During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a wealthy family named Li in Baoding Prefecture, and the family runs a silk business. A wealthy family. There is a lot of land. There are only a lot of vacant houses.
That day, Mr. Li came back from collecting the accounts and encountered a golden fox at the door of his house. He saw that the fox was motionless and there were still blood on his body, and he felt compassion.
took the fox home and invited a doctor to treat it. It turned out that it had a leg injury, and it was probably injured by the trapped animal. Mr. Li takes good care of the fox every day with chicken, duck, fish and meat.
A few days later, several foxes of different sizes appeared at the door, but they just stood at the door and refused to leave.
Mr. Li was very strange and tentatively hugged the old fox. When the foxes at the door saw them, they came forward and chirped, and even bowed like humans. It was very funny.
House Li said: It was seriously injured and cannot leave for the time being. If you want, you can live in my house together.
Several foxes looked at each other and nodded again, as if they understood.
Mr. Li held the old fox and walked into an idle house tentatively and said: You can live here in the future, no one will disturb you.
left after saying that. In the days that followed, the doctor still asked the doctor to treat the old fox and put chickens and ducks in this yard every day. Even if the fox family lives in his house.
At first, Mr. Li was also a little scared. After all, foxes are beasts, and it would be his own sin if they hurt the people and poultry in the village.
But I secretly sent someone to observe for a while and found that the fox family was very responsible and rarely left the yard, and the neighbors on both sides did not lose anything. Then I slowly felt relieved.
After a while, I gradually got used to it with the fox family.
That winter, I don’t know what happened, the backyard caught fire and the house was burned. The antiques and jade artifacts inside were useless. Mr. Li stood in front of the ruins and cried loudly, and his lifelong efforts were turned into ashes.
The main house was burned, and the abandoned courtyard where only the fox family lived was useless and affected by the disaster. So Mr. Li, the family, had no choice but to discuss with the old fox whether he could free up several houses for the family to rest in peace. The old fox actually nodded, as if he understood Mr. Li's words. The fox descendants of his collar moved to the side room and signaled that Mr. Li's family could move to the main house.
Mr. Li's family has temporarily settled down. They want to make a comeback and continue doing business, but they have no capital, so they can only sigh.
At the morning of the next morning, Mr. Li got up and planned to clean up the yard. He found a small box at the door. When he opened it, he found that it was filled with precious jade artifacts. When the old fox saw him up, he cried forward and signaled Mr. Li to follow him.
The further you walk away from the village, and walk straight to Fox Cave deep in the mountains. There are many boxes of gold and silver jewelry inside. Looking at the age of time, many jewelry is covered with dust. At this time, the old fox stepped forward, chattering and making a move, and it turned out that he was asking Mr. Li to take these things.
Mr. Li took his jewelry down the mountain happily. With the capital, I started the cloth business again. The business is booming, even better than before.
rebuilt the house and specially built an independent yard specifically imitating the appearance of the Fox Cave, which is specially built for the fox family to live in. I send special people to clean and feed every day.
Beasts are also humans and know how to repay their kindness. What do you think?
