The perfect life of rebirth

Mrs. Li's home is located in a village called Tasi about five miles southwest of Fenghuang Township, Shangyang County. There are about 300 households in the village, less than 6000 people.A village of this size can only be regarded as a medium-sized village in Fenghuang Township. In fact, the largest village in Fenghuang Township has more than [-] people.The reason why Tasi Village is called this name According to the old man, there used to be a temple with a lot of incense beside the reservoir on the west side of the village before liberation, and there was a pagoda built entirely of white stones in the temple.

Whenever it comes to this, the old man will say, "The Buddhist temple was demolished by the Japanese devils, and many monks were killed. Later, everyone fled and the temple disappeared. The evil Japanese devils."

Mrs. Li remembers that when he was very young, he went to work with his parents and passed by the reservoir in the west of the village. There were two or three white stone statues without heads lying on the side of the road. In the arms of the stone statue, wait for the parents to come from behind, and then walk forward together.Later, the stone statue disappeared, and someone took it away. Since then, the temple in Tasi Village has been completely washed away by the torrent of history. People can only remember it from the mouth of the old man and the name of the village The incense that once had its heyday.

In 1991, there was no road from Fenghuang Township Middle School to Tasi Village. The road connecting the two was a rugged dirt road. Whenever it rained, the road would be covered with mud and it was impossible to drive. Fortunately, the weather these days Yes, there is no mud on the road, only dust.Along the way, Mrs. Li ignored the bumps of the dirt road and drove the bicycle very fast. He felt like returning home, eager to go home and see his father and mother.

At the entrance of the village, Mrs. Li slowed down the speed of the car, and suddenly felt a sense of homelessness. She was afraid to go home, but found that everything was illusory and a dream.

"Little husband is back?" When passing by his uncle's house, the eldest aunt who was sitting behind the house and eating with a bowl saw Li's husband and said with a smile.

"Ah, ma'am is eating." Mrs. Li said hello and hurried over.

Mrs. Li's home is on a street to the south of the village. It is a typical small courtyard in the countryside. The gate of the courtyard is in the southwest corner of the courtyard. A blue brick one-story house, which was built by Mrs. Li’s grandfather in 71. It is already a little dilapidated. It was used as a kitchen by Mrs. Li’s mother to cook in it. To the west of the courtyard is a row of shacks containing various Sundries and farm tools, and another one is a barn, and Mrs. Li's family keeps mules used for farm work.

Mrs. Li rode a bicycle to the door of his house. After getting off the car, he pinched his arm hard to make sure that he was not dreaming, and then pushed the bicycle into the yard.

"Father, Mom, I'm back." Mrs. Li called out.

"Why do you think of going home today? Didn't your father tell you to study hard at school? You ran home after you failed a grade yesterday. Be careful that your father will beat you when he comes back." Mom's voice came from the kitchen in the east room. .

"I want to go home and have a look. I won't come back in the afternoon, and I won't come back until Saturday afternoon." Mrs. Li tied the bicycle in the yard and went into the kitchen.

"Mom." Mrs. Li called out.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Li's mother, Liu Zhen, put down the dishes she was choosing and turned around to ask.

Looking at her mother's teenage-younger face and her shiny black hair, Mrs. Li thought of her mother's over-sorrow because of her father's death before she was reborn, as well as her old face and full hair worn down by the huge pressure of life. The silver thread in my heart felt sour for a while.Mrs. Li walked up to her mother, hugged her tightly, and called again: "Mom."

"Little husband, what's the matter with you, have you been wronged outside?" Liu Zhen asked nervously, having never seen her son like this before.

"It's nothing, I just learned a text about maternal love at school this morning, and I want to come back to see you, by the way, where is my father, why isn't it home?" Mrs. Li hurriedly diverted her mother's attention.

"Your father has gone to your uncle's house, and he will be back in a while." Mrs. Li's mother replied.

Uncle Gui's full name is Li Gui. He was a good friend of Mrs. Li's father during his lifetime. He is the only village doctor in Tasi Village. Respect.

"Brother is back?" A child's voice came from outside the door, it was Mrs. Li's third brother Li Ming.

Mrs. Li has two younger brothers. The eldest brother Li Qiang is in the fifth grade of elementary school, and the third brother Li Ming is in the second grade of elementary school. The relationship between the three brothers has always been very good.

"Just came back, it's been less than 2 minutes, where's your second brother?" Mrs. Li asked.

"It's in the north room." Li Ming walked into the room and replied.

"The third son came to help mother choose vegetables, and today I will cook." Mrs. Li said.

"Don't mess around, when will you know how to cook?" Liu Zhen asked Mrs. Li.

"I study in books. My classmate has a book on home cooking. I borrowed it to read it today. I just found a chance to practice it." Mrs. Li made a random excuse. "Can you learn how to cook by reading this book?" Liu Zhen expressed doubts about her son's attitude.

"Don't worry, I'm sure I can do it." Mrs. Li said in a very sure tone. Before she was reborn, Mrs. Li lived alone in the provincial capital for a long time. question.

"Well, today I will try my son's craft." Seeing her son's insistence, Liu Zhen said with a smile without further questioning.

"Today I ate the dishes cooked by elder brother." Li Ming cheered, and squatted down to choose dishes with his mother and elder brother.

About 10 minutes later, a smell came from the kitchen. Mrs. Li scrambled a tomato and egg, and stewed a large pot of mixed vegetables, enough to feed a family of five.

"It's really fragrant." Li Qiang also came to the kitchen from the north room when he smelled the fragrance.

"Daughter-in-law, when did your cooking become so good?" Mrs. Li's father's characteristic loud voice came from outside the door.

"Father." Mrs. Li walked out of the kitchen quickly, her heart beating uncontrollably.

As soon as Mrs. Li walked out of the kitchen, she saw her father walking in through the door. Looking at the face that had been sealed in her memory for nearly 20 years, Mrs. Li lost control of her emotions.

"Father." Mrs. Li called out, wanting to rush forward, but held back forcefully. He reacted a little too much when he saw his mother just now. If he rushed forward again, everyone would be able to see his abnormality.

"Calm down, calm down." Mrs. Li said secretly, standing at the door of the kitchen and staring blankly at his father walking towards him.

"Little husband, why are you back? Didn't you let you study at school with peace of mind? What can you do if you go home?" Li Jianguo looked at his son standing at the door of the kitchen and said with a frown.

"Okay, my sons are back, they beat me up yesterday, so don't talk about it anymore." Liu Zhen blamed her husband.

"Okay, okay, but this time I must fight hard. I have worked hard to make you repeat the grade. If you don't study hard, be careful that I will beat you again." Li Jianguo said as he walked to the kitchen.

"Understood Dad, this time I will be upbeat and not mischievous, and I will get you the first place in the mid-term exam." Li said to his father with a smile. In the previous life, Li was a little afraid of his father, but now only It's time for family affection.

Li Jianguo looked at Mrs. Li, and felt that Mrs. Li was a little different from before, and he couldn't tell what was different for a while, it was a bit weird anyway.

"If you can take the No.1 exam, I will give you a big reward. Let alone, I could smell the aroma from a long distance just now. Look at what your mother cooked. It smells so delicious, haha." Li Jianguo said with a smile.

"The dishes are fried by my husband, I just choose the vegetables and roll out the noodles." Liu Zhen corrected.

"Really? My husband and wife have grown up, when did they learn how to cook?" Li Jianguo asked in surprise.

"Hehe, I learned it from books." Mrs. Li scratched her head and smiled.

"That's right, daughter-in-law, let's get down to the noodles. It's time to eat. Sons, grab a bowl and wait for the noodles to eat." Li Jianguo said happily.

"What does Lao Gui say?" Liu Zhen asked while waiting for the noodles to cook, putting the noodles into the pot.

"It's nothing serious, just a bit of enteritis, just take some medicine." Li Jianguo replied.

"Boom!" A loud noise interrupted the conversation between the husband and wife, and when they turned their heads, they found Mrs. Li's face was pale, and the bowl in his hand fell to the ground and broke.

"Little wife, what's the matter with you?" Liu Zhen asked quickly.

"Ah, it's nothing. I didn't hold the bowl properly just now and broke it. I'll go get a broom and clean it." Mrs. Li hurried out.

At this time, Mrs. Li felt that her hands and feet were cold, and the damn hand of death was about to reach out to her father. Mrs. Li remembered that his father felt uncomfortable in his stomach at this time in his previous life. It didn't get enough attention. It wasn't until a year later, when Mrs. Li was in the third grade of junior high school, that it was found to be bowel cancer after an examination, but it was already at an advanced stage and there was no cure.

"Damn it." Mrs. Li punched the tree in the yard, and immediately blood flowed out.

The severe pain made Mrs. Li calm down, and carefully recalled the past life. Mrs. Li remembered that in September 92, the doctor in the hospital seemed to have said that if the disease was discovered three months earlier, the disease could be cured completely. .Today is only September of 9. If my father went to the hospital for examination and found out early, he could be cured completely.

Mrs. Li took the broom from the door and went back to the kitchen, sweeping the broken bowl outside the door.

"Ah, why is your hand broken? Jianguo, hurry up and get some iodine and gauze to wrap it for your son." Liu Zhen said nervously when she noticed that Mrs. Li's hand was bleeding.

"Why are you so careless, and what happened just now?" Li Jianguo said something, then went out to the north room to get anti-inflammatory drugs, iodine and gauze, and wrapped Li's wound up.Since Li Jianguo is an excellent veterinarian and has a friend who is a country doctor, the family does not lack these things.

"Little husband, does it hurt?" Liu Zhen asked distressedly.

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore." Mrs. Li replied.

"Dad, did you go to see a doctor at your uncle's house just now?" Mrs. Li asked, trying to make her tone appear normal.

"It's just that my stomach feels a little uncomfortable these days. I got some medicine myself. After taking it for a few days, it didn't work. I went to your uncle to see what happened to you just now. Why do I feel that you are a little different this time? .” Li Jianguo said.

"I went to class 21 yesterday, and I heard something happened at the home of a classmate in our class. Let me tell you about it." Mrs. Li didn't answer directly, but was thinking about how to persuade her father to go to the hospital in Shangyang for an examination. After all, it was a bit of a fuss to go to the city for an examination because of a simple enteritis. I guess my father would definitely not agree to it.

"What's the matter?" Li Jianguo's attention was successfully diverted.

"There is a classmate in our class whose father also felt stomach pain last year. He didn't pay attention to it at first. He treated it for enteritis, but later found that it was not cured, and it became more and more serious. There was no other way, so he had to go to the hospital for an examination. It turned out that he had cancer. It's late, and he just passed away last month." Li Kang edited.

"Crack." Li Jianguo patted Mrs. Li on the head.

"What are you talking about, did anyone curse your father like that?" Li Jianguo said with a smile.

"This is true." Mrs. Li argued.

"Let's eat, your father and I are in good health." Li Jianguo said, after such a fuss, the noodles were cooked.

"Okay, but Dad, you'd better go to the hospital for an examination and rest assured." Mrs. Li did not give up.

"Jianguo, if it doesn't work, go check it out. Anyway, you will go to the city to get medicine in two days, and check it out by the way. I also feel a little worried after hearing what my husband said." Liu Zhen said to her husband.

"Okay, this Sunday I'll go to get some medicine, and I'll have a check-up by the way, so you can rest assured." Li Jianguo smiled.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Li heaved a long sigh of relief.

"It's time to eat, come and try the dishes I cooked today. Father, mother, Xiaoqiang, and the third son, bring your bowls and I'll get you noodles." Mrs. Li said in a good mood.

The family sat at the table happily and had lunch. Even the flower magpie on the tree outside seemed to be infected by the atmosphere in the house, and cried happily.

After eating, Mrs. Li rode his bicycle back to school, and it would be Saturday afternoon before he could go home again.
