Folk stories (daughter-in-law struck by lightning)


Once in a village, there was a daughter-in-law who was very filial to her mother-in-law. The aunts and aunts in the village praised that their wives were like mothers and daughters, and the old sisters envied the old lady getting married. A good daughter-in-law, naturally the old lady enjoys the happiness of her old age every day. Since the daughter-in-law arrived at the old lady’s house a few years ago, she gave birth to a fat grandson. This spring, the daughter-in-law gave birth to a granddaughter to the old lady. The wife looked at her busy daughter-in-law all day and felt very distressed. She always tried every means to help her daughter-in-law with some housework to relieve her burden, but the daughter-in-law was always afraid that her mother-in-law would be tired and would not ask the old lady to work. , The two mothers respect and love each other and live in endless joy.

But the weather is unpredictable, and people will have good fortune. The old lady just fell into the summer but got a serious illness lying on the kang and couldn't get up. This time she was exhausted and her daughter-in-law was exhausted. The daughter-in-law not only has to take good care of the mother-in-law who is lying on the kang, but also raise two ignorant children. The old lady is even more angry when she looks at the thin daughter-in-law, but this way the old lady’s illness will not only disappear. Fortunately, it has aggravated a lot. Although the daughter-in-law was relieved to the old lady every day, the old lady's mind was not opened. Gradually, the throat of the old lady became swollen. In the end, she couldn't even eat the porridge. The daughter-in-law looked weak day by day. My mother-in-law is anxious somehow.

In the past few days, my daughter-in-law looked very sad when she watched her mother-in-law swallow porridge with her swollen throat. She asked the doctor if there is any way to make her mother-in-law eat full without suffering. The doctor looked at the child in the arms of the daughter-in-law and her bulging chest and said: "In fact, the food you give your child is the best supplement for the old lady, and it is also the best medicine for reducing swelling and pain." The daughter-in-law understood what the doctor said. She did not hesitate to put the child aside and squeeze her mother-in-law with her hands. At first, the old lady refused to eat, and only swallowed it bit by bit after the doctor's persuasion.

However, because the daughter-in-law has been on fire these days to take care of the old and the young, the child is not eating enough, and feeding the old lady is not enough. In order to make the mother-in-law’s illness get better as soon as possible , The daughter-in-law killed the old hen at home to make the soup and finally filled the belly of the mother.

After a few days, the old lady's illness gradually improved.Not only can I sleep soundly at night, but sometimes I can sleep for a while at noon, and the swollen throat has also begun to disappear. From the beginning, the daughter-in-law squeezed her hand to feed the old lady, and the old lady has the strength to suck with her mouth these days. Yes, now the daughter-in-law can save some energy when feeding the old lady. The daughter-in-law watched her mother-in-law get better day by day, and finally let go of her hanging heart.

One day at noon the old lady was going to go to bed at noon. The daughter-in-law was afraid that the mother-in-law would be hungry when she went to bed. She fed the old lady again before the old lady went to bed. As a result, the old lady was also sleepy while eating. She knocked her head and hands. Shivering put her hand on the shoulder of her mother-in-law, as if she was eating with her arm. At this moment, a thunder suddenly struck in the sunny sky, and a lightning bolt came in from the window and hit the daughter-in-law’s head. The daughter-in-law's head hit two halves of blood scattered on the old lady's face. The daughter-in-law died beside her mother-in-law without saying a word, and there was a pouring rain in the sky. This time, the old lady's heart was broken. She took her daughter-in-law's body and burst into tears with a grinning throat: "Old lady, why are you not so long-eyed? How can you chop my filial daughter-in-law to death, you But how can I make this dying old woman live?"

The old lady’s cries disturbed the neighbors, and the villagers ran over in the rain to see what happened. Some elderly people listened to the old lady’s. Introduced, when I left the house, I whispered to the folks: "Ah! The old lady and daughter-in-law hugged her when feeding her. She can hug her mother-in-law as her own child. The daughter-in-law was struck by lightning. Dead, it seems that no matter how filial the younger generations act, they can’t deceive their elders.” The villagers shook their heads after hearing this, expressing their regrets for this daughter-in-law, but the situation has developed to such a level that they are uncomfortable. There is no way that everyone can only help with the funeral.

Just a few days after the old lady’s daughter-in-law was buried, all kinds of flowers grew on and around her new grave. The flowers were very dazzling red. The villagers said, "God is in praise of the old lady. The daughter-in-law’s filial piety gave her special treatment and turned her into a flower god.” It didn’t take long for the old lady’s son to marry another beautiful daughter-in-law.
