One Hundred and Ninety-One Fox Friend

In the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, there was a scholar named Xie Ming Kai from Jianhu Town, Jishui, Jiangxi Province. He was almost a stubborn person and made a living by running schools and teaching. He was a private school teacher. He was kind and righteous, liked to make friends, and he would pay the bills first with his friends and be generous. In recent years, his family had all had food all over the land and property, and he was poor and unable to make ends meet. His wife and children had to live in the school and try to survive.

Xie Kai's wife Gao was very virtuous. When the year came, Gao saw that his neighbors were excited to buy New Year's goods. However, the family had no money to do it, so he took out the dowry gold earrings and wanted to make the silver to get the New Year's goods. Xie Kai wore a bag, carried gold earrings to the county town, and went to the pawn shop to take the gold earrings as it. When he left the pawn shop, he suddenly heard someone calling, "Mr. Xie, it's been a long time since he was gone, so he asked for fun. Now he was drunk and stopped asking for pleasure." He looked up and saw that the caller was wearing a white robe, a scarf, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a magnificent bones, and a year-old literati. However, he had never known each other, and his thoughts: Although I didn't know him, this person must know me, and I can't refuse him.

. Then the young man entered the hotel, called the shop owner, ordered dishes and warm wine, and drank it to him. The young man claimed that his surname was Hu Lan, and he was from Hu Ji Village outside the South Gate. He had a large appetite and drank eight pots of wine, and continued to eat eight bowls of rice. The wind blew the clouds and the plate was clean. After the wine was full, Xie Kai took the initiative to pay the bill first, but he forgot the difficulties at home. When he left the shop, he touched his pockets and couldn't help but sigh in secret. Hu Lan saw that he was embarrassed and said to him, "I know all your recent situation. Don't be sad. You will come to my house tomorrow and I will help you celebrate the New Year. My family lives in Hu Ji Village outside the South Gate. It is the first household in the village at the beginning of the village. You only need to knock on the door three times, and I will open the door to greet him." After saying that, he said goodbye and left.

Xie Kai put on his bag and returned empty-handedly. Seeing that he was returning in a daze, his wife asked him why and explained it in detail. Gao was angry that his ignorance was useless, so he had no choice but to wait to arrive in Huji Village tomorrow and determine it according to the situation.

The next day, Xie Kai still put his bags on his back to the county town, left the south gate, and went straight to Huji Village. After walking for a few miles, he did not see the village. He saw a boy riding a cow and flute, so he went forward to ask for directions. The boy asked, "Can you go to Huji Village to visit Hulan?" He pointed his head and said, "That's right." The boy came down to the cow and bowed to him, "I am here to welcome him by the order of Master Hu, and ask him to take the cow to go there."

Thank you for riding a cow. The boy walked with a cow. The cow walked as fast as a fast horse, and the boy walked as fast as a flying step. After a while, he arrived at a mountain and saw a corner of the dead leaves in the jungle halfway up the mountain. The boy pointed and said, "This is Hu Ji."

The village is the residence of my lord.”

Orezhi had a blue brick and white walled house. Xie Kai raised his eyes to see that there were only a few families in this village. This house was the first household in the head of the village. Seeing the towering gate tower and the gate was closed. The cow below came forward and knocked on the door, and only knocked three times. He heard someone in the door responding. The person who opened the door was a servant. He saw him and the boy standing outside the door and shouted to the courtyard: "Mr. Xie is here!" Hu Lan heard it and hurried out to greet him.

Xie Kai was welcomed into the yard. He saw that the house in the yard was tall, with carved beams and painted pillars, and the doors and windows were clean. When he walked into the living room, he saw the tables and chairs in the living room, which were ancient and elegant. The guest and host sat down and greeted him for a few words. Hu Lan said, "I'm asking you to come here and I'll have a banquet to celebrate." He then ordered the servants to hold a banquet to welcome guests. Soon, the banquet table was filled with delicacies and delicious food, and Xie Kai had never seen it in his life.

When the guests and hosts came to the table, Xie Kai had already drooled and gave him a little, raised his chopsticks and ate with him, and drank with a cup. When the banquet was over, Hu Lan gave him ten taels of silver and told him: "The year is coming, sir, please use it freely and buy enough New Year's goods to celebrate. If you have any difficulties in the future, please come and ask for it again." He took the silver and said with a look of shame.

Xie Kai went to the county market, bought New Year's goods, hired a car to take it back, and he and his wife were happy for the New Year. However, Gao suspected it, and thought: He and Hu Lan had no close friends on weekdays, and only met by chance, how could they act so generously?

After the spring and summer solstice, Xie Kai and his friends were having food in the teahouse, but they still paid first. Hu Lan gave him a silver speed chime. There was no firewood and rice at home, so he wanted to cut off the cooking. He had no choice but to go to Huji Village again. Hu Lan did not angry at him, but still had a feast for a banquet. When he was about to leave, he gave him another ten taels of silver. He was grateful and wanted to invite Hu Lan to his house as a guest. Hu Lan happily responded.

When the two arrived at Jianhu Town, Hu Lan saw Xie Kai's snail house, and the ropes and tiles were in the house, and the stove was penniless. He wanted to sell Xie Kai out of the land and property to redeem it. He ordered Xie Kai to buy fish and meat, and sell wine to hold a banquet. Xie Kai asked why, and he said, "You are going to buy your land and property, and you will bring a contract. You will also invite all your drinkers. I have your own arrangements. Don't delay it, and do it quickly." Xie Kai followed his words and deeds.

During the banquet, Hu Lan said to everyone, "You can tell that Mr. Xie often paid the bills first after making friends in the tavern and restaurant. In order to persevere, he sold his land and sold his land for a long time, and lost all his money, but no one helped him. Now I ask you to go to the banquet. I will redeem the land and property for Xie Kai, and I will pay the money for it." After saying that, he brought out a hundred taels of silver

Want to redeem it.

Based on the amount, Hu Lan redeems the contract and handed over to Xie Kai to save it. After the banquet, Hu Lan wanted to say goodbye, but before leaving, Xie Kai thanked her thousands of people, and said, "I really can't repay you with this kindness and virtue. If you use your inferior brother in the future, even if you say it, I will go to Tang Taohuo and die!" Hu Lan said, "I will be in trouble, and only a kind brother can save my life." Xie Kai swore, "If my benefactor is in trouble, how can I stand by and watch? I will definitely save you." Hu Lan said, "However, remember, on the beginning of autumn this year, please build a seven-meter-high platform in front of the door, set a table and chair on the platform, and ask your wife to hold an umbrella and sit on the chair. At noon this day, there will be dark clouds, thunder and lightning in the sky. Your wife must not be afraid of it. I have a way to get rid of it. Remember!" Xie Kai responded to it, and Hu Lan said goodbye.

On the day of the beginning of autumn, Xie Kai finished building a seven-meter-high platform in front of the door, and the table and chairs were placed on the platform. At this time, his wife was already pregnant with Liujia. However, in order to save the benefactor, Gao climbed up the platform and sat on the top of the platform. Hu Lan arrived as scheduled and entered the door and shouted, "It's been a force!" He entered Xie Kai's bedroom and asked Xie Kai, "The thunderstorm will come soon. No matter how rapid the thunderstorm is, you must not wake me up, remember." After a while, the sky suddenly changed, and the dark clouds rolled.

Sitting on the chair with an umbrella, instantly, heavy rain poured, lightning and thunder roared. Suddenly, a fox was hiding under the seat, and lying curled. After about half an hour, the thunder flashed and the sky cleared, and the red sun shone brightly. Gao Shi looked down and looked down, and the fox was no longer visible. He saw Hu Lan walk out of the bedroom and laughed and said, "I have passed the great trouble, and now I am safe." Xie Kai was also happy to repay Hu Lan's kindness, so he held a banquet to suppress Hu Lan's shock, and was glad that he was safe from this disaster.

After the banquet, Hu Lan said calmly, "I have not hidden it yet. I am a fox fairy, but because I violated the rules of heaven, Lei Gong wants to destroy me. I seek help everywhere and met your wife at Jishui Jianhu. I saw that your wife was pregnant and was pregnant with a top scholar. Only the top scholar's mother could save me in this disaster. I intend to make friends with you, and when you are in a dilemma, I will help you. Now that you are equal, I want to leave, I hope you and your wife will take care of you!" After saying that, he said goodbye and left. Xie Kai and his wife hurriedly stood up to stay, but they disappeared in an instant.
