According to another legend, reported in the Shu Yi Ji (Records of the Strange), the dolphin is the transformation of a woman, surnamed Yang, who was drowned by her mother-in-law. Thus it also carries the name "lazy daughter-in-law fish."
《述異記》有一則傳說：海豚是由一位被婆婆溺斃的媳婦楊氏所化身，又別名「懶婦魚」，可能是因為從海豚身上肥厚的油脂，聯想到媳婦可能不夠勤勞吧。
