Folklore: A bowl of chicken soup to identify adultery
During the Ming Dynasty, there were two brothers surnamed Tie on the outskirts of Shaanzhou, the older brother Tie Yi and the younger brother Tieshan. The brothers are freight forwarders and go around dumping goods all year round. The two brothers are willing to endure hardships and be honest, so the business is done well, and the small life of the two families is also quite rich.
The brothers have a good relationship and have not separated the family, the younger brother lives in the front yard, the older brother lives in the backyard. Tie Yi's daughter-in-law Luan was born in a family of scholars, and Tieshan's daughter-in-law Zheng was the daughter of LangZhong. The relationship between the two concubines is also good, when the Tie brothers go out to go to business, the two concubines get together to chat and do needlework.
In the spring of this year, the two concubines went to the temple to offer incense, and on the way back, a small milk dog followed the two people. Sister-in-law Zheng Shi felt that the puppy was likable, so she ran home and raised it. The puppy is snow-white, and Zheng gave it a name called "Cotton". Cotton is clever and mischievous, and often runs to the backyard on weekdays, and her sister-in-law Luan also likes it.
Cotton would lie down at Zheng's door every night to sleep. Don't look at cotton is a small milk dog, the alertness is very high, there is movement outside the courtyard at night, it will "Wang Wang" a few times, the brothers think it is good to have a puppy, at least when the two are not at home, cotton can also take care of the home.
On this day, the brothers went out to collect medicine again, and the place where they went was far away, at least two months to come back. In the middle of the night, Cotton suddenly ran to the west wall of the backyard and shouted outside the wall. Zheng thought that there was a thief and worried about his sister-in-law's safety, so he put on his clothes and ran to the backyard, at this time, his sister-in-law Luan also got up. Zheng asked his sister-in-law what had happened, and Luan said that he didn't know, maybe there were wild things passing by outside the courtyard. The two of them stayed in the courtyard for a while, and Cotton stopped barking, and the two of them went back to their houses and slept.
The next night, Luan brought a bowl of chicken soup, saying that it was for cotton to drink, and rewarded it for its credit for taking care of the nursing home. Cotton loved the chicken soup and drank it all in a short while. That night, Cotton lay in front of the house and slept soundly. Since then, every five or six days, Luan will get a bowl of chicken soup for cotton.
More than a month passed, and this night, Luan brought chicken soup again. It happened that Cotton was playing in the village and had not yet returned. Zheng Said to his sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, you will put the bowl here, and when the cotton comes back in a while, I will give it a drink." After Luan returned to the backyard, Zheng put chicken soup on the bench by the door.
After a while, cotton came in through the water outlet under the wall, and Zheng Shi scolded with a smile: "You little guy, now you are wild, you are always home, I don't want you another day." Cotton thought Zheng was teasing it, wagged his tail and ran over, only to accidentally knock the bench down and spill chicken soup on the ground. Zheng Scolded: "You naughty ghost, such a good chicken soup makes you waste." After saying that, he took a cake and threw it to Cotton, and Cotton ate the cake and still lay down at the door.
At two o'clock in the evening, Cotton suddenly cried out twice, and then ran to the backyard, and Zheng Shi quickly got up and followed. As soon as Zheng entered the backyard, he saw a figure on the west wall climbing over the wall. Zheng Shi was horrified and quickly called his sister-in-law up and told her that there were thieves in the house. Who knew that the sister-in-law's reaction was not so big, did not show a look of surprise, which surprised Zheng Shi.
A few days later, Luan Shi brought chicken soup again. Sleeping until late at night, Zheng's stomach was uncomfortable, and he got up and went to the hut. After opening the door, I saw Cotton lying in the doorway, sleeping deadly, and Zheng Shi returned from the hut, and Cotton was not awake yet. Zheng kicked it with his foot, but still did not move. Zheng's father is Lang Zhong, who has heard and heard about it since childhood, so Zheng also knows some pharmacology, and she found that cotton looks like drinking a drug.
Seeing the cotton like this, and thinking about what happened on the night the cotton spilled chicken soup, Zheng Shi was suspicious in his heart. She sneaked into the backyard and hid in a secluded place to observe. About half an hour later, the door of the sister-in-law's door slowly opened, and a shadow came out, looking at the shadow's figure like a man. The shadow walked to the western wall and climbed over the wall. At this point, Zheng Shi understood that his sister-in-law had actually had an affair with someone. The chicken soup given to cotton must have been drugged in it, that is, to confuse the cotton and stop their ugly deeds from being exposed.
Zheng did not show it after he knew about it, and a few days later his sister-in-law brought chicken soup to cotton, and Zheng quietly left half a bowl. The next day, Zheng returned to his mother's house with the half bowl of chicken soup. Zheng's father, an experienced Langzhong, sniffed the chicken soup, looked carefully at the dregs of the soup, and finally concluded that there was a large dose of ecstasy in the soup. Zheng told his father not to tell him about it. After returning home, Zheng Shi did not show it, and her sister-in-law brought chicken soup and she also let the cotton drink all, and in her heart, she hoped that her husband and brother would come back quickly.
A month later, Tie Yi and the Tie Shan brothers returned. That night, Zheng told his husband what he knew, and Tie Shan was shocked to hear it, although it was difficult for him to believe that his sister-in-law was having an affair, but he knew that his wife would not lie out of nothing. After thinking about it for a long time, Iron Mountain had an idea in his heart.
The brothers stayed at home for half a month, set off again, and on the third day after leaving, Luan served chicken soup to Cotton again. At the end of the night, Zheng Gently opened the door, and tie yi and the tieshan brothers flashed in. The three of them came to the backyard lightly and hid in a secluded place, and after a moment, a figure on the west wall jumped in, and when they reached the door of the house, they tapped twice, and Luan opened the door and let the person in.
Tie Yi's face was flushed with anger, and his fists were clenched with "clucking". A quarter of an hour later, Tie Yi burst into flames, rushed over and kicked open the door of the house and rushed in, and Tie Shan followed closely into the house. Luan and the adulterer were not dressed neatly, and on the spot, Tie Yi went up and beat the man violently, and then the brothers tied up the two and handed them over to the government.
After the adulterer and adulteress Fufa, Tie Yi married Cai Shi as his wife, and the brothers still lived together, the brothers were close, the concubines were harmonious, and later they all had children, and the family was happy and harmonious. That cute white dog Cotton has been staying in the Tie family, and Zheng shi will boil chicken soup for him to drink every few days, but at this time, there is no drug in the chicken soup.

Luan's adultery with people, even if there is no cotton and Zheng's discovery, will be exposed in other aspects. This is called, if people do not know, unless they do nothing.
Married women are advised to clean themselves up and not to go astray on a whim.
