Legend: Li Shao and his wife

In ancient times, a woman at home married her husband and taught her children, took care of her in-laws and mother-in-law, and her husband brought back a young woman from outside, and the woman was very fond of the woman's husband, and the woman was very sad, thinking that her husband hated her and planned to remarry, and finally hid in the house and secretly wept.

There is a place in Jiangnan called Chuzhou, which is remote. In the countryside of this prefecture, there is a family surnamed Li, the head of the family is named Li Shao, three generations of the same church, is a rare blessed family in the surrounding area.

Usually Li Shao works in the fields, and his wife washes and cooks at home, taking care of the elderly and children, although life is not rich, it is also happy.

This year, Li Shao consulted with his wife and prepared to reclaim another piece of land at the foot of the mountain to grow some grain, so as not to interrupt the family's grain when the harvest was not good. It is natural for a wife to be overjoyed to hear her husband say this.

Because of the heavy workload every day, the husband decided to bring some meals in the morning to solve lunch in the field, and to go home to go back and forth, which was a waste of time and a waste of energy. So the wife made a meal early every day and sent her husband out, waiting until dark to see her husband return. Every time he came back, the husband would tell his wife about the progress of the reclamation and some interesting things about the fields.

On this day, when the husband came back, he told his wife a strange thing, and at noon, when Li Shao was working in the field, he suddenly came in with a hare, his hair was white, and the hare was injured. Li Shao saw that he was pitiful and did not take it home, but instead bandaged its wound and put it under the tree, thinking that the rabbit would slip away by himself, even though the rabbit was still there when Li Shao finished the farm work in the field. Li Shao had no intention of taking it away and threw it into the mountains and forests, letting it find a way out for itself.

The wife also felt a little strange, it is reasonable to say that the rabbit saw the human and ran away, this rabbit does not run, and there is a little meaning of waiting next to it. However, neither of them thought much about it, and the days were repeated day by day.

After a long time, Li Shao finally reclaimed the field and planted grain. With crops, Li Shao stayed in the field every day, afraid of being ruined by the beasts that rushed out of the mountains and forests. The wife also understood Li Shao's hardships, and in order not to burden her husband, she arranged the family in an orderly manner.

One evening, his wife was cooking at home, and Li Shao returned from the field. When the wife heard that her husband had returned, she ran out to greet her with joy, but when he saw Li Shao, the whole person stayed, only to see that Li Shao had brought a young and beautiful woman back with her, and said to her wife: "This girl's name is Bai Yue, and she will live in our house from now on." ”

The wife listened to Li Shao's words and stood stupidly, answered, and then turned around and went back to the kitchen. At this time, the center of my wife's heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't help but think: Is it because my husband hates my face and plans to marry another one? Otherwise, how could he bring such a beautiful young woman back?

At night, the family sat at the table to eat, and the wife saw that her husband kept adding vegetables to Bai Yue, and Bai Yue also looked like a person who did not refuse. The wife left the table on the pretext of being full, and hid in the house alone and secretly wept.

Before going to bed, Li Shao wanted to take his wife into his arms, but his wife pushed her away: "You have such a young and beautiful woman, what are you going to do to hold me?" Li Shao burst out laughing: "Lady, are you angry about taking Bai Yue home for your husband?" ”

When his wife saw Li Shao talking about this topic, and laughed a lot, she couldn't help but be angry from her heart: "Are you still laughing?" Have you abandoned me and wanted to marry her again? ”

Li Shao saw that his wife was a little angry and stopped laughing. He asked doubtfully, "Why do you say that?" When the wife saw that Li Shao did not dare to answer head-on, she said with a cold mouth in her heart: "You not only let her live at home, but also kept picking vegetables for her when eating." ”

Li Shao's original laughter when he heard his wife's jealous words and began to laugh again: "Mother, it turns out that you are angry because of these, what are you thinking?" After saying that, Li Shao hugged his wife.

It turned out that this Bai Yue was met by Li Shao on the way home, and after hearing her say that she had not eaten for several days and had nowhere to go, Li Shao felt soft in her heart, feeling that such a young girl was inevitably in danger when she was alone outside, so he took her home and let her live first, and then let her leave when she had a place to go. Unexpectedly, this action of his own actually made his wife think that he wanted to marry Bai Yue as his wife.

The wife listened to her husband talk about the cause and effect, and constantly assured her in front of her, which dispelled her doubts, and the two returned to their sweet appearance. Since then, his wife no longer worries about Bai Yue's existence, and regards Bai Yue as a family member, taking care of Bai Yue every day.

Half a month later, Bai Yue said to Li Shao and his wife: "Big brother and sister-in-law, tomorrow I will leave, thank you for your care during this time, your home makes me feel very warm." Li Shao heard Bai Yue say that he was leaving, and said with some concern: "Do you have a place to go?" ”

Bai Yue listened to Li Shao's question and looked at the two with both eyes: "Big brother and sister-in-law, in fact, I lied to you at the beginning, I originally liked Li Shao's big brother to tell him so, but that night, I also heard your conversation, I can't destroy your happy family because of my own selfishness." Li Shao was surprised, he didn't know anything about this, he even stuttered a little, "You like me?" But we didn't come into contact with pressure before. ”

Bai Yue saw that he did not believe it, got up and shook, the White Yue in front of him disappeared, but there was a cute white rabbit in the room. The white rabbit opened his mouth and said, "Big brother, do you remember me not?" At this time, how Li Shao and his wife did not understand that Bai Yue was the rabbit they said was very strange at the beginning.

The next day, Bai Yue left Li Shao's house and returned to Shenlin, and before leaving, Li Shao and his wife recognized her as a sister and told her that no matter whenever they wanted, they could come at any time. Since then, Bai Yue has become a regular visitor to Li Shao's family, and every once in a while, Bai Yue will live in his home for a period of time, until Li Shao and his wife leave the world.

This story is the original "Li Shao and His Wife", the story tells us that the husband and wife must communicate in time, so as to avoid misunderstandings. In order to maintain family harmony, the trust between husband and wife is also very important, but too much suspicion of each other, to give enough respect and trust, so that our family can be more and more happy, in order to be blessed to enjoy the same church for three generations, four generations, or even five generations.
