On the wedding night, the man sneaked into the cave room, and the bride escaped by pretending to sleep
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Batian, a wealthy son in Mingyang Town, Xuzhou, lived a luxurious life of stretching out his hands with clothes and opening his mouth with food since he was a child.
The Wang family was one of the famous and large families in the city, and the wealth they accumulated was immeasurable. Relying on his family background, Wang Batian often bullied others wantonly and did evil.
One day, Wang Batian wandered around the city with a group of retinues. Suddenly, a hurried figure hit Wang Batian's shoulder, almost causing him to fall.
This person was Zhou Tao, a nearby bricklayer. Zhou Tao immediately stepped forward and bowed and apologized: "Childe, I'm really sorry, I was in too much of a hurry just now, please don't be weird." ”
Before Wang Batian could speak, his subordinate Xu Chong stepped forward and kicked Zhou Tao to the ground. Zhou Tao hurriedly said: "You are too unreasonable, I didn't mean it, you actually started beating people, this is too much." ”
Xu Chong sneered: "You have offended my son-in-law, no one can save you today." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Tao's heart sank, he didn't expect that he would be so unlucky and run into the notorious Wang Batian in the city. He knew he was in trouble.
Then, a figure suddenly flashed and kicked the group of thrashers into the air with a few kicks. Zhou Tao opened his eyes and saw that he was suddenly relieved, it seemed that he was saved.
Wang Batian gritted his teeth after seeing the person coming, and shouted angrily: "Li Jin, you actually offended me again, it seems that you are tired of living." Someone, beat him up for me. ”
At this time, Li Jin stood in front of Zhou Tao and said lightly: "Prince Wang, the days of bullying good and fearing evil are not long. With that, he no longer paid attention to Wang Batian and turned his gaze to Zhou Tao, who fell to the ground.
Li Jin lives in a village outside the city and is one of the few hunters in the area. It is said that when he was a child, he worshipped a master as a teacher and learned a martial art. Li Jin is kind and hateful, so he often has conflicts with Wang Batian.
Wang Batian issued an order, and although his subordinates knew that they were not Li Jin's opponents, they could only step forward. However, Li Jin knocked them to the ground almost effortlessly. Afterwards, Li Jin walked up to Wang Batian and said, "Wang Batian, if I see you bullying others next time, don't blame me for knocking you down as well." ”
Wang Batian was so frightened that he retreated again and again, and he couldn't say the cruel words he wanted to say, so he could only flee in disgrace. The villagers gave a thumbs up and praised Li Jin's bravery. Li Jin helped Zhou Tao, who fell to the ground, and the latter said gratefully: "Thanks to Brother Li's timely appearance, otherwise I would have suffered." ”
Li Jin said: "That Wang Batian is really hateful, and he bullies people because of his illustrious family background. The next time I meet him again, I'll let him taste my fists. ”
After Wang Batian returned home, he complained to his father. However, the old father of the Wang family blamed him for being spoiled since he was a child, which led him to be so presumptuous. The old father advised him to learn to restrain his temper and avoid causing trouble.
But Wang Batian was angry in his heart, how could he have suffered such a grievance since he was a child. He decided to make Li Jin pay the price. At this moment, Xu Chong, a subordinate beside him, proposed a plan: "Young master, I heard that Li Jin has a sweetheart named Xiaocui, who has excellent appearance. If you marry Xiaocui, Li Jin will surely feel miserable. ”
Wang Batian was overjoyed and immediately agreed to let Xu Chong carry out the plan, and promised to give him a generous reward.
Xu Chong took a few of his men to Dazhuang Village outside the city and found Xiaocui's home. Cui is taking care of her sick father. When she saw a group of strangers visiting, she became alarmed and asked them what they were looking for.
Xu Chong smiled and said, "You are Miss Xiaocui, I'm here to convey the good news." My young master is interested in you and wants to marry you. That's a great thing, don't miss it. ”
After hearing this, Xiaocui hurriedly refused: "Thank you for your kindness, but Xiaocui already has a sweetheart, please go back." ”
Seeing this, Xu Chong was unwilling and continued to persuade: "Do you know who my son-in-law is?"He is the eldest young master of the Wang family, marrying into the Wang family, you will live a glorious and wealthy life in the future, a hundred times stronger than Li Jin. ”
When Xiao Cui heard that Wang Batian was interested in her, she was flustered. She hurriedly refused: "The little girl's family is poor, and she is not worthy of the prince, so please don't be reluctant with the eldest brother." ”
Xiao Cui's humility made Xu Chong displeased, and said coldly: "If you don't eat and drink in the toast, you will have to suffer in the future." ”
Xu Chong led everyone back to Wang's house and told Wang Batian about Xiaocui's refusal. Wang Batian was indignant, so Xu Chong proposed to use Xiaocui's father to threaten her, so that she could not refuse.
Hearing this plan, Wang Batian readily agreed. That night, Xu Chong and others quietly broke into Xiaocui's house and forcibly took Xiaocui and her father away. 's father was mastered by Wang Batian, and Xiaocui could only obey and obey orders.
A few days later, news came out from the Wang family that Wang Batian would marry Xiaocui. The news reached Li Jin's ears and aroused his anger. He knew Xiao Cui's personality and understood that this must be the result of being persecuted by Wang Batian.
So, Li Jin found the Wang family. When Wang Batian learned that Li had come in, he was overjoyed. He took Xiao Cui's hand and walked outside the door to greet Li Jin's arrival.
Li Jin hurriedly shouted: "You let go of me, otherwise I will beat you all over the ground looking for teeth." ”
However, Wang Batian sneered: "Li Jin, Xiaocui is my fiancée, what qualifications do you have as an outsider to interfere with us?."Why don't you ask Xiaocui who she is willing to marry. ”
Li Jin looked at Xiao Cui and said, "Xiao Cui, is he persecuting you?"Don't be afraid, I'll get you justice. ”
Xiao Cui's eyes were red, and she couldn't speak. Wang Batian was impatient, and shook it hard, Xiao Cui trembled and said: "Brother Li, you misunderstood, I voluntarily married the Wang family, so that I don't have to live a hard life, you better go back quickly." ”
Li Jin stood still, he didn't expect Xiaocui to be such a woman. After Wang Batian succeeded, he said sarcastically: "When I get married, I will definitely invite Brother Li to drink the wedding wine." ”
Li Jin laughed to himself and turned to leave. His back was full of loneliness and loneliness.
However, before the grief had subsided, another piece of bad news came, his mother was seriously ill and collapsed at home. Fortunately, the villagers invited a doctor in time to save her life temporarily, but a large amount of silver taels were needed. This bothered Li Jin, because he couldn't earn enough silver taels by hunting, only enough to sustain the mother and son.
As a result, Li Jin could only embark on the road of finding a new job. Perhaps it was fate that he really got a chance to take off.
It turned out that the Dong family in the city planned to recruit some guards, and Li Jin was overjoyed. With his outstanding skills, he believes that he can make the selection. So, he went to participate in the interview, and as he wished, Li Jin was hired by the Dong family with the first place. After Dong Yuanwai learned about his family background, he also deliberately advanced his salary in advance, thus stabilizing Li Jin's mother's condition.
After entering the Dong family, Li Jin was conscientious and soon received the attention of Dong Yuanwai and was taken to his side. One day, Dong Yuanwai called Li Jin and others to his side and said: "Come with me to Xianghe Town tomorrow, there is a batch of important goods that need to be escorted, and I will personally go into battle." It's up to you to be safe this time. ”
Li Jin hurriedly agreed: "Don't worry, even if you use my life, you will definitely protect you." ”
Hearing this, Dong Yuanwai was full of emotion, patted Li Jin's shoulder and said, "When I come back safely this time, I will definitely reward you richly." ”
The Dong family caravan set off early the next morning. Li Jin and others are closely surrounded by Dong Yuan, and there should be no accidents this time.
Due to the long distance and the importance of the goods, the caravan traveled day and night, and even if it was tired, it could not be relaxed.
However, as the caravan passed through a wood, a group of bandits suddenly appeared and surrounded them. Seeing this, Li Jin shouted loudly: "It's not good, there is an ambush!."Quickly protect the directors. ”
Several guards quickly protected Dong Yuanwai in the middle, and the bandits attacked them without saying a word. The bandits were numerous, and they quickly suppressed the guards, many of them. However, Li Jin was able to fight off the bandits with ease, but he alone did not have time to rescue the others, and the Dong family guards were soon brutally killed.
Seeing that Dong Yuanwai was attacked by bandits, Li Jin hurriedly broke away from the battle, rushed to the carriage, and successfully rescued Dong Yuanwai. Li Jin saw that there were many bandits, so he had to flee on horseback with Dong Yuanwai.
Seeing that Li Jin was strong, the bandits did not dare to chase after them, so they escaped. Li Jin and Dong Yuanwai found a nearby village and looked for a temporary place to live.
Dong Yuanwai was deeply grateful, if it weren't for Li Jinfen's disregard for his protection, he might have become a victim of the bandits. So Dong Yuanwai proposed: "Li Jin, are you willing to be my adopted son?"The descendants of my Dong family died unexpectedly and tragically, and now I am the only one left to support me, you have a good character, I am willing to entrust the Dong family to you. ”
Li Jin was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Jin'er asks my father-in-law for peace, I will definitely not disappoint my father-in-law's expectations." ”
Dong Yuanwai was moved, and gently helped Li Jin up, his eyes full of love.
The next day, they returned to Dong's house. Although he lost important goods this time, it was a miracle that he was able to save his life. Dong Yuanwai suspected that someone had reported the news, and asked his subordinates to investigate the behind-the-scenes **.
After returning home, Dong Yuanwai announced that he had adopted Li Jin as his adopted son and handed over his property to him to manage. Li Jin's fame thus spread throughout the city.
At this moment, the situation of the Wang family is tense. Wang Yuanwai was furious, smashed the teacup in his hand, and reprimanded with a fierce voice: "This hateful Li Jin dares to destroy the old man's good deeds!."If he hadn't intervened, the old guy would have died long ago. ”
It turned out that the news was deliberately spread by the Wang family. Over the years, the open and secret struggle between the Wang family and the Dong family has lasted for many years, and the two sides will not give in to each other. In view of this, Wang Yuanwai can only resort to such insidious means.
Seeing that his father was so angry, Wang Batian opened his mouth to comfort: "Dad, don't worry, as long as you try to solve Li Jin, we have a way to deal with that old guy." ”
Wang Yuanwai snorted coldly: "Li Jin is strong in martial arts, it is not easy to get rid of him." ”
Wang Batian smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry, the child has a clever plan, you wait for the good news." ”
Subsequently, Wang Batian found Xiaocui. However, at this time, he had long lost interest in Xiaocui, and she was just one of the many concubines. Marrying Xiaocui into the door is purely to take revenge on Li Jin.
Wang Batian said to Xiao Cui: "You want to be free, I'll give you a task." When it is done, I will let your father and daughter go, and there will be a rich silver tael to ensure that you are carefree. ”
Xiaocui was overjoyed when she heard this: "Okay, no matter what, I will agree." ”
Wang Batian whispered a few words in Xiao Cui's ear. However, Xiao Cui immediately refused: "No, this thing is absolutely not feasible, I will never hurt Brother Li Jin." ”
Wang Batian continued to threaten: "You don't have the right to choose. If you dare to refuse, I will throw your father into the river to feed the fish, you don't want something to happen to your father. ”
Xiao Cui was extremely angry, faced with a dilemma, and finally softened: "Okay, I agreed." ”
The next day, Wang Batian announced the dissolution of the marriage contract with Xiaocui. Xiaocui came to Dong's house to look for Li Jin. Knowing that Xiaocui was single again, Li Jin was excited. He knew that Xiaocui was forced at the beginning, and now she still has a good impression of him, so he decided to marry Xiaocui as his wife.
Li Jin took Xiaocui to see his father-in-law. Dong Yuanwai did not discriminate against Xiaocui because of her previous experience, but respected Li Jin's choice, which made Xiaocui feel sincerely moved.
However, suddenly, Xiao Cui fell to her knees in front of them with a thud. No matter how Li Jin tried to persuade him, it was to no avail. Xiaocui said: "Actually, I came here because of Wang Batian's conspiracy. He wanted me to poison the night of the cave house, and then the killers of the Wang family would come and assassinate me. If I didn't, he would have killed my father. ”
Hearing this, Li Jin and Xiaocui were both taken aback. I didn't expect the Wang family to be so insidious. Li Jin gently helped Xiaocui up and decided to fight wits and courage with the Wang family. Dong Yuanwai also expressed his support: "Don't worry, my Dong family will not lose to the Wang family." I will send someone to save your father, so you can prepare for the wedding in peace. ”
After the plan was finalized, the Dong family solemnly announced the good news that Li Jin was about to marry Xiaocui, and the wedding was scheduled to be held in three days.
In the blink of an eye, the moment of the Dong family's wedding came. Due to the good relationship between the directors and the public, the guests who came to congratulate were endless, crowding the huge courtyard, and the scene was extremely warm.
Witnessed by everyone, Li Jin and Xiaocui officially entered the wedding hall, and Dong Yuanwai toasted table by table, aiming to let Li Jin make more contacts and lay the foundation for taking over the Dong family in the future.
With all the guests leaving, Li Jin entered the cave room. However, it didn't take long for the director to come in quietly. He told Li Jin that Xiao Cui's father had been rescued, and Xiao Cui was ecstatic, full of praise for this plan, and looked forward to the next Wang family's plan to go smoothly.
Late at night, the couple turned off the lights and went to bed early. However, at the time of the third watch, a figure suddenly broke in. With a sharp blade in hand, he stabbed at Li Jin on the bed. I thought that Li Jin had been stunned by Xiao Cui, but I didn't expect Li Jin to fight back violently and quickly ** the intruder.
At this moment, a team of officers and soldiers broke in and took the man to the government for interrogation. Under the investigation of the magistrate, it was learned that the long-wanted bandit was entrusted by the Wang family to assassinate Li Jin. What is surprising is that Li Jin actually fought back head-on at a critical moment and took the bandits.
The magistrate was furious after learning that the Wang family had fornicated with the bandits, and immediately went to arrest Wang Yuanwai and others. Faced with the revelation of the matter, Wang Yuanwai had no choice but to admit his crimes over the years, and the Wang family lost its reputation.
After experiencing this twist and turn, Dong Yuanwai decided to entrust everything of the Dong family to Li Jin to take care of. Li Jin also lived up to his father's expectations and successfully expanded the Dong family's industry. Together with Xiaocui, she welcomed three lovely children, and the family enjoyed a happy life.
