During the 4000th century of the Ming Dynasty, in Yingtianfu , there was a Liu Yuanwai who started his business by buying and selling grain. In the early years, there were constant border wars. He accumulated capital by transporting food to the border to gain the strength he is now.
Although Liu Yuanwai has been married for many years, he served in the north in the early years and later transported food to the border troops. Therefore, he has been married for many years and has only one daughter, named Liu Qingshi.
Now, Liu Qingshi is also at the age of talking about marriage. There are dozens of matchmakers who come to propose marriage, but none of them like it. This is a worry that Mr. Liu.
On a day, Liu Qingshi was asked by her father to see her all day long. The matchmakers and some young heroes who came to visit were very upset. Then he sneaked out with his maid and went to the street to relax.
happened to catch up with temple fair . There were people coming and going on the street, and it was very lively. On the street, a man of fifteen or sixteen was wearing tattered clothes. Although his clothes were torn, his eyes were bright. I thought he was a bandit on the road, so I asked the maid to go over and give him a few taels of silver.
Just after the maid left, an old Taoist walked towards her and said, "Miss, can you recognize that person?" Liu Qingshi replied, "I have never seen it before." The old Taoist said again, "It's amazing, fate is really wonderful. Today, the old Taoist has a fate with you, so he revealed a trace of the secret. That person will be your husband soon." After said that, he left with a smile.
After a while, the maid came back and asked, "Miss, isn't Miss?" Liu Qingshi came to his senses and hurriedly asked, "When he came back, did he see an old white-haired Taoist?" The maid replied, "No, I saw the lady smiling foolishly!" When Liu Qingshi turned around, the figure of the old Taoist had long disappeared.
And the beggar in the distance looked at the few taels of silver in his hand and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm really treated as a beggar. If I go back, I'll be seen by my father. I'll have a lot of money." Fortunately, I have these few taels of silver, and I'll go to find my father after I finish packing it.
A few days later, on the zodiac festival, Liu Qingshi, Liu Yuanwai and his mother Wang, had breakfast. Suddenly, he heard that the housekeeper was coming to report: "Master, happy events, great joy!"
Liu Yuanwai put down his bowl and chopsticks and scolded: "It's so panicked, what kind of morality? Happy events? What kind of joy? Is it worth you to do this?" The housekeeper held the bow in his hand and said: "Master, look." Liu Yuanwai took the bow and looked at it, frowned and said: "New Prime Minister? Ye? The prefect of the prefect returned to Beijing to report his work. He knew, but what happened to this prefect of the prefect?"
couldn't figure it out, so he hurriedly said, "Let's go, go, go, go, go and welcome the new magistrate with me!" When he walked to the door, Yuanwai Liu saw that the magistrate Ye looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it. Or Yuanwai still patted his shoulder and said, "What, Brother Liu, I don't know me anymore. Back then, when you were a soldier, I was your squad leader. Why, Brother Liu was so forgetful, and didn't invite me in to sit in?"
At this time, Yuanwai Liu slapped his head and said, "You are Captain Ye. Back then, you were not... hurry up, please come in, butler, make tea, and take out the tea I treasure." The butler responded quickly.
Prefect Ye said, "This matter is a long story. Today, I came for another thing. Didn't you say that our two families are going to be in-laws? In the past two days, I have heard that the threshold of your family will be trampled by the matchmaker of Yingtian Mansion, which makes Ai like it?"
Man Liu said, "Oh, I'm so worried. There is really no one who can satisfy my little girl." Hearing this, Prefect Ye smiled happily. , said, "That's good. I'm here for this matter today. I want to ask my incompetent son for a kiss. A gangster. I haven't come in yet. Come over to see your Uncle Liu." After Ye Chen came in, he bowed to Uncle Liu and said, "Go to Uncle Liu, Hello Uncle Liu."
Mr. Liu looked up and down at the side, and was really satisfied, but he still pretended to be difficult and said, "In this matter, I still need to ask my little girl's opinion. After all, I am the only little girl." The prefect Ye smiled and said, "That's nature, that's nature."
Liu Qingshi had been eavesdropping outside the door for a long time. When he walked into the door, he could see at a glance that this was not the little beggar from that day? He couldn't help but say in a lost voice: "Little beggar, you don't remember me, I even asked the maid to give you a few taels of silver. "You must not be rude. This is your Uncle Ye's son. "Mr. Liu said.
"It's okay, it's okay, so you know each other? That's easy to say, Brother Liu, then you see this marriage? "Magistrate Ye said. Yuanwai Liu smiled and said, "Then, it's up to the brother to decide. "
At this time, Liu Qingshi thought about all that day, what the old Taoist said to her, but unexpectedly, it came true.
A few days later, they got married as they wished. On that day, an old Taoist seemed to be in the crowd and asked for a cup of wedding wine.
