Chapter 161 Debt Repayment

Li Ming is generous and kind. Wang Zhuo, a fellow countryman, lives in Li's house as a servant. This person has been idle since childhood, lazy, not good at farm work, and poor. However, he has little skills and often does some chores for Li's house, and the rewards are rich. Whenever the family interrupts cooking, he borrows food from his owner. Li Jiming responds to his request, and he borrows several buckets.

On this day, Wang Zhuo said to Li Zhuming, "The little man was funded by the master, and the family of three or four survived. But in the long run, it is not a good policy. Please lend me a stone mung bean as a notebook to do business. Li Zhuming readily agreed and immediately awarded the mung bean. Wang Zhuo thanked him for leaving.

A year passed in a blink of an eye, and Wang Zhuo did not repay the loan. Li Zhuming was curious and asked what was going on. Only then did he know that mung bean capital had already been spent. Li Zhuming sympathed with his poverty and did not collect debts.

Three years later, Li Zhuming was studying in the temple. He dreamed that Wang Zhuo came and said, "The villain still owes the master a stone of mung bean, and now he is here to repay it." Li Ximing comforted and said, "That's all. If you really have to care about everything, the money and food you borrow on weekdays can't be calculated.

Wang Zhuo sighed when he heard the words and said, "That's right. But as long as you do little, you can't be rewarded with a lot of money. On the contrary, if you receive money without merit, even if you raise the benefits, you can't receive it, let alone more?" After leaving, Li Zhuming became more and more confused. In fact, he didn't know the meaning of Wang Zhuo's words.

Then the family came to report: the female donkey gave birth at night and her body was magnificent.

Li Zhuming suddenly woke up and thought, "Is it that Wang Zhuo came to repay his kindness as a donkey?" A few days later, he returned home and went to the stable to visit the little donkey. He called Wang Zhuo's name in his mouth. The little donkey came forward and was rubbed with an intimate attitude.

Since then, Li Zhuming has called the donkey under the name of Wang Zhuozhi. On this day, he rode a donkey to Qingzhou. The housekeeper of Hengwang Mansion suddenly saw the donkey and liked it very much. He wanted to buy it at a high price, but the negotiation was not decided. Li Zhuming was eager to wait because of something at home. The business had not yet been negotiated, so he hurriedly said goodbye.

Another year later, the donkey ate in the same groove with the male horse and was bitten by the male horse. The shin fracture was broken and could not be treated. It happened that a cow doctor visited the house. Seeing this situation, he said, "Please give the donkey to the little man and go back to recuperate day and night. After a few months, he may be able to recover. At that time, sell donkeys for money, and the profit will be divided equally. Li Jiming did as he wished and agreed.

A few months later, the cow doctor sold the donkey, got 1,800 copper coins, and took out half of it to Mr. Li. Li Shuming took the copper plate and suddenly realized: Isn't nine hundred copper coins exactly the price of one stone mung bean?

Won! Debts owed in the previous life and repaid in the afterlife are enough to persuade.
