In Hefei, respect for sister-in-law is more important than respect for sister-in-law. If I neglect my sister, you can forgive me. If you neglect your sister-in-law, it will stir up a hornet's nest. You can't stop there. People often say, "Sister-in-law is like a mother." Old people with white beards and children wearing open-backed pants all know that this is because of the official Bao Gong.

It was the Song Dynasty, and there was an official in Luzhou, Bao Zheng. This year, Bao Zheng went to Chisang Town. Wow, in Chisang Town, Bao Zheng encountered a "hand biting" incident: a white-haired old woman cried and ran to the yamen, suing Bao Zheng's nephew Bao Mian, killing her son, killing her grandson, raping her daughter-in-law and causing death. Bao Zheng approved the case and issued an arrest warrant for the murderer for several days. Bao Zheng for this matter, eat not sweet, sleep instability, appear darker and thinner.

On this day, Bao Zheng sat in the official office, still unable to find out the murderer. After leaving my office, he went home with a sad face. His wife, Li Fu, came up with a rattle in her hand and said seriously:

"xianggong", this thing was turned out when clearing things, and it broke down over time. Why do you want this thing? It still takes up a lot of space. I think it is better to throw it away! "

Bao Zheng took the rattle from her husband and solemnly said:

"This, this line!"

After that, I looked at the rattle, so focused, as if I were looking at a rare treasure. Why does Bao Zheng love this toy so much? The following is the story of Bao Zheng's childhood.

It turns out that Bao Zheng is the son of Lao Han (the youngest child). His mother was old when he was born, and he was old and weak. In addition, he catches cold after delivery and is prone to illness. He died before the full moon in Bao Zheng. Sister-in-law loved her brother-in-law who lost his mother before the full moon, so she took Bao Zheng back to her room and raised him in the cradle of her youngest son Bao Zheng's nephew Bao Mian. Sister-in-law is kind and simple. Breast milk is made in her brother-in-law, and the rest is her son's. One person's milk and two people's dishes are naturally not enough. "There is not enough milk, and porridge should be made up." Bao Mian grew up eating rice porridge.

When Bao Zheng was two years old, his brother bought a rattle from the collection for Bao Mian to play with. Children like novelty. When Bao Zheng saw it, he would; If Bao Mian doesn't give it, Bao Zheng cries for it. Seeing this situation, my sister-in-law blames her husband for not having one, and the distribution is uneven. At the same time, she took the rattle from Bao Mian and gave it to Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng stopped crying, but her own son kept crying. A look, just know just now because of too hard, rattle contemptuously to Bao Mian's tender hand, blood paste soaked. Grandfather felt sorry for his grandson and wanted to take the rattle away from the old man's son, but his sister-in-law stopped him.

"Dad, no mother uncle is poor. Bao Mian, what's the point of crying twice? Old people often say:' Gourd hangs big, children cry big'. If anything happens to me, I am still young and strong! "

Sister-in-law's words made my father-in-law speechless, so she didn't get the rattle back from Bao Zheng. Sister-in-law turned and grabbed a handful of ashes from the incense burner on the case and twisted it on Bao Mian's wound to stop bleeding. From then on, Bao Mian left an obvious scar on his hand. Until Bao Zheng was ten years old, before his father died, he gave him a rattle and told it three times for Bao Zheng to remember. He closed his eyes safely. Since then, Bao Zheng has been carrying a rattle.

Li Furen looked at Bao Zheng as emotional as a rattle, and further said:

Xianggong, this thing is broken and old. It is neither gold nor silver. Really don't leave a head. "

"Bah!" Bao Zheng was angry and said, "Honey, your horse doesn't know its face. How could you forget? From the day you walked in the door, I told you more than once about my sister-in-law's selfless heart and her golden advice. My sister-in-law gave me this rattle. Worth more than gold and silver! "

Li Furen didn't forget it, but deliberately reminded Bao Zheng about it. It turned out that Bao Mian knew that he had been sued outside, and Bao Zheng approved it. Uncle has always been impartial. He was afraid, so he hid beside menstruation and begged menstruation to intercede for him. Li Furen naturally agreed. However, she was familiar with Bao Zheng's straightforward personality and was afraid of being unkind at the moment, so she tried to impress Bao Zheng.

At this moment, she touched a door and said:

"all right! I'll collect the rattle! " "xianggong"-"

Bao Zheng impatient and said:

"Madam, just say what you have to say!"

""xianggong ",sister-in-law only Bao Mian this blood, read the grace of sister-in-law, forgive Bao Mian! Let him turn over a new leaf and serve the nephew in his later years. "

"ah!"

Bao Zheng was surprised and realized that the accident was at home. Lee took out his rattle and pleaded with Bao Mian, but Bao Mian failed to catch it. That's "ghosts at home." How can this work? Can you break the national law by shielding your own flesh and blood? Originally, Bao Zheng wanted to get angry, but he thought it would make things more troublesome. At this time, there came another sentence, "The old duck floats-its face does not move", saying:

"This ... this ... this matter, let's talk about it later!"

Li Furen thought that Bao Zheng was emotional, and he was a little relieved to worry about Bao Mian.

In the afternoon, Bao Zheng took Li Furen to the official hall. Let the dynasty and Mahan invite the white-haired aunt to class. Bao Zheng said:

"What's your name, old man, what's your grievance? Say it, I will make a decision with you. "

The white-haired woman endured the grief and said:

"My name is Xiao Liu, from Chisang Town. Bao Mian killed my family of three because they raped my daughter-in-law. Please make a decision for me. "

"Xiao Liu, you can see clearly, isn't that bad guy pretending to be Bao Mian?"

"Adult, and villains crime, I was there. I heard him say with my own ears,' I'm Bao Gong's nephew, and I can't solve my grievances.' When he killed my son, I saw with my own eyes a big and thick scar on his left hand. Even my two-year-old grandson, crying for his mother, never let go. He grabbed the rattle in Xiao Nen's hand with his scarred left hand, grabbed it with his right hand and fell to the ground. The daughter-in-law was robbed, refused to accept, and was also killed. Oh, my God! "

Li Fu turned blue with anger; Bao Zheng listened, his heart ached. But he deliberately said:

"Liu, Bao Mian is my nephew. Please forgive me. I will give you three hundred and twenty pieces of silver to arrange your old age. "

Like a bolt from the blue, shaw eyes with tears, eyes wide open, nu way:

"Bah! I don't want your stinking money, and you don't have to worry about my lonely old woman. As the saying goes:' Don't complain even if you die', it turns out that you are also an official who cares about your loved ones, and your honest official has a good reputation! "

Bao Zheng is not angry, turn to Li Furen said;

"Honey, what do you think of this?"

Li Furen bite a tooth and said:

""xianggong ",you do it according to the national law! Bao Mian is hiding in my back garden. "

Bang. Bao patted the gavel and cried;

"Catch the murderer!"

"Hey!"

Voice down, Bao Mian was taken to the lobby. How can it be fast? It turned out that Bao Zheng took Li Furen to the street and ordered Zhang Long and Zhao Hu to search their homes. Without Li Furen's stop, Bao Mian was naturally arrested. Bao Zheng's strategy is well used! Li Furen figured it out and naturally handed over the murderer; Li Furen think impassability, also according to catch the murderer.

Bao Mian district in class, xiao liu call way:

"It's the thief, my Lord. You and I are in charge of revenge for my daughter-in-law. "

Bao Mian knew something was wrong and cried and said to Li Furen:

"Aunt, you promised to make love for my nephew; Aunt, tell your uncle quickly! "

Burying his face in Li Furen, cried and said:

"Bao Mian, your sin is too heavy, your aunt can't save you! Don't blame your aunt, she has prepared paper money for you. "

Thieves in Bao Mian also have the wisdom of thieves. Seeing that begging Li Furen was no good, they stretched out their scarred hands and just shook them, trying to impress Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng see beard shaking, resolutely take out the word "chop", said:

"Bao Mian, your mother left you a" selfless "hand, how do you use this hand to do evil! The national law is ruthless. Only by beheading you can you be worthy of your selfless nephew. "

With that, he threw the pen away and ordered the execution.

"Hey!"

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu pushed Bao Mian out of the hall.

Bao Zheng said to Liu:

"Liu, beheaded Bao Mian, avenged the tragic death of your son's daughter-in-law. It's just that people can't be resurrected after death. This official thinks you are lonely and lifeless. I will still give you 320 yuan to arrange your old age! "

"Lord Xie Bao."

After a while, Bao Mian was beheaded, and Zhang Long and Zhao Hu presented a bloody head. Bao Zheng, a look, changed the old rigid temper, burst into tears, tears like broken beads. Li Furen was still sobbing. He stopped his sadness and said:

Xianggong, Bao Mian has been taught the law. Why are you crying? "

Old Bao said:

"Bao Mian is the orthodox religion, and he deserves it. Sorry sister-in-law when crying! My sister-in-law not only gave me milk, but also gave me a selfless heart. I only know how to repay my sister-in-law's kindness and love my nephew blindly, but I didn't educate my nephew well, which made him commit a great crime. I am sorry for my sister-in-law! "

Said, and cried again; The more you cry, the sadder you get. Li Furen had to persuade:

""xianggong ",you should put your body first. Sister-in-law knows the important principle well and won't blame you. Think more about my sister-in-law's old age. It's hard enough to be alone. "

Bao Zheng stopped crying and said:

"Ah, that you put your heart in the belly. I've thought about it. Sister-in-law, I will prepare. You must remember' long sister-in-law looks like mother' and' respect sister-in-law looks like mother' in the future. "

"Yes!"
