We Chinese have always paid attention to the knowledge of gratitude, others have helped us a little bit, we will also find a way to return it, that is, the often said courtesy exchange. And the county decree we are talking about today, because the servant mistakenly sent three hundred and two silver to the wrong person, he will be wrong, and after a few years he will get a greater reward from this family.
This person's name is Wu Tang, born in a civilian family in Anhui during the Jiaqing period, from ancient times to the present, the children of ordinary people want to get ahead, the most direct and simple way is to take the imperial examination, but every talent that can be a talent is a matter of Guangzong Yaozu. Wu Tang is also a free, intelligent and studious person, under the cultivation of his parents, he studies hard and can only rely on moonlight and snow light to study at night.
Fortunately, kung fu did not pay off, Wu Tang was raised in high school at the age of 17, and in the following ten years, Wu Tang did not have much to do, and lived his small life in peace and stability, until the age of 36, Wu Tang was appointed as the Taoyuan County Commander of Huai'an Province, and it was from here that Wu Tang's life took a huge turn.
At that time, Wu Tang's good friend Liu Mou, a Hunan Daoist, passed away, and the son took his father's coffin to prepare to return to his hometown to bury him, and after the funeral ship reached Wu Tang's territory, Liu's son asked his subordinates to go to Wu Tang Mansion with a letter to report the letter. Although Wu Tang was a small county order, he was very sincere with his friends, and he first ordered his people to take three hundred and two pieces of silver to run for his funeral, but there were two funeral boats parked on the dock at that time, and the people sent by Wu Tang made a mistake and gave three hundred and two to another family, and this family and Wu Tangsu did not know each other.
After Wu Tang realized that the next person may have given the wrong person, he was very angry and immediately sent someone to check it out, and the result can be imagined that the next person really gave the wrong person, but this money is a sacrifice after all, and it is naturally not good to go back. In desperation, Wu Tang had to carry out the mistake to the end, and he sent someone to prepare another three hundred and two pieces of silver. This time, Wu Tang personally brought The Silver Two to the dock, first to worship the old friend, and then to another funeral ship for the wrong Silver Two.
And this family is the Yehenara clan, and the deceased is the father of the family, Hui Zheng, who has gone all the way from a gradeless pen sticker style to a Korean Zhongzheng Sipin official. During these years as an official, Hui Zheng relied on the power in his hands to make a lot of benefits, but later when the Taiping Army attacked Anhui, Hui Zheng escaped from the battlefield, resulting in his dismissal. After his dismissal, Hui Zheng became a figure that everyone avoided, and his life was in trouble, and he eventually became depressed and died soon after.
After Hui zheng died of illness, his family also took him to return to his hometown for burial, and when he went to the border of Jiangsu, he mistakenly received this money from Wu Tang, which was a blessing in disguise for Hui Zheng's family, who were already poor. Therefore, when Wu Tang personally boarded the ship to worship his father, they were full of gratitude to Wu Tang, and the eldest sister of the family advised everyone that if they had the ability in the future, they must report their benefactors well. Wu Tang listened to it as a polite word at that time, but he did not expect to really get a greater reward.
Because the eldest sister of the family who made the promise later entered the palace through the draft, she later became one of the favorite concubines of the Xianfeng Emperor. After the death of the Xianfeng Emperor, Yehenara's life seemed to be hanging on, ruling the entire Qing Dynasty, and she was the Empress Dowager Cixi that we all know. After the Yehenara clan came to power, he did not misterly at all with his benefactors, and Wu Tang rose several ranks in a few years from a small county order, serving as the governor of Liangguang, the governor of Sichuan, and the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, becoming a hot figure in the DPRK. However, only the promotion of the empress dowager obviously did not work, the key is that Wu Tang has been an official for decades, honest and honest, conscientious and conscientious, and has done a lot of practical things for the area under his jurisdiction, winning the love of the people.
I have to say that the words of the old ancestors still have to be listened to, and you still have to be kind to be a person, and the reward you deserve will be able to lead you sooner or later.
