In the 25th year of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, there was a man named Li Fu in Weifang, Shandong. He was in his forties and had a son who was just five years old. He was smart and cute.

Li Fu really wanted to grow up with his children at home every day, but if his family was poor and didn't go out to make a living, the family would starve. In order to make a living, Li Fu bid farewell to his wife and son in tears and went to the capital to be a teacher and earn money to support the family.

By the end of the year, Li had accumulated twenty taels of silver, and he was very happy. With these twenty taels of silver, it was enough to go back and have a good year.

The family-minded Li was eager to walk home in one step, so he didn't rest at night and rushed home in a hurry. On this day, Li walked at night, because the weather was cold, he couldn't stand it, so he planned to find a place to warm up.

There happened to be a house in front of him with a faint light. Li Fu walked to the door of the house and planned to borrow a fire from the owner's house and smoke some dry smoke to keep warm.

He walked to the door and saw an old lady sitting on the edge of the bed. There was a sick child lying in bed. The child was yellow and thin, and the old lady looked at the child with pain.

Li Fu thought of his son, and his compassion rose spontaneously, so he asked the old lady, "Old man, what happened to your grandson?" The old lady replied with a frown, "My family has three generations, and this little grandson is the blood of my family's blood. Now he is seriously ill and at risk.

The doctor said that if you want to cure your child's disease, you must use ginseng as a medicine. You also know that ginseng is very expensive, and it costs two taels of silver to buy it. As a poor old woman, where can I have so much silver?" But without silver, my grandson's disease cannot be cured." I am worried about that. "

After saying this, tears fell from the old lady's eyes. Li Fu quickly comforted and said, "Don't be sad, old man, I have silver here. I will give you two taels, you can buy ginseng for your child to make medicine." After saying this, Li Fu took out more than two taels of silver and put it on the table of the old lady's house, then said goodbye and left.

A few days later, when Li Fu returned home, he saw that his son looked bad, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. He asked his wife what was going on, and the wife replied: I was about to tell you about it. Our son had a serious illness last month and was about to die.

One night a few days ago, I dreamed that my grandmother came to my house and handed me a bowl of ginseng soup, asking me to take it for my child, saying that ginseng soup can cure diseases. I fed my son a bowl of ginseng soup in my dream, but after waking up, our son's illness really improved and recovered.

According to his wife's account, Li Fu calculated the date of his wife's dream of his grandmother, which was the day he gave the old lady two taels of silver. Li Fu saved his life and his son recovered. Maybe all this was a kind of repayment from God to good people.
