During the Wu Zetian period of the Tang Dynasty, there was a family surnamed Zhan in the small mountain village, a family of five. The old man surnamed Zhan is nearly 60 years old and still working in the fields. People of his age have long been retired at home. It's just weird, his luck is bad, his daughter-in-law is a tigress.
His daughter-in-law's surname is Lu, but her heart is as vicious as a snake and scorpion, but her temper is as violent as a tiger, and her neighbors have learned her greatness, so they call her a tigress behind her back. The old man surnamed Zhan did not dare to stay at home, if he did not go out to work, the Lu family would scold Sang at home, be furious, and not give food at night. In order not to go hungry, the old man surnamed Zhan had to succumb, even if he was sick, he had to go to work in the fields.
At noon on this day, the Lu family delivered food, put it in the field and left. The old man surnamed Zhan opened the lunch box and found that today's meal was better, with fish and meat, which was really unprecedented, usually it was either porridge with pickles, or two pancakes.
The old man surnamed Zhan was overjoyed, and he lowered his head to eat, and his dog ran over and shouted, "Don't you want to die?"I can't eat this meal, so put it down. ”
This dog came by himself 5 years ago. At that time, it was still a small milk dog, and he didn't know that he came from **, and he refused to leave at his house. The deer didn't like it, refused to feed it, and drove it away with a broom, but couldn't drive it away, so the old man surnamed Zhan quietly fed it. When it grew up and was able to take care of the home, the Lu clan accepted it and fed it.
The dog was able to speak, which really frightened the old man surnamed Zhan, he took a few steps back, he was unsteady on his feet, the lunch box fell down, and all the food fell into the soil. Come on, I can't eat it if I want to. He asked, "Why do you speak?".”
The dog said, "I'm different, I'm not a normal reincarnated dog, so I can speak human words, but I just don't dare to speak." And so it began.
Today, there is a guest at home, who is it?It's Lu's uncle. This old man was kind-hearted, and when he learned that Lu was abusing his father-in-law, he came to the door to educate his niece. Lu Shi admitted his mistake on the surface and treated his uncle warmly, but he transferred his anger to his father-in-law, and sprinkled medicinal powder in the fish meat with a ruthless heart. The dog happened to see all this, so he ran to stop the old man surnamed Zhan from eating.
While he was talking, a vole smelled the aroma, ran to eat a piece of meat, and died on the spot, and the old man surnamed Zhan believed the dog's words, and he took a hoe and buried the food in the soil, so as not to harm the small animals in the wild.
In the evening, on the way home, the old man surnamed Zhan couldn't help but cry. The dog comforted and said: "Don't be sad, the Lu clan will be retributed, and in 3 days, he will be killed by thunder!."The old man surnamed Zhan was stunned for a moment and did not make a sound.
Back at home, Lu Shi asked in surprise, didn't he eat at noon?The old man surnamed Zhan said: "The lunch box fell into the ditch, so I didn't eat it. Lu Shi glanced at him and said, "It's a pity that it's a good meal!"”
In the middle of the night, the old man surnamed Zhan sneaked out of the door and ran to the land temple to pray: "Lord Land, you help me tell Shangtian, don't kill my daughter-in-law Lu, although she is at fault, but she is the mother of two children, and this family still needs her to manage." The dog stood behind and was silent.
The old man surnamed Zhan prayed for three nights in a row, and on the morning of the fourth day, it rained, lightning and thunder roared, and Lu Shi was standing in the corridor, and suddenly he was struck by lightning and fell to the ground. It's okay, just a toe was broken.
This accident did not wake up the Lu family, but instead took his anger at the father-in-law, and ran to scold him, thinking that he was a disaster star, so he would attract thunder.
The dog couldn't bear it anymore, and while Lu was cooking in the kitchen and there was no one around, he said to her: "You blame your father-in-law, if he hadn't interceded, you would have been killed by thunder." Lu Shi was furious and scolded: "You mouthy thing!.""Picked up a kitchen knife and hacked the dog to death.
In the middle of the night, Lu dreamed of his mother-in-law Ma, and Ma spoke. It turned out that after she died, she couldn't rest assured that she couldn't leave her wife and didn't go to reincarnation. One day, she saw that a dog was about to give birth, so she jumped into the dog's belly, gave birth, and ran to the house, and she was the dog in the house.
Ma stopped her from eating, and the old man knelt in the land temple and prayed, begging not to punish Lu, all in detail. Speaking of this, Ma sighed and said: "You hacked the dog to death, I won't go to the underworld to sue you, just like your father-in-law thinks, I hope this family is good, and I don't want to break up this family." I hope you will come to your senses and not waste all our hard work. ”
Lu suddenly woke up, and his heart was touched, after that, he would no longer force the old man surnamed Zhan to go to the field, nor would he scold him, so that he could retire at home with peace of mind. The old man surnamed Zhan lived a comfortable life for several years and later passed away.
However, after Lu Shi was old, he was paralyzed in bed for several years and suffered a lot. Some people say that this is retribution, but I don't know if it's true.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, how many parents have chosen forbearance and forgiveness for the sake of family harmony and beauty. I wish all families in the world happiness!This story adopts an absurd penmanship, which is to use facts to illustrate and persuade the world, and has nothing to do with feudal superstition.
