In the early years, there was Yunguan Town outside Liaozhou City. It was adjacent to the official road and next to the inn. It was densely populated and very prosperous. At the east end of the town lived a family named Feng. The head of the family was Feng Da, his wife Zhao, and their son Feng Wang.
Feng Da is a salesman, and his business is pretty good. Zhao, who was born in a farm family, grows some vegetables in the yard and sells them in the western market. The couple works hard and is able to live comfortably.
Feng Wang is smart and clever. He studied in Mengtang for three years. At the age of twelve, he followed his father on the streets and learned how to make a living.
Youdao means that there are unforeseen circumstances, and people have misfortunes and misfortunes. When Feng Wang was seventeen years old, his father Feng Da fell ill and died. Zhao was so distraught that he suffered a stroke, unable to speak and bedridden.
A few years ago, Feng Da had arranged a marriage for his son. The woman's family name was Li, and she opened a tofu shop in Xishi. The Li family was a snob, disliking poverty and loving the rich. Seeing the decline of the Feng family, they immediately regretted the marriage.
suffered repeated blows, which caused Feng Wang's temperament to change drastically. He was not interested in business. When he went out to do business, he just put his burden there and did not hawk. Fortunately, the nearby villagers knew him and trusted him. Although his business was much worse than before, he could still make a living.
Seeing Feng Wang like this, his relatives and friends tried to persuade him one after another, hoping that he could cheer up, but Feng Wang remained unmoved. As time went by, everyone stopped talking.
Feng Wang was a filial son. He served his mother very attentively. When he went out to sell goods, he asked his neighbors to take care of him. He cleaned his mother's bedroom every day and often changed and washed his mother's clothes.
Feng Wang tidied his mother neatly, but he did not clean up the other houses and yards. Things were scattered in the house, and the yard was overgrown with weeds, making it impossible to get in during spring and summer.
was even less particular about himself. He was unkempt and slovenly. His clothes were rarely washed once every few months, let alone his shoes and socks. Washing his feet once every six months was considered diligent. Over time, the neighbors called him "Feng Da Lazy" behind his back.
Although Feng Wang is lazy, he is upright and kind-hearted. This is true of his father. Neighbors will try their best to help if they have big or small problems. If anyone has difficulties, he will also help.
In the blink of an eye, it has been three years since Feng Da passed away, and Feng Wang is already twenty years old. Zhao's illness has improved somewhat, and she can slowly get off the kang and move around the house a few steps, but her speech is still unclear and she is still in a trance.
Compared with his mother, Feng Wang was in extremely bad shape. He was unshaven and in his twenties, he looked to be thirty. Relatives and friends had proposed marriage to him, but the woman thought he was poor and lazy and did not want to get married.
In the early summer of this year, Feng Wang went to sell goods in a neighboring town. The sun was very hot that day, and he fell into laziness again. He found a small forest, put his burden aside, and lay down to sleep under the tree. When he was meeting Duke Zhou, , he was awakened by the noise.
Feng Wang stood up and walked toward the crowd. He saw four men over there surrounding a girl. The four men had lewd smiles on their faces and clearly had bad intentions. The woman was about seventeen or eighteen years old, but she showed no fear. She had a stick in her hand and was beating her around, but the four men couldn't get close at the moment.
"What a hot woman!" Feng Wang couldn't help but blurt out.
Although the woman is fierce, she is a prostitute after all. There is no way she can fight against four young men. One of them took advantage of her and grabbed the wooden stick. The other three swarmed up and pushed the woman to the ground, intending to do something wrong.
Although Feng Wang was lazy, he was an upright and upright man. How could he stand idly by when he saw this? He shouted and rushed forward, preparing to rescue the woman.
The four men were very angry when their good deeds were disturbed. They left the woman and rushed over. Feng Wang was thin and weak. Not to mention four men, even one of them was no match for him.
The four men swarmed up and knocked Feng Wang down. One of them said: "The dog is meddling with the mouse, pick him up and throw him into the ditch to feed the wolves."
After saying this, several people held Feng Wang's hands and pulled his legs to lift Feng Wang up. Unexpectedly, when several people got close, they raised their noses at the same time, and two of them turned their heads and vomited.
The other one covered his mouth and nose and turned away. The leader also covered his nose and said: "This guy smells really bad. Did he just crawl out of the latrine?""
Feng Wang's mind was spinning fast. He rolled on the spot when he saw this scene. He picked up the stick and hit several people headless and faceless. At this moment, voices came from the distance. They should be farmers or businessmen passing by. Seeing that the situation was not good, the four people jumped into the woods and escaped. .
The woman was out of danger and hurriedly came over to give Feng Wang a gift and said, "Thank you for saving me. Please tell me your surname. I will repay you someday."
Feng Wang stood up, straightened his clothes, and replied, "You're welcome, girl. It's just a small effort. Where are you going?" How dangerous it is to go on the road alone!
The woman picked up the baggage on the ground and said, "My family is gone. I'm going to Sanyuan Town to visit my relatives. I don't want to meet bad people here." "
" Sanyuan Town is still ten miles away from here? " As soon as Feng Wang finished speaking, a carriage came from behind, and the driver was a man in his thirties.
Feng Wang shouted at the man: "Brother Fu, where are you going? This girl is going to Sanyuan Town to visit her relatives. She was almost in danger just now. If you are on your way, please take her there. "
This handlebar's name is Chen Fu, and he lives in the same town as Feng Wang. He reined in the reins and said, "I'm going to the city, and I happened to pass by there. The girl got in the car, and I'll be there in time for two cups of tea. "
The woman wanted to ask Feng Wang his name, but at this time Feng Wang had already turned around and left. After the woman got in the car, she asked, "Excuse me, Brother Fu. What did you call the eldest brother just now?" "
" Him! Haha, his name is Feng Dazlan, who is famous far and wide. "After saying this, Chen Fu waved his whip and the carriage galloped away.
Feng Wang left quickly just now because he was in danger and was a little anxious. It was convenient to run deep into the woods. After he came out, he picked up the burden and found a nearby village to sell goods. The town was a bit far away from here and he was too lazy to go.
Feng Wang was trying to help others. He did it often, so he didn't take it to heart and forgot about it after three or five days.
Let's not mention Feng Wang. Let's just talk about the woman. Her surname was Liu and her name was Yuhe. She was from Wuxiang, Qinzhou. Her hometown was hit by a disaster and there was a plague. She was the only one left in the family.
Yuhe's mother's surname was Cai, and her cousin Yuan married to Sanyuan Town, Liaozhou, and her husband's surname was Cui. He was the richest man in the town, and his relatives in his hometown were suffering. On his deathbed, Cai had to tell her daughter that if she was lucky enough to survive, she would go to her aunt, so that she could at least have food to eat and save her life.
Aunt Yuan was kind-hearted and was heartbroken when she learned that her cousin's family had suffered. She kept Yuhe by her side and treated her as her own daughter. Yuhe was very sensible and did not want to eat for free, so she helped her aunt with housework.
Unexpectedly, only half a year after the good days, Yuan's old illness relapsed and he passed away. The second wife outside Cui Yuan was surnamed Zou.
Cui Yuanwai runs a cloth shop in and around the city. His business is busy and he often goes out. He rarely cares about the affairs at home and has no knowledge of them.
After her aunt passed away, the Cui family did not kick her out of the house. Yuhe was already very grateful. She was born in a farm family, was not afraid of hardship, and did not resist the Zou family's arrangements.
No matter how tiring the Cui family's work is, it is much easier than the farm work. At least they have no worries about food and clothing, which makes the originally beautiful Yuhe even more charming.
Cui Yuanwai's third son was named Cui Biao, born to the Zou family. He was twenty-five years old at the time and was somewhat lustful. He couldn't stop seeing Yuhe's beauty and wanted to take possession of her by force.
Yuhe Zhenlie, disobeying to death During the dispute, Cui Biao was scratched. Although Cui had a cold nature, he was a very upright man. He hated his son's behavior and reprimanded him and banned him for half a year.
Cui Biao was Zou's pet peeve, and being punished in this way made her feel distressed. Although she put all her resentment on Yu He, she would curse him in mild cases and beat him severely in severe cases.
Mr. Cui couldn't bear it, and he didn't want to make his wife angry, but he often went out and couldn't take care of family affairs. For the sake of Yuhe's future, he decided to choose a family for her, no matter whether he was rich or poor, as long as the person was good.
Cui Biao's wife's surname is Sun. Like her mother-in-law, she is also a cruel and jealous person. Her husband looks for flowers and willows, but she dares to be angry but dare not speak out, and she also spreads her resentment on Yuhe.
That night, Mrs. Sun said to Mrs. Zou: "Mother-in-law, I have a cousin who married to Yunguan Town. I heard from her that there was a young man in their town named Feng Wang, nicknamed Feng Dalan. He had a medicine jar at home and was impoverished. This man was lazy by nature. He didn't change his clothes for several months. He smelled bad when he came near. If you can't bear it anymore, why not marry this little bitch Yuhe to Feng Dalan and let her suffer for the rest of her life? "
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are very similar. After hearing this, Zou was overjoyed and agreed immediately. The next day, she invited a matchmaker and went to Yunguan Town to arrange marriage.
Ms. Zou also pretended to be a good person. She said to Yuhe: "It's time for men to get married and women to get married. You are nineteen years old. It's time to find a family. After all, you are also a relative of my family. You can't be hasty. There is a young man named Feng Wang in Yunguan Town. The young man has an extraordinary appearance and a promising person. The family is a bit poor, Yuhe, don't you have any objections? "
If you come here, the Cui family is your master family. The Cui family will naturally make the decision on marriage. Besides, if you leave here, you will be less abused. It doesn't matter if the family is poor. As long as the man makes progress, life will get better sooner or later.
With such thoughts, Yuhe replied: "Thanks to the care of my wife and uncle in the past two years, Yuhe has been able to live. His great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten. Parents make the decision on major marriage matters. Yuhe's parents are gone, so naturally he will obey his wife and uncle."
Ms. Zou said with a smile on her face: "That's good, that's good. The matter is settled like this. I'll ask your uncle to prepare more dowry, so that he won't be offended in the past." Yuhe knew that she didn't mean what she said, but she was still grateful for the kindness of taking her in.
The cousin of member Cui of Sanyuan Town is going to marry Feng Wang. This news is a sensation. Everyone is talking privately: This cousin is probably extremely ugly or has a hidden disease, otherwise why would she choose Feng Dalan?
After Cui Yuanwai learned about this, he went to Yunguan Town to get to know Feng Wang's character in private. Then he visited Feng Wang's house in person. After observing in person, he agreed to the marriage.
Cui Yuan's butler's surname was Yuan. He was brought by Mrs. Yuan from her natal family and has been in Cui's family for thirty years. He cared about his mistress' kindness and persuaded him on the way back: "Sir, this young man is too lazy and the smell of semen on his body is unbearable. My cousin is also a relative after all. How can I marry such a person?
Cui Yuanwai stopped and said, "I think this person has good qualifications. You can see that his mother's room is clean and tidy, and his clothes are well-dressed. It shows that this person is kind and filial. His slovenliness and laziness are also caused by being hit. If he wakes up in the future, he will definitely achieve great results." Butler Yuan knew that his boss had a very accurate vision and felt much more at ease.
This marriage is indeed very unexpected for Feng Wang, but he is already twenty-two years old, well past the age of marriage. Since someone is willing to marry, why not marry him? With his own conditions, any woman is worthy of him, and he has no right to be picky.
The wedding was scheduled for a month later on the eighth day of June. Cui Yuan had prepared some dowry. He was a bit stingy, no matter who he was, and this huge family fortune also came from this. When Butler Yuan saw the list of dowry, he knew that his employer had been very generous.
Neighbors learned that Feng Wang was married and came over to help. They cleaned up the weeds in his yard and repaired the house briefly. Feng Wang himself shaved, combed his hair, and changed into clean clothes. Dressed like this, he looked like a handsome man.
On the day of their wedding, Feng Wang came to Cui's house to pick up his bride. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Sun and Zou, were surprised when they saw the energetic Feng Wang and felt that they had chosen the wrong person.
As dusk approached, the wedding was officially held. Ms. Zhao sat at the main seat and accepted the bows of the couple. Ms. Zhao was in good spirits recently, able to walk around the yard, and she was conscious. How could she not be happy to see her son marry a wife?
Feng Wang was very popular, and all the neighbors came to congratulate him. Most of these people had been favored by Feng Wang and brought generous gifts. They all drank and talked happily and were extremely happy.
Halfway through the first update, the guests dispersed. Feng Wang took care of his mother to rest first, and then entered the bridal chamber.
Feng Wang was half drunk and took off the bride's hijab. He could no longer see clearly. Yuhe's face was red and she lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at her husband. She turned around and spread out the quilt, huddled in the corner of the kang, and whispered: "Mr., please rest early."
As the saying goes, a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Feng Wang was impatient. He put out the lights and candles, took off his shoes and got on the kang.
At this moment, Yuhe suddenly covered his nose and said in surprise: "Mr., are you carrying salted fish? It's still rancid and smells so bad. "After the words fell, he was already retching.
Feng Wang was a little dizzy from the alcohol, and muttered: "Where did the salted fish come from? It's probably my foot odor. You'll get used to it in the future. "
" Ah! "As Yuhe screamed, Feng Wang fell under the kang with a plop. It turned out that he was kicked down by Yuhe. She was born in a peasant family and was very strong. This kick was very powerful.
"What are you doing? The fall hurt me. "Feng Wang said as he got up, lit the candle again, and woke up after the fall.
Yuhe quickly opened the window and took a breath. When she turned around and was about to blame her husband, she suddenly froze. Feng Wang did the same. He wiped his eyes and looked at the bride carefully.
After a moment, they both said at the same time: "It's you! "At this time, both of them recognized each other.
Yuhe said: "That day when my husband was rescued, my family was always concerned about it. I also asked my aunt to ask about it. But at that time, I only heard Brother Fu say that your name was Feng Dazlan, and I didn't know where you were from. Later, my aunt passed away and my family couldn't go out, so I couldn't ask anymore. I didn't expect that God had the foresight to let me marry my husband. I think the slave family has repaid the favor.
Feng Wang laughed and said, "I never expected that the person who rescued me that day would be my future wife. What a blessing from God!" "After saying this, the couple looked at each other and smiled, which was extremely warm.
Yuhe frowned and said, "No wonder Brother Fu calls your husband Feng Dalan. You are really lazy. How long have you not washed your feet? Where is the kitchen? I'll boil some water to boil your feet. "
After his mother fell ill, he couldn't stand the smell of fireworks, so Feng Wang set up the kitchen in a side room. Yuhe took off her bridal makeup, changed into a bundt, put on an apron, and went to the kitchen to boil water.
Feng Wang looked at his wife's busy figure through the window and thought: After getting married, he changed into new clothes, modified his appearance, bathed and washed his feet. He didn't want to make a fool of himself today and be kicked off the kang by his wife.
Yu He's dowry included a large bathtub, so she simply boiled two large pots of hot water to bathe her husband. Feng Wang couldn't even remember the last time he took a bath. He was so dirty that it took four buckets to change before the water became clear.
After bathing, he felt refreshed. Yuhe suddenly put on a serious face and said: "It is said that Buddha relies on gold and people rely on clothes. The Prime Minister is upright, kind, intelligent, and talented. How can he be so sloppy? From now on, your feet must be hotted every day, and your clothes must be changed frequently. The servant will serve you, and if you don't do it, you won't be able to sleep with him. "
Feng Wang looked at Yuhe and felt timid. She looked just like the fierce and aggressive person she was when she was robbed that day.
Yuhe kept her promise and from the second day on, she urged her husband to dress appropriately. If he disobeyed, he would not let him go to the kang. He would blame him at least and kick him down at worst.
Under the strict control of his wife, Feng Wang's appearance changed. , he was already very handsome, but he looked even more energetic after dressing up like this. For those who didn’t know, he thought he was a young master from a rich family.
Yuhe not only tidied up her husband, but also took great care of her mother-in-law, Zhao. She washed her face, combed her hair, heated her feet and rubbed her back, and was very filial. Needless to say, the house and courtyard were all cleaned up.
Seeing the changes in Feng Wang, let’s look at the changes in the Feng family. The neighbors all praised Feng Wang, saying that Feng Wang was lucky enough to marry such a good woman in his previous life.
In the past two years in the Cui family, Yuhe learned needlepoint embroidery from the old lady. She often embroidered some sweat towels and handkerchiefs and asked her husband to take them to sell. The eldest daughter and the younger daughter-in-law all liked it.
Feng Wang's slovenliness has been cured by Yuhe, but his laziness is still there. He is afraid of getting tired when going out for business, so he often hides in comfortable places to laze around, and his days are still tight.
After a year of marriage, they were already familiar with each other. Although Yuhe did not follow her husband in business, she could feel his laziness. Yuhe did not ask further questions. She planted vegetables in the yard, harvested and sold them in the western market. She also went to rich families to collect some sewing work to supplement the family income.
Feng Wang wandered around for a day, and soon after dinner, he went to sleep on the kang. When he woke up from his dreams several times, he saw his wife still busy under the lamp, and he was thoughtful.
One day, not long after Feng Wang went out, he suddenly felt pain in his abdomen, so he turned back. He wanted to rest for a long time. When he was approaching the door, he no longer had abdominal pain, so he turned back. At this time, the courtyard door of his home was half open, and Yuhe was busy working in the vegetable garden. Feng Wang put down his burden and peeked through the door.
Yuhe brought water one load after another, and when it came to watering the vegetable garden, her face turned red from exhaustion and she was sweating profusely. Although her mother had limited legs and feet, she still held a water ladle to help.
Seeing this scene, Feng Wang suddenly felt guilty. Thinking of his father's busy life when he was still alive, he turned his back, slapped himself in the mouth, picked up his burden and strode away. From this day on, Feng Wang's loud cries were heard in nearby villages and towns again.
Feng Wang is well-spoken and shrewd, and coupled with his diligence, business will naturally be good. He can basically sell out whatever he picks out every day, and his life will gradually become richer.
Another year passed in the blink of an eye, Yuhe was pregnant, and now life was more comfortable. Feng Wang no longer let Yuhe embroider and sell vegetables. He also hired an old woman to take care of his mother and wife.
In the spring of the next year, Yuhe gave birth to a son. Feng Wang was overjoyed and named his son Feng Qin. After the word "Qin", the name contained both warning and hope. Yuhe could guess some of its meaning.
The birth of Feng Qin brought good luck to the family. Two months later, a local doctor named Xue experienced this incident, and Yuhe invited him to treat his mother-in-law.
The prescription prescribed by Dr. Xue was very strange, but it was very effective. Zhao took the medicine according to this prescription. By the end of the year, she was five or six points better. She could walk without any hindrance, her brain was clear, and she could speak clearly. The family celebrated the New Year happily.
On the evening of the second day of February, Yuhe took out a box from the cabinet, which contained several pieces of jewelry and some silver. She said to Feng Wang, "Ms. sir, the jewelry was given by my aunt when she was dying, and the silver was given by my uncle." , plus my clothes and our savings, it is estimated to be worth two hundred taels. Aunt Wu’s son in the back street works as a clerk at the "Zhang Ji" cloth store. Aunt Wu heard from his son that after the old shopkeeper of "Zhang Ji" passed away, the young shopkeeper did not know how to run the business. On the verge of bankruptcy, I intend to transfer the shop. The shop is not very big, and the money is probably about the same. You can go and talk to the young shopkeeper tomorrow, try out your style, and if it suits you, buy it. My uncle owns a cloth shop, and I know a little bit about it. If you do it well, you can become rich in a few years. "
Feng Wang never expected that his wife would have so much money, and not a single leak would escape her for three years of marriage. As expected of someone who has lived in a wealthy family, she is so thoughtful! At this time, he was in a state of admiration for his wife.
The next day, Feng Wang went to shopkeeper Zhang Jishao. Although this man was not good at business, he was very cheerful in his work. In the end, the transaction was settled for one hundred and sixty taels, and the rent of the shop will be calculated separately from the second year.
From a young shopkeeper to a shopkeeper, Feng Wang felt that his burden had become heavier. He did not dare to be sloppy and worked diligently and cautiously. Two months after the shop opened, Butler Yuan came. He was ordered by Cui Yuanwai to guide Feng Wang.
Butler Yuan has been with Cui Yuanwai for thirty years. He is experienced and experienced and is definitely a good master. Feng Wang is thoughtful, smart and a good apprentice. In just two months, he learned the essence.
After Butler Yuan left, Buzhuang's business was extremely prosperous, and he returned to his hometown the next year. Feng Wang took his wife and children to Sanguan Town to visit Cui Yuan, who was Yuhe's natal family after all.
Seeing that Feng Wang has made such progress and Yuhe is so happy, Cui Yuanwai Laohuai is relieved, and he can't help but think of his late wife Yuan, and his eyes are red. Zou and Sun, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, had mixed feelings in their hearts. Yuhe cared about his kindness and respected the two of them. After all, those unpleasant things had passed.
Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another two years passed. Yuhe gave birth to another daughter, and Zhao's illness was 80% cured. It was a blessing to have such a result, and the couple no longer forced it.
Compared with the happiness of the family, the cloth shop's business is still booming, and it hired two more clerks to keep it busy.
That night, after waiting for his mother to go to bed, Feng Wang brought hot water to boil his feet. Five-year-old Feng Qin said in a milky voice: "Dad, why do you wash your feet every day? Are there worms?"
Feng Wang laughed and said, "It's not worms, but salted fish."
As soon as these words came out, Yu He, who was teasing his daughter, laughed so hard that he burst into tears. After coming out, Feng Wang looked at his wife and children, and couldn't help but sigh: "What more can a husband ask for when he has a wife, Yuhe!" (end of story)
[Write at the end]
A good girl prospers for three generations, but a bad girl destroys a clan. To Feng Wang, Yuhe is the woman who has a prosperous husband.
The fate between husband and wife is cultivated over several lifetimes. It is both coincidence and destiny. For example, the couple Feng Wang and Yuhe in the story, aren't they just a combination of chance and coincidence?
Looking back five hundred times in the past life, in exchange for passing by once in this life; passing by five hundred times in the past life, in exchange for one encounter in this life;
Five hundred times in the past life Meeting each other in exchange for one acquaintance in this life; five hundred times of acquaintance in the past life, in exchange for one acquaintance in this life;
Five hundred times of acquaintance in the past life, in exchange for one love in this life; and five hundred times of love in the past life, in exchange for being husband and wife in this life.
Life is rare. Once we meet, we should cherish each other. Not every encounter will make people's hearts flutter. Not every encounter will make people happy. Now that we have met, we must cherish it, treasure it with heart, don't give up easily, and don't forget easily.
