During the Song Dynasty, there was a family of three in the east of Xingzhou city. The male owner was named Wu Dongsheng, a traveling businessman, and his wife, Hanmei, was the daughter of Liu Blacksmith, the west of the city. A year after marriage, the couple had a happy son, and the couple discussed naming the child Baocheng.

On weekdays, Wu Dongsheng often goes out to do business, leaving only his wife, Hanmei, to take care of the children at home. Seeing his son grow up day by day, the couple was very happy.

Time flies, and it is a year in a blink of an eye. Baocheng, with the help of his mother, began to learn to walk. His shaking look was really pleasing. Every time Wu Dongsheng goes home from business, he will bring some small candies. When he hears his son shouting "Dad", his heart feels sweeter than eating honey.

At the beginning of the spring of this year, Wu Dongsheng went out of a long journey. A month later, he suddenly heard bad news. The wife took her son back to her parents' home. Unfortunately, on the way back, she met a human trafficker. The man saw that their orphan and widowed mother had evil thoughts and snatched the child away.

On the day of the incident, Sanmei ran to the yamen to report to the official. The government posted the portrait of the suspect at the city gate according to the information she provided, hoping that someone would provide relevant clues after seeing it. Half a month has passed, but the case has no clue.

Mother and son are in love, and Hanmei feels deeply guilty of losing her beloved son. Soon after, she fell seriously ill. Since her son was lost, Wu Dongsheng has never blamed his wife, for fear that she would not be able to think about it for the time being and do something stupid.

Two years later, wintersweet gave birth to another daughter, and the birth of her daughter brought joy to the family. The couple finally smiled again on their faces, but whenever they think of their lost son, they still couldn't help but feel sad and cry.

One evening, Wu Dongsheng returned from outside. As soon as he entered the city gate, he saw an old man standing by the road selling turtle . Seeing that it was getting darker, he walked up and took out the money to buy the turtle, and told the old man to go back early.

Recently, wintersweet has suffered from cold wind and coldness, and its health has been not very good. Wu Dongsheng is preparing to stew a turtle soup for his wife to nourish his body. When he returned home, he was about to make a fire and stew the soup when he heard a knock on the door outside.

Wu Dongsheng put down the turtle and hurried out to open the door. The moment the door opened, a gray-haired old woman appeared in front of him. With the dim light, he could vaguely see the grandmother's face. He felt that the person in front of him was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.

Before Wu Dongsheng could speak, he saw the grandmother start and said, "Young man, don't be busy stewing soup first, first, third, and second time to burn the fire!" After the old man finished speaking, he walked away without looking back.

Wu Dongsheng looked confused, feeling like he was dreaming, and silently chanting what the old man had just said in his heart: "At one earlier, late three times later, and it is time to burn the fire at the second time!" How did the grandma know that he wanted to stew turtle soup? Who is this person?

Winter Plum saw her husband standing outside the door like a statue, and hurriedly called him. At this time, Wu Dongsheng suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, I remembered it." When he realized that the grandma had disappeared without a trace.

Half a year ago, Wu Dongsheng went out alone to purchase goods. When he reached the foot of a mountain, he suddenly saw a ragged grandmother lying on the side of the road. He went up to take a closer look and found that the old man had passed away for a long time.

In the year of the disaster, corpses were everywhere, and there were many homeless people. Wu Dongsheng couldn't bear to look at the old lady's body in the wilderness, for fear that she would be eaten by jackals, tigers and leopards, so he buried the old man's body nearby.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a breath. Seeing that her husband looked panicked, Hanmei asked him why. Wu Dongsheng knew that his wife was timid and did not dare to tell the truth. He recalled the old lady's words over and over again, and could not guess what the old man meant.

Back in the house, looking at the turtle on the chopping board, Wu Dongsheng placed it aside, intending to stew the soup in the second update according to the old man's words. He kept beating in his heart, not knowing what would happen.

After dinner, the wife coaxed the child to lie down and sleep early. Wu Dongsheng sat at the table, quietly waiting for the arrival of the second update. The night is quiet, and the moon gradually climbs to the willows. He felt a little tired after running around for a day, and sat on a chair and took a nap in a daze.

Suddenly, a sound of clamoring came from outside. The second update was already here. Wu Dongsheng went out with a nervous heart to pick up the firewood and prepared to start stewing the soup. He took a few pieces of wood from the stack of firewood, and as soon as he turned around, he saw a piece of wood falling to the ground with a bang.

He was about to bend down and pick it up when he suddenly saw a figure running towards him. The man suddenly tripped by the wood and fell to the ground hard. Then I heard someone shouting, "Catch him and don't let him run away."

The man was about to get up, and Wu Dongsheng threw him to the ground all at once, and the two fought together. Meiniang Hearing the sound, he went out to check the situation with a lantern in a panic. When she saw the man's face, she suddenly shouted in surprise: "You evil man, please give me my son back!"

Wu Dongsheng never dreamed that the trafficker who once stole his son was standing in front of him now. The long-depressed anger in his heart erupted instantly, and his fists hit the man like raindrops.

After a moment, two middle-aged men chased after him, claiming that the thief stole their silver. Without saying a word, a few people pulled him straight to the yamen. After interrogation, the man honestly explained the truth.

This person's name is Han Guangsheng, who is a Zhendingfu . Facing the accusation of the three people, he had to plead guilty and confessed to his crime of trafficking children and robbing money.

For two years, he has been committing crimes in Zhending Prefecture and Xingzhou, abducting more than 30 children. According to the clues provided by Han Guangsheng, the government arrested the other two accomplices together. The three people were extremely guilty and were sentenced to death in court.

According to the information they provided, the government retrieved a total of eight trafficked children, including Wu Dongsheng's son Wu Baocheng. Later, whenever he thought of this, he always felt a lot of emotion. If it weren't for the good reminder of his grandma, it would have been unlikely that Wu Dongsheng would have reunited with his son in his life.

Conclusion:

Wu Dongsheng was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see his grandmother expose her body in the wilderness, so he kindly buried her. If you sow good causes and make good connections, everything in the world will have a cycle of cause and effect. Wu Dongsheng's kindness brought him a group of father and son, and there was God's will in this dark.

On the other hand, Han Guangsheng and others did many evil deeds, and they really deserve to die. This is exactly: sowing good causes will lead to good results, and sowing bad causes will lead to bad results. If a person wants to have a good destiny, he must have multiple good causes and do more good deeds. Helping others is like helping yourself.
