In ancient times, there was a family named Yang in Dongming, and the old people of the previous generation were gone. Only the two brothers are alive, and the boss farms and does some small business. The second is a scholar, and the elder brother and sister-in-law provide for the second brother to go to school. After a long time, the eldest daughter-in-law shouted at the boss, "Let's work hard to make money. The second child is weird. He has to eat and drink, and he has to pay tuition. If this is not the case, we have to let the second child go out to earn money. " Big brother listens to his daughter-in-law, but second brother has no choice but to drop out of school. One day, the boss took one hundred and twenty pieces of silver and said to the second child, "Second child, I will give you one hundred and twenty pieces of silver. Go out and do some business. " The second child is a scholar, how to do business? Go south when you go out. I don't know how long it took. I saw a river blocking my way. Not far from the river, there is a Taoist temple. A closer look reveals Zhuangzi's view. It's getting dark, so I have to spend the night here. There is a Taoist priest in Zhuangzi Guanli. When he saw him coming from a distance, he was like a scholar. I didn't know it was driven out by my elder sister-in-law until I asked. He went out to do business for the first time and ran for a day. He didn't even eat, so he cooked quickly. After dinner, the second child saw that Zhuangzi's viewpoint was shabby, and said, "This Taoist viewpoint is too shabby. I will repair this one hundred and twenty pieces of silver for you. "

Last winter and spring came, and the year passed quickly. Zhuangzi's point of view has also been fixed, and it's time to go home. The second child remembered that my brother and sister-in-law gave him one hundred and twenty pieces of silver to do business, and now he has taken the Zhuangzi view. How will he explain to my brother's sister-in-law when he comes home? Thought of here, the second child began to cry sadly. When the Taoist saw it, he said to him, "If you go back, your brother and sister-in-law will be separated from you. When you are separated, you don't want anything, just two acres of saline-alkali land in the northwest of your village and a broken cotton-padded jacket that no one at home wears. " Besides, when you leave Zhuangzi and turn east, there is a girl waiting for you in Zhuangdongtou. Don't think she is ugly, just marry her as a daughter-in-law. "The second child has no choice but to do so.

In this way, the second child led his daughter-in-law home. Seeing him like this, elder brother and sister-in-law not only didn't make any money, but also brought a daughter-in-law back and stared at her penis. My sister-in-law agreed to have a second child separately, so she invited my uncle. The second child said, "I don't want the property at home, just give me two acres of saline-alkali land in the northwest of our village, and then give me the broken cotton-padded jacket that no one in our family wears." My uncle felt sorry for the second child, so he advised him to have more, but the second child still didn't want it. Sister-in-law muttered, "It's better not to be good, so let's split it." The second daughter-in-law is very virtuous and didn't say anything. The next morning, I didn't eat anything. The second child took his daughter-in-law and left in a broken cotton-padded jacket. In the field of saline-alkali land, I set up a grass temple and lived with my wife. In the evening, the second child and his daughter-in-law sat together on the broken cotton-padded jacket. Soon, the couple slept like a soft big bed in the house. At dawn the next day, the old couple walked out of the grass temple and saw a thick layer of white saline-alkali on the two acres of land. In ancient times, salt was a tight item, and the couple were so happy to see it. From then on, Xiao Er and his wife started the business of cooking alkali and selling salt. The second daughter-in-law scraped alkali and boiled salt day and night, and Xiao Er went out to sell salt. Two years later, they built a new house, bought land, hired long-term and short-term workers, and got whatever they wanted. A few years later, they had another child, who ate fat for nothing and lived happily. At this time, the second child realized that Zhuangzi's Taoist priest was Zhuangzi Daxian, and he got help from the immortals. But it is either drought or waterlogging around, and the people are short of food and clothing, so the second child releases food to help the poor.

One day, his brother and sister-in-law led the family and came to him to queue up for food. The second child said, "How do eldest brother and sister-in-law get along? The land property belongs to you, but it is so poor. " My sister-in-law bowed her head in shame. Sister-in-law said, "Stop it. His second uncle blames me for my bad heart. This is called: "Good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil. It's true. "

As the saying goes, there are three treasures at home: ugly daughter-in-law, thin land and broken cotton-padded jacket.
