One day, the man was walking on the street, met a Taoist monk, the Taoist priest looked at him, and said firmly, you are doomed to be childless in this life, soon you will have a catastrophe, the man listened to the half-belief, one day when he was walking by the river, he met a young woman, and the next thing that happened was unexpected.

In ancient times, there was a merchant in Anhui, who had no wife and children when he was forty years old, and he was running around all day, and one day he went to Suzhou to collect firewood, and when he was walking on the street, he met a Taoist monk, who looked at him and said sadly: "Are you forty years old this year?" Haven't you married and had children yet? ”

After hearing this, the merchant was very surprised and quickly replied: "Yes sir, what's wrong?" The Taoist priest said mysteriously, "You will not have a son in the future, because you will soon encounter a great disaster." Just when the merchant wanted to ask the truth, the Daoist priest shook his head and turned away.

Although the merchant was half suspicious, he still had a grudge in his heart about this matter, and thought to himself, hurry up and finish the firewood, and go home quickly, not wanting anything to happen, but when he finished collecting the firewood, Tiangong was not beautiful.

It turned out that Suzhou was in the thunderstorm season, the river was soaring, could not sail, the merchant could only live in an inn every day, just like this for two days, the sky finally cleared, the merchant who had been suffocating for a long time, decided to go for a walk by the river.

When he reached the river, he saw a woman committing suicide in the distance, so he hurried to the boatman and said, "You hurry up and rescue her, and I will give you twenty-two pieces of silver." When the boatman heard this, he hurried to the rescue, and when he did not save the woman, the merchant gave the boatman twenty-two pieces of silver.

The merchant was very confused and asked the woman: "Girl, you are well-behaved, why do you want to seek short-sightedness?" The woman said: "Hey, the family is poor, I raised a pig, originally intended to use it to pay back the rent, but the pig was sold, but what was recovered was all fake silver, the husband knew, he will definitely blame me, so he let me die." After saying that, the woman began to cry again.

After the merchant heard this, he sympathized with her very much, so he asked the woman: "How much is that pig in your house worth?" The woman told her truthfully, and after that, the merchant gave her double the silver two, and the woman took the silver, prostrated her head in thanks, wiped the tears from her face, and returned home.

After returning home, the woman told her husband what had happened, and when the husband heard it, he was very suspicious and said, "Is there such a good thing in the world?" Does this person have any ulterior motives with you? As soon as the woman heard it, she quickly explained that Engong lived in an inn not far away, and I didn't believe you could ask me with me.

In the evening, the couple arrived at the merchant's inn, at which time the merchant was asleep, and was awakened by a knock at the door, asking, "It's so late, who?" ”

The husband hurriedly pushed the woman, and the woman said, "Sir, I am the woman who was rescued by you today. When the merchant heard this, he said very angrily: "You are a married woman, I am a lone foreigner, how can we meet casually at night?" You go back quickly, there is something to say tomorrow. ”

Upon hearing this, the woman's husband eliminated his doubts and felt guilty in his heart, so he quickly said: "Engong, I am his husband, our husband and wife are together to thank Engong, open the door quickly." When the merchants heard this, they put on their clothes and got up to open the door for them.

Just when the merchant walked out of the door, only to hear a rumble in the house, the three people listened and quickly ran into the house to see what was going on, the original wall of the guest room was poured down because of the soaking of the rain, the bed had been crushed at this time, the merchant looked at it, sighed, and said to the little couple: "The person who should be thankful should be me, if you had not come, I am afraid that I would have died by now." ”

Later, on the way home, the merchant met the Taoist again, and when the Daoist saw him, he was very surprised and said, "Look at the blessings on your face, you must have done great good deeds, and you will receive unlimited blessings in the future." Later, the merchant married and had children, and lived until he was 80 years old before he died.
