Qing Dynasty , there was a fisherman named Aping in Mozhou. He and his wife Zhou were very loving and were a famous model couple from all over the world.
A Ping has to go out to sea to fish all year round, and it is common not to go home for ten days and half a month. Zhou is not only beautiful, but also very virtuous. When Aping went out to sea, she would take care of children and the elderly at home, and do some needlework to subsidize her family.
With the hard work of the two, they lived a comfortable life. But who would have thought that a monk who returned to the secular world would actually have the idea of Zhou.
Their neighbor is a monk named Akui, who was driven out of the temple by the presidency because his six senses are not pure. When Akui saw that Zhou was beautiful, Aping was often away from home, and sometimes he would follow her when Zhou bought needles and threads.
Zhou Shi always felt that Akui had bad intentions for him, but it was difficult for neighbors to say it openly.
One day, Zhou was drying clothes in the yard, and Akui looked at Zhou from his yard, and was having a beautiful dream.
"You old guy, don't go out to work." Meimeng was broken by his wife Huang.
When Akui returned to secular life, he had no money on his body, and his family was barely left behind. There was no big daughter in the village who was willing to marry him. Only the widowed Huang was willing to live with him. In addition, Huang had some small money on his hands, Akui agreed.
Akui turned around and looked at the old and yellow Huang, feeling very unhappy. Huang was not a good person to mess with, so Akui had no choice but to put away the tools and prepare to go out to work.
Akui is a carpenter, but his skills are average, and few people in the village look for him, so he can only go to the neighboring village to find work.
people left, their hearts were still on Zhou. Zhou's every frown and smile was deeply engraved in his mind. He made up his mind to find a way to hug the beauty. A few days later, he came up with a solution.
What Huang didn’t know was that Akui had an old lover in the neighboring village, a widow, and everyone called her Widow Zhang. Because her husband's family was a wealthy family, her husband's family did not allow her to remarry, so she bought her a large mansion and delicious food for her at her request.
Originally, Akui was tired of Widow Zhang, but in order to get Zhou, he had to come to find her.
Wife Zhang was very happy when she saw Akui coming to her home and said coquettishly: "Damn, you haven't seen her for a long time. Why do you think of her today?"
Akui felt disgusted, but he still pretended to be excited to hold her in his arms. Then the two of them did a husband-and-wife. Afterwards, Akui suddenly said to Widow Zhang: "I fell in love with the wife of the neighbor fisherman. As long as you are willing to help me, I will come often in the future. Today you go to her house and do what I said."
Wife Zhang was silent for a while after hearing this and agreed. After Akui agreed to Widow Zhang, he told her about his plan.
The next morning, Widow Zhang came to the door of Zhou's house. Widow Zhang asked Zhou if she could ask for some water.
Zhou enthusiastically brought her a cup of hot tea and invited her to rest at home. The two had a good time. After a while, Widow Zhang whispered, "Have your husband been home?"
Zhou was very puzzled and replied, "He has not come back yet, maybe it will take a few more days."
Widow Zhang continued, "If he comes back, he will ask him to worship in the temple."
Zhou quickly asked, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?"
Widow Zhang said, "I didn't want to say it at first, but you are a kind person, so I won't hide it from you. There is a large dark cloud on the roof of your house. This is an ominous sign. I'm afraid I'm plagued by evil ghosts under the water, so I'd better go to the temple to worship."
This involves her husband's life. I would rather believe it or not, so Zhou decided to go to the temple to worship immediately without knowing it.
And Akui had already been ready to wait for Zhou at the foot of the mountain. After Zhou worshipped the Buddha, he met Akui on the way home.
Zhou asked him, "Why are you here? You are here?"
Akui sighed and said, "I dreamed last night that a white-bearded immortal told Lao Ji that there was a man in the village who was afraid that he would encounter an unexpected accident recently. I asked the immortal which man was, but the immortal didn't say it directly, just said that the man's wife would go up the mountain to worship Buddha today. "
Zhou knew that Akui was a secular monk. Although he felt that he was unreliable, how could he know that he would go up the mountain to worship Buddha today? In addition, today is not a special day, and she is the only one who worships Buddha.
Even though he was very scared, Zhou still pretended to be calm and said: "Don't talk nonsense, my husband is fine." "
Aqui pretended to sigh and said, "It is because my virtuous man is not at home all year round that we should pay more attention. I also specifically asked the immortal how to resolve it. He said that he would hang a ham at home and wait for his brother to come home and share the ham with him to escape. But this can only be a temporary measure. "As he said that, he took out the ham from the basket.
When Zhou saw that the ham was well marinated, he said, "If you want to sell ham, don't curse us. I bought the ham, you can't talk nonsense anymore. "
Akui replied, "You brother and sister, you really wronged me. On weekdays, I often give me fish and meat, and I'll give you this ham. You must not tell this matter, especially if you don’t want him to know it. The so-called secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. "
When Zhou heard that he had free leg guards, he naturally followed up happily. After returning home, everything was as Akui said.
A month later, Aping finally came back and saw that there was a ham at home, so he asked, "When did you fall in love with eating cured meat? This ham costs a lot of money. "
Zhou still remembered that he couldn't ask Akui and said that he couldn't ask Aping to know, so he lied and said, "One day I picked up a few taels of broken silver while washing clothes by the river, so I bought the ham with the broken silver. I was not willing to eat it. Let's stir-fry some ham tonight. "
A Ping said happily after hearing this: "Then I'll go buy some wine and let's have a drink tonight. "
Half a month later, one night Aping wanted to go out to sea again in the autumn. He reminded Zhou: "I will go out to earn some money tomorrow and ask you mother and mother to live a good life. You can wait for me at home, and I will be back soon. "
Zhou's family was worried that Aping would not eat well, and he always thought about what Akui said, so he asked Aping to bring the ham with him.
And all this was seen by Akui in the dark. The next morning, he rushed to Widow Zhang's house and said, "That little bastard is leaving. You have to deal with him no matter what you are today. "
Zhang Widow smiled and said, "Don't worry if I do my business." "So Akui sent Widow Zhang to Aping's place where he passed by.
. After Akui Aping left, he guessed that the time was almost over, so he came to Zhou's house and said, "Brother, are you at home?" ”
Zhou walked out and said, “What’s wrong with you? Aping has gone to sea. "
Akui pretended not to know, "I am still one step late. Yesterday, the immortal asked me to dream again, saying that my brother's misfortune this time is so lucky and he needs to carry red cloth with him to resolve it. "As he said that, he took out the red cloth that had been prepared long ago.
When Zhou heard Akui's words, he didn't have time to think about it, so he took the red cloth to chase her husband. Unexpectedly, he encountered the scandal of her husband and Widow Zhang on the road, and went home and cried.
Seeing Zhou coming back crying, Akui knew that his plan had been accomplished. So he pretended to ask: "What's wrong with your brother and sister? "
Zhou said crying, "If you want him to die, I will never care about him again. ”
Akui pretended to think about it and said, “Is it because it’s a vixen? "
Zhou looked at him in surprise and said, "How do you know? "
Akui pretended to regret and said, "The Great Immortal told me that my brother would be plagued by vixen. I thought that your husband and wife had such a good relationship and that my brother and sister were so virtuous. I thought it was the Great Immortal who was joking with me, but I didn't expect it to be true. "
Zhou was stunned and cried louder after a while. Seeing this, Akui said, "I have a way to make him change his mind."
Akui saw Zhou looking at him blankly, and then said, "Tonight, you go to the Land Temple to drink a bowl of holy water. You can meet the Great Immortal in your dream at night. No matter what the Great Immortal asks, you agree. The Great Immortal will tell you how to do it. "
At night, Akui gave Zhou a long-prepared sweat medicine. Shortly after Zhou drank it, he saw a white-haired old man in a daze. The white-haired old man told her that he was a great immortal.
white-haired old man attacked Zhou. Zhou wanted to break free and did he have the strength to do it, and he was dizzy. He wanted to ask the Great Immortal how to solve it, but he always felt that he couldn't speak.
Afterwards, Zhou heard the Great Immortal say, "You go to the land every three days, and for half a year, I guarantee that your husband will obey you. You are the only one in your heart, and you will live a long life. "
When Zhou woke up, it was dawn. Zhou believed in what Daxian said.
A month later, Aping went home. Since the last incident, he felt that he had no face to see his wife again, so he went to find his mother first.
When his mother saw him come back, she cried and said, "Son, you are finally back. Your wife often goes out with the old monk next door. Sometimes it's evening when she comes back. Every time she comes back, she has to take a shower. When you come back, you have to take care of her. "
Until this time, Aping remembered that Akui often talked about Widow Zhang's charm in front of him, and remembered that Zhou suddenly caught up that day, and understood that this was Akui's trick.
So, Aping planned to secretly follow his wife. On this day, Zhou went to the Land Temple as usual. Shortly after Aping saw Akui drink a bowl of water for his wife, his wife followed him into a house. After Zhou fell asleep in a daze, the white-haired old man appeared.
Just as the white-haired old man was about to attack Zhou, Aping rushed up and yelled: "You old man, you actually have the idea of hitting my wife, I have to kill you. "
Akui heard Aping's voice and quickly begged for mercy, but Aping's axe had already chopped his neck. But in the end, reason defeated his anger, and Aping grabbed Akui to the county government.
Agong made an appointment with his mother before leaving. Once he saw that he captured the thief, he would take Zhou home.
Happy hours later, Zhou woke up and found that he was lying at home and remembered nothing, which scared her to jump Come.
County magistrate was very angry when he learned about Akui's actions. Akui admitted all the mistakes. The county magistrate sentenced him to exile on the frontier.
After Aping returned home, he told his wife all the things. Zhou regretted it. Aping also knew that all this was caused by him and kept asking Zhou to forgive him.
In the end, the couple decided to let go of their past grudges and live a good life in the future. But can the broken mirror really reunite?
