Dong Yong Legend opening hours: all day
Dong Yong Legend attraction introduction:
Dong Yong Legend Legend says that during the Han Dynasty, there was a village in Dongjiazhuang, Boxing County. A farmer named Dong Shang. The couple farmed and weaved, and lived in harmony.
Dong Shang gets a son
Nothing in the world is perfect. The two have been married for more than ten years and have never had a child. The couple is eager to have a baby, so on the first and fifteenth day of every month and during New Year holidays, the wife goes to the temple outside the village to pray for the "Girl of Delivery".
One night when Dong Shang was forty years old, his wife had a dream. A kind-hearted old lady tied a fat boy with a red rope to her home and said to her: "You and your wife are kind-hearted and beg me so devoutly. But you should not have children in your lives. Look." Because of your kindness, I tied up the boy who was guarding Grandma Taishan. This child has suffered a lot in life, and you two watched his son grow up." After that, he handed her the red rope and turned away. The wife was so happy that she held the child tightly in her arms, as if the child would fly away as soon as she let go. When she woke up from her dream, she was still smiling. The wife hurriedly woke her husband up and told him the dream she had just had. Strangely enough, my husband also had the same dream. A few days later, my wife was really happy. Ten months later, my wife gave birth to a fat, white boy.
The couple is more happy than anything else when they have a son in middle age, and others are also happy for their family. On the day when the child is one month old, relatives and friends come to congratulate him. At the banquet, Dong Shang asked the congratulators to name the child. One person who drank a lot of ink was a distant relative of the Dong family. He frowned, closed his eyes and thought for a while, shook his head and said to Dong Shang and the people sitting here: "Dear friends, Brother Dong is very happy to have his precious son in his middle age. In order to make the Dong family prosperous and pass it on from generation to generation, I gave the child the word "Yong", which means "eternal". After saying that, he clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, please tell me!"
The people who congratulated him all clapped their hands and praised him when they heard that this man was knowledgeable, had a good nose and eyes, and had good luck. In this way, Dong Shang named the child "Dong Yong". The Dong family has grown in population and happiness. As a couple guarding a fat and white boy, their life becomes more enjoyable.
Under the care of his parents, Dong Yong grew up day by day. Dong Shang is a farmer, he only knows how to make a living, and his handwriting cannot read half of a pocket. But he had a plan and invited his husband to teach Dong Yong how to read and write, hoping that his son would succeed. Dong Yong is naturally smart, and he can learn the books taught by his teacher once. In less than a year, all the ink in the teacher’s stomach was drained. In this way, Dong Shang had to find another teacher for his son. Dong Yong knew books and etiquette, respected the old and loved the young. People said that the Dong family's ancestral tomb occupies a geomantic treasure. In this life, a good boy like Dong Yong was born. What people say is true. When Dong Yong grew up, he really honored his ancestors and became a well-known filial son.
Dong Yong's Engagement
In Boxing County, a habit has been formed a long time ago: soybean oil sellers do not need to weigh it, but use gourds to measure it. To this day, there are still many small oil houses passed down from ancestors that use gourds to sell oil. Speaking of which, this habit has something to do with Dong Yong's engagement.
More than ten miles south of Dongjiazhuang, there is a large lake called Mada Lake. There is a Zhangjiazhuang by Mata Lake, and there is an old man named Zhang in Zhangjiazhuang. Old man Zhang is in his fifties. His family has several good houses and several acres of fertile land. He can live a small life without worrying about food and clothing. Everything goes well for Mr. Zhang, but there is one thing that makes the old couple unhappy: they have no children, and no one will continue their family life when they grow old.
They only had one daughter in their lives, named Zhang Yuelian. When Zhang Yuelian was eighteen years old, her skin and flesh had become thin and tender, and she looked like a horse treading on a lotus flower with dewdrops hanging in the lake. A handsome person becomes famous, and a fragrant flower attracts bees. Everyone in the villages of Sanli and Wu knew that Old Man Zhang had a beautiful daughter as beautiful as a flower. People with money and land came here to try their luck, but they all came back with a weak setback. Poor young men who had nothing at home did not have the courage to step into the door of Old Man Zhang's house, so they just wandered outside the gate with nothing to do, hoping to have the opportunity to see Zhang Yuelian and feast their eyes. The Zhang family is full of people, with matchmakers coming one after another. This one hasn't left yet, and the other one has been waiting outside the door, making it difficult for the whole family to eat.
It's really puzzling to say that so many good families came to propose marriage, and many good young men came to fawn on her, but Old Man Zhang refused to agree to them one by one.
Don’t keep your daughter when she is old. If you keep her, you will create enemies. You are such an old girl, why don't you find a husband and marry her? What are you doing at home? People have two layers of skin, and they can talk a lot, and they can say anything. Some persuaded Old Man Zhang face to face, while others pointed at his spine behind his back. No matter what outsiders said, Old Man Zhang pretended not to have heard it. Old Man Zhang's wife couldn't hold back her anger. One day, she advised Old Man Zhang: "Her father, there are so many matchmakers, so it's not our concern to choose a good one for our children. But you shouldn't do it with any one." "What's going on in your mind?" Old Man Zhang sighed after a while and said, "You are a woman with long hair and short knowledge. We are old and have no children. As the saying goes: a good girl will provide for us until the end." Not as good as a good son-in-law. The people who are proposing marriage are all because of my child's good looks, and the matchmakers are trying to make good choices. But my daughter will become someone's wife when she gets married. Shouldn't I still recognize me? , I have my own idea. I want to find a kind-hearted son-in-law, so that I can have hope for my future."
If you don't say anything clearly, my wife will listen to what the old man said and won't complain. She just said: "You have to write the score early, so that you can find a good son-in-law who you want." Old man Zhang smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have come up with an idea in the past few days. Let's spend some money and I can guarantee that I found a good son-in-law who I wanted to be with."
The next day, Old Man Zhang bought several loads of oil from the oil house in a neighboring village. His wife was very surprised when she saw it and asked him why he bought so much oil. He just laughed. I saw old man Zhang find a pair of tattered clothes, put them on, took an oil gourd, and sold a load of oil.
Old man Zhang carried a load of oil and walked through the streets, shouting and selling. Someone came to buy oil, and he measured it with a gourd and sold it. His oil gourd holds half a catty at one time, but when someone buys two, it counts as four taels. Seeing that he didn't know how to settle accounts, people came to buy his oil and left without daring to look back, for fear that he would come to ask for money after settling accounts. Old man Zhang worked hard from dawn to dusk and sold oil for more than ten days. Not only did he suffer hardships, but he also lost a lot of money. My wife didn’t know why he started doing business, or whether he was making money or losing money. When he asked him, he said nothing. My wife was frightened and thought he was suffering from some evil spirit, so he invited the goddess to perform a dance to cure his evil illness. Old Man Zhang rolled his eyes in anger. He couldn't say anything else, but the smile on his face was gone. He kept silent all day long, keeping his head down and doing the losing business.
On this day, Old Man Zhang came to Dongjiazhuang carrying an oil burden. Dong Yong's mother heard someone selling oil, but she happened to have no oil at home, but she couldn't get away from cooking, so she asked Dong Yong to take the oil jar to buy oil. Dong Yong took the oil jar and came to the street. Old man Zhang took the oil jar without raising his head and oiled Dong Yong according to the old selling method. Dong Yong took the oil jar, calculated the sum, and said to the old man: "Old man, you made a mistake. Your gourd weighs half a catty at one stroke, and it should be one catty with two strokes. But you said it was four taels at two strokes. How many days can you do this business without being broke? "
Old man Zhang was stunned when he heard this. Although he had been looking for such kind-hearted people these days, he didn't believe it now that he had actually found one. . He looked at Dong Yong carefully from head to toe for a while and said with a smile: "You are such a child, so stupid. I will give you more fuel and ask for less money. Wouldn't you like it?" Dong Yong also smiled at Old Man Zhang. Laughing, he said seriously: "Old man, as the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. You can't earn a pot of wine a day from your small business, you can't settle accounts, and you can't support it no matter how much money you have at home." "Pay it forward!"
After Dong Yong finished speaking, Old Man Zhang smiled. He couldn't help feeling happy, so he pulled Dong Yong and asked, "Whose child are you from? Can you bring me to meet your parents?" Dong Yong nodded in agreement and took Old Man Zhang to his home. After meeting Dong Yong's parents, Zhang Laohan said with a smile: "You are so lucky. Can you give me half of this good and sensible boy?" Dong Yong's father said: "Brother, I'm sorry. It's just me." For this child, you asked for half, how can I give it to you?"
Old man Zhang said calmly: "As the saying goes, a son-in-law has half a child.
When we form a family of sons and daughters, didn’t you give me half of your son? "
Dong Yong's father heard that there was something wrong in Old Man Zhang's words, so he said: "Thank you for your wrong love, please clarify your words!" "Old man Zhang saw that Dong Yong's family were all real people, so he sat down and talked about his daughter's marriage. After finishing speaking, he sighed and said, "In order to find a good son-in-law that I want, I have been selling for several days. Oil, I lost a lot of money. Until today, I finally found it. My compensation is not unjust. If my brother thinks highly of me, we will become sons and daughters. "
Dong Yong's father saw that Old Man Zhang was also a real person and had a good temper. He also heard that what Old Man Zhang said was true, so he said, "If I don't dislike it, I will go up to you." . Excuse me, how much is your daughter-in-law worth this year? "The old man reported his daughter's age. Dong Yong's father said: My child is also 18 and has the same fate as your daughter. People of the same fate are not suitable for marriage. Please think twice. Old man Zhang became anxious when he heard this and blushed. He said with a thick neck: "People of the same fate, happy family, this is a very auspicious marriage. Besides, the child is not young anymore. Once we get married, let the child pass by on an auspicious day, and we, as old people, will be relieved of our worries! "
When Dong Yong's father heard what Old Man Zhang said, he was unwilling and embarrassed to say no. The two sat down to talk. The more they talked, the more they talked, and the closer they got. In the end, the two of them agreed on the spot. The marriage was settled. Dong Yong's father made a lifelong decision for his child. He was very happy and asked Dong Yong's mother to cook wine and cook. The two of them wanted to have a good drink.
Old man Zhang didn't expect to find such a good husband for his daughter, so he felt very happy and started drinking happily. When the sun turned west, old man Zhang got up and went home. Before leaving, he discussed with Dong Yong's father to wait for winter. Organize a happy event for the child.
Dong Yong had two wives in his life. Zhang Yuelian was his first wife. She died before they got married and was buried in the Dong family cemetery.
Dong Yong begged for food
Dong Yong has been a filial child since he was eight years old. During a bad year, the crops were not harvested and every household suffered from hunger. My mother fell ill again at this time. How can the family eat? Dong Yong's father is a big man and cannot go out to beg for food. Dong Yong goes to beg for food with a begging basket. p>
Dong Yong has been studying since he was a child, and he has lived a life where he has no worries about food and clothing. He suddenly comes to beg for food with a basket, but it is difficult to ask for food. But it is impossible not to go, so the family waits for him to ask for some dry food. He carried the basket from one village to another, from morning to noon, without getting a morsel of dry food. It was almost dark. Dong Yong looked at the empty basket and his stomach growled with hunger. His mother, who was sick, and his father, who was starving at home, must have hoped that he would come home soon, hoping that he would get some dry food back. How could he go home now that he didn't have any dry food? The more he thought about it, the sadder he became, and he sat alone on the roadside crying.
Dong Yong cried here, which attracted some people. People asked him why he was crying, and he cried even more. Later, he asked for food when his mother was sick and his father was hungry. After that, Dong Yong came to a village to beg for food. Not far away, he met an old man selling tofu. Dong Yong stood and looked straight at the white tofu on the tofu burden. His nose felt sour and tears flowed from his eyes.
The old man selling tofu saw it and thought he was crying because of the tofu. The old man felt soft and sighed. He cut off a small piece of tofu from the edge with a knife and brought it to his eyes. He said: "My child, don't cry. I also have a small business. If you have a small piece of your business, go and beg for food! "
Dong Yong happily took the tofu, gave the old man a deep gift, and said: "Thank you, old man. If I can make money when I grow up, I will definitely try to repay my great kindness." ! "After that, he carefully placed the small piece of tofu in the basket.
The old man selling tofu was stunned. He didn't expect that a begging child knew so much etiquette and didn't know how to do it. I thought he could speak some adult words.
The old man looked Dong Yong up and down, took his hand and asked: "Whose child are you from? I gave you a small piece of tofu because you were greedy, why didn't you eat it? ? Are you so grateful to me? "
When Dong Yong asked the old man, he had to tell him why he asked for food. He saw that the old man was also a kind-hearted person, so he continued: "I am not old enough to rely on my strength to be filial to my parents. Today I saw that the tofu sold by the old man was so tender, and I couldn't help but want to beg my sick mother. My mother is sick, I'm weak, but I haven't eaten for a long time. I don't have any money, so I can't buy food for my mother. I shed tears unconsciously after seeing my old man's tofu, but I couldn't express my gratitude to him. I can be filial to my mother, this is your great kindness!"
The old man selling tofu had red eyes after listening to Dong Yong's words. He grabbed the basket from Dong Yong's hand, cut off a large piece of tofu and put it into the basket. He said to Dong Yong: "Son, I have been selling tofu for most of my life, and I have never met anyone who said I want to buy tofu." Mom and Dad eat it. You are still a child and have no money, but you are thinking about your parents. Your filial piety is rare! It is the virtue I have accumulated in my previous life that your parents have a child like you. "Take it back and be filial to your mother!" After the old man finished speaking, Dong Yong had already shouldered the burden and left with tears in his eyes before he could thank him again.
Dong Yong was stunned, gave a few big gifts to the old man’s back, picked up the basket and hurried home.
After arriving home, Dong Yong took out the tofu and asked his father to make a pot of stew for his sick mother. She had a great appetite and had a good meal. She ate the tofu her son asked for and shed tears in her eyes. Dong Yong watched his mother eating and smiled.
