Hey, guys, let's talk about something weird today. In our Jiangnan water town, there is a carpenter, surnamed Li, whose craftsmanship is called a unique, and he is called Master Li. This Master Li, his craftsmanship is so good that he has nothing to say, his heart is still very soft, and he always likes to help others.
One day, Master Li took over a job to make longevity materials for the rich and slashing Zhang in the town. This old Zhang family has so much money that he can stone people to death, but this person is so stingy that he looks like something. The selection of longevity materials, that is the most inferior cedar, has to limit a time, said when it must be done before, otherwise not a dime. Master Li was like a mirror in his heart, knowing that Lao Zhang wanted to take advantage, but he didn't say much, so he took the job.
When I got home, Master Li began to work, this longevity material, you have to pay attention to craftsmanship and mind. Although I feel a little aggrieved, the work at hand is not sloppy at all. In a blink of an eye, on the last day, Master Li made the longevity material a beautiful one, and specially added a delicate little drawer, saying that it was to put some gadgets.
Early the next morning, Master Li went to Lao Zhang's house with Shoucai. Lao Zhang saw that Shoucai was so good-looking, and his heart blossomed, but he was still picky and picky, saying this and that. Master Li didn't argue, and as soon as he put the longevity material away, he was ready to leave. But at this moment, he saw a little girl in the corner, named Xiaohong, secretly wiping her tears.
Master Li relented, so he walked over and asked what was going on. When I asked, I found out that Xiaohong was the maid of Lao Zhang's family, and she was beaten by Lao Zhang because she accidentally broke a bowl. Master Li looked at Xiaohong's red and swollen eyes and the injuries on her body, and it was not a taste in his heart. He thought about it for a while, and then said to Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, do you remember the little drawer in the longevity wood I made for your master yesterday?" Red nodded. Master Li said again: "I put something in that drawer, you find an opportunity to take it out secretly, and then give it to your master, and say that you picked it up." ”
Although Xiaohong didn't understand what Master Li meant, she still did it. Taking advantage of the lack of attention, she took out the small drawer from the longevity material, and inside was a golden hairpin. This golden hairpin was bought by Master Li out of his own pocket, although it is not a big treasure, but it is also a rare thing in this town. Xiaohong handed over the golden hairpin to Lao Zhang, saying that she picked it up herself. Lao Zhang's eyes lit up when he looked at Jin Hai, thinking that this must have been accidentally dropped by a big family, and he had picked up a big bargain. He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and hurriedly rewarded Xiaohong with a silver ingot, and asked her to pay more attention in the future.
This matter has spread like this, and Master Li's craftsmanship and heart have made our people in the Jiangnan Water Town give us a thumbs up. Xiaohong held the piece of silver in her hand, her heart was warm, and she was as grateful as if she had drunk honey. She knew that the golden hairpin was specially given to her by Carpenter Li, and she also understood Carpenter Li's careful thoughts. She secretly swore in her heart that she would repay Carpenter Li for his kindness in the future.
Time is like flowing water, and as the days pass, Carpenter Li is still busy in the town as usual. One day, he was repairing the door of a house when he suddenly heard a noise outside. He put down the work he was doing, and when he went out, he saw that there was a good guy, a group of people were surrounded by water, and in the middle stood a woman dressed in fancy clothes. This woman looks so beautiful, just like a fairy in the sky descending to earth. She had the golden hairpin in her hand, and she was asking someone about it. Carpenter Li glanced at the golden hairpin and was shocked, this was not given to Xiaohong by himself. Curious, he leaned over and asked. I don't know if I don't know, I was shocked when I asked, it turned out that this woman's name was Cuihua, and she was a lady from the capital. A few days ago, I came to Jiangnan to play, and I accidentally lost the golden hairpin. Later, I heard that there was a kind carpenter in this town who helped her find the golden hairpin, and asked the maid to send it back. In order to repay this kindness, she specially rushed over from the capital.
When Carpenter Li heard this, he felt the beauty in his heart, but he didn't expect that his little act of kindness would attract such a great good thing. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What's this, it's trivial, it's not worth mentioning." But Cuihua insisted on reciprocating, saying that she was willing to make cattle and horses for Carpenter Li. Carpenter Li looked at Cuihua's sincere eyes, and his heart moved a little. He thought about it for a while, and then said to Cuihua, "If you really want to repay me, then do me a favor." Cuihua eagerly asked what was the matter, and Carpenter Li said, "I want to open a carpentry workshop in the town and teach those who have no skills to learn carpentry." If you have time, come and teach them with me. When Cuihua heard this, she agreed without saying a word. She said that she has liked carpentry since she was a child, and although she is not as good as Carpenter Li, she can also teach some basics.
So, Carpenter Li and Cuihua set up a carpentry workshop together to teach the children in the town how to do carpentry. As soon as this carpentry workshop opened, it was called a lively, and the children in the town rushed to learn, and even those old men who were usually idle also came to join in the fun. Carpenter Li and Cuihua, one taught seriously, the other learned diligently, and it didn't take long for these children to get started and do some decent carpentry work. Cuihua doesn't look like a lady, but it's not ambiguous at all when it comes to carpentry. She is ingenious and meticulous, always patient and meticulous when teaching children, and from time to time tells everyone some interesting things in the capital, so that the children can listen to them with relish. Carpenter Li looked at Cuihua's seriousness, and his heart was also happy. The days flew by, like heavy snow in the northeast, quietly piling up the mountains. The reputation of the carpentry workshop, like the snow, is getting thicker and thicker, and it is spreading farther and farther. One day, a big merchant came to the town, and he said that he wanted to order a batch of wooden handicrafts, and planned to sell them in other places for a good price. As soon as the merchant saw the treasure in the carpentry workshop, his eyes straightened, and he placed a large order on the spot. This can make Carpenter Li and Cuihua happy, the two of them worked overtime overnight, and they were so busy that they were afraid of delaying the delivery deadline.
After several days and nights of hard work, this batch of crafts was finally completed as scheduled. When the merchant saw the finished product, he nodded again and again, and was full of praise, saying that it was the most beautiful wood craft he had ever seen, and that he would cooperate with Carpenter Li for a long time. This is really a good thing, Carpenter Li and Cuihua laughed from ear to ear, thinking that the business of the carpentry workshop is going to get bigger and bigger.
But at this time, Cuihua suddenly received a letter from home, saying that her father was seriously ill and needed her to go back to take care of her. As soon as Cuihua heard the news, she became anxious. Although she was reluctant to bear the carpentry workshop and these children, her father was seriously ill, how could she, as a daughter, not go back? So, she discussed with Carpenter Li and decided to go home to take care of her father first, and then come back when his condition stabilized. When Carpenter Li heard that Cuihua was leaving, he was reluctant in his heart. But he also knew that Cuihua was a filial daughter, and he couldn't let her delay taking care of her father for the sake of the carpenter's workshop. So, he comforted Cuihua and said, "Don't worry, I will watch the carpentry workshop." When you come back, we will make the woodworking workshop bigger and stronger together. Cuihua listened to Carpenter Li's words, and her heart was warm. She packed her bags, said goodbye to the children of the town and her neighbors, and set out on her way home.
A few months later, Cuihua's father was in stable condition, and she returned to the woodworking workshop as promised. At this time, the carpentry workshop was already famous, and the orders came one after another, so busy that Carpenter Li and Cuihua were almost unable to close their mouths. After Cuihua returned, she continued to run the carpentry workshop with Carpenter Li. Not only did they teach the children how to do carpentry, but they also began to design more elaborate and intricate crafts that they were ready to sell further afield.
One night, a mysterious guest suddenly arrives in the woodworking workshop. This guest, dressed in black, with a veil over his face, could not see his face clearly. He took out a piece of fine wood and said that he would ask Carpenter Li to make a coffin for him. As soon as Carpenter Li heard this, he was a little puzzled in his heart. This coffin is usually used for the dead, but this mysterious guest looks young and strong, why does he have to beat the coffin? But he didn't ask too much, and began to break the coffin according to the guest's request.
Carpenter Li listened to Zhang Dayuanwai's words, and his heart was also turbulent. He didn't expect that a good deed he did at the beginning could lead to such a tortuous story. He comforted Zhang Yuanwai and said: "Zhang Yuanwai, people can't be resurrected after death, so don't take it too seriously." I've already laid this coffin for you, so you can rest assured. Hearing this, Mr. Zhang glanced at Carpenter Li gratefully, and left the carpentry workshop with the coffin in his arms.
Since then, Zhang Dayuan has been like a different person, no longer as stingy as before, and has become more generous and generous. And what about Carpenter Li and Cuihua? They continue to run the carpentry workshop as always, passing on the craft to more people. Their carpentry workshop has also become a beautiful scenery in the town, attracting many people to visit and study.
Carpenter Li and Cuihua's carpentry workshop business is getting hotter and hotter, but they have never forgotten their original intentions, and still insist on teaching children to learn crafts and let them have a craft. After a long time, the children in the town mentioned Carpenter Li and Cuihua, and they all admired and appreciated.
One day, an uninvited guest came to the carpentry workshop. This man, dressed in tatters, with mud on his face, looks destitute at first glance. He stood at the door, staring at Carpenter Li with a blank eye, and only after a long time did he speak: "Master Li, I... Can I learn a little bit from you? As soon as Carpenter Li saw this person's appearance, he understood a little in his heart. He looked at this person a few times, and saw that although he was dressed in shabby, there was a spirit of refusal to admit defeat in his eyes, so he nodded: "Okay, you can come in." ”
When this man heard that Carpenter Li agreed, he was so happy that he almost jumped up. He hurriedly entered the house, found a corner and sat down, and began to listen carefully to Carpenter Li and Cuihua explain the carpentry craft. This man, named Ergouzi, was originally a gangster in the town. When he was a child, his family was poor, he didn't study, and he didn't have a serious job when he grew up, so he lived by stealing chickens and dogs. But recently, he encountered something and was beaten and almost died. This time, he completely woke up and decided to change his mind and be a new person.
After learning the craft in the carpentry workshop for a few days, Ergouzi thought this thing was quite interesting, so he decided to follow Carpenter Li and Cuihua to work hard. Our young man was busy in the carpentry workshop during the day, and at night, he learned the craft from Carpenter Li. You see, in a few days, he was able to do the basic carpentry work well, and he could make some knick-knacks on his own.
One night, the second dog was working overtime, and suddenly heard a knock on the door outside. He hurriedly put down the guy in his hand and ran out to see, yo, a young girl was standing at the door, as anxious as if something. This girl looks very handsome, but her face is a little pale, and she looks like she is sick. When I asked, I found out that her name was Xiaofang, and she was a newcomer to our town. The family was so poor that they couldn't even open the pot, and now they were sick again, and they had no money to hire a doctor, so they had to come to the carpentry workshop for help.
When the second dog heard it, he was entangled in his heart. Our carpentry workshop is a good business, but it's not a charity. Besides, how can the little money he has in hand be enough to hire a doctor for Xiaofang? Just as they were worried, Carpenter Li and Cuihua came out of the house. When they heard about Xiaofang, the two of them didn't say anything, they directly took out the money and asked Xiaofang to invite a doctor. The second dog saw it in his eyes, and he was moved in his heart, and his admiration for Carpenter Li and Cuihua was a little more.
A few days later, Xiaofang recovered from her illness, and in order to repay Carpenter Li and Cuihua for their kindness, she decided to stay in the carpentry workshop to help. Although his body is still weak, he is not ambiguous at all, and it didn't take long for him to become a good hand in our carpentry workshop.
Time flies, and it's the end of the year in a blink of an eye. That night, the carpentry workshop was brightly lit and lively. It turned out that the townsfolk specially held a thank-you banquet in order to thank Carpenter Li and Cuihua for their help over the years. At the banquet, the villagers toasted Carpenter Li and Cuihua one by one to express their gratitude. Ergouzi and Xiaofang also took the wine glasses, came over and said gratefully, "Master Li, Sister Cuihua, thank you!" If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be where we are today! When Carpenter Li and Cuihua heard this, their hearts were warm, and they waved their hands and said, "This is all the result of your own efforts, and it has nothing to do with us." ”
At this moment, Zhang Dayuanwai walked out of the crowd. He walked up to Carpenter Li, bowed deeply, and said, "Master Li, I've done a lot of wrong things before, I'm sorry!" I'm here to apologize to you today. Carpenter Li saw that it was Zhang Dayuanwai, smiled, and said, "Zhang Yuanwai, let the past pass, let's all look forward!" When Mr. Zhang heard this, tears were about to come out, and he said excitedly: "Master Li, you are right!" I will definitely change my life and become a new person in the future! In this way, the thank-you banquet ended successfully in laughter. Carpenter Li and Cuihua, they are veterans in our woodworking workshop in the northeast, and they use their own hands and that little cleverness to live a more and more prosperous life day by day. Let's talk about Ergouzi and Xiaofang, these two young people are working in the carpentry workshop, which is really called a diligent, not only can they learn the craft, but they also accept friendship and love. They used their own sweat and persistence to tell us a truth: as long as we have a dream in our hearts, no matter how hard it is, we have to chase it, as long as we are willing to work hard, won't success come!
Today, let's tell the big guys, which is the story of the carpenter beating the longevity. I hope that after listening, everyone can understand a truth: the road of life, where can there be no bumps, but as long as we have the strength and courage to break through and fight, then we will definitely be able to usher in our own spring blossoms!
