In ancient times, in Zhaojiazhuang, Huai'an County, there was a widow named Song Jinlian.
Song Jinlian was originally a native of Huizhou, but later fled to Huai'an County. At that time, she was homeless and wandering in the streets, but fortunately she was taken in by the town's mother-in-law, who had no children and no daughters under her knees, so she adopted Song Jinlian as her adopted daughter, and from then on, the mother and daughter relied on each other for their lives.
It is said that Song Jinlian looks like a national color heavenly immortal, since the princess entrusted her to start a family, for a time many rich princes have come to propose to her, but the princess knows the dirty thoughts of these rich princes, they are just coveting the beauty of their daughters.
For the sake of her daughter's lifelong happiness, the queen mother finally gave Song Jinlian xu to the butcher Ma Sanbao.
Although Ma Sanbao was short and ugly, he was loyal and honest.
The queen mother was very optimistic about Ma Sanbao, thinking that if her daughter married this person, although she would not live a rich life, she would be very happy; besides, Song Jinlian was a woman of her duty, and she only wanted to find an honest person to live a good life. Although in the eyes of outsiders, Ma Sanbao is not worthy of herself, she believes that Ma Sanbao is a person who can be trusted.
Later, the two became related to each other and have been married ever since.
Under the careful management of the couple, the days are getting better and better.
Two years later, Song Jinlian gave birth to a daughter, named Ma Xiangmei.
It is said that one afternoon, the husband and wife rushed home from the market, and suddenly Zhang Kai from the neighboring village came to visit.
It turned out that Zhang Kai was a hunter, and that day he went into the mountains to hunt and accidentally caught a small wolf.
Zhang Kai plans to sell wolf meat for money, he thinks of his friend Ma Sanbao selling meat in the town, so he sends the little wolf and asks him to help sell it.
Ma Sanbao took a look at the little wolf and felt that it was quite pitiful, thinking that if he sold it, he would not be able to exchange it for much money; but Zhang Kai insisted on selling it, and he had to agree.
Zhang Kai left, and Ma Sanbao took a closer look and found that the little wolf's legs were injured and seemed to be serious.
Soon Song Jinlian brought herbs to heal the little wolf
After discussing that night, the couple decided to let the little wolf have a way to live.
The next day, Ma Sanbao gave Zhang Kai two or two pieces of silver, falsely claiming that the little wolf had been bought; in fact, he and his wife placed the little wolf in the kitchen.
Under the careful care of Ma Sanbao and his wife, the little wolf finally recovered from his injuries, and then the two took the little wolf to the foot of the mountain in the suburbs.
The little wolf ran toward the forest and looked back at them, as if to thank them for saving their lives.
Fast forward 18 years, during which Ma Sanbao died of illness, leaving Song Jinlian and her daughter to rely on each other.
It is said that the daughter Ma Xiangmei is young and beautiful, Song Jinlian still does not reduce the beauty of the year, the mother and daughter are beautiful, and they have attracted many rich businessmen to come to talk for a while, but they have turned these people away.
Finally, one day, their beauty caused a catastrophe.
It is said that Song Jinlian's room has been in a bed for more than ten years, and every time she sleeps on it, she feels shaky.
On that day, Song Jinlian and her daughter discussed and decided to find a carpenter to help make a new bed.
Later, Song Jinlian found out that there was a carpenter named Wang San in the town who had good craftsmanship and a very affordable salary, so the mother and daughter asked Wang San to come to the house to help make a bed.
The next day, Wang San came to the Song widow's house early, worked all day, and finally made a big bed.
At that time, Wang San saw that the life of the widow of Song was not easy, so he did not ask for wages.
The widow song was very touched, and in order to express her gratitude, she and her daughter hurriedly made a table of dishes and warmly welcomed Wang San.
At this time, it was late, and Wang San drank a few glasses of wine.
After drinking and eating, Wang San secretly looked at the Song widows, and then looked at Ma Xiangmei, and was sucked by their beauty for a while.
Soon Wang San had an uneasy thought, and he wanted to take advantage of the dark night to dominate the two.
Suddenly, Wang San closed the door of the courtyard and blocked the way for the two of them.
Song Jinlian was very regretful, she originally thought that Wang San was a loyal and honest person, but she did not expect him to see it.
At this moment, Song Jinlian desperately wrapped her arms around Wang San, and then let her daughter flee quickly.
Knowing that Wang San's strength was incomparable, he easily pushed Song Jinlian to the ground, and then put his arms around Ma Xiangmei.
Song Jinlian knelt on the ground and cried and begged Wang San to spare her daughter.
Wang San burst out laughing.
Just then, a wolf jumped in.
When Wang San saw that the situation was not right, he threw up his legs and ran,
When he opened the courtyard door, he immediately sat paralyzed on the ground.
He never expected that more than 20 wolves appeared at the door, and it turned out that the wolf in the courtyard was the wolf king.
Watching the Wolf King walk over step by step, Wang San fell to his knees in fear and begged for forgiveness.
The wolf king did not pay attention, and then it roared, and soon the group of black wolves outside the courtyard rushed in and took Wang San away.
Wang San died, and the Wolf King quietly walked over to Song Jinlian and threw himself into her arms like a child.
Song Jinlian cried, not expecting that the Wolf King had saved their mother and daughter.
Suddenly the Wolf King spat out, "Benefactor, don't you remember me?" I was the little wolf of that year, it was you and Engong who saved my life, and now I have become the wolf king of the steppe. ”
Then the Wolf King was gone.
From then on, from time to time, there would be several wolves crying near Song Jinlian's home, and Song Jinlian knew that this was the wolf king protecting her and her daughter at all times.
