The Story of Brother and Brother and the Old Gods

A long, long time ago, there was a village where a pair of brothers lived, the older brother Shan Gang narrow-minded, small-minded; the younger brother Shan Yong loyal and honest, kind-hearted. Good just become a family, good Yong or bachelor. When their parents died one after another, the brothers began to split the family, the brother divided into the east half of the house, the younger brother divided into the west half of the house. The older brother got the fields near the house, and the younger brother got the ones at the foot of the distant mountains. The older brother got the big jar, the younger brother got the small jar, divided, divided, divided to the end, only a dog and a cow left.

The older brother, Shan Gang, said to his younger brother, "The cow can plow the field, we can't kill the cow, half of one person, right?" Shan Yong nodded his head and said yes, then asked how to divide it. The older brother said, "In that case, let's have an ox pulling contest between us brothers, whoever wins the ox goes to whoever wins, and the losing family takes the dog away." The younger brother said let's follow his brother. The sister-in-law took the cow rope and said to Shan Yong, "Your brother will hold this end of the rope, and you will pull the cow's tail.

The younger brother asked, "Why is it that my brother is holding the cow rope, and I am pulling the tail? Brother said, "Brother you do not know wow, cattle rope thin thin, pull up strangling hand pain, and cattle tail and big and easy to pull the hold, I am a brother well, more or less to let a little brother ah."

The good Yong did not say anything. So this ridiculous race began, the younger brother tugged the tail, the older brother sneered, holding the cow rope to pull out, because the rope is connected to the cow's nose, the cow's nose is painful and naturally go forward, so the older brother easily won the younger brother. The good Yong had to tearfully take the dog back.

Soon the busy season came, the older brother had oxen to plow the field, and the younger brother had to hold the dog at the door crying. At that moment, a silver-haired old fairy came not far away and said to Shan Yong, "Little brother, why are you crying?"

Shan Yong said, "The farm work is coming, and there are no oxen to plow the fields."

The old god smiled and said, "Why don't you try plowing the fields with a dog as if it were an ox?"

After hearing this, Shan Yong tried to take the dog to plow the field, and strangely enough, the dog seemed to have a natural power, and plowed the field much faster than his brother's ox. The dog was able to plow the field much faster than his brother's oxen, and he soon returned home, while his brother plowed the field much, much later.

This is a strange thing! A dog can plow a field! The sister-in-law told Shan Gang about Shan Yong's use of dogs to plow the field, and Shan Gang was suddenly remorseful. The first time I saw this, I was able to see the dog's face, and I was able to see the dog's face, and I was able to see the dog's face, and I was able to see the dog's face! We brothers how to say also have to share the blessings, have difficulties together, just now your brother I poor plowing time flashed back, cough! Thinking about tomorrow there are still a few fields to plow..." said while touching the good Yong ground dog and continued to say "worry me to death!"

Shan Yong knows what Shan Gang means, because of the goodness of heart, the heart can not help but produce the brother care, said: "brother, do not worry, my dog plowing today is a god, or, tomorrow, I put the dog for you to plow the field it."

The dog was then taken back to the farm. The next day, good just take the dog down to the field, the dog in the field can not pull the iron plow, good just angry, in the dog body threw a whip, the pain of the dog wailing, the dog in the field is still can not pull the iron plow, the good just like this whip whip in the dog, the poor dog results of the living was killed.

The good just angry to the home. The younger brother asked his brother for the dog, and the older brother said, "The dog can't plow the field at all, it was killed by me! It's still lying in my field."

When Shan Yong heard that the dog was dead, he couldn't stop his tears from flowing, and he rushed to Shan Gang's field, hugging the dead dog and crying. He could not let go of the dog that had followed him for many years, and he carried it to his own field where it was buried at that end of the field.

At this point the old silver-haired goddess came to him unknowingly and said, "Young man, what's wrong?" Sunyoung told the old fairy what had happened.

The old fairy stroked his beard and smiled and said, "Don't cry, bury your dog here, and tomorrow there will be an immortal tree full of fruits, which can cure all diseases, and a normal person can live longer if he eats it. You pick it and give it to your neighbor for a cow to plow the field."

Sure enough, the next day, a tree grew in the field, the number on the full of fruit, the good Yong picked two fruits to the village to go, just met the neighbor Ma Danniang came in a hurry, the good Yong quickly asked Ma Danniang what is so urgent?

Ma Da Niang said, "My child's father had an emergency, this is not, I'm trying to go back to my mother's home to borrow some money, and then go to the market to buy medicine it."

The good Yong heart a happy said, "Ma Daniang, I have a fruit, give Uncle Ma eat, he will be better. Please believe me!"

Dame Ma looked at the fruit in Shan Yong's hand half-heartedly and said questioningly, "Is this true?"

"Please believe me! Eating this fruit will definitely cure Uncle Ma's illness!"

Dame Ma then took one of the fruits that Shan Yong had picked and went back home. Shan Yong took the rest of the fruit and went home too.

After eating lunch, Shan Yong was about to go out to borrow a cow to plow the field, when Ma Danniang Ma uncle was carrying a basket of eggs toward his house miles, see Shan Yong to go out, Ma Danniang hastened to say, "Little brother ah, thanks to your fruit ah, not long after eating, the old man's illness all of a sudden healed!

Uncle Ma handed over a basket of eggs with a smile on his face and said, "This is a small token of our appreciation."

Shan Yong quickly waved his hand and said, "We are neighbors, it is appropriate to help each other, uncle auntie or take things back."

Uncle Ma looked at Shan Yong and said with a smile, "You are going out to borrow a cow to plow the field, right?" Shan Yong nodded.

"Little brother ah, do not need to go outside to borrow, my family raised two cows, one is ready to sell it, so, I will send you a cow."

Shan Yong hastily waved his hand and said, "How can this be, after all, your cattle have also been raised for so many years, I...I am how can I want it?"

Uncle Ma smiled and said, "Oh, well, I'll lend you the cow to finish plowing the farmland and return it to me, okay?"

Shan Yong hastily thanked Uncle Ma. The first thing that happened was that his sister-in-law overheard him in her own house.

The good just came back in the evening, saw his sister-in-law sullenly sitting in the room, asked why did not cook? The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty and get out of the way.

The sister-in-law told Shan Gang what happened at noon. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.

The sister-in-law said angrily, "There is such a good fruit, he actually gave it to outsiders, you are his brother, why he did not give it to you?"

Shan Gang said to his sister-in-law, "Don't worry, look at me, I'll ask him for it!"

The older brother came to his brother's house with a cheeky grin.

The younger brother saw his brother and asked, "Has he eaten yet?"

The brother smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law is cooking it, brother ah, I heard that you have a magical fruit in your hands, the kind that can cure diseases?"

The good Yong then told the original story to the good just listen, good just listen and jealous and sigh, he said: "Since the parents left the two of us passed away, has not been living a good life, this is good, with such a good fruit, if we pick down to the market to sell, it will be able to make a fortune." Shan Yong said, "Good, just listen to brother."

In this way, my brother and sister-in-law took baskets to the foot of the mountain to the field under the tree, began to "sweep".

In a short while the tree fruit picking all, sister-in-law fast hands, picked a full basket, good Yong in the back to follow, looking at the tree did not leave a fruit, the brother sighed helplessly.

The next day, the brother and sister-in-law picked the fruit to sell in the market. Someone asked, "What kind of fruit is this?"

"A fruit that cures diseases."

So everyone crowded around and fought to buy, not long after the fruit sold out, sister-in-law heart suddenly happy flowers.

Just when the brother and sister-in-law are ready to close the stall, everyone has come again, have picked up the "fruit" angry, "you this liar! What kind of bullshit fruit is this? Is this a fruit that can cure diseases? It's just a pile of shit! Give me back my money!"

"Liar! Give me back my money! Liar! Give me my money back!" Everyone pushed and shoved the brother and sister-in-law on the money snatched away. Sister-in-law angry crying, brother on the spot also received a few punches.

Brother angrily took the empty basket back, sister-in-law saw the good Yong, and scolded a head.

The brother was even more difficult, he picked up an axe and furiously chopped down the tree at the head of the field.

The saddened Sunyoung went back to his house and saw that the fruit he had picked earlier was still sparkling from time to time!

"Is it really shit?" He's asking himself.

"If it's really useless, it's weird to throw it away, so I'll just eat it." Sunyoung put it in his mouth feeling sweet.

"How is this shit?" Sunyoung muttered, "It's clearly sweet fruit!"

The next day Sunnyong came to the downed tree, and could not help but feel sadness, and was silently shedding tears!

"Young man." The mysterious old fairy appeared again. "Why are you crying here?"

"Old grandpa, you don't know wow, my brother picked these fruits to go to the bazaar to buy them, and they all turned into shit for some reason."

"Hahaha..." the old god laughed, "This is supposed to be changed by your dog, those who are kind get it and turn it into immortal fruits, those who are greedy get it and turn it into shit."

"Old Grandpa, thank you for always helping me."

The old fairy said, "It's your own goodness that's helping you. A few days ago, your brother and sister-in-law helped remove the "shit" from this tree.

So Shan Yong carried the tree back and made it into a wooden basin.

After a while, there was a famine in the village, and the harvest was not as good as in the previous years, so every family was struggling to make ends meet. The good Yong family has no rice, this time he put some of the only rice into the wooden basin, went out to work, and when he came back, he was surprised to find that the wooden basin is filled with a basin full of rice! At that time, the neighbor's small stone happened to come to borrow rice, good Yong said nothing to give him a bowl of rice. The neighbor's sister-in-law sees him, and she rushes back to her room to tell her husband about the incident.

The sister-in-law stomped her feet and said, "Your brother is really cruel, you know that your brother and sister-in-law are worried about their livelihood all day long, and you don't know how to help them out."

Good just consoled, "Wait, I go to ask Shan Yong to rice back."

Once again, the brother came to Shan Yong's house and saw Shan Yong cooking rice.

Shan Yong saw Shan Gang coming and asked, "Brother, have you cooked yet?"

The brother said while wiping tears, "Brother ah, these days, your brother and sister-in-law have not entered a grain of rice? The family has no rice to cook, how can I tell my brother and sister-in-law what to do in the days to come?"

When Shan Yong heard this, he felt compassion, and said, "Don't be sad, I have some rice here.

The brother happily brought a big bucket from home and scooped up all the rice left in the wooden basin.

Returning to her own home, she looked at the bucket of white rice in her husband's hand, and her sister-in-law's heart burst with joy. She quickly scooped up a bowl of rice and opened the stove to cook.

A while, the rice is almost done, sister-in-law opened the pot to see, immediately scared silly, immediately screamed, the original pot cooked a pot of fluff. Good just listen to the screams rushed to see, and shocked and angry, rushed to his brother's home on his brother and is beating and scolding.

Sure enough, it did not take long, the brother found the ground full of exotic flowers and grasses, he was malicious, swinging a wood knife, chopping off the vine, pulling down the buds ......

At this time, the good Yong and the beautiful woman happened to be in the home, suddenly, the woman "ouch! "The woman was very uncomfortable, at this time, the sky also darkened, and then pouring rain, the earth shaking, good Yong scared and quickly pulled the woman asked what happened? The woman was in pain and could not speak. At this time, the beautiful house is disappearing little by little, not long after the house is back to its original form, the beautiful woman is also gone. The only thing left is the good Yong sitting on the ground and crying.

At this time, the brother also came back, hand wringing firewood knife, wet, see the younger brother's house back to its original state, a sense of balance, so they sat on the threshold of the caricature laughed ......

Shan Yong came to the ground alone, looking at the ground full of stumps and broken vines, looking at the ground full of withered buds, he slowly said; "Brother, what you did was just too much!"

"Hahaha..." a burst of laughter came from behind him, and Shan Yong turned around to see that it was that old god who had come.

"Old grandpa, why? Why is that?"

The old fairy stroked his whiskers and smiled and said, "Don't be bitter, your brother's bad intentions have their own retribution; if you have a good heart, of course you will have good rewards. You see, what is this?"

The good Yong look, it is the former brother was killed by the dog, now has come to life, is the old fairy side of the wagging tail it! Good Yong was overjoyed, he said, "My dog, so you are still alive, great! Old Grandpa, thank you for saving my dog!"

"Hahaha...don't thank me, if you want to thank me, thank yourself."

"There's one thing I don't understand, when brother destroyed the vines and flowers here, why is everything gone? I still hope that old grandpa will tell me."

"This is a piece of the dog's love affair, your brother cut off the love affair with the dog, of course this dog now completely belongs to you la. You take the dog back and live your life in peace!"

When the brother saw that his brother was coming back with the dog, he was shocked and frightened, and soon fell ill.

The neighbors were all eager to match him with their neighbors, and he soon got married, and the fields he cultivated yielded a good harvest every year. He was able to get a good harvest from his fields every year.

The story of a man who was sick for many years, and his sister-in-law, who had left her husband for many years, is not a good example of the kind of life he had.

On this day, Shan Yong and his wife came to visit his brother. Brother good just thankful brother, a thousand feelings, all sorts of past events surging in the heart, do not feel the heart of a sour, sniveling and crying, "brother ah, brother is not a person, brother sorry you ah!"

"Brother ah, don't say that. When father and mother left us, our two brothers have always helped each other ah. There has never been any rivalry between brothers..."

The next day, the older brother Shan Gang died, and his younger brother buried him in a generous manner. Every year at Qingming Shan Yong went to pay his respects.

In front of the grave, the younger brother always said, "Brother ah, to say sorry, should be the younger brother ah, at that time know that there is a god to bless me, but did not stop the older brother in time, the result is to let you fall down, the achievement of the younger brother ................................................"

A few years later, a crazy bitch came to the village, and the villagers all closed their doors to avoid it. Only Shan Yong kindly gave her a bowl of rice, Shan Yong to the crazy mother-in-law to take a closer look, surprised, burst into tears, he rushed to call his wife, gifted her clothing and food.

When she had gone away, his wife asked in bewilderment, "Why are you so kind to a mad old woman?"

"Because, she is none other than the sister-in-law who left her brother for many years." Shan Yong said sadly.
