固無釜也。」至家，其妻卒已數月。見唐．段成式《酉陽雜俎．卷八．夢》。後以比喻妻子亡故。
