Zhu Yuanzhang borrowed land from the rich man to bury his parents, but the rich man didn't give it. How did Zhu Yuanzhang treat the rich man later?
When Zhu Yuanzhang's parents died, there were no tiles on the roof to shelter them from the wind and rain, and there was no room to settle down. There is not even a place three feet square to bury their parents' bones. Zhu Yuanzhang begged Liu De to give a cemetery in the hope of burying his dead parents, but Liu De still refused his request mercilessly.
So, what happened to the remains of Zhu Yuanzhang's parents? How did Zhu Yuanzhang treat Liu De after he became a yellow robe and unified the world?
First, the world is big, but there is no place for Zhujiajian Island.
Zhu Yuanzhang's father, named Zhu, originally lived with his ancestors in Jurong, Jinling, and was a gold digger in the imperial court. But the ancestors of Zhujiajian have never seen gold several times in their lives, let alone found it. On the day when gold is turned over at the end of the year, Zhu Jiazu borrows money from others to buy gold and gives it to the government in exchange for food rations at home.
Later, usury snowballed, and Zhu Jiazu had to flee with his family and wander around. I have been to Jurong County, Xuyi County and zhongmou county successively.
On this wandering road, Zhu Yuanzhang was born, and the children of poor families had no names, so they were named Zhu Chongba after the date of birth.
Second, the foothold clock leaves and becomes a tenant.
In the end, Zhu led his family to Zhongli Xixiang, Haozhou, and worked as a long-term laborer and tenant for the landlord and rich man. Seeing Zhu's honest duty, he rented a few acres of wasteland to him. Zhu finally has a field to farm, and seems to see the hope of life.
Zhu gets up from morning till night and is greedy for the dark, caring for these acres of fields like his own eyes.
However, no matter how hard Zhu tried, the family was still in rags and could not eat. Because Liu De is ruthless and the tax is extremely high, a year's hard work has gone into Liu De's pocket, leaving little. Even if you are lucky enough to have a bumper harvest year, you still have to pay back the usury you owed before, which is still unsustainable.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang 10 years old. In order to help his family, he started herding cattle for Liu De at an early age. On one occasion, some friends were so hungry that at Zhu Yuanzhang's suggestion, they slaughtered and roasted the calf of the landlord's house and buried the cowhide and bones. Later, when things came to light, Zhu Yuanzhang was inevitably beaten by his boss.
Third, in the face of natural disasters, relatives passed away.
After several years of miserable life, Zhu Yuanzhang has grown into a teenager of 17 years old. In the fourth year, a sudden natural disaster swept through zhongmou county, and the crops in the field were eaten up by locusts, accompanied by a plague.
Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and eldest brother were not spared and died one after another. Only the eldest sister-in-law and a few little nephews are left at home. This is undoubtedly a disaster for Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang once described this unforgettable moment in his later tombstone: "Natural disasters prevailed in Russia, and the family was ruined. In the end, the imperial examination was sixty in four, and the imperial examination was fifty in nine. Brother Meng died first, and his family lost. "
In the face of sudden changes, Zhu Yuanzhang had already adopted his second brother in his hometown. The two brothers discussed that Liu De wanted to bury his parents. But Liu De has a heart of stone and no humanity. "Tian Zhude doesn't care about me, he is arrogant, not with the ground, not with neighbors." Let Zhu Yuanzhang kneel in front of him and beg with tears in his face. Liu De refused to live or die.
Later, Liu Dede's brother Liu Jizu couldn't stand it anymore and gave Zhu Yuanzhang a piece of land. The two brothers wept with joy, wrapped their parents in rags and carried them to the cemetery.
Just as they were digging a hole with hoes, it suddenly began to rain cats and dogs, with loud thunder and heavy fog. The two brothers had to put down their work and take shelter from the rain under the tree. When I came back, my parents' bodies were gone. It turned out that the heavy rain just now caused landslides and buried Zhu Yuanzhang's parents, so they had to go home. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang often thought of this matter and was deeply saddened. "There is no coffin in the funeral, and the body is evil. What food can you pour?"
Fourth, return home with clothes, hide evil and promote good.
After Zhu Yuanzhang hastily buried his parents, he threw himself into the rolling wave of anti-Yuan without care, and finally made great achievements and unified the whole country. But he always remembered his dead parents and deeply blamed himself for not burying them properly, so he sprouted the idea of going back to his hometown to worship.
At this time, the clock left the county, but some people were happy and some people were sad. Liu De was quite uneasy and was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would settle accounts with him.
When Zhu Yuanzhang led the people back to Li Zhong, Liu De had to hide in the crowd and spy on him from a distance. Zhu Yuanzhang stopped him intentionally or unintentionally, saying, "What you do is the same, so don't ask. When I was poor, I didn't know that today was the son of heaven. " Liu De got 30 hectares of land on the spot and was exempted from the corvee of 10 year.
When he learned of Liu Jizu's death, Zhu Yuanzhang was deeply saddened and named him Yihuihou, and his descendants inherited it for 300 years until the Ming Dynasty.
