Once upon a time, a man was picking eggs in his own chicken coop. Suddenly, a monk came to the door and begged. The man gave the monk a basket of eggs. During the chat, he talked about strange things happening in the house. Since getting married, there has been one less chicken in the family every day, but no one has stolen it. It's really puzzling. The monk looked at his wife and said, "Donor, you really don't know what a good blessing is, you can only get what you give, you make money."

This man's name was Li Meng. His family came from Lijiazhuang outside Luofu City. His parents died when he was young. Growing up, he learned to rely on the few acres of thin land left by his parents to grow vegetables with the villagers. Due to proper management and the fact that he likes to eat snacks and white family meals since he was a child, his small business is thriving.

The only downside is that Lemon doesn't have parents at home because he's not good enough. He commissioned several matchmakers to marry him. They all died in the sea. No girl wanted to marry him. So far, he is single. Seeing the children of the same age in the village running around, Li Meng's heart was full of bitterness

But the days have to go on. One day, Lee pulled a cart of fresh vegetables along a mountain path. Suddenly, it started to rain heavily. He quickly parked his car under a large tree on the side of the road, picked up a coconut raincoat, covered it with vegetables, and went to the car to shelter from the rain. Suddenly, a fox ran over to his car to shelter from the rain.

Li Meng looked at the wet fox, and the fox looked at him pitifully. Li Meng couldn't bear to drive him away. After an hour, the rain finally stopped. The fox sniffed and left. Li Meng checked the vegetables. He wasn't wet from the rain, so he drove the vegetables to restaurants in town

When I got home, I was cleaning up the vegetable leaves left in the car, ready to throw them away. When the neighbor Uncle Zhang saw it, he said, "Child, so many vegetable leaves have been thrown away, so buy some chickens to feed them." You don't have to feed food every day. You alone sell enough leftover leaves to raise chickens. When the chickens grow up, you can sell not only chickens, but also eggs! Then he picked up some vegetable leaves and went home to feed the chickens

Remembering Uncle Zhang's words, Li Meng suddenly woke up. Yes, why didn't he think of feeding the chickens with vegetable leaves? Not only can he eat meat, but he can also sell it for money. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone? After selling the vegetables the next day, I went to the market to buy ten chickens and started raising chickens.

Soon, the chickens grew up, and some of them had already begun to lay eggs. Somewhat successful, Lemon expanded the scale, built a chicken coop in the yard, and raised 50 or 60 chickens.

A year later, Li Meng once went to the market to sell vegetables and eggs. As soon as he got home, he saw a beggar crouching in front of his house. Seeing his pity, Li Meng boiled some eggs. The beggar devoured it for a while and soon burped

Li Mengcai said a few words, only to learn that the beggar was a woman named Sanniang, who had escaped from somewhere else. His parents starved to death on their way out. Li Meng looked at this ragged, hungry woman. He remembered the memories of hunger in his childhood. He couldn't stand it right away. He said to the woman, "Girl, now you have no one to rely on." You'd better be with me and raise chickens for me every day. I care about your food and accommodation. Do you think it's okay? Hearing this, the woman readily agreed.

At night, when she went to bed, the woman boiled water to take a bath, but there were no women's clothes at home. Li Meng had to find clean clothes for women to wear. When the woman took a bath, she saw that although the woman was not suitable, she was beautiful, and her skin was like frozen snow. Li Meng was stunned at a glance, and wanted to get married and have children more and more

Since then, the two have been in love for a long time. Once, Li Meng drank a few more glasses of dinner, and took advantage of the strength of the wine to confide in the third lady. Third Niang listened, nodded in shame, and agreed. In this way, the two were married before heaven and earth

After getting married, they fell in love, but soon a strange thing happened in the family, that is, there was one less chicken in the family every day. At first, Li Meng thought it was a thief. In order to catch the thief, he stayed in the chicken coop for several nights and did not find anyone stealing chickens. That day, Li Meng finished counting the chickens and found that there was one missing. He sighed secretly. He could only ask the third lady to go and collect eggs together. He had just picked up half a basket when he suddenly heard a knock at the door. Li Meng quickly stood up and opened the door. He saw a monk appear before him. After seeing Li Meng, he folded his hands and said, "I want to go down the mountain to get rich, pass by the donor's door, and hope that the donor can help me." "When Li Meng was a child, he did not go to the temple on the mountain to steal tribute, so now he sees that this monk is very kind. He hurriedly welcomed him to the hospital. He remembered the half basket of eggs he had just picked up, and persuaded the third lady to fill them up, hand them to the master, and then pour tea for the monk to drink.

The monk chatted with Li Meng while drinking tea. Lemon talked about the strange things that had happened at home. At this time, a third mother came to him with a basket of eggs. The monk looked at the Third Mother, smiled and said to Li Meng, "Amitabha, Lord, you have a deep blessing. You have not been married in your life, but you have a good heart and done good things. It's worth it to trade this chicken for a beautiful wife! Then he laughed and left

Li Meng looked at his cunning wife and thought about what the monk had said before leaving. He looked at his wife suspiciously. Seeing her husband's suspicions, the third lady took the initiative to reveal her true identity

It turned out that she was a fox fairy who had been practicing for many years. Because Li Meng wanted to repay his kindness that day, they were married for a long time, and the third lady was pregnant because she had been married for many days, so she took advantage of Li Meng's opportunity to go out to sell vegetables and secretly eat chicken every day to supplement nutrition. I didn't expect that the monk who came to the door to give alms today could see through it at a glance, but because the third lady had never done anything to hurt others, the monk did not expose her

After Li Meng learned the identity of his wife, he couldn't help but sigh. Since then, he has cherished the Third Lady more and more. Soon after, the third lady gave birth to a big fat man, and the whole family lived happily together.
