During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a poor man named Li Fu, one day, Li Fu and Li Ming were working in the field, the weather was very cold, and they were shivering with cold. Li Fu remembered that there was still a pot at home, and some soup was boiling in it, so he said to Li Ming: "Son, you go back first, bring the soup in the pot to the house, and when I come back, we will drink it together." Li Ming nodded, and went home with the pot.
Li Ming came home, put the pot on the stove, and prepared to clean up the house. He was just about to leave when he heard a voice from the pot: "Young man, don't go, I'm a soup woman, I can bring you good luck." Li Ming was startled, he thought that someone was playing tricks on him, so he walked over and lifted the lid of the pot, and saw that there was only some clear soup in the pot, and there was nothing. He thought it was strange, so he closed the lid on the pot again and prepared to leave.
At this time, the voice in the pot sounded again: "Young man, don't believe me, I am really a soup woman, I was sent by the Lord of the Stove, and he asked me to help your family." Li Ming was even more surprised, he didn't know whether to believe it or not, so he asked: "You were sent by the Lord of the Stove?" Then what can you do?" The voice in the pot said: "I can become anything you want, as long as you put me where you want, the next morning, I will become that thing." Remember, though, that you can't tell anyone, or I'll be gone. ”
When Li Ming heard this, his heart was a little shaken, and he thought that if this was true, then they could get rid of poverty. He asked, "What can you become?" and the voice in the pot said, "I can become gold, silver, jewelry, clothing, food, whatever you want, I can change." Li Ming thought for a while, and said, "Then can you turn into gold?" The voice in the pot said: "Of course you can, as long as you put me where you want, the next morning, I will turn into gold." ”
Li Ming's heart was moved, he thought, if he had some gold, he could buy his father some good food, good clothes, and repair the house and live a good life. He said, "Well, then I'll try to see how much gold you can turn into?" and the voice in the pot said, "It depends on where you put me, and the bigger you put it, the more I become." ”
Li Ming thought about it, poured the soup in the pot into a large wooden barrel, then put the wooden barrel under the bed, and said, "Then I will put you here, and you will turn into gold tomorrow morning." The voice in the pot said, "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely turn into gold, but you must not tell anyone, and do not let anyone see me, or I will disappear." Li Ming nodded, closed the barrel, walked out of the house, and waited for his father to come back.
When Li Fu came home, he was very happy to see that his son had cleaned up the house, and he asked, "Son, where is the soup in the pot?" Li Ming said, "Father, the soup in the pot has been brought to the house, go and drink it." Li Fu walked into the house, and when he saw that there was only some clear soup in the pot, and there was nothing, he was very strange, and he asked, "Son, what kind of soup is this? Why is there no vegetables and no meat?"
Li Ming said: "Father, this is Tang Pozi, sent by the Lord of the Stove, she said that she can turn into anything we want, as long as we put her where we want, the next morning, she will become that thing." I've put her in a barrel under the bed, and she says she'll turn to gold tomorrow morning. When Li Fu heard this, he was taken aback, he thought that his son was talking in his sleep, so he said: "Son, don't talk nonsense, how can there be such a thing? Are you deceived?"
Li Ming said: "Father, I didn't lie to you, it's true, you will see it tomorrow morning." Li Fu didn't believe it, so he pulled his son, walked to the bedside, dragged the wooden bucket out, lifted the lid, and saw that there was only some clear soup in it, and there was nothing. Li Fu was even more angry, so he said, "Son, look, is this what you are talking about? This is just some water, how can you believe such nonsense?"
Li Ming said: "Father, don't worry, this is Tang Pozi's skill, she is water now, and it will turn into gold tomorrow morning, you believe me, let's wait until tomorrow morning to see." Li Fu shook his head and said, "Son, you are too naïve, how can there be such a good thing in this world, have you been drugged? ”
Li Ming said: "Father, don't fall down, you give me another chance, let me prove it to you, tomorrow morning, you will regret it." Li Fu looked at his son's eyes and felt that he was very sincere, so he thought, maybe he was really favored by the Lord of the Stove, maybe tomorrow morning, you will regret it. ”
Li Fu looked at his son's eyes and felt that he was very sincere, so he thought, maybe he was really favored by the Lord of the Stove, maybe tomorrow morning, they would really have a surprise. He said, "All right, then I'll give you another chance, but remember, if tomorrow morning this water is still water, you have to throw it out, and don't believe this nonsense anymore." Li Ming nodded, put the wooden barrel back under the bed, closed the lid, and then had a simple meal with his father, and went to sleep.
The next morning, Li Fu and Li Ming woke up early, and they both wanted to see what was going on in the barrel. Li Fu still didn't believe it, he thought that his son must have had a sweet dream, so he said: "Son, get up quickly, let's go see your soup woman and see what has become of her." Li Ming also got up, he was very confident, he felt that Tang Pozi would definitely turn into gold, so he said: "Father, don't worry, we will definitely have good luck." ”
Together, they went to the bedside, dragged the barrel out, lifted the lid, and when they saw it, they were all stunned, there was no water in the barrel, and in its place were buckets of gold, sparkling and dazzling. Li Fu and Li Ming couldn't believe their eyes, they both thought they were dreaming, so they touched the gold with their hands and found that it was all real, it was all real gold. They were all speechless with excitement, and they all thanked the Lord of the Stove for his gift and the miracle of Tang Pozi.
Li Fu and Li Ming put all the gold into a hemp bag, and then hid the sack in a secret place to hide it from anyone. They decided to use the gold to improve their lives, but they didn't waste it, they didn't show off, they still kept their kindness and humility. They first bought themselves some new clothes and shoes, and then repaired their house, replaced all the shabby things with new ones, and cleaned the house so that people could look at it comfortably.
They also bought themselves some good food and good drinks, and they ate and drank enough every day, so that they would no longer starve and freeze. They also planted some good crops in their fields and used some good fertilizers to make their harvests more abundant. They also bought themselves some books, learned some knowledge, and improved their literacy.
They also bought themselves some musical instruments, learned some music, and increased their hobbies. They also bought themselves some gifts and gave them to their relatives and friends, enhancing their friendship and affection. They also donated some money to themselves, helped some people in need, and gave back to society and the country. They also set aside some money for themselves as their own savings and investments to plan for their future.
Li Fu and Li Ming's lives are getting better and better, and they are getting happier and happier, and they thank the Lord of the Stove for his gifts every day, and thank Tang Pozi for his miracles. They burn incense every day to worship the king of the stove and tell them their wishes and gratitude. The Lord of the Stove was also very happy to see their good deeds and happiness, and he felt that he had not helped them in vain.
He said to them: "Li Fu, Li Ming, you are the kindest, most industrious, most filial, most grateful people I have ever met, you use my gifts to improve your life, but you do not forget your own duty, do not forget to help others, do not forget to thank me, you are really my good people, I am very proud of you, I am very happy for you."
You don't have to worry about anything, your future will be better, your happiness will be longer, your wealth will be more stable, your health will be stronger, your wisdom will be greater, your happiness will be more endless, and your peace will be more eternal.
As long as you continue to be yourself, continue to be a kind, hardworking, filial and grateful person, I will always bless you, always accompany you, always love you, and always bless you. You must remember that I will always be your lord of the stove, and you will always be my good people. ”
When Li Fu and Li Ming heard the words of the Lord of the Stove, they were so moved that they shed tears, and they both knelt on the ground and were grateful to the Lord of the Stove. In this way, Li Fu and Li Ming lived happily ever after. And the Lord of the Stove was also rewarded for his clear rewards and punishments, and everyone got their own place and reaped luck.
