Kuozitou Village is located in the southeast of Hougou Ancient Village, the two villages are only separated by a ravine, that is, along the winding mountain road, it is only two or three miles away, which can be regarded as the close neighbor of Hougou Ancient Village. In the history of Kuozitou Village, there was a saying that the people of Kuozitou could only earn a living in the village and could not go out to seek development.

It is said that a long time ago, Kuozitou Village was not under the jurisdiction of Yuci, but under the jurisdiction of Shouyang County, a neighboring county of Yuci. Because at that time, Yuci and Shouyang were bounded by the Longmen River that flowed through the front of Hougou Village, the east of the Longmen River was Shouyang, the west of the Longmen River was Yuci, and Kuozitou Village was east of the Longmen River, so it was under the jurisdiction of Shouyang County.

Kuozitou Village and Hougou Village are the same mountain villages, and they are rich in fruits, but the location of the village is flat and wide, and it belongs to the rare highland plain in the mountains, so the planting area of fruit trees is large, and the production and sales volume are far more than Hougou. However, because Kuozitou Village is under the jurisdiction of Shouyang and Hougou Village is under the jurisdiction of Yuci, it is equivalent to the fruit production and sales of Shouyang County far exceeding that of Yuci County.

Yuci Zhixian felt very uncomfortable after learning that the fruit production and sales of Shouyang County far exceeded that of Yuci County, so he wanted to change this situation so that he could overpower Shouyang Zhixian. For this reason, Yuci Zhixian racked his brains for a long time, and finally figured out a way, that is, to try to control the sales of fruits in Kuozitou, so that the fruits produced in Kuozitou were sold in the name of Yuci County fruits. In order to achieve this goal, first of all, it is necessary to let the Yuci people occupy the commercial market of Kuozitou, so Yucizhi County found a butcher who bullies the weak and bullies the market on weekdays, and ordered him to do this.

The butcher accepted the assignment of Yucizhi County, and on the day of the temple fair in Kuozitou Village, he pushed a cart to Kuozitou Village to sell meat. Due to the flat and wide terrain of Kuozitou Village, the scale of the temple fair is relatively large, and there are many people who rush to the temple fair, including villagers from neighboring villages, as well as hawkers doing business from near and far. The butcher thought to himself: he is a meat seller, and if he wants to drive away other traders who are doing business in Kuozitou, he must start by selling meat. He began to find fault with the meat vendors at the temple fair, he was usually overbearing, and he was used to doing nothing, others looked at him and said that people were glaring at him, walking and wiping his clothes and saying that people hit him, first he quarreled with people unrelentingly, and then he picked up his fists and beat people. As a result, the meat vendors at the temple fair were driven away one by one.

However, one of the meat vendors at the temple fair was from Hejiazhuang, a neighboring village of Kuozitou, and Hejiazhuang and Kuozitou Village were next to each other, and the two villages were not even a mile apart. Hejiazhuang people come to Kuozitou to catch the temple fair just like at the door of their own home, whether they are buying or selling things at the venue, most of them are villagers on the ground in their hometowns, how can they watch their own people being bullied by outsiders. So when the Yuci butcher found fault with him, the people around him helped him to fight for reason. Yuci butcher saw that the other party was overwhelmed, and he didn't dare to do it again, but he still refused to give up.

In the end, the dispute between the Yuci butcher and the people of Hejiazhuang alarmed an old Xiucai in Kuozitou Village. Lao Xiucai, surnamed Guo, is highly respected in Kuozitou Village, and often mediates disputes for the village neighbors. Guo Laoxiu came to the scene and listened to the people tell the story of the incident, and he already knew the cause of the incident. But Guo Laoxiu knew that he could not publicly accuse the Yuci butcher of being unreasonable, which would only make the Yuci butcher angry and continue to make trouble. Guo Laoxiucai said to the Yuci butcher with a pleasant face: "I have already understood what happened, this brother, you can tell me first, how do you want to solve today's matter?" As soon as the Yuci butcher heard that he let him express his opinion, he immediately came to his senses, shook his head and said: "My request is very simple, as long as he gets out of the house immediately, and he is not allowed to come to Kuozitou to sell meat in the future!" Guo Laoxiu shook his head and said: "This is not appropriate, right? I'll sell it to you! In the future, I will wrap up the meat for your broad-headed people, and you can eat meat if you want it!" Guo Laoxiucai asked: "It's okay to ask for it?" Can we give it to you when we want to eat it?" Yuci Butcher said: "Of course, you go to Yuci City to inquire, I've always been a man of words!" Guo Laoxiu said: "Then this will be easy to do, and in the future, we will rely on you to eat meat." But there is something I have to explain to you in advance, I want to eat meat every morning, please send me two taels of meat every morning!" "The Yuci butcher was dumbfounded when he heard this, Yuci City is dozens of miles away from Kuozitou, and he came to give Lao Xiucai two taels of meat every morning, and this thing is not cost-effective even if you think about it with your toes! The Yuci butcher stammered and asked, "Do you want to eat every morning?" Guo Lao Xiucai said: "Yes! The old man has lived for such a long time and has no hobbies, he just wants to eat some meat every morning!"

The Yuci butcher held back for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "Then you better find someone else to buy it! Kuozitou is dozens of miles away from Yuci City, how can I send two taels of meat over every morning?" Guo Laoxiu asked rhetorically: "So others can come to my Kuozitou to sell meat?" Yuci Butcher's face turned red, and he muttered vaguely: "Well, let's sell!" After speaking, he pushed his car and ran away. Everyone present couldn't help laughing when they saw the embarrassed appearance of the Yuci butcher.

The Yuci butcher did not complete the errand assigned by Yuci County, and did not dare to see Yuci County after returning to Yuci County, and soon moved out of Yuci with his family, and he did not know where to move.

Later, this matter reached the ears of Shouyang Zhixian, who was very angry that Yuci people actually ran to his territory to make trouble. In order to prevent Yuci Zhixian from sending people to Kuozitou to make trouble again, Shouyang Zhixian named the village road leading from Kuozitou to Yuci "Casualty Bridge", and named a piece of field on the side of the road of "Casualty Bridge" in the west of Kuozitou Village "Baihuping". Because the ancients were superstitious, thinking that what kind of name would happen to them, the road was called "Casualty Bridge", and people who walked on this road would be harmed! And "White Tiger" is a mythical beast in ancient Chinese legends, the most ferocious and most harmful, and taking such a place name still means to hurt passers-by.

Sure enough, because the Yuci people felt that the name of the road to Kuozitou was unlucky, there were fewer people who went to Kuozitou to catch up with the market to do business. This matter later also reached the ears of Yuci Zhixian, who knew that Shouyang Zhixian intended to oppose him, but Kuozitou was under the jurisdiction of Shouyang County, and he was helpless to act within his own jurisdiction.

In the past few years, the governor of Shanxi has been replaced by a teacher from Yucizhi County. Seeing that the opportunity had come, Yuci Zhixian tried his best to appeal to his teacher, the new governor of Shanxi, requesting that Kuozitou Village be placed under the jurisdiction of Yuci County. At first, the governor of Shanxi did not agree, but he could not withstand the repeated requests of Yuci County, and finally assigned Kuozitou Village to Yuci County.

This time, the fruit output of Yuci County finally justifiably surpassed Shouyang County, and Yucizhi County was naturally complacent. Shouyang Zhixian was unhappy, but he didn't dare not listen to this is the boss's decision, so he sent all the evil fire in his belly to the head of the broadhead. Shouyang Zhixian repeated the old trick and named the mountain pass from Kuozitou Village to Shouyang as "Longkou", which means that the people of Kuozitou Village live under the dragon's mouth all day long, and they will be eaten by the dragon sooner or later, so that Yuci County will not get it.

After the news came out, the broad-headed people were in a hurry. Because the people at that time were superstitious and felt that the village was under the dragon's mouth, and the people of this village didn't let the dragon eat it? Everyone came to Guo Laoxiu to give him an idea. Guo Laoxiu watched in front of the dragon's mouth for a long time, and saw that there was a mountain peak next to the dragon's mouth, which was like a pagoda built one level at a time. He told the people of Kuozitou that from now on, this mountain peak will be called "Dragon Capture Tower", which means "Capture the evil dragon". As long as everyone screams like this, they can restrain the man-eating dragon's mouth, and the broad-headed people screamed together when they heard it.

Strange to say, since the mountain peak was called the "Dragon Capture Tower", the village of Kuozitou facing the "Dragon's Mouth" not only did not decay, but became more and more prosperous. This is because it is easy for people to come together in times of crisis. The people of Kuozitou, who live under the threat of "Longkou" all day long, always work together, so the village is becoming more and more prosperous. However, some people explained that there is a "dragon tower" in the east of the village, and "dragon" is homophonic with "green dragon", and there is "white tiger ping" in the west of the village, so that the village will be guarded by a green dragon and a white tiger, so the village will prosper.

However, the Kuozitou people later discovered another strange phenomenon, that is, the Kuozitou people often go out to run errands or do business, and they either fail to do it or lose their capital. So some people explained that this is all because the name of the road where Kuozitou goes out of the village is not good, and to go east to Shouyang to take Longkou, and to go west to Yuji to take the casualty bridge, these two names are not good for people, and how can things go smoothly when Kuozitou people go out from such a road? But this name was given by the county magistrate, and others could not change it, so Kuozitou people had to accept such a fate. This is naturally a superstitious saying of the people in ancient times, and the actual situation should be that Kuozitou Village originally belonged to Shouyang County, and then it was assigned to Yuci County, so that Shouyang people think that they no longer belong to Shouyang, and they no longer take care of them when they encounter problems; This phenomenon could not be changed in a short period of time, and the Kuozitou people had no choice but to comfort themselves and say, who made our village "Kuozitou"! The word "Kuozitou" is a job inside the door, and the Kuozitou people are destined to only beg for a living in the village, and they can't go out.

However, this is all the old yellow calendar. Today's Kuozitou Village is the village with the highest economic development in Dongzhao Township, and has a particularly close relationship with Hougou Village. Many Hougou villagers are married to the daughters-in-law of Kuozitou Village, and some people's mothers-in-law are Kuozitou, and the daughter-in-law is also Kuozitou, and Kuozitou Village has become the village with the most relatives of Hougou villagers.
