The Rise and Fall of Two Households in Qinghe Town During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, Qinghe Town in northern Jiangsu relied on the ancient canal. Most of the people in the town relied on the river for food, either doing shipping or running grocery stores. Their lives varied between tight and loose. The Wang family at the east end of the town and the Li family at the west end of the town were both engaged in cloth trading. In the early years of Guangxu's reign, the two families had almost the same amount of money. But thirty years later, the Li family became a well-known wealthy family in the town, while the Wang family was so poor that even the cloth shop paid off its debts. Some people said this was fate, but the elders in the town knew that the difference between the two families was not due to luck, but to the "qi in the nest." The head of the Wang family is called Wang Laoshi, whose name means "honest", but his temper is as stubborn as a rock; his wife Zhang has a "firecracker temper" and can explode with a spark. The couple lives their daily lives with few pleasant words from morning to night. When they speak, they always make excuses, and when they shut up, they make mistakes. He said that the business opened in the morning, and Mrs. Zhang wanted to hang the red cloth in a conspicuous place, saying, "Red cloth is festive and there are many people buying it." Wang Laoshi immediately glared: "You know nothing! It's hot now, who will buy red cloth? Hanging blue cloth!" Mrs. Zhang didn't show any weakness: "When I was selling cloth, you were still digging in the ground! What do you know about business?" The two of them argued with red faces, and in the end, the red and blue cloths were not hung up properly. The customer stood at the door and looked at it for a while, shook his head and left. Little things at home can trigger the "sensitive nerves" between the two of them. Mrs. Zhang put half a spoonful of salt in her cooking, and Wang Laoshi could complain all afternoon: "You want to salt me to death? Didn't you know that you have to pay for salt at home?" Mrs. Zhang washed the dishes without drying them, and Wang Laoshi scolded her again: "Water left in the bowl will cause mold. Are you blind?" In turn, Wang Laoshi collected the bill. When Wang Laoshi repaired a leaky window, Mrs. Zhang could complain until midnight: "It leaks in the winter and rains in the summer. Living with you is really bad luck for eight lifetimes!" Their son Wang Xiaoshuan has been accustomed to seeing his parents behave like this since he was a child, and he has become a "little stubborn" because of what he has seen and heard. The private school teacher taught him to "review the past and learn the new" and asked him to review more at night. Wang Xiaoshuan immediately retorted: "My father said that studying is useless, it is better to learn to do business!" His mother asked him to help look after the shop and stop secretly playing by the river. He frowned and retorted: "You Why don't you look at it? You know how to command me! You have to buy me candy!" One time, Wang Xiaoshuan miscalculated the size of the cloth. He still dared to say back: "Isn't it because you didn't teach me well? You didn't do it well back then!" The most terrible thing about the Wang family is that they "have no problem-solving skills and are first-rate at throwing shame". One summer, the canal swelled and flooded the back warehouse of the cloth shop. Several pieces of good cloth were soaked in water. When something like this happened to the Li family, the whole family went to work moving cloth, drying cloth, and cleaning the warehouse. They were busy in an orderly manner; but what about the Wang family? Wang Laoshi looked at the wet cloth and first scolded God for not being smart, and then scolded Mrs. Zhang for not tightening the barn door; Mrs. Zhang didn't work, sat on the threshold and cried, scolding Wang Laoshi for choosing a poor location for the shop; Wang Xiaoshuan, not to mention, hid in the house playing crickets and refused to even come out to take a look. In the end, all the good cloth became moldy and could only be sold as scrap. Not only did the Wang family make no money, they also lost capital. However, the family did not think of how to remedy the situation, and instead complained to each other for half a month. Looking at the Li family in the west of Zhenxi, the head Li Shouye is gentle and his wife Zhao is virtuous. The couple always talks through consultation. When the door opened in the morning, Mrs. Zhao said: "There is a temple fair in town today. Let's put out the floral cloths, maybe they will sell well." Li Shouye nodded: "You are thoughtful, and also bring out the floral cloths for children's bellybands. There are many people at the temple fair, and there are many children." One of them moved the cloth, and the other hung up the cover, and they packed it up in a short while. When something happens, the Li family never blames each other, they only think about how to solve it. One time, Li Shouye went to a neighboring town to purchase goods. He encountered robbers on the way and lost two pieces of cloth. When he went home and told Ms. Zhao, Ms. Zhao did not scold him, but comforted him: "It's okay if everything is alright. If the cloth is gone, we will make more money. Bring more people with you next time to buy goods, and you will be safe on the road." His son Li Xiaoman failed in the exam at a private school. Li Shouye did not beat or scold him. I just read the wrong question with him: "You didn't understand this question clearly, be more careful next time; you didn't learn this question, dad will review it with you tonight." Li Xiaoman was also obedient, nodded and said, "Dad, I will definitely pay attention next time." Everyone in the Li family has always "thought in one place and worked hard in one place." During the busy farming season, Li Shouye went to the fields to harvest wheat, while Zhao cooked and looked after the shop at home. Li Xiaoman went to the fields to help cut wheat after school. In winter, when business was slow, Li Shouye learned to make wooden cabinets from the carpenters in the town. He wanted to build some new shelves for the cloth shop, so Zhao helped pass the tools, and Li Xiaoman also learned beside him, saying, "I can help my father with work in the future." One year, printed fabrics were popular in the town, but the Li family had no stock, so Li Shouye went to Suzhou to learn printing technology. Zhao stayed at home and guarded the shop, explaining to regular customers: "When my shopkeeper comes back, there will be new fabrics, don't worry." Within a few months, Li Shouye came back after completing his studies. The printed calicoes were good-looking and cheap, and the market opened up immediately, and the cloth shop's business was more prosperous than before. As the days passed, the gap between the two families grew wider and wider. Because of the constant quarrels and internal strife in the Wang family, the business of the cloth shop was getting worse and worse. Customers were afraid of the "smell of gunpowder" in their house and would rather walk a few steps to buy cloth from Li's house. Later, Wang Laoshi accidentally pushed someone and injured someone because of an argument. He lost a lot of money and had to pay off the debt of the cloth shop. The family moved to a dilapidated house on the outskirts of the city and lived by Wang Laoshi pulling fabrics and Wang Xiaoshuan picking up rags. When Wang Xiaoshuan grew up, he was just like his father. He was always enthusiastic about everything. When he encountered problems, he blamed others. He was in his thirties and had not yet started a family. He was idle all day long. And what about the Li family? The cloth shop opened bigger and bigger, and even opened a dyeing shop. Li Shouye became the "Shopkeeper Li" in the town; Li Xiaoman not only passed the examination as a scholar, but also helped his father take care of the business and kept the accounts of the cloth shop clearly. Later, he married the daughter of the owner of the silk and satin shop in the neighboring town, and lived a prosperous life. One time, Wang Xiaoshuan passed by the Li family's cloth shop and saw Li Xiaoman wearing a decent long gown, smiling and talking to customers. Thinking about his tattered clothes, he couldn't help but sigh - he finally understood that it was not his fate that was bad, but the "fighting" in the family that ruined all his good days. The old people in the town often say to their younger generations: "Look at the Wang family and the Li family. At the beginning, their families were almost the same. Why was one poor and the other rich? Because the Wang family fought among themselves every day and spent all their energy on arguing and throwing shame. But the Li family worked together, solving problems together and working hard together when there were goals." He said: "Poverty is not scary. What is scary is that the family does not work together and is at war every day. The three generations of the family are running forward together, but your family is holding back each other. How can you compete with others? Children grow up in such a home and learn all about stubbornness and bad habits. How can they be successful?" Later, the people in Qinghe Town took the story of the Wang family and the Li family as a lesson and taught their children: "Life is like pulling a boat. The family has to pull hard in one direction so that the boat can go fast; if someone pulls forward and someone pulls back, how can the boat move forward? At home, be harmonious and avoid arguing. , The more you discuss, the more prosperous your life will be." The decline of the Wang family has also become a warning passed down from generation to generation in Qinghe Town - the prosperity of a family never depends on luck, but on the unity of the family; the poverty of a family is not due to bad luck, but is often due to endless internal strife.
