The story about Song Jiang

More than 30 miles north of Yuncheng, there is a Shouzhang County. There is a Zhangjialou not far south of Shouzhang County and Songjiazhuang. There is a man named Zhang Wenchao in Zhangjialou. He has thousands of acres of fertile land and is also a noble family. He has three brothers, the second old man died young, and his two younger brothers grew up with him. The second is Jin Wen, and the third is Wen Yuan. They are all people who can't read, do business or farm.

Wen Chao's obsession with his two younger brothers is endless. He made some friends with Wen, fighting and dominating his neighbors. Wen is close to martial arts, and he makes guns with some unscrupulous young people with simple minds and developed limbs all day long; The third man stayed away from studying, didn't study hard, didn't make any achievements in his studies, and ate, drank and had fun. Wen went beyond the scope of money and bought him a company in Yuncheng County.

Although Zhangjialou and Songjiazhuang are under the jurisdiction of two counties, the distance is very close, and the land even borders. Zhang and Song planted flowers in many places, and they were staggered.

Sometimes, long-term workers in Zhang Wenchao often walk back and forth from the land of Song Taigong. After a long time, they walk out of a road, which makes the land of Song family washed away by half, and one piece of land becomes two pieces, which is not convenient for farming. Song Taigong was speechless about this matter, and he sulked when he thought about it. Song Jiang is a dutiful son, and his father is often unhappy. He once asked, "What are you thinking? Why are you unhappy? Are the sons unfilial or have other secrets? "

Song Taigong expressed his concern about the inconvenience of planting flowers in the Zhang family. After listening to this, Song Jiang put down a stone in his heart and advised his father, "As the saying goes, a thousand acres of land leads to a hundred roads. One cannot lead the way in farming. It is natural to cross our land. People will not leave if they have nothing to do! " Mrs. Song recognized the principle of cultivator. People can only live by farming and collecting food. Farmers don't love land!

Song Jiang advised Quan to talk about the present and said to his father, "The Great Wall of Wan Li is still here today, but Qin Shihuang is not there. There is no need to love things outside. People are alive and the earth is dead. We can't hurt the goodwill of our neighbors because of the earth. "

Don't worry, I will go to Zhanglou tomorrow to discuss with Wen Chao. "Song squire nodded and agreed.

The next day, Sung River beat Ma Rufei and headed for Zhanglou. Walking, I saw two men tearing on the road, blocking the road. A donkey is gnawing at crops by the roadside. Sung river dismounted and stopped him. "You two brothers have something to say. Why did you fight? "

A fat black man said, "You go your way, I'll hit mine, it's none of your business!" " "

Another man said, "This yellow boy dominates the village, and he is worse than an animal. He said with a grin, look at his bear. He scolds as soon as he opens his mouth, and hits as soon as he raises his hand. He has been practicing boxing for two years, which is too bullying. "

Song Jiang also advised: "Folks, don't hurt the harmony, that's all!"

The man in black not only refused to listen, but also swore at Song Jiang: "It's none of your business if I teach this boy a lesson. You're an asshole who jumped out of there and worried about eating radishes. Sir Zhong just wants to hit someone. How dare you control me and Sir Zhong? " Song Jiang was angry for a moment: "I'll pay for the donkey's eating crops, but I can't hit people!" " "

The black man cocked his head and grinned: "You lost, you have to be beaten!" " After that, he punched Song Jiang, and Song Jiang raised his hand and answered. Then one leg swept away, and the man in black planted a dog to eat shit. Got up and refused to accept, jumped up and slammed into Song Jiang. Song Jiang had a flash of inspiration and gave it to him. The black man keeps a dog to dry the eggs. This time, the black boy took it and got up and asked Song Jiang to forgive him. "I don't know my brother's name. Where did you come from and where did you go?

I don't know if I have offended you, but I hope my brother will be angry. "Sung river stepped forward, rolled up the black dress person and said," I'm Saburo Sung river from Songjiazhuang, and I'm going to Zhanglou to meet my boss Zhang Wenchao. Hearing this, the man in black bowed respectfully and said, "I don't know Mount Tai. It turns out that Brother Sung Jiang is here, and Wen Chao is my eldest brother. I am the second, I am famous. "

Song Jiang smiled and said, "The Longwang Temple was flooded, and the family didn't recognize it. Missed, missed! " Song Jiang quickly turned to the man holding the donkey and said, "Don't apologize to the second brother. Take care of the donkey in the future."

The donkey man wanted to accompany Jin Wen and quickly said, "Nothing, nothing." The donkey man bid farewell to Song Jiang and Jin Wen. Jin Wen led Sung River to Zhanglou.

Sung River and Jin Wenjin entered the village and looked up, magnificent. The building faces south, with bright doors, and the stones are unloaded, about five steps ahead. There is a gold plaque of "Jishan Family" hanging on the door; Jin Wen shouted; "Who will pick up the Song San brothers!" Out of a few people, holding the horse, to meet, Zhang Wenchao learns of the arrival of the sung river, then a few steps to meet the door. A line of three people, Wen Chao in the front, Song Jiang in the middle, Jin Wen in the back, entered the door, and entered the living room, sat down to talk, served fruit and made tea.

Zhang Wenchao asked, "Welcome to my humble abode, Brother Sung Jiang!"

Song Jiang said, "I'm here today to discuss something with my brother. I'm here to disturb you!"

Wen Chao said, "Brother Sung Jiang is too foreign. Whatever we can do, we must help him. Just forget it． Please tell me directly. "

Song Jiang said, "I've come to discuss land exchange with my brother."

Wen Chao was very happy to hear this: "We have this intention for a long time. Because your home is good, my home is poor in geology and I dare not mention it. "

Song Jiang said, "You are wrong. The earth is dead and people are alive. As the saying goes, "people coax their stomachs." It all depends on seeds! "On the other hand, they were talking and laughing when suddenly someone came in.

Who is this man? It is none other than Wen Yuan, the third brother of Wen Chao who came home from Yuncheng. Introduce each other, be as close as friends, and the banquet will come up as soon as it is said. What did Wen Yuan do to go home? Recently, there was a difficult case in Yuncheng, which was handed over to Wen Yuan. He is very worried about this and wants to discuss it with his two brothers when he gets home. He happened to meet Song Jiang, and you thought he would be unhappy. The magistrate of a county also wanted Wen Yuan to find another competent undertaker, and met Song Jiang here. During the conversation, Wen Yuan saw that Sung River was a talented person, so he wanted to recommend Sung River to the magistrate of a county. After that, Song Jiang was of course happy.

Step 2 save people on the road

Song Jiang left Zhang Gulou and made an appointment with Zhang Wenyuan. As long as his father agrees, let him take office in Yuncheng on the third day. Song Jiang returned home and told his father about the land change. Song Taigong is certainly happy. Zhang Wenyuan recommended him to go to Liu Xiahui County as a company again, and Song Taigong was even happier after listening to it. Save enough money to let Song Qing accompany Song Jiang to his post.

Song Jiang and Song Qing, two brothers in tandem, hurried the horse into the county seat and walked slowly in the long street. A group of men and women gathered at the crossroads, and they crowded together to see a rare thing. Approached, the two brothers got off the horse and the people around them dispersed automatically. They laughed as they walked, some wiped their eyes and tears, some shook their heads and said nothing.

Sung River looked at the corner of Cross Street and saw a man and a woman. The man was seventeen or eighteen years old, tall, broad-chested, sallow-looking, eyes closed, lying on the ground, and his whole body shrank. The woman was about fifteen or sixteen years old, unkempt, tearful, and put her hands on the man. Seeing this, Song Jiang took a few steps and asked, "Why are you so?" When the woman asked, she raised her tears and knelt in front of Song Jiang: "Good uncle, be kind and save my brother's life!" !

He was ill for three days and didn't get any soup. I'm from Linqing. My second brother's name is Song Ge and my name is Ling Mei. My parents were forced to die because of debts. My eldest brother was arrested to pay his debts, and he still wants me to pay my debts. My second brother led me out and came here sick like this. My brother has something good, and I can't live. I have no relatives or friends here, uncle. Will you? "

Sung river shed two tears, took two steps forward and touched the man's head with his hand. It burns very hot, or he will die if he doesn't try to cure it. Song Qing was quickly stopped. "Go and ask a doctor for a diagnosis." Song Jiang looked out. "Please help and carry him to the front inn." When Song Jiang shouted, a large number of people pretended not to hear and left, and two ragged people carried Brother Zan to the front of the inn.

When he arrived at the inn, Song Jiang paid the money for opening a shop in January and gave Sister Song twelve taels of silver. Just then, Song Qing invited a doctor. The doctor felt his pulse and said, "The cold is too bad. I read it a little late and need to eat more than a dozen prescriptions. "

Song Jiang asked, "How much do I have to pay for the medicine?"

Langzhong said, "Twelve Grain Towns"

Song Jiang then took out twelve taels of silver and gave it to the doctor: "I am in the county government, so you must take good care of this disease. I will pay back if the money is not enough! "

The doctor said, "Enough, enough!"

Song Jiang turned to Song Mei and said, "Hello, please wait for your brother. Come to the county government for me if you need anything. My name is Song Jiang! " Say it after you leave. Sister Song knelt down and kowtowed, "Uncle, I will never forget your old saving my life!"

After Song Jiang left, you AE's illness was treated by the doctor and he soon recovered. How will Song Ge Song Mei live in the future?

3. Refers to the ancient wine case

Song Jiang and Song Qing went to the county government, and the viceroy had taken them. As soon as Song Jiang reported his surname, he got busy. Some rushed to lead horses, some left in a hurry, some packed their bags in a hurry, and too many cooks welcomed Song Jiang and Song Qingying into the official's son. Song Jiang looked at the leaders, tall, short, fat, thin, ugly, handsome, old, young, smart and stupid. They all greeted Song Jiang with smiles on their faces.

Busy up and down, Song Jianggang arrived at the residence, and Zhang Wenyuan came in with a smile, holding Song Jiang's hand in both hands: "Brother, you can come. These three days have passed like a year, and I think my brother will definitely come. " Song Jiang said, "My father is also very happy. How can I break my promise to my brother? " After talking for a while, Song Jiang was arranged to stay. Zhang Wenyuan said, "Brother, I will tell the magistrate to satisfy his brother as soon as possible."

Song Jiangdao: "My official business is busy, but my brother is just busy. I have settled here. Thank you for your concern inside and outside. " After Zhang Wenyuan left, the director and Song Qingan arranged beds.

After lunch, Song Jiang sent Song Qing away. Song Jiang said to Song Qing, "When I leave home, I will become an official, so I will not be free. You should be filial to your father and entrust you to your brother. " Song Qing said: "As the saying goes, it is good to stay at home for a thousand days, but it is difficult to go out at that time. You need to take care of yourself in cold and warm conditions. My brother and I will be proud of everything, don't worry. " The two brothers broke up and are reluctant to part, so I won't say much.

Song Jiang doesn't often go back to his mansion. Zhang Wenyuan came in with a smile. He met Song Jiang and said, "Congratulations, brother, I'm going to find the magistrate of a county. He wants to meet you. " Sung river said nothing else. He quickly followed Zhang Wenyuan into the second hall and went forward to salute: "Song Jiang, a grass man, is here to see the magistrate." The magistrate of a county said, "Duke Song is free." Sung river got up and stood by. The magistrate of a county added, "Duke Song is a famous figure in this county. He is well-read and versatile. I am very happy to be on a business trip. "

Song Jiang saluted: "I'm flattered. My adult is the parent of a county. They are honest and clean. The court sang praises, and the people praised virtue. Everyone knows that Song Jiang is an empty and loyal grassroots who has no ability to serve the country. Now it is wrongly loved by adults. Although I am everywhere, I am afraid that it will be difficult to report in case. " The magistrate of a county saw Song Jiang's good words and deeds, plus Song Jiang's praise for his songs, and he got carried away. Then let sung river as a backup company. Magistrate of a county immediately handed over Zhang Wenyuan's unfinished case, and his uncle and uncle filed a lawsuit against Sung River. What case is sung river working on?

The aunt and uncle's lawsuit, in the hands of magistrate of a county and Zhang Wenyuan, has become a tricky and tricky case. If it's not good, it's really the child's mouth-it's going to stink.

Sung river took the case, nodded, knowing. The next day, Song Jiang called the parties to the dispute to the county government. As soon as the two families entered the county government, they all scrambled to be plaintiffs. How did Song Jiang break it? He just made both families defendants. When summoned for trial, they all told them, "Someone accused you of kidnapping." In this way, grass has grown in the shoe baskets of both families-they are afraid of making a big fuss and can't afford to lose it.

Song Jiang said to himself, "It's difficult for a new official to take office with three heads and three feet. I didn't expect the first kick to hit the heart of the magistrate. This foot must hurt them. Give his two families a scare first, and then they can do things. " Finish this case tomorrow morning. Let Uncle menstruation eat twenty-five mice in one bite-scratching their hearts with their paws, and both of them are on pins and needles. That's it, four days at a time.

On the fifth day, Song Jiang was in charge of the case of Gu Jiu's dispute. After Song Jiangchuan arrived at the official residence, Song Jiangchuan heard them in the second hall.

Song Jiang went to court, and both parties to the dispute came to the court to have a look. They saw that it was not the magistrate who interrogated him personally, but an agent of Song Jiang who had just arrived, and it was almost crisp. Song Jiang pointed to them and said, "You are both relatives of the magistrate. Don't stand on ceremony and stand aside." Two uncles stood on both sides, and Song Jiang added, "The Second Court is interrogating today, for fear that the case will get out and hurt the official's face. Do you two understand? " Both of them replied, "I understand." Song Jiang asked again, "What is an honest official?" Both of them answered, "Loyal to the monarch and love the people." Song Jiang asked again, "How about this dharma hall?"

Both of them replied: "The dharma hall is three feet, and the six parents deny it." Song Jiang added: "Good! Which one of you will speak first? " The two men argued, "I'll speak first, I'll speak first!" " "Song Jiang looked at them and said," Arguments that are rational and unreasonable, arguments that are unreasonable and useless; "Do you have anything to say after making a wish?" The uncle of the county magistrate said, "Let him speak first." Uncle magistrate proudly said, "Do you want me to say it first?" Song Jiang loudly said to the brave father of the magistrate: "Modesty comes first, rudeness comes last. Are you convinced? " Helpless, he had to nod and persuade, and retired second class.

Song Jiang turned to ask the uncle of the magistrate of a county, "Did you buy or hire your servant girl?" Uncle magistrate of a county replied; "Was hired. Two or two people are hired to look after the rice every year. I am single in summer, one or two in the first half of winter and one or two in the second half. " Song Jiang asked again, "What is the real evidence for your accusation that his parents have abducted your maid?" The magistrate uncle said, "Nothing!" Song Jiang said, "Why criticize others without evidence?"

The uncle of the county magistrate blushed and said, "I heard that he sued the official first, saying that the maid I hired had abducted his long-term workers." I would think that he relied on him as the magistrate's uncle, saying that the magistrate was his nephew, the magistrate was my wife's nephew. I sued him in anger! " Song Jiang said, "This is your fault. As the saying goes, you should take care of your loved ones and have something to discuss and solve. As the saying goes, wash your dirty linen in public. Do you think it's easy to go to court? Take my judgment and ask him to hire a maid for you. You can come and find someone in a few days. Do you want to pay a silver or two at the end of the year? What do you think of yesterday? " Yes! It's up to you! ""you step down. "

Song Jiang also changed the uncle of the magistrate of a county to the second hall according to the former law, and decided the case according to the former law: "Everything has a cause, and everything is in dispute. As the saying goes, making room is not enough! Ask him to hire a permanent worker for you in a few days, and you can get it yourself. At the end of the year, you have to pay a commission of 125 yuan to take care of the rice. What do you think? "

The magistrate uncle replied with satisfaction: "I still judged clearly." Song Jiang asked the magistrate to change to the magistrate's uncle and said in front of them, "You are both official relatives. Because of my long-term work and maid, I will make up with you, and you are still good relatives from now on. What do you two think? " The two men argued, "Make it clear," and Song Jiang said, "After five days, everyone has his own man, and there can be no mistakes."

After the case was concluded, the two families were very satisfied, and they all thought they were relatives of the magistrate, which made them lose face.

Who is this long-term worker and maid? It was none other than Brother Song and Sister Song. Song Jiang solved the contradiction between the two relatives and found a way to eat for the fallen brother and sister. It is really the best of both worlds.

Personality assessment

Jin Shengtan, a famous writer and literary critic in the early Qing Dynasty, had a special liking for Water Margin. He once commented on the Water Margin: "There is no article in the world about the Water Margin." In Jin Shengtan's eyes, "Water Margin" not only has the profound meaning of governing the country, but also has the meaning of being affectionate with children.

Misha Huailin's book "Rongyutang Engraving Water Margin" said, "If people are in Songjiang, they will worship and cry when they see people. He calls himself a petty official or a sinner. It's a false real robber, but it can clean up people's hearts, and it's not useless. At that time, if we took it as a stage, we could appoint a person, although we dared not fire a minister. "

Jin Shengtan decided that the author "hated Song Jiang's treachery". He thought that "Song Jiang just used his skills to win people's hearts", so "Shiqian and Song Jiangdu are first-class people" and "decided to take the exam" among 100 people.
