Shen Wansan (Biography)
The sky is slightly rainy, and the swallows are flying.
This person's name is Yan Shuangfei, and he is now under the willow tree.
Under the willow tree is a famous tavern in Yingtianfu, and the best wine to drink is osmanthus brewing, Yan Shuangfei likes this wine, so he often comes.
He likes to sit in front of the window on the second floor, look at the bustling long street, listen to the cries of the pawn peddlers, and then take a sip of osmanthus brew.
Today's rain is particularly prominent, and Yan Shuangfei saw a pair of swallows on the tree snuggling up to each other. He also saw a thin little beggar, hiding under the eaves opposite, his body trembling slightly, Yan Shuangfei had a hard life, so he knew that this little beggar was shivering because of the cold.
Yan Shuangfei suddenly wanted to ask him to come up and have a drink together, so he asked the shopkeeper to bring the little beggar up.
"You sit, you're welcome. "Yan Shuangfei said.
"I never knew what politeness was. The little beggar sat down, and without waiting for Yan Shuangfei to open a wine for him, he opened a jar himself and drank it in a big gulp. Yan Shuangfei shook his head and smiledβhe was really welcome.
Yan Shuangfei then found that the little beggar was too good to drink, he drank one jar, and slapped another jar, and in a moment this was already two jars, but Yan Shuangfei did not find that the little beggar was drunk.
After the little beggar drank the second jar, he said, "You like to drink very much?"
Yan Shuangfei nodded.
The little beggar said, "You are rich?"
Yan Shuangfei shook his head and asked again, "Why do you ask like that?"
The little beggar said: "Cheap goods are never sold under the willow tree, and osmanthus stuffed is surprisingly expensive." β
Yan Shuangfei said: "I like to drink good wine. β
The little beggar said, "Me too." β
Yan Shuangfei said: "But you can't afford to drink." β
The little beggar said, "I used to be able to, but then I drank myself too much because I liked to drink too much." β
Yan Shuangfei smiled bitterly.
The little beggar said: "I haven't drunk such a good wine in five or six years, and I'm very lucky today." β
Yan Shuangfei said: "Good luck." β
The little beggar said, "You are also lucky to have met me." β
Yan Shuangfei said, "Oh?"
The little beggar said: "I have always been kind-hearted, if someone likes me, I will like him, if you like me, I will help you." β
Yan Shuangfei wanted to laugh a little, but the next scene made him believe that the little beggar was not talking nonsense.
The little beggar took out a pendant from his bosom, the pendant was a small basin in the shape of a coin, and the little beggar introduced: "This is a cornucopia, I got it from a rich man, he has a very good business, according to himself, he is very rich, because of this thing." β
Yan Shuangfei said: "How did you get it?"
The little beggar suddenly felt a little sad: "I am the rich man." β
Yan Shuangfei's eyes were about to fall out in surprise.
The little beggar said: "This cornucopia is not a pure mascot, it can bring you glory and wealth, it can bring status, it will also make you sink into drunkenness, lose yourself, when you gradually lose yourself, you will lose everything." β
Yan Shuangfei asked, "Including the wealth and status that you have gained?"
The little beggar was even more sad: "Yes." β
Yan Shuangfei's hands trembled suddenlyβit was terrible to get it and lose it, but it was better than never getting it.
Yan Shuangfei's eyes had a strange light: "What about after the loss?"
The little beggar said, "You will be miserable." β
Yan Shuangfei said: "I know, I mean, is there a way to have it again after losing it?"
The little beggar said, "Yes." β
Yan Shuangfei's eyes brightened: "What way?"
The little beggar said: "Give the cornucopia to the destined person, but this destined person must be dedicated to kindness, willing to give, a year later, the destined person will return the cornucopia to me, and I will make a comeback." β
Yan Shuangfei said in his heart, who will give it to you.
The little beggar said, "I believe in you, you are a good person." β
Yan Shuangfei's heart beat again: "I have always liked to do good deeds. β
The little beggar said, "You can see it, otherwise you will pity me as a beggar." β
Yan Shuangfei's heart beat wildly: "Yes, yes, yes." β
The little beggar sent the cornucopia to Yan Shuangfei's hands: "I believe in you. β
Yan Shuangfei's heart was overjoyed: "I also believe what you said." β
The little beggar said, "In a year, you must give it back to me." β
Yan Shuangfei was ecstatic: "Definitely." β
The next day, under the willow tree was bought by a mysterious rich man for a large sum of money, renamed the Green Sparrow Boat, and increased the gambling business.
The business of Qingque Fang is surprisingly good, and there are always people who know that drunken dreams and gambling are empty, but they still come to give money constantly.
Yan Shuangfei still likes to lean on the second floor, or likes to look at the lively crowd, and his heart is happy.
On this day he saw a familiar figure, a little beggar. He became unpleasant. So he hid and had the little beggar blown out.
Yan Shuangfei later asked the person who blew away the little beggar: "Did the little beggar say anything?" The person who blew away the little beggar replied: "He said a very strange thing, he said that what he owes must always be repaid, and if he doesn't pay it back, it will be full of blood." β
Yan Shuangfei seemed to be able to understand, but he didn't believe it, because he felt that the little beggar was scaring himself, after all, Yan Shuangfei was so rich now, who would dare to touch him.
