The son of the Li family, named Li Hao, is a learned young man who doesn't believe in those superstitious things. He always advised Xiu'e not to believe in that, and to rely on her own hands to get rich through hard work. But Xiu'e didn't listen, thinking that Li Hao could only read and didn't understand the difficulties of life.
Once, Xiu'e came back from the temple and brought a prophecy from a Taoist priest, saying that the Li family was going to suffer a great disaster and had to follow his method to escape. Xiu'e was so frightened that her face turned white, and she quickly told Li Hao. When Li Hao heard this, he frowned, knowing that this was a trick of charlatans, but looking at Xiu'e's panicked appearance, he couldn't bear to talk about her. So, he thought of a way to not only break superstition, but also reassure Xiu'e.
Li Hao pondered for a while and finally came up with an idea. He told Xiu'e that he had consulted a master and had a way to solve the disaster. When Xiu'e heard this, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked what the method was. Li Hao said: "The master said that we should set up a magic circle at home, use our sincerity to influence the gods and Buddhas, and let them bless us." When Xiu'e heard this, she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and hurriedly asked how to try to fight.
Li Hao said: "This magic circle has to use some special things, red silk cloth, multicolored threads, and a piece of talisman paper with the name of our whole family written on it." I'm ready for all of this. If you do what I say, you will be able to defuse the disaster. Xiu'e listened, nodded in agreement, and her heart was full of hope.
A few days later, Li Haozhen brought all those things back. He asked Xiu'e to set up a magic circle at home according to his instructions. The circle looked quite mysterious, with red silk cloth in a circle, multicolored threads winding around, and a rune paper with the name of the whole family written in the middle. Xiu'e was stunned, and her heart was both respectful and afraid.
After the circle was set up, Li Hao told Xiu'e again: "From now on, you have to pray sincerely here every day, and tell the gods and Buddhas about our wishes and sincerity." As long as we are sincere, we will definitely be able to influence the gods and Buddhas and let them bless us. When Xiu'e heard this, she prayed in front of this circle every day, hoping that the gods and Buddhas could hear her heart. Xiu'e listened to Li Hao's words, and her head nodded like a rattle. She had to go to the other end of the circle every morning and evening, clasping her hands together and meditating in her heart. Although she didn't know the bottom in her heart, this trick didn't work, but she believed in Li Hao and believed that their sincerity could move heaven and earth. The days just slipped away like this, and Xiu'e's prayers became her daily routine and a part of her life. As for Li Hao, he secretly observed Xiu'e and watched her change day by day. He found that as time went by, Xiu'e became more and more indifferent to those feudal superstitions, and she began to focus on real life. She no longer worries about natural and man-made disasters all day long, but begins to bravely face the ups and downs in life. Looking at Xiu'e's changes, Li Hao's heart blossomed, and he knew that his plan had begun to bear fruit. He believes that as long as he continues to do this, Xiu'e will definitely be able to completely get rid of the shackles of those superstitions and live a happier life.
Ever since Xiu'e began to pray sincerely, the circle seemed to be a little magical. The wind and rain in the town are smooth, and the life of the Li family is getting better day by day. There was more smile on Xiu'e's face, less sorrow, and more confidence and calmness. On this day, a Taoist priest who traveled around came to Qingyun Town, claiming to be able to see the heavens and predict the future. As soon as he walked to the door of Li's house, he saw the magic circle and frowned. The Taoist priest entered the door and said to Xiu'e: "This female benefactor, although your family's magic circle can keep you safe for a while, it is not a long-term solution. Do you know that if this circle is not blessed by the true gods, it will become invalid sooner or later, and when disaster comes, it will be unstoppable. When Xiu'e heard this, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked the Taoist priest to solve it. The Taoist priest pretended to touch his beard and said slowly: "To solve this calamity, you have to be sincere, in the name of the true god, to try to re-array, and you have to offer incense for 7749 days to dissolve it." When Xiu'e heard that she was going to set up a new formation, and she had to offer incense, she muttered a little in her heart. She looked at Li Hao, only to see Li Hao smiling slightly, and said to the Taoist priest: "The Taoist is right, but how do we ordinary people know how to set up a formation in the name of the true god?" Please also ask the Taoist chief for some advice. Seeing that Li Hao was so respectful, the Taoist priest was proud, so he talked in detail about how to set up a formation and how to offer incense. Xiu'e listened fascinated, as if she had found a life-saving straw. But Li Hao already had a plan in his heart, and he remained silent. When the Taoist priest left, Li Hao said to Xiu'e: "Xiu'e, the Taoist priest's words sound like that, but we have to figure out our own way." This matter of setting up a circle to worship incense is too troublesome and may not be useful. In my opinion, we still have to rely on ourselves and our hard-working hands to create a happy life. Xiu'e listened to Li Hao's words, although she was still a little hesitant in her heart, but she also felt quite reasonable. She pondered for a while before she spoke: "Brother Hao, the two of us have been in the wind and rain all these years, and we have come and gone, aren't we all working hard with one hand and one foot." This time, we're sure we'll be able to get through it! So, Li Hao and Xiu'e hit it off and decided to stop believing in those things that the gods were talking about, and to rely on their own hands to work hard for a good life. They began to redouble their efforts, farming, raising chickens, raising fish... Nothing is left behind. I go out before dawn every day, and I don't go home until dark, although I am tired like something, but my heart is steady.
The days passed day by day, and the life of the Li family slowly became prosperous. The food at home is piled up like a hill, and there is no shortage of chickens, ducks, fish and meat. The smile on Xiu'e's face also returned, and she no longer worried about it all day long as she used to, but began to enjoy this wonderful life. The Taoist priest's nonsense gradually disappeared from her mind as time passed. She slowly understood that true happiness is not obtained by worshipping God and seeking Buddha, but by earning it with her own hands.
One day, the people of the town suddenly got together and talked about it. It turned out that the Taoist priest who was swaggering and deceiving everywhere was arrested by the government for deceiving the people and defrauding money. Only then did people suddenly realize that what the Taoist priest said was some deceitful nonsense. When Xiu'e heard the news, she was so happy in her heart. She was glad that she was not confused by the words of the Taoist priest, and she was glad that she chose to trust her hands. She looked at the busy Li Hao around her and the hard-working chickens, ducks, fish and geese at home, and her heart was full of gratitude and happiness.
Since then, Xiu'e has completely got rid of the shackles of feudal superstition and has become a hard-working, kind and confident peasant girl. Together with Li Hao, she ran the family business vigorously, and the days became more and more prosperous. Under their influence, their children have grown up healthily and become good children with knowledge and moral character. And the prophecy of the magic circle and Taoist priest that once made Xiu'e deeply believe was gradually forgotten by everyone with the passage of time. The Li family's small life is prosperous, and every day is full of hope and happiness.
This is the story of the pretty daughter-in-law Xiu'e and her husband Li Hao. They used their diligence and wisdom to break the shackles of feudal superstition and create a beautiful life of their own. Their stories teach us that we must believe in our own hands and in the power of hard work and wisdom, and only then can we live a truly happy and fulfilling life.
Hearing the news of the Taoist priest's arrest, Xiu'e felt so happy in her heart, she patted her chest and said to Li Hao: "Brother Hao, why is our luck so good?" I was almost fooled by the Taoist priest. Li Hao shook his head with a smile and said, "What luck is not lucky, we know it in our own hearts." That Taoist priest only dared to fool you when he saw that you had a pimple in your heart. In these days, we have to rely on our own hands to earn, how can we let those gods and ghosts be mixed up. After listening to Li Hao's words, Xiu'e felt very reasonable, and her mood calmed down a lot. She looked at Li Hao's busy figure, and felt warm in her heart. This man, not only handsome in appearance, but also smart and capable, is undoubtedly the wisest choice in her life. Time flies, and autumn is coming in the blink of an eye. The paddy in the fields sparkled with gold, like a thick golden carpet. Xiu'e and Li Hao are busy harvesting, although it is hard, but their hearts are full of joy. They understand that the hard work of the year will finally pay off.
After discussing with Xiu'e, Li Hao and Xiu'e decided to take the family's surplus grain to the town and sell it in exchange for some money to buy new clothes and prepare items for the New Year for the children. After hearing this, Xiu'e clapped her hands excitedly and said that she would start preparing immediately. The next day, they went to town with food. The market in the town is bustling with people coming and going. They found a good spot and put the grain out. Soon, someone came up and asked for the price. A plainly dressed man asked, "How do you sell this rice?" Xiu'e replied enthusiastically: "Big brother, look at it, these rice grains are all grown by ourselves, and they are very fresh." Dahan looked at the rice carefully, then at Xiu'e and Li Hao, and said, "Okay, I see that it is not easy for you, so I will give you a fair price." With that, he pulled out his wallet. In this way, in less than a morning, all their food was sold out. Xiu'e counted the banknotes in her hand and smiled from ear to ear. She said to Li Hao: "Brother Hao, looking at our current life, it is really getting more and more hopeful. Li Hao also smiled and responded: "That's right, this is all the result of our own efforts." In the future, we will continue to work hard to make our lives more prosperous. "
After returning home, Xiu'e and Li Hao began to busily prepare New Year's goods. They bought new clothes, new shoes, new quilts, and lots of delicious food. Looking at the piles of items at home, Xiu'e was extremely happy. On the day of the Chinese New Year, the Li family was full of laughter. Friends and family gather together to share a reunion dinner and talk about family life. Xiu'e looked at all this and felt a lot of emotion in her heart. She thinks back to the days when she was always worried and felt like there was no end to life. But now, she feels as if she has been renewed, and her heart is full of hope and happiness.
As night falls, the guests disperse. Xiu'e and Li Hao sat by the warm fire, chatting. Xiu'e asked, "Brother Hao, why do you say our lives are so good?" Li Hao replied with a smile: "Our days are earned by our own hands. As long as we are willing to work hard and endure hardships, life will get better and better. Xiu'e nodded in agreement and said, "You're right. Over the years, we have worked together and struggled together to have today's happy life. "Oh, we have to work harder to make this little day more and more prosperous." The two of them looked at it and were happy. The firelight made their faces warm, as happy as something. Since then, Xiu'e and Li Hao, the little couple, have lived a sweet and sweet life. They worked hard and worked hard together to keep their homes in order. The children also thrived and became good seedlings of knowledge and conduct. Xiu'e used to believe in those feudal superstitions and Taoist prophecies, but as time went by, everyone slowly forgot about them. The life of the Li family is still so prosperous, and every day is full of hope and happiness. This is the story of our pretty daughter-in-law Xiu'e and her husband Li Hao in Nagada, Northeast China. With their own hands and wisdom, they broke the shackles of feudal superstition and created their own happy little days. Their stories tell us that we have to believe in our own hands, in the power of hard work and wisdom, so that we can live a truly happy and fulfilling life. In our land full of Northeast style, such stories are still being staged, conveying the power of diligence and wisdom.
