Volume 2 Wandering Around the World Chapter 72 Living up to benevolence and filial piety

Although Yu Zhixiao was well-educated in poetry and books, he was talented but had no chance to pass the exam. Even though the villagers knew that he was a filial son and had talented, facing the reality of his family and his paralyzed mother, who would marry his daughter to this poor boy to suffer?

But the situation is different now. The simple villagers all think that Yu Zhixiao's filial piety moved the gods, so they sent Zheng Dao to eliminate the demons. While people were grateful to Zheng Dao, they also calculated Yu Zhixiao. Now the villagers educated their children to take Yu Zhixiao as an example. Yu Zhixiao's filial piety and deeds became a widely circulated story in the villages of all directions.

Those young girls who have not yet got married are all in love with him, and their parents also feel that if they can marry their daughter to such a person, they will have infinite glory on their faces.

As a result, a large number of matchmakers took the initiative to go to the Yu family to talk about their relatives. Those who wanted to marry their girls to Yu Ji Hyo have made a clear statement that they not only don’t need a penny of bride gifts, but they can also pay gifts as long as Yu Ji Hyo agrees. After marriage, they can also help Yu Ji Hyo to get fame.

Yu Zhixiao did not choose those high-ranking officials who could make him rise to the top, nor did he choose the landlord and rich family who could make him have no worries about food and clothing. Instead, he took the initiative to pursue a girl from a poor scholar's family in the neighboring village as his companion. Although this girl was less gentle than those lustful and less noble than the daughters of the landlord and rich family.

But Yu Ji-hyo knew that this girl had always been well-educated, a thrifty and virtuous supporter, a good friend who could share the joys and sorrows with her until old age, and that scholar was Yu Ji-hyo's enlightenment mentor. Yu Ji-hyo had been obsessed with this girl for a long time, but she never dared to speak out because she felt that she was not in good condition. The girl also secretly agreed to Ji-hyo.

After more than a month of recuperation, Zheng Dao's injuries have basically healed. With the help of the villagers' rich meals, the four of them have gained weight. Zheng Dao wanted to send Mingyang to Lingxiao Sect as soon as possible so that he could get out and travel.

Not wanting to waste time, Zheng Dao and Mingyang were about to set off. When they went to bid farewell to Yu Ji Hyo, they were kept because Yu Ji Hyo was about to get married. He asked Zheng Dao and Mingyang to stay for a few more days to drink him.

Let’s go away with a cup of wedding wine. Zheng Dao and Mingyang are hard to stop their affection. The trip to Lingxiao Sect has been delayed, so it’s not too late for the past few days.

There is a free matchmaker Yu Ji Hyo and the scholar to discuss the date and process of the wedding. Since neither of them is a wealthy businessman from a wealthy family, they discuss the simplest way to get the wedding.

The poor scholar is also a wise and sensible person. The reason why he never got a fame in his life is not because his talent is not good at learning, but because he lacks an opportunity and the capital to donate money to become a leader. Although he cannot embark on the career of officialdom to show his ambitions, the old scholar always sticks to his original aspirations and does not seek to gain strength by studying.

Yu Zhixiao chose to marry his daughter because he respected his mentor's character and loved his daughter's virtue. The two families had already discussed it, but those high-ranking officials and landlords and wealthy families still did not give up.

Even though his daughter could not marry Yu Ji Hyo, she did not want to miss the opportunity to earn a good reputation and make friends with Yu Ji Hyo. They expressed their willingness to invest in making Yu Ji Hyo's wedding luxurious and decent. However, their kindness was politely declined by Yu Ji Hyo, and he insisted on keeping everything simple.

The wedding day is approaching, and the villagers are also busy. They do not use Ji Hyo to speak. The villagers have spontaneously renovated the old house in Yu's family and dressed up a new look.

Yu Zhixiao and Yu's mother also received several new clothes, which were secretly delivered by the skillful aunt after they were prepared. The home house had a basin and the west house, and he had to make up all the things that Yu's family lacked. Yu Zhixiao refused in every way and couldn't stop him.

The wedding date has come, and Yu Zhixiao got up early to go to the neighboring village to meet his bride. The strong young men in the village have gathered at home, carrying sedan chairs and playing the bride. Hundreds of people are surrounded by Yu Zhixiao and walking outside the village. Such a huge bride-coupling team is really spectacular. But as soon as Yu Zhixiao left, something unexpected happened in the village.

This situation has never happened before, and may not happen again in the future, because no one will receive such high treatment again. Yu Ji-hyo, who returned to the village happily, was surprised to see the scene in front of him, which made him extremely moved.

All the villagers gathered spontaneously on both sides of the road, just like they had previously provided Zheng Dao's meals.

The best thing is used as a gift to Yu Ji Hyo, and he makes the best meal waiting for him to bring the bride back.

Seeing Yu Ji-hyo and the bride's sedan chair appear at the entrance of the village, the spontaneous drum band organized by the village started to play hard. For a moment, the gongs and drums were very lively, and the villagers followed behind and walked towards his house. Yu Ji-hyo wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and clasped his fists to thank the villagers.

When getting married, Yu Ji-hyo insisted that Zheng Dao and his mother sit on the top and accept the kneeling of a couple as elders. This wedding became an unprecedented grand occasion in the village. Even the Chinese New Year was not so lively, which was considered the highest standard of the wedding, because no one could let the villagers do this together.

The wine and food were spontaneously replaced by the villagers like flowing water. The gifts were piled up and the houses were almost taller. The whole village was lively for a whole day, and it was not until the third day of the day that it gradually came to an end.

A couple of newcomers were sent into the bridal chamber amid the blessings of the villagers. From then on, Yu Ji-hyo and his wife respect each other and went through an ordinary life in love, and were passed down as a good story among neighbors.

After drinking Yu Ji-hyo's wedding wine, Zheng Dao and the others could no longer delay their trip. The next morning, they quit their leave and set off on their way. Yu Ji-hyo, with his newlywed wife and all the villagers reluctantly sent them to the outside of the village. Yu Ji-hyo said with tears in his eyes: "Mr., you must come here if you have the chance in the future. We will always remember your great kindness."

Zheng Dao smiled and said, "Brother Yu, don't say that. If I pass by when I travel in the future, I will definitely go to find you." The names of the two were very inconsistent. Yu Ji-hyo insisted on calling Zheng Dao the benefactor, but Zheng Dao called Yu Ji-hyo a brother.

Zheng Dao took out a thin booklet from his arms and handed it to Yu Zhixiao, saying, "This is a set of exercises to cultivate one's own nature. When you are fine, you must practice it. Although you cannot let you learn any advanced skills, it is still very beneficial for curing diseases and strengthening your body and prolonging your life. You can let the villagers practice diligently and gradually improve your physical fitness."

Yu Ji-hyo took the booklet with both hands, and saw the cover of "The Technique of Correcting the Body and Clearing the Mind". Yu Ji-hyo put it in his arms without even looking carefully and putting it seriously, saying, "Thank you, my kindness."
