This was spread from ten to ten, and many people came to watch the fun. I saw the little weasel squatting on the chopping board, with one paw on the splint, staring at its small black eyes. As long as someone came to buy meat, it would squeak twice.

During the Song Dynasty, an interesting thing happened in Lin'an City, that is, weasels would sell pork.

This was spread from ten to ten, and many people came to watch the fun. I saw the little weasel squatting on the chopping board, with one paw on the splint, staring at the small black eyes. As long as someone came to buy meat, it would squeak twice.

After the shopkeeper hears this, he will immediately come over to cut the meat for the customer. When the customer pays, he will raise his two front paws to bow to the customer, making people laugh.

The owner of this butcher shop is Yang Dexing, who is in his twenties and is already married and has children. Although he is young, he is kind-hearted and kind-hearted. He never lacks money when selling meat. When he meets poor people buying meat, he will always give a little more.

Before killing a pig every time, he would always starve the pig he bought for two days in advance to let it consume its own water before killing it. The pigs killed in this way have delicious meat and a good taste.

But some people do just the opposite. Before they kill the pigs, they tie them up and pour cold water on them until their bellies are bulging and they can't drink any more.

The taste of pigs killed in this way is not very good, but one thing is that if a pig can produce more than ten kilograms of meat, it can be sold for a lot more money. This is all caused by the desire for profit.

Because usually when making braised pork, a lot of ingredients are needed. That day, Yang Dexing went to the mountain to pick pepper. On the way down the mountain, he encountered a little weasel. His hind legs were bleeding and he could not walk. It looked like it was broken.

Seeing that it was pitiful, Yang Dexing took it home. After giving it medicine, he found two small wooden boards and fixed it to its legs with ropes.

This little weasel seems to like Yang Dexing very much. Whenever he goes out to the butcher shop, he will bite his trousers and hold on to him. Yang Dexing will take him to the butcher shop by the way. Unexpectedly, this little guy is also a "business spirit", which brings Yang Dexing a lot of fun.

On this day, Yang Dexing went up the mountain to pick pepper again, and by the way, he carried the little weasel on his back. Because its leg injury had healed, it should be released back into the forest.

When we got to the mountain, the little weasel accompanied Yang Dexing to pick pepper. After the bamboo baskets were full, Yang Dexing was about to go down the mountain, and the little weasel left reluctantly, with tears in his black eyes.

On the way back, Yang Dexing saw an old lady killing a chicken by the stream. She threw the killed chicken into a basin. Yang Dexing found that the water in the basin was gray and felt strange. He hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Grandma, how do you use it?" Is this dirty water for washing chicken? "

"This is the water soaked in plant ash . It is not dirty. The chicken soaked in it is delicious and has no fishy smell. My wife has been doing this all her life."

Yang Dexing was thinking about what his grandma said while walking. Since plant ash can remove the fishy smell, it can also be used to wash pig waste !

The pig's water that Yang Dexing mentioned is the heart, liver, lungs, and large and small intestines of the pig.

It turns out that when butchers kill pigs, they throw them away because they have a fishy smell and are unpalatable when cooked. They usually carry them on their backs and throw them up the mountain to be eaten by some animals.

When killing the pig this time, Yang Dexing did not throw the pig into the water. After cleaning it, he soaked it in the plant ash water for about a stick of incense, then cleaned it, cooked it in the usual way of making braised pork, and picked up a piece of pig liver and tasted it. It was very delicious and had no fishy smell at all.

On the second day, Yang Dexing took the pig offal to the butcher shop for sale, letting everyone taste it before buying. As soon as everyone tasted it, it tasted particularly delicious. The key is that it was half the price of pork. In a short time, all the pig offal was robbed.

In the following days, the supply of pig offal exceeded the demand. Yang Dexing began to purchase pig offal from other butcher shops, and then processed and sold it, because if they kept it, they would throw it away. Although the purchase price was low, it was better than throwing it away.

Not long after, Yang Dexin used the money he earned to buy a small house in Lin'an City, and brought his wife and children to live in the city, so that it would be more convenient to take care of them.

However, one night, a fire broke out in Yang Dexing's house. After being discovered, everyone kicked the door open and rushed into the house. The house was filled with black smoke and made people choke, but they could hear the cry of the baby.

People used the firelight to look for the cry and walked over. When they saw two people lying on the ground, they quickly lifted them up and found a baby waiting to be fed under them. It turned out that the couple tried their best to protect the child's life.

One person quickly picked up the child and handed him to the arms of a woman who rushed in. They were also busy carrying the adults out, but they were burned beyond recognition and could not be saved. At this time, the house also collapsed.

When everyone had finished their work and quieted down, they discovered that Yang Dexing's eleven-month-old son was missing. As for who the child had been handed over just now, everyone was in a hurry and didn't see clearly.

On the second day, the kind-hearted neighbor reported the fire and the missing child to the authorities. After verification by the authorities, judging from the scene, there was no suspicion of arson. As for the missing child, no one could provide evidence, so it was difficult to trace.

Since Yang Dexing was very charitable and popular during his lifetime, the neighbors pooled their money to buy two thin coffins and buried the couple.

Every time after dinner, this incident became a topic of discussion among people. As time went by, people gradually forgot about it. In the blink of an eye, the children who knew about this incident have grown up, married and had children.

Not long ago, a young doctor came to Lin'an City. Not only did he have excellent medical skills, but he was also quite handsome. The most important thing was that the doctor's medicines were relatively cheap, so he became famous not long after Lin'an City.

This man's name is Yang Linhao, and he is the son who disappeared when Yang Dexing's home was in a fire.

In fact, the person who took Yang Linhao away back then was none other than Yang Dexing's adopted sister Xiaolan. Speaking of this Xiaolan, she is also a person with a story.

Back then, Yang Dexing went to Rich Master Li's house to buy pigs and saw the servant giving a lesson to a little maid.

I saw the little maid tied to a tree. The servant's whip fell on her mercilessly. She was beaten to pieces. The maid kept begging for mercy, but the whip did not stop because of the sound of begging for mercy.

Yang Dexing was kind-hearted and could not bear to see such a scene, so he felt compassion and hurriedly stepped forward to ask why.

"I bought this dead girl when I was a child. When she was feeding my little son, she spilled the porridge and burned my son's arm. She must be beaten to death today." Rich Man Li said angrily.

Yang Dexing couldn't bear it anymore and decided to redeem the maid's life. After making up his mind, he said to Rich Man Li: "Master Li, my wife is about to give birth and she needs someone to take care of her. Instead of beating her to death, why not sell her to me?"

When Rich Man Li heard this, he thought it was a good idea, so he asked for twenty taels of silver and sold the maid to Yang Dexing. After he bought the pig, he put the maid in the car. At this time, the maid was almost unconscious.

As soon as he got home, he invited the doctor to see the maid. The doctor looked at the maid and shook his head and said: "The injury is so serious. I will get you some ointment and apply it on it. I will also prescribe some medicine to see if you can survive this or not." It depends on her fortune."

After grabbing the medicine, Yang Dexing asked his wife to help her clean the wound, apply the ointment, and then busy preparing the medicine and feeding it. It was considered that the girl was lucky, and she woke up the next day.

The maid told Yang Dexing and his wife that his name was Xiaolan and that what happened yesterday was all framed because she accidentally knew about the liaison between the maid and Rich Man Li. The maid deliberately bumped into her while she was feeding the rich man's son, so what happened next happened.

Xiaolan said that she would work hard all her life to repay the kindness of Yang Dexing and his wife. Yang Dexing said that it was a simple matter and he didn't need to worry about it, so he accepted Xiaolan as his adopted sister, thinking of finding a good family for her in the future.

That night, Xiaolan helped her neighbor next door look after the house. She got up in the middle of the night and went to relieve herself in the yard. She found a fire outside. She looked through the crack in the door and saw a black shadow flashing in panic. Xiaolan quietly opened the door and took a look, and found that the yard of her eldest brother Yang Dexing's house was on fire.

She ran out quickly and kicked the door desperately, but she was too weak to kick it open. So she shouted loudly, waking up the neighbors next door, and everyone got up to help save people.

When several men kicked the door open, Xiaolan rushed in. A man casually handed the child to her. When she saw that her brother and sister-in-law were not saved, she became cruel and sneaked away with the child in her arms.

Because she knew in her heart that this was not a simple fire, but someone deliberately set the fire on fire. The black figure just now must be the arsonist. It seemed that her brother's family was targeted by some enemy.

If they learned that the child was not dead in the future, they would definitely kill the child. In order to preserve her brother's only bloodline, she could only choose to leave with the child reluctantly.

Taking advantage of the dark night, Xiaolan went straight to the southeast of Lin'an City without resting for a moment. At dawn, she had left Lin'an City for more than 40 miles and arrived at the foot of a mountain.

At this time, the child was crying loudly. Xiaolan touched the child's forehead and found that the child had a fever. Xiaolan was so anxious that she broke out in a sweat. She quickly tore off a piece of cloth from her clothes, put it in the stream next to it to soak, and then applied it to the child's forehead. The child still kept crying, and she must be hungry.

At this time, a man on horseback came in front. He was tall and tall, with a bow and arrow hanging on his waist. He was also carrying a wild goat on his back. He seemed to be a hunter.

Seeing someone coming over, Xiaolan hugged the child tightly. The man said angrily: "Girl, what's wrong with the child? He's crying so much?"

"The child is sick and has a high fever." Xiaolan said timidly.

"Brother, you are often active in the mountains. Do you know what medicine can reduce fever? I want to go to the mountains to collect some." Xiaolan asked the man.

"By the time you climb up the mountain and find the medicine, your condition will have been delayed for a long time. I am a hunter on this mountain. I have medicine at home. You and I can go back and boil it for the child to drink." The man said.

Xiaolan was afraid that this man was a bad person, so she looked at the child in her arms and decided to go with him.

Not long after, we arrived at the man's house. The man found the herbal medicine, cooked it and gave it to Xiaolan. Xiaolan blew the medicine to cool down, fed it to the child with a small spoon, and asked the man to make some rice soup for the child to drink.

Xiaolan lied to the man that her brother and sister-in-law died in an accident, leaving the child behind. She was alone with the child and had nowhere to go, and wanted to go to a distant relative.

The man went into the mountains to hunt during the day and slept in the woodshed when he came back at night. He seemed to be a good person. Xiaolan stayed here for three days, and the child's illness was cured.

"Sister, traveling long distances alone with a child is very dangerous. Why don't you stay and marry me? I will treat the child as if it were my own." The man suddenly said while eating.

Xiaolan thought about it, the mountains here are deep and the forests are dense, and it is very secluded. If she marries him, the child will be safe. In this case, Xiaolan agrees.

Only then did Xiaolan know that the man's name was Sun Dabiao, that his parents were dead and he was alone.

When Yang Linhao was six years old, Sun Dabiao saw that he liked playing with herbal medicines, so he was sent to a friend's house to learn culture and medical skills from his friend's father. Because Yang Linhao was smart and studious, he was deeply loved by his master.

When he was eighteen years old, his medical skills were already very good, so he said goodbye to his master and returned to his aunt Xiaolan's house, preparing to tell her that he would go out to practice medicine and make money to repay her.

Xiaolan quietly told Yang Linhao that his parents did not die accidentally, but were murdered. She asked him to return to Lin'an City and practice medicine while finding the truth about the murder of his parents. Yang Linhao followed his aunt's instructions and became a doctor in Lin'an City.

On this day, when Yang Linhao was sitting in the hall, a government official came and said that his mother was seriously ill and had difficulty moving. During this period, he had seen many doctors, but none of them had any effect. I heard that he had excellent medical skills, so he specially invited Yang Linhao to go to his home to treat his mother.

Seeing the man's sincere attitude, Yang Linhao went with him. When he arrived, he saw the old lady lying on the bed with a sallow face and thin skin. He carefully checked her pulse and found that the old lady had no serious illness, but had problems with the spleen and stomach, and there was blockage in the intestines and stomach.

When other doctors see children with diseases in this area, they will constantly prescribe tonics. In this way, if the deficiency is not replenished, the condition will worsen.

Yang Linhao first gave her two doses of medicine. After taking the medicine, the old lady went to the toilet two or three times a day. Later, he prescribed several more medicines. After taking the medicine, her face became noticeably better and her food tasted sweeter. After a month of treatment, the old lady was able to get out of bed and walk.

The yamen servant was so grateful that he brought food and wine to the hospital in the evening, and started drinking with Yang Linhao. The wine deepened his love for her, "Brother, you are my benefactor. If I need help in the future, I will never give up." The yamen servant said slightly drunk.

From then on, Fang Chen came to Yang Linhao for a drink every now and then. Yang Linhao also felt that he was a righteous person and that such a friend was worthy of deep friendship.

One day, a woman helped a middle-aged man into the hospital. "Mr. Yang, please help my dad, he was accidentally injured while practicing his sword practice," the woman said.

I saw the man covering his arm with his hands, and blood was flowing out. Yang Dexing saw this and quickly cleaned his wound. He found that the wound was long and deep. After cleaning, he took out a needle and mulberry thread, stitched it slowly stitch by stitch, and bandaged it with medicine.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang." The father and daughter said in unison.

"I wonder where the doctor is from? He looks very similar to an old friend of mine." The middle-aged man suddenly asked Yang Linhao.

Yang Linhao was startled, and then replied: "I am from Henan Prefecture . My father Yang Dabiao and my mother Zeng Xiaolan. Unfortunately, my parents passed away two years ago. Do you know them?" Yang Linhao did not tell the truth.

"I don't know. It seems I recognized the wrong person. I'm sorry." After saying that, he paid the consultation fee and left.

The next day, the man's daughter came to the hospital and said to Yang Linhao: "Yang Langzhong, thank you so much for saving my father yesterday." She also brought Yang Linhao a bag of tea.

"Girl, there is no need to thank you. It is my duty to save lives and heal the wounded." Yang Linhao said to the girl.

"My name is Zhang Cuilian. My father is in the fur business and I live on the street in front. If you need any help in the future, just ask." The girl said with a smile before leaving.

Yang Linhao refused to take the bag of tea and asked her to take it back. It could be seen from his face that Zhang Cuilian was particularly disappointed.

At noon, my aunt came with her child. The child's name was Sun Qi. He was fourteen years old and was the son of Xiaolan and Sun Dabiao.

As soon as her aunt entered the hospital, she pulled Yang Linhao aside and told him an important thing. The fire was caused by Zhang Qing, a butcher on the street who paid for the murder. It was just because his brother's business was so good that he was jealous.

It turns out that a few days ago, when Sun Dabiao went hunting in the mountains, he accidentally fell off his horse and lost his life. Xiaolan was afraid that Yang Linhao would worry about her, so she didn't come to tell him the news.

When Xiaolan was packing up Sun Dabiao's belongings, she found a notebook (diary) at the bottom of a box. She asked Sun Qi to read the words on it to her, and there was a shocking secret hidden in it.

It turns out that Sun Dabiao was a killer during his lifetime. Every business he took was recorded in detail in his notes. Zhang Qing asked him to set fire to kill people, which was the last business he took in his life. He felt that doing so was a serious sin, so he washed his hands in the golden basin, and then met Xiaolan and got married.

After hearing what his aunt said, Yang Linhao felt his heart twisting. It turned out that his parents were really harmed back then, and he must avenge them.

"Auntie, let's take the evidence and report it to the official!" Yang Linhao said to Xiaolan.

"I'm afraid this is not possible. Although there is evidence, Sun Dabiao is dead. There is no way to confront him. Even if Zhang Qing wants to say that the evidence is forged by us, there is nothing we can do. Don't worry, this matter needs to be remembered for a long time." Xiaolan said.

"Mr. Zhang, please change my dressing." came a man's voice.

"Okay, I'll be here soon." Yang Linhao responded and walked over.

The person who came was the person who had sutured the wound that day. Xiaolan looked up unintentionally and was shocked. This person was Zhang Qing. Although she had only seen him once many years ago, Xiaolan recognized him at a glance. Xiaolan was so scared that she hid behind the screen.

After Zhang Qing left, Xiaolan immediately walked out. At this time, she was still in shock. "Haoer, the person who changed the dressing just now is the butcher Zhang Qing back then." Xiaolan said.

"He was the one who killed my parents. It would be unkind to not take revenge." After Yang Linhao finished speaking, he clenched his fists fiercely.

"Auntie, Zhang Cuilian, the daughter of Butcher Zhang, came here once in private. It can be seen from her eyes that he is interested in me. I might as well start with her and get close to Zhang Qing to see if I can get evidence?" Yang Linhao continued.

"My child, that Zhang Cuilian is the child of the enemy. It is not worth sacrificing your life's happiness for revenge!" Xiaolan said to Yang Linhao.

"Auntie, don't worry too much. If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cub. I am responsible for this matter. I will take you and your brother out for lunch." After Yang Linhao finished speaking, he led the two of them out of the hospital.

After dinner, Yang Linhao arranged for Xiaolan and her son to stay.

As expected, Zhang Qing's daughter Zhang Cuilian fell in love with Yang Linhao. She always came here every now and then out of gratitude to bring him cakes or tea.

Wang Linhao did not refuse this, but instead accepted it with a smile, because this was the first step in implementing his plan. Zhang Cuilian felt happy when she saw that he no longer refused.

Just like this, the two people became familiar with each other. Yang Linhao tried to get some information from Zhang Cuilian. He only knew that Zhang Qing was no longer a butcher and had switched to fur business. He couldn't get any important information. He was so anxious that he had no choice but to find a breakthrough from Zhang Qing.

One day after lunch, Zhang Cuilian came again. As soon as she entered the door, she said sweetly: "Mr. Yang, this is the osmanthus cake I made by myself. You can try it."

"Thank you, girl." Yang Linhao was not polite. He picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, saying it was delicious.

Zhang Cuilian stared at Yang Linhao for a long time, and said coyly: "Mr. Yang, are you engaged? If not, I want to marry you!"

"No, actually I fell in love with the girl at first sight. One day, can I have someone go to my house to propose marriage?" Yang Linhao said.

"Really? Then I'll go back and wait!" After Zhang Cuilian finished speaking, she ran away shyly.

The next day, the matchmaker came to Zhang's house and explained her purpose. Zhang Qing said, "Mr. Yang is a very talented man and has excellent medical skills, but I have a condition. Because I only have a daughter, he must marry into my family."

"Sure, I will go back and discuss with Mr. Yang. He will definitely agree. Your Zhang family has a great business. You can't find such good things with a lantern." The matchmaker left after saying this.

Unexpectedly, after Yang Linhao heard about it, he agreed immediately. He said to the matchmaker: "This is very good. It just so happens that I have no father or mother."

The wedding day was scheduled for the sixth day of the next month. The days went by so fast, and it was the fifth day of the new year in a blink of an eye.

"Child, starting from tomorrow, you have to be careful about everything. The most important thing is to protect yourself, and don't pretend to be real. After all, she is the daughter of the enemy." Xiaolan said to Yang Linhao.

"Aunt, please don't worry. I am a doctor. I have my own way not to sleep with Zhang Cuilian. After the great revenge is avenged, we will fly away." Yang Linhao replied.

At night, Yang Linhao drank a few glasses of wine, and then fell into a deep sleep. In his sleep, he saw an old man coming to his side.

The old man, wearing a yellow gown and a long beard, actually spoke to him: "My child, you must not drink a glass of wine during the wedding tomorrow, remember!"

"Old man, who are you?" Yang Linhao asked.

"I am a weasel who has cultivated into a human form. Your father saved my son before he was alive. I will not harm you. Remember what I said. Don't drink a glass of wine on the wedding night." After the old man finished speaking, he disappeared.

"Old man, wait a minute." Yang Linhao said, and when he woke up, he realized that this was a dream.

Just after dawn, the sound of playing could be heard outside. Yang Linhao got up quickly, washed briefly, put on wedding clothes, and got on the sedan chair to go to Zhang's house.

There were quite a few people who came to see off their bride. In addition to the neighbors, there was also the yamen servant Fang Chen, who brought a bunch of little brothers. It was really lively.

After paying homage to heaven and earth, the bride was sent into the bridal chamber. Zhang Qing, his wife and Yang Linhao entertained the guests outside, toasting table after table. Guests came one after another. It seemed that Zhang Qing had a lot of friends, most of whom were in business. It was not until the afternoon that the guests gradually left.

It was night, and Yang Linhao walked into the bridal chamber. The bride was sitting on the bed. He walked over and gently opened the bride's hijab. Zhang Cuilian immediately blushed.

She stood up, walked to the table, poured two glasses of wine, and said to Yang Linhao: "Ms. sir, it's getting late. Let's have a drink and have a rest early!"

After that, she poured the wine. When the glass was full, he picked up a glass and handed it to Yang Linhao. Yang Linhao took the glass and was about to drink it. Suddenly he remembered his dream last night. The old man in the dream told him not to drink from the same glass, so he blocked the glass with his sleeve and poured the wine secretly.

After Zhang Cuilian drank a glass of wine, she lay down on the table and fell asleep. When Yang Linhao saw this, he also pretended to fall asleep.

Before even having a cup of tea, a person came into the bridal chamber. This person was Zhang Qing. He walked straight to Zhang Cuilian, picked her up and put her on the bed, and then walked to Yang Linhao with a sinister smile on his face.

"Yang Linhao, actually I am quite satisfied with you as my son-in-law. The mistake is that you are Yang Dexing's son. If you find out in the future that I sent someone to kill your mother, you will definitely take revenge. Now I can't keep you." Zhang Qing said to himself.

It turns out that since their first meeting, Zhang Qing knew that Yang Linhao was Yang Dexing's son because his facial features looked very similar to Yang Dexing's.

The most important thing was that when Yang Linhao was suturing his wound that day, he happened to see the birthmark on Yang Linhao's wrist. Because Yang Dexing's son also had a birthmark on his wrist, he quickly concluded that he was Yang Dexing's son.

Just when he didn't know how to get rid of Yang Linhao, the matchmaker happened to come to propose marriage, so he used a trick to get rid of him on the wedding night.

Looking at the sleeping Yang Linhao, Zhang Qing pulled out a dagger from his waist and stabbed Yang Linhao directly in the back of the heart. Yang Linhao rolled on the table to avoid the attack, then picked up a chair and threw it at Zhang Qing.

Zhang Qingyi dodged and asked in surprise: "You didn't drink?" "Yes, you are a despicable villain. Back then, you paid for the murder of my parents, and today you want to hurt my life again. If you are interested, please report yourself to the police as soon as possible." Yang Linhao said.

"Dream!" After Zhang Qing finished speaking, he stabbed Yang Linhao with a dagger.

"Zhang Qing, give me an assistant." Following the voice, several government officials rushed into the house and came directly to capture Zhang Qing.

"You actually reported to the official in advance. It seems that I still underestimated you too much, and I fell into your hands today." Zhang Qing said fiercely.

"Push him down first and send him to the Yamen tomorrow." After Fang Chen finished speaking, he waved his hand and everyone took Zhang Qing down.

"Brother Fang, how did you know I was in trouble today?" Yang Linhao said gratefully.

"I wanted to bring my brothers to have a wedding, so I secretly hid in the corner in front of the window. Unexpectedly, the wedding did not happen, but an old case was revealed, so I rushed in with my brothers."Fang Chen said to Yang Linhao.

"That Zhang Qing is so cunning and cunning, I didn't expect him to do this. Thanks to Brother Fang today, please accept my respect. "Yang Linhao saluted.

"Okay, we are good brothers, so there is no need for so many things. I will accompany you tomorrow to deliver this old thing to the county government. " Fang Chen said. Yang Linhao nodded in agreement.

Because of the testimony of the government officials and the notebook, Zhang Qing quickly confessed and was sentenced to beheading.

On the day of the execution, the prison car escorting Zhang Qing was walking on the street. The villagers threw stones and rotten vegetable leaves at Zhang Qing. Some people threw stones and cursed at the same time: "Yang Dexing and his wife are such good people, but you were killed. Let me not kill you today. "Zhang Qing was so prosperous in the past, but he is so miserable today.

After Zhang Qing was executed, Mrs. Zhang felt that she could not lift her head in front of a human face. She was depressed all day long and died soon after. Zhang Cuilian knew that her father had sinned deeply. So he became a nun, hoping to alleviate his father's sins.

Yang Linhao brought food, wine, paper money, and came to his parents' graves. After paying homage, he said, "Father and mother, your great revenge has been avenged, so rest in peace!" " Then he left with three steps.

From then on, Yang Linhao also disappeared in Lin'an City. Many years later, it was rumored that a miracle doctor who hung a pot to save the world and healed the wounded appeared in the rivers and lakes. He was known as the "Medical Fairy of Butterfly Valley". "
