浣娶禮部尚書竇寧固之女，年甲稍高，成婚之夕，竇女出參，濤輒望塵下拜，浣驚曰：「大哥風狂耶？ Huan married the daughter of Dou Ninggu, minister of rites, who was somewhat advanced in years. On the wedding night, when the bride came out to pay respects, Tao bowed low in the dust. Huan cried: "Elder brother, are you mad?

既坐，竇氏復拜，濤又叉手當胸，作歇後語曰：「慚無竇建，繆作梁山，喏喏喏！」 When they were seated, the Dou woman bowed again; Tao clasped his hands at his chest and made a rhyming quip: "Ashamed to lack Dou Jian, wrongly playing Liangshan—yes, yes, yes!"
