Once upon a time, a frail old man and his three sons lived in a village.

When he was dying, the old man called his three sons to him and said to them, "My dear child, I leave it to you, but an inheritance will not make you rich." So I leave you three pieces of advice, which are more precious than money and wealth. Remember these words of counsel and you will be rich for the rest of your life.

Here's my advice, and you should keep it in mind. First: Don't bend down to anyone first, only let others bend down to you. Second: Eat any food with honey. Third: sleep on a down mattress forever. ”

After saying that, the old man passed away. But the sons forgot all of their father's advice and lived a life of bohemianism—idleness, eating, drinking, and doing everything. squandered his father's money in the first year; The following year, all the livestock was sold; In the third year, all the utensils in the house were sold. They didn't eat or drink.

The eldest brother said, "In addition to the inheritance, didn't my father leave us three pieces of advice? He said that by relying on these three pieces of counsel, we can live abundantly. ”

The little brother smiled and said, "I remember these advices, but what is the use? Father said, 'First of all, don't bend down to anyone, but let others bow down to you.' To do that, you need to be rich. But in the surrounding area, there is no poorer person than us now.

He also said: 'Eat anything with honey.' 'Listen, and honey!' We can't even eat rye bread now, so what honey are we talking about!

And he said, 'Sleep on a mattress of down forever.' 'Of course it's good to sleep on a down mattress!' But our house was empty, and there wasn't even a piece of broken felt left. ’”

The eldest brother thought for a long time, and then said, "Younger brother, we didn't understand the meaning of our father's teachings at that time. It turned out that his words were full of wisdom. What he meant was that we should go down to work before anyone else at dawn, and that they would be the first to greet us when they passed by us when they came down to work. When we arrived home tired and hungry after a long day's work, a piece of rye cake was sweeter than honey. In this case, you will feel comfortable and comfortable lying on any mattress, so it is very sweet as sleeping on a down mattress. ”

At dawn the next day, the three brothers went down to the ground, and they arrived before anyone else. Those who came late greeted them first, wishing them a good day and a good job.

The three brothers worked all day, and they didn't even straighten their waists. When I came home in the evening, I ate rye cakes with tea, and I felt that it was sweeter than eating honey. After they had eaten and drunk, they fell asleep on the ground as if they were sleeping on a feather mattress.

They did this every day, and after the autumn they had a good harvest, and they became rich again, and the neighbors looked at them with respect.

Since then, they have kept in mind their father's three pieces of advice and lived a prosperous life.

On the bank of the Jiulong River in the southwest of Zhangzhou City, a round mountain stands high. There are 12 sides of this round mountain from the front and back, and the scenery is different. As the saying goes: "There are twelve sides of the round mountain, and there are treasures on all sides." "Here is just the northeast foothills of Maruyama, there is a sloping land, the woods are lush, surrounded into the shape of a pipa, the name of the place is Biwazaka. A stream of clear spring water gushes out of the sakagami and nourishes the countryside at the foot of the mountain, and this is the famous production area of middle-aged daffodils. However, do you know where daffodils come from? It's kind of amazing to say.

Legend has it that during the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a man named Zhang Guanghui, who was upright and upright, and was a small official in Ji County, Henan. In his career, he saw through the darkness and corruption of officialdom, so he resigned and returned to his hometown. His hometown is under the Pipa Ban of Yuanshan in Nanxiang, Zhangzhou Prefecture. On this day, he took a boat through the vast Dongting Lake,

Leaning on the side of the boat leisurely, admiring the lake and mountains, looking at the blue and blue clear sky, the green lake, and the green distant mountains, I can't help but feel relaxed and happy, forget the humiliation, and unconsciously immerse myself in the quiet dream. In this trance, he saw a beautiful fairy, dressed in a golden feather coat and white jade skirt and socks, standing on the bow of a ship carved from ivory, with a green silk sail behind his back, flying in the wind and waves. He stood up in amazement, rubbed his eyes, and stared intently at the spectacle. Suddenly the fairy and the fairy boat are gone, only to see the silver sparkling lake, floating a flower, between the green leaves, shoot out an arrow flower stem, white umbel-shaped inflorescence, more than a dozen stamens are still in bud, only at the top of the open a small white flower, snow-white crystal petals, spelled into a six-edged jade plate, the heart of the flower holds up a golden wine glass, curling Nana, slim and elegant, very lovely.

Zhang Guanghui cherished this unknown flower very much, so he reached out and tried to pick it up from the water. Who knew that this fairy flower was very well-behaved, and she left the side of the boat leisurely and floated to the far middle of the lake. Zhang Guanghui was very annoyed in his heart, and looked at the lake melancholy. At this time, this playful fairy flower quietly approached the side of the ship, but always kept a distance from each other, and swam with the boat without leaving it. Zhang Guanghui wanted to pick her up several times, but she couldn't get it, she was very anxious, but she was helpless. Slowly his mood calmed down, and he thought to himself: Everything has its own ambitions, since she is a fairy on the water, you can't treat her with a blaspheming attitude, one

Be sure to be polite and polite! So he solemnly shook his clothes and flicked his crown, respectfully lit three sticks of incense, and prayed silently to the water fairy:

Lingbo fairy national color fragrance,

Where do you want to swim on the lake?

Will you go with me to the south?

Biwa Sakashita is a fairy town!

Once upon a time, there was a young man named Huang He, who looked like a talent, rode a fierce horse, drew a hard bow, and walked through Yang in a hundred steps.

Every morning, Huang He rode out to hunt. Each time he passed by the garden outside the house.

When he returned from hunting that day, he passed through the garden again, and saw a girl of eighteen or nineteen on the wall looking at him with a smile. The girl threw down one of her bracelets and hid behind the wall.

Huang He jumped off his horse and picked up the bracelet, thinking that he had just met a fairy.

From then on, every time he passed through that garden, he had to look up. However, the girl was never seen on the wall except for the flower branches.

One day half a month later, the Yellow River came back late from hunting. When I got to the garden, suddenly a man flashed out of the road. Huang He was very happy when he saw that it was that girl. The girl said that she had come to meet her father behind his back. The two talked for a long time before reluctantly saying goodbye.

The next day it was time for the appointment, but the girl didn't come. For more than ten days, Huang He never saw the girl again. When I inquired, it turned out that the outsider knew about it and locked up his daughter. When Huang He heard this, he swore: "Even if the world is turned upside down, I will save the girl." "The outsider, fearing that he would offend the Yellow River, had a problem arise by having people set up a shelf in front of the door, hang a copper coin on it, and put up notices everywhere: Whoever can shoot an arrow into the eye of the copper coin from a hundred paces away will marry his daughter to him. When the news came out, people came. But no one was able to shoot the arrow into the eye of the money.

The Yellow River walked out, pulled his bow and shot arrows, not left nor right, and shot in the eyes of copper coins. He also demanded that the second arrow of the Yellow River must be pushed out of the previous arrow, and the Yellow River did it. If there is a problem outside the staff, not only shoot down the copper coins from the Yellow River a hundred paces away, but also catch the money, and not allow the copper coins to land.

At this time, even those who watched the excitement knew that the staff was deliberately cheating. The Yellow River was furious, and an arrow flew out of the staff.

The young man outside the staff had practiced martial arts, and he dodged the arrow for the first time, and called his subordinates to arrest the Yellow River because he was afraid that the staff would arrest him, and the Yellow River escaped. He was determined to practice martial arts in the deep mountains and old forests, and then go to save the girl.

After a year, Huang He practiced his swordsmanship and set out to save the girl.

At noon, I was hungry and shot a big bird with an arrow. The big bird told Huang He that the staff had forced his daughter to marry the rich man, and the girl was so angry that she jumped off the building.

Before jumping, she shouted, "Yellow River! Yellow River! The Yellow River, ah......" When the Yellow River heard this, his heart was like a mountain cracking, and he sat on the ground with a "poof", and tears poured out like spring water.

The big bird was so frightened that it flew to the sky, and when it looked down, the tears of the Yellow River flowed into the river, and the ocean flowed eastward, and the Yellow River became the "Yellow River"! The water of the Yellow River is always rolling in the sky.

People said that it was Huang He's resentment and wanted to get close to the village to save the girl.
