Story:
Yuan Mei, a poet in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, wrote a story in Woods: In Jinan, Shandong Province today, there was a rich man with countless money at home, but he was very stingy and his neighbors knew him. Someone secretly nicknamed him "Iron Rooster", which means he is stingy and penniless.
One day, the rich man wanted to marry a concubine, but he made a harsh request to the matchmaker-the concubine should be outstanding in appearance, but only a pitiful dowry. A few days later, the matchmaker led a woman to see the rich man. This woman doesn't want a dowry at all, just wants to ensure the basic needs of life. The rich man was beaming and soon married this woman and became a concubine.
Half a year passed in a blink of an eye, and the rich man went to check his treasured money as usual, only to find that the warehouse was empty. Only after careful and strict interrogation did the rich man discover that his new concubine turned out to be his old tenant.
At first, the rich thought that she had caused a lot of unnecessary waste, so she was driven out of the house. The reason why this woman agreed to be a concubine of the rich without a dowry was to get back at him. She quietly stole the rich man's accumulated wealth of gold and silver and plucked all his feathers.
