In the late Qing Dynasty, there were two families in Shandong, Ji and Liu. Both families were very poor and had to survive after planting a few acres of thin land. The Ji family had an only son, the nickname Dagou, and the Liu family had an only daughter, the nickname Huanzi. These two children have been playing together since childhood, as if they were the same person. The two adults of the two families got engaged when they saw that their two children were of similar age and had a better date.
When the big dog was 10 years old, the local area suffered from a locust plague and did not harvest grains of crops. Apart from fiddling with the muddy, Daddy can no longer do anything else. In this wasteland year, he had to carry a basket of beg for food, and Daddy can't afford to go to school.
From here, Big Dog knew a truth: it was hard to move without money, so she thought about how to make money day and night.
Huanzi's father worked as a hall in a restaurant in the town when he was young and earned a few dollars. During this deserted year, the whole family of three was moved to the town, and used the money as capital to open a pancake shop, and often returned to the old Ji family. Huanzi often goes to her mother-in-law’s house without a door, wash the slurry and repair the seams.
10 years later, the two children reached the age of getting married. Lao Ji's family has no money and is unable to handle weddings. The Liu family is quite generous and doesn’t want to give a simple dowry.

On the night of getting married, the big dog entered the bridal chamber. Because the two children were used to playing since childhood, Huanzi still joked with a smile: "This luggage is made by my parents' home. It's your face to get into this bed!"
The big dog felt that it would be shameful to not be able to get the bride price. After hearing this, he couldn't bear to eat, his face turned red, and he left the bridal chamber without saying anything. No one told me, and bought a boat ticket with the money from his relatives and neighbors to go to Guandong. I thought to myself, I won’t come back if I can’t make money.
Huanzi never expected that a joke made the big dog go away, but she was the only one in her heart. She thought that the big dog would go out to make a fuss and would come back in three or two months, so she didn't think about it anymore. She set up an empty room at Lao Ji's house, and served her parents-in-law outside, waiting for the big dog wholeheartedly.
But I didn’t know that the big dog had been gone for two years and there was no news! Huanzi thought: No matter what, I worshiped the world of the big dog and I am a member of the Ji family; even if the big dog dies outside, I will stay in the Ji family for the rest of my life.
The following year, my mother-in-law suffered from typhoid fever and died. Huanzi felt it was inconvenient to live with her father-in-law forever, so she returned to her parents' home. I came back two months later, washed the seams and left after I finished doing it. After another 3 years, Dagou still had no news.
Besides, the big dog broke into Guandong 5 years ago and fell in Andong. Anton is today's Dandong . During the Republic of China, many foreigners entered Andong, and Andong became a water and drought terminal for foreign countries. There were both domestic and foreign goods on the market, and there were also Chinese and foreign dresses.
The big dog, with the little ink in his belly, went into a department store and became a clerk. He made up his mind not to get rich and would not write letters to his home, let alone go home.
The shopkeeper of the department store is also from Shandong. Seeing that Dagou can write and calculate, he is diligent and honest, he was called an outer cabinet in the third year, with a 50 yuan a year of labor money, and he also has a reward of money during the holidays.
By the fifth year, the big dog looked at 300 yuan from his waist, which was considered a little wealth. He felt that his waist was straight, so he wanted to go home. First, he came to see his parents, and second, he showed off his wife and not underestimated my big dog. Then I wrote a letter to my family, and in addition to paying respects to the two elders, I also asked my wife.
soon came back and found out what was happening at home. The big dog cried bitterly and took two months off to go back to his hometown. Although he hasn't been home for 5 years, he is worried about Huanzi. This time he has money, it's time to settle his relationship with her.
rings are at my parents' home, helping my father run the small pancake shop. Although the shop is not big, the business is pretty good. Huanzi was scheming and gave his father an idea. After earning money, he stopped pancakes and opened a small restaurant.
On that day, just afternoon, a customer came to the restaurant. He wore a top hat on his head, a foreign costume, a clattering leather shoes on his feet, a pair of ink-black glasses, a mustache under his nose, and a leather bun in his hand.

Seeing that he was a rich man, my father hurriedly let him into the elegant seat. This man ordered two decent dishes and a pot of good wine.
Huanzi's father brought the wine and dishes and said, "Please use it for the guest."
turned around and was about to leave, and the guest stopped him: "Shopkeeper, I heard that you have a handsome daughter in your house. Please let her come out and pour me a cup of wine. I will give you 10 yuan and 10 yuan ."
Huanzi's father shook his head repeatedly and said, "Customer, this has never been the store." Rules."
guest said, "A cup of wine is 10 yuan. Today I spent money to meet your daughter. Calculate, 10 yuan is enough for your small restaurant to earn in half a year. How about it?"
Huanzi's father is an honest man. He thought to himself that if he doesn't look at his appearance, he is a handsome man. He is rich and powerful, and he is not easy to mess with. He has to ask his daughter to hide, so as to avoid trouble!
then laughed and said, "Customer, let me discuss with my daughter."
hurried into the kitchen and told Huanzi about this.
Huanzi thought to himself: Where did such a rogue rogue pop up? I have to check it out.
came to the front hall and looked through the crack in the private room for a while. Leng Ding opened the door and walked in and said, "Didn't the guest ask me to pour a cup of wine? OK, take out the 10 yuan of ocean first!"
The guest really took out 10 yuan of ocean.
Huanzi ignored the money, poured a cup of wine and said, "You have become a foreign dog. I know your bones even after peeling your skin."
Immediately afterwards, both hands stepped forward, pulled off the guest's glasses and beard, and the guest suddenly revealed his true form, which was Ji Dagou.
Big Dog blushed, Huanzi smiled and said, "Don't forget what I said yet? Come here to take revenge and show off your charity?"
Big Dog saluted her father-in-law and said, "I was just having fun, just playing."
Huanzi said, "It's a bit too much to play with this."
Big Dog's face turned redder, she didn't eat vegetables and didn't drink wine. He picked up his leather bag and wanted to leave. Huanzi's father said, "Let's go after dinner."
Big Dog hurriedly said, "I'm here first, I have to go home to see my dad."
Huanzi thought for a while and said, "Okay, you go first!"
asked the big Dog to put the 10 yuan ocean up again.
The big dog said, "This money is for your father to buy food." After that, he left.
After eating lunch, Huanzi brought a chicken and a bottle of wine, and walked to her husband's house. While walking, I thought, it seemed that the big dog had made a fortune and ran to me to show off his wealth and took revenge. Alas, the big dog took money too seriously! As soon as Huanzi entered her husband's house, she felt happy when she saw her father-in-law talking and laughing with the big dog.
Huanzi cleaned up the original bridal chamber, then went into the kitchen to cook a few dishes, boiled wine, and let the two of them chat while drinking. It was dark, Huanzi entered the bridal chamber first, thinking to himself, it was quite interesting, Dagou and I would have a second wedding chamber.
Big Dog walked in, Huanzi smiled and said, "You really don't have the spirit of a manly man. You take my joke as real. You have been a waiter for 5 years. When you come back, you pretend to be onions and garlic and put on a lot of money in front of me. What's more important than me? I really don't know how much shy it costs."
Big Dog asked while taking off your clothes, "How much have you earned for your father in the past few years?"
Huanzi still laughed and said, "That's a thousand eight hundred taels of silver!"
Big Dog said, "It's not me that I can earn 10 yuan a month by pouring a cup of wine, and you can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver!"
Big Dog's words were originally a joke, but Huanzi felt uncomfortable when he heard it.
Originally, she recognized the big dog through the crack in the door before going in to pour wine. If it were someone else, she would not do such a thing at all. Unexpectedly, she became the handle of the big dog's words, so she asked, "Are you playing tricks or taking what you said seriously?"
Big Dog said, "You are young and have good looks. Can people who are flirting with flowers and plants not make any decisions on you? After a while, you have money to give it to you, you can't hold on."
Huanzi never expected the big dog to say such words, and stayed out for a while. The big dog thought he had gone to the toilet and didn't care. After waiting for a long time, Huanzi hadn't seen her come back yet, she felt that it was not good. She hurriedly got up and woke up his father. She searched her in front of and behind the house, but she didn't see Huanzi's shadow!
Big Dog knew that it was his jokes that angered Huanzi, and she regretted it very much. I guess I was back to my parents' home, so I spread my legs and chased the town.It was only 40 minutes later when I arrived in town. No matter how you call the door knocker, it just doesn’t open.
It was dawn, and Huanzi's father came out and saw that the big dog was still sitting at the door, so he said, "Big Dog, have you just saved hundreds of dollars in the ocean? You are so generous and mocking. If you save thousands of dollars in the ocean, there will be no place in the world to put you on! When you put on the crown, put on a dragon robe, and come to my little restaurant, I will ask my daughter to pour 10 cups of wine for you." When the big dog heard this, his father-in-law also said such choking words, and his heart was cold. He wanted to go in and see Huanzi several times, but he asked Huanzi's father to block it.
until noon, Huanzi's father walked out of it and said, "Big Dog, Huanzi said, people are poor and have ambition, and people are rich and have a conscience. From now on, you walk on your Yangguan Road, and she walks on her single-plank bridge. Marrying a chicken and a dog is not as good as money."
Big Dog heard this and punched her twice in the head. It was not until now that he realized that money is not something that can be bought, nor is it that it can be sold for money, because money has taken apart a pair that has been as good as one person since childhood! He knew that this matter could not be remedied now, so he had to walk back listlessly; when he got home, he was scolded by his father again.
The big dog had no choice but to sell three thatched houses, clean up, and take his father to Andong.
Big Dog regrets this every day. He has feelings and righteousness for Huanzi. Since Huanzi is unwilling, he has made up his mind to never marry her for the rest of his life. Less than a year, my father fell seriously ill and spent all the hundreds of dollars he had saved, so he went to the west. In order to send my father a 100-yuan foreign debt. There is no capital to be rich! He lives alone in a department store, devoted himself to making a living.
The shopkeeper thought this young man was good, so he mentioned it several times, and the big dog said that he would pay off the debt before he could talk about it.
has not been used for two years to pay off the debt. The shopkeeper mentioned the media again, saying that he would promise his only daughter and recruit him as his retirement son-in-law. In this way, the large amount of property in the department store will become his, which is a good thing that is hard to find even with a lantern.
But the big dog said to the shopkeeper, "Even if there are ten or hundreds of department stores, I can't buy the true feelings of a woman!"
The shopkeeper asked him what he meant, and he told the reason why he never married for life, and said, "Huanzi and I grew up together, and she will not have anyone else in her heart. The quarrels are all because I mistakenly regard money as omnipotent. If I hurt her heart, I have to be worthy of her."
The shopkeeper asked, "What if Huanzi married someone?"
Big dog said, "I only have Huanzi in my heart. If she wants to marry someone, I will never marry forever."
This trick to support a son-in-law was put aside.
Another year has passed, and Dagou has been away from home for another 3 years. On this day, a new pancake shop was opened diagonally opposite the department store. The white cloth cover she picked out really wrote the words "Shandong Da Pancake".
When the big dog saw this guise, he remembered the big pancakes in his hometown and his saliva flowed down. That afternoon, he entered the pancake shop and wanted to have a meal of pancake rolls and green onions .
The pancake shop is not big, and several tables are placed in a room. There was a man in his 40s who quickly gave up his seat when he saw a customer. The seat was facing the kitchen. The big dog saw a woman in the kitchen, lowering her head and stalling pancakes. Her back looked like a ring. He stared at her eyes, and he didn't even hear the man asking him what he ate.
After a while, the woman who was spreading the pancake turned around and said, "Oh, it's Huanzi!" The big dog stood up "hungry", knocked down the stool and didn't care about helping him. He ran into the kitchen and shouted, "Huanzi!"
The woman who was selling pancakes was really Huanzi. She heard someone calling her, and when she looked closely, it was the big dog.
smiled, and just as he was about to say something, he pulled his face and put the batter-filled spoon in his hand on the head of the big dog, saying, "You are confused, I'll put it on you again, so that you can be confused!"
told the man in his 40s again, "He is the big dog with no conscience, drive it out!"
The man heard that he was a big dog, so he immediately glared at him and pushed it out.
Big Dog returned to the department store with a sad face, thinking that Huanzi must have gotten married, so she lay on the bed and started crying.This cry alarmed the shopkeeper and came over to ask what was wrong. The big dog said everything.
The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, let me touch the details of this matter."
From then on, when the pancake shop was not sold, the shopkeeper went to the pancake shop and chatted with the man in his 40s. Because they are all fellow villagers, the more they talk, the closer they get. Within a few days, the shopkeeper figured out the situation of the pancake shop.
It turns out that Huanzi's father died two years ago. Although Huanzi was a woman, she still supported the restaurant with her mother. After making some money, she sold the restaurant and told her mother to go to Guandong. My mother thought it was inconvenient for a woman to walk alone, so she called Huanzi, the uncle who had never seen a big dog, to accompany her.
My uncle wanted to make some money from Kanto, and he didn't know Huanzi's mind at all. Huanzi and his uncle came to Anton and wandered around for several months before renting three rooms opposite the department store and opening a pancake shop.
My uncle asked her, "How much money can I make when I open a pancake shop?"
Huanzi said, "I am attracting the dog."
My uncle thought that this was asking Ji Dagou to take revenge!
The shopkeeper strung together the previous and next things, and understood eight or nine times, and told the big dog about this situation.

asked the big dog again: "Huanzi opens a restaurant in Shandong to make money, why don't you do it?"
Big dog shook his head.
shopkeeper asked again: "Huanzi broke into Guandong, why did he come to Anton?"
big dog thought for a while and said, "Can you still look for me?"
shopkeeper asked again: "Why don't you make money and open a small pancake shop under your nose?"
"She wants to lead me over and take revenge."
shopkeeper smiled and said, "That spoon has already taken revenge, so please don't be confused. Huanzi is looking for you to enter the bridal chamber three times!"
big dog said, "I said it." The heartless words: marry a chicken and a dog, don’t marry a money."
The shopkeeper patted the big dog on the shoulder and said, "That's right. You used to treat money as a omnipotent thing, but Huanzi's heart couldn't buy it for no amount of money. She said, "No, you don't marry a money" and said you are confused, just be confused. Think about it, your surname is Ji and your name is Dagou, isn't it just a 'chicken' or 'dog'?"
The shopkeeper's advice, Dagou thought, yes, but he was embarrassed again, and said to the shopkeeper, "What do I say to her?"
The shopkeeper smiled and attached it to the big dog's ear and whispered a few words.
Big Dog happily took a shower, changed into a new dress, went into the pancake shop, and knelt down and said, "The big dog is not here to pay for it. The chicken (season) dogs are here, it is to beat or scold, it is up to you. Anyway, you said that you marry a chicken and a dog, the chicken is me, and the dog is also me. I understand, no matter how much money you cost, I can't buy your heart."
A few words made Huanzi cry and said, "You have been unscrupulous. I have been waiting for you for years. Do you still want to use a few stinky money to say that I am not chastity..."
's crying made my uncle stunned: Didn't Huanzi hate the big dog? Why are you so soft today?
heard Huanzi say again, "I came to Anton to find you. I just opened a pancake shop here, which attracted you."
asked Dagou to worship his uncle again, and his uncle understood.
Huanzi and Dagou went to the department store to meet the shopkeeper, said a few words of thanks and left.
The shopkeeper asked, "Where are you going?"
Huanzi said, "We have already paid homage to heaven and earth, it's time to go home."
They returned to the pancake shop, and that night, they came to the bridal chamber three times. After a few days, Dagou quit his department store to make a living, got his father's body, and went back to his hometown with Huanzi and his uncle.
