Credits Produced by Yi Chen Chaung
Summary "Lin Er Bao" by Anonymous is a fictional narrative likely written in the early 18th century. The story revolves around a kind-hearted and humble man named Lian Xiaocun, who, despite his poverty, thrives on doing good deeds for others. The tale explores themes of virtue, kindness, and the idea that good actions lead to unexpected rewards, intertwining the lives of Lian and a mysterious figure who appears to guide his fate. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Lian Xiaocun and his family during a harsh winter when they face a severe snowstorm. Displaying his compassionate nature, Lian invites a destitute and cold stranger into his home, treating him with kindness. This encounter is not about simple hospitality; the stranger is revealed to be a supernatural being, Gai Xian Weng, who decides to bless Lian for his selflessness. As the story progresses, Lian faces various trials but remains steadfast in his good nature, leading to themes of destiny and fortune that evolve throughout the tale. The beginning sets the tone for a story rich in moral lessons and the intertwining of human actions with cosmic consequences. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
