The historical Han Xin was a mighty and famous general.

But before he became a general, he was just an ordinary civilian. Due to his family's poverty, he often fished outside the city to make a living. Even with all this effort, he often starved.

There was an old woman who saw this young man fishing on the river bank every day and felt pity. As soon as she chatted, she learned about the miserable living conditions of the young man, so she often found excuses to help him. Every few days, she invited Han Xin to dinner at home. Han Xin was very grateful for the old woman's help, so he swore to her: "You can rest assured, when I am soaring, I will definitely repay you heavily." ”

The old woman laughed and comforted him: "You don't have to do this, you can grow up healthily!" ”

Later, Han Xin laid the foundation for Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, and was crowned the King of Chu. After settling down, he remembered the old woman who had helped him. Therefore, he arranged for his subordinates to go down to find the whereabouts of the old woman and send her a thousand taels of gold as a token of thanks.
