During the Qing Dynasty, there was a Majia Village in the outskirts of Hejian City. At the west end of the village, there was a family named Xu Dashan. The head of the family was named Xu Dashan. He was a genuine farmer. His wife Zhang was virtuous and kind, and he was a good family.
The husband and wife have a son and a daughter. The son is named Xu Chang. He has not married yet when he is in his twentieth year. My daughter Xianghe is about fourteen years old, with willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and pink face and peach blossoms.
On this day, Xu Dashan returned home after finishing the farm work and scooped up a scoop of cold water from the water tank, "Gudong, Gudong" and drank it all. He didn't bother to rest, so he greeted his wife and drove a few more little lambs out.
In March, the first warmth is cold, and the tender green grass buds have already emerged. Xu Dashan drove the sheep to the river beach to eat grass, and then found a place to leeward and sat down to rest. The sun shone on his body warmly, and suddenly a sleepy feeling came, and he closed his eyes in a daze.
I don’t know how long it took, but a crisp sound of bells rang in the distance. Xu Dashan woke up from his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he saw a young young man riding a thin donkey slowly climbing to the stone bridge.
I heard from the old man in the village that this bridge has a history of hundreds of years. It has been passed through storms and rains and has long been engraved with the mark of time. The stone bridge is about a hundred feet long and the bridge body is in a dilapidated manner. The width of the remaining bridge deck is less than two feet.
Locals say that this stone bridge is too dangerous and would rather go by than pass through it. Xu Dashan guessed that the man must be from another place, otherwise he would not have risked his life to cross the bridge.
He waved his hand and shouted to remind the man to get off the bridge quickly. But he knew that he was too far away and the man couldn't hear it at all. When he realized that he was in danger and was in a dilemma.
The donkey realized that there was danger and stopped moving forward, and was so scared that he screamed "ah-uh". The man was panicked and wanted to jump down and drive the donkey back, but he fell down the stone bridge with one foot. He only heard a "bang" sound, and he fell heavily on the riverbed and couldn't move.
How can you stand by and watch if you are in trouble? Xu Dashan ran a few steps to come to the front. Seeing the man lying on the ground and unconscious, he hurried back to bring rescue soldiers. Then, he and his son Xu Chang carried the man home.
Half an hour later, he opened his eyes and was very excited to see his legs wrapped in white cloth. He patted the bed with his hands and cried loudly, "It's over, this life is over. I'm sorry that I have studied hard for more than ten years and ended up like this."
The man's name is Han Bingxiang, from Qingzhou Prefecture, his father is a blacksmith, and his mother works as a chef in a wealthy family. The couple saved money to support their son's studies, hoping that he would one day be able to pass the exam and shine on his family.
Han Bingxiang lived up to expectations and passed the exams in a row. Last year, he won the top spot in the provincial examination. This time I went to Beijing to take the exam, I was confident, but I didn’t expect that I would encounter an unexpected accident on the way.
It doesn’t matter if you miss this test. If you are disabled, you will never be able to become an official in this life. For Han Bingxiang, wouldn’t it ruin a bright future?
Although Xu Dashan is a wild man, he also knows how important scientific research is to a scholar. The doctor just came to his house and helped Han Bingxiang bandage his wound, saying that his injury was not optimistic and that if he didn't make a good deal, he would become a cripple.
Xu Dashan didn't dare to say it directly, afraid that Han Bingxiang would not accept this reality, but just advised him to stay with peace of mind to heal. Han Bingxiang looked at his unscrupulous legs and cried loudly.
In a blink of an eye, the examination period was coming, and scholars from all over the country gathered in the capital to participate in the imperial examination. Han Bingxiang lay on the hospital bed and sighed, and Zhang was mixed with emotion when he saw this.
Respect the old and the old of others, and the young of others. Zhang was illiterate and did not understand any great principles at all. However, seeing that Han Bingxiang was not a few years older than his son Xu Chang, he treated him as his own child.
In order to get his illness cured as soon as possible, Zhang killed the old hens who laid eggs at home to stew the soup one by one. The whole family was reluctant to drink, so they were all left to Han Bingxiang to take care of their health.
One morning, neighbor Wang Ersao came to visit her house and accidentally talked to Zhang about her nephew Lu Hong. Not long ago, he went to Beijing to take the exam and was a senior high school Jinshi. He was awarded the position of Qinghe County Magistrate by the court.
The nephew became an official, and Wang Ersan's face was shining. She smiled happily and talked endlessly, fearing that the world would not know. She sat in the east room and said, "Han Bingxiang was lying in the west room and listening, the speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional."
After Wang Ersao left, Han Bingxiang seemed to be stimulated. He didn't eat or drink for a day, and there was no smile on his face. That night, Zhang boiled the medicine and sent his daughter to Han Bingxiang for delivery.
The door of the room was closed, Xianghe wanted to go forward and knock on the door, but found that Han Bingxiang was sitting up and writing, wiping his tears while writing. Xianghe was not old, but she was very smart. Seeing that Han Bingxiang was abnormal, she suddenly had an ominous premonition.
She turned around and wanted to go back and tell her parents that she happened to see the eldest brother walking out of the room. The brother and sister were looking inside through the crack in the door, and saw Han Bingxiang carefully stuffing the written thing under the pillow, covering his face and crying.
"The big thing is not good, this nerd may not be able to think about it. It seems that he wrote a suicide note and planned to commit suicide," Xu Chang said softly.
"Since we will fulfill his wish, I want to see how brave this nerd is!" Xianghe said this and scared her elder brother. The two whispered softly and smiled at each other.
After a moment, Xu Chang went to the woodshed to get a big knife, and deliberately ran to Han Bingxiang's window to sharpen the knife. Xianghe stood aside and said, "Brother, sharpen the knife faster. I haven't eaten meat for a long time. I want to eat meat buns tonight."
"He has been raising food and drink for more than a month at our house, and after all, he has grown a few kilograms of meat. After a while, I put on an iron pot, you steam buns, I stew meat, and our whole family is ready to make tooth sacrifice to ." Xu Chang grinded his knife "stop" and said in a low voice.
Xianghe pierced the window paper and looked into the house. She saw Han Bingxiang with panic on his face, looking out the door. She couldn't help but cover her face and smiled, and continued, "I not only want to eat meat buns, but also want to eat meatballs . By the way, I remember that my father also made barbecue for us. The meat was roasted on the outside and tender on the inside, so fragrant!"
siblings, and I said it very enthusiastically, completely ignoring the feelings of others. Han Bingxiang could no longer sit still and walked hard with his crutches to open the door.
He said with a gloomy face: "We know people but not yours. I didn't expect you to be so cruel. I'm not afraid of death, I just hope to keep a whole body!"
Xianghe smiled mysteriously, grabbed the sharp knife from Xu Chang's hand, walked to Han Bingxiang viciously, and said angrily: "No matter how cruel we are, we are not as cruel as you. Our parents raised you with great hardship, but you actually abandoned them cruelly. Where is the filial piety? Since you don't want to live, I will fulfill your wish!"
Han Bingxiang was moved when he heard this, and sat on the ground and cried loudly. When Xu Dashan and his wife heard the crying, they hurried out to check the situation. Seeing the sharp knife in their daughter's hand, they couldn't help asking, "What the hell is going on?"
"The daughter is just the beauty of adulthood. This nerd doesn't want to live anymore. I want to help him." Xianghe finished speaking, she glanced at Han Bingxiang sitting on the ground and smiled.
"You two rebellious sons, if you scare the young master, let me see how I deal with you!" Xu Dashan glared at his son and said, "Why are you still standing there? Help the young master up!"
Han Bingxiang was ashamed, and went into the house to take out his suicide note, tore it to pieces in front of everyone, "Body body" My hair and skin are taken by my parents, and I dare not hurt them. It is the beginning of filial piety. I am sorry to my parents, and I am even more sorry for your life-saving grace. I have read the books for more than ten years in vain! "
" The young master's book is not in vain. It is because you are talking, and the little girl is too envious. After Xianghe finished speaking, she made a face.
Han Bingxiang burst into tears and smiled and said, "Oh! It seems that your meat buns and meatballs can’t be eaten! "Everyone burst into laughter when he heard this.
hurt for a hundred days. Under the care of the Xu family, Han Bingxiang's injuries had been healed, but he limped when he walked. Thinking of his parents at home, he planned to set off and return to his hometown immediately.
Before leaving, he gave the silver he carried on his body to express his feelings. Xu Dashan and his wife insisted on not accepting it and let him take it on their body as a mess. Han Bingxiang was moved and could not speak.
Xu Chang took the donkey and handed the reins to Han Bingxiang's hand. The donkey was raised to be fat and strong. The whole family sent him to the entrance of the village, and Han Bingxiang turned back three times on his way back.
On this day, Xu Dashan received a letter and went to a private school to ask for help from Liu Xiucai. It turned out that the letter was written by Han Bingxiang. When he learned that he was home smoothly and everything was fine, the whole family finally felt relieved.
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed, Xu Chang has married and married Hanmei from the neighboring village as his wife. After marriage, his wife gave birth to a son and named Fusheng. Xianghe is also at the age of marriage, and Xu Dashan and his wife began to arrange their daughter's marriage.
On this day, a matchmaker came to the Xu family and said There was a scholar named Ouyang Xun in the city asking her to come to propose marriage and wanted to marry Xianghe. Xu Dashan was deeply surprised and thought this matter was unreliable, so he refused the marriage on the spot.
Marriage matters emphasize the equality of the family. The Xu family has been farmers for generations. Ouyang Xun's family is prominent. Xu Dashan dared not be high. He was worried that his daughter would be bullied after marrying, so he was not optimistic about this marriage.
Matchmaker complained that the Xu couple was stubborn and that others wanted to fly to the branches to be phoenixes, but they had a good opportunity but didn't know how to cherish it. She didn't say anything but said a lot. Seeing that the Xu couple was firm in their attitude, she had to leave angrily.
The next day, the matchmaker came again with a tough bullet. If Ouyang Xun's money had not played a role, she would never have stepped into the Xu family. People walked to the high place and water flowed to the low place. She had protected the media for most of her life, and she had never encountered this situation before.
There are all kinds of strange things in the world. The matchmaker was eye-opening. If she let her blow Ouyang Xun to the sky, the Xu Dashan and his wife were still unmoved and did not agree to the marriage.
As soon as the matchmaker left, she saw an official sedan chair coming to the door of the Xu family. The man walked straight into the yard from the sedan chair and shouted loudly: "Brother Xu, I'm here to propose marriage for Ouyang Xun! "
The Xu couple saw a group of officials walking into the door and panicked, thinking that the government came to rob the kiss. The two ran out of the house in panic and were shocked when they saw the man, "Hey! Isn’t this Mr. Han? "
" A bold and unruly man, why don't you kneel down when you see the county master? "A official stared at the eyes of the crowd and shouted loudly. When the Xu couple heard this, they were both surprised and happy, and quickly kowtowed and kowtowed.
County Magistrate Han stepped forward to help the two of them, turned his head to look at the followers, and scolded him, "Don't be rude. If I hadn't been the benefactor who helped me, how could I be like Han Bingxiang today! ”
It turned out that after Han Bingxiang returned home, his legs failed to recover as before for a long time. He was discouraged and could only find another way out.There is a wealthy businessman named He Yukun in the city. He has accumulated gold and jade at home and owns thousands of hectares of fertile land.
Mr. He has two sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter Cuiping is about sixteen years old. The two sons are still young. The oldest is twelve years old, and the youngest is only five or six years old.
In ancient times, he emphasized agriculture and neglected business. Although Mr. He was rich, he always felt inferior. He put all his hopes on his children, so he wanted to spend money to hire a teacher to teach his son how to read and read, hoping that a literati could be proud of his family.
Han Bingxiang came to He's mansion by someone and became a teacher. Mr. He also asked the maid to clean up a room for several children to study. Since he came to He Mansion, there will be aloud reading sounds in the yard every day.
Han Bingxiang looks handsome and full of knowledge. Miss Cuiping suddenly felt admiration when she saw it. Over time, the two fell in love with each other. Mr. He was happy in his eyes and intended to fulfill the lovers.
Not long after, the Han family asked someone to come to propose marriage, and Mr. He readily agreed to the marriage. Half a year later, Han Bingxiang happily married Miss Cuiping as his wife, and the lovers finally got married.
After a year of marriage, the Han family had many happy events. First, Cuiping gave birth to her son Qingyun, and later Han Bingxiang's legs miraculously returned to normal. The whole family was happy, and the father-in-law was also happy. Seeing that his son-in-law recovered from illness, he had other plans.
I heard that in order to increase fiscal revenue, the court introduced a "official donation" system, and could become a magistrate if it costs 4,000 taels of silver. Mr. He was rich and arrogant. Seeing that his son-in-law had great ambitions and was a dignified juren, he waved his hand to donate a seventh-rank magistrate to Han Bingxiang.
Han Bingxiang was involved in his relationship and was deliberately transferred to Hejian Mansion to work, just to find Xu Dashan's family and repay their life-saving grace. As for Ouyang Xun, he was not a playboy, but Han Bingxiang's favorite disciple. He knew this person well, so he deliberately matched up this marriage.
Xu Dashan and his wife learned the whole story and couldn't stop smiling. One was to be happy for Han Bingxiang, and the other was to be happy for his daughter. A county master made the decision, and the couple readily agreed to the marriage.
Several people were talking, when Xianghe returned from outside and almost fell off when she saw Han Bingxiang. After the greetings, she smiled and said, "Since you are here, you have to have a meal before leaving. Whatever the county master wants to eat, just say, little girl, go and prepare it now!"
"I want to eat meat buns, meatballs, and by the way, there is also a roasted and tender barbecue on the outside!" Han Bingxiang finished speaking, laughing loudly, bursts of laughter and bursts of joy came from the room...
Conclusion:
Life will not be smooth in this life, and it is inevitable to encounter setbacks. Han Bingxiang's life experience tells us that when encountering difficulties, don't be discouraged, let alone have the idea of suicide. I believe that the sun always faces life after the storm. If you face life with a strong heart, you will definitely see the rainbow!
"The body and hair are affected by parents, and they dare not hurt them. This is the beginning of filial piety." In the eyes of the ancients, if children do not cherish their bodies and health, they will be the greatest unfilial piety to their parents.
You often see some news reports on the Internet. Some young people are under great pressure and are unable to think about it for a moment, which is really regrettable! Especially now that the epidemic is serious, many people cannot work normally and are carrying mortgages and car loans. You can imagine how much pressure it is.
No matter how hard it is, you must choose to be strong. Life is life with bitterness and sweetness, and life is joy and sorrow.Only by enduring all the bitterness can you taste the sweetness of life! Friends, come on!
