The innocent son sued his parents, and the couple dreamed of entering the palace of Hades to be tried
In ancient times, there was a place called Liuxi Village, where there was an honest husband and wife, the husband was named Li Laohan, and the wife was Wang. The two had a son, named Li Buxiao. Li Buxiao has been smart and clever since he was a child, but he is extremely stubborn and disrespectful to his parents, and the people in the village shake their heads and sigh when they mention him.
Although Li Laohan and Wang's family are poor, they dot on their son in every way and are reluctant to beat and scold, causing Li Buxiao to become more and more arrogant. When he grew up, not only did he not help his parents work, but he often reached out to his parents to ask for money.
One day, Li Buxiao made trouble at home again, and he thought that the money given by his parents was too small for him to squander in the gambling house in the town. He snatched the money bag from Wang's hand and rudely fell to the ground, and the copper coins inside were scattered all over the ground. He pointed at his parents' nose and scolded: "You two old immortals, you know how to farm all day long, and you have no interest at all! Look at the rich man of the family, that is the life of a man! Can't you earn me more money?"
Li Laohan and Wang were so scolded by him that they couldn't raise their heads, so they could only silently pick up the copper coins on the ground, their eyes full of tears. They knew in their hearts that if this continued, this family would be destroyed in the hands of Li Buxiao sooner or later.
However, Li Buxiao showed no signs of relenting, but intensified. He began to steal things from his family to sell, and even came up with the idea of selling his house and land. Although Li Laohan and Wang's hearts are like knives, they have nothing to do.
One day, Li Buxiao stole the family's only ploughing cow and prepared to sell it to the cattle dealers in the town. When Li Laohan found out, he was trembling with anger, he chased out the door and shouted: "Unfilial, you can't do this! That's the lifeblood of our family!"
Li Buxiao didn't look back, and said coldly: "What does your life have to do with me? I want to live my life! Don't follow me, or I will sell you!"
Li Laohan was so angry that he fainted to the ground, and Wang cried and pounced, but to no avail. When the villagers heard the news, they rushed to carry Li Laohan home, but they were helpless. They knew that the home had been completely ruined.
At this time, Li Buxiao suddenly had a plan. He remembered a rumor circulating in the village that unfilial people would be punished by Hades. He had a plan in mind and decided to sue his parents and let Hades clean them up.
So, he ran to the county office, beat the drum and voiced grievances, and complained that his parents were unkind and unloving, which caused him to live in hardship and have no way to make a living. When the county magistrate heard this, he felt that this was a big disrespectful case, so he sent someone to bring Li Laohan and Wang to the county office.
In court, Li Buxiao kept complaining about his parents' misdeeds, as if he was an innocent victim. Li Laohan and Wang were in tears and speechless. They never dreamed that their son would do such a thing.
The county magistrate frowned when he heard Li Buxiao's complaint. He knew that this case was tricky, but he couldn't let it go easily. So, he decided to report the case to Hades and let Hades decide.
In this way, Li Buxiao's state was sent to the palace of the king of Hades. Hades opened it and looked at it, and couldn't help but be angry. He did not expect that such an unfilial son would dare to sue his parents! He decided to personally try this case and teach Li Buxiao a stern lesson.
So, on a stormy night, Li Laohan and Wang suddenly had a strange dream. They dreamed that they were brought to the palace of Hades by a group of imps, facing the majestic Hades and the solemn hall. They trembled with fear and didn't know what to do.
Hades looked at them and asked in a deep voice, "Are you guilty?"
Li Laohan and Wang hurriedly kowtowed: "The villain is guilty, the villain is guilty!"
"What are your crimes?" asked Hades.
"We ...... We have no way to teach our son, and we have raised this unfilial son......" Li Laohan said with a choked voice.
Hades nodded, and asked Li Buxiao again: "Are you guilty?"
Li Buxiao was escorted to the front of the hall by the little ghost, and looked at his parents kneeling there, feeling a little panicked. But he still said stiffly: "I'm not guilty! It's because they don't love me that I'm like this!"
Hades shouted angrily: "Presumptuous! You dare to sue your parents! Do you know that this is a great crime of disrespect?"
Li Buxiao was so frightened that he trembled, but he still refused to give in. He thought to himself, anyway, this was in a dream, and Hades couldn't do anything about him.
However, he was wrong. How could Hades be as simple as he could have imagined? As soon as Hades waved his hand, a mirror appeared in the hall. What is reflected in the mirror is Li Buxiao's various unfilial behaviors towards his parents from childhood to adulthood. He stole from the house, beat and scolded his parents, and even wanted to sell his house and land...... Every scene made him embarrassed.
Li Buxiao looked at himself in the mirror, and a strong sense of guilt surged in his heart. He suddenly realized that he had really done something wrong. He fell to his knees and wept bitterly to confess to his parents and Hades.
Hades looked at him, a glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes. He said: "Li Buxiao, do you know that the kindness of your parents is as important as Mount Tai? It is really disrespectful that you dare to be ungrateful and sue your parents. But if you still have repentance, this king will give you a chance to mend your ways. ”
After speaking, Hades waved his sleeves, and a golden light shot out of the mirror, enveloping Li Buxiao's body. Li Buxiao only felt warm all over his body, as if a magical power poured into his body. He looked up and found that he in the mirror had become meek and respectful, as if he had changed someone.
Hades said again: "Li Laohan, Wang, you have no way to teach your children, but you also have the grace of nurturing. From now on, teach your son well, and do not condone his wicked deeds any more. ”
Li Laohan and Wang kowtowed again and again to thank them, saying that they would change their past mistakes and teach their sons well.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and Li Laohan and Wang woke up from their dreams. They found themselves still lying in bed, but there was an indescribable ease and understanding in their hearts. They knew that it was Hades' lesson and guidance.
Since then, Li Buxiao has become filial and sensible, no longer beating and scolding his parents, and no longer stealing things from the house. He helped his parents with the work, took care of the family's fields, and often chatted with his parents to relieve boredom. The people of the village were amazed when they saw the change in him, and they praised him as a good son.
Li Laohan and the Wang family were also deeply grateful, they knew that this was a gift from the king of Hades. They cherish this family affection even more, and the family of three lives a harmonious and happy life.
And Li Buxiao, who was once stubborn, also embarked on the right path under the guidance of the king of Hades and became a respected person. He often thinks back to that stormy night and the dream that changed his life. He knew that it was the most important lesson of his life and the starting point for his new life.
This story is a good story in Liuxi Village, and people say that this is the grace of the king of Hades and the creation of Li Buxiao. Since then, the people in the village have been more filial to their parents, living in harmony and living a happy and peaceful life. Time flies by like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, there are several spring and autumn. Li Buxiao's change not only made his parents deeply gratified, but also won the respect and love of the villagers. He is no longer the unfilial son who gives people a headache, but has become a good young man who is hardworking, kind, filial and sensible.
One day, when Li Buxiao was working in the fields, he suddenly dug up a shiny thing. He carefully dug it out and saw that it turned out to be a gold medal. The gold medal is intricately engraved with a pattern and a gemstone in the middle, which is obviously a priceless treasure.
Li Buxiao was pleasantly surprised, but he did not forget his duty. He returned home with the gold medal and told his parents everything that had happened. Li Laohan and Wang looked at the gold medal in their son's hand and were also surprised. After some discussion, they decided to hand over the gold medal to the county government so that the government could find out its origin.
So, Li Buxiao came to the county government with the gold medal. When the county magistrate saw the gold medal, his eyes lit up. He carefully inspected the gold medal, and asked Li Buxiao how he found the gold medal, and then nodded and said: "This gold medal is a gift from the emperor, and it has been lost to the people for a long time. I didn't expect to be dug up by you today, it's really providence!"
The county magistrate sighed with emotion, and said: "Li Buxiao, you found that the gold medal was not greedy or occupied, but took the initiative to hand it over to the government, which is really a rare quality." The official decided to report to the imperial court and commend you. ”
Soon after, the commendation from the imperial court came down. Li Buxiao not only received a rich bounty, but was also named a "man of filial piety" and became a model in the township. His deeds have been widely praised and have become a good story in people's mouths.
And Li Laohan and Wang also won the respect and care of the villagers because of their son's filial piety and integrity. Although their lives are still simple, their hearts are full of happiness and contentment.
One night, Li Buxiao had a dream. He dreamed that he was back in front of Hades, but this time it was Hades himself who greeted him. Hades smiled and said, "Li Buxiao, you have now reformed and become a good son who is filial and sensible. This king is deeply grateful, and I give you blessings and peace in your life. ”
After speaking, Hades waved his sleeves, and a golden light sprinkled from the sky, enveloping Li Buxiao's body. After Li Buxiao woke up, he only felt refreshed, as if he had been reborn.
Since then, Li Buxiao's life has been smoother. He married a virtuous wife and gave birth to several smart and lovely children. His parents also lived a long and healthy life, and the family lived happily together.
And that former unfilial son has now become a model and example in the hearts of the villagers. His story not only makes people sigh at the complexity and changeability of human nature, but also allows people to see the beauty and power of reforming themselves and being filial to their parents.
In this legendary Liuxi Village, the story of Li Buxiao's family has been passed down from generation to generation. And the gold medal, which once caused a sensation, was also regarded as a mascot by the villagers and enshrined in the ancestral hall of the village. It witnesses the transformation and growth of an unfilial son, as well as the happiness and reunion of a family.
