An An sent rice (ecstasy, there is really this story, Du Niang has arrived)

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xiaoquan belonged to Guanghan County, with thousands of hectares of fertile land and simple folk customs. There is a family surnamed Jiang, his father Jiang Wenjun, his mother's surname is Chen, and there is a smart and lively son in the family - Jiang Shi. Jiang Shipin is a good person, an upright person, and won the appreciation of the county celebrity Pang Sheng, who gave him the female masterpiece Pang Sanchun Xu and recommended it to the court. Soon, the emperor issued an edict appointing Jiang Shi as the county commander of Jiangyang (now Luzhou).

After Jiang Shi took office, he loved the people like a son and was honest and humble for his government. A few years later, when his father died of illness, Jiang Shi and his wife served their mother more diligently and considerately. Later, Pang Sanchun gave birth to a boy, and Jiang Shi named him Jiang Shiquan, nicknamed An An.

Jiang's mother's eyes are sick, and they rot when they see the wind. One night, Jiang's mother dreamed of a fairy and told him that the water of Xiaoquan Linjiang had the effect of clearing eyes and curing diseases, and could be cured. Jiang's mother woke up and told Jiang Shi everything in her dream. Jiang Shi is a filial son, and in order to cure his mother's eye disease, he immediately hung up the seal and left.

After An An grew up, due to the family's financial constraints, the conflict between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was sharp, and the relationship was not harmonious, she forced Jiang Shi to take a leave of absence and drive Pang Sanchun out of the house.

When An An came home from school and learned that her mother had been suspended, she cried bitterly and thought about it. The neighbor told his mother that he had moved to Baiyi'an. An An wanted to see her mother, but felt that her mother was alone and had a hard life, so she decided to send rice to her mother so that she could have a full meal. An An had to bring rice to the teacher's house for lunch every day, and on the way to school, passing by the Land Temple, An An grabbed a handful of rice, put it in his pocket, kowtowed, and hid behind the land grandfather. It's strange to say, An An's rice, birds don't peck it, mice don't eat it, as if he was moved by An An's filial piety.

A few months later, An An saw that he had saved a lot of rice, so he secretly went to Baiyi Nunnery to see his mother. When the mother and son saw each other, they were surprised and delighted, and they burst into tears. An An took out the rice and made her mother happy. But my mother's face was heavy and she said, "An An, people in our family have never stolen other people's things. If a poor person is poor and ambitious, I would rather starve to death than eat other people's rice. An An saw her mother's sad face, and she didn't know what to say. The owner of the nunnery came over, took out the rice brought by An An, put it on the palm of his hand, twisted it and took a closer look, and said to An An's mother: "Look at this rice, the color is different, there are Chen and Xin, it may not be stolen, don't wronged the child." ”

Pang Sanchun asked Anmi where she was from. An An told her mother everything from beginning to end. When my mother heard this, she turned her sadness into joy, and she was happy to have such a filial and sensible child. She stroked An An's emaciated face, her heart was sour and excited, and the mother and son hugged each other and cried. This good story is known as "An An Sends Rice".

Later, the court of successive dynasties built Jiang Xiao's temple in Xiaoquan to educate the descendants.
