In Lijia Village, there is an orphan girl named Liu Yan'er, who is twenty years old. She is slim and looks from behind, exuding a sense of guilt. However, once viewed from the front, people are discouraged because half of her face is covered with red moles.
Liu Yan'er is not originally a resident of Lijia Village, she came here three years ago to escape the famine. When the people of the village saw that she was lonely, they felt pity for her, so they built two thatched huts and made her a home here.
Liu Yan'er's appearance is not outstanding, and it is even a little difficult to praise, but she has a life-saving skill, that is, helping people deliver babies.
She is kind-hearted, no matter the wind and rain, or the cold and heat, even in the middle of the night, as long as someone asks her for help to deliver the baby, she never refuses.
Liu Yan'er delivered babies for the poor for free, and only charged some symbolic fees for the rich, never asking for excessive payment, so the people around her gave her a thumbs up.
Not only that, Liu Yan'er also often went to the mountains to collect herbs to treat the people in the village. She treats the poor free of charge, and often generously supports the elderly who are lonely.
As the saying goes, "Two good and one good." Liu Yan'er cares for the villagers, who also treat her as family, and every family is willing to share some delicious food with her.
When some elders saw her alone, they had kind thoughts and wanted to find a marriage for her, so that she could have someone to take care of her. However, many men find it difficult to accept their appearance, which also makes it difficult to achieve things.
In fact, Liu Yan'er lived a full and busy life, in addition to delivering babies, she also had to go up the mountain to collect herbs to cure diseases. She never thought about personal issues.
One day, the village's mother-in-law came to her house and told her that she had found a young man, kind and capable, but his family was poor, and there was an old mother who was over sixty years old who needed support, and asked Liu Yan'er if she was willing. Granny Wang knew that she didn't want to think about personal matters now, but she still persuaded her: "Thank you for your mother-in-law's kindness, but I have no plans to get married now." Granny Wang did not give up, and continued to persuade her with kind words, saying that a woman can only be considered complete when she marries and has children, otherwise she will live a lonely and miserable life when she is old.
Then, Granny Wang organized the women of the whole village to come to persuade Liu Yan'er in turn, but she still insisted on her opinion, and everyone saw that she was so stubborn, so they didn't say much.
Liu Yan'er still goes up the mountain every day to collect medicine and treat the villagers, and her life is peaceful and quiet.
One evening, Liu Yan'er had just returned home from collecting medicine, but saw a young man carrying a gray-haired old lady into her house and begging her to save his mother.
The mother and son's clothes were all patched, and they were obviously a poor couple. Liu Yan'er didn't think much about it, and immediately asked the man to put her mother on the bed.
The young man's name was Qiusheng, and he was only twenty-four years old, and the gray-haired old lady was his mother, and everyone called her Mrs. Liu. The mother and son originally lived in a neighboring village.
And Liu Yan'er didn't know that the young man introduced by Granny Wang was Qiusheng.
Liu Yan'er quickly took Mrs. Liu's pulse, then opened her eyelids with her hand to observe it carefully, and then said, "Your mother suffers from vertigo and can't move at will. I will make Chinese medicine for her, and you must let her take it. ”
Liu Yan'er hurriedly walked to the stove room and began to boil medicinal soup and feed it to Mrs. Liu. After an hour, Mrs. Liu finally woke up, and the mother and son were full of gratitude to Liu Yan'er.
Liu Yan'er wrapped several pairs of herbs for Qiusheng and instructed him to take them every morning and evening, and then come to collect them after eating. Qiusheng gratefully took the medicine and went home with his mother on his back.
After a few pairs of medicines, Mrs. Liu's dizziness symptoms were greatly alleviated, and Qiusheng came to Liu Yan'er's house again to receive the medicine, and Mrs. Liu's condition completely improved.
Qiusheng was very grateful to Liu Yan'er, and whenever he had time, he went up the mountain to pick herbs and send them to Liu Yan'er's house. Sometimes he can even catch a hare and bring it to Liu Yan'er, hoping to improve her life.
Liu Yan'er repeatedly refused, suggesting that Qiusheng bring the hare back to add nutrition to Mrs. Liu. But Qiusheng insisted on going to the mountains to catch it again, and insisted on letting Liu Yan'er accept it. In the face of Qiusheng's sincerity, Liu Yan'er reluctantly accepted this heart.
Whenever Liu Yan'er delivered a baby for a wealthy family, they would give her some walnuts, red dates, brown sugar, longan, dim sum and other food, and she would always take these foods back to the village and distribute them to the elderly and poor mothers.
Liu Yan'er accepted the herbs and game sent by Qiusheng, and gave back some red dates and longan for Mrs. Liu to replenish her body. In this way, the two young people gradually became acquainted.
As the saying goes, "love grows over time", in the days of getting along, special emotions quietly bred between Qiusheng and Liu Yan'er, but no one made a clear statement.
Mrs. Liu said to Qiusheng: "Yan'er is a big girl, you have to find out this kind of thing." ”
Qiusheng deeply loves Liu Yan'er's gentleness and kindness, as well as her noble character. I have long wanted to confess to Liu Yan'er, but because of my poor family, I have not been able to muster up the courage.
One day, Qiusheng sent a bundle of herbs and a hare, and finally mustered up the courage to confess to Liu Yan'er.
Liu Yan'er insisted that she did not consider personal problems at the moment, and persuaded Qiusheng to find a suitable girl to marry. However, Qiusheng insisted that he was willing to wait, preferring to wait until Liu Yan'er agreed. Liu Yan'er was moved when she heard this.
One day, Zhang Zhixian's concubine gave birth to a child, and Liu Yan'er was invited to deliver the baby. After entering the delivery room, she saw that the mother was pale and sweating profusely, and she couldn't help but secretly cry out in her heart.
She immediately stepped forward to touch the mother's belly, and the mother-in-law told her that her aunt had been in pain for several hours and told her to hurry up and take measures.
At this time, the pregnant woman is exhausted and precarious, and if she does not take action, I am afraid that her life will be in danger. Liu Yan'er hurriedly asked her mother-in-law to boil hot water, and at the same time prepared cotton cloth and scissors to prepare for the delivery of the mother.
Zhang Zhixian, who was outside the delivery room, was anxious and shouted loudly, hoping to save the child.
As an experienced and stable woman, Liu Yan'er has experienced many similar situations, and the last thing she wants to see is this dilemma. She was determined to do everything possible to save the lives of the mother and her child.
In an emergency, she rolled up her sleeves, soaked a cotton cloth in hot water, covered the woman's abdomen, and gently massaged it on her abdomen with both hands. Outside the delivery room, Zhang Zhixian wandered around anxiously, shouting loudly to ensure the safety of the child.
Liu Yan'er went all out to deal with this emergency.
Two hours later, a healthy baby finally croaked to the ground. Liu Yan'er was so tired that she was sweating profusely and her limbs were weak.
Everyone smiled when they heard the child's cry. Zhang Zhixian happily ran into the delivery room and hugged his son with tears of excitement.
The mother and son were safe, and Zhang Zhixian was grateful to Liu Yan'er and held a banquet to celebrate. Liu Yan'er felt very favored, and only tasted some food symbolically.
In order to express his gratitude, Zhang Zhixian not only gave the remuneration he deserved, but also prepared a few zhang of silk, walnuts, peanuts, longan, and red dates to give Liu Yan'er five catties each. Although Liu Yan'er humbly refused, Zhang Zhixian refused to listen, and personally sent a carriage to send Liu Yan'er and these gifts home.
As soon as she walked to the door of the house, Liu Yan'er saw an old beggar sitting on the ground, looking hungry.
She quickly invited the old beggar into the house, took out longan and red dates for him, and cooked another bowl of noodles. After the old beggar ate the noodles, he was refreshed.
The old beggar advised Liu Yan'er: "Recently, there is a group of bandits preparing to go down the mountain, you have to be careful!."”
After listening to the old beggar's warning, Liu Yan'er said solemnly: "Thank you for the reminder from the uncle, I will deal with it carefully." ”
Five days later, a group of bandits broke into the village and took all the villagers to the threshing floor in the east of the village.
In the face of the bandits, the adults in the village were all pale and trembling with fright, and the parents holding their children were also terrified, and the children were so frightened that they cried incessantly.
A bandit leader with five big and three thick faces and a scar on his face glanced around coldly, and everyone lowered their heads one after another, for fear of angering this fierce and vicious person.
The leader of the bandits said gloomily: "This time we will not take your life when we go down the mountain, only women." With that, he glanced at a group of men around him, and they walked into the crowd and dragged the four young women out.
The women wept in fright, and their parents fell to their knees and begged for mercy, offering their willingness to hand over their food and belongings, begging the bandits to spare their daughter.
However, the scar on the face of the bandit leader became more and more **, and he kicked hard at an old man, who was kicked and flew a few meters away, and the others were so frightened that they were silent.
Scarface orders his men to take the women away, and the women's relatives quietly wipe away their tears, but no one dares to make a sound.
Just as several women were about to be taken away, Liu Yan'er suddenly walked out.
Wait a minute!Her voice was loud and majestic, attracting everyone's attention, and Scarface stopped and looked at Liu Yan'er.
You ugly guy, what right do you have to call the shots?Scarface sneered and glared at Liu Yan'er with disdain.
Liu Yan'er said without showing weakness: "Release them, I am willing to walk with you instead of them." ”
Scarface was about to make a mocking remark, but when he saw Liu Yan'er suddenly turn into a peerless beauty, the words were swallowed back. He looked at Liu Yan'er in a daze, and couldn't say a word.
Liu Yan'er came to Scarface and said firmly: "Let them go, I'm willing to replace them, how about it?"”
Scarface looked at Liu Yan'er's fairy-like face, with a greedy expression in her mouth, and hurriedly nodded: "Okay, good, of course you can, you can change it." ”
Liu Yan'er said with a smile: "You still have a bit of vision, let's go!."”
The villagers were stunned to see Liu Yan'er so beautiful that they couldn't believe their eyes.
Scarface commanded his men to release the women and ordered them to escort Liu Yan'er. However, Liu Yan'er shook off the hands of the bandits and took the initiative to follow behind them, with a calm demeanor.
After Liu Yan'er was taken to the cottage by the bandits, Scarface locked her in a room and left.
On the tiger head chair in the cottage hall sat a man wearing a ghost mask, and Scarface saluted him: "Big brother, I have found a peerless woman, and our cottage will definitely prosper in the future." ”
The masked man stood up and said excitedly, "Okay, pass the order, prepare a sumptuous feast, and get married tonight!"”
After Scarface received the order, he ordered a sumptuous feast to be prepared, and for a time the cottage was lively, and the bandits were busy preparing pigs and sheep wine, full of joy and excitement.
The man wearing the mask came to the room where Liu Yan'er was detained in person, and when he saw that she was as beautiful as a flower, he was overjoyed, and said with emotion: "Sure enough, she is a peerless woman, and the country is beautiful!."”
Liu Yan'er was relieved when she saw the man walking at the foot of the slope, this was exactly the person she was looking for.
The little girl meets the king!Liu Yan'er smiled and bowed to the ghost-faced man.
The ghost-faced man looked at her even more fondly, and said, "You don't have to be polite, beauty, we will become husband and wife tonight." Liu Yan'er smiled and didn't say much.
A moment later, two women walked into the room with a red wedding dress and began to help Liu Yan'er change her clothes.
Liu Yan'er put on a red wedding dress, put on a phoenix crown and a bun, and wore a red hijab embroidered with a mandarin duck playing in the water pattern on her head, and was led out of the room by two maids to marry the ghost-faced man.
At the same time, after Liu Yan'er was taken away by the bandits, Lijia Village was immersed in sadness. The villagers felt guilty for being sorry for Liu Yan'er, and at the same time wondered about the change in Liu Yan'er's appearance.
After learning the news that Liu Yan'er was taken away by the bandits, Qiusheng in the neighboring village was extremely angry, holding a kitchen knife and going up the mountain to fight the bandits. Mrs. Wang hurriedly stepped forward to grab him and persuaded him: "If you go like this, you will only be sent to death, and you will not be able to save Liu Yan'er, once you die, what will the old lady do!."As he spoke, he burst into tears.
Qiusheng gradually calmed down under the persuasion of his mother, and insisted: "Yan'er is a kind girl, we can't sit idly by!."”
Mrs. Wang said with tears in her eyes: "Miss Liu is kind to us, of course I want to save her, but you have to recognize the situation and not act blindly." ”
In the late-night discussion between the mother and son, they comprehensively considered the situation and finally decided to go to Lijia Village.
Qiusheng found the village chief of Lijia Village and asked him to organize the young people of the village to rescue Liu Yan'er.
Although the village chief is also eager to save Liu Yan'er, he is well aware of the brutal methods of the bandits, and understands that the villagers will only die in vain if they go.
At Mrs. Wang's insistence, the village chief said bitterly: "Liu Yan'er is a kind girl, and the whole village can't bear to let her be arrested." But the bandits are armed with firearms, and they are all ruthless, and we can't save her if we go, but we may take our lives in vain. Death is terrible, but it is even more afraid of angering the bandits and bringing ruin to the entire village. ”
At this moment, a group of young men stepped forward and asked to go and save Liu Yan'er without hesitation.
Someone said: "Miss Liu was taken away by bandits for us, we can't be ungrateful, even if we fight for our lives." ”
Yes, we must save people, and we can't let her suffer in vain. ”
Village chief, you are responsible for arranging the transfer of the old, weak, sick and disabled villagers, and we young and middle-aged men will go up the mountain to rescue Miss Liu together. ”
In the face of everyone's resolute decision, the village chief had to agree. So, he organized the young and middle-aged men of Lijia Village and Qiusheng to go up the mountain to rescue together while the moon was dark and the wind was high.
The words changed suddenly, the lights in the cottage were brilliant, and the ghost-faced man was surrounded by bandits, which was very lively. The two maids led Liu Yan'er to the ghost-faced man, the two worshiped heaven and earth first, followed by husband and wife, and finally Liu Yan'er was led into the cave room.
The ghost-faced man raised his glass and drank with the bandits.
As the wine grew, the ghost-faced man remembered that the bride was as beautiful as a fairy but looked uneasy, so he left the table and went to the cave room.
He lifted Liu Yan'er's red hijab, and his eyes lit up in an instant, and he was very moved. Liu Yan'er glanced up at him, lowered her head shyly, and her cheeks flushed crimson.
When the ghost-faced man saw her shy appearance, his heart fluttered, and he reached out to touch Liu Yan'er's face.
Liu Yan'er sensitively avoided it, and said gently: "Xianggong doesn't have to be impatient, now that we have become husband and wife, we should be honest with each other." Why don't you take off your mask and share the reality of husband and wife?”
The conversation changed again, and Liu Yan'er said with some hesitation: "Xianggong, you still wear a mask when you round the room, I am easy to get nervous when I am afraid, for fear that it will affect our interest." ”
The ghost-faced man smiled, "Tonight is the day we become husband and wife, and we should be honest with each other. It's just that I'm worried that I'll scare the lady when I take off the mask. ”
Liu Yan'er responded: "Marrying a chicken and marrying a dog is a dog, even if it is a flat burden, I am willing to carry it away." ”
The ghost-faced man was overjoyed when he heard this, and took off the mask without hesitation, so that Liu Yan'er could see his true face clearly.
The man was handsome, not as terrible as he said.
It's finally waiting for you!Liu Yan'er couldn't help but say what was in her heart, but the man only cared about joy and didn't delve into her words.
The two raised their glasses and drank together, and the man proposed to let Liu Yan'er sit down and rest earlier. Liu Yan'er was unwilling to go to bed with loose clothes.
She delayed the time on the grounds that she was unwell, but the man felt a cold wind hit him, and he was depressed. He said: "On the wedding night, why not have a round house?"Anyway, I want to do something to Liu Yan'er.
Liu Yan'er suddenly pulled out a short knife from her waist and stabbed at the man. The man wittily dodged away, and a sweeping leg almost tripped Liu Yan'er.
The man was furious, waving his fists and kicks while asking, "Who the hell are you?"”
Liu Yan'er replied with a sneer: "I am the one who came to take your life!."”
The man was even more angry, and his fists and feet struck in a row, and Liu Yan'er dodged lightly, while seizing the opportunity to counterattack.
In the new house, the atmosphere of the fight became more and more intense, and the two of them came and went, and the battle was stalemate.
Just then, an unexpected person broke into the new house.
Liu Yan'er was surprised to find that that person was actually an old beggar!How did he end up here?
The man was also surprised to see the old beggar, and couldn't help exclaiming: "Old fellow, why are you here?"”
The old beggar said coldly: "Hand over the martial arts cheats, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind!."”
The man let out a sneer, a red light flashed in his eyes, and the whole person became hideous and terrifying, and suddenly pounced on the old beggar.
The old beggar moved his hands and engaged in a fierce struggle with the man. Liu Yan'er quickly joined, and the three of them went back and forth, striking left and right, forcing the man into a corner.
In the end, the old beggar and Liu Yan'er worked together and successfully tied up the man. Liu Yan'er curiously asked the old beggar how he learned about the martial arts secret book.
It turned out that this old beggar was Liu Yan'er's uncle, who had left the school when he was young, so Liu Yan'er didn't know him. Uncle Shi revealed that the bandit leader Yu Daqing was their senior brother, who had stolen the martial arts secret book before Liu Yan'er was adopted by **, and hid it.
Yu Daqing occupied the mountain alone as the king, practiced martial arts secrets, and his martial arts advanced by leaps and bounds. However, his cultivation went mad and became more and more evil, becoming an unrivaled existence in the rivers and lakes.
At present, Yu Daqing poses a huge threat to the martial arts world, if it is not stopped, not only the martial arts world will suffer disasters, but ordinary people will not be spared.
* Chu Batian felt a great responsibility and decided to eliminate this scum who betrayed his master. He sent his youngest apprentice, Liu Yan'er, to lurk in Lijia Village for many years.
When the time was ripe, Chu Batian contacted his junior brother, that is, the old beggar, to jointly assist Liu Yan'er in arresting Yu Daqing.
The old beggar disguised himself as a feng shui gentleman and went to the mountains to tell fortunes for the bandits, claiming that there was a strange woman in Lijia Village, and as long as she became the lady of the village, the village would prosper. Yu Daqing listened to his words and sent Scarface to Lijia Village to arrest the young woman.
Scarface doesn't know which woman is the one who really hit Wangfu, so he plans to capture several young women back to the mountain.
Liu Yan'er's goal is to get close to Yu Daqing, and when the opportunity comes, she reveals her true identity. Scarface took a fancy to her beauty at a glance and decided that she was the Wangfuqi woman in Mr. Feng Shui's mouth, so he took her back to the cottage to become the lady of the village.
The old beggar and Liu Yan'er successfully captured Yu Daqing and forced him to hand over the martial arts cheats.
At the same time, Qiusheng led the villagers to the cottage. Seeing that the bandits were already drunk, they moved quickly and tied up Scarface and several other leaders.
The old beggar escorted Yu Daqing away, preparing to hand him over to his senior brother Chu Batian for personal trial.
These bandits did many evils, and the people hated them. Despite repeated official attempts to apprehend him, he was unsuccessful. Now that they have been captured by Liu Yan'er, Qiusheng and others, the magistrate has put these criminals in prison and is ready to be beheaded after the autumn. Subsequently, they also awarded certificates to Liu Yan'er, Qiusheng and others in recognition of their heroic deeds.
Liu Yan'er successfully completed the task assigned to her. She no longer wants to be caught in the maelstrom of battle. With the consent of **, she decided to stay in Lijia Village.
Qiusheng proposed to Liu Yan'er again, and Liu Yan'er readily agreed. Soon after, the two tied the knot, and the husband and wife were deeply in love.
After marriage, Liu Yan'er still devoted herself to midwifery, and Qiusheng also followed his wife to learn medical skills and became a Langzhong who could diagnose diseases.
The husband and wife honored their mother, practiced medicine to help the world, provided free medical treatment for the poor, and accumulated good deeds. They had a son and a daughter, and the son inherited his father's business and became a generation of famous doctors, whose fame has been passed down through the ages. The daughter also married into a happy family. 100 help plan
