Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge There is a scholar Yang Yun in Caozhou, whose family is poor, and he is ready to go to the capital to get an errand.
On the way, he passed a shop and saw several people beating a guy around the door.
The guy looked like he was in his twenties, tall and burly, but he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands and was beaten, and he didn't fight back.
There were many onlookers on the side, but no one stepped forward to persuade them.
Yang Yun couldn't stand it anymore and asked why he beat him.
The shopkeeper said that he was a guy in the shop and had lost a silver ticket and had been beaten.
Previously, Yang Yun picked up a silver ticket of two hundred taels and held it in his arms. He asked the shopkeeper how much money was on the ticket and what date it was
The shopkeeper said that it was just right, and Yang Yun returned the silver ticket to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper asked the guy to let go, and the guy stood up and said, "My name is Li Er, may I ask the name of Engongzun?"
Yang Yun said: Yang Yun of Caozhou.
Li Er made a gesture, didn't say a word of thanks, left the store, and left.
Three years later, Cao Yun earned a little money and rode back to his hometown.
On this day, the horses walked more slowly, it was getting dark, and they had not yet reached the city, and there was no village or shop on the road, only a wilderness.
Suddenly a band of robbers came out, robbed him of his horses and baggage, and tried to kill him.
Yang Yun hurriedly shouted: I, Yang Yun of Caozhou, I don't know you, I have no chance or hatred, and the things have already been given to you, why do you want to kill me.
One of them asked: Are you Yang Yun of Caozhou?
Yang Yun said: Exactly.
The man said: My eldest brother often mentions that there is a Caozhou Yang Yun, who is his benefactor, and it is you.
Yang Yun asked: Who is your eldest brother?
The man said, "How can I tell you the name of my eldest brother casually, and take you to the mountain first, and let my eldest brother see if it is?"If not, it's not too late to kill you.
The robbers tied Yang Yun, blindfolded him, and took him to a stockade on the mountain, where there were more than a dozen robbers.
When the eldest brother saw Yang Yun, he immediately called for loosening the tie and said: This person is Engong.
Yang Yun didn't know him.
The man said: Three years ago, the benefactor found a silver ticket and returned it to the shopkeeper, so that I was spared a beating, but do you remember?
Yang Yun then remembered that he was Li Er.
Li Er warmly welcomed him and stayed with him for a few days.
Yang Yun was in a hurry to go home, and Li Er sent two of his subordinates to escort him to his hometown, and also gave him a box of gold and silver.
When parting, Yang Yun said: You are extraordinary, you have good skills, if you are looking for a serious errand, you will definitely be able to get ahead, why do you want to do such a criminal thing.
Li Er said sincerely: I was desperate at the beginning, so I fell into the grass;Eun Gong's words, I will consider it carefully.
When Yang Yun returned home, his family was preparing for him.
He and Su Niang, the girl of the Jiang family, are childhood sweethearts, and they have been engaged since childhood, and they only waited for an auspicious day to greet their relatives.
Unfortunately, at that time, the Yellow River was flooded, and the houses on both sides of the river were washed away, and some of the residents were flooded, and some of them fled for refuge.
The Jiang family also lives on the edge of the Yellow River, and the family is gone, and I don't know whether they are dead or alive.
Yang Yun inquired for a long time, but there was no news from the Jiang family, so he had to plan to marry another, but he never found a suitable woman.
A few years passed, and he got a job in the local government office, and he was still single.
That year, there was a rebellion in the place, and a group of rebels captured the government and killed many people.
When the bandit leader saw Yang Yun's handsome appearance, he didn't kill him, took him to the camp, and wanted to marry his daughter to him.
Yang Yun refused to accept it, and the bandit leader raised a knife to kill him, so he had to agree.
On the night of the candles in the cave room, Yang Yun saw that the bride was not too young.
He asked the woman how old she was, and she said, "Twenty-six."
At that time, Yang Yun was nearly thirty years old, and he was very happy to see that the woman's appearance was still very beautiful.
The woman refused to be married to him, crying: I have been married to Yang Yun of Caozhou since I was a child, and now I am forced to marry you, if you are strong, I would rather commit suicide.
Yang Yun was taken aback and asked: Are you the daughter of the Jiang family?
The woman said, "Exactly."
Yang Yun said: I am Yang Yun, why did your father become a traitor?
Su Niang carefully inquired about Yang Yun's birthday and the date of marriage, confirmed that he was Yang Yun, and immediately turned from sadness to joy and told him about it.
It turned out that the flood that year, Jiang's family was flooded, and Jiang Laohan and his wife fled to Hebei with Su Niang.
Jiang Laohan wanted to find another family for Su Niang to marry, but Su Niang insisted on refusing to remarry.
But they were left behind, with poor food and clothing, and they didn't return to their hometowns, so they could only drag it all the time, and gradually dragged Su Niang into an old girl.
Later, Jiang Laohan and his wife died of illness one after another, leaving only Su Niang. She was lonely and wanted to commit suicide, but was discovered by this bandit leader.
The bandit leader said that Su Niang looked like his daughter who died at an early age, so he adopted her as a righteous daughter.
Su Niang persuaded her father-in-law not to be a traitor, but the bandit leader had a domineering temper and refused to listen. He wanted to find a husband for Su Niang, and Su Niang couldn't resist.
Now, Yang Yun and Su Niang have reunited after a long absence, and they have become husband and wife, which is really an unexpected surprise. However, the two are in a bandit den, unable to leave, and worry about it every day.
Soon, the officers and soldiers called, the bandit leader was killed, Yang Yun and the remaining living bandits were arrested, and Su Niang and some women were locked up.
The general who led the troops sat under the big tent, told the soldiers to bring the thieves one by one, interrogated them a few times, and then pulled them down and cut them down.
Then, Yang Yun was brought over, his eyes were black, and he thought that he was the son-in-law of the bandit leader, and he must die.
The general glanced at him, but asked in surprise: Isn't this Yang Yun?
Yang Yun looked up and saw that the general was Li Er, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Er said to the generals next to him: He is my friend, and he is definitely not a bandit.
He asked the soldier to let Yang Yun go and asked him why he was here.
Yang Yun hurriedly said: I took my wife to my mother-in-law's house, and I met this gang of bandits on the way, so I was arrested.
Li Er asked: Where is Mrs. Zun?
Yang Yun said: I was also arrested, and I must have been locked up with women.
Li Er hurriedly called someone to the women's prison, found Su Niang, and brought her out.
Yang Yun and Su Niang thanked Li Er, Li Er said: When I was rescued by my benefactor and guided by my benefactor's kind words, I had the way out today, and I should be grateful to my benefactor.
After the rebellion was quelled, the officers and soldiers withdrew, and Li Er took Su Niang home and lived a stable life.
