Zhu Youshun during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty was an oil seller, and he walked the streets and alleys very hard all day.
Zhu Youshun was very poor, and at the age of twenty-five he had not yet said his daughter-in-law.
One day the village chief came to him and said that he wanted to give him a medium.
The girl's name is Yue'e, she is from the Zhuangzi next door, honest and diligent, but only a little, and the birthmark on her face is grown.
The people in the village thought it was unlucky, so they could not marry it.
Last month, her father had just passed away. Yue'e's brother-in-law let out a message, and there are no idle people in the family.
If you can't find Ruyi Langjun within a month, you will throw her out of the house.
The villagers wanted to help her, so they asked people to tell her about her affair. The village chief immediately remembered Zhu Youshun from their village.
Zhu Youshun's daughter-in-law did not ask for her appearance, as long as she lived a life, so he agreed to this family affair.
The two became relatives under the Zhang Luo of the group.
After the marriage, the two people were very affectionate, Zhu Youshun continued to sell oil, and Yue'e worked at home.
She was very capable, and reclaimed half an acre of paddy fields on the back hill, although there was not much land, but in the end her life was not as poor as before.
The villagers said that Zhu Youshun had married a good daughter-in-law.
When the family had saved enough silver, Zhu Youshun took her to the city to see a doctor.
There was a doctor in the city who specialized in healing the birthmarks on her face, and Yue'e took a few pairs of medicines, and the birthmarks on her face disappeared.
Yue'e birthmark is gone, everyone found that she looks very beautiful, and many people think that Zhu Youshun has picked up the treasure.
But Zhu Youshun felt that he was not worthy of Yue'e, and he could not bring a rich life to his wife, so he left a letter and wanted to leave.
As soon as Zhu Youshun walked to the mouth of the village, Yue'e caught up with him.
She said to Zhu Youshun: "This birthmark has allowed me to find my favorite husband, whether poor or rich, I am willing to be inseparable from him." ”
Zhu Youshun also did not want to leave his wife, and with her words, the two of them went home happily.
On this day, Zhu Youshun went to the Nanxiang Temple in Cangcui Mountain to deliver oil, and not long after he went up the mountain, he met a group of monkeys.
Zhu Youshun said, "I still have serious business today, so you should quickly avoid it!" ”
But instead of dodging, the monkeys all came to Zhu Youshun's side.
More than thirty monkeys turned Zhu Youshun over, the monkeys took his purse, and a few monkeys carried away his flat shoulders.
The purse was sent by his wife, and he still had to earn money by flattening, so he went to chase, but how could a man run past a monkey? Soon the monkeys were gone.
Zhu Youshun asked the people here what was going on.
A man who has lived here for many years said, "Originally, the monkeys here are still quite docile." ”
"But about 10 years ago, a monkey king came, and it has been different since then."
All those who go up the green mountain have to buy two pounds of bananas, and when they see the monkeys, leave the bananas to them, so that you can go up the mountain safely.
Otherwise they will take all the previous things from you, and if they want to get things back, they can only exchange bananas for them.
Zhu Youshun was very angry: "Where is such a reason?" ”
Everyone didn't like this group of monkeys, but no one could do anything about it, and they had always been used to it.
Zhu Youshun's temper is very stubborn, as long as he feels that he is on his side, he is not afraid of anything.
He asked Hanzi about the Monkey King's cave, took the stick and went up the mountain.
When they arrived at the monkey's cave, Zhu Youshun asked the monkeys to return his things to themselves, but when the monkeys saw that he had not brought bananas, no one paid any attention to him.
Zhu Youshun didn't say much anymore, he just took the stick and went to beat the monkeys.
He was athletic, and the monkeys soon fell behind.
In the end, Zhu Youshun found his own things in the cave, and he took them directly.
When he went down the mountain, he met the man again, and the man shook his head after listening to his story.
"The Monkey King is not at home today, and you will be in big trouble when he returns."
Zhu Youshun didn't believe that, obviously they were at fault, why did they get into trouble?
He went home and told his wife about it.
Yue'e said, "I've heard that the monkey king in Cangcui Mountain has some skills, so you better be careful these days!" ”
After about three days, Zhu Youshun sold out the oil and went home.
It was late at night, but to his surprise, the windows were open in his house.
Obviously it was early spring and March, the weather was still relatively cold, and he did not know why his wife opened the window.
He went to the window to see that his wife had actually lit a white light, which made him feel that something was wrong.
He once told his wife a story: Once upon a time a man came home and found his wife lighting a white lamp, and he entered the house without taking it seriously.
Who thought that the rabbit spirit had been making trouble in his house, and his wife wanted to tell him that there was danger in the house with a white light, but unfortunately he did not understand what it meant.
As a result, both husband and wife died.
And the wife is opening the window and lighting the lamp, presumably she is also in danger.
Zhu Youshun was in a hurry outside, and he had to find a way to save his wife!
Suddenly, an old method came to mind, something was put in the house, and the aloe vera was sprinkled on the threshold, and whatever it was could appear in its original form.
Zhu Youshun grabbed a handful of furnace ashes and went directly up into the house, only to hear someone in the house shout.
He hurried into the house and took his wife behind him.
I saw a monkey lying on the ground, looking at the couple.
Both husband and wife looked at everything in front of them in amazement.
The monkey stood up, and he asked, "Are you Zhu Youshun?" ”
Zhu Youshun replied, "It is underneath." ”
"I wonder why you broke into my house in the middle of the night?"
The monkey sneered, "You make me very faceless." ”
It is the Monkey King, and the monkeys of the nearby mountains listen to him. All those who go up the mountain must leave food behind, otherwise they will not want to go up the mountain.
It had been smooth before, and the people who went up the mountain obediently bought them two pounds of bananas.
But two days ago he was out of business, and when he came back, his subordinates told him that someone had broken the rules.
This Zhu Youshun not only did not comply, but also hit its doorstep, which made it feel very faceless.
What made him even more angry was that since the incident of Zhu Youshun, many people were not afraid of them, and they did not bring anything with them when they went up the mountain, which made them how to survive.
The Monkey King said, "As long as you apologize to me tomorrow at noon in front of everyone and buy a cart of bananas, this matter will be over." ”
Zhu Youshun ignored it, and this monkey king was also too self-righteous, and he was the one who deserved it first.
He said: "I won't apologize, and I don't have a banana. ”
The Monkey King was angry, and he said angrily, "I see that you are toasting and not eating and eating the penalty wine." ”
With a flick of the Monkey King's hand, Zhu Youshun fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood from his mouth.
When his wife Yue'e saw that her husband was injured, she ignored nothing, picked up the candlestick in her hand and smashed it at the Monkey King.
The Monkey King blocked, and instead of hitting him, Yue'e was thrown far away by the Monkey King's strength.
"I wanted to spare the lives of the two of you, but if you sincerely apologize for this matter, even if it is over, who knows that you have repeatedly provoked me, then I can only be rude."
Just at this moment, Zhu Youshun took Yue'e's hand, and they crashed into the Monkey King together.
Both husband and wife were wearing concentric knots on their hands, and they shone with golden light, knocking the Monkey King away at once.
The Monkey King was seriously injured, and he didn't understand what was going on, they were obviously ordinary people, how could they suddenly have mana.
Zhu Youshun originally did not want to spare it, but Yue'e said, "It is also a life, you send it to the Nanxiang Temple, and ask the abbot there to see what to do!" ”
Zhu Youshun tied up the Monkey King and sent him to nanxiang temple.
The abbot of Nanxiang Temple said, "This monkey was first raised by a god in the heavens, and then he sneaked to the netherworld and came here." ”
"I have already reported the matter to the Heavenly Court, and in the next few days the immortal will come and pick it up, and when it returns, it will be punished."
The immortal also knew that his monkey had run into trouble, so he asked the host to give Zhu Youshun three thousand taels of silver as compensation.
Zhu Youshun was secretly glad that he had listened to his wife's words and did not kill it. Otherwise you won't get that much money.
When he returned home and saw his wife cooking, Zhu Youshun was relieved, but fortunately his wife was fine.
That day, Yue'e was mending clothes at home, when suddenly a teenager came into the house and wanted to beg for a drink.
Yue'e let him in without thinking, and just as he was pouring water, she saw the teenager show his tail, and she understood that the teenager was not human at all.
Yue'e asked, "Who the hell are you?" ”
Seeing that Yue'e found out, he didn't hide it, and he said to Yue'e, "I am the monkey king that your husband has offended, and when he comes back, I will definitely give him some color to see." ”
The Monkey King cast a spell, and Yue'e was unable to speak for a while, forcing her to go to the kitchen to cook.
Yue'e was afraid that her husband was in danger, and she suddenly remembered the story they had told.
So she opened the window and lit the white light.
There was a tacit understanding between the husband and wife, and Zhu Youshun guessed Yue'e's intentions.
The husband and wife are of the same heart, and they emit a huge amount of energy from them, which can defeat the Monkey King.
Through this incident, Zhu Youshun and Yue'e's relationship became better and better, and they also opened a shop with silver, and their lives were prosperous.
Summary: In the face of difficulties, husband and wife are united in their interests and break the money, the essence of marriage is to share responsibility, only in this way, the days will get better and better.
The Monkey King, who is strong enough to use it to bully others, ends up becoming more and more out of proportion, almost causing a catastrophe, and it is also punished.
When a person lives for a lifetime, he must know how to receive what is good and must not be greedy too much.
