If we look at the list of major events in Yangfeng County this spring, the incident in which the Bai family and his son from Shenshu Village in Nanguan Mountain worked together to kill a tiger to eliminate harm to the people is definitely at the top of the list.
A country man, for the sake of his fellow villagers, his father used his body to lure the tiger, and his two sons, one behind the other, welcomed the tiger from left to right.
Every element is full of legend, and the news swept through the entire Yangfeng County like a strong wind, with heated discussions in the streets and alleys.
The reputation of the Lao Bai family broke through Shenshu Village in one fell swoop, passed through Nanguan Town, and came to Yangfeng County.
From the county magistrate to the village women in the countryside, everyone knows about the heroic tiger-fighting heroes of the Bai family and his son.
Children in the streets clapped their hands and sang: "Tiger, Tiger, no matter how cruel you are, if you meet the Bai family and his son, you will lose your life..."
Many teahouses and restaurants created booklets about the story of the Bai family and his son fighting tigers, and the venues were packed with people.
Boss Tan from Nanguan Town was drunk and stamped his feet. The fourth son of the Bai family, who was eagerly looking forward to returning home from the examination in Fucheng, planned to double the remuneration and asked him to return to the village to interview the parties in person and write the best story that shocked Yangfeng County. Tiger Fighting Book.
When the time comes, arrange a tour.
Relying on his friendship with the fourth son of the Bai family, he invited the father and son of the Bai family to fight tigers on stage, which was more exciting.
The three heroes of the Lao Bai family's tiger fight, faced waves of praise, and waves of watching from surrounding villages, as if they were floating in the clouds.
Some people even considered marrying the tiger-fighting heroes.
The white wooden boards are already old, and it won't do for the old cucumber to paint them green.
The boss of the Bai family is honest and capable, loves his wife, and is the main force in fighting tigers. It's a pity that he got married, but his eldest son can do it, so he should recognize his father-in-law first. Frightened, Xie Chuntao and Bai Dazhuang waved their hands repeatedly.
Bai Zhaomei, the five boys from the Bai family can do it. They dare to fight tigers at such a young age. That strong and courageous man will be a good farmer in the future, so let’s make a decision first.
So he wanted to get married with Bai Zhaomei and cross the threshold of the Bai family, but was rejected by Zhen and Bai Banban.
In addition, some matchmakers came to Bai Sanzhuang's house and wanted to marry him, and some even wanted to give Bai Erzhuang a baby.
However, the one everyone wanted to get married to was Xiao Fukuoka.
Everyone knew the status of Lao Bai's daughter in the Bai family, and they didn't dare to speak out for fear of being beaten out by the heroic father and son fighting tigers.
I don’t dare to speak out in person, but I can take a curveball route to save the country.
Therefore, every day, many male dolls from other villages in Shenshu Village were taken by their parents and placed in front of Bai's house to play with little Fuyuan.
Bai Banban was still wondering why groups of male dolls were surrounding Xiao Fuyuan every day. What did they want?
If he knew the truth, he would probably pick up his daughter and run away.
Yesterday, the village chief informed Lao Bai's family that the silver reward would arrive today.
One hundred taels of white money makes me excited just thinking about it.
When the sky was dimming, Lao Bai's family cleaned the room and yard. The whole family put on new clothes, finished breakfast and waited for the arrival of the silver reward.
In order to highlight the status of the owner of this silver reward, Mrs. Bai even boiled hot water and let Bai Dazhuang, Bai Dazhuang and Bai Zhaomei bathe and wash their hair.
The three fathers and sons, dressed in brand new clothes, stood upright at the door, dressed as if they were getting married.
Bai Sanzhuang got the news and returned home early. Except for Bai Panmei who was taking the test in Huaicheng, the sons of the Bai family gathered together.
Everyone discussed in low voices with great excitement what posture they should use to receive the money.
However, what excites the Bai family more than the silver reward—
"Qiang Qiang Qiang..."
"Dong dong dong..."
"We're here! This is Lao Bai's house...the home of the tiger-fighting hero."
The Bai family stretched their necks.
A huge crowd appeared in front of them. Those walking in front were playing drums, beating gongs, walking on stilts, and dancing lions.
With a burst of noisy gongs and drums, and warm laughter and laughter, a large group of people poured into the door of Lao Bai's house.
The fiery atmosphere scared the birds in the trees.
This battle is too big.
Bai Banban looked at the crowd and saw Village Chief Fa Xiaozhao accompanying a mighty middle-aged man in official robes with an excited and careful look on his face. He pointed at the door of Lao Bai's house as he walked.
He just said, this battle was definitely not caused by Village Chief Zhao of Shenshu Village, it must have been caused by the town...
The layout of the white wooden boards is too small. The person walking in front of the team is the county magistrate, and behind the county magistrate is a group of tall and powerful government servants.
A government servant held a box in his hand, with red silk cloth spread under the box.
Several other government officials carried a plaque with red silk hanging on it.
This battle was a celebration held by the county government.
The Bai family looked at the middle-aged man in official robes at the front of the team with surprised expressions, trying to figure out the identity of this person.
Bai Erzhuang recognized the person in official robes as the county magistrate. A few days ago, before the provincial examination, the county magistrate personally went to the town's private school to encourage the students.
Village Chief Zhao stepped out of the queue in time, quickly ran to the white wooden board, and said excitedly: "Brother, this is the county magistrate Mr. Liu."
"I have met the county magistrate." Bai Erzhuang pulled his father and brothers up to greet him and bowed.
"I have met the county magistrate." Bai Banban and Bai Dazhuang said in a trembling voice.
This was not the first time they met the county magistrate. They met Bai Erzhuang once when he was admitted to the scholar examination. However, this county magistrate was not the other county magistrate. The current county magistrate was Liu Hong, the magistrate who had just been transferred to take charge.
Is the matter of killing tigers worthy of the county magistrate's intervention?
When Mrs. Bai heard that he was the county magistrate, she was surprised and hurriedly brought the female members of the Bai family to greet him.
"Hahaha, no gifts for the old lady...no gifts for Brother Bai..." County Magistrate Liu Hong personally helped up the old lady Bai, then lifted up the white wooden board, then helped up Bai Dazhuang, and finally touched Bai Zhaomei's head and said happily He praised: "You, father and son, of the Bai family, used your bodies to lure tigers and eliminate harm for the people. It is a song and a respectable act. As a parent and official, I should come to the door in person to show my respect."
"I can't take it seriously." Bai Ban said with a smile.
Liu Hong waved his hands to the government officials behind him, and the government officials holding vermilion lacquer boxes came to the Bai family.
Liu Hong personally uncovered the red silk cloth on it. In an instant, a hundred taels of white silver appeared stacked in the box, dazzling people's eyes in the sunlight.
"Wow!" The villagers exclaimed in envy.
anything else-
The second wave of government officials came to the Bai family and his son carrying the plaque.
Liu Hong was even more energetic than he was when he lifted the red silk cloth for the first time. He lifted up the red silk cloth covering the plaque, and the six characters "Home of Tiger Fighting Heroes" were revealed on the plaque.
"What does this say?" someone in the crowd whispered.
The village chief glanced at the crowd with a straight face, telling the county magistrate that he must not act recklessly again.
The county magistrate, however, did not show any pretense and personally solved the riddles for the illiterate people in the village. He pointed at the plaque with a smile and said: "The Home of the Tiger Fighting Heroes commends the Bai family father and son for their contribution to eliminating tiger tigers."
The county magistrate was very satisfied. At first, the county government discussed how to put the words on the plaque for Lao Bai's family. They discussed several versions of the plan, and finally he personally decided on the six words "Home of the Tiger Fighting Heroes".
For farmers, these words are simple, loud and down-to-earth. The key is for rural people to understand what they mean.
Sure enough, everyone suddenly realized it and looked at the door of Lao Bai's house with envy.
