Lucky husband

In the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Mingjin woke up at about the same time as usual. He opened his eyes and looked at the tiles on the roof, his mind a little dazed, because he had a dream last night.

But Li Mingjin couldn't remember the content of the dream. He just remembered that he seemed to be running on the mountain, and there was another person running like him not far away. He couldn't recall the appearance of that person, only knew his appearance About the same height as my brother.

It was the first time he had such a dream that he couldn't recall, Li Mingjin lay on the bed and thought about it for a while. After his grandma woke the children up, he put this strange dream behind him and got up quickly to get dressed.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, the Li family worshiped their ancestors together.

In the afternoon, everyone can do whatever they want. You can go out to see the temple fair near the county seat, or you can stay at home to catch up on sleep.

The adults of the Li family kept vigil all night until dawn. In addition, Li Chengzhi and Bai Xiuhe were very tired from setting up the rice noodle stall this month, so they chose to catch up on sleep.

Li Chengshi had just returned home for two days and wanted to take a break, and Li Mingkang was too young to take him to crowded places, so they chose to sleep at home.

The adults have gone to bed, and they don't care what the children want to play, as long as they don't leave the village. Anyway, there are quite a few families staying in the village today, so there will be no danger in the village.

In this way, the first day of the new year passed, night fell, and everyone slept normally.

That night, Li Mingjin dreamed again, it was the same dream as last night, and he still couldn't recall the content of the dream after waking up, but he was sure that he was running on the mountain, but the speed didn't seem like he could run out, The plants on both sides receded too quickly.

In addition, Li Mingjin saw that there was still a person beside him, but that person's appearance was like a shadow hidden in the thick fog, so he couldn't see clearly no matter how he looked.

Having had this dream for two consecutive days, Li Mingjin thought it was quite interesting, as if he was playing a lantern riddle game, to see if he would have this dream again tonight, he wanted to know what happened in the dream.

The married daughter returned to her natal home in the second year of junior high school. After getting up early to pack her things, Li Chengshi took his wife and children back home.

Last year, he took Li Mingjin back alone. This year, Li Mingkang was a little older, and he could take him out after the package was packed, so he took him back to Jiang's house together.

It takes one or two hours to go back and forth. The time at Jiang's house is very happy and fast, and the second day of junior high school will pass quickly.

Before lying down to sleep, Li Mingjin silently recited a few words "dreaming, dreaming, dreaming".

This night, he did have a dream.

For the third time, he figured out why he ran so fast. He seemed to be riding on the back of an animal. He saw that the fur of this animal was very similar to the mule or donkey he had hitchhiked before.

After figuring this out, Li Mingjin's attention began to focus on the person who always attracted his attention, but he couldn't see clearly, no matter how hard he tried in his dream, he just couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, but He found that there was actually a little distance between the two of them, and that person was also riding on a mule or a donkey.

When he woke up in the morning, Li Mingjin wrinkled his nose. This dream was really strange. He hadn't said anything about it for three days in a row, and every day it made him know something more, which made his heart itch.

On the fourth night, Li Mingjin recited the dream many times silently. To his disappointment, he did have a dream that night, but it was not the dream of the previous three days, but a new dream, and the content of the dream not so good.

This dream has something to do with Li Erye's family. In the dream, because of Li Qiusheng's actions, Li Erye's house became a mess.

In a bad mood, Li Mingjin got up and was listless, and went to his mother: "Mother, I had a dream last night."

"Brother Jin?" Jiang Zhiyun seldom saw Li Mingjin wake up like this, especially after having a dream, he always ran to find her excitedly.

"My cousin was accused by two aunts of stealing food at home, and the two aunts clamored that they didn't want to live with my cousin anymore. They were worried that all their food would be eaten by my cousin secretly. Tanggu give me an explanation." Li Mingjin was not very happy when she said it.

"What's going on here?" Jiang Zhiyun always felt that this matter was not simple, otherwise Brother Jin wouldn't dream about it in advance.

"I don't know, but I believe that my cousin will not steal food. The two cousins ​​have wronged people." Li Mingjin stood firmly on his cousin's side and believed that his cousin would not steal food.

"Is there anything else in the dream?" Jiang Zhiyun asked Li Mingjin.

It is not easy to explain clearly the matter of stealing food from the family, because if two cousins ​​kill brother Qiu and say that brother Qiu stole food, there is no other person present, so there is no way to prove that Brother Qiu did not do it.

What's more troublesome is that if the two cousins ​​tell about this matter, people in Shanghe Village will definitely point out Li Qiusheng when they see him in the future, saying that he is a brother with dirty hands and feet, and his reputation will be ruined. It's ruined, what will Qiu Geer do when he gets married?

"Let me think about it again." Li Mingjin replied, when he just woke up, he was immersed in the discomfort of not having that dream, and he didn't carefully recall the new dream he had last night.

Li Mingjin recalled it again, and then he noticed that at the beginning of the dream, Li Qiusheng met Xing Langzhong, and Xing Langzhong gave Li Qiusheng a bulging bag.

Langzhong Xing promised to make ointment for Li Caoye before, and Li Mingjin dreamed that the bag Langzhong gave Li Qiusheng was filled with ointment, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was unlikely to be ointment, because the ointment would not be so big a bag.

"Mom, do you remember that I told you that my cousin and I dug a lot of herbs for Grandpa Xing. At that time, Grandpa Xing said that he was going to make ointment for his cousin. In the dream, Grandpa Xing didn't seem to give it. Cousin ointment, gave him a big bag of other things." Li Mingjin said the more his eyes brightened, "Is it possible that the things in the bag are food, cousin didn't steal food, he put the food quietly go in."

"This..." Jiang Zhiyun knew about the fact that the two little guys had secretly stockpiled herbs for Sister Caoye's medical treatment, because that day when Li Mingjin came back, she took the initiative to find her, told her that he had lied, and told the whole story.

However, Brother Jin's speculation just now and Jiang Zhiyun always felt unreliable. Since Langzhong Xing promised to make ointment for Sister Caoye, why would he give Brother Qiu a bag of food?

Recalling that in the dream, the two aunts swore that the cousin was a thief who stole food, Li Mingjin was very upset, and he pulled Jiang Zhiyun: "Mother, let's tell the truth quickly, so that the second grandpa and second grandma can tell the truth." I know my cousin didn’t steal food.”

Jiang Zhiyun frowned. First of all, no one except Langzhong Xing and Li Qiusheng knew whether the "truth" Jin Geer said was the truth. Secondly, who would believe this word? They were not like Brother Jin. The son can know it in a dream, and this incident has completely exposed the two cousins' dissatisfaction with Brother Qiu's mother and son, and it is actually very difficult to deal with.

Jiang Zhiyun comforted her son first: "Brother Jin, don't worry, I'll go to your grandma to discuss what to do, and see how I can prevent Brother Qiu from being misunderstood, okay?"

"Should I tell grandma over there?" Li Mingjin asked.

Mrs. Li can be said to be the person that the whole Second Grandpa Li's family is more afraid of, because in Li Mingjin's memory, his grandma has said that the second grandpa's family can't hold their heads up several times. Good choice, it is impossible for the two aunts not to listen to what his grandma said.

Jiang Zhiyun shook her head and said, "I'm going to discuss with your grandma, and it's up to your grandma to decide how to do it."

The old man Li and the second master Li have separated a long time ago. This matter is the housework of the second master Li's family. It is not a big deal. Now the head of the Li family, it's nothing for Mrs. Li to ask about the affairs of the second master Li's family.

Li Mingjin pouted: "Mother, remember to tell grandma that it wasn't the cousin who stole the food, but the cousin who quietly put the food in the house."

Jiang Zhiyun agreed, but after Li Mingjin thought about it, he decided to quietly follow his mother and listen to what his mother told her.

After hearing Jiang Zhiyun's retelling, Mrs. Li was furious: "What, there is such a thing!"

Jiang Zhiyun saw that Mrs. Li seemed to be about to rush out to the second uncle's house to find two cousins ​​to argue with, she quickly continued, "Mother, these are Brother Jin's guesses, he..."

Mrs. Li interrupted her: "What's the guess? Why don't you guess? My child eats some food from the family. How could he steal it? This is really disgusting. It's really thanks to the two of them who can say it. Pooh! Shameless, black-hearted Rotten-lung dog thing!"

A word awakened the person in the dream, Jiang Zhiyun was stunned for a moment, that's right, why is it that my child stole some food from the family?

Take Li’s family as an example, the old lady Li is in charge of the food in the first house and the third house. In the kitchen of Li’s house, there is usually a large bag of coarse grains such as corn, sweet potatoes, or taro, as well as a Small bags of fine grains are usually enough for everyone to eat for two to three days, so as not to have to carry grain out of the house every time you cook.

Most of the remaining grain was locked by Mrs. Li in the grain storage room or in the cellar. The food was locked not to protect the family, but to worry that outsiders would steal it or mice would eat the grain.

The food in the stove is free for everyone to eat. Like Li Mingkang and his two brothers, boys are more likely to be hungry. Before they go to the school in the county seat, they often burn food at noon after the fire in the stove goes out. A few small sweet potatoes were buried in the plant ash in the stove cavity, and let the remaining temperature cook the sweet potatoes to eat in the afternoon.

Isn't it natural for your own children to eat their own food?The men are busy outside, not just to feed the family.

Taking a step back, even if Li Qiusheng is really looking for food to eat, it only means that there is less food at home and he is not full. The two daughters-in-law of the Li family should reflect on themselves, and how could they blame Li Qiusheng? Steal food to eat?

He was led into a misunderstanding by Li Mingjin's dream before, after thinking about it, Jiang Zhiyun couldn't help but smile, and stopped stopping Old Madam Li.
