The widow gave porridge to the old beggar, and the old beggar: Your longevity is over, hurry up and prepare for the future
In a remote mountain village, there lived a young widow named Ah Xiu. Ah Xiu was born with clear eyebrows, hard work and kindness, but she was widowed alone because of her husband's early death. Despite her ill-fated fate, Ah Xiu never lost confidence in life, and she worked hard every day to take care of the old and young in the family, winning the respect of the villagers.
At dusk that day, Ah Xiu boiled a pot of hot millet porridge and prepared to send it to the elderly and children at home. She walked out of the house with the porridge, and suddenly found an old beggar in ragged clothes huddled in the corner, shivering. Ah Xiu felt pity and hurriedly walked over and handed the porridge in his hand to the old beggar.
The old beggar raised his head, revealing a weather-beaten face with a glint of gratitude in his eyes. He took the porridge bowl, took a sip tremblingly, then sighed and said, "Good Samaritan, I am touched by your kindness. But I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
Ah Xiu smiled slightly and said, "Old man, just say what you have to say, I won't mind." ”
The old beggar nodded and said slowly: "Your longevity is over, hurry up and prepare for the future." ”
When Ah Xiu heard this, he was shocked, and his face suddenly turned pale. She couldn't believe her ears and stammered, "Old man, what are you, what are you talking about......?"
The old beggar sighed and said, "When I was young, I learned some physiognomy from a master, and although I was not proficient, I could also see some clues. Your Yin Tang is black, and your face is dead, and I am afraid that a great disaster will come soon. ”
After hearing this, Ah Xiu was terrified, but she didn't want to believe the sudden bad news. Suppressing the fear in her heart, she asked, "Old man, can you tell me what is going on, and how can I resolve it?"
The old beggar shook his head and said, "I can't say for sure. Maybe your fate has been decided, or maybe you have inadvertently offended some god. In short, you have to be careful and do more good deeds, and maybe you can have a chance of life. ”
Ah Xiu listened to the old beggar's words, and his heart was mixed. She was scared and helpless, but more than that, unwilling. She doesn't want to die like this inexplicably, she wants to live, take care of her family, and live happily ever after.
However, fate doesn't seem to favor Ah Xiu. Since that day, her body has been weakening day by day, and her once ruddy face has become pale and haggard. She tried to ask Lang Zhong for diagnosis and treatment, and also tried to pray to God and worship Buddha, but to no avail.
When the villagers saw Ah Xiu like this, they all shook their heads and sighed, saying that her life was hard. And Ah Xiu himself gradually lost his confidence in living. She began to lie in bed all day, no longer working, no longer communicating.
Just when Ah Xiu was about to give up hope, the old beggar appeared at her door again. He brought some herbs and charms, saying that they would ward off evil spirits and save his life. Although Ah Xiu was skeptical, seeing the old beggar's sincere eyes, she still decided to give it a try.
The old beggar boiled medicine for Ah Xiu and put a charm on her bedside. He told Ah Xiu that he had asked for these herbs and charms from the master to bless her through the difficult time.
After Ah Xiu took the herbs, he really felt much more comfortable. The fear in her heart slowly dissipated, replaced by a glimmer of hope. She began to pick herself up again and try to fight her fate.
However, just when Ah Xiu thought she was about to get rid of her bad luck, a sudden disaster befell her.
That night, wind and rain, lightning and thunder. Ah Xiu was lying on the bed when he suddenly heard a loud noise, as if something had collapsed. She was shocked and hurriedly got up to check. I saw that half of the kitchen at home had collapsed, and the floor was full of rubble.
Ah Xiu was terrified, she didn't know how this disaster happened, and she didn't know what would happen next. She stood in the wind and rain, crying helplessly.
Just then, the old beggar reappeared. Braving the wind and rain, he came to Ah Xiu's side and helped her into the house. He comforted Ah Xiu and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." This catastrophe is terrible, but your life is not yet over. As long as you persevere, you will definitely get through this difficult time. ”
Ah Xiu listened to the old beggar's words, and a warm current surged in his heart. She looked at the old beggar gratefully, and her eyes gleamed with determination. She decided not to bow to fate again, she wanted to live bravely until the last moment.
In this way, Ah Xiu, with the help of the old beggar, survived this disaster. Although her life is still difficult, her heart is full of hope and courage. She knew that as long as she didn't give up, fate wouldn't be able to crush her.
And that old beggar has also become a light in Ah Xiu's life. Although he couldn't change Ah Xiu's fate, he used his kindness and wisdom to give Ah Xiu strength and confidence. Let Ah Xiu understand that in this world, there are always some things that are worth adhering to and guarding.
This is the end of the story. As for Ah Xiu's fate later, and where the old beggar is sacred, all this is still unknown. But what we can be sure of is that in this world full of unknowns and uncertainties, as long as we have faith and courage, we can overcome all difficulties and usher in the second half of our own dawn story:
As the days passed, Ah Xiu, with the encouragement and help of the old beggar, gradually walked out of the shadow of the disaster. She began to take care of the family's fields again, taking care of the elderly and children, and although life was hard, her face was radiant again.
The old beggar also often appeared at Ah Xiu's house, he would not only bring some necessities of life, but also teach Ah Xiu some health preservation methods, so that she could better regulate her body. Ah Xiu was full of gratitude and respect for the old beggar, and she felt that it was really a blessing from heaven to be able to meet such a nobleman.
However, the good times were short-lived. Just when Ah Xiu thought that his life was on the right track, an even bigger disaster quietly came.
On this day, Ah Xiu was working in the fields when he suddenly heard a commotion from the village. Her heart tightened, and she hurriedly ran home. I saw that the house was surrounded by a group of officers and soldiers, and the old beggar was also taken aside by them.
Ah Xiu was terrified, she didn't know what was going on. She stepped forward to ask the officers and soldiers, but what she got was heartbreaking news - it turned out that the old beggar turned out to be a thief wanted for many years!
Ah Xiu couldn't believe her ears, she looked at the old man who had saved her life and brought hope to herself, and her heart was full of pain and disappointment. She didn't understand, why such a kind old man could be a big thief?
The officers and soldiers didn't give Ah Xiu much time to think, and they escorted the old beggar to leave. Ah Xiu was in a hurry, and rushed forward to block the way of the officers and soldiers. She exclaimed, "Wait a minute! I have something to say!"
The officers and soldiers were taken aback by Ah Xiu's actions, and they stopped and looked at the brave woman. Ah Xiu took a deep breath and said, "I know you may not believe it, but this old man once saved my life. He's not a bad guy, please give him a chance!"
The officers and soldiers looked at each other, they obviously didn't expect Ah Xiu to stand up and intercede for the old beggar. At this time, the old beggar also spoke: "Officers and soldiers, I know that I am guilty of great sins, but for the sake of Miss Axiu, please give me a chance to mend my ways." ”
The officers and soldiers couldn't help but waver in their hearts when they looked at Ah Xiu's firm eyes and the old beggar's sincere attitude. Eventually, they decided to give the old beggar a chance and temporarily detain him in a county jail pending further trial.
Although Ah Xiu saved the old beggar's life, her heart was full of contradictions and pain. She didn't know how to deal with this old man who had saved herself, but was a thief. She felt as if her world had collapsed, and she could no longer regain the peace and tranquility that had been.
However, life is always full of surprises and twists. Just when Ah Xiu was in despair, a shocking news came - it turned out that the old beggar was not a real thief, but was framed!
After some investigation and trial, the truth was finally revealed. It turned out that the old beggar had been framed and imprisoned for a misunderstanding when he was young, and although he escaped later, he has been burdened with this crime. The reason why he appears in Ah Xiu's village is because he is looking for evidence that can prove his innocence.
Ah Xiu, who learned the truth, was excited, and she immediately went to the county prison and told the old beggar the news. When the old beggar heard the news, a trace of tears flashed in his eyes, and he held Ah Xiu's hand tightly and said, "Thank you, Miss Ah Xiu." You were the one who gave me hope again. ”
With Ah Xiu's help, the old beggar finally cleared his grievances and regained his freedom. He was grateful for Ah Xiu's life-saving grace and trust, and decided to stay in the village and spend the rest of his life protecting this kind woman.
Since then, Ah Xiu and the old beggar have become a pair of legends in the village. Their story has been told and has become an eternal legend. And Ah Xiu also understood a truth: in this world, there is no absolute good and evil, only the choice and perseverance of the human heart. As long as we have faith and courage, we can overcome all difficulties and usher in our own happiness and beauty. The second half of the story:
Ah Xiu spent many peaceful and warm days with the old beggar. The old beggar is no longer the wandering, unidentified old man, but a member of Ah Xiu's family, affectionately known as "Ah Fu" by the villagers. Ah Fu used his wisdom and experience to help the villagers solve various problems, and won everyone's respect and love.
Ah Xiu also gradually walked out of the shadow of the past with Ah Fu by the company of Ah Fu. Instead of fearing her fate, she has learned to cherish the life in front of her and strive for her own happiness. She and Ah Fu take care of the family's fields together, take care of the children and the elderly, and although their lives are simple, they are full of warmth and hope.
However, fate always seems to be full of variables. Just when Ah Xiu and Ah Fu thought that they could live in peace like this forever, a sudden plague swept through the entire village.
The plague was raging, and many people fell ill. Ah Xiu was not spared, she was lying on the bed, with a high fever and a cough. Ah Fu saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He ran around looking for herbs and methods to cure the plague, but to no avail.
Ah Xiu's body was getting weaker and weaker, and she knew she might not be able to make it out. She lay on the bed, looking at Ah Fu's busy back, her heart was full of gratitude and reluctance. She told Ah Fu: "Brother Ah Fu, thank you for always being by my side. If there is an afterlife, I am still willing to be with you. ”
After Ah Fu heard this, tears welled up in his eyes. He held Ah Xiu's hand tightly and said, "Ah Xiu, sister, don't say stupid things. I'll definitely find a cure for you. Believe me, we're going to get through this. ”
Just when Ah Xiu was about to give up hope, a miracle happened. During a trip to look for herbs, Ah Fu unexpectedly discovered a miracle doctor who had lived in seclusion for many years. The miracle healer was a skilled physician and soon found a cure for the plague.
With the help of the miracle doctor, Ah Xiu's condition gradually improved. She finally defeated death and got back on her feet. Ah Fu saw Ah Xiu's recovery, and his heart was full of joy and relief. He knew that it was a miracle created by their combined efforts and faith.
After experiencing this life-and-death catastrophe, Ah Xiu and Ah Fu's relationship has become deeper. They understand that there will always be difficulties and challenges in life, but as long as they rely on each other and move forward hand in hand, nothing can stop them from pursuing happiness.
With the joint efforts of the villagers, the village has gradually regained its former vitality and vitality. Everyone worked together to resist the plague and finally defeated the disaster. And the story of Ah Xiu and Ah Fu has also become a legend in the village and has been praised from generation to generation.
Time flies, time flies. Ah Xiu and Ah Fu spent many times of joy and tears together. Although their lives are ordinary and simple, they are full of sincere emotions and deep friendships. They use their stories to tell us that nothing in this world can stop us from pursuing happiness. As long as we have faith and courage, we can overcome all difficulties and usher in a bright future of our own.
