It is said that during the Qing Dynasty , there was an old man named Liu De. He had no children and depended on his wife. He had several houses at home, dozens of acres of land, and he also opened a tavern. This

Liu De was kind-hearted and often He helped people in need and had a good reputation. Everyone called him Liu Gong.

One winter day, it snowed heavily, and it was freezing outside. Because of the cold weather, Mr. Liu warmed up a pot of hot wine. The old couple drank together to warm themselves up. After drinking for a while, they got up and went to the door to watch the snow.

, I saw a person carrying luggage and leading a child coming here from a distance. As he walked, the person fell to the ground and struggled a few times but still didn't get up. When the child

saw this, he reached out to help him. , the child was young and had no strength, so he fell to the ground without being able to pull himself up. The two of them helped each other for a while before getting up. Liu Gong took a closer look and found that the man was an old man in his sixties and ten years old. He was wearing rags, but the child was handsome, but his clothes were also full of patches. The old man shook off the clothes on his body and said to the child: Son, the wind and snow are too heavy, and the body is cold and cannot walk. Let's go into the tavern to warm up a pot of wine to eat and warm ourselves up. The two of them walked into the shop. Liu Gong went to warm a pot of hot wine and made some side dishes to put on the table. The child took the wine pot, poured a glass and handed it to his father with both hands, and then started to eat. Liu Gong saw He was young and knew etiquette very well, so he asked: Is this your son? The old man said, "It's Quanzi."

Mr. Liu asked again how old you are this year? The old man said: My nickname is Shen'er, and I am 12 years old this year. The old man said: The old man's name is Fang Yong. He was originally a guard of the Dragon and Tiger Army in Beijing. His hometown is Jining, Shandong.

. This time he came to Beijing to collect military pay. I never thought it would snow! Liu Gong said: Jining is a long way from here, why don't you hire a carriage? But endure so much hardship? The old man said:

The old man is a poor soldier. He can't afford a carriage, so he can only walk step by step! Liu Gong saw that they only ate side dishes and did not eat a piece of beef. He asked: Are the sir and his son eating vegetarian food? Why not eat meat? The old man said: What kind of vegetarian food do we soldiers eat? To tell you the truth, we are short on food and clothing, we only eat some side dishes, and we are afraid of not being able to get home. This plate of beef can

be worth several days of rations, so how can we get home like this! After hearing this, Mr. Liu felt miserable and said: "With such heavy snow, eating some wine and meat can ward off the wind and cold. You can just eat it. I won't charge you any money here." The old man still wanted to refuse, but Liu Gong said: This place is different from other places. Occasionally, the guest officers who passed by were short of money, but I didn't ask for it. Since the officer didn't have money to pay, just treat it as my treat for you! The veteran said: Thank you very much for your kindness, but you will not receive any reward for your efforts. I will definitely repay you in the future!

After dinner, Liu Gong saw that the wind and snow were not stopping, so he stayed the two of them overnight. The veteran was grateful. Unexpectedly, the old soldier caught wind and cold and was bedridden the next day. His son went to see Liu Gong. Liu Gong quickly sent for a doctor to treat him. Unfortunately, the cold entered his body and he lay in bed for seven days and passed away. Fang Shen cried until he fell to the ground. Seeing how sad he was crying, the Ligong couple burst into tears. They lifted Fang Shen

up and advised him: "Fang Xiaoguan, the dead cannot be resurrected. It is useless to cry. You should pay attention to your health."

Seeing how sad he was crying, the Ligong couple burst into tears. They lifted Fang Shen

up and advised him: "Fang Xiaoguan, the dead cannot be resurrected. It is useless to cry. You should pay attention to your health."Fang Shen knelt down and said: "Unfortunately for me, my mother lost her mother the year before last and could not be buried. Therefore, I and my father planned to return to my hometown to ask for some money to bury my mother. I didn't want to encounter heavy snow again. I was really lucky to find a benefactor who took me in. Who would have expected God forbid, my father fell ill and left me.

I have no relatives here, and no money to buy a coffin. I begged my benefactor to lend me a few feet of soil to bury my father. My son is willing to be a slave and serve his benefactor to repay his benefactor. I wonder if the benefactor is willing to

? After speaking, he knelt down on the ground. Liu Gong helped him up and said: "Little officials, don't worry, I will take care of the final arrangements." Immediately he took the money to buy clothes and a coffin, and prepared rice soup as a memorial. After everything was done, Mr. Liu said to Fang Shen, "I plan to let you go back to your hometown, visit a relative, and move back. But I'm worried that you are still young and don't know the way home. You stay in my house first, and wait until some fellow villagers pass by." , Ask him to take him back to his hometown, do you think this is okay? "

Fang Shen knelt down and cried: I have received such a great favor from my father-in-law, but I have not repaid him. How dare I say that I will go back? My benefactor has no heirs, and I am not talented. If you don't If you despise it, take him as a slave, serve him day and night, and show some filial piety. If a hundred years later, the boy can also be the person who pays homage to the benefactor's grave. When the time comes, my mother's remains will be retrieved, and she and my father will be buried next to my benefactor, and they will stay here forever. This is the boy's wish. Liu Gong and his wife were overjoyed and said: If you are willing, this is really the son given to me by God! How can I make you a slave? From now on, we will be like father and son!

Fang Shen said: Since my benefactor is willing to take me in, I will recognize my parents today. So they found two chairs and invited the old couple to sit down, kowtowed, and recognized father and son. Liu Gong couldn't bear to get rid of his original

surname, so he changed his name to Fang and called him Liu Fang. From then on, Liu Fang worked hard day and night, helping the family with work and serving Liu Gong and his wife. The two of them also treated Liu Fang as their biological son!

In the blink of an eye, two years later, Liu Fang was cleaning up in the store one night and suddenly heard a movement at the door. Liu Fang went to check and saw a young man covered in blood lying at the door, holding a box tightly in his hand. Liu Fang quickly put it away. Someone helped the young man into the shop, and summoned his parents to help the young man into an empty bed in the house. Liu Fang took care of him all night. Only when the young man woke up the next day did he know the whole story. The young man's name was Liu Qi, who was born in Zhangqiu, Shandong. Two years ago, he followed his father to Beijing to take the exam. Unfortunately, he was infected with the plague. Within a few days, both his parents died. Unable to carry the coffin back home, he had to be cremated and put in a box and buried with his bones. He didn't want to encounter a flood on the way home, capsize the boat, and narrowly escape death.

Liu Qi said: I am lucky to have met a benefactor who saved my life. However, my luggage was washed away by the water and I have nothing. I don’t know how to repay my benefactor! Liu Gong said: Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. If we talk about repayment, it is for profit. Is this the old man’s original intention! Liu Qi became even more grateful upon hearing this. After resting for two days, Liu Qi kowtowed to Mr. Liu and his wife to thank them. Liu Gong and his wife liked Liu Qi very much when they saw that Liu Qi was gentle, elegant, knowledgeable and courteous, and they entertained him well in the morning and evening. Liu Qi felt uneasy when he saw this and wanted to say goodbye, but his leg injury was not healed and he had no money, so he had to stay temporarily!

Let's say that Liu Fang and Liu Qi were similar in age, and both suffered misfortunes. Their temperaments were similar, so they became sworn brothers. Liu Qi asked Liu Fang to buy books to teach Liu Fang how to read. Liu Qi devoted himself to teaching Liu Fang. Liu Fangying was very enlightened and could understand the meaning just by reciting it. He works in the store during the day and reads by night. In just a few months, I became proficient in all the classics and poems.

Six months later, Liu Qi said goodbye. Liu Gong and his wife were reluctant to leave, bursting into tears, and prepared money to send Liu Qi off. Liu Qi was extremely grateful. Let's talk about Liu Qi's return to his hometown in Shandong. Unexpectedly, his home suffered from floods, the Yellow River overflowed, all the houses in the villages and towns collapsed, and all the human and animal houses were destroyed. When you look up into the distance, you can see that there are absolutely no people in the fields for dozens of miles. Liu Qi had nowhere to go, so he had to stay in a hotel. He wanted to bury his bones here, but he had nowhere to live and how to make a living. You need to find a place to stay and then take action. So he went to various cities, towns, villages and villages to visit relatives and friends, but found nothing.

After living for more than a month, the three taels of silver were about to be used up, and he thought: "If I use up this money, it will be difficult to move. Why not go to Hexiwu to ask a benefactor to build an open space, bury the bones, and lean on it?" Over there, it’s still a long-term strategy.” After paying back the money to the store, I came to the hospital at night.When he arrived at Liu Gong's gate, he got out of bed and saw Liu Fang in the shop, holding a book in his hand and watching. Liu Qi called out: "Dear brother! How are you, father-in-law and mother?" When Liu Fang looked up, it was Liu Qi. Leaving the book behind, he hurriedly caught the animal, took it home, unloaded his luggage, and bowed, saying, "Mom and dad are here day and night to miss my brother. It's just the right time!" They walked into the hall together. When Liu Gong and his wife saw it, they were overjoyed and said, "Official, you want to kill me!" Liu Qi stepped forward and knelt down to worship.

Liu Qi told the story about how his hometown was flooded and he had nowhere to stay, and then said to Liu Gong: Now I ask my benefactor to give me a place to bury my parents, and I am willing to worship my father-in-law as my father! Liu Gong was overjoyed. From then on, the two brothers worked together and worked hard, and their family business became more and more prosperous. They served their parents with great filial piety. Everyone around him envied Liu Gong.

A few years later, Liu Gong and his wife became old and fell ill. The second son waited on him day and night, and did not take off his belt at night. Praying to God has no effect, medicine has no effect, and looking at it will end. Liu Gong knew that he could not live more than a few days, so he called the two of them to the bedside and said: "We old couple have never had children of our own in our lives. Thanks to God's mercy, you two have been given to me as sons. Although they are adopted sons, they are more important than others." Live life. After I leave, you must work together to run the family business well, so that I can rest in peace! The two cried and accepted the order. Two days later, the couple died one after another!

After that, the two of them made their family business prosperous. After another two years, they reached the age of discussing marriage. Several wealthy families in the town saw that their family business was getting bigger, so they invited a matchmaker to propose marriage. Liu Qi wanted to start a family, but Liu Fang was unwilling. Liu Qi tried to persuade Li Fang three times, but Li Fang just declined and never agreed. When Liu Qi saw that his brother was unwilling to get married, it was hard for him to marry alone!

One day, he saw the swallows nesting on the beam, so Liu Qi wrote a word on the wall to explore Liu Fang's meaning. The word cloud goes like this: "Swallows build nests, both male and female, working hard together in the morning and evening carrying mud. If the female is not found to lay eggs, the nest will be empty after all." When Liu Fang saw it, he laughed and recited it several times, and also wrote a poem with it. Later. The poem says: "Swallows build nests and fly in pairs. The male and female are destined to be together for a long time. When a female gets a male, her wish is enough, but when a male comes, she will not know the female."

When Liu Qi saw this word, he was shocked and said: "According to this word I mean, my brother is a woman. It's strange that he is so delicate and has a delicate voice. He doesn't take off his underwear or even socks when he sleeps at night. It turns out that he still wears two layers of clothes in the hot summer. What he did! "

It turns out that Liu Fang is actually a woman and she has been hiding it very well! Later the two got married!

When he arrived at Liu Gong's gate, he got out of bed and saw Liu Fang in the shop, holding a book in his hand and watching. Liu Qi called out: "Dear brother! How are you, father-in-law and mother?" When Liu Fang looked up, it was Liu Qi.
