Chengdu Prefecture scholar Song Xiu is talented. Not only is he good at reading books, but his paintings are also vivid. Unfortunately, his family is poor and he has not married in his thirty years old. His parents have passed away, and he is left to live alone. Because he failed many tests, in order to live, he had to go to a wealthy family surnamed Sun to work as a teacher and eat and live in his backyard.
Next door is the rich family of Lou Yuanwai. Everyone here knows that Lou Yuanwai has a beautiful daughter named Su Niang.
Anyone who has seen her is amazing.
Every time Su Niang goes to temple fair , people are always watching. It is said that the matchmaker who goes to propose marriage is about to break through the threshold.
But Su Niang is extremely enthusiastic and has never liked anyone.
Song Xiu admired her very much and always wanted to see her, but she never had a chance.
Although it is only a wall separated from Lou Yuanwai's house, it has been more than half a year since I lived in Sun's house and I have never had the chance to see her.
One day, after school, he sat in the yard to have tea and rest.
After a while, I suddenly heard a woman's voice coming from next door, and was stunned.
then moved the ladder, climbed the ladder and peeked secretly on the wall, unable to help but be shocked.
I saw a hundred flowers blooming in the garden next door, butterflies dance in groups, the fragrance of flowers is everywhere, a stunning woman giggling and swinging ...
Song Xiu grew up so old, and she had never seen such a beautiful woman, and she really liked her.
thought to myself that if I could marry her, I would have no regrets in my life.
He looked at him in a daze, forgetting everything, suddenly he fell off the ladder without paying attention, and he fell down the ladder. The pain was unbearable and he couldn't help but moan.
"Who? Who is it?" asked several maids.
Song Xiu was so scared that she didn't dare to pant, her face was flushed.
The maid heard the movement and moved a ladder to lie on the wall. Seeing his embarrassment, she couldn't help laughing out loud and went back to tell the lady.
The woman's face changed drastically after hearing this, and she said angrily: "How dare someone peep, I will give you a apprentice . Look at me tell my father, get rid of him!"
After saying that, she left angrily.
After hearing this, Song Xiu became even more scared and felt ashamed and restless.
The next day, he was not in good spirits because of this and was always distracted during class. The three students took the opportunity to skip class and play, and did not attend class well.
Finally finished class, Song Xiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no movement for a day.
Just as I was about to have a rest, the owner of the home, Sun Fu, came over with a ugly expression.
blamed him and said, "A scholar should know that people do not understand the past and present, they have no sense of shame, and they are dressed in a dog and a dog. They are not ashamed of being dressed in a dog and a dog! Yesterday's incident was not done by a scholar. How could I feel at ease to hand over my child to you for a person like you? From tomorrow, the teacher will not have to come to class. Now go to the housekeeper to receive your slander."
After saying that, he left angrily.
After hearing this, Song Xiu was ashamed and left with a blushing face.
When I returned home, I felt a fire and I became sick.
Moreover, since he met Su Niang, he missed him very much, and he didn't want to eat and fell in love with him.
It is really a dream to know that my family is a bare-stop, but I am just a poor scholar who failed many times.
He lay in a daze on the bed, sighing.
The neighbor grandma saw him sick and often sent him some food.
It took half a month to get better. Thinking that I couldn't sit there and eat the whole country, I had to sigh and pick up a sickle and go up to collect firewood.
On the way back, I saw a huge pheasant injured, covered in blood, dying, and a bloody hole on his body was still bleeding, as if he was bitten by some animal.
This poor pheasant will be dying if she doesn't save it.
He had pity and hurriedly tore off a strip of cloth from his clothes and bandaged it...
went to pick some herbs and bit them into pieces and apply them to the wound.
When he was injured before, he always did this as long as it was not a big injury.
Take the pheasant home and take care of it carefully.
After a while, the pheasant was injured.
Song Xiu thought that it was originally living in the mountains, so he sent it to the mountains.
said to it: "You have recovered from your injuries. It's time to go back to your place. After you go back, be careful not to let those ferocious animals hurt you!"
The pheasant seemed to understand it, nodded, and slowly entered the forest.
Song Xiu saw that it disappeared, so he turned around and went home.
Because she likes Su Niang very much, Song Xiu studied harder and dreamed of the day when she succeeded and made a fame. She went to propose marriage in person, but she didn't believe that Mr. Lou would not agree.
A friend of hiss thought he was a toad and wanted to eat swan meat.
Now, I can barely make a living and wantonly marry Su Niang. The Lou family goes to propose marriage every day and is driven out by the extremely arrogant Su Niang.
It is said that Su Niang2 is as beautiful as a flower, but she is domineering and most people cannot catch her eyes.
Besides, when he gets fame and fortune, he still doesn’t know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. Maybe one day, he will get married and become a wife, which will make him give up.
But after hearing this, Song Xiu not only did not give up, but also dreamed of seeing that Su Niang again.
After that, whenever you have time, you will wait on the way to the temple fair.
Hard work pays off. One day, he really waited for it.
Su Niang was sitting in the carriage, with many servants following around the carriage, and a maid was closely following next to the carriage.
Everyone saw a scholar standing on the roadside, but they didn't care and walked slowly over...
Seeing that they were about to leave, Song Xiu didn't care about his face and was shameless.
saluted the maid next to the carriage and asked her to pass the message to Su Niang. She was very fond of her and would not marry her in this life. Although she is poor now, she will definitely have the day to succeed in the future.
The maid looked at his stupid look and couldn't help laughing out loud.
walked to the carriage and told the lady.
A moment later, I came back and forth and replied, the maid suddenly changed her face and said to him angrily: "You poor and poor scholar, our lady said that you are not worthy of carrying shoes for her under your conditions!
" After saying that, she spat at him and turned around and left.
After hearing this, Song Xiu felt like a bucket of cold water was poured from top to bottom. In an instant, he felt cold and lost and melancholy.
staggered back home and fell ill again.
At night, he lay in a daze on the bed, thinking about the scene of being humiliated during the day. The more he thought about it, the more he was sad, he was completely disappointed, and was very tired of the world. He lay in bed without eating or drinking.
After a while, suddenly, my eyes lit up. Su Niang actually walked in and looked at him with a smile.
Song Xiu was surprised and happy. He couldn't believe his eyes. He thought he was dreaming and pinched himself hard. It hurt. The one in front of him was indeed Su Niang.
sat up excitedly and asked her why she was here at night? If there is a difference between men and women, it will ruin her reputation if it is spread.
Su Niang smiled and told him that because there were servants next to him during the day, she did not dare to express her feelings to him. If her father found out, she would be furious and would implicate those servants.
Song Xiu was very moved after hearing this. The two of them had deep feelings and had a private life.
Song Xiu had nothing to give, so he had to give her a jade pendant that her mother left for him.
Su Niang gave him the sachet she wore as a love interest item.
Tell him affectionately that if he wants him to study hard, he will wait for him. When he succeeds and becomes famous, it is the day he will marry himself.
After hearing this, Song Xiu was overjoyed. He was mostly cured of illness. Just as he was about to say something, Su Niang left.
Song Xiu hurriedly chased out barefoot... Where did the shadow come from?
The next day, Su Niang came again, and Song Xiu was very excited.
Su Niang took out a bag, which contained a lot of money, so he just wanted to study hard in the future. This money is enough for him to do nothing and eat and drink for two years.
After saying that, she left quickly without waiting for Song Xiu to say something... Since then, she has never come again.
After that, Song Xiu had hope and became full of energy. He did not leave the house every day and studied poetry and books hard in the house.
I study poetry hard until late at night every day, and I have to forget to eat and sleep.
The beautiful scenery outside was like a picture. Several of his friends asked him to go out for fun, but he was not moved.
Just like that, a flash of time passed, a year passed.
A few months later, the day of the provincial examination came, and Song Xiu was confidently ready to take the exam.
Before leaving, he thought that he would go to Mr. Lou’s house to propose marriage, but he was afraid that after he left, Mr. Lou married Su Niang to someone else.
then brought a generous gift and came to propose marriage with shamelessness.
Never expected that the guardian was looking down on the door and did not take him seriously.
Song Xiu beg him to go in and report that he is here to propose marriage.
, the servant drove him out with a fierce look and closed the door.
Song Xiu was unwilling to give up and knocked on the door outside...
Lou Man Wai, who was resting, heard the sound and was very annoyed. When he went out to see Song Xiu, he angrily asked him what he had done?
Song Xiu bowed repeatedly and came to propose marriage sincerely.
After hearing this, Lou Yuanwai looked at him with disdain and looked up and down, not taking him seriously, saying that his daughter had been engaged and ordered someone to drive him out...
Song Xiu was shocked and shouted loudly that he would not marry Su Niang in this life, and that he would definitely pass the exam this time.
Lou Ji's maid heard the sound and said angrily: "You are really a toad who wants to eat swan meat! If you don't look in the mirror, how could our lady marry you!"
After hearing this, Song Xiu hurriedly took out the love thing given to Su Niang, the sachet.
beg him to pass a message to the lady, and he will never let her down. If he passes the exam, he will definitely come back to marry her and let her wait for him and not marry others.
The maid was shocked when she saw the sachet, snatched it up and rushed in.
Not long afterwards, I heard the cry of a woman from inside...
There were also scolding...
. Mr. Lou saw that his daughter had made a lifelong decision with someone. He was ashamed and scolded her furiously...
Su Niang defended herself in anger, and was about to die. She felt that her reputation had been ruined by this scholar and was very noisy...
Song Xiu came to her senses. She was all hurting her and sighed outside in a hurry.
Not a big meeting, Mr. Lou came out angrily, beat and scolded him, and drove him away.
Song Xiu regretted it and staggered back home, swearing in her heart that this time, she must take a good exam and be successful for Su Niang.
A few days later, he embarked on the road of the exam, worked hard all the way, and went through hardships, and after many days, he finally arrived in the city.
At this time, there were three days before the exam, and he lived in a small inn.
Other candidates were drinking and having fun, and went out to stroll in groups of three or three.
But he studied hard alone in the inn.
Three days later, what he never expected was that he would pass every exam and it went very smoothly.
more than a few days later, embarked on the way home.
After a while, he finally arrived at his hometown.
On the road, he met a team of sending brides. He looked at the team of brides and drums, and everyone was smiling happily and very lively.
I thought that one day I would marry Su Niang like this, and I was very excited and felt like I was returning home.
He grabbed an old woman in the team and asked, whose family is so lively to get married?
The old woman told him that this was the son of the richest man in the local area, Tang Qiangzhu, who was the famous beauty Su Niang.
What?
Song Xiu thought he had heard it wrong and asked urgently.
The old woman said it again.
After hearing this, Song Xiu was shocked, all over, and disheartened. What's going on! Didn’t Su Niang agree to marry herself when she passed the exam!
He staggered after him in disappointment... He wanted to ask clearly.
, but was knocked to the ground by several big men, scolded and left.
Song Xiu stared at the woman she liked and got married in such a family. Her heart was like a knife, and she was completely disappointed. She sat on the ground, her eyes blurred with tears.
When I got home, my eyes were dazed without eating or drinking. I just locked myself in the house for several days and thought a lot.
vowed to get a good exam, but I failed this year, and then I will continue to get the exam until I pass.
full of energy, and I picked up the book again.
A month later, one night, he was studying in the house, and suddenly his eyes lit up. A beautiful woman in a colorful dress with a colorful dress appeared in front of him. A woman like
can only be seen in the painting. She is even more beautiful than that Su Niang. She is simply a fairy descending to earth.
He stared blankly, feeling like he was dreaming.
At this moment, the woman suddenly turned around and suddenly turned into Su Niang.
Song Xiu was shocked and opened his mouth and couldn't speak.
The woman smiled and said, "To be honest, I am not a human, but a fairy. Do you still remember that a few years ago, you saved a pheasant, that is me, who has been practicing in the mountains for a hundred years. That day, I sat on the top of the mountain to practice, and was attacked by a hungry wolf, injured, and saved by you. I want to repay you, but I am very anxious to see that you like Su Niang and have love for love. But although Su Niang is as beautiful as a flower, she is a domineering person. She often beats and scolds her servants, and is a sinister and cunning person. The young master is kind-hearted, how can she marry her? Besides, according to your human rules, it is not a good family, even if you marry, you will not have a good life. But I see that you are depressed, I was afraid that if I continued like this, my studies were wasted and my future was bleak, so I had to turn into Su Niang to encourage you to cheer up again. In a few days, good things will come."
After saying that, I suddenly disappeared without waiting for Song Xiu to speak.
Song Xiu likes her very much, thinking that although she is a monster, she is kind-hearted and so beautiful. I really want her to be my wife and become very excited.
A few days later, a good news came, and he actually won the juren and cried with joy.
After the relatives and friends knew about it, they all came to celebrate with generous gifts.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Lou actually came to celebrate in person, which made Song Xiu flattered.
At the table, Mr. Lou drank too much and sincerely apologized to him.
made Song Xiu sigh and feel mixed feelings.
The group of people ate and drank until late at night before leaving.
After the guests left, Song Xiu was also drunk and staggered out and saw that the moon was bright like day and the moon scenery was beautiful.
He stared at the moon in the sky, missing that Ji Zi very much, thinking in his heart, how great it would be if he could marry her!
was thinking, and suddenly his eyes lit up and Ji Zi appeared in front of him.
Song Xiu was surprised and happy. He grabbed her and refused to let go, afraid that she would leave again, so he begged her to marry him.
The Jizi was sad and told him that she wanted to marry him too. She saw that the couple in the world were loving, and the life of men farming and women weaving was very envious, so she practiced hard. Dreaming of becoming a human being one day. Now, although he has become a human, he still has demonic energy. If he really wants to marry him, go to Hulong Mountain and find the Taoist priest with great magic. He can help him dispel the demonic energy and become a complete person.
After saying that, it disappeared.
Song Xiu was very happy after hearing this and was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
The next day, just dawn, I headed straight to the Tiger and Dragon Mountain...
After all the hardships, I finally found that Taoist temple.
, but the Taoist boy was stopped outside the door, and the Taoist priest didn't want to see him.
Song Xiu knelt on the ground, begging him for help in tears.
Taoist still ignored him.
After a while, it was raining heavily outside, and Song Xiu still knelt on the ground and refused to leave, like a chicken falling from the ground.
Taoist was finally moved by him, walked out, ordered someone to help him in, change his wet clothes, put on all his clothes, and bring him hot tea.
Taoist sighed and said, "That Jizi is envious of life in the world and has been practicing hard for a hundred years before she can become a human being. If she doesn't marry you, she will definitely become a big climate in the future. If she wants to dispel her evil spirit, she must have some flesh and blood, and the process is very painful. After you marry her, can you guarantee not to take a concubine? She is simple in character, she will only be kind to others, and will not harm others!"
Song Xiu swore to the sky that she will never let her down.
The old Taoist priest agreed.
handed him a elixir he made himself and asked him to take it to Ji Zi. No matter what sound he heard or what he saw, he had to resist going over. Otherwise, all previous efforts will be wasted.
Song Xiu remembers it firmly.
After a while, the rain stopped, and Song Xiu left here, feeling anxious along the way.
At night, Ji Zi was here, and Song Xiu handed her the pill.
Ji Zi was shocked and happy, and hurriedly took it. Not long after, the black air filled with it, and a shrill and creepy wailing sound came out, which made people frightened.
Ji Zi disappeared, and a huge pheasant appeared in front of her.
Song Xiu knew that it was Ji Zi dispelling the demonic energy. She felt very distressed, but she had no choice but to have no choice but to have red eyes, so she had to endure it.
After a while, the pheasant disappeared, and Ji Zi appeared in front of her, dying.
Song Xiu hurriedly picked her up, put it on the bed, and made a bowl of hot soup to feed it.
Not long after that, she slowly opened her eyes, saw him, and said in surprise: "I finally succeeded!"
Song Xiu cried with joy and nodded.
A few days later, the two got married.
That day, there were many people coming to congratulate him, which was very lively.
After getting married, the couple is extremely loving and envious.
Half a year later, under the recommendation of the prefect who appreciated him very much, he became the county magistrate of Lin County .
After taking office, he handled cases impartially and loved the people as his sons, and was deeply loved by the people.
Two years later, his wife gave birth to a fat and white boy, and Song Xiu was so happy that she couldn't stop talking.
After that, the family lived a stable and happy life.
