is from "Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes". During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty , there was a clerk in Wu County, Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. They had a good diplomatic relationship with the clerk. Coincidentally, the two wives were pregnant at the same time and gave birth to children at the same time. Du Yuan gave birth to a daughter named Du Xiaoyuan, and Pang Yuan gave birth to a child named Pang Muzhen. The two children played together since childhood and can be called childhood sweethearts.
Du Yuan's family is richer. He set up a school and invited a good husband. Several children study in it, including Du Xiaoyuan and Pang Muzhen. Adults with good deeds once joked to two children: "You two were born in the same year, the same month, and the same day. You can become a young couple." The two babies believed that they were true, and they often acted as young couples when they played family games.
"The world is long and long, and the years are fading like this." Time passed, and the two children gradually reached the age when they began to love each other. They even more regarded each other as partners, and even quietly wrote vows and promised to keep each other for a lifetime. When they were in their teens, the two even learned from other people's real husbands and wives, and acted as husband and wife in a hidden place.
However, this time did not last long. Seeing that his daughter had grown up, Du Yuan did not let her go to school, but stayed in her boudoir. "The door doesn't move." The eldest lady. Du Xiaoyuan could not resolve the love for Pang Muzhen, so she had to ask a close maid, Xiaocui, to send a letter to Pang Muzhen, and Pang Muzhen would also find a way to send it to Du Xiaoyuan through Xiaocui.
Originally, Pang Muzhen and Du Xiaoyuan were a match made in heaven, but things are impermanent. Pang's business has lost a lot of money, and his family lost money, and soon fell into decline. Pang Muzhen once begged his parents to propose marriage to Du Xiaoyuan, but "the world is so illusory, and the love is easy to fade." At this time, Du members have long looked down on Pang's family. Du Yuan hailed and said: "It's okay to ask for a relative, and wait until Pang Muzhen obtains fame and obtains a full-time official position."
At this time, Pang Muzhen is just a talented person. It was almost the day of the rural examination, he packed up his clothes and took the few silver coins left at home on the road. During this period, a young man from Wu County admired Du Xiaoyuan with both talents and good looks, and asked someone to ask for a kiss. The family of Tao Gongzi is also a wealthy local. If the Du family gets married with the Tao family, the two can join forces.To make the business bigger, he readily agreed, accepted the Tao's dowry, and agreed on the date of marriage.
Du Xiaoyuan was naturally unwilling. She only had Pang Muzhen in her heart. She knew that her father had promised herself to Master Tao. She really wanted to die, but she couldn't let go of Pang Muzhen, so she had to wash her face in tears all day long. Anxiously awaiting news of Pang Muzhen. Besides, Pang Muzhen tried his best in the examination room and felt good about himself. However, he did not stay in the capital waiting to be released like other students, but hurried home because he was also thinking about Du Xiaoyuan.
As soon as he got home, he learned that Du Xiaoyuan had promised the Tao family, and he couldn't help complaining about Du Xiaoyuan's lack of justice. It wasn't until news from the maid Xiao Cuituo that Pang Muzhen knew she was wrong. Xiaocui also sent news that Xiaoyuan's boudoir was close to a secluded part of the backyard and far away from the front yard, so it was agreed to put a ladder on the back wall in the evening, so that Pang Muzhen would go to meet and talk to each other. That night, Pang Muzhen went to the backyard and found the ladder, so he followed the ladder over the wall and entered. Xiao Cui quietly collected the ladder and used it when he came out.
Pang Muzhen and Du Xiaoyuan hugged and wept. After crying, Du Xiaoyuan said that he would only wait until the day of the wedding and commit suicide. That night, Pang Muzhen stayed in Du Xiaoyuan's room to relive the time in the school, while Xiao Cui went to the hut downstairs to rest. Before dawn the next day, Pang Muzhen went over the wall and left. After that, whenever he had a chance, Pang Muzhen came to Du Xiaoyuan for a tryst.
Du Xiaoyuan is a bit of a broken jar. She and Pang Muzhen were together at night, and only got up late the next day, and they yawned for a long time. Pang Muzhen's mental state was not good during the day, and he did not walk. strength. Du Xiaoyuan's abnormality first aroused the suspicion of Du members outside, and then began to pay attention to the movement of Du Xiaoyuan's boudoir. That night, after Pang Muzhen and Du Xiaoyuan had finished talking, they were whispering, and suddenly saw a figure hanging outside the window, and their hairs stood up in fright.
Pang Muzhen rolled out of bed, took Xiaoyuan's hand and walked out, but couldn't open the door. The shadow floating outside the window just now seemed to be at the door again. Pang Muzhen gritted his teeth and came to the window again, trying to climb out of the window, but the shadow floated out of the window again.Pang Muzhen couldn't open the window again. In this way, shadows floated around, no matter how hard Pang Muzhen and Du Xiaoyuan tried, they couldn't open the door or window.
At this time, the two dogs in the front yard of Du Yuan's family heard the movement and saw the floating shadow from a distance, so they barked at Du Xiaoyuan's boudoir. This call doesn't matter. Du Yuan rushed over with Jia Ding and the guy in his hand. At this moment, the shadow disappeared, Du Yuan Wai and the others happened to block Pang Muzhen inside. Seeing that the two of them were not dressed properly, Du Yuan didn't get angry. While calling Pang Muzhen, he said: "You are a gentleman on weekdays, how do you do such a ugly thing today!"
Pang Muzhen has not yet followed Just now, the ghost woke up from the shock. At this moment, he was beaten again. It took a long time to regain his senses. He replied: "You have already agreed. When I get on the list and become an official, I will marry Xiaoyuan. I." Du Yuanwai was even more angry when he heard it: "That's just a joke. You didn't pay the bride price. It was Mr. Tao, who gave the bride price, and the wedding date was officially confirmed." After that, the staff outside Du had someone tied up Pang Muzhen. When she was taken to the official's office the next day, Du Xiaoyuan was easily locked in the house.
After experiencing the situation just now, Du Xiaoyuan was ashamed and ashamed, thinking that she could not marry her beloved, she simply found a rope and hung herself on the beam. Du Xiaoyuan's mother was uneasy and hid quietly outside the door. After hearing the movement, she hurriedly called for help, and then she rescued Du Xiaoyuan. After finally persuading me, my mother went back to the room to rest and arranged for another maid to be on duty at the door. But the maid, in a daze, heard the sound of a stool falling to the ground again, and hurriedly ran in to take a look and found that Du Xiaoyuan was hanging again. Liang Shang.
Everyone was busy again and rescued her. Now, my mother arranged for several maids to stay with Du Xiaoyuan in turn. She thought it was fine during the day, but while the maids were taking a nap at noon, Du Xiaoyuan unexpectedly found some more clothes. , Pulled together and hung on the beam, and was discovered in time. After these three times, my mother was a little scared. At this time, an old lady said: "I think this is strange. Someone hanged himself in the woods next to the backyard. I think Miss's house is not clean anymore."
Du Yuanwai and his wife became nervous when they heard this.At this time, the matter between her and Pang Muzhen seemed unimportant. The old mother suggested to invite the elder Zhiyuan of Guangming Temple, and Du Yuan immediately arranged for someone to go. When Elder Zhiyuan came, he looked around and sneered, "The ghost is making trouble, she wants to find someone to replace him, so she deliberately set up a situation for people to break through the scandal of the young lady, so as to make her ashamed and hang herself. Ghosts will also play. My mind!"
Later, Elder Zhiyuan did a ritual here, and only then did he save the souls of the dead. Before leaving, Elder Zhiyuan said a few words to Du Yuan: " marrying a daughter needs a son-in-law, poverty and wealth are always determined by the sky. Marriage is a predecessor, not for the light and cold changes. " Du Yuan did not have at that time. I understood this because he had already sent Pang Muzhen to the county's jail, and at this time, Young Master Tao, who had been hired, had also heard about the Du's family. He had to return the offer and broke the marriage.
Pang Muzhen was depressed in the prison, but he heard a noise outside, and then there was a voice of good news, and someone yelled: "Which one is Pang Muzhen?" Pang Muzhen was ranked fourth. The people who had reported the news soon came to the Malays to ask for a reward. I heard that Pang Muzhen was actually locked up in a prison, and then he ran to the county office to find someone.
When the prefect saw Pang Muzhen High School, he also came to express his joy, and gave a reward to the reporter. Here Du Yuan learned the news of Pang Muzhen High School, and hurriedly returned Tao Gongzi's gift money, and personally went to the county office to pick up Pang Muzhen. Du Xiaoyuan was the happiest person, but Pang Muzhen was hit by Juren unexpectedly. After that, Du Yuanwai held a wedding for Pang Muzhen and Du Xiaoyuan, and he also understood the words of Elder Zhiyuan and was ashamed.
Harmonious Talking
"Black and white distinguishes the nature of the machine, who will solve the danger in the catastrophe? Secretly, with the help of the gods, and enrolling in the name." The nature of the ghost can see through Du Xiaoyuan's marriage, and it can also break through the hearts of forces outside of Du's members. People are not as good as the sky. Prosperity and death are inherently constant. The dust in the East China Sea still has a day, and the white dog is in an instant.
