There is a man in the village of Nanhe, the man is a single stick, who is 38 years old. The man is a good watermelon grower, and he has planted 10 acres of watermelon in the field outside the village. In order to prevent someone from stealing watermelons, he built a shack on the side of the watermelon field, and as long as there was nothing important, he would stay at the edge of the watermelon field.
One morning, the man suddenly felt unwell, so he went to the town's medical center. After examining his body, Lang Zhong in the medical hall said to him, "Your body is only suffering from a small disease, I will prescribe you a little medicine, and you will be fine after taking the medicine." "The man returned home with the medicine and quickly took it. After he finished his medicine, he rested at home for half a column of incense and went to the watermelon field.
Unexpectedly, when the man walked to the edge of the watermelon field, he suddenly saw a woman lying in the watermelon field, and he thought that the woman was stealing watermelon, so he scolded and ran to the woman. After he ran to the woman's side, the woman said to him weakly, "I was bitten by a poisonous snake." The man looked down and saw a wound on the woman's left calf. The man didn't think much of it, quickly squatted down, and then sucked the venom from the woman's wound with his mouth. After taking the venom, he picked up the woman on his back and walked toward the village. He carried the woman to the door of a house and shouted, "Uncle Wang, hurry up and send me to town." ”
After a while, an old man came out. When the man saw the old man, he said, "This woman has been bitten by a poisonous snake, and you quickly took us to the town's medical center in a carriage." The old man said, "Well, I'll take you to the town's infirmary now." ”
After arriving at the town's medical center, Lang Zhong examined the woman's injuries and said to the man, "If you send half a column of incense later, her life will be in danger." After taking medicine for the woman, LangZhong said to the man, "I have already medicated her, and she will be fine after a few days of rest." After Lang Zhong finished speaking, the man asked the woman, "Where is your home?" I'll send you home. The woman said, "My home is in Wujia Village, so send me to Wujia Village!" The man said, "Good." ”
After the man sent the woman to Wujia Village, he learned that the woman was not from Wujia Village, she just rented a house in Wujia Village, and in the house she rented, there was a boy and a girl, and it looked like the boy was about seven or eight years old, and the girl was about three or four years old. The woman told the man that she was from a foreign country, because of the flood in her hometown, so she and her husband came here with two children and then rented a house in Wujia Village. Half a year ago, her husband died. After her husband's death, she raised two children alone, and her income was only to help the villagers do a little farm work, and the villagers gave her some money and the income she collected some scrap to sell. Today, her two children want to eat watermelon, and she has no money to buy watermelon, so she goes to the man's watermelon field to steal watermelon. What she didn't expect was that when she got to the watermelon field, she was bitten by a poisonous snake. After listening to the woman's words, the man said, "Well, I'll send some watermelons tomorrow." ”
The next morning, the man picked a few watermelons in the watermelon field and then delivered several watermelons to the woman's home. Since then, men have often sent some money to women.
Time passed, and before I knew it, five years had passed. One day, the woman suddenly found the man, and then said to the man: "I heard that my hometown is now living in good conditions, so I want to take my two children back to my hometown, today I came to say goodbye to you." After listening to the woman's words, the man said, "Well, my family still has some money, and I will give you the money." After the man finished speaking, he took out 10 taels of silver from home and handed it to the woman. The woman took the silver and said, "You are really a good person." ”
After the woman left with her two children, the man never saw the woman again. Time passed, unconsciously, more than 20 years passed, the man was old, he could not plant watermelons, the villagers saw him pitiful, often sent him something to eat, even so, he was still hungry and full.
Suddenly, one morning, the new local Zhixian came to Nanhe Village, and he named and looked for a man. It turned out that this new Zhixian was the son of a woman. The woman's son, after meeting the man, told the man that the woman had died 16 years earlier. Before the woman died, she told her son and daughter that she must repay the man in the future, and today he came to pick up the man. It was almost noon when the man followed the woman's son.
