The dog bit Lu Dongbin and he didn’t know what it meant to have a good heart.

It is said that Lu Dongbin was a very wealthy businessman, but he was very charitable and often helped the poor to do good deeds, so he was respected by his neighbors from all over the country. One winter, when Lu Dongbin went out, he met a young man of eighteen or nineteen who was shivering in the wind. When Lu Dongbin saw this, he felt pity and asked the young man why he was freezing in the open air. The young man told him that his name was Gou Yao, and he was originally a scholar. Not long ago, his family suddenly encountered a lawsuit. His father was wrongfully beaten to death, and his mother was furious. Some of the family's real estate and property were confiscated, leaving only I was wandering alone, freezing and hungry all day long. I hadn't eaten for several days. Lu Dongbin saw that this young man named Gou Yao was polite and scholarly, so he asked Gou Yao to come with him to his home and provide him with food, food, and housing so that he could study. Gou Yao was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately knelt down to thank his benefactor and left with Lu Dongbin.

After Bin brought Goujiao home, he didn’t want him to do anything. As long as he studied hard every day, he would have a good future in Huangbang High School. Everyone in the neighborhood said that Lu Dongbin Waiting for a dog to bite you is better than your own children. This Gou Yao is really up to his game. He studies hard and stays at home all day long, and his knowledge is getting better day by day. Unconsciously, a year has passed and the exam is approaching. On this day, a guest came to Lu Dongbin's house. His surname was Lin. He was Lu Dongbin's old friend. He hadn't been to his house for a long time. Naturally, Lu Dongbin entertained the guests warmly, serving up good wine and meat. After seeing Gou Yao, a friend named Lin asked Lu Dongbin for information because he didn't know him. Lu Dongbin told him the situation of Gou Biao one by one. After hearing this, my friend surnamed Lin sympathized with and admired Gou Yao's family situation and his determination to pursue knowledge. In addition, seeing Gou Yao's good looks and talent, he expected that he would be successful in the future, so he fell in love with him. He went to Lu Dongbin to discuss it and said that he was willing to betroth his daughter to him. I wonder if he could agree? Lu Dongbin wanted Gou Yao to study. Now that the exam is coming, he was afraid that Gou Yao would be distracted when talking about marriage, so he really didn't want to agree. But I couldn't refute my friend's face, so I had to excuse myself and said that I wanted to ask Gou Yao himself. A friend named Lin was eager to find a son-in-law, so he immediately took Lu Dongbin to Gou Yao and asked him face to face if he was willing. When Gou Yao heard that there was such a good offer, there was no reason why he didn't want to, so he agreed wholeheartedly. Lu Dongbin had nothing to say now, and he couldn't go back on his words. Seeing that the exam was only two months away, what if Gou Yao misses his future because of his greed for the pleasure of bed, wouldn't all the previous efforts be wasted? After thinking about it, he thought that he should find a way to prevent Gou Yao from getting married. So Lu Dongbin called Gou Yao aside and said that it was okay to get married, but he had to agree to one of his conditions, which was that Gou Yao was not allowed to enter the bridal chamber for the first three days of the wedding. Instead, he had to read by candle until dawn, while he stayed at the wedding instead of Gou Yao. Bridal room supervision. I originally wanted to use this condition to make Gou Yao give up the idea of ??getting married, but Gou Yao was so eager to get married that he actually agreed. Lu Dongbin could only agree to let Gou Yao get married before taking the exam. The wedding was very lively and grand. After the bride and groom had paid their respects to heaven and earth, Lu Dongbin sent away the guests with great fanfare, then called Gou Yao to the study to study, while he himself entered the bridal chamber, sat at the table, and read. The bride could not see the groom's face through the red scarf. After entering the bridal chamber, she sat on the bed and wanted to wait for the groom to take off the red scarf to rest together and enjoy the happiness of the wedding. Unexpectedly, the "groom" in front of me didn't come near. I was a woman and I was too embarrassed to take the initiative to attract him. So, the wedding night passed like this. The second and third days continued like this. On the fourth night, Lu Dongbin said to Gou Yao: "You can enter the bridal chamber, but don't delay your studies because of your greed for bed status." After Gou Yao agreed, he immediately entered the bridal chamber to reunite with his newlywed wife. The bride was puzzled by what had happened in the past few days. She was very surprised when she saw that this young and handsome man was not the same "groom" she had vaguely seen in the past few nights. After the story was told, the bride also told what happened in the past three nights, and the two of them suddenly realized that Lu Dongbin had worked hard and really hoped that Gou Yao could become famous in the exam. The two of them were very moved at the moment. Gou Yao vowed to seize the time to study and get a good reputation in the exam. His wife also expressed that she would fully support her husband in the exam. The day of taking the exam is here in a blink of an eye. Gou Yao lived up to expectations and got third place in the imperial examination. Not long after, he received a letter of appointment and was sent to serve as an official in another place. Before leaving, Gou Yao asked Lu Dongbin to go with him so that he could enjoy the happiness. Lu Dongbin said: "I have a family and property, and I have no worries in my life. When you just took office, you still have to do your own business first. I will not go with you. Seeing that I couldn't persuade Lu Dongbin, I had to take my wife to take office. Parting The two families said goodbye to each other in tears.

?As the saying goes, there are unforeseen circumstances. More than a year after Gou Jie left, a fire broke out in Lu Dongbin's house and burned all the property in the house. The family first relied on financial aid from relatives and friends, but later on, the relatives and friends no longer wanted to pay attention to him, and it became difficult to maintain their lives. On this day, Lu Dongbin's wife discussed with him, saying that we used to support Gou Yao's studies and made him famous and promoted. Now that we are in trouble, it is better to go to him to borrow some money to start a business. Lu Dongbin refused to go because he was afraid of being laughed at, but he couldn't stand the pressure of life, so he had to go to Gou Yao to borrow money. After walking for more than ten days, I finally found Gou Yao's house. Seeing his benefactor arriving, Gou Yao was very happy and prepared a banquet to entertain him. During the dinner, Lu Dongbin told him about the changes in his family in the past two years, and politely proposed to borrow some money to build a house and business capital for his family. After hearing this, Gou Jie didn't say anything about borrowing or not, but just entertained him to drink, eat meat, and play around every day. After two months of this kind of life, Lu Dongbin was so anxious thinking about his wife, children, and children that they had no food and shelter at home. He couldn't rest anymore, so one day he left without saying goodbye and went home by himself. Along the way, Lu Dongbin thought about how he had helped Gou Yao so generously, but now Gou Yao was ruthless and refused to help him. He couldn't help but feel very angry. He told everyone he met on the road about Gou Yao, and everyone listened to him. It is unjust to accuse someone of biting and ruthlessness, and not to repay the kindhearted people. When he returned home, Lu Dongbin was surprised to find that a new house had been built on the land where his original burned down house was. It was much more beautiful than his original old house. Lu Dongbin didn't know whose new house it belonged to, so he didn't dare to go in. Suddenly he heard crying in the new house, and it seemed like someone was calling his name. He tentatively took a closer look and saw a coffin in the front hall, and those kneeling in front of the coffin and crying were his wife and children. Lu Dongbin hurried forward and asked who died. Unexpectedly, his wife was so frightened when she saw him that she even asked him if he was a human or a ghost. Lu Dongbin asked the reason. After his wife calmed down, the two talked about the situation after they separated. ?It turns out that life at home has been very difficult since Lu Dongbin left home. About 20 days later, a group of people suddenly came. Unexpectedly, they built a new house on the land of his old house. It was just completed the day before yesterday. Yesterday, several people came again, carrying a coffin, saying that it contained Lu Dongbin. , just died a few days ago. He died of cholera. The coffin could not be opened, so he carried it into the new house and left. The wife couldn't help crying when she thought about the tragic experience at home. Unexpectedly, Lu Dongbin came back safe and sound. Lü Dongbin thought something strange and asked his children to find an iron axe. He opened the coffin and saw a jar inside. Inside the jar was a jar full of silver and a note. Lü Dongbin picked it up and read it. There are four sentences in it: You are not a heartless man. You send a lot of money to build a house. You let my wife guard the empty house, and I made your wife cry heartbroken. It turned out that this was Gou Yao's little joke when he was secretly helping Lu Dongbin. After this story spread, because of the homophonic pronunciation of "dog bite", there was a saying that "a dog bites Lu Dongbin and does not recognize a good heart".
