In the early 70s, the Northeast was a place of extreme scarcity. But most families have basically solved the problem of food and clothing. Lijiatun in Lingcheng, Liao Province, industrious and simple people, living an ordinary farm life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset.

The first family in Lijiatun, with three spacious brick houses, is in stark contrast to the other thatched houses in Tunli. This is the home of the richest man in the small mountain village, Li Baoguo. In fact, the richest man in that period was a 10,000-yuan household, which was definitely a local tyrant at that time.

45-year-old Li Baoguo, although he is the richest man in Tunli, he is an old-fashioned and kind-hearted person. The people of Tunli are almost responsive, so they are very popular among the locals. The only fly in the ointment is that Li Baoguo has no children under his knees, and his wife Zhang Caijuan gave birth to three daughters to him one after another. This is a big deal for Li Baoguo's father, Li Rui.

In those days, it was a very big deal for a family to have a son or not. Especially in the rural areas of the Great Northeast, the concept of preference for sons was particularly serious at that time.

Early one morning, Li Rui solemnly said to Li Baoguo: "Baoguo, you must go to Yangshugou today, pick up Mr. Yang, and ask him to put down what he has in advance and come to our house." ”

"Dad, is it for me and Caijuan to have a son? Don't worry about that, how old do you say Caijuan and I are, can we still have children?"

In fact, at that time, the medical conditions were relatively backward, and those in their 30s were already considered elderly pregnant women, not to mention that Zhang Caijuan was already 44 years old.

"If you want to go, you will go, to tell you the truth, I saved Mr. Yang's life before, and when your grandfather starved to death, I looked for him and showed you the cemetery. Li Rui continued. "Because I was hungry and scared at that time, I said to Mr. Yang, I must find one for your father, and bless our family with a good cemetery with food and money in the future. This shows that Mr. Yang is a person with great ability, this time you have to pick him up no matter what, I will let out this old face, and let him think of a way, not let our old Li family break off. If you don't go, I'll go by myself?"

"Hey, dad, don't go, you said you're so old, and you can't ride a foreign bike (bicycle). I'll go for it. "Li Baoguo also can't do anything about his father. Although he was reluctant, he still couldn't stand up to the old man.

"Don't say anything after you see Mr. Yang, just say that I miss him, just beckon him for a drink. ”

"Well, Daddy, I know. After saying that, Li Baoguo said hello to his wife, rode a flying pigeon brand foreign car, and ran to Yangshugou.

At noon, Li Baoguo finally picked up Mr. Yang. The Li family naturally slaughtered chickens and ducks, and put all the good things they could eat on the table. This meal was drunk from noon to sunset, even though the Northeast people drank very well, Li Rui and Mr. Yang were also drunk.

"Big brother, my Li family can have a good life today because of you!" Li Rui said with a smile while holding the wine bowl: "Come on, let's drink some more."

"Brother, let's not be polite, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be alive today. Fifty-year-old Mr. Yang replied with a smile. After speaking, the two of them picked up the wine bowl and touched it, and drank it all.

Mr. Yang has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his eyes are bright and shining. A big man of more than 1.8 meters, not fat or thin. From the inside out, it reveals shrewdness and capability. It gives people the feeling that, at a glance, they are not ordinary people.

Li Baoguo hurriedly picked up the wine barrel, filled it for the two of them, and asked curiously: "Dad, how did you save Mr. Yang back then?"

"When Mr. Yang and his father came to our tunli to see things, Mr. Yang was young and playful, so he secretly went to the river to take a bath. I didn't pay attention, slipped into the deep water, fluttered a few times and lost my energy, just as I passed by and rescued Mr. Yang. By the way, big brother, I mentioned Mr. Yang, can I ask you something?" Li Rui asked Mr. Yang with a smile.

"Brother, if you have anything, just ask. ”

"Speaking of your father, Mr. Yang, but our well-known Mr. Yin and Yang (mage), who is a person with real skills, you must have obtained his true inheritance, why do you never show things to others?"

"Hey, brother, you don't know. Speaking of this, Mr. Yang also said with a solemn face: "Those who learn from us are all guilty of five disadvantages and three shortcomings, the five disadvantages are widowhood, loneliness and disability, and the three shortcomings are money and life." The greater the skills learned, the more opportunities for leakage, and the more powerful the hedging. That's why I never look at other people. When I was young, because of lack of money, I went to other places to see things a few times. As a result, the man died early, and he didn't leave me a son and a half daughter. Don't say it, don't say it, come and have a drink with our brothers. ”

"Oh, I see. Li Rui lowered his head thoughtfully. After a while, I couldn't hold it anymore. "Big brother, is there a way to give birth to a son in the skills you have learned?" Li Rui then asked.

"Yes, but it depends on the situation." Mr. Yang replied without thinking.

"Then can you help Baoguo take a look and see what is going on with him?"

"Okay, brother, you can tell me about Baoguo's birthday. ”

After Li Rui reported Baoguo's birthday, Mr. Yang quickly clenched his palm. It is said that the palm of a person's hand corresponds to the 12 hours of the day. A normal person's finger knots, excluding the thumb, are exactly 12 knots, corresponding to Zi Chou Yin Mao Chen Si Wu Wei Shen Youxuhai.

Later, Mr. Yang frowned slightly and said to Li Rui: "Brother, there is some trouble in protecting the country, he was born without a son!"

"What's the solution?"

"Yes, yes, but ......" As soon as the words came out, Mr. Yang secretly regretted it in his heart.

"What's that method?" asked Li Rui.

"I don't have to say that. Mr. Yang said categorically.

Before Mr. Yang could finish speaking, he saw Li Rui suddenly plop and kneel on the ground. "Big brother, I beg you, as long as you can let Baoguo have a son, you are the great benefactor of our Li family. After speaking, he kowtowed to Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang hurriedly helped Li Rui up: "Brother, don't do this, it stands to reason that no matter what difficulties you have, I should help, but this matter is against the way of heaven and is an evil art that harms others and benefits oneself, if I help you do this, it will damage Yang Shou, and it will bring unwarranted disasters to your family!"

"Oh, the consequences are so serious, what is the specific method?" Li Rui asked without giving up.

"Borrowing, it can only be borrowed, because Baoguo is born without a son, you can only borrow other people's boys to come to your house to reincarnate, this is the only way to crack. ”

Li Baoguo was on the side, listening to the conversation between the two in the clouds, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart. He didn't believe that his wife could still have children, so he went to pick up Mr. Yang just out of filial piety to his father. "Filial piety is the obedience" has been a virtue of the Chinese people since ancient times!

"Dad, you see that you two didn't drink much today, why don't you rest early, what's going on when you wake up tomorrow?"

"Okay, then rest early. Li Rui also understood that this matter was urgent. So he asked his family to clean up the dining table and prepare to go to bed on the kang.

At that time, people in the Northeast slept on the fire kang. This large kang can not only be used for people to sleep at night, but also a powerful tool for heating in winter. "Two acres of land and a cow, children and wives are hot on the kang" is a true portrayal of Northeast people.

Li Rui is old, and he has been drinking a lot, and he will snore after a while. Mr. Yang was lying on the kang and tossing and turning, thinking to himself: "It's all because I have drunk too much wine and my mouth is fast, what if Li Rui is asking him to help Li Baoguo borrow a fetus to change his life? This Li Rui has the grace to save his life, and the ancients should repay him with a spring of water! How should he excuse himself? Borrowing a fetus is tantamount to hurting heaven and reason! It is really a dilemma on both sides, and it is not a matter of care, no matter what. ”

Suddenly, I thought of when I was young. With his ability to catch ghosts and subdue demons, he dominates the situation. Now in his fifties, he is lonely and helpless. When he dies, he dies, but Bai Yuezong has no successor? And his wife who died tragically for himself, Xiuru's great revenge has not yet been avenged? I really have no worries, can I look at Jiuquan?"
