Chapter 2: The Story of Marrying a Daughter-in-law
In Xiao Ming's memory, most of the stories his parents told him were themed on monsters marrying daughters-in-law, and the characteristics of this kind of story were concise and profound, which benefited a child a lot. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
One is that the cauliflower snake marries a daughter-in-law, which conveys more than just filial piety: according to legend, there was once a family with seven daughters, all of whom were as beautiful as flowers. In the season of mountain flowers, the seven daughters met to play in the suburbs, the wild scenery was so beautiful, they were so happy to play that they almost forgot to go home, and they did not notice that a thick cauliflower snake on the ancient tree not far away had stared at them.
Soon the sun set, and when the staff saw that their daughter had not returned, they took people out to look for it, maybe it was the father-daughter connection, but it was the old staff who found the daughter first. Unexpectedly, I just saw the figure of my daughters, and after shouting, I didn't have time to be happy, but I was in big trouble. The staff was old and frail, and had no power to fight back, so he was entangled by the cauliflower snake, and the cauliflower snake spat out:
"Uncle, marry one of your daughters to me as a man, and I will let you go back!"
Note: To be human means that a woman marries a man and becomes his wife.
The old man disagreed, the cauliflower snake became tighter and tighter, and the seven daughters were shocked and begged for mercy. The cauliflower snake proposed to them the conditions just now, and the women hesitated for a while, and their scalps were numb when they saw the old snake, let alone marry him.
At this time, seeing that the old man was pale and could lose his breath at any time, it was the youngest daughter who stood up first: "You let my father go, I'll go with you." ”
The cauliflower snake really relaxed a little, there was a lead, there was a second, a third, and every sister was unwilling to let Xiao Qi go. However, Xiao Qi's determination was firm, and in the end, under the reluctant eyes of the old staff and his sisters, Xiao Qi followed the cauliflower snake to the deep mountains.
When the family arrived, they had lost the trace of the cauliflower snake and Xiao Qi, and in the next three days, the old man had not slept at night, and he looked even more haggard, so he sent people to the deep mountains to find it, but there was no news, and under the persuasion of his daughters, he was dead.
However, a week later, Xiao Qi came back safely. The old staff and her sisters were overjoyed and found out when they asked.
It turned out that the cauliflower snake took Xiao Qi to a cave and prepared the cave room to spend the night of candles, but the clever Xiao Qi secretly wrote down the route, and on the surface of obedience to the cauliflower snake in the cave, it was actually a heart - he had to drink a glass of wine.
In order to win the favor of the beauty, the cauliflower snake naturally agreed, but Xiao Qi quietly put realgar powder in the wine. As a result, the cauliflower snake drank realgar wine and was subdued by Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi was able to escape!
The old staff and his sisters praised Xiao Qi's bravery and wit, and the story was handed down.

The second story is that the tiger marries a wife, which is too rigid and easy to break, and sometimes it may not be a good thing to compromise and seek perfection. According to legend, a long, long time ago, there was a mother and daughter who depended on each other, one day, they went up the mountain to chop wood, and met a tiger, and the tiger gave them two ways, one was to marry him, and the other was to be eaten by him.
The mother and daughter were angry, but behaved completely differently, the daughter put on a look of unyielding for the sake of honor, while the mother appeared very calm, quietly persuading her daughter not to be impulsive, while stabilizing the tiger and promising to marry him.
The tiger did not suspect it, so he took the mother and daughter back to their lair. Three days later, the mother begged the tiger to come home with them for dinner, saying that it was customary.
Tiger really went home with the mother and daughter, and at the dinner table, the mother kept urging him to drink, and the tiger soon got drunk. At this time, the mother used the red-hot iron block as a stool for the tiger to sit on, and the tiger was so hot that he screamed when he sat on it, and after rolling on the ground, he broke the door in embarrassment, and he was so frightened that he no longer dared to harass the mother and daughter!

Story 3: Snake Fighter, people can't do things too desperately, otherwise there will be karma.
Legend has it that a long time ago, when an old man was young, he made a living by catching snakes and fighting snakes, and was a well-deserved snake king in the local area. However, people are born, old, sick and die, and there are also misses, and snakes are extremely grudgeful.
The old man lived in the mountains, and when he was young, he shot a lot of snakes, and at that time he was young and vigorous, so the snakes that were caught did not dare to look for him, and after a few decades he was old, those snakes gradually came to him.
One day, he went to the market to buy and sell snake meat, and went home happily, thinking that he would be able to go home in the future, marry a wife, have children, and enjoy his old age in peace.
However, on the way home, he was surrounded by dense snakes. After a while, he was covered in snakes, and those snakes did not want to kill him directly, but did their best to make him uncomfortable. Some of them stretched out snake apricots on his face, eyes, ears, nostrils, and some into his clothes, making him uncomfortable......
I don't know how long later, an old lady who smoked passed by, and when she saw the old man of the snake king who was stunned by the snakes, her heart softened, so she used leaf smoke to drive the snakes away and saved him.
And he thanked the old woman for saving her life, and promised herself. In fact, snakes are afraid of the smell of leaf smoke, and after the last lesson, the old man began to be afraid of snakes, and even dreamed of the nightmare of a group of snakes, and the old woman who smoked was ugly and old, but she could guarantee his safety.
However, the old woman seems to be of no good use to the old man in addition to this, and can neither give him a succession nor give him a peaceful old age.
Of course, the old man has at least one wife at the end of the story, which can be regarded as a trace of mercy in retribution.

Story 4: The smart wife is a husband, according to legend, there is a couple in a peasant family, the husband is a little silly, and the wife dislikes; However, the husband still goes out early and returns late to work, wearing the stars and the moon, diligent, hard-working.
Very early in the day, the husband is called up by his wife to go to the field to do wild work, while she herself stays at home, and the estimated time is enough to cook for her husband. And when the husband came home from a day's work on the farm, he was already very satisfied with the food cooked by his wife, and then went into his humble room and slept beautifully.
As the days passed, the life of the husband and the wife remained the same, the husband did not complain anything, but the wife became more and more harsh on him.
One day, when the husband went to work in the field very early, a horseman passed by and saw that the humble husband was already digging hard in the field, and shouted:
"Dig the ground Lang Dig the ground Lang, how many thousand lines do you hoe down the ground?"
The humble husband didn't know why, so he dug the ground silently and didn't answer. The rider shook his head, sighed, and rode away.
Early the next morning, the horseback rider was still passing by, and when he saw her humble husband, he still shouted: "Dig the ground Lang Dig the ground Lang, how many lines do you hoe down the ground?" ”
Hanhan's husband stopped what he was doing, although he didn't know what he meant, and he didn't know how to answer, but he smiled at the horseman, didn't speak, and continued to dig the ground. The rider still sighed and rode away.
That night, when he got home, his humble husband asked his wife, "Wife, I met a man passing by on horseback this morning,......
Hearing her husband say the question of the horseman, the clever wife smiled: "You idiot, the next time you see that person, you ask him: Horse rider Horse rider, how many thousand times do you have your horse's feet?" If he asks any more questions, you can come back and tell me. ”
Early in the morning of the third day, the humble husband went down to work in the field, and sure enough, he met the horse rider again, but this time, the husband was not speechless, but asked rhetorically:
"Horseman Horseman, how many thousand times do you have your horse's feet?"
The horseman was stunned, obviously not believing that this simple man would answer so skillfully. So he asked, "You didn't come up with it, who told you?" ”
The simple man replied truthfully: "It was my daughter-in-law who told me." ”
"Okay, well, since your daughter-in-law is so smart, then I'll test her again, three days later, I will go to your house for dinner, I want a table that thousands of people can't lift, a bench that thousands of people can't lift, seventy-seven pairs of chopsticks, ninety-nine dishes, and human blood soup to make rice!"
As soon as the words fell, the simple man looked up and disappeared, and in the evening, he went home depressed. No matter what he thinks, he can't figure out what to do to meet the requirements of the rider. After dinner, he had to convey the horseman's words to his wife, but her eyes lit up and she smiled disapprovingly:
"If he wants to come, let him come, I have my own way."
After three days, the horseman appeared. The Han Han was at a loss and a little embarrassed, because he still didn't understand what his wife meant, even if he saw his wife's preparations.
I saw the wife guide the horseback rider to a large flat rock at the edge of the house, let him sit on the ground, and then serve the prepared meal to the table with her humble husband.
I saw that the table was a big stone that could not be carried by a thousand people, and the bench was the earth that could not be carried by ten thousand people; The chopsticks on the stone table are made of lacquer trees, and the so-called ninety-nine dishes are leeks, and the human blood soup and rice are red heart radish.
Seeing this, the horseman gave a thumbs up: "Hahahaha, smart, really smart!" ”
"Mr. has won the award, you come to the house as a guest, it won't be as simple as eating." The wife is as wise as a torch and goes straight to the point.
When the horse rider saw through his purpose, he no longer covered it up, but turned into a white-haired old man, and said with kind eyebrows:
"Meeting is fate, becoming a family is even more chance, the husband is not good is the marriage in the previous life, treat your husband well."
As soon as the words fell, the white-headed fairy had disappeared in front of the couple, and the smart wife was enlightened by the fairy, and finally stopped complaining about her husband's Han, and sincerely wanted to be a man with him. Since then, the couple has supported each other, the family is harmonious, and a year later, a baby has been added and a happy life has been lived.

Xiao Ming and Xiao Qiang are still children, and their parents tell them stories, always repeating them side by side, and where they don't understand, they will also ask and ask questions......
Until they fell asleep beautifully in the story of their parents and fell asleep......
At this time, Xiao Ming also walked into his own story world - dreaming, Xiao Ming in the dream has great powers and can fly, but he always can't fly high or far. When I woke up, I asked my parents:
"Dad, why do I fly when I'm dreaming?"
"Because you're getting bigger."
"Mom, why can't I always fly high?"
"Hehe, silly boy, you can't become a fat man by eating in one bite, and growing tall is a long process."
"Oh."
Every dream is a story, and each story has its own unique charm, which deeply attracts Xiao Ming, who dreams at night and always gets up late in the morning.
