The fire was raging on all sides, and he was unscathed in the fire, just for someone to sell his wife to pay off his debts and send the bank for preservation

Shi Qiang, a man from Cao County, Shandong, has a straightforward personality and is informal. He used to be a servant in the county government, because he was good at drinking and gambling, and he lost a gambling so much that he forgot about his official business, and was dismissed by the county official in anger. Back home, although he lived a poor life, he was also happy. On this day, Shi Qiang went to a neighboring village to gamble again, and his luck was surprisingly good, and he won a lot of money. His heart was full of joy, and while counting the silver, he hummed a little song, and set out on the way home.

In the evening, as the sky grew dark, Shi Qiang walked through a field and passed a small village. Suddenly, a terrible cry broke the silence of the night. He frowned, curiosity driving him to stop and leave. On the side of the road, a couple hugged each other tightly, and two children cried helplessly. Shi Qiang stepped forward and asked softly, "Brother, what's wrong?" The man raised his head, his eyes were hazy with tears, and his voice was choked: "Big brother, I owe Wang Yuanwai money, and I have to pay it back tomorrow, I... I can't help it. Shi Qiang's heart tightened, he knew the taste of debt, which was a kind of pain that could drive people to a dead end.

The man continued: "I... I was going to sell my wife, but she was only in her twenties, and the children were still young, so I..." Shi Qiang looked at the family and had mixed feelings in his heart. He thought of his former bohemianism, of his own troubles. He took a deep breath and decided what he wanted to do, even if it was just a little help. He patted the man on the shoulder and whispered, "Don't cry, let's go home first." The man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and the family took Shi Qiang and slowly walked in the direction of home. In the night wind, Shi Qiang's heart began to stir, he didn't know what would happen next, but he knew that he couldn't stand by and watch.

The fire in the village was finally extinguished, but what was left was ruins and endless grief. Shi Qiang stood in front of the burned ruins of his home, looking at everything around him, with mixed feelings in his heart. His wife snuggled up to him, the children held his hand tightly, and the family was at least still together despite the loss of their home.

"Brother Qiang, what should we do in the future?" There was a tremor in his wife's voice.

Shi Qiang took a deep breath and looked firm: "We have hands and feet, and we can still work." If the home is gone, let's build it again. As long as we are together as a family, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. ”

The people of the village began to rebuild their homes, and Shi Qiang joined them. With his own hands, he helped others clear the rubble and rebuild their houses. His story spread in the village, and people said that Shi Qiang was a good man and that his good deeds were rewarded.

"Brother Shi, you gave us hope that night, and now we want to help you too." Zhang Quan came to Shi Qiang with several people from the village, with tools in their hands, ready to help rebuild.

Shi Qiang smiled and patted Zhang Quan's shoulder: "We are all a family, and it is appropriate to help each other." ”

As the days passed, Shi Qiang's home was slowly rebuilt with the help of everyone. Although life is still difficult, Shi Qiang's heart is full of hope. He knew that as long as there was love and hope in their hearts, nothing could stop them from moving forward.

"Brother Qiang, look, our vegetable garden has grown new sprouts again." The wife said, pointing to the vegetables not far away.

Shi Qiang looked over and saw that the vegetable field that he had helped was now full of life. He knows that this is not only the rebirth of the vegetable garden, but also the hope of their life.

"yes, as long as we don't give up, everything will be fine." Shi Qiang clenched his wife's hand, his eyes flashing with firmness and hope for the future.
