A short story on the bank of the Yangtze River

* Three Gorges Zanthoxylum bungeanum *

As far back as the flood years, Dayu led thousands of troops to dredge the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. People who suffered from the flood returned to their homeland one after another, cultivated land and planted seeds, and lived a pastoral life again.

In the water conservancy army, there was an old doctor who followed Dayu with his little granddaughter. This girl is beautiful and smart. Her name is Zanthoxylum bungeanum. She followed her grandfather around all day, treating water conservancy migrant workers and local people. Dayu dredged the Three Gorges and was about to move to other places, but an epidemic eye disease happened here. A girl close to Zanthoxylum bungeanum is skinny because of the pain of eye diseases. Under the treatment of pepper, she finally cured her eye disease. The girl is grateful in every way. However, people suffering from eye diseases and various diseases keep coming. Seeing this, Zanthoxylum couldn't bear to leave here with his grandfather, so he asked him to stay in the Three Gorges. Grandpa thought she was thirteen or fourteen. Weak and uneasy, she insisted on following the expedition. Zanthoxylum made up his mind and went to uncle Dayu to intercede with grandpa. Dayu saw that this innocent little girl had a heart for the people and liked it very much, but he wanted to test her medical skills on the spot, so he asked her for several prescriptions for intractable diseases, and she could answer them like a stream and prescribe the right medicine. Then let her cure a person's eye disease alone. She really rejuvenated and the medicine was withdrawn, and the patient's illness soon recovered. Grandpa nodded and said yes. Dayu satisfactorily persuaded Zanthoxylum's grandfather to leave her in the Three Gorges.

Zanthoxylum bungeanum has sent grandpa and the water conservancy army away. Like her grandfather used to make house calls, she carried a small medicine box and wandered around, treating anyone who was sick. Over time, many patients have recovered. The locals all like her and call Zanthoxylum bungeanum "Doctor Girl". Later, due to the dense forest and humid land in this area, damp-heat eye diseases were widespread. In serious areas, people go from house to house sick and groan, and some of them are blind. Seeing this situation, Zanthoxylum bungeanum was in a hurry, and when one person was too busy, he mobilized everyone to find a medicine with white flowers and strong taste to treat it. The curative effect is very remarkable and good. Since then, it has become a specific drug for treating eye diseases. People transplant this kind of sapling to the front and back of their own house for the convenience of picking. In order to prevent eye diseases, add some fragrant and hemp red seeds to the dishes for three meals a day. Over time, this little red seed has become a seasoning, and together with pepper, it has become a unique flavor of dishes-spicy.

From generation to generation. Later generations called this nameless little red seed "Zanthoxylum bungeanum" in memory of Zanthoxylum bungeanum.

* Wushan fragrant pear *

In Wushan area of Daning River, there is a kind of fragrant pear, which is big and sweet and deeply loved by people. This fragrant pear has a history.

Once upon a time, in Xiangjiawan in front of Longfeng Mountain in Wuxia, there lived a hardworking and simple farmer named Xiang. He has three sons: the oldest is sixteen, the youngest is twenty-five and the youngest is thirty-three.

This year, an old man suddenly became seriously ill and his life was dying. He called his three sons to the bed, stretched out his black, thin, calloused hands and asked, "Tell me, what is the greatest use of this hand?"

"End the bowl to eat." The boss blurted out. Wave discontentedly at the old man.

The second child said, "hit with your fist!" " To the old man shook his head again.

The third replied, "hands are born to be the way."

After listening to the old man's answer, he immediately showed a satisfied smile on the old man's sad face: "By the way, hands are used to live! If people don't make a living, where does this basic necessities come from? After I die, you will divide the land equally, and the rest will be a cemetery for me. Then, everyone should do it according to their own hopes and ideals! You must come to my grave together in ten years and let me have a look. " Then the old man died.

According to their father's instructions, the three brothers arranged the funeral, divided the property equally, and then arranged their own lives separately.

The boss is always a little lazy. When his father died and nobody cared about him, he sold his share of the land and went out for a walk with the money. In less than a year, the money was used up. No choice, he had to go to the field, pull out a radish and dig a nest of sweet potatoes to satisfy his hunger. When winter came, it was freezing, and all the crops on the slope went into the warehouse, so he went to someone else's house to steal them. ...

The second brother is almost the same as the boss. Before long, he abandoned his share of land and went to be a beggar. Begging for food, people think he is young and strong, but he is idle and wants to eat ready-made food. Not only does he not give it, but he often scolds him. But instead of changing, he punched and kicked people, forced them to beg for food after winning, and later robbed people's property.

Only the third one, since his father died, has been diligently planting crops in his hometown, sowing Xia Geng in spring, harvesting in autumn and storing in winter. He works hard all the year round, planting vegetables and raising livestock and poultry every morning. He also planted rows of pear trees around the garden. Within a few years, there are plenty of food, rich vegetables, flocks of chickens and ducks, full of cattle and sheep, and fruitful pear trees.

Ten years passed quickly.

It was the day when the old man died of illness. The three brothers did not forget their father's last words, so they went to the old man's grave by different paths. Little brother was the first to arrive, because his home was nearby, and because his two brothers had been out for ten years and there was no news, he was eager to see them, so he came here early to wait. Before long, the ragged and unkempt eldest brother came along a winding muddy path. He was lame from stealing steak and walked slowly and laboriously. The third child was about to give him a hand. He saw a man in tights with a single knife in his back and jumped down from a cliff hanging halfway up the mountain. At first glance, it turned out to be the second brother, with a faint scar on his face.

It is natural that the three brothers meet after such a long separation. Ask each other about the situation after separation.

In a short time, Lao San's wife invited nine bowls and eight bowls of sumptuous wine and feasted her two brothers warmly. After dinner, she brought a big basket of fragrant pears just picked from her own tree for her brothers to taste. Big Brother and Second Brother are chewing crisp and sweet pears in their mouths, and their eyes are very excited when they look at the courtyard with blue tiles and white walls at the foot of the mountain, especially the fragrant pear trees with full slopes and forests. They looked at the wonderful life of the third child, then at themselves, holding their younger brother and crying. Then they knelt in shame at their father's grave and cried, "Dad! This hand, this hand ... What's the hand for? We understand! "

The old couple invited their two brothers to stay at home for a few days, but the eldest and the second declined politely, but each asked the third for a large bundle of pear seedlings, and went to Wangjiawan and Huangjiaba in Daning River respectively to reclaim land, plant trees and start a new home with their own hands.

Why is Wushan fragrant pear, which is well-known in the Three Gorges, still abundant in Xiangjiawan, Wangjiawan and Huangjiaba? It is said that it has something to do with the three brothers. Many golden spots can be seen on the fragrant pear like jade, which people call "sweat spots". According to legend, it was formed by pear tree growers sprinkling sweat on the pear tree. The pear with the biggest "sweat spot" is the pear farmer who sweats the most on it and tastes the most fragrant and sweet.
