The story happened during the Song Dynasty. In Tantai Village, Tianshui Town, there was a woman named Xiaocui. This girl's beauty was like a fairy from heaven descending to earth, and many people came to pursue her.

The story takes place in the Song Dynasty period. In Tantai Village, Tianshui Town, there was a woman named Xiaocui. This girl's beauty was like a fairy from heaven descending to earth, and many people came to pursue her.

Xiaocui was born in an ordinary family. Her mother passed away just after giving birth to her, leaving only her and her father to depend on each other.

's father is a bricklayer, and he can always get a lot of work with his good skills, so the life of father and daughter is not difficult.

His father did not go out to work that day because today was Xiao Cui’s eighteenth birthday, so his father stayed at home to celebrate Xiao Cui’s birthday.

The father looked at his slim daughter and couldn't help but smile and said: "Now my daughter is also a big girl. I don't know who will take advantage of me in the future."

Hearing this, Xiaocui blushed and said, "Dad, are you there again?" You are making fun of me, Xiao Cui doesn’t want to get married. Xiao Cui wants to stay with her father all her life.”

Her father said: “When men get married, women get married. How can there be no reason not to get married? There are so many suitors. Can't you choose one you like?"

Xiaocui said: "Dad, Xiaocui doesn't want to get married now, don't mention it again."

After hearing this, his father also shook his head and chuckled. It seemed that he could only do it himself. My daughter is looking for a suitable candidate.

A few days later, Xiaocui stood outside the door anxiously, her eyes unable to stop looking into the distance, because her father had gone out to work early in the morning and had not come back until now. She was extremely anxious.

At this moment, neighbor Zhao Abo suddenly ran over and saw Xiao Cui at the door and said quickly: "Xiao Cui, go to the hospital in town quickly. Your father had an accident and has been unconscious."

After hearing this, Xiaocui's mind went blank. For her, her father was her god and the backbone of the family. But now she had no choice but to calm down and follow Uncle Zhao to the medical center.

At this time, Xiao Cui saw her father lying on the bed, with silver needles sticking into his body. Xiao Cui knelt down in front of his father and said: "Dad, please wake up. I am Xiao Cui. Open your eyes and look at me."

Uncle Zhao couldn't bear it when he saw Xiao Cui crying heartbrokenly. He hurriedly helped her up and said, "Xiao Cui, don't worry, you should wait until you ask the doctor. Plan it."

At this moment, the doctor also came to Xiaocui and said: "You are a family member. Your father was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep. The chance of waking up in the future is not high. You want to Be mentally prepared."

Hearing this, Xiaocui felt weak and was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, Uncle Zhao held her up. Then he saw the doctor pull out the silver needle from his father's body and signaled Xiaocui to carry him away.

So Xiaocui brought her father home with the help of Uncle Zhao. According to Uncle Zhao, his father had an accident while working and fell from a high place. The owner also paid double the wages as compensation.

Xiaocui looked at her unconscious father, heartbroken with grief. She cried all night in front of her father's bed, and her eyes were swollen from crying.

Later, Xiaocui turned her grief into strength. She firmly believed that her father would wake up and there would be a miracle doctor in this world who could cure his father's disease.

So Xiaocui worked hard to earn money, and frugally spent the money she saved to hire a doctor to treat her father. This persistence lasted for two years.

In the past two years, Xiaocui has invited many doctors for her father, but they have no effect, which makes Xiaocui feel very uncomfortable.

Later, Xiao Cui heard that there was a temple on Taizhou Mountain that was extremely efficacious, so Xiao Cui decided to go to that temple to pray for her father, which might have an effect.

So Xiaocui asked Uncle Zhao to help take care of her father, and she took the dry food and set off.

Taizhoushan is not too far away, but it takes a while to walk. Xiaocui arrived outside the temple around noon.

At this time, Xiaocui found that there were many people coming to burn incense and worship Buddha. She must have believed that this temple was very effective, and she couldn't help but feel excited.

At this moment, a quarrel suddenly came, and I saw a group of people not far ahead who didn't know what they were doing.

When Xiao Cui came closer, he saw an old beggar falling to the ground, and two people were beating him up next to him. Seeing this, Xiao Cui was shocked. The old beggar seemed to be very old. If I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on if I continue to fight.

So Xiaocui hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said: "Brothers, please stop quickly. If you fight again, you will be killed."

Because of Xiaocui's obstruction, the two people also stopped. They looked at Xiaocui up and down. Cui couldn't help but be attracted by her beauty, and was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Cui was frightened by the unscrupulous gazes of these two people and took half a step back. Only then did the two people react and said with evil smiles: "What, sister, do you want to stand up for him?"

Although Xiao Cui is very I hated the look in the eyes of these two people, but seeing how pitiful the old beggar was, I continued to say: "I wonder why the two eldest brothers beat this old man?"

One of them said: "This old beggar stole our food, so of course we want to Punish him."

Hearing this, Xiaocui realized that there was still half a piece of dry food in the old beggar's hand. They must have not lied.

So Xiaocui untied the package, took out his own dry food from it and handed it to the two men: "Two elder brothers, I will give you my dry food, and I also ask the two elder brothers to spare this old man. Let's go."

The two men gathered around Xiao Cui with a lewd smile and said, "It's easy to say, it's very dangerous for my sister to go up the mountain alone. Let us two brothers protect you."

After saying that, the two of them grabbed Xiaocui. The people around them were furious when they saw this scene. These two people went too far, but no one dared to stop them for fear of getting angry.

Xiao Cui couldn't help being shocked when she saw this. She retreated repeatedly to get away from the two men, but how could the two men let her go so easily? Xiao Cui quickly asked everyone for help, but no one responded to her.

Just when Xiaocui was desperate, a voice suddenly came: "Stop it, you are robbing a girl in broad daylight. I will definitely not let you go lightly."

The two people turned around and saw only a man in clothes. The gorgeous young man was looking at them angrily. It seemed that he must have some status. For a while, the two of them didn't know what to do.

The young man walked quickly and stood in front of Xiaocui. Then with a wave of his hand, several of his followers swarmed up and subdued the two people, and then they were sent to the government.

Xiao Cui hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Master, for your help. Xiao Cui is very grateful."

The young man helped Xiao Cui up and said, "No need to be polite, the girl is kind-hearted. Naturally, I can't let the girl be bullied. "

After hearing this, Xiao Cui's cheeks turned red, and after saying a few words with the man, he left. The young man looked at Xiao Cui's leaving figure and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, so he gave a few instructions to the men beside him before going down the mountain. went.

Xiaocui came to the temple, she respectfully offered incense and worshiped Buddha, and kept praying for her father in her heart, hoping that he would wake up.

After finishing, Xiaocui went down the mountain, but what she didn't notice was that the old beggar she had rescued before was looking at her with a deep look on his face, and his eyes were full of wisdom.

After Xiaocui returned home, she suddenly found a luxurious carriage parked outside the door, which surprised her. Could it be that some important person had made a mistake.

So Xiaocui came to the house, but the person in the house surprised her. It was actually the young man she met outside the temple.

The young man's face was overjoyed when he saw Xiaocui coming back, and he said excitedly: "Miss Xiaocui, you left in a hurry just now and forgot to introduce yourself. This is Li Shichang, the son of member Li. I'm here uninvited today." Miss Xiaocui, don't be surprised."

Hearing this, Xiaocui couldn't help but be startled. This Li family is from a famous noble family in Tianshui Town. She didn't expect that he was actually the son of the Li family.

Xiao Cui said quickly: "Xiao Cui welcomes Mr. Li from afar. It's just that the house is shabby. I hope Mr. Li won't dislike it."

Li Shichang smiled and said: "Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. It can be seen that Miss Xiao Cui is He is a careful person."

At this time, Xiao Cui's face was extremely red with embarrassment. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at him. Such a scene made Li Shichang couldn't help but feel excited.

Xiao Cui said: "Master Li, please sit down first. I will go and take a look at mine first. Father, come back later to discuss with the young master. "

Li Shichang smiled and nodded, so Xiaocui hurried to the back room to visit her father. But when she entered the room, she found a doctor performing an acupuncture on her father, which made Xiaocui stunned.

At this time, Li Shichang's voice started from From behind her came: "Don't panic, Miss Xiao Cui. This is the ancient miracle doctor I invited. His acupuncture skills are top-notch. He can definitely cure your father's disease."

Hearing this, Xiaocui couldn't help but be overjoyed. When she came to Li Shichang, she was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Li Shichang. Xiaocui said: "If my father can wake up, Xiaocui is willing to work for the young master."

Li Shichang said: "Xiaocui, your kind deeds touched me today, and your appearance also attracted me. I have never been distracted by a woman, but your appearance made me unable to control myself, so I want to I will marry you and love you for the rest of my life. "

Xiao Cui trembled when she heard Li Shichang's confession, and was extremely moved in her heart. She did not expect that the young master of the Li family would fall in love with her, who was of low status, and even find a miracle doctor to treat her father. Thinking of this, Xiao Cui nodded in agreement. .

Li Shichang was overjoyed and hugged Xiao Cui into his arms, comforting him softly: "Don't worry, Xiao Cui, I will definitely heal your uncle. When your uncle wakes up, it will be the day we get married." "

Feeling the warmth in Li Shichang's arms and listening to his sincere words, the uneasiness in Xiaocui's heart finally dissipated and turned into a deep love that filled her heart.

In order to give her father a better life For treatment, Xiaocui came to the Li family with her father. There were dedicated servants here to take care of her father. Every day, the ancient miracle doctor would come here to perform acupuncture on him. According to the ancient miracle doctor, he could wake up in up to a month. Come.

Xiaocui was very happy when he heard that, and he was even more grateful to Li Shichang, and his whole heart was focused on him.

Li Shichang took Xiaocui to meet his parents. Neither the Li family nor his wife were old-fashioned. People don't care about being in the same family. Seeing Xiao Cuisheng's beauty and filial piety, he naturally agreed to the matter.

But there was one person in the Li family who regarded Xiao Cui as a thorn in his side, and that was Li Shichang's cousin Li Mei'er. Li Shichang and Li Shichang grew up together and were recognized as childhood sweethearts, so Li Meier fell in love with Li Shichang from an early age.

However, Li Shichang always treated Li Meier as a younger sister, and there was no relationship between men and women. However, Li Meier did not give up and was straightforward. Moved to the Li family, hoping to impress Li Shichang.

Unexpectedly, Li Shichang actually brought Xiao Cui back and claimed to marry her. This angered Li Mei'er, so Li Mei'er went to Xiao Cui and made a big fuss. Xiaocui had never seen such a battle before and didn't know how to refute it.

But this incident angered Li Shichang. He directly drove Li Meier out of the Li family to prevent Li Meier from disturbing them again.

In the blink of an eye, Xiaocui had already arrived at the Li family. It was already a month, and Xiao Cui was watching the ancient miracle doctor for treatment. When the last silver needle was removed, Xiao Cui found that her father's eyelids twitched, and then he opened his eyes.

Xiao Cui was excited. She hugged her father, she had been waiting for this day for too long, and her father looked around with a confused look. Xiaocui then told her father what had happened before, and her father was also happy for his daughter.

So Li Yuanwai put the two away. The wedding was scheduled for three days later, and then the news of the Li family's marriage spread throughout the city. Everyone was waiting for that day to join in the fun.

Three days passed quickly, and I looked around at the Li family. It looked festive, and there were countless guests who came to congratulate them. Officer Li also filled the streets with tables and chairs so that the common people around could have a wedding banquet.

Seeing that the auspicious time was approaching, he hosted the steward. , Li Shichang and Xiao Cui finally got their wish and got married.

Xiaocui was then sent to the bridal chamber, while Li Shichang stayed to toast. Soon Li Shichang was drunk by everyone, and Li Shichang came to smooth things over and let Li Shichang leave.

Li Shichang swayed towards the bridal chamber when suddenly a figure stopped him. When he looked closely, it turned out to be Li Meier. Just when Li Shichang was about to get angry, Li Meier said: "Cousin, I won't make trouble unreasonably. I'm here today." Congratulations to you, I also specially asked for a jade pendant for my cousin, which can bring good luck and avoid bad luck. Please help me bring it for her, and I will apologize to her."

Li Shichang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Li Meier's change. Smiling, he took the jade pendant and walked into the bridal chamber. At this time, Xiao Cui was sitting in front of the bed. Li Shichang opened his hijab excitedly and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Xiao Cui's beautiful appearance.

Xiaocui couldn't help but hide her face and chuckle when she saw this, so the two drank the glasses of wine. Suddenly Li Shichang thought of the jade pendant, so he said what Li Meier said. Xiaocui also forgave her and put the jade pendant on her. body.

As the saying goes, a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold. The two of them would not miss such a beautiful thing, so I will omit 10,000 words here.

Ever since the two got married, they have become more and more affectionate, which made people envious. But just a few days later, an accident happened.

On this day, Xiaocui suddenly collapsed on the dinner table, which frightened everyone in the Li family. Li Shichang hurriedly invited the ancient miracle doctor to diagnose and treat her, but the ancient miracle doctor was unable to find out the disease. This was the first time he had encountered such a disease in so many years of practicing medicine. to such a situation.

But the strange thing is that Xiao Cui woke up on his own after a while, as if nothing happened. The ancient doctor had nothing to do about it, but since Xiao Cui was fine, that was enough.

A few days later, Xiaocui fainted more and more often. This made Li Shichang anxious, and the doctor could not find out the reason. Could it be that he was possessed by an evil spirit?

Thinking of this, Li Shichang suggested that he go to the temple to burn incense and worship, which might help. So the couple came to the previous temple and knelt down on the ground devoutly, hoping to use this to erase Disaster on the body.

After finishing the work, the couple came to the second place. At this time, the couple saw the beggar again, so Xiaocui took out some silver coins and handed them to the beggar. The beggar took the silver coins without politeness.

Just when Xiaocui was about to leave, the beggar suddenly said: "You can't live more than five days."

Li Shichang was furious when he heard this, and pointed at the old beggar and cursed: "You are so rude. "My wife helped you twice, but you dared to curse her like this."

The old beggar ignored Li Shichang's abuse. Instead, he looked at Xiaocui and said, "For the sake of helping me, I will save you once." "Bring the jade pendant."

Xiao Cui was stunned. Is there something wrong with the jade pendant? After some thought, Xiaocui handed the jade pendant to the beggar's hand.

The beggar took the jade pendant and explained: "This is the jade pendant for burial with the dead. It is a very dangerous thing. If you wear it on your body, something will happen."

Xiao Cui was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect it to be like this. Li Shichang also noticed that there was something unusual about the old beggar, so he hurriedly came to the old beggar and said, "Please ask the Taoist Master to save my wife."

The old beggar nodded and said, "I have a Taoist Talisman here. , take it back and stick it on the bed, and you will be fine in three days."

Xiaocui took the Taoist talisman respectfully and bowed to the old beggar, but the old beggar suddenly disappeared, leaving the couple. People were amazed.

After returning home, Xiaocui put the talisman on the bed. Three days later, as the old beggar said, the strange disease never appeared again.

Li Shichang sent Li Meier to the government. Under interrogation by the county magistrate, he told the truth. Because she was jealous of Xiaocui, she found a Taoist priest and spent a lot of money to buy this thing. Unexpectedly, it was bought by an old man. The beggar solved the problem, and Li Meier received the due punishment.

Since then, the couple has not encountered anything strange. A year later, Xiaocui gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, for Li Shichang, and the family lived a happy life.

is written at the end:

Xiaocui is kind-hearted, which attracts Li Shichang's attention and renews their marriage, thus saving her father. Xiaocui's kind deeds also touched the old beggar, thus saving her own life.

As for Li Meier, she was ruthless and would do anything for her own interests, so she got her retribution and was jailed.

Therefore, we must also pay attention in life. We must not have the intention to harm others, and we must have the intention to guard against others. Only by accumulating virtue and doing good can we go further.
