In 2003, Zhao Gucai of Tianshui, Gansu Province, was in the business of collecting pig hair all year round, and he rode a bicycle to collect pig hair on weekdays.
After a long time, the nearby villagers all knew him, and they would take the initiative to sell pig hair to Zhao Gucai.
On this day, the villagers heard Zhao Gucai's shouts and took out their pig hair.
Zhao Gucai began to be busy weighing and calculating money, and a girl walked up to Zhao Gucai and whispered to ask if she could go to the house to weigh it?
There is a steady stream of pig hair sellers around him, and Zhao Gucai still has the heart to care about this little girl.
He said with some impatience: "No, everyone is taking it and selling it, it's too troublesome for me to go to your house." ”
The little girl stood motionless, and when Zhao Gucai packed up her things and prepared to go to the next village, the little girl grabbed Zhao Gucai.
The little girl said aggrievedly: "There is only me and my mother in my family, my mother can't get out of bed when she is sick, and I can't lift it alone"
Zhao Gucai felt a little guilty after hearing this, so he asked the little girl to lead the way to her house.
Secretly leave a thousand dollars
When I arrived at her house, I found that the little girl had not only sorted out the pig hair, but also washed it all.
Zhao Gucai casually took out a hundred yuan to the little girl.
But I didn't expect that the little girl had long known the price of pig hair and knew that her pig hair could be sold for 60 yuan.
Zhao Gucai said: "It's okay, your pig hair is clean and neat, saving me a lot of trouble, you should be expensive." ”
The mother of the little girl in the house overheard the conversation between the two and said that there was change in the house and asked the child to bring it to him.
The little girl pulled Zhao Gu to prevent him from leaving, and he had no choice but to follow the little girl into the house to get the money.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the little girl's mother lying on the bed, rummaging sideways for change.
Looking for money gaps, and chatting a little, I learned that the girl's name was Ma Wenxia, and her father died a month ago.
My mother was sick some time ago, and the doctor said that it would cost a lot of money to treat the disease.
But the mother and daughter had no savings, and the mother had to recuperate at home.
So the young Ma Wenxia shouldered the burden of the family, which made Zhao Gucai very sympathetic.
After taking the money, Zhao Gucai will go to the next village to collect pig hair.
But when he went out, he noticed the picture on the wall, and then realized that it was the girl's father.
Zhao Gucai looked at the photo and was stunned for a while, and when he reacted, he took advantage of Ma Wenxia's mother and daughter not paying attention, leaving a thousand yuan at the end of the bed.
Just about to leave, Zhao Gucai was stopped by an uncle again, saying that he wanted to sell pig hair, so he had to return again.
When Ma Wenxia's mother was making the bed, she found a thousand yuan at the head of the bed.
She guessed that this was left by collecting pig hair, but she didn't understand why the pig hair collector did this.
There was no time to think about it, let her daughter hurry up and return the money to Zhao Gucai, and when Ma Wenxia ran out of the yard to look for him, he was nowhere to be seen.
The mother looked at her husband's photo and wondered if she recognized her husband by collecting pig hair, and pity them for the 1,000 yuan they gave.
After watching for a while, let Ma Wenxia go to the house and take out a sack left by her husband before his death.
Explained that her daughter must give the sack to Zhao Gucai, Ma Wenxia was also puzzled, but did not ask more and went out to find Zhao Gucai.
Ma Wenxia heard Zhao Gucai's shouting and found him according to the voice.
Ma Wenxia threw the sack directly onto Zhao Gucai's tricycle, and then ran home.
Found that the bag contained more pairs of golden hammers
Zhao Gucai went home after turning around the nearby village, and his wife helped him unload the car when he returned home.
When unloading the truck, he found the golden hammer in the sack.
The wife thought that Zhao Gu took it back, and did not say much.
But Zhao Gucai knew in his own heart, obviously all the pig hair that was taken back was suddenly a pair of golden hammers.
At night, when his wife was settling the account, she found that Zhao Gucai was missing a thousand yuan, thinking that she had spent it on buying a gold hammer.
Thinking that the golden hammer could be sold for a lot of money, he let Zhao Gucai hurry up and sell it.
Zhao Gucai said: "What to sell, I don't know how this golden hammer came about." After speaking, I realized that I had said the wrong thing.
His wife immediately questioned him: "You didn't buy this hammer with a thousand dollars, where did the thousand dollars go?" ”
Zhao Gucai squatted at the door without saying a word, which made his wife feel that Zhao Gucai was hiding something from her.
In a fit of anger, his wife went straight back to the house to pack her luggage.
Seeing his wife's competitive appearance, Zhao Gucai had to honestly explain that he would give a thousand yuan to a mother and daughter who were suffering from a nearby Zhuang.
After his wife listened, she directly slapped Zhao Gucai and went back to her mother's house in a huff.
Zhao Gucai looked at the golden hammer in front of him and complained in his heart.
The neighbors also heard the noise, and it was only when Zhao asked him what had happened.
Zhao Gucai told the neighbors all about the incident, and after speaking, Zhao Gucai seemed to remember something, took the hammer and walked out.
Before the gate could close, he rode away on a tricycle.
It turned out that Zhao Gucai thought that he stayed the longest in Ma Wenxia's house yesterday, so he thought that the hammer belonged to her family.
Zhao Gucai took the hammer straight to the room where Ma Wenxia's mother was bedridden, and anxiously asked if the golden hammer was theirs.
Ma Wenxia's mother nodded and asked rhetorically: "Then did you keep a thousand yuan!" Why give me money for no reason? ”
Zhao Gucai said slowly: "Actually, I know your husband!" ”
When Zhao Gucai went to sell pig hair in a textile factory abroad, he once took Ma Wenxia's father's car.
At that time, Zhao Gucai's money was not enough to pay the fare, and Ma Wenxia's father did not accept his money for the share of his fellow villagers.
This incident has always been remembered in Zhao Gucai's heart, and when he saw the photo that day, he was sure that he was the driver who had helped him.
That's why I left a thousand yuan for Ma Wenxia's mother and daughter.
Ma Wenxia's mother burst into tears after hearing this, and she missed her deceased husband more and more.
She said: This golden hammer is what a person who accepted the help of her husband back then.
Because you gave us a thousand dollars, I thought of repaying you with a golden hammer.
Zhao Gucai said that he would not accept it no matter what, let the mother and daughter take good care of themselves, and left after speaking.
Ma Wenxia's mother asked Ma Wenxia to give him the golden hammer after Zhao Gucai left.
After Zhao Gucai came out, he rode to his husband's house to pick up his wife and go home.
After Ma Wenxia arrived at the village, she inquired about Zhao Gucai's home, and sat at the door waiting when she saw that the gate was locked.
Zhao Gucai took his wife home after eating at his husband's house at night, and when he arrived home, he found Ma Wenxia sitting at the door.
Zhao Gucai was startled and asked her to hurry home.
The wife saw that there was a girl sitting at the door, and she was angry again, so Zhao Gucai quickly grabbed his wife.
Let Ma Wenxia tell his wife what happened, and her wife only dissipated after listening to it.
The wife also felt that the family did her husband a big favor back then, and asked Ma Wenxia to go back early with the golden hammer.
Little Ma Wenxia said: "Mother told me to give you the golden hammer!" ”
In desperation, Zhao Gucai had to accept the golden hammer.
The wife proposed to sell the golden hammer, and the money from the sale was taken to Ma Wenxia's mother to see a doctor.
Zhao Gucai praised his wife for being virtuous, regretting that he didn't tell her the truth earlier, and made her angry.
Zhao Gucai obeyed his wife's words and took the gold hammer to the gold and silver store to appraise.
Unexpectedly, the price of this golden hammer far exceeded a thousand yuan.
After selling the golden hammer, Zhao Gucai took his wife to Ma Wenxia's house together.
They told Ma Wenxia to take her mother to the hospital.
At first, Ma Wenxia's mother was still very reluctant, and when Ma Wenxia heard that her mother could get out of bed again, she kept persuading her mother.
Ma Wenxia's mother had to agree, and promised to return the money to Zhao Gucai and his wife when she recovered from her illness.
Fortunately, Ma Wenxia's mother's illness is not particularly serious, and she only needs a minor operation to recover.
And the money from selling the golden hammer is enough to pay for the operation.
After the operation, Zhao Gucai often brought his wife to visit her, and Ma Wenxia was also very sensible and took good care of her mother.
Under Ma Wenxia's care, her mother recovered quickly and was discharged from the hospital not long after.
After being discharged from the hospital, in order to repay Zhao Gucai and his wife, Ma Wenxia's mother and daughter often went to Zhao Gucai's house to help.
Over time, the relationship between the two became closer and closer.
With the help of Ma Wenxia's mother and daughter, Zhao Gucai's business of collecting pig hair is getting better and better.
The sensible Ma Wenxia was also admitted to a key university, and her mother had a stable job in Zhao Gucai's pig hair collection factory.
Ma Wenxia's mother and daughter are very grateful for the help of Zhao Gucai and his wife, and Zhao Gucai and his wife always remember the kindness of the year.
epilogue
Ma Wenxia's father's kind actions gave a glimmer of light to Zhao Gucai, who was starting a business. Perhaps he himself did not expect that his kindness would be reciprocated by his wife and daughter. The so-called good people have good rewards, and this story is well reflected.
