Our Gada, there is a man named Li Blacksmith, the craftsmanship is a must, the person is also sincere, among the blacksmiths in ten miles and eight villages, he is the most famous. This blacksmith Li is five big and three thick, with a full beard, and it makes people feel at ease at first glance. But he has a brother-in-law who has a headache, Zhang Er Mazi, that guy is idle all day long, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, but he just refuses to do something serious.
Once, when Blacksmith Li came back from striking iron, it was already dark. He hurried along the path to his home, and saw a dark shadow hovering from the side of the road. When I got closer, it was a young woman, with a pale face and disheveled clothes, and it seemed that she was in trouble. "Girl, what's wrong with you?" Blacksmith Li squatted down and asked with concern. The woman looked up, tears gleamed in her eyes, and she choked up and said, "Big brother, I'm ...... I've been robbed of my baggage and I'm lost, can you take me home? "Blacksmith Li heard it, this is not good, at night, how dangerous it is for a girl to be outside. He hurriedly helped the woman up and said, "Girl, come with me, come to my house for the night first, and I will send you back tomorrow." ”
In this way, Blacksmith Li led the woman home. He told the woman to rest in the house and cook for herself. After a while, the smell of food wafted from the house. The woman heard the movement and walked out. Looking at Blacksmith Li's busy figure, his heart was warm. She stepped forward and whispered, "Big brother, you are such a good person. I...... What can I do for you? Blacksmith Li was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Girl, you have just been frightened, let's rest first." You can't do my rough work. But the woman insisted on helping, and she looked at the anvil and hammer in the corner of the house, and said, "Big brother, I can't strike iron, but I can help you organize your materials and clean the yard." Seeing that she was so persistent, Blacksmith Li did not refuse again.
The woman stayed at Blacksmith Li's house, helping to do some chores every day, and the two got along very well. One night, Blacksmith Li and the woman sat in the courtyard to cool off. The woman suddenly said, "Big brother, you are really a good person. I...... I have a reluctant request, I don't know whether to talk about it or not. When Blacksmith Li saw that she wanted to speak, he said, "Girl, if there is anything, you can tell me directly, as long as I can help, I will do my best." Only then did the woman speak her mind. It turned out that her name was Cuihua, and she was an ordinary peasant girl from a neighboring village. She has an older brother, Zhang Er Mazi. Zhang Er Mazi gambled and owed a lot of debts, and the creditors came to the door every day to force debts. In order to help her brother repay her debts, Cuihua had to run away from home, but she didn't expect to meet robbers on the road. Blacksmith Li listened to Cuihua's words and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He didn't expect Zhang Er Mazi to have such a sensible sister. Oops, this is a whole thing, that blacksmith Li buddy, what a warm-hearted person. He pondered for a while, and then said to Miss Cuihua: "Cuihua, don't worry, I will definitely come up with a trick to help your brother pay off his debts." When Cuihua heard this, her tears were in her eyes, and she was very grateful, and she said repeatedly: "Big brother, you are really my great benefactor, I ...... I really don't know how to repay you. Blacksmith Li waved his hand and said, "Girl, you're welcome, I just can't see others suffering." I'll definitely have to take care of your brother's business. ”
Just like that, Blacksmith Li began to run around, raising money everywhere, intending to help Zhang Er Mazi pay off his debts. Cuihua also settled down at Blacksmith Li's house, helping with housework every day, and the relationship between the two became closer and closer. But just when Blacksmith Li was about to get the money together, Zhang Er Mazi suddenly came back. When he heard that Blacksmith Li was helping him raise money, he sneered in his heart and thought, "This Blacksmith Li is really stupid, why should he help me pay back the debt I owe?" ”
Zhang Er Mazi found Blacksmith Li and said sneeringly: "Yo, isn't this our big blacksmith brother?" What, to help me pay off my debts? You're such a nice guy! When Blacksmith Li heard him say this, he also felt a little angry in his heart, but he still pressed the fire and said, "Er Mazi, I have already helped you raise almost the debt you owe." As long as you can change your ways and be a good person in the future, I will help you pay off your debts. When Zhang Er Mazi heard this, he was even more furious and shouted: "Change the evil and return to the right? Why should I change it? I tell you, I will pay the debt I owe! I don't need you to help me! After speaking, Zhang Er Mazi turned his head and left, leaving Blacksmith Li and Cuihua stunned.
Cuihua looked at her brother's back, her eyes full of disappointment and helplessness. She knows that her brother wants him to change his ways, it's difficult! Blacksmith Li was also uncomfortable in his heart, looking at Cuihua's eyes full of sorrow, he secretly made up his mind in his heart. "Cuihua, don't worry, your brother's business, I'll take care of it to the end." Blacksmith Li patted his chest, and there was a firmness in his voice. When Cuihua heard this, her tears almost fell again, and she had mixed feelings in her heart.
In the following days, Blacksmith Li was even busier. I struck iron during the day, and took on some work to repair farm tools at night, so I wanted to earn more money and help Zhang Ermazi pay off his debts as soon as possible. Cuihua saw it in her eyes, hurt in her heart, and wanted to help, but Blacksmith Li always told her to rest more, saying that these rough jobs were not suitable for her. A month has passed in a blink of an eye, and Blacksmith Li finally got the money together, and prepared a little more, wanting to give Zhang Er Mazi a chance to start over. But when he took the money to find Zhang Er Mazi, he found that Zhang Er Mazi was gone again. Oops, this young man, what a headache! Blacksmith Li was so angry that he stomped his feet, but when he thought of Cuihua waiting for Xin'er at home, how could he admit defeat like this. So, he decided to go out in person to find the Ermazi, and he had to let him pay off the debt. Blacksmith Li embarked on a journey to find people, and he was exposed to the wind and sun along the way, and suffered all the hardships. He inquired everywhere, and even went to the casinos and restaurants in the city, but Zhang Ermazi seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no shadow.
Just when Blacksmith Li was disheartened and was about to give up, God opened his eyes, and he heard the wind of Zhang Ermazi in a tavern. It turned out that this guy was chased by the creditor to hide in Tibet because he owed too many debts, and finally hid in the deep mountains and old forests. When Blacksmith Li heard this, he didn't say anything, and rushed to the mountains with his luggage on his back. The road in the mountains is difficult to walk, and he was almost lost several times, but Blacksmith Li relied on the tenacity of striking iron to find Zhang Ermazi's hiding place.
Seeing Zhang Ermazi's dejected appearance, the anger in Blacksmith Li's heart suddenly turned into sympathy. He stepped forward, with reproach and distress in his tone: "Er Mazi, what have you become now?" Blacksmith Li said as he took out a heavy bag of silver and put it in front of Zhang Ermazi: "This is your debt, I will make it up for you." But you have to remember that this money is not given for free, you have to use it to turn over. Your sister is still looking forward to you at home! Blacksmith Li patted Zhang Er Mazi on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Er Mazi, who is not wrong?" The key is that you have to have the ambition to correct your mistakes. Go home, treat your sister well, and don't let her worry about it anymore. ”
Zhang Er Mazi nodded, bowed deeply to Blacksmith Li, turned around and set foot on the way home. Blacksmith Li looked at his back, and his heart was mixed. He knows that this road is not easy for Zhang Er Mazi, but he believes that as long as Zhang Er Mazi sincerely repents, he will be able to usher in a new life one day.
A few days later, Zhang Er Mazi went home. When Cuihua saw him come back safely, she was so excited that tears rained down, and hugged her brother tightly, as if she was afraid that he would run away again. Zhang Er Mazi felt the love and warmth of his sister, and the energy in his heart came up. He vowed that he would change his mind and never let his sister worry about him again. Since then, Zhang Er Mazi has really changed and become impressive. That kid Zhang Ermazi is now reborn, and he no longer gets involved in gambling and, nor does he wander around, but he has found an errand and worked hard to earn money to support his family. Cuihua looked at her brother's changes, and her heart blossomed. She understands that behind this is inseparable from Blacksmith Li's guidance and hard work.
Blacksmith Li is still the same old look, working every day to repair farm tools, and he is very busy, but you look at his face, there is always a satisfied smile, why? Because he knows that his hands and heart not only brought back a heart that was about to sink, but also guarded the harmony and beauty of a family.
Time flies, and a few years have passed in the blink of an eye. Zhang Er Mazi, a kid, with his own strength and diligence, not only paid off all the debts he owed, but also saved a lot of money. He and Cuihua built a new house together, and life was prosperous. Blacksmith Li's reputation also spread among the villagers, who said that he was a great good man and a tough guy with affection and righteousness.
One day, Blacksmith Li was busy striking iron when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside the door. He looked up and saw that Zhang Ermazi ran in panting, still holding a large package in his hand, and the smile on his face was not to mention how bright it was. "Brother Blacksmith, what do you think this is?" Zhang Er Mazi said as he opened the package, which contained a pile of glittering jade and gold ornaments, which were worth a lot of money at a glance.
Blacksmith Li was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Er Mazi, what do you mean by this?" Where did so many treasures come from? Zhang Ermazi smiled and said, "Brother Blacksmith, this is all what I have saved over the years." I know you're good to me, and you're good to my sister, but I've never had a chance to repay you. You can sell these treasures for some silver. ”
When Blacksmith Li heard this, he was anxious: "Er Mazi, what are you doing here?" I'm not trying to help you. You things, get them back quickly, we don't need this between us. ”
Zhang Er Mazi saw that Blacksmith Li resolutely refused to accept it, and was a little anxious: "Brother Blacksmith, are you looking down on me?" I know I wasn't a good thing before, but I've really changed now. These are the things I really want to give you. You just take it, and I will thank you for it. ”
Blacksmith Li looked at Zhang Ermazi's sincere eyes, his heart was hot, and he was so moved. Hey, take a look at this, Ermazi, you kid, I got my heart, but we really can't ask for this pile of things. What is the relationship between the two of us, isn't that just iron buddies, it is appropriate to help each other. If you really appreciate me, just live a good life, and don't let your sister fuck that heart again. When Er Mazi heard this, he almost couldn't hold back his tears, and bowed to Blacksmith Li again, saying, "Brother Blacksmith, I have taken your words to heart." I'm sure I've got to have a good time, and I've got to take care of my sister, don't worry. As soon as the words fell, Er Mazi turned around and left.
Blacksmith Li looked at the back of Er Mazi, and his heart was mixed. He knew that this time Er Mazi had really changed, and he had really started a new life. In the blacksmith shop, people come and go every day, and it is very lively. Those villagers who came to blacksmith Li to make iron and repair farm tools were not only for his good craftsmanship, but also to feel the enthusiasm and deep friendship of our Northeast people.
Blacksmith Li is kind-hearted and enthusiastic, and uses his own hands and sincerity to help everyone in need. As the years went by, Blacksmith Li grew old, but he was still busy working in the blacksmith shop every day. The wrinkles on his face are given by the years, but those eyes are still so bright and firm.
Zhang Er Mazi did not forget the teachings and kindness of Blacksmith Li. With hard work and wisdom, he worked hard to make his own way, not only paid off his debts, but also made a name for himself in the village and became a well-known businessman. The small shop he runs with Cuihua is booming, and his family is also harmonious. From time to time, they would go back to the blacksmith shop to see Blacksmith Li and bring some delicious food and drink to express their gratitude.
In this way, in the vast land of our northeast, the story of Blacksmith Li and Zhang Er Mazi has been passed on, and it has become the warm light in everyone's hearts.
